Mr. Jackson:
As a concerned Asheville resident, can your office please provide me with a detailed financial accounting of city funds that have been spent to date on meetings with Bob Roepnak and the Friends of North Asheville Dog Park? This would include all meetings with any and all city staff, money spent on the Council work session, emails, time spent reviewing materials, gasoline used, and Chris Pelly's time if that's quantifiable. I know the city committed to no more than $5000 to conduct a feasibility study, and I'd like to know where we stand on that amount. With so many budget cuts and money being in the forefront at all times, it seems interesting that the city would be devoting resources to a piece of land it doesn't own and a group that has not canvassed the area in which they wish to place an unsupervised, privately-maintained "public" park.

Sincerely,

Brad
