The City of Asheville will co-host a forum to garner community input or buy-in for how the city will go about availing a sum of public dollars, from an as yet unidentified revenue stream, to private parties for loans for green building retrofits. The loans will be repaid through a special tax assessment. The Energy Independence Town Hall Meeting will be held at 5:30, Monday, at the city’s Public Works Building at 161 South Charlotte Street.
