A
Good
evening
and
welcome

advisory
committee

to
8
P.M,
it
is

on
the
city's
YouTube
channel
and
public
comments
may
be
submitted
prior
to
our
meeting
for
your
awesome
voicemail
our
email,
my
name
is
bobbette
Mays
and
I.
Am
the
chair
and
I
represent
28803
and
28704
and
I'll?
Let
each
one
of
the
committee
members
introduce
himself
we'll
start
with
Joe
Taylor.
A
A
A
D
J
J
About
going
over
some
information
that
could
be
helpful
for
you
all
as
you're
looking
at
how
you,
as
committee
members,
want
to
do,
Outreach
and
so
I
wanted
to
share
with
you
resources
that
you
have
at
your
disposal
for
that,
and
so
you've
got
a
couple
of
things
printed
out
and
we'll
go
into
those
in
more
detail
as
I
show
you.
But
the
first
thing
is
the
neighborhood
map
and
if
you've
never
been
to
the
city's
Neighborhood
Services
page.
J
J
You
could
also
type
it
in
the
search
bar
on
the
city's
website
and
come
to
it
that
way
and
there's
a
lot
of
good
information
on
this
page.
But
what
I
wanted
to
show
you
all
was
the
map
Asheville
neighborhood
web
map,
and
so
its
default
is,
as
you
see
it's
kind
of
zoomed
in
and
you
can
zoom
out
to
see
the
full
picture.
J
If
you
go
to
Nextdoor
nextdoor.com,
some
folks
use
next
door,
some
don't
but
there's
208
neighborhoods
in
Asheville
on
next
door.
So
that's
considerably
more
so
before
we,
you
know,
go
into
your
sort
of
you
know.
Zones
I
just
wanted
to
say
about
neighborhood
registration
that
it's
it's
not
it's.
Sometimes
characterized
I've
heard
it
characterized
by
a
community
members
as
like.
J
This
is
the
city
officially
recognizing
your
neighborhood
and
for
us,
it's
honestly
less
about
that
and
just
more
about
an
opportunity
for
us
to
have
your
contact
information
so
that
in
the
event
of
emergencies
we
have
a
call
list
and
an
email
list,
and
we
can
provide
direct
Outreach
and
communication,
which
is
really
really
helpful
and
also,
if
your
Neighborhood
meets,
then
we
have
the
ability
to
say
Hey.
You
know,
we've
got
a
project
coming
up
and
that
might
be
important
to
Residents
in
your
neighborhood.
J
That's
that's
what
this
is
very
helpful
to
us
for
and
hopefully
it's
two-way
communication
and
and
hopefully,
as
people
are
registering
their
neighborhoods
they're,
keeping
in
mind
to
keep
us
updated
whenever
you
know
they
go
through
an
election
cycle
and
the
president
role
changes
to
another
person
or
if
they
upgrade
and
get
a
website,
and
they
have
a
different
email
address
for
the
main
contact
that
sort
of
stuff.
J
County
like
Beaver
Dam
Valley
is
a
really
large
neighborhood
in
the
North
or
the
Emma
neighborhood
in
West
Asheville.
So
those
are
just
some.
You
know
fun
facts.
So
if
you
look
at
the
bottom
of
the
neighborhood
map,
there's
this
little
black
box
with
a
white
Arrow,
it's
the
attribute
table
is
what
it's
called
and
these
things
take
a
minute
to
load.
So
when
you're
doing
this
at
home,
don't
get
frustrated,
it's
gonna
come
up,
but
this
is
how
you
can
access
the
contact
information.
J
That's
that
we
have
inside
the
neighborhood
map,
so
it
pulls
up
this
table
and
you
know,
like
I,
said:
there's
82
entries.
So
there's
kind
of
a
lot
to
look
at
there,
but
if
you
like,
you
can
download
it.
So
there's
there's
some
other
options
that
you
can
explore:
filtering
the
map
by
extent
and
fun
GIS
stuff.
But
if
you
click
on
the
options
you
can
export
all
to
a
spreadsheet
and
just
click.
Ok
and.
J
It
will
pull
that
you
can.
You
can
pull
up
that
download
and
then
you'll
have
a
downloaded
list
of
everybody
that
you
sorry,
that's
I,
don't
have
the
right
extension,
Chrome
extension,
so
I
can't
show
you
the
spreadsheet,
but
your
computer
hopefully
will
be
able
to
do
it.
I
can't
go
into
any
sort
of
it
as
part
of
this
presentation.
So
so
that's
the
neighborhood
map,
and
so
what
you
all
have
at
your
places
are
some
very
rudimentary
hand
drawn
by
me
boundaries
around
the
ZIP
code.
J
J
If
you
are
appointed
to
a
zip
code
seat
or
if
you
are
an
at-large
member
I've,
given
you
the
ZIP
code
areas
that
you
actually
that
you
live
in
and
you'll
also
notice
that
tonight
you're
sitting
next
to
someone
that
you
aren't
Joe
because
you're
the
only
person
in
28804
and
you
also
above,
are
the
only
person
in
28803,
but
you
two
earned
28801
and
you're
into
URL
three.
Well,
that's
why
you're
in
the
middle,
then
Oakley
is
one
of
those
neighborhoods,
that's
in
28805
and
28803.
J
So
we'll
get
you
another
sheet
for
28803,
then
and
I've.
Given
you
lists
of
all
of
the
neighborhoods
that
are
registered
with
the
city
in
your
ZIP
code,
so
as
you're
thinking
about
how
you
want
to
do
Outreach,
and
especially
for
our
folks
who
are
at
large
like
right
now,
we
have
two
at
large
members
who
live
in
28801.
We
don't
have
an
appointed
person
in
that
288-1
spot.
So
it'd
be
great.
J
If
the
two
of
you,
maybe
you
think,
about
coordinating
how
that
Outreach
could
work
for
you
and
same
for
everyone
else,
and
that's
why
you're
sitting
next
to
one
another.
Just
in
case,
it's
helpful
to
you
know,
coordinate
on
that
later
tonight,
maybe
or
something
I
think
that
was
all
I
had
to
share
with
you.
Is
there?
Are
there
any
questions
that
I
could
yeah.
B
J
J
C
J
If
that's
something
that
you're
interested
in
doing
I
mean
the
Ben
I
hope
that
I
was,
you
know,
gave
you
a
good
sense
of
what
the
benefits
to
registering
are
and
yeah.
We,
you
know
if,
if
it's
okay
for
folks,
if
they
want
to
register
with
us,
we
would
appreciate
being
able
to
contact
them
so
sure
yeah
that
could
be
a
form
of
Outreach.
J
F
K
A
Oh
excuse
me
I'm.
Sorry,
I'm,
sorry
to
mistake.
She
reminded
me,
oh,
that
we've
got
to
talk
about
the
neighborhood
information
sharing
from
each
member
of
NAC
Dan.
You
want
to
go
first
out
before
you
start
I'd
like
to
say
that
when
we
were
at
the
neighborhood
strategic
part
in
Shiloh,
the
cookout
I
did
not
introduce
you
to
Renee
White,
because
I
was
so
busy,
but
he
did
ask
me
about
Renee
White
and
about
when
did
they
meet
so
I
appreciate
that
because
she
was
had
an
interest
in
going
to
their
meetings.
H
A
When
we
talk
about
what
would
you
say
that
your
neighborhood
I
know
it's
kind
of
hard,
okay,
I'll
start,
then
that
will
give
you
so
I
live
in
Shiloh,
it's
2803
in
Shiloh
we
do
have
a
community.
We
do
have
a
monthly
meeting
association
meeting
once
a
month
we're
very
engaged
in
activities.
They
will
be
part
of
the
Festival
neighborhoods
on
Saturday,
we're
working
now
to
try
to
maintain
the
residency
of
Shiloh
so
as
homeowners.
A
Instead,
because
we're
not,
we
do
not
have
any
businesses
in
Shiloh,
it's
all
everyone
there's
their
homeowners
or
they
have
houses.
