Sierra Club Endorsements for Buncombe County Elections
It is important that we elect candidates that understand the importance of protecting the beauty of our county and the importance of maintaining our quality of life. We need elected officials that recognize that the key to our economic growth depends on continuing to attract tourists, new residents, and businesses that come here because of our wonderful natural environment.
