Welcome to the Coatesville Dems Blog

Public Corruption in Chester County, PA

I believe an unlikely mix of alleged drug trafficking related politicos and alleged white nationalist related politicos united to elect the infamous “Bloc of Four” in the abysmal voter turnout election of 2005. During their four year term the drug business was good again and white nationalists used Coatesville as an example on white supremacist websites like “Stormfront”. Strong community organization and support from law enforcement, in particular Chester County District Attorney Joseph W. Carroll has begun to turn our community around. The Chester County drug trafficking that I believe centers on Coatesville continues and I believe we still have public officials in place that profit from the drug sales. But the people here are amazing and continue to work against the odds to make Coatesville a good place to live.

Office Hotel Complex on 1st Avenue (Rt 82) in Coatesville "on hold"

"Elsewhere, things are slow. Oliver Tyrone Pulver Corp.'s planned Seven Tower Bridge in West Conshohocken, and its hotel and office complex in Coatesville, are 'on hold' and waiting for more financing, according to Barilotti."

    It's not exactly a surprise. Construction projects and grants have deadlines. Pulver Corp. knew that because of the economy, it probably would not be able to begin construction this year. They needed finial conditional approval because the grants would have expired soon. If the lending situation improves enough to begin construction and the grants had expired, years would go by until the hotel plan would be back to where it is now.

    There is still a market for condo and townhouse new construction. If the builder can get financing he can sell the units. The banks are not lending. They seem content to make their profits on credit cards.

    I think the best hope for Coatesville is financing through Federal stimulus money funneled through the Commonwealth.
