Coatesville City Council, in a 4/3 decision, voted to stop construction of the renovations to Coatesville City Hall

There was a dispute over hiring local (black) construction contractors.

If the City of Coatesville Administration follows the vote of Coatesville City Council the City will be under breach of contract.

Is this a hint of things to come?
