November 2016 General Election Bond Referendum

In August 2016, the Asheville City Council voted to put three general obligation bond referendums totaling $74 million before Asheville voters in the November 8th general election. Money from the bonds will be used for parks and recreation, affordable housing, and transportation network projects. Voters will vote separately for each category. Should voters approve all three bond referendums, the cost of debt service could result in a 4.15¢ increase in Asheville property taxes for every $100 in valuation. Approved projects would supplement the City's current Capital Improvements Program.
