Mayor challenged by shelter director over admission bias
Chester mayor proposed Chester residents get admission preference at Wesley House homeless shelter. Hilda Naylor of Chester-Wesley House counters that the county must assist all homeless, not just locals, and plans to propose county funding while meeting with the mayor and County Council. Leake notes many shelter residents are county residents. Both officials say they should cooperate to serve all in need.
