At

Please
Hunter

this.
They
we
often
hear
so
much
about
our
football
team
or
a
basketball
team
or
baseball
team,
but
hunter
is
a
you
can
tell
from
his
shirt
there.
Hunter
is
a
Fisher
and
hunter
white
represented
North
Carolina.
Well
this
year
at
two
major
fishing
tournaments.
The
first
one
was
the
TBF
Junior
World
Championships
held
at
Lake
watery
South
Carolina,
where
he
finished
eighth
out
of
38
anglers
from
38
states.
A
A
Next,
we
have
a
proclamation.
This
is
a
proclamation
of
coach
Oh
day
we
December
the
2nd,
where,
as
it
is
fitting
and
proper
to
honor
pay
tribute
to
coach
Britton
Hollinger
as
he
begins
a
new
chapter
in
his
life
and
black
mounts
long
ago
by
the
community.
Whereas
coach
Oliver
is
a
dedicated
public
servant,
coaching
track
and
field
at
Montreat
college
coach
Hollinger
is
dedicated
to
his
family
and
community
and
strives
to
make
life
better
for
everyone.
A
He
encounters
and
whereas
coach
Hollinger
represents
the
unity
spirit
of
the
Black
Mountain
Swannanoa
Valley,
where,
as
coach
Hollinger
and
his
family
will
proudly
serve
as
the
ground
marshal
in
the
Black
Mountain
Parade,
which
will
be
young
as
I
was
saying
on
December
the
2nd
there
now
therefore
I
see
Michael
Silva
mayor
of
the
town
of
Loch
Mountain,
do
hereby
declare
December
2nd
2007
in
the
town
of
Loch.
Montanez
coach
O'day
signed
this
13th
day
of
November,
and
did
you
say
that,
unfortunately,
he's
in
the
hospital
now.
A
C
B
C
Also
would
always
like
to
thank
Angela
and
Laurel
about
their
support
for
our
committee.
We
are
realizing
on
the
on
urban
forestry
that
trees
are
an
important
part
of
Black
Mountain,
and
you
will
see
this
year
an
effort
on
our
part
to
educate
both
the
citizenry
and
ourselves
about
exactly
how
valuable
trees
are
and
we're
also
going
to
share
that
with
the
Town
Board
and
with
the
mayor,
because
they
are
extremely
important
in
in
water
and
in
air
and
in
animal
support
for
the
town.
C
We
also
have
a
formula
now
to
calculate
exactly
how
much
carbon
comes
out
of
a
town
like
this
and
so
Matt
come
in
is
right
beforehand
that
he
didn't
know
about
the
tree
mapping
out
which
you
can
put
on
your
phone.
What
we
are
going
to
have
an
all-out
effort
to
register
the
trees
here,
so
we
actually
can
figure
the
carbon
chunk
of
the
carbon
sequestration
numbers
for
the
town.
We
are
going
to
sponsor
conversations
and
we
are
going
to
look
at
how
we
can
protect
the
trees
this
year
in
some
very
active
ways.
C
E
Hello,
I'm
Barbra
wall
I
own,
the
104
Broadway,
which
is
200
feet
close
to
where
the
dress
will
build
in
my
cup.
I
just
want
to
say:
I
was
born
in
Black
Mountain
I've
always
lived
here,
except
when
I
went
to
Cola
we
two
Western
Carolina
and
then
I
went
to
Virginia
Commonwealth
University
to
take
a
graduate
degree
and
then
I
came
home
and
the
reason
I
came
home
was
because
I
love,
Black,
Mountain
I
have
mountain
fever,
maybe
Wendell
Begley
and
Maggie
might
have
it,
but
I've
always
had
mountain
fever.
E
So
I
love,
Black
Mountain
as
much
as
I
love,
my
dogs
and
my
grandchildren
and
my
son
and
his
wife
and
my
husband
to
the
moon
and
back
so
I.
Just
want
you
to
know
that
before
I
say
this,
the
trestle
building
blueprint
looks
great
to
me.
I
think
it
would
help
Black
Mountain.
As
you
come
in
off
I-40
and
come
into
Black
Mountain.
E
It
will
help
the
shop
owners
they'll
make
more
money
because
it'll
bring
in
more
people
and
if
you
folks
didn't
grow
up
here,
like
I
did
and
Maggie
would
graduate
from
high
school
together.
There
was
nothing
here
there
was
no
shops
like
there
is
on
Cherry
Street.
There
was
not
much
on
Broadway,
there
was
an
old
five
and
dime.
