In this case, the 540 code has been Overlayed with the 826 area code. New phone numbers in the Cottage Green area will be assigned with one of these codes: 540 or 826. As a result, placing a call in the Cottage Green area will require 10-digit dialing (where you enter both the area code and then the phone number). |
