Homeless camps at Riverbend Park and near Isaac Dickson will go

ASHEVILLE - The city has issued removal notices to homeless people at two more tent camps at Riverbend Park near a Walmart and another near Isaac Dickson school on Hill Street. City of Asheville spokeswoman Polly McDaniel said the city issued seven-day removal notices April 12 to the two encampments, which have popped up in recent weeks. The Riverbend Park site is in front of the East Asheville Walmart, while the one adjacent to Isaac Dickson Elementary School is actually on Duke Energy property, some of which is encroaching onto school property, McDaniel said.