We
don't
have
Apartments,
but
we
struggle
every
day
with
keeping
out
people
that
want
to
come
in
and
buy
a
property
to
either
do
Apartments
townhouses
things
like
that
because
we
do
have.
The
property
is
probably
cheaper
in
Shiloh
than
some
of
the
other
areas.
So.
A
End
Valley
because
I'm
on
reparations
with
housing,
I
know
they're
concerned
right
now
about
the
taxes
for
seniors
with
taxes
and
homes
are
paid
for,
and
they
can't
afford
the
taxes
and
why
they're
so
high
people
didn't
realize
that
if
someone
builds
a
house
next
to
you,
then
whatever
that
value
of
their
home
is
that
can
cause
your
taxes
to
go
up
not
in
a
you
know,
not
in
a
established
community
on
its
own.
But
if
it's
one
or
two
houses
that
can
cause
that.
A
So
that's
what
I
would
say
that
we're
looking
into
downtown
would
be
where
you
were
talking
where
you
talked
gave
me
education
about
parking
the
last
time
which
I
did
not
know
that
it
was
cheaper
to
park,
Church,
Street
and
then
walk
up
compared
to
Penn
at
high
cost
somewhere
else.
So
that
would
be
some
things.
You
would
talk
about.
Okay,
all.
H
Right,
well
so
I've
been
in
downtown
for
15
years
and
we
have
a
very
active
Downtown,
Association,
darn
and
Mary
just
came
to
our
annual
meeting.
We
have
one
official
business
meeting
every
year,
which
we
didn't
really
do
a
lot
of
business
this
time,
but
we
haven't
met
in
three
years,
so
that
was
kind
of
our
kickoff
meeting.
But
we
are
socially,
very
active.
We
have
about
a
thousand
people
living
downtown,
believe
it
or
not,
and
we
have
four
affordable
housing
buildings
in
downtown
which
a
lot
of
people
don't
know
about.
H
We
have
actually
more
affordable
housing
in
downtown
than
any
other
neighborhood
in
Asheville,
but
socially
we
get
together
at
a
minimum
of
three
times
a
month
and
it's
just
whoever
wants
to
show
up.
You
know,
then
there
are
different
different
things
and
then
we
have
regular
meetings
like
about
every
three
months
and
then
we
have
the
annual
meeting,
which
is
where
hopefully,
we
get
a
lot
of
people
attend.
H
H
You
know
like
the
building
I'm
in
is
on
Broadway
and
we
have
like
five
residents
in
that
building
and
you
know
I
wouldn't
even
know
the
other
people
except
for
dark,
and
so
it's
really
good
to
have
darn
and
darn
has
been
around
since
around
2003
I
mean
it
was
it's
been
around
a
long
time
so
anyway,
and
now
do
look
forward
to
getting
out
into
some
of
the
other
neighborhoods
which
I
haven't
done
so
far,
I
haven't
I
mean
in
very
limited
way.
H
I
have,
but
but
I
can
be
more
active
in
some
of
these
other
neighborhoods.
So
that's
pretty
much
it
as
far
as
the
concerns
for
downtown
I
mean
the
same
current
concerns
that
you
know
everybody
has.
You
know
coming
into
downtown
I,
have
a
little
dog
I
walk
in
twice
a
day,
so
I
see
everything,
that's
going
on
out
there.
You
know
the
homeless
people,
the
vagrants
our
building
was
broken
into
recently
for
the
first
time
ever,
and
so
crime
is
an
issue.
G
So
I
believe
one
of
the
only
issues
that
I'm
aware
of
right
now
is
speeding
in
my
neighborhood,
please.
Yes,
the
the
only
issue
that
I'm
currently
aware
of
in
my
neighborhood
is
speeding
and
that's
on
Merriman,
so
I,
don't
really
think
that's
a
city
issue
due
to
it
being
a
state
route.
G
On
North
Merriman
I,
really
like
them
I
wish
there
was
a
direct
path
from
downtown
currently
on
the
map
that
was
approved
by
the
city
that
they're
going
to
be
talking
about
at
the
next
council
meeting
for
outdoor
opinion.
L
G
For
opinions,
if
I
was
to
attempt
to
ride
a
bicycle,
downtown
I
would
have
to
go
about
a
mile
out
of
my
way,
instead
of
just
finding
a
direct
route.
So
that's
it's
a
step
in
the
right
direction,
but
we've
got
a
long
way
to
go.
H
Yeah
I
agree
with
you:
I
used
to
ride
my
bike
up
to
a
B
Tech
and
getting
from
Broadway
to
AB.
Tech
I
mean
a
lot,
especially
you
know
the
main
streets.
You
really
can't
ride
on
them.
Yeah
I
mean
it
leaves
them
safely.
Yeah
I
agree
with
you.
We
need
more
bike
routes.
If
we're
going
to
have
any
kind
of
chance
of
having
alternative
transportation.
F
H
F
You're,
smart
I
am
in
the
Oakley
neighborhood
and
we
in
the
past
couple
of
years
have
had
kind
of
a
Resurgence.
A
lot
of
it
was
rap.
We
rallied
around
the
light
Oakley
Library,
a
lot
of
young
families
have
moved
in
and
they
walk
their
kids
to
Oakley
Elementary
and
they
go
to
the
library
there,
and
so
when
there
was
some
talk
a
year
a
year
and
a
half
maybe
two
years
ago
about
closing
some
of
the
libraries,
especially
now
the
giant
one
on
East
in
East
Asheville
across
70,
was
built.
F
They
thought
that
the
ugly
one
was
sort
of
Obsolete
and
it
would
take
a
lot
of
fix
it
and
repair
it.
So
our
neighborhood
association
really
rallied
around
that
and
right
now,
we've
saved
to
the
library,
and
so
there
was
a
lot
of
people
coming
to
meetings
meetings
and
now
that
that
is
done.
In
the
last
year
we
moved
to
quarterly
meetings
and
one
of
our
biggest
things
is
traffic
calming
on
Fairview
Road.
F
I
know
of
lots
of
people
either
biking
or
that
their
the
satellite
walks
are
pretty
near.
So
there's
some
pretty
significant
sidewalk
repair
work
going
on
along
Fairview
Road
and
then
the
new
we're
really
excited
about
the
greenway
that
is
going
to
be
coming
through
on
River
Road
at
first,
we
were
really
rallying
for
it
to
be
on
Thompson
Street,
the
other
side
of
the
river
from
Kenilworth,
because
it's
calm.
F
To
pay
for
it,
I
understand
part
of
it,
since
it's
on
State
Road
81,
which
is
100
River
Road,
so
that
will
make
our
neighborhood
a
little
more
walkable,
as
well
as
the
sidewalks
around
School
Road,
and
onto
your
and,
as
Christina
pointed
out,
Oakley
is
in
28805
and
28803.
So
part
of
the
part
of
the
I
know
this:
it's
schools
too.
You
know
whether
they're
County
schools
in
the
city,
so
lots
of
fragmentation
there.
F
D
F
E
I
I
live
in
in
the
East
Asheville
area,
with
the
active,
the
homeowners
association,
at
least
for
Eastern
East
Ridge
one.
Some
of
the
things
that
I've
noticed
when
I
served
on
the
board
are
with
the
current
board
is
the
issue
of
traffic,
especially
for
pedestrians,
for
people
to
work
this.
This
is
something
that
was
developed
during
the
Obama
Administration,
but
now
I
I,
don't
recall
seeing
any
grass
cutting
to
make
it
easier
for
people.
So
it's
all
growing.
E
So
it's
a
little
bit
difficult
for
people
to
to
navigate
when
you
have.
You
know
something
like
that
and
it's
not
being
kept
up
to
date.
Another
issue
is
coming
from
Turner
Road
and
going
on
Riceville
Road,
there's
a
bridge
on
that
is
like
an
underpass
of
the
Blue
Ridge
Parkway
and
that's
a
very
narrow
entrance.
E
So
people,
you
know
some
people,
don't
they
they're
working
at
night
and
if
you
can't,
if
they're,
not
wear
something
a
contrasting
color,
it's
very
easy
to
knock
people
down.
