of Marshall alio testified
involvement with the Jail ministry
Bray, Rios did not take the stand in his
own behalf during the sentencing phase At his May trial
in Buncombe County, Bray took the stand to tell the court
he was sorry for murdering the trooper.
Defense attorney Forest Ball concluded hisvevidence
by presenting a letter written by Rios in May of this year
to District Attorney Tom Rusher. In the letter, Rios
agreed to testify against Bray during his trial in Bun
combe County Superior Court.
Rusher did not call Rios to testify against his co
defendant.
On Friday, the jury recommended that Rios receive a
life sentence. Judge Pope also sentenced Rios to an addi
tional 60 years for his conviction on armed robbery,
larceny and breaking, entering and larceny charges. He
is expected to be transferred to Central Prison in Raleigh
sometime this week to begin serving his sentence.
Water
Supply
?Caatinued from Page I
joint water source Woodfin and
Weavervllle are currently purchas
ing water from the Asheville Bun
combe County Water Authority. Mars
Hill is under pressure to make expen
sive repairs to the town's spillway at
the Upper Laurel reservoir which
currently supplies the town's water.
Marshall Mayor Anita Ward asked
for a report on the Ivy River project's
findings thus far.
Gary McGill of McGill Associates
the town's engineer, has been retain
ed to make the Ivy River study
McGill said that flow tests indicate
the Ivy could supply as much as 40
million gallons per day under]
average rainfall conditions. At low
flow, the Ivy (till would produce 10
million gallons per day. adequate to
serve all three towns.
McGill said they are currently stu
dying the best location for a plant on
the river. He said the take-out point
would likely be located between Mar'
shall and Mars Hill
?
Tests on water quality in the Ivy
River indicate the water could be
treated for human consuption using
conventional treatment facilities.
McGill said he is currently 'studying
the potential service area for an Ivy
River plant. An Ivy River water plant
would require at least one pumping
station, probably located at the
source, to provide water to the three
towns.
Weaverville Mayor Reese Lasher
invited Marshall to join the Ivy River
similar study at Hunter Creak
Usher told the other officiate. "My
personal opiate; to th?t we Save te
find out about Ivy River first It
(Hunter Creek) may be an attar
native and we shouldn't daaa aw
eyes b> it."
Earlier, Lasher told the officials,
"Census Bureau information In
dicates that Weaverville will be the
fastest growing area in Buncombe
County in the coming years. That
growth will undoubtedly spill over in
to northern Buncombe County, liars
