Presque Isle now has
full functioning voicemail system
IN THE CITY
by LaNiece Winslow
City Hall has been enjoying some changes that will benefit the citizens of Presque Isle. One portion of progress is the phone system. We have worked closely with Northwoods Communication and Fairpoint to offer the best possible phone plan that would increase service and also save on the monthly phone bill.
We now have a full functioning voicemail system. Busy signals are a thing of the past for City Hall. If an employee is on the phone or away from their desk, the voicemail will take your message and the employee will return your call as soon as possible.
The phone numbers have changed and I have listed those changes below. If you are not sure with whom you must speak with, you may call the main line and an operator will be happy to assist you. The main line for City Hall is 760-2700.