So
you
know
that
something
that
you
know
we're
hoping
that
there's
no
decision
we're
looking
to
expand
and
I,
don't
know
whether
it's
a
state,
road
or
Federal
Road
because
of
the
bridge,
which
is
historic
and
one.
E
Of
issue
that
we've
been
talking
about
is
the
curve
coming
from
still
on
Riceville
Road.
There's
a
church
upper
grassy
Branch
cars
just
zooming,
and
act
like
that,
but
they're
coming
from
a
blind
spot.
So
you
really
cannot
see
them
because
of
the
shop
call.
So
there's
links
to
dream.
You
know
a
lot
of
the
the
trades
about
two
years.
I
E
Somebody
came
in
and
and
just
caught
few
branches,
and
that
was
the
end
of
it.
So
that's
one
of
the
bills
that
the
neighborhood
is
dealing
with
I'm
sure
the
other
issues
that
right
now
that's
what
we
like
to
say
happening
there.
E
Up
but
then
you
also
have
business
is
closing,
you
know
so
I
in
terms
of
economy.
It's
it's
a
balancing
act.
D
Hello,
I'm
Elise,
marter
I
reside
in
28806
just
some
things
that
I
know
that
have
been
going
on
lately.
The
sidewalks
in
on
Vermont
Street
are
finally
getting
replaced
and
they're
so
nice
and
flat
they're.
Not
all
buckled
like
this
anymore
and
I,
don't
know.
I
have
no
idea
what
the
timeline
for
the
project
is,
but
I
really
hope
that
they'll
be
done
in
time
for
the
Halloween
festival
that
Vermont
Street
has
every
year
going
on
around
me.
C
That's
like
half
a
mile
down
the
road,
not
even
on
a
patent
and
new
Leicester
Highway,
and
so
that's
people
are
just
trying
to
figure
out
because,
as
you
guys
know,
the
Louisiana
patent
intersection
is
already
not
great
in
terms
of
traffic.
It's
hard
for
people
to
like,
if
you're
coming
off
of
Louisiana
to
turn
onto
Patton
in
either
direction,
and
so
that's
kind
of
just
trying
to
figure
out
how
that's
going
to
impact
those
traffic
patterns.
C
If
there's
an
angles
there
and
then
what's
going
to
happen
to
the
Ingles,
that's
you
know
down
the
road,
so
I'm
sure
it's
still
I
mean
I
haven't
even
seen
anything
go
down,
but
that's
one
of
the
things
that
you
know
they've
been
talking
about
for
a
year
now.
B
I'm
Joe
Taylor
I'm
new
to
the
committee
and
the
Beaver
Dam
Valley
neighborhood
association,
which
I'm
a
member
is
also
new
to
being
a
neighborhood
and
officially
recognized
as
such,
probably
about
a
year
and
a
half
and
the
neighborhood
is
huge
part
in
the
county.
B
We
had
over
50
people
at
the
North,
Asheville
library
and
I
had
already
done
a
brochure
about
thinking
about
native
plants
in
your
own
backyard
as
a
way
to
help
insect
and
bird
populations.
So
that
was
a
lot
of
fun,
but
most
of
the
energy
that
the
board
has
been
putting
forth
has
to
be
around
the
development
issue.
B
The
the
other
concerns
in
our
neighborhood
and
quite
honestly,
I've,
yet
to
reach
out
to
these
other
folks
and
so
I'm.
Assuming
that
I
would
do
with
them
the
way
I
do
with
our
board,
and
that
is
to
come
up
with
a
summary
of
this
meeting
and
what
was
discussed
and
then
input
and
then
reach
out
to
these
neighborhood
associations.
Our
concerns
are
the
safety.
We
have
no
walkable
areas
Once,
you
turn
from
Merriman
onto
Beaver
Dam.
B
There
are
no
walkable
areas
at
all
and
it's
a
pretty
fast
Road
and
we're
thinking
about
dumping,
more
cars
on
it.
With
this
new
development
so
and
also
we've
had
significant
water
repairs
and
they
still
haven't
figured
it
all
out
and
we've
had
a
lot
of
concerns
about
just
real
basic
support
services.
So
that's
been
where
that
energy
is
they've
got
a
booth
at
the
festival
of
neighborhoods
and
they
got
a
grant
this
year.
So
we're
often
running,
but
it's.
J
A
Even
if
you
don't
live
right
there
go
to
the
next
one,
that's
right
next,
especially
at
large,
and
go
and
see
how
these
neighborhoods,
the
associations
are
great,
a
way
for
we,
when
you're
involved
with
your
neighborhood
associations.
That
gives
you
a
place
with
the
city
and
the
county.
A
It
gives
you
a
seat
at
the
table
for
your
concerns,
because
the
same
concerns
you
have
the
same
concerns
that
we
have
with
moving
in
to
our
neighborhoods.
A
We
I
had
a
meeting
earlier
where
habitat
wants
to
develop
some
homes
and
some
more
homes
in
Shiloh,
but
we're
still
concerned
about
how
you're
going
to
place
them,
how
many
you're
going
to
put
how
they're
going
to
be
structured
and
to
benefit
our
community
so
I
understand
that
so
I
encourage
everybody.
You
know.
That's
that's
very
important
because
we're
talking
about
neighborhoods
and
we're
talking
about
people
and
it's
the
people
that
are
in
the
neighborhoods
that
really
make
a
difference,
and
when
you
start
talking
to
them,
they
can
tell
you
what.
I
E
Okay,
this
has
been
fourth
Baptist
Church
hospital
anyone
familiar
with
project
Aspire,
yes,
okay,
so
that's
something
that's
coming
before
the
city
council.
You
know
so
talking
of
neighborhood.
This
is
a
project.
That's
supposed
to
you
know
help
with
the
development
provide,
affordable
housing
as
well
as
teaming
up
with
the
one.
You
know
the
the
why
you
know
to
modernize
it
and
I'm,
just
I'm,
not
speaking
as
a
member
of
this,
because
I'm
a
member
of
the
church,
so
I
know
that.
A
The
intention,
so
what
I
would
say
to
you
is
get
with
the
Eastern
Valley
Community
associations,
because
they're
very
involved
in
this
process.
They
have
some
major
concerns
about
things
that
they
were
told
at
the
beginning
that
were
going
to
happen
with
the
development
has
now
changed.
Some
and
I
would
say
they
get
get
with
Renee
White
she's,
the
president
of
the
Eastern
ballet
Association,
get
with
them
because
they
go
to
all
of
those
all.
F
Can
I
have
a
follow-up
question
with
that?
I'm,
not
sure
you
know,
because
it's
right
in
the
middle
of
downtown
and
it's
there's
not
any
well
there
aren't
that
many
homes
or
condos
that
close,
except
for
Easton
I,
mean
right
in
that
area.
But
it
is
going
to
significantly
change
the
face
of
downtown
with
all
of
those
big
trees
along
Oak
Street,
which
we
talked
about
at
link
that
the
multimodal
Transportation
Commission
they
came
and
did
a
and
I.
Don't
know
how,
as
a
neighborhood
advisory
committee,
if
we
don't
have
somebody
well
and
I.
H
Very
much
so
yeah
we're
definitely
interested
in
that
project
and
as
far
as
I
can
see,
you
know
it's
a
joint
venture
between
first
Baptists
and
the
YMCA.
It's
10
acres
and
most
of
it
right
now
is
surface
parking
and
surface
parking
is
the
least
valuable
use
of
land
in
downtown
and
the
more
concentrated
we
can
get
people
I
mean
there
might
be
issues
with
that
project
with
the
height
of
the
buildings
and
things
I
mean
I,
understand
people
have
concerns,
but
getting
more
people
downtown
in
an
area
where
that's
walkable.
H
That's
on
a
bus
route
that
has
affordable
housing,
I
mean
it
has
a
lot
of
great
features
in
it,
and
you
know
right
now:
it's
primarily
just
parking
lots,
except
for
the
Y
and
the
First
Baptist,
and
to
turn
those
parking
lots
into
affordable
housing
is
probably
one
of
the
best
uses
that
could
be
made
for
that
property.
