There is a bulldozer running rampant near Piedmont School this morning. Its on private property. The District has spoken to the owner of the property about buying the 50 by 100 foot strip of land for road access to a school that is already under construction. It seems a little late to be asking for property especially when the School Board has taken a pledge not to use eminent domain to acquire what they need. They might not get their access road unless they dig really deep to pay for it.
The Bulldozer operator is simply doing what his boss told him to do. The bulldozing buck stops at the School District which has already proven to be less than reliable as far as the property owner is concerned. In fact, the real estate broker has proven so untrustworthy that District officials no longer dare to let her negotiate for this property.
