Special Called Work Session Meeting

The Town Council will hold a special called work session on August 13th to receive an update from IEM International regarding the Town's ongoing FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) projects related to disaster recovery. The session will cover a wide range of projects, including improvements to roads, water systems, buildings like the library and town hall, parks, and recreational facilities. This presentation will provide a status report on these projects, highlighting both progress made and any challenges encountered in securing FEMA funding.

This work session is primarily informational, with no formal votes scheduled at this time. However, the discussion will center on key projects like the Emergency Operations Center and Veterans Park, with decisions pending from FEMA regarding relocation requests for some facilities. Residents may be interested in learning about the status of these projects, which impact various aspects of our community’s infrastructure and services.

For those interested in learning more, the full agenda and supporting materials are available on the Town of Black Mountain website at www.townofblackmountain.org, and a QR code provides easy access to the information. The meeting will be held at 8:30 AM in Town Hall Council Chambers, and accommodations are available for those needing assistance.