In
my
opinion,
so
I
think
if
they
can
figure
out.
You
know
the
the
issues
that
people
have,
which
I'm
sure
they
will
then
I.
Think
it's
going
to
be
a
great
addition
to
downtown.
F
What
is
the
committee
that
Sharon
was
on
the
Urban
Tree
commission
expressed
a
lot
of
concern
and
I
haven't
seen
an
updated
plan,
be
I'd,
be
curious
to
see
if,
if
we
had
access
to
that
information
about
the
trees
about.
A
H
That's
a
federal
standard
I
mean
that's
the
city
that
has
anything
to
do
with
that.
It's
80
percent
of
the
average
income
for
that
for
this
area
and
then
deeply
affordable
is
60.
So
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
I
think
those
are
the
numbers
yeah
of
a
median
income
right.
So
those
are
federal
standards
and.
A
I
think
they're.
What
I
think
they're
Eastern
Valley
was
concerned
about
is
that
when
they
put
those
affordable
houses
up,
they
would
not
be
affordable
for
the
people
that
already
Living
Well
when
they
say
affordable
they
mean
affordable
according
to
the
federal
standard.
I
know,
that's
that's
one
thing,
that's
why
I
said
it'd
be
important
for
you
all
to
go
to
that
meeting.
So
maybe
you
can
give
them
some
clarity
on
what
you
know
what
that
is
because
they
may
not
know
well.
H
They
may
not,
but
I
mean
that's.
That
is
a
and
that's
it's
important.
The
affordable
thing
is
important
when
it
comes
to
financing
projects
like
this
and
that's
what's
going
to
be
the
key
to
whether
this
actually
happens
or
not
is
going
to
be
if
they
can
get.
You
know,
financing
particularly
Federal
financing
for
this
project,
so
the
affordable
thing
is
the
only
thing
that
gives
it
the
possibility
of
getting
Federal
support.
F
I
would
say:
I
was
just
made
aware
that
this
is
going
to
be
a
yeah
I
think
you
may
know
this.
The
topic
of
the
new
Hotel
first
I've
heard
about
it
and
they
call
it
in
Biltmore
Village,
but
it
really
is
neighboring
Oakley,
so
I'm
not
really
sure
how
that
impacts.
Oakley,
apparently,
a
new
hotel
project.
D
A
H
Well,
it
just
seems
to
me
that
we
should
tie
them
into
the
five
Council
goals
that
we
should
be
I
mean
really
all
the
commissions
and
committees
should
be
working
on
those
five
things.
H
H
K
All
right-
so
yes,
here
we
are,
this-
is
this-
is
the
fun
part
of
of
today's
annual
Retreat,
I
hope
and,
and
you
all
have
the
opportunity,
through
some
activities,
to
to
hone
in
on
what
you'd
like
to
prioritize
for
this
committee
in
the
coming
calendar
year.
So
so
that
is
the
goal
to
establish
those
priorities.
K
You
all
have
seen
this
slide
before,
but
just
wanted
to
set
the
stage
and
and
just
have,
especially
since
there
are
some
new
members
to
be
able
to
share
what
the
powers
and
Duties
are,
as
they're
articulated
in
the
bylaws
particular
to
this
exercise,
we've
highlighted
just
developing
a
plan
to
strengthen
neighborhood
identity
and
resilience,
and
you
all
have
been
doing
some
things
in
those
areas.
K
Over
the
last
few
years,
each
year
it
looks
a
little
bit
different
based
on
what
the
needs
are
and
what
you're
hearing
that
needs
to
be,
and
then,
of
course,
getting
information
out
to
neighborhoods
about
cities.
Master
plans
is
another
piece
of
that.
K
I
K
Great
all
right,
so
the
one
of
the
goals
was
to
promote
and
celebrate
neighborhoods
through
an
Asheville
neighborhood
festival
and
to
do
that
in
conjunction
with
national
Neighbor
Day
celebration,
and
so
that
is
all
in
September
2023,
and
we
all
know
that
we've
got
an
exciting
fun
day
ahead
of
us
on
Saturday.
So
just
wanted
to
acknowledge
all
the
great
work
that
you
all
have
done
on
addressing
that
goal
and
we
are
so
excited
for
Saturday.
K
The
second.
The
second
one
was
to
support
the
fire
department
in
their
emergency
preparedness
program.
We've
done
a
little.
We've
talked
a
number
of
times
this
year
about
the
Emergency
Operations
plan
that
the
fire
department
is
leading
for
All
City
departments
and
really
making
sure
that
neighborhoods
are
tapped
into
that
plan,
because
we
do
know
that,
in
times
of
crises,
neighborhoods
being
able
to
support
each
other
to
share
what
their
needs
are
in
a
quickly
and
effective
way
can
really
help
in
those
recovery
efforts.
K
I'll
just
pause
there
and
and
have
heard
over
this
last
year
that
that
those
conversations
have
been
happening
as
you
all
are
out
and
about
doing
your
work
in
neighborhoods
and
then
connecting
Representatives
with
local
emergency
agencies.
There's
a
great
opportunity
to
do
that
at
the
festival
of
neighborhoods.
K
So
there's
a
lot
of
intention
put
behind
this
festival
and
it
was
direct
you
can
see
it
was
directly
aligned
with
your
goals
so
providing
resources
to
assist
Neighbors
in
developing
disaster
preparedness,
it's
another
one
that
will
will
have
an
opportunity
to
address
and
and
Foster
at
the
Festival
this
weekend
and
then
connecting
emergency
services
with
a
network
of
neighborhood
contacts,
and
that's
something
again
that
that
we
all
have
touched
on.
We
have
had
some
presentations
by
the
fire
department
this
year.
K
They
have
access
to
our
neighborhood,
our
neighborhood
list
of
contact
information
that
Christina
shared
with
you
earlier
today
and
just
want
to
highlight,
for
example,
how
beneficial
this
can
be
and
and
we'll
reflect
back
to
the
end
of
2022,
the
beginning
of
2023.
K
In
the
water
outage,
and
and
because
of
those
contacts
we
were,
there
was
misinformation
that
was
floating
around
about
what
needs
were
in
certain
areas
or
where
the
drop-off
points
would
be
for
water,
and
we
were
able
to
reach
out
to
that
neighborhood
leadership
and
get
some
on
the
ground
information
to
better
understand
what
was
really
happening,
and
then
to
dispel
some
of
those
rumors
that
were
out
there
and
help
the
response
of
providing
water.
J
K
K
As
we
roll
into
establishing
the
goal,
as
you
all
roll
into
establishing
the
goals
for
2024,
there
may
be
some
things
that
you
might
want
to
carry
over,
for
example,
as
you're,
taking
all
that
into
consideration.
If
focus
ended
up
in
another
area
this
year
and
you'd
like
to
highlight
maybe
three
or
four
as
something
you'd
like
to
carry
over.
Of
course,
that's
always
an
opportunity,
but
just
wanted
to
honor
the
goals
that
were
set
last
time
and
and
give
you
all
a
minute
to
reflect
on
those
I
didn't
do
that
on
purpose.
K
So
we
I
think
it's
really
important
to
pause
and
always
and
just
reflect
on
the
successes
that
you
all
have
had
this
year.
So
we
talked
about
a
few
that
were
directly
related
to
your
goals,
and
then
you
guys
did
some
great
work
with
your
working
groups
this
year
and
and
just
as
staff
want
to
acknowledge.
K
You
know,
on
behalf
of
city
council,
how
how
valuable
that
is,
the
time
and
energy
that
went
into
that
and
wanted
to
highlight
for
you
all
the
by
the
work
that
was
done
with
the
bylaws
and
then,
of
course,
the
Festival
of
neighborhoods.
K
Another
thing
that
may
be
worth
reflecting
on,
as
you
all
get
into
your
conversations
about
what
you'd,
like
your
priorities
to
be,
would
be
monthly
meetings.
After
you
all
work
on
your
goals,
there
is
an
up.
