- Asheville city hall's budget is out. In response to locals' desperation after the devastatiom of Helene they're... Pushing a massive 8% tax hike. Combined with a similar move from the county locals are facing a 14% tax hike. Their big priority is raises for cops and high-level officials.🧵 #avlnews
