Legislator Sauerbrey was elected to the Tioga County Legislature in 2005 and this year marks her twelfth consecutive year serving as the Chair of the Tioga County Legislature. Legislator Tracy Monell was elected to the Tioga County Legislature in 2009 and was elected to serve

The Legislature welcomed and swore in newly elected Legislator Ray Bunce, District 6 for his threeyear term of office commencing January 1, 2025. Legislative Chairwoman Sauerbrey commented, “Thank you for your support. I am blessed to work for the Tioga County Legislature for twenty years noting it has been a challenging and rewarding experience. Throughout my tenure, the County has experienced difficult and almost tragic events with a flood, COVID-19, etc., but we survived it all and worked together for the good of the County. I am very appreciative of the support of the community that believed in me and voted for me so I could stand in this position for many years. I am very optimistic that with our County Administrator on board, we will be running more efficiently. I look forward to continued teamwork as we move forward into 2025.”
