Coatesville Dems: Should Coatesville City Council member’s cell phone numbers be local exchange numbers?

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.

Should Coatesville City Council member’s cell phone numbers be local exchange numbers?

Mrs. Jones wants the Coatesville City Council’s cell phones that are issued to all Coatesville residents to have local Coatesville area numbers.

I have found that many Coatesville residents on a fixed income have a minimal telephone plan that only includes Coatesville local exchange numbers. When they call a person who may live next door but has a cell phone with a local exchange out of the Coatesville local area, the person calling that cell phone receives a long distance charge for that call.

This was recorded at the City of Coatesville Special Budget Workshop meeting on Wednesday April 21, 2010.

Coatesville City Council member Ingrid Jones, “I am looking at this from a poor person’s point of view.”
