Council workshops

The Weaverville Town Council will hold an open workshop prior to its monthly meeting Aug. 18. The board will discuss, among other ideas, the establishment of an ABC board. Councilman Gene Knoefel first suggested holding a periodic public workshop so the council can have more time to work through its agenda. No motions will be passed. It is simply an opportunity for further discussion on town matters. While the workshops may not draw the same public interest of a meeting, establishing a forum for more discussion should be a benefit to both the council and the town.
