Ear to the Ground

It's rumored that Carmine Pierro, longtime aide to Rick Scalera in and out of the mayor's office and now an alderman from the Fifth Ward, is moving out of Hudson. He may have done so already. The word is that early last month Pierro bought a house in Taghkanic. There have been reports in recent weeks that he has moved out of his house on Parkwood Boulevard. If this is true, will Pierro resign from the Common Council, or will he try to establish a pied-á-terre in Hudson so he can continue to promote the former mayor's agenda and protect his legacy?
