The Weaverville Town Council appoints boards and committees to help guide decision-making in Weaverville and to hear and make decisions that require special procedures. The Town is always seeking citizens wishing to participate in local government through service on a board or committee.
Most appointments are for three year terms and do not provide any compensation for services.
Pursuant to North Carolina law the Weaverville ABC Board is appointed by Town Council.
The board’s mission is to control the sale of spirituous liquor and promote a customer-friendly, modern, and efficient store.
This board serves to set policy and adopt rules in conformity with North Carolina’s laws and rules regarding the sale of alcoholic beverages. This board consists of three members that are appointed by Town Council.
The Planning Board is generally responsible for advising Town Council on matters pertaining to land use and planning issues. Code amendment related to development regulations and zoning map amendments cannot be considered by Town Council without first receiving a recommendation from the Planning Board. This board also reviews development applications for compliance with subdivision standards and conditional zoning district applications for reasonableness and consistency with the Town’s adopted comprehensive land use plan.
