You don’t know/you don’t understand – you’re not from here/Coatesville.” If I hear it one more time, I’m going to lose my s**t

I think the thing about being “from Coatesville” or living in the City Limits was Richard Legree’s way of stacking the Coatesville PD with people he selected. Although he allegedly told one person; “I’ll make you a Lieutenant in the Coatesville Police Force.” who was not living in Coatesville at the time. 

When the big push to have people “from Coatesville” was heard at the City Council meetings most of the people saying it were Legree’s relatives and cronies. Many of whom are in prison right now.

Maybe the Bryn Mawr Township Manager can live there without his life being threatened but a Coatesville City Manager is sure to have his life and maybe his family members lives threatened at some point.

Committees, authorities, boards and elected officials need to live in Coatesville (or at least say they do) but Coatesville employees and especially police should not live inside Coatesville. It’s too easy to intimidate their families, especially if they have small children. That includes the City Manager.