Well,
we
have
actually
you
have
some
action
items
on
your
agenda
tonight
and
that
is
to
adopt
your
schedule
for
next
year.
K
Okay,
every
other
yes,
a
formal
meeting
every
other
month
and
then
on
the
off
months
would
be
when
you
all
could
gather
in
your
working
groups
and
say
that
would
not
be
strong
that
wouldn't
be
streamed.
It's
a
lot
less
informal
and-
and
you
can
work
with
the
schedule-
maybe
that
works
for
the
folks
that
are
in
the
working
group
and
the
working
continue,
and
it's
really
what's
best
for
each
boarding.
K
Commission,
the
the
choice
is:
what
is
each
board
and
commission
finds
a
different
path,
so
I
just
wanted
to
frame
it
in
that
way.
It's
really
what
works
best
for
you
all.
If
you
want
to
stick
with
monthly
meetings
or
if
you
wanted
to
meet
every
other
month,.
K
Then
do
work
in
group
works.
You
all
will
be
voting
on
that
yes
ma'am
at
the
at
the
end
of
the
today's
meeting
and
Retreat.
Okay,
all
right.
So
we
have
two
activities
tonight
to
help
you
all
in
the
development
of
your
2024
goals.
We've
talked
about
the
organizational
work
plan,
areas
of
interest
and
I
do
just
want
to
mention
that
at
this
point
in
time
we
should
look
at
those
as
draft
items
that
are
over
here
on
the
wall
and
that
we're
presented
to
you
all
in
the
last
meeting.
K
They
will
go
to
city
council
for
any
input
on
October
5th,
so
they
do
they.
They
do
still
have
that
stop.
So
there
might
be
some
adjustments
or
there
might
be
more
information
that
comes
to
light,
but
wanted
to
use
this
opportunity
of
with
the
annual
Retreat
to
get
some
ideas
about
areas
where
you
all
think
neighborhoods
will
want
more
information
and
or
if
there's
going
to
be
engagement
around
any
of
these
work
plan
items
areas
where
our
projects
or
items
where
you
would
like
to
see
Knack
involved
in
that
engagement.
K
So
that
might
look
like,
depending
on
the
schedule
of
those
projects,
they're
all
in
varying
stages.
But
this
will
help
us
in
determining
what
some
upcoming
agenda
items
could
be
and
planning
to
have
staff
come
to
you.
So
if
there
was
an
engagement
that
was
happening
around
a
project
and
it's
not
too
far
down
the
road
right
now.
K
So
that's
the
opportunity,
that's
the
opportunity
there
it
and
these
things
could
maybe
change
a
little
bit
after
they're
presented
to
council
and
and
we'll
be
able
to
roll
into
that
with
ideas
about
what
you
all
are
most
interested
in.
So
that's
the
first
activity
and
then
the
second
activity
will
will
be
you
know.
K
Is
this
is
the
paper
so
we'll
we'll
pass
this
out,
while
you
guys
are
over
here
working
on
the
the
proposed
work
plan
items
but
you'll
be
writing
down
any
other
ideas
you
have
and
then
you
can
just
passing
out
to
us
we'll
be
collecting
them.
So
then
you
guys
can
see
them
all
up
on
the
screen
and
then
have
your
conversation
about
what
you
want.
K
Your
goals
to
be
so
you'll
have
both
you'll
have
the
input
from
both
of
those
activities
so
for
Activity
one
you
guys
get
to
get
up
and
move
around
a
little
bit
and
we
apologize
for
our
folks
that
may
be
watching
through
this
stream.
This
part
of
the
meeting
might
be
harder
to
decipher,
but
certainly
the.
K
Will
be
made
available
in
the
minutes
of
this
meeting
to
follow
along,
so
you
guys
have
four
dots
in
front
of
you
and
then
you
can
see
those
priority
areas
councils
priority
areas
at
the
top
of
the
list
over
there
and
then
some
projects
that
are
identified
or
laid
out
underneath
them
and
those
are
those.
You
know
the
draft
Concepts
that
that
staff
is
working
with
right
now,
and
so
you
can
just
put
your
dot
with
the
ones
that
you
think
you
and
or
your
community
might
be
most
interested
in.
M
I
M
M
G
Yeah
more
waste,
so
so.
L
M
L
M
M
L
M
M
I
D
M
M
M
L
M
A
I
A
K
J
K
Reparations
was
that
I
think
that
was
our
duplicate
more.
That
was
our
duplicate.
K
E
C
K
All
right
so
before
I
leave
this
slide.
Is
there
anything
on
here
that
you
all
want
to
make
sure
we
carry
over?
As
you
have
your
discussion
about
the
priorities
for
next
year
and
I
I
will
say:
we've
got
a
commission
that
is
focusing
their
work
on
it,
but
if,
for
example,
something
about
city
and
land
was
interesting
to
you
all,
we
can
make
sure
we
leave
that
on
this
list,
for
you
can
to
consider
in
the
development
of
your
goals.
M
A
C
It's
another
question:
I
know
you
said
that
there
there's
a
commission
that's
dedicated.
Is
there
like
a
timeline
for
those
finalizing
those
recommendations
by
that
commission?
That's
dedicated
specifically.
I
K
C
K
K
K
K
M
M
K
C
K
Okay,
so
so
this
is
the
part
where
you
guys
can
get
to
kind
of
see
what
the
highest
ranking
ones
were,
and
so
the
top
three
were
the
missing.
The
missing
middle
housing
study,
for
example,
downtown
safety,
and
then
the
Gap
plan
and
Ada
implementation.
K
Is
this
all
of
them?
This
isn't
all
more
of
them
are
coming,
but
these
were
the
ones
the
other
ones
have
only
one
or
two
dots
beside
them,
so
that
that's
what
are
they
after
this
one
fabulous
great?
F
I
D
The
city
is
currently
seeking
input
to
build
a
public
restroom
using
arpa
funds
at
Rankin
in
college
Walnut.
H
H
H
H
E
Oh
wow,
that's
some.
Have
you
been
to
Hendersonville
Road
I
mean
Andersonville.
E
They
have
I,
just
you
know,
I
was
I,
just
happened
to
be
there
and
you
know
looking
for
maybe
McDonald's
or
something
and
I
just
look
up
and
there's
this
beautiful
restroom
that
they
have
it's
really
nice
I
was
surprised.
You
know
it's,
it's
like
what
we
find
at
rest
stops,
but
it's,
but
it's
right
downtown.
H
The
only
one
that's
open
like
on
a
regular
basis
is
the
library
and
that's
just
like
during
Library
hours,
so.
H
Up
the
hill
is
it
this
way
the
problem
is,
is
Staffing,
so
the
one
that
they're
talking
about
building
on
Rankin
street
is
going
to
be
like
totally
automated.
So
and
you
see
those
in
other
cities,
you
know
around
the
world
where
people
can
just
go
in
and
use
the
restroom
their
self-cleaning.
They
don't
require
somebody
to
like
clean
them
and
that's
basically,
the
problem
with
the
other
restrooms.
Is
you
know,
especially
during
covid?
H
D
H
D
Guess
they
make
them
in
Portland
and
the
idea
is
cities
all
across
the
nation
might
use
them,
but
they
make
them
specially
designed
to
have
like
you
know,
tilted
baffles.
They
call
them
so
that
police
can
look
under
and
make
sure
nothing
nefarious
is
going
on,
but
still
providing
privacy
from
whatever
angles.
D
The
material
that
they're
made
out
of
is
graffiti
resistant,
I
guess
easy
to
clean
the
graffiti
off
and
they
have
what
the
hand
washing
station
is
outside
of
the
toilet
part,
so
that
you
increase
the
chance
that
people
are
trying
to
bathe
or
something.
You
know
it's
like
strictly
for
hand
washing
they
put
it
in
highly
visible
locations
to
decrease
the
chances
of
prostitution
or
drug
use
happening.
K
K
D
I
will
say:
I
am
interested
in
the
implementation
of
those
bathrooms,
but
I
did
not
put
a
dot
under
that
because
I
don't
think.
