@mattklewis It's inside the state, Matt. Is it different in Maryland? I know in NY the Gov can so long as it's inside state lines. -
@JazzShaw I don't know. It sounds like he couldn't act until he received a formal request from the mayor. But not sure... -
@mattklewis Good point. We should check. I know NY Gov sent them to Buffalo in 96 without being asked for natural disaster

@mattklewis@JazzShaw I believe that is correct - needs to be requested by Mayor -
@BDayspring@mattklewis@JazzShaw I don't think that's right, but issuing a Declaration w/out Maryor's concurrence prob unworkable also.
