Bastardy
Council

meeting
on

and
council
chamber.
The
purpose
of
this
special
meeting
would
need
to
consider
authorizing
legal
action
regarding
North
Carolina,
House
bill
488
and
other
matters
relating
to
the
citywalk
city's
water
system
and
the
effects
of
House
Bill
488.
C
Mayor
move
that
Asheville
City
Council
go
into
closed
session
for
the
following
reason:
to
consult
with
an
attorney
employed
by
the
city
about
matters
with
respect
to
which
the
attorney-client
privilege
between
the
city
and
its
attorney
must
be
preserved,
including
a
potential
litigation
to
challenge
house
bill.

Motion
has
been
made
in
properly
a
second.
You
know,
council
tonight
we're
making
a
decision
to
sue
the
state
of
North
Carolina
in
order
for
us
to
keep
our
asset,
an
acid
that
I
do
not
believe
that
we
should
even
have
have
this
opportunity
to
do
this
issue.
I,
don't
believe
that
we
should
have
to
sue
the
state
of
our
water
system
because
we
are
effectively
on
our
system.
A
Over
the
last
seven
years,
we've
invested
almost
17
million
dollars
in
the
system
and
making
the
tough
decisions
of
increasing
rates
in
establishing
replacement
lines
and
doing
a
transparent
job
with
the
CIP,
and
this
is
not
the
time
for
us
to
stop
momentum.
We
are
moving
forward,
will
aggressively
meeting
the
needs
of
the
citizens
in
the
city
limits
and
those
who
are
outside
the
city
limits,
and
so
I'll
stand
with
council
tonight
and
support
of
this
resolution.