That's
like
a
broad
enough
right,
neighborhood
type
thing,
but
I
certainly
support
connecting
the
neighborhoods
to
these
engagement
opportunities.
I
know,
I
filled
out
the
survey
for
the
bathroom
thing
and
I,
don't
know
when
that
closes.
If
there's
still
an
opportunity
right.
K
So
yeah
perfect,
thank
you
for
that
Elise,
so
it
wouldn't
be
just
the
bathrooms
right,
but
if
something
that
you
all
really
want
to
focus,
your
attention
on
is
being
aware
of
what
all
the
different
engagements
are
and
sharing
that
with
neighborhoods.
That
would
be
that
higher
level,
not
as
focused
of
a
goal,
so
certainly
not
that
this
was
a
vote.
B
Can
I
get
some
help
like
it
seems
pretty
obvious
where
we're
concerned
I
mean
there
are
not
many
up
there.
We
all
kind
of
gravitated
to
the
same
ones
and
two
that
stand
out
for
me
are
the
sidewalks
and
the
water
core
services.
So
how
do
we
get
from
our
interests
there
to
a
goal
to
an
actionable
item
and,
and
what
kind
of
you
know
when
we
communicate
our
goals,
then
do
we
gather
data
about
our
neighborhoods?
How
does
the
city
gather
their
data
about
sidewalks
and
water
core
Services,
you
know.
B
Do
we
want
to
be
part
of
that?
Do
we
want
a
canvaside
I
mean
I'm
I'm,
not
sure
how
to
get
interest
to
goals,
to
actionable
items.
K
So
so,
just
thinking
about
what
the
what
the
here,
let's
go
back
to
this.
K
So
you
have
an
idea
of
some
things
that
you're
interested
in,
and
then
these
are
your.
These
are
knacks.
This
is
powers
and
duties
right,
and
a
lot
of
that
has
to
do
with
communicating
things
to
neighborhoods
getting
information
from
neighborhoods,
bringing
it
back
and
then
you've
got
the
ones
around
that
are
really
capacity
building
so
getting
out
into
neighborhoods
making
sure
they
have
resources
like
how
to
establish
a
neighborhood
association
connecting
neighborhoods.
This
neighborhood
did
a
great
job
in
establishing
theirs.
K
Maybe
they
want
to
be
almost
in
a
mentoring,
kind
of
relationship
with
a
newer
neighborhood
and
you
all
are
making
those
connections
so
so
the
exercises
here
are
some
things
that
are
happening:
where's
Knack,
most
interested
and
then
how
might
that
fit
into
your
goals
and
duties,
that
being
sharing
of
information
connecting
people
to
engagement,
opportunities
for
decisions
that
can
be
made
on
down
the
road?
Does
that
make
sense?
So
this
is
really
your
conversation
like
what
what
do
you?
Knowing?
This
is
your
charge?
K
K
F
I
actually
I
wondered
about.
You
know
one
of
the
things
that
got
one
of
the
highest
votes.
A
lot
of
people
are
interested
in
was
under
housing,
stability
and
and
yet,
and
the
middle
missing
housing
study
and
then
the
other
one,
the.
What
was
the
one,
maybe.
I
That
was
just
when
I
was,
but
there's
not
much.
M
F
I
wonder
if
that's
where
that
other
goal
came
from
the
way
for
this
committee
to
plug
in
on
a
neighborhood
level
versus
you
know,
we're
not
going
to
go
out
and
help
develop,
affordable
housing
somewhere,
but
the
the
housing
voucher
I
was
trying
to
connect
the
dots
well.
How
was
that
on
there
for
last
year,
but
that
may
be
a
link?
F
K
K
And
so
so,
that's
back
to
I
would
say
your
powers
and
duties
and
that's
making
connections
with
things
that
are
happening.
So
that's
this
part
of
the
exercise
right.
These
are
things
that
are
going
to
be
shared
with
Council
on
October
5th
projects
that
have
been
identified,
that
align
with
city
council
goals
and
a
lot
of
them
have
opportunities
for
input
which
that's
the
connection
for
the
neighborhood
advisory
committee
right,
bringing
more
people
to
the
table
to
provide
their
input,
encouraging
that
so
better
decisions
can
be
more
inclusive.
C
I
did
have
a
question,
I
guess
more
generically.
If
you
know
what
kind
of
limitations
there
are
in
the
communications
we
can
have,
and
I
talked
very
briefly
in
Meredith
about
this
at
the
event
at
the
shallow
community
garden,
because
obviously
we
have
against
different
limitations
on
us
than
you
guys
do,
because
you're
technically
City
staff
and
so
what
kind
of
limitations
you
know
in
terms
of
getting
the
word
out
there
that,
because,
for
me,
my
hesitation
in
Outreach
is
really
more
I.
C
Don't
know
what
is
you
know,
subject
to
approval
by
the
city
if
I'm
going
to
use
something
like?
Oh,
the
city
of
Asheville
is
wanting
this
or
has
this
as
a
goal
and
I
am
on
the
neighborhood
advisory
committee,
and
these
are
the
types
of
things
that
we're
working
on,
but
what
you
know
what
subject
to
approval,
what
needs
to
be
seen
before
it
goes
out
to
the
public
or
what
can
I?
Just
you
know,
post
on
a
subreddit
about
Ashland,
say
if
you
guys
are
interested
in
this.
C
This
is
going
on
at
this
date
at
this
time,
and
so
that's
kind
of
I
think
where
the
gray
area
is
for
me.
You
know
when
it
comes
to
actually
getting
the
word
out
there
like
what
you
know
what
am
I
governed
by
like.
Is
it
just
a
free-for-all,
because
obviously
I
would
want
the
information
to
be
accurate
too.
So.
K
Right
I,
I
would
say
any
of
these
projects
will
have
a
place
where
you
can
send
people,
and
so
it's
just
kind
of
picking
between
all
of
the
things
that
we're
doing.
What
do
we
want
to
make
sure
that
you
know
what
the
engagement
schedule
looks
like
how
to
get
people
to
the
engagement
that
has
been
set
up
around
that
project?
What
committees
subcommittees
are
those
projects
going
to
when
are
they
going
to
be
coming
to
council
so
that
people
can
enter
into
the
process?
Certainly
not
I?
D
K
C
Does
that
help?
It
does
I
mean
it's.
You
know,
I
guess
a
simple
thing
would
be
like
if
I
wanted
to
make
a
Facebook
post,
for
instance,
of
our
meeting
today
and
say
hey,
as
you
know,
my
friends
only
know
about
this
advisory
committee
because
I'm
on
it
and
they
did
not
know
or
hear
about
anything
about
it
before
I
was
on
it
I,
certainly
until
I
started
doing
research
hadn't
heard
of
it.
C
K
Right
so
that
and
I
I
want
those
are
all
good
questions
and
the
city
clerk's
office
is
the
one
that
has
oversight
of
all
of
the
all
of
the
approaches
that
are
appropriate
for
board
and
commission
members
to
take,
and
so
so
maybe
having
them
come
and
that
doesn't
need
to
be
part
of
your.
K
You
know
priorities
for
next
year,
but
maybe
it
would
be
good,
especially
since
we
have
some
new
visitors
to
just
make
sure
that
everybody's
clear
about
what
the
guidelines
are
for
what's
appropriate
or
not
when
you're
speaking
on
behalf
of
the
board,
when
you're
speaking
as
an
individual,
everybody
has
the
right
to
be
an
individual
and
have
your
individual
opinion
absolutely
and
then
just
being
mindful
of.
If
you
are
speaking
on
a
an
official
role
as
a
Committee
Member
or
as
a
in
your
personal
role,
sounds
like.
Maybe
that
could
be
helpful.
Kim.
N
I
think
I
hear
a
couple
things.
One
is
what
is
okay
to
share
about
your
role
in
volunteer
service
with
the
city,
and
thank
you
for
that
service
I,
when
I
first
joined
boards
and
commissions
I
had
a
similar
question.
It's
you
want
to
be
able
to
do
Outreach
and
it's
a
goal
of
this
group
Outreach
and
in
reach.
