Sycamore and Peppertree…. Why do these names sound familiar? It’s almost like I’ve heard them before…?
We might all be better if someone just dropped a bomb on sycamore square and salted the earth there afterwards
This truly puts a bow on The incompetency of this clown as a mayor.
There is a license plate reading camera across the street from Sycamore Square parking lot. Antioch needs more license plate cameras in high crime areas.
