Hi folks,
We just discovered in Gold Hill during a recent all-day power outage that our landlines were useless due to lack of battery charge at the Century Link box. When looked into, Lumen (the new overseers for Century Link) says they will no longer service the battery. When asked if the Fire Dept. could attach a generator, they were told no.
Of course this is more than an inconvenience, it is a safety issue. Gold Hill proper has no access to cellphone service.
My questions are this: 1) What is the status for Jamestown? How was it resolved, if it was and 2) Who are the proper people (inside and outside of CL/Lumen) to contact?
Thank you for your help. Martha (formerly at the PO) in Gold Hill
