Another Pa. County Looks To Borrow Philly Foreclosure Diversion Plan To Keep Local Homeowners In Place

In Delaware County, Pennsylvania, The Daily Times reports:

• Delaware County Sheriff Joseph McGinn is hoping to have a program in place by the beginning of next year to help countians in owner-occupied residences find a solution that will aid them in staying in their homes and avoid foreclosures during these difficult financial times. McGinn made his comments Friday after a handful of activists from the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) were outside the courthouse, led by Leah Sheppard, who charged that McGinn has been unresponsive to the group’s plea to have a moratorium on all sheriff sales.
