  • Summary

  • Good morning, this is your Local Frequency Asheville for November 22, 2024.

    We start with some good news: the City of Asheville has lifted the boil water notice, a significant relief for residents and businesses alike. This comes after extensive testing and efforts to restore water quality following Hurricane Helene[3].

    In cultural events, The Grey Eagle is hosting a variety of live music performances, including Stop Light Observations with Pocket Strange tonight. Doors open at 8 PM, and the show starts at 9 PM[2]. Additionally, Tanger Outlets Asheville is kicking off the holiday season with a series of cheerful events, including a Toys for Tots toy drive from November 22 to 24, and free Santa photos starting November 30[5].

    In local sports, there are no major updates today, but we encourage you to check out the Asheville Downtown Association's events calendar for upcoming activities[4].

    On the job market front, there are no major hiring announcements today, but we recommend checking out the Asheville-Buncombe Economic Development Coalition for the latest job postings and business expansions[3].

    In real estate, there are no notable property sales or new development projects to report today. However, the Asheville Downtown Association is organizing a soft opening of downtown businesses, signaling the community's recovery and readiness to welcome back locals and visitors[4].

    From City Hall, the ART bus service has resumed normal hours and reintroduced modified routes, including the combination of routes 170 Black Mountain and 170 Circulator. Bus fares remain free until further notice[1].

    Weather-wise, we're expecting a clear day today, perfect for enjoying the holiday events around town. However, local fire officials warn that the forest is full of "fuel" for wildfires following Hurricane Helene, so we urge everyone to be cautious[3].

    In new business activity, The Grey Eagle continues to host a variety of live music events, and Tanger Outlets Asheville is offering Black Friday deals every week in November[2][5].

    Upcoming community events include the holiday market in Pack Square Park and the Boomtown Arts & Heritage FestAVL, celebrating Asheville's rich history and culture[4].

    In local school achievements, there are no specific updates today, but we're proud of our local students and athletes for their ongoing efforts.

    For great deals, Tanger Outlets Asheville is offering an extra 15% to 25% off at participating brands for TangerClub members, and new members upgrading to TangerClub Gold in November or December will receive a $10 gift card[5].

    Finally, a feel-good community story: the Asheville Downtown Association's soft opening of downtown businesses and the Doors Open Downtown Halloween Block Party have been successful in supporting the community's recovery and encouraging residents and visitors to reconnect with local businesses[4].

    This has been your Local Frequency for Asheville. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