We
had
parking
meters
at
one
time
they
took
him
down
and
then
they
left
the
post
up
forever.
E
There
was
a
couple
of
dentist
office
and
dr.
love
had
the
building
that
I
own
now
and
Cherry
Street.
There
was
a
bus
station
and
the
Chevrolet
dealership.
That
was
the
body
shop
for
it.
Where
my
father's
is
so
I'm
telling
you
that
Black
Mountain
has
grown
and
it's
grown
in
a
good
way.
We
have
a
great
little
town,
it's
a
pretty
town
and
I.
Just
think
that
the
trestle
building
will
add
something
to
it
and
nothing's
permanent,
but
change
and
that's
hard
to
deal
with.
E
E
B
F
West
Keesler
Black
Mountain
I'm,
asking
on
behalf
of
myself
and
my
neighbors
that,
before
any
more
construction
activity
takes
place
on
less
Keesler
that
provisions
be
made
for
access
to
our
homes,
both
for
safety
and
for
daily
access.
I
also
ask
that
we
receive
reasonable
notice
when
activity
will
start
and
that
there
be
improved
communication
between
the
town
and
the
residents
when
issues
arise
when
we're
living
with
no
access
to
our
homes,
we'll
get
back
to
you
and
we'll
take
care
of
it.
Just
doesn't
cut
it.
F
I
want
to
do
everything
that
I
can
to
be
proactive,
so
it's
not
defined
myself
and
my
neighbors
without
access
to
our
homes
and
inability
of
safety
vehicles
to
reach
us
in
case
of
emergency,
six
homes
are
to
be
built
on
West
Keesler.
My
home
is
at
the
top
of
a
ten-foot
ride,
road
with
only
one-way
access.
F
Extensive
sewer
work
was
recently
done
on
West,
cotton,
Penelope
and
Alexandra.
Last
month,
all
the
residents
were
notified.
Disruption
was
kept
to
a
minimum.
All
hazards
were
clearly
marked
anything
that
stuck
up
above
ground
level
was
neon
and
the
road
was
quickly
paved
as
construction
was
completed.
So
I
know
this
is
possible.
F
Almost
a
year
ago,
I
wrote
my
it's
almost
a
year
and
my
Road
still
has
unmarked
hazards,
and
it
took
seven
months
and
40
hours
of
advocacy
to
get
the
road
to
be
in
the
passable
state.
It's
in
now
so
really
I'm
asking
that
we
avoid
this
in
the
future
and
I
look
forward
to
working
with
everyone
to
avoid
this
image.
Thank.
H
H
I,
don't
know
anybody
that
comes
here
and
doesn't
love
it,
but
there
are
some
challenges,
obviously
with
parking
and
where
it
came
to
a
head.
Just
recently
is
we
had
a
one
of
my
shop
owners
next
to
me
left
a
note
on
a
car
of
a
fellow
shop
owner
and
basically
he
said:
hey
don't
park
in
front
of
my
store.
Please
shop
owner
came
in
and
next
thing
you
know,
there's
a
lot
of
vulgar
exchanges.
I
can
park
wherever
I
want,
I
can
do
whatever
I
want.
This
is
free
parking.
H
It's
public
parking
I
can
come
and
go
as
I,
please
from
there.
The
incident
went
on
to
the
Mountain
exchange
and
what
we
found
on
the
exchange
was
there's
a
lot
of
folks.
I
think
we're
in
like
belief
that
there
is
a
parking
issue
and
that
also
there's
people
that
aren't
helping
the
situation
that
potentially
could.
H
So
what
was
nice
is
when
a
business
owner
said.
Let's
do
something
about
it.
Dave
you've
been
yelling
at
me
for
two
and
half
years
and
we
invited
about
14
different
folks
to
downtown,
including
the
mayor,
including
different
folks
in
the
room
here
tonight,
to
talk
about
these
issues
and
one
of
the
neat
things
we
went
around
and
said:
give
us
your
short
term
long
term
goals
your
thoughts.
H
What
are
issues,
what
do
you
think
is
important
and
of
those
we
listed
also
say
30
or
40
different
little
things,
big
things,
and
what
came
of
that
is
we
identified
three
major
problems
or
issues
concerns
challenges
that
we'd
like
to
just
bring
forward
to
tonight
and,
basically,
just
to
start
a
conversation
to
say:
hey,
we
business
owners
residents
are
all
willing
to
work
with
the
city
with
whomever
is
here
to
improve
the
situations
that
improve
the
challenges
and
work
together.