N
B
N
J
N
N
But
there's
a
second
thing
that
could
actually
be
a
goal
is
more
inreach
and
Outreach
from
your
role
as
a
neighborhood
advisory
committee.
Member,
so
right
now,
I
see.
I
was
trying
to
follow
the
meeting
on
my
way
here,
and
it
was
a
little
bit
hard
because
I
was
on
Transit,
but
I
see
that
there's
a
couple
of
plans
that
the
city
has
the
Gap
plan
and
the
transit
master
plan
and
the
independent
review
of
the
water
outage
are
examples.
N
There's
also
the
urban
forestry
master
plan,
we're
going
to
have
recommendations
for
a
reparations
commission.
It
might
be
a
useful
tool
to
have
a
section
about
inreach
and
Outreach
and
a
list
of
the
city's
current
plans
and
anytime.
There
is
a
link,
because
you
all
do
such
a
great
job,
making
sure
there's
surveys
and
Outreach,
and
these
are
awesome
volunteers
to
help
with
that.
Is
it
possible
to
have
like
a
link
on
the
agenda
to
the
city's
page?
That
has
all
the
surveys.
N
So
it's
all
in
one
place
and
you
don't
have
to
go
searching
for
it
as
a
commission
member
every
time,
there's
a
survey
there's
probably
a
way
to
streamline.
That
would
be
my
suggestion.
Another
one
is
that
this
is
not
a
full
list
of
all
the
city's
plans
that
are
currently
being
implemented.
If,
for
example,
you
took
the
climate
Justice
initiative
and
had
the
climate
resilience
scoring
by
neighborhood
that
you're
in
when
things
come
up,
you'd
be
able
to
like
kind
of
speak
specifically
to
those
issues.
N
Are
you
going
to
have
storm
water
mitigation
issues?
What's
the
city's
current
plan?
Is
there
a
resilience,
Hub
who's,
the
Outreach
person?
If
that's,
if
that's
a
vision
for
mapping
out
resources
for
your
neighborhoods
and
how
you
can
do
more
effective,
inreach
and
Outreach
in
your
role,
then
that's
something
that
we
could
be
asked
to
provide
is
something
that's
already
available
to
a
lot
of
the
council
members.
But
if
that's
something,
that's
like
a
missing
link
for
emergency
response
or
something
like
that
would
be
one
example.
N
So
let's
say
that,
there's
like
I
think
of
fiscal
year,
four
of
the
transit
master
plan
for
the
city
currently
says
that
we're
going
to
expand
to
Inca
Candler.
N
We
still
haven't
gotten
fiscal
year,
two
done,
but
let's
say
that
it's
time
to
do
that
and
it's
like
okay
I've
got
folks
that
I
know
live
in
farther
West
Asheville.
That
would
benefit
from
that.
But
do
they
know
it's
about
to
happen
and
how
to
engage
so
that
if
you're
in
a
neighborhood
meeting
or
a
community
event
or
a
concert
and
you're
like
so
you
know,
this
thing
is
coming
up
and
I'm
I
serve
on
the
city's
neighborhood
advisory
committee.
You
can
come
to
our
meetings
and
make
public
comment.
N
Things
like
that
are
probably
something
where
you
could
look
for
that
resource
tool
from
the
city
and
feel
empowered
to
do
that.
Outreach,
because
we
need
you
to
do
that.
Hopefully,
I
added
some
clarity
around
that
I.
Just
remember
when
I
was
first
on
boards
and
commissions
I
was
like.
Is
anybody
allowed
to
know
and.
N
H
Primary
goal
is,
is
to
do
this
Outreach
to
do
communication
to
let
people
know
because
people
a
lot
of
times,
don't
know
what's
going
on
with
the
city
with
these
various
projects
and
so
I
think
that's
really.
Our
number
one
goal
is
to
communicate.
You
know
to
our
groups
out
there
that
we
interact
with
every
day
like
what's
going
on.
H
You
know,
what's
happening
with
this
particular
project,
so
we
need
to
stay
informed
and
then
let
people
know
this
is
where
you
can
I
mean
you
don't
have
to
tell
them
what's
going
on,
you
can
point
them,
because
the
city
has
a
great
website
that
has
all
this
stuff.
Every
project
has
its
own,
has
its
own
site
right.
So.
H
You
don't
add
input
you
don't
have
to
tell
them
what's
going
on.
You
can
just
point
them
to
saying
the
city
is
active
in
this
particular
area
and
go
look
it
up
and
now
you're
entitled
to
your
own
opinions,
of
course,
and
you
certainly
can
express
those,
but
when
you're
expressing
your
own
opinions,
unless
this
commission
or
committee
actually
votes
on
something.
I
J
H
J
H
Really,
as
far
as
our
goal
is
concerned,
our
number
one
goal
is
communication,
and
our
number
two
goal
is
soliciting
input
from
people,
because
that
is
something
that
you
know
we
struggle
with.
Is
you
know
even
like
these
meetings?
I
mean
how
many
people
show
up
to
these
meetings,
they're
public
meetings,
how
many
people
are
watching
on
YouTube
I
mean
probably
not
very
many
I
mean
it
would
be.
My.
H
Our
two
main
goals
and
each
and
we
obviously
have
some
things,
we're
more
interested
than
other
things
and
I
think
those
would
be
things
we
can
have
of
either
a
work
group
or
we
can
have
them.
You
know
people
that
are
working
on
those
projects
come
in
and
talk
to
us
and
say
this
is,
you
know,
what's
happening
and
that
way
we're
informed
and
we'll
be
better
able
to
communicate
with.
B
B
Is
this
group,
then
different
people
could
focus
on
one
of
the
three
and
then
go
their
channels,
their
meetings,
their
work
groups
that
are
happening
in
at
the
city,
level
and
I'm,
not
quite
sure,
because
I'm
new
I
don't
know
how
to
interface
with
all
of
that.
But
there
do
seem
to
be
Avenues
through
which
the
for
those
three
topics
or,
however
many
we
choose-
that
we
could
focus
specifically
and
what
I
was
thinking
is
you
know,
then
we
would
have
not
only
the
overall
but
the
very
specific
well.
H
F
K
D
K
Like
how
do
you
all
want
to
work
together
to
to
Really
intentionally
share
information,
so
it
doesn't
feel
so
scatter
shot,
because
we
can
do
that,
I
mean
we
can
and
we
do.
We
can
push
information
to
you
guys
all
day,
long
like
there's
a
lot
that
that
of
Engagement
that
the
city's
asking
for
and
it
can
be
overwhelming,
and
then
you
all
might
have
some
insight
about
that
that
you
could
share
with
staff
as
as
we
continue
our
work.
Does
that
make
sense.
F
K
Measurable
I
think
the
goal
is
determining
what
that
looks
like,
so
it
could
be
okay
right,
that's
where
you're
spending,
so
if
you
want
to
think
about,
where
are
you
spending
your
energy?
That
being
your
goal?
If
you
are
thinking
about
what
the
intended
outcome
is
going
to
be,
it
would
be
a
connected
and
engaged
Community
right
or
it
might
be
something
like
you
know.
There
is
a
predictable
path
for
how
Nack
shares
information
with
neighborhoods,
about
engagement,
opportunities,
yeah
and
so
I.
K
E
To
be
consider
the
fact
that
we
don't
want
to
pick
something
that
relates
to
what
other
agency
may
be
doing,
all
that
community
may
be
doing
so.
If
we're
talking
about
the
missing
housing
study.
Is
this
something
specifically
uniquely
to
not,
or
is
something
that
housing
community
is
doing
so
so.
H
Yeah
I'm
pretty
sure
every
one
of
these
projects
already
has
a
group
or
a
consultant,
or
somebody
is
already
working
on
it.
So
we're
not
going
to
be
doing
like
middle
housing.
That's
not
going
to
be
our
job.
Our
job
would
be
to
figure
out.
You
know.
Where
is
the
city
going
with
this?
You
know
what
information
is
available
and
what
feedback
is
needed
and
then
communicate
that
to
people
I
think
that's
our
I
mean
we're.
