Project Overview

In July 2024, the Asheville City Council voted to put four general obligation bond referendums totaling $80 million before Asheville voters in the November 5th general election. If approved, the bonds will be used to fund projects in the following categories:

Parks & Recreation Improvements – $20 million

Transportation – $20 million

Public Safety Facilities – $20 million

Affordable Housing – $20 million

Voters will vote separately for each category. Should voters approve all four bond referendums, the cost of debt service could result in a 2.6-cent increase in Asheville property taxes for every $100 in valuation. Approved projects would supplement the City’s current Capital Improvement Program.
