This is not why we moved to Piedmont
Wow — I just found this blog, and it hits so close to home. We moved here for the schools and sense of community, but what’s really going on? Courts at Linda Beach redone at huge cost — now locked up for weeks, just sitting there. Our tax dollars literally behind a fence. Then there’s…
