New Area Code for Burbank?

phone

 

Apparently the 818 area code will run out of numbers by 2009 due to the demand for cell phones! The California Public Utilities Commission is proposing splitting the San Fernando Valley into two pieces and have a new area code, 747, for part of the area.

The other option on the table , which they are calling the "overlay" option involves just giving new customers the 747 area code.   

If you are interested in learning more about this issue, they will be holding public meetings.  The Burbank meeting will be at 7pm, October 22 at the Buena Vista Library.

This will be your opportunity to learn the details of the plan and voice any concerns you may have!

I wish these new area codes would just stop!  UGH!  I guess something needs to be done, but it is sooo disruptive and is difficult to keep track of.  Great information though!
