The Asheville Water Disagreement continues to make headlines, although little new seems to be announced. Even the photos are recycled. The latest publication claims Hendersonville was not interested in the regional authority. It just happened that they needed help with their XXXXy sewage system at the same time. Folks at the Metropolitan Sewerage District, which will likely control water and sewer for Asheville and Hendersonville, gave a different impression almost a year ago.
Legislators are now drafting bills to require a merger of Asheville’s water system and the MSD. They are expected to be rammed through the General Assembly ASAP.
