Piedmont residents should be able to take advantage of the same benefits available to Washington residents.
“I’ve lived there all my life and we’ve just never been able to get any of the privileges that people in town get," the 63-year-old said. “We are on the water system, but we are not allowed to vote for who we’d like on the Town Council or for mayor.”
John Summers, who has lived on Piedmont Avenue since 1960, was the only neighborhood resident to attend the Town Council meeting on June 13. He said he is still in support of making Piedmont a part of town.
With Washington about to take on a $4 million loan to build a wastewater treatment plant and sewer system, Leggett said the town will benefit from adding residents.