It's
not
about
blaming
or
you're
doing
this
wrong
or
anything
like
that.
H
But
how
can
we
all
come
together
from
business
owners,
again
residents,
town
employees
etc
to
to
solve
it?
The
first
and
I
have
a
little
sheet.
If
you
put
some
notes
on
it.
The
first
is
to
look
at
options
for
on
street
downtown
parking
regulations,
and
what
we're
talking
about
there
is,
if
you
look
at
the
main
streets
of
Broadway,
Cherry
Street,
even
potentially
Cherry
Lane
and
Sutton
Avenue.
H
Those
are
what
we
would
call
our
turnover
spots
where
people
want
to
stop
in
to
a
business,
to
pay
an
insurance
bill
to
pick
up
a
screw
from
Henson
or
town
hardware
to
pick
up
a
bottle
of
wine,
an
ice
cream,
a
t-shirt,
a
gift,
something
that
we
believe
would
be
better
suited
to
have
a
turnover
involved
and
just
to
give
you
an
idea
on
average
Monday
through
Sunday,
our
downtown
on
street
parking
is
utilized
mainly
by
shop
owners
and
their
employees
and
I
challenge.
Any
of
you,
and
that's
basically
from
9:00
to
5:00
p.m.
H
seven
days
a
week
and
by
10:00
o'clock.
Typically,
all
that
on
the
street
is
80%
bulk
of
shop
owners
and
employees,
and
that
makes
it
very
difficult
from
somebody
locally
or
out
of
town
to
pull
in
in
to
shop.
In
our
stores,
an
average
on
street
parking
space
turns
over
between
8
and
17
times.
You
can
look
at
a
lot
of
different
research
and
data
out
there,
but,
let's
just
say
we
take
the
8
number
as
a
low
number
that
we
would
love
to
see.
H
One
of
the
current
studies
in
North
Carolina
there's
been
different
ones.
One
was
in
Chapel
Hill,
most
recently.
It
showed
that
ninety
two
point,
eight
percent
of
people,
will
typically
park
less
than
two
hours
and
the
six
point
eight
typically
remainder,
two
to
four
hours,
with
only
a
tiny
percentage
parking
more
and
what
does
that
show?
You
is
that
most
people
want
to
get
in
and
out
they
want
to
eat
dinner.
They
want
to
shop,
they
want
to
visit,
they
want
to
pay
their
bill,
they
want
to
shop
for
furniture
whatever
it
might
be.
H
So
we're
looking
at
is.
Is
there
a
way
for
the
city
to
entertain?
The
on-site
parking
is
what
we
call
to
allow
a
better
turnover
system
and
we're
not
proposing
meters
we're
not
proposing
necessarily
set
regulations
or
anything
that
we
want.
We
would
just
love
for
the
city
to
look
at
there's
other
cities
out
there,
Bravard
blowing
Rock
some
have
two
hours.
Some
have
three.
H
Some
have
meters,
we
don't
want
to
destroy,
but
what
black
mountain
is
right
now,
but
at
the
same
time,
if
we
could
turn
over
these
parking
spaces
just
to
give
you
an
idea
on
Cherry
Street
there's
about
forty
four
spaces,
let
alone
Sutton,
Broadway
cetera.
If
we
could
just
free
up
20
spaces
times,
8,
that's
160
parking
spaces
a
day.
If
we
could
trade,
it
3
up,
40
spaces
and
that's
taking
away
the
employees
in
shop
owners
that
are
currently
parking.
H
Their
40
spaces
would
turn
over
320
parking
spaces
a
day
and
you
can
keep
doing
the
math.
And
what
we're
suggesting
is
yes,
it's
nice.
We
could
go
off-site
and
build
a
park
garage.
We
could
do
other
things
that
may
be
in
the
long
term
will
benefit
the
city
with
the
town,
but
right
now,
if
we
could
look
at
freeing
up
some
on-site
parking,
it
could
create
hundreds
and
hundreds
of
parking
per
day
that
would
benefit
every
single
business
in
this
room.
H
Every
single
resident,
the
biggest
complaints
I
get
residents,
have
lived
here,
eight
years
and
have
never
shopped
downtown
because
they
don't
like
the
parking
or
they
avoid
the
parking
tourists
come
in
and
go.
Oh,
my
gosh.
Where
do
we
park
in
some
of
this
I'll
get
on
to
in
other
comments?
