Do we want to put the future of the City of Coatesville in the hands of this person?
Are we going to let the Coatesville City Council do just that on Monday night?
Just in case anyone has any doubts that the disbarred Attorney Leslie Smallwood and the owner of Mosaic Development Partners is not one and the same person.
Follow the trail:
From the Daily Local News:
“During the meeting, Smallwood-Lewis and Reaves referenced big projects they previously worked on with people such as Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter. But those projects were not handled by Mosaic; the projects were done while at their previous employer, the Goldenberg Group.”

I would like to see someone do a background check on the candidates for City Council. I am sure all of them have made some mistakes in their life. This is a good company. Instead of trying to smear their name perhaps people should argue the merits of the proposal!
