• Leslie's Pool Supplies To Close Mountain View Store Amid Bankruptcy (patch.com) — Mountain View residents who rely on Leslie's for pool and spa supplies will soon lose their local store as the chain shutters eight Bay Area locations during a Chapter 11 bankruptcy restructuring. The company says remaining outlets and online sales will continue operating while it cuts debt, even as it reports falling sales and widening losses across its national footprint.
