Good News Asheville - August 29, 2026 - Issue #117
Saturday, August 29, 2026
A Note From DylanFEMA's writing another check for $137M - good to see, weird that it's still needed this far out. The Urban Trail markers are getting some love downtown, and the city just made it easier to build more housing than one house per lot, which, county-wide, is kind of a big deal for a Saturday.
