Protect Lexington Ave’s small businesses, residents & greenspace!
Thanks for your interest in telling the City of Asheville and Duke Energy NO LAND SWAP for a substation move. After all, Duke says the substation can remain at its current site and be improved to meet future energy demand. Together we can stop the substation move and make a difference. Here’s what is at risk with a substation move:
- 60+ small businesses
- 1000+ residents
- 11,000 square foot urban forest canopy
- 10 city blocks impacted on historic Lexington Avenue, turning tree views into a grim, gray landscape, covered with graffiti
If you’ve signed the petition, thank you and if not, please do that now. We’ll keep you posted on any upcoming meetings or activities where you can share your voice and support the cause.
