Community Supported Development (CSD) is currently working to halt
inappropriate development and encouraging sustainable alternatives at the
Sayles Bleachery site.
A new development plan has been submitted to the City that contains
almost 400,000 square feet of commercial space in three retail "big
box" stores, smaller retail and office space, condominiums and a
hotel/convention center. Our Oakley, Beverly Hills, Haw Creek,
Viewpoint and Redwood Forest neighborhoods would suffer immense traffic and
safety hardships as a result. Such developments have had serious
negative impact on local economies nationwide.
Monday, September 16, 2001
CSD, along with other aggrieved parties, have filed an appeal, in Buncombe
County Superior Court. The appeal seeks to revoke the Conditional Use
Permit issued by the City of Asheville for this project.
