Dec. 2—State Sen. David G. Argall, R-29, will soon open offices in Carbon and Luzerne counties in an effort to better represent the newly redrawn 29th district.

Argall also recently hired two staff members of former state Sen. John Yudichak — Brad Hurley and Bill Richards — to lead his constituent relations.

"I'd like to thank Sen. John Yudichak for his time serving all of us and his help with the transition throughout the past several months," Argall said in a statement. "His guidance and the collective knowledge and experience of Brad and Bill has been invaluable throughout this process."

Argall will share an office with Rep. Doyle Heffley, R-122, at 204B Bridge St., in Weissport. His Luzerne County office will soon be located in downtown Hazleton and will be shared with Rep.-Elect Dane Watro, R-11 6.

Districts for both chambers of the state legislature officially changed across Pennsylvania in accordance with the new maps drawn by the Legislative Reapportionment Commission earlier this year.

The 29th district now includes all of Schuylkill and Carbon counties and parts of Luzerne County, including the city of Hazleton; the boroughs of Bear Creek Village, Freeland, Jeddo, Penn Lake Park, West Hazleton and White Haven; and the townships of Bear Creek, Buck, Dennison, Foster and Hazle.
