Piedmont, AL – The Piedmont Police Department and the City of Piedmont have developed a Safe Exchange Zone located at 312 North Center Ave (The Piedmont Municipal Court Building). The purpose for the Safe Exchange Zone is to provide a safe location for the community to have a place that is video and audio recorded to conduct child custody exchanges and internet purchase exchanges that is reviewed and monitored by the Piedmont Police Department. There are two dedicated parking spaces painted green for people to park and they strongly encourage participants to use this area so in the case where something happens it can be reviewed and investigated. The Piedmont Police also thanked Mayor Bill Baker, City Clerk Carl Hinton, and the Piedmont City Council for supporting this idea.