H
Basically,
Liaisons
is
what
we
are
I
mean
we're
not
going
to
be
doing
any
of
these
projects
that
we
can
communicate
with
people
that
we
know
about
what's
happening
in
the
city
and
that's
a
big
missing
link
right
now
is
a
lot
of
times.
You
ask
your
average
Ash
villian
any
one
of
these
projects
and
they
don't
know
what's
happening.
I
would
bet
you.
A
But
I
think
that
we're
getting
off
because
we're
almost
time
is
getting
away,
but
I
think
that
what
we
have
to
realize
is
that
this
committee
only
makes
recommendations,
and
if
these
are
our
goals,
they
would
go
and
if
we
would
take
that
our
goals
to
city
council
that
would
be
what
they
would.
They
would
look
at
that,
so
we're
not
taking
over
what
any
other
group
would
be
doing.
It's
just
that.
We're
making
recommendations
of
what
we
think
that's
important
so
say
like
volunteer
of
the
year.
A
That's
a
goal
that
we
want
to
work
on,
how
we're
going
to
do
that.
It's
a
different
thing
and
when
you
want
to
do
it,
but
that's
a
goal
that
you
have
for
20
24.
A
working
on
the
increased
engagement
within
Asheville
residents.
That's
a
goal
that
that's
not
something
that
we're
going
to
actually
just
say
that
we're
putting
in
place
that
this
is
going
to
be
mandated
that
we
do
it's
just
a
goal
that
we're
going
to
look
into
I.
I
would
say
that
it's
hard
for
it's
different
for
me,
because
I
was
raised
in
Asheville.
A
I
know
the
communities
I
would
tell
everybody
I'm
a
community
activist,
so
I
know
neighborhoods.
When
you
talk
about
Beaver
Dam
and
what
you're
going
through
I
know.
That's
a
concern.
I
know
how
enriched
Oakley
is
and
how
far
you've
come
with
what
you've
done,
because
I'm
connected
with
those
neighborhoods
and
so
what
we're
trying
to
say
is
if
you,
if
we
want
to,
engage
and.
A
And
talk
to
neighborhoods,
we
need
to
go
to
what's
established,
you
go
to
their
meetings,
because
if
you
go
to
an
association
meeting,
they
are
established
and
they
have
they
have
concerns
and
they
have
topics
that
they
talk
about.
That
would
be
something
that
we
could
come
back
and
just
make
recommendations
that
this
is
what
our
neighbors
are
saying
to
the
city.
But
it's
that
way,
I
think
we're
getting
to
off
course,
and
it's
going
to
far
left
of
what
we're
just
making
goals
that
we
want
to
look
at
for
next
year.
That
are
important.
A
A
To
take
on
we're,
not
we're
not
going
to
take
on
the
missile
the
missing
housing,
the
middle
missing,
we're
not
going
to
take
on
that
kind
of
thing:
traffic
common!
That's
an
everyday
group!
That's
in
every
neighborhood!
It's
not
just
one!
It's
in
every
neighborhood,
and
so
every
neighborhood
has
that
same
concern.
But
if
you
have
a
neighborhood
association,
they
know
where
to
go
to
talk
about
traffic
coming
and
speeding,
so
that
that's
what
I
encourage
you.
I
A
J
B
A
We
came
up
with
what
we
already
found
out
some
things
that
we
did,
that
they
didn't
know,
and
we
didn't
know.
So
that's
a
part
of
what
you
do
is
communicating
around
the
board
with
everyone
else.
So,
let's
just
let's
just
if
it's
a
goal,
let's
just
don't
keep
going
around
and
around
and
around,
and
just
if
there's
two
or
three
major
goals
that
we
will
know
that
we
want
to
talk
about,
and
we
can
do
that
and
you
can
still
bring
that
back
around
next
month.
K
Absolutely
yeah
we
can
take
these
ideas
and
I
think
it's
so
it's
sounding
to
me,
like
increasing
engagement
with
Asheville
residences,
is
one
that
we're
interested
in
and
then
we've
got
some
work
on
our
end
like
what
we
bring
to
you.
We
know
the
things
that
are
most
important
and
we'll
we'll
plug.
We
can
make
sure
you
guys
are
plugged
in
so
that
leaves
us
with
what
our
other
goals,
what
you
want,
your
other
goals
to
be
there
I
see
up
there.
G
I
think
the
festival
in
neighborhoods
has
been
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
work
and
a
lot
of
fun
so
far,
but
we
still
don't
know
how
that's
going
to
turn
out
yeah.
A
A
I
would
it
would
not
be
dependent
on
how
this
year
would
go,
because
the
vision
would
be
every
year
that
it
grows
bigger
and
better
every
year
and
whatever
we
did.
We
might
have
missed
this
time,
because
the
working
group
did
an
excellent
job
for
the
time
that
they
had
to
do
it.
So
it's
gonna
be
all
right.
It's
gonna,
be
it's
gonna
work,
but,
let's
not
say
we're
not
going
to
do
it
next
year,
because
we
don't
know
if
this
is
going
to
fit.
N
At
the
screen
went
away,
but
one
of
the
things
that
I
saw
that
you
had
up
here
was
infrastructure
costs
and
one
of
the
things
that
we're
getting
ready
to
talk
about
as
a
council
is
the
2024
bond
package
and
Facilities
assessment.
Those
facilities
are
going
to
be
in
our
neighborhoods
and
there's
going
to
be
a
cost
involved.
N
Another
thing
I
saw
was
reaching
out
to
neighborhoods
that
are
often
overlooked,
and
that
made
me
wonder
if
there's
a
way
to
have
a
more
measurable
Outreach
effort
to
say:
does
everybody
know
how
to
get
traffic
calming
signatures
done
officially
through
the
city's
website
and
process?
If
not,
this
group
may
want
to
hear
that
presentation,
because
the
public
that's
watching
could
benefit,
and
you
could
share
that
conversation
with
your
neighborhoods.
N
If
it's
something
like
do
you
know
how
to
look
at
the
survey
process
and
get
the
self
established
data
from
the
back
end
from
the
city's
website?
You
can
do
that
as
a
member
of
the
public
and
if
you
don't
know
how
to
do
it,
yet
we
probably
could
do
a
training
session.
K
Continue
to
use
these
dots
to
make
sure
we
understand
what
we
need
to
get
in
front
of
the
of
the
committee
yeah,
so
yeah
that
sounds
good,
so
I
mean
that
sounds
pretty
soft.
It
sounds
to
me,
like
you,
all,
are
solid
on
that
that
increasing
engagement
and
then
there
will
be
more
work
right
that
will
be
measurable
on
our
smart
goals.
I
mean
we've
all
probably
done
this
a
million
times,
but
at
least
we'll
have
a
road
map
of
the
things
we're
going
to
focus
on
sounds
like
Festival
of
neighborhoods
is
another
one.
K
K
L
K
D
K
Okay,
so
is
that
something
that
we
want
to
that?
You
all
want
to
continue
to
do.
Okay.
Well,
then,
I
think,
maybe
you
have
your
three
overarching
goals
and
we
have
some
insight
into
what's
most
important
within
the
engagement
one,
which
is
great
all
right.
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
and
you
all
are
aligned
with
council's
priorities.
Good
job,
everybody
all
right
so
we'll
end
up
with
the
election
of
officers.

Well,
one
of
the
am
I
too
late
for
discussion.
I
set
up
a
question.
Thank
you.
So
one
of
the
subcommittees
would
be
the
festival
group
right.
So.
I
H
C
Because,
obviously
the
year
goes
on,
we
probably
could
either
you
know,
subcommittee
could
wrap
up
whatever
they're
working
on
like,
for
instance,
in
the
very
has
an
end
date.
So
my
only
concern
I
will
say
is,
for
instance,
for
the
festival
neighborhoods.
We
would
not
have
been
able
to
pull
it
off
if
we
only
met
every
other
month,
so
that
would
be
the
working
group
yeah.

Second,
I
did
okay
questions
well,
I
mean
all
in
favor,
say:
aye
aye,.
