The City of Asheville’s bi-monthly radio show allows the community to take a deep dive with the City of Asheville staff and departments.

You can learn about different departments and what projects are taking place in your community.

On this episode host Sam Parada is joined by James Shelton, Community Development Division Manager for the City of Asheville, to provide information on the $225,000,000 awarded to the City as Community Development Building Grant-Disaster Relief (CDBG- DR) funding for recovery purposes. James explains the process of receiving and using the funds and engagement opportunities throughout February, which are needed and important before the implementation process can begin.