This
number
two
concerns
we
brought
up
was
improving
signage
awareness
and
improved
utilization
of
the
main
parking
areas,
and
what
we
mean
by
the
main
parking
areas
could
be
the
the
churches.
It
could
be
the
city
parking
on
the
outskirts.
H
H
So
part
of
it
is
just
an
education
of
our
businesses
to
tell
people
where
they
can
park,
as
well
as
educating
from
the
chamber
to
resources
going
out
where
Duty
Park,
where,
if
I,
want
to
come
to
buck,
Mountain
all
day
and
spin
the
date
shop.
Where
can
I
park
if
I'm
driving
into
town,
so
what
we
looked
at
was
obvious
signage
when
I
come
in
from
any
of
the
main,
for
let's
say,
eras
or
three,
is
it
basically
I
hate
to
say
it?
H
Keep
it
simple,
stupid
the
kiss
philosophy
do
people
know
where
to
park?
Can
they
figure
out
where
public
parking
is
be
it
a
church
parking,
be
it
the
city
or
wherever
it
might
be?
To
the
awareness
you
know,
and
for
me,
visitors
and
locals
that
these
are
public
areas
that
you
can
park
in
the
Methodist
Church
you
can
park
potentially
in
the
Presbyterian
Church
business
owners
should
know
this
people
from
the
chamber,
people
from
the
charter,
buses,
which
we'll
get
into
a
second.
Where
do
we
park?
Where
do
we
drop?
H
What
do
we
do
in
a
lot
of
assists
education
and
the
last
one
is
utilization,
letting
folks
know
that
there
are
options
for
all-day
parking
and
there
should
be
areas
that
aren't
for
all-day
parking,
therefore
turnover
parties
to
support
our
businesses
downtown
and
also
looking
at
again.
Where
do
we
park
upon
the
charter
bus
all
our
seven
camps
that
are
right
around
here
that
bring
kids
adults
on
a
regular
basis?
They
don't
know
where
to
park.
H
They
don't
know
where
to
go
and
I,
don't
know
that
anybody
in
the
room
has
a
set
place
at
this
point
in
time,
but
we
would
love
the
conversation
to
say
hi
charter
bus
with
43
people
from
Raleigh,
where
should
I
come
in?
Where
should
I
drop
and
where
should
I
park
today,
and
where
should
the
bus
from
Charlotte?
Where
should
the
bus
from
Clemson
that
was
here
last
week
in
two
weeks
before?
Is
this
educating
on?
Where
can
a
bus
get
in
it
safely?
Park?
Where
can
it
drop?
H
Where
can
it
not
so
again,
we
have
some
really
good
off-site
I,
think
areas
or
close
that
if
you
draw
lines
from
South,
East,
North,
West,
they're
short
walks.
If
you
know
how
to
find
those-
and
you
know
where
it
apart,
but
if
you
don't
know
the
Methodist
churches
there
you
don't
know
the
Presbyterian,
potentially
the
Baptist
Church
the
city
lot
over
those
scattered
around.
Most
of
them
can't
find
them,
and
they
don't
know
so.
Can
we
educate
our
employees?
Can
we
educate
our
shop
owners?
H
Can
we
educate
everybody
to
say
hey,
let's
work
together
to
to
help
all
of
us,
and
the
last
thing
was
look
at
better
utilization
of
parking
on
Sutton
Street.
If
you
go
Sutton
down
by
the
railroad
tracks,
there's
parking,
that's
parallel
with
the
tracks.
What
we're
suggesting
is
looking
at
that
the
road
is
extra
wide
on
both
lanes
there.
H
So
if
you
look
at
these
three
items,
we're
not
asking
a
lot
of
money,
we're
not
asking
for
a
huge
amount
of
effort
other
than
us,
meaning
the
business
owners,
the
residents
in
the
city
to
work
together
to
find
this
Ellucian,
because,
unfortunately
I
have
a
lot
of
folks
downtown
that
will
that
every
single
day
park
in
front
of
their
store.
I
have
shop
owners
that
leave
their
cars
there
over
the
weekends
because
it's
safer
when
they
go
out
of
town,
they
leave
their
cars
there.
H
So
we
have
issues
of
people
that
live
downtown
that
need
a
place
to
park
and
I'm
fully
support
that,
but
we
also
have
people
that
just
neglect,
in
my
opinion,
the
parking
and
it
hurts
the
tourism,
it
hurts
the
shop
owners,
it
hurts
the
businesses,
but
just
simply
potentially
looking
at
some
regulations.
