The two colored land parcels on this map do not belong to the Duluth School District yet when the District requested zoning changes at the Piedmont Elementary site their map showed the District owned both lots and misidentified them as residential rather than commercial property.
From the Let Duluth Vote website:
The Piedmont Elementary school is Tim Grover’s baby. At the moment most of his neighbors in Piedmont Heights are very unhappy so much so that they are pulling their kids out of the Duluth schools in droves. Tim, as Chairman of the Board, is trying to protect what remains of the schools in his central western District. Highest on Tim’s list to save is Piedmont Elementary which has been hemorrhaging children. This is a story Let Duluth Vote has been attempting to get the Tribune to report for several months to no avail.
