Hendersonville to wipe longtime parking policy from books after NC ban

HENDERSONVILLE – The city is preparing to remove off-street parking requirements from its books to comply with a state law passed in July that bans local governments from setting parking minimums. This means that come Jan. 1, the city will no longer be able to make developers include any parking spaces in their plans, no matter the size or type of building, Community Development Director Lew Holloway told the Hendersonville Planning Board at its Nov. 12 meeting. This may not have much of a noticeable impact in many parts of the city, but in a city planner’s ideal dream scenario it could mean fewer parking lots downtown and more buildings in their place, Long-Range Planning Manager Matt Manley told the Times-News after the meeting. “Lots that are used for parking now could be developed. (We could) get more people living closer in to the core of the city, and … multi-story parking instead of oceans of asphalt,” he said.

Eagles advance in soccer playoffs with ‘next man up’ mentality

DENVER – Watching Lincoln Charter handle its business in a 3-0 defeat of Brevard in the third round of the 4A soccer state playoffs on Nov. 9, adversity isn’t the word that would come to mind for most. For the casual observer, it would likely come as a shock to find out the Eagles delivered such a performance without the team’s leader in goals and assists.
