North Asheville Lowes in Weaverville North Carolina

Lowe's Home Improvement Warehouse in Weaverville is almost complete with Wal-Mart not trailing too far behind. Some of the smaller stores that were to follow are not moving forward as of yet... but they will soon... or someone will! This is such a great location with Madison County, Tennessee, and Asheville so readily accesible. This move will also add to the value of land in North Buncombe and Madison County as well. Welcome To Weaveville, North Asheville, The New City!

This rock work being completed in Weaverville is hand crafted and looking great. Lots of nice accenting and landscaping going on all over the Downtown Weaverville area.

Lake Louise Playground Weaverville NC

Lake Louise is the perfect suburb park, playground, and picnic area. It is about 10 minutes North of Asheville and it is a great asset to the Weaverville community. I know when I stop by, one kid runs to play with the ducks, the teens want to jog around the lake, some of the others jump in one of the playgrounds, while the others run over to the other smaller play area. I like to hang out on the benches meeting some of the great residents here in Weaverville.

Weaverville North Carolina is a strong community with the local Weaverville Police Department backed by the Buncombe County Sheriff's Department, and North Carolina State Troopers. Woodfin is also right next door to Weaverville, so their Police always supports this area as well.

Recently Resigned Weaverville Police Sergeant found dead 12/13/08

Taken from the Asheville Citizen Times:

MARS HILL – The Madison County Sheriff's Department and the State Bureau of Investigation are investigating the death of a former police officer who resigned his position as a sergeant with the Weaverville Police Department earlier this month after he was arrested and charged with assault.

Andy Cody, 38, died Friday night or Saturday morning, law enforcement officials said Saturday. No one from the Madison County Sheriff's Department was available to provide details Saturday, though the police chiefs from both Weaverville and Mars Hill confirmed Cody's death.
“He's not with us anymore,” Weaverville Police Chief Greg Stephens told the News-Record & Sentinel. “We've lost a good man. He will certainly be missed.” Mars Hill Police Chief D.K. Lewis said he responded to the death scene overnight but couldn't comment on the case because the Sheriff's Department is investigating. Lewis was visibly upset when asked about Cody, who was once a lieutenant in his department. Lewis said he responded to the scene “for the family,” but was not involved in the investigation. Mars Hill police officers had their badges covered with black mourning ribbon Saturday as they worked directing traffic and providing traffic control at the Mars Hill Christmas parade. Stephens said he was helping with funeral arrangements Saturday morning, but said he couldn't share specific details about Cody's death.

Cody was arrested Dec. 2 at his home in Mars Hill and charged with simple assault after deputies responded to complaints of a domestic disturbance at Cody's home. “There were obvious signs of domestic violence,” Madison County Sheriff's Capt. Buddy Harwood said at the time.Released on a promise to appear, Cody then sought and received a domestic violence order of protection against Angela Tweed, 38, whose relationship with Cody was described in court documents as “unmarried, of opposite sex, currently or formerly living together.” Cody, who had worked with the Weaverville Police Department for six years, resigned the same day, Stephens said. “We're certainly going to miss him,” Stephens said, describing Cody as a “good worker; a good employee. He was a good person, and a good friend,” Stephens said. Calls to the medical examiner and the SBI were not returned. ***End of ACT story

We all grieve and mourn the death of Weaverville Police Officer Andy Cody. He was under a lot of pressure and maybe embarrased over a recent scuffle; even to the point that he recently resigned. Please let the community know what we can do to help. We have lost a great citizen.

Construction on Reems Creek and Merrimon (or is it still Old Weaverville Hwy?)

Quick shoot of the work being completed by the City of Weaverville North Carolina on the corner of Reems Creek and Merrimon Avenue. It should not be too long till this needs to become a 4 lane.
