Project at Roymar Hall raises eyebrows
Members of City Council said they are angry that they weren't fully informed about a renovation project at Roymar Hall Apartments. The project is being done by the Community, Youth and Women’s Alliance.
“I will be the first to tell you I am so mad right now that I’m seeing red,” said City Council President Ed Simpson.
Interim City Manager Ted Reed said he believed members of council were concerned that they were not receiving correct information about the project. "The administration regrets not informing council in the form they were expecting,” Reed said.
Council and some residents said this project raised concerns about the amount of low-income housing in the city.
But proponents of the project believe it will be a positive thing for the city because it will renovate a building that was once an eyesore.
What are your views of this project?

I am glad they are renovating and I think that even though they will be low-income housing it will be great because of all the revitalization projects in Coatesville are for the wealthy. Tear down our homes and build middle class homes we can't afford to buy. I am glad Roymar will be building afforable housing.
