Assemblyman Mike Spano, D-Yonkers, has asked Gov. David Paterson for  for a disaster zone declaration in response to this weekend’s wild storm.

“If Yonkers is declared a disaster zone, the city could apply to receive needed aid from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to ease the devastating affects of this storm,” Spano said. “These funds would go a long way to help Yonkers recover quickly.”
