Show Notes

For every question Asheville officials have answered about what happened with the city's water system over the holiday calamity, another hangs in the air, unanswered. Host Matt Peiken talks with AVL Watchdog's John Boyle, the dean of shoe-leather journalism in Asheville, about the checkered history of the city’s water system; how the city handled public communications in the latest failure, which left tens of thousands of residents and businesses without water over Christmas week; and the road ahead for the committee tasked with looking backward and forward.