Looking
at
improving
the
signage
I
mean
almost
overnight,
you
would
probably
gain
five
to
six
seven
hundred
parking
spots.
I
mean
what
is
that
worth
in
a
financial
value
of
building
something?
But
so
that's
why
we
came
together.
H
We
met
we
want
to
work
together.
We
want
to
share
ideas.
If
there's
anything
we
business
owner
shop
owners
residents
can
do
to
further
the
cause
and
help
the
city
help,
whoever
in
any
way,
we
would
love
the
opportunity
to
do
that.
The
shara
is
the
share
our
observations
in
part
of
that
too
I
met
with
with
Matt
today
and
talked
about
a
number
of
ideas.
I
met
with
the
chief
a
couple
weeks
ago.
We
shared
a
lot
of
good
ideas
and
a
lot
of
thoughts
and
there's
a
lot
of
little
things.
H
H
You
know
from
visibility,
to
parking
to
traffic,
to
everything,
and
so
please
understand
we're
not
pushing
anything
other
than
how
can
we
find
a
solution
to
better
the
businesses,
the
residents,
the
churches,
the
city,
everybody
downtown
to
help
it
flow
better
and
to
help
us
succeed
and,
as
we
succeed,
then
obviously
I
think
that
so
thank
you.
I
appreciate
your
time.
Thank
you.
G
Thank
you
and
your
consider.
Jinda
you've
got
the
adoption
of
minutes
on
October
5th.
You've
got
two
meetings
from
that
and
October
30th
and
November.
The
second
got
some
manage
from
there.
You've
got
two
budget
amendments.
You've
got
one
the
contributions
for
the
fireworks
for
July
4th
and
you've
got
a
budget
amendment
to
reflect
the
due
diligence
fees
for
the
purchase
contract
with
a
piece
of
property
that
you
all
had
many
motions
purchase.
I
want
to
get
your
picture
previous,
especially
called
meeting
those
your
consent
items
per
grant.
A
D
A
F
F
F
F
In
yeah,
a
citizen
Ombudsman
is
an
independent
advocate
for
individuals
who
are
asking
for
help
with
unresolved
issues
relating
to
governmental
and
administrative
services.
An
ombudsman
educates
informs
supports
and
enables
citizens
to
engage
with
and
navigate
systems
and
services
that
can
be
confusing
and
frustrating
an
ombudsman
listens,
collects
information
and
enables
both
the
town
and
the
citizens
to
create
favorable
outcomes.
For
all
this
past
year,
I
was
forced
into
a
position
to
advocate
for
myself
over
40
hours
and
7
months
to
gain
reasonable
access
to
my
home
and
have
a
passable
road
to
drive
on.
F
The
issues
are
still
ongoing
and
I
have
not
been
satisfied
and
I.
Don't
think
the
town
is
either
with
the
current
outcome.
No
one
should
have
to
navigate
these
types
of
issues
alone.
I
have
heard
multiple
stories
from
residents
about
their
ongoing
issues
with
the
town
and
with
other
residents
that
could
be
resolved
with
a
dedicated
advocate
the
perception
of
many
residents
I'm
not
saying
this
is
true,
but
the
perception
of
many
residents
is
that
the
town
does
not
care
about
their
issues.
That
the
town
only
cares
about
business
and
only
cares
about
contractors.
F
They
called
once,
or
they
called
twice,
and
no
one
got
back
to
them,
or
they
were
told
we'll
get
back
to
you
or
we'll
take
care
of
it,
and
their
perception
remains
that
nothing
was
done
to
help
them.
An
advocate
can
change
this
perception
with
great
respect
for
town
administration,
the
board
and
Public
Works.
While
this
may
be
an
aspect
of
their
jobs,
there
were
only
so
many
hours
in
the
day,
and
my
experience
is
that
they
do
not
have
time
to
devote
this
specific
advocacy
role
that
might
also
conflict
with
their
own
job.
F
G
G
To
site
Development
Corporation
in
the
amount
of
one
hundred
and
eight
thousand
nine
hundred
ninety
six
dollars
for
sidewall
construction
I
know
you've
it
the
way
we
had
if
you'll
recall
there
was
a
gap
from
the
previous
section
and
Mayor.
You
had
asked
me
about
what
that
what
that
would
mean
in
terms
of
the
budget,
and
we
got
a
change
or
today
it's
zero.
