Buncombe county is a beautiful place to live, and more and more people are calling it home. Our resources, although beautiful, are limited county commissioners are working on a zoning ordinance for all of the unincorporated areas of the county. If you live in Asheville Black, Mountain, biltmore, forest montreat, weaverville or woodfin, this new ordinance will not affect you.
