Friends –  I am very pleased to report to you that the long awaited and much needed Sunset Drive improvement project approved by the Blowing Rock Council at their July 10th. meeting will be totally funded by bonds that were approved by citizens in 2014. Mayor Charlie informed us that the exact cost of the subject improvements will be $ 1,350,700.00 fully funded by Transportation Bonds, Water and Sewer Bonds. No additional “non bond” related tax increases nor budget reductions will be required to complete this very important project. Many thanks to Mayor Charlie and Mayor Pro Tem Albert for this very welcome correction to our earlier description of council action on this project at the July 10th, 2018. meeting.

The July 10, 2018 summary and detailed information on the council meeting is now available on our website:  brcivic.org