G
So
your
final
budget
number
would
still
be
one
hundred
and
eight
thousand
nine
hundred
ninety
six
dollars
for
sidewalk
construction,
and
it
would
complete
it
to
the
section
in
front
of
the
piece
of
property
that
the
town
of
Montreat
has
bought
and
they
have
said
they
would
didn't,
put
the
sidewalk
in
once
they
built
once
they
had
developed
that
piece
of
property,
as
they
would
be
required
to
do
so
they
they
would
fit
it.
They
would
finish
that
section
that
ties
back
up
to
the
gate
and
they
would
do
that
part.
G
G
Secondly,
the
the
Recreation
Commission
would
like
to
take
on
the
project
of
a
Lake
tomahawk
Park
memorial
bench
project,
there's
a
hodgepodge
of
benches
at
Lake
tomahawk.
Some
are
in
good
shape,
somewhere
in
less
good
shape,
and
so
they
would
like
to
do
a
fundraiser
that
involves
replacing
those
benches
within
Oriol
bench.
G
The
that
actually
doesn't
involve
the
recreation
commission
would
be
in
charge
of
soliciting
that
money
and
raising
the
funds
it
would
run
through
the
private
foundations.
To
then
do
them
pay
for
it,
but
I
did
I
do
want
you
all
to
be
on
board
with
with
playing
replace
there
and
then
will
they
will
have
memorial
information
on
the
benches
as
they
as
they
replace
I,
think
the
goal
I
can't
think
off
the
top
of
my
head,
but
I
think
it's
20
I
think
it's
20
benches.
G
The
the
initial
right
here
is
two
thousand
dollars
for
a
memorial
bench,
so
I
think.
As
the
mayor
had
pointed
out,
there
may
be
opportunities
there
to
to
repair
and
repent
and
make
changes
the
there
that
may
have
been
may
be
structurally
sound,
but
need
need
improvements,
and
there
may
be
some
opportunities
there
to
what
see
best
utilize,
the
money
that
we
that
we,
that
is
raised
from
the
Recreation
Commission
for
this
project.
F
G
G
G
The
so
if
you
can
get
those
applications
either
from
Angela
in
her
office,
Iran
or
online
to
December
5th
2017.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
if
there
are
some
vacancies
that
people
are
interested,
if
the
public
is
interested
in
that
there
are
some
vacancies
on
some
boards
and
commissions
that
in
the
planning
board,
an.
G
Marked
on
the
planning
board
and
the
third
alternate
for
the
board
of
adjustments.
So
if
people
are
interested
in
those,
we
would
encourage
them
to
to
get
with
Angela
and
apply
for
those
and
then
finally,
I
would
want
to
I.
Do
want
to
thank
Angela
and
the
staff
and
and
and
all
the
the
board
members
they
were
able
to
participate
in
what
we
call
townhall
day
last
week,
two
classes
of
our
two
days
worth
of
what
do
classes
three.
It
look
like
fifty
seven
classes
when
they
all
start
moving.
D
I
G
We
had
a
very
we
had
a
very
good
mean
this
morning.
I
appreciate
all
of
the
all
of
the
input
and
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
good
good
suggestions.
There.
I
would
point
out
to
that
that
we
have
worked
on
some
formalizing,
some
relations,
our
lease
arrangements,
where
they
weren't
formally
lease
arrangements
but
formalizing
this
rankest
with
with
the
churches,
so
that
there
could
be
additional
signage
with
the
Methodist
Church
and
the
Presbyterian
Church.
In
the
end,
the
Baptist
Church
to
to
to
publicize
public
parking
at
those
spots.
G
In
addition
and
and
and
dave,
was
very
open
to
this
I
believe
we,
we
did
apply
for
a
grant
with
d-o-t
to
do
a
parking
and
what
it's
a
little
broader
than
that
a
parking
in
circulation
study
for
the
downtown
about
how
about
movement
of
and
and
I
think
that
that
the
committee
members
that
he's
involved
with
or
at
least
from
Dave
perspective,
were
open
to
to
being
involved
in
that.
So
there
are
things
going
on
currently
and
we
and
we
have
secured
the
Methodist,
Church
and
I
think
actually
the
Baptist.
G
G
B
I
Far
as
the
comments
about
the
business
owners
having
to
make
room
and
make
space
for
the
downtown
visitors
and
the
folks
that
are
trying
to
find
parking
places,
we
we've
been
saying
for
a
couple
months
now
that,
until
that
issue
is
resolved
in
some
way
that
we're
not
gonna
free
up
a
large
a
lot
of
the
parking
in
downtown
Black
Mountain,
because
we've
been
noticing
that
about
10:00
a.m.
in
the
morning.
