The Power Lines are Coming.

But where will they go?

A panel of about 9 OG&E reps reviewed plans, addressed questions, listened to concerns, and debated some of the 350 Piedmont residents at the First Baptist Church on Monday, April 18th. I, unfortunately, was not able to attend. So please understand that I glean my thoughts on this event from the perspective provided in the Piedmont-Surrey Gazette (thanks for the great recap guys!).

Mayor Mike Fina invites all Piedmont residents to attend a town hall meeting on August 18th, 2008 at the First Baptist Church to discuss the placement of OG&E power lines in Piedmont. Both policy makers from Piedmont and representatives from OG&E will be present to answer any and all questions.

If you are at all concerned about or interested in where these power lines will be placed within Piedmont city limits and how it may or may not impact the future of our town, please come out and be a part of the decision-making process.

Webmaster Introduction

By Mike Pierce on 7/23/2008 8:28 AM

Hi All! My name is Mike Pierce, and I am the webmaster for the Piedmont Community Website. My day job is with Teleflora in Oklahoma City as the Director of Web Development and E-Commerce Applications. In my spare time (what little there is of it), I pursue ventures related to the development of websites and dabbling in web design. I also try to stay involved in the Piedmont community by serving as a board member on the Parks & Recreation board, acting as co-goal leader for the Community & Citizens Collaboration (C3) committee (a P3 committee) with Mary Lynn Heath, and participating as a board member on the newly formed Piedmont Community Foundation boar
