Civic Roundup covers I-26 delays, LUIG moratorium

This is the Civic Roundup for July 26, 2023 with Mark West reporting on the Asheville City Council meeting of July 25, at which progress, or delay, on two major projects, was the primary agenda item.  A report on the I-26 Connector project, which began in 1989 and is still uncompleted, and is likely to remain uncompleted until 2029, and a report on a moratorium on the city’s land use incentive grants, commonly referred to as LUIG, which are the primary means by which the municipality incentivizes affordable housing, were on the table.
