I have been privileged to work with Esther Manheimber on the Jewish Community Center board for two years. During her time as chairman, she was able to facilitate the meetings with a natural ease in which everyone felt included. Esther had only one agenda and that was to support an already great organization and continue to elevate the mission. I have been impressed by her sharp legal mind and ability to succinctly work on issues.
Our City Council needs a new member who is pro-Asheville. Our Council needs a legal mind to ask the right questions. Our Council needs someone who is going to get to work and not deliberate.
Vote for Esther Manheimer on Nov. 3.

Thanks for reading through to the end…
We share your inclination to get the whole story. For the past 25 years, Xpress has been committed to in-depth, balanced reporting about the greater Asheville area. We want everyone to have access to our stories. That’s a big part of why we've never charged for the paper or put up a paywall.
We’re pretty sure that you know journalism faces big challenges these days. Advertising no longer pays the whole cost. Media outlets around the country are asking their readers to chip in. Xpress needs help, too. We hope you’ll consider signing up to be a member of Xpress. For as little as $5 a month — the cost of a craft beer or kombucha — you can help keep local journalism strong. It only takes a moment.
Another letter from Ms. Moor praising the land use attorney Ms. Manheimer. Lawyers are typically selfless and not out to profit? Ms. Manheimer must surely be a unique lawyer. Exactly how long has she lived in Asheville and why wouldn’t she be for more growth if it is in her financial interest to be pro-growth? I could be wrong…………….. or right. At the very least Ms. Manheimer needs to find another friend to promote her “getting to work” selling out AVL, or maybe working to preserve what makes it unique.
