BY: Ruel E. McPherson, Oakland County Commissioner, District 49
RE: (SUPPORT) Michigan Bell Education Program on Dialing Procedures
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, Michigan Bell's recent requirement that area code 313 be
used for calls outside the local zone seems to have caused confusion that
often results in wasted time; and
WHEREAS, much of the confusion relates to the fact that no clear
definition of local zone has been offered by Michigan Bell; and
WHEREAS, it seems reasonable to expect that Michigan Bell should
initiate an educational program to inform its customers why the dialing
procedure was changed and to define local zone so that users will not have
to make two phone calls instead of one.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners urges Michigan Bell to provide information on dialing
procedures to its customers to alleviate confusion and wasted time.
Mr. Chairperson, I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
Ruel E. McPherson
