AVERY COUNTY — The voters of Avery County municipalities have spoken through the casting of ballots on Election Day on Tuesday, Nov. 2, and the unofficial results are in.
SUGAR MOUNTAIN â Village Manager Susan Phillips updated the council on two bills in the General Assembly that would reduce the villageâs ability to enforce its own ordinances during the latest meeting of the Sugar Mountain Village Council.
As the first order of business, the council approved a budget amendment to purchase a roof mower, as well as to complete the paving for a golf course cart path. Funds were provided by the villageâs Tourism Development Authority (TDA). The council also updated the dates for its budget meetings for May 25 and June 27.
As part of new business, the council approved the Toe River Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan. Phillips said that the plan helps towns and municipalities prepare for the event of a disaster and how to go about applying for funds from government agencies.

SUGAR MOUNTAIN â The Sugar Mountain Village Council convened for its monthly meeting on Tuesday, Jan. 19, in which council members quickly swept through the nightâs agenda by approving a bevy of ordinances and amendments.
After calling the meeting to order, the council opened a public hearing related to an ordinance amendment meant to ensure contactors maintain a neat and orderly construction site while building within village limits. After receiving no public comments, the council closed the hearing, moved on to new business and swiftly approved the ordinance amendment.
â(The amendment) is a clarification of our ordinance to set forth the expectation for contractors during construction. It relates to how contractors will conduct their business when building things on the mountain, as well as where things interact with our public infrastructure and what steps must be taken related to that process,â Village Attorney Four Eggers said.
