Custodial History
The records of the Housing Authority of the City of Asheville were acquired by UNCA in July 2007, and the legal transfer of ownership occurred on October 16, 2007 when the Asheville City Council approved the transfer of the material files and photographs and provided a subsidy for the processing of the collection. Since then, additional materials were identified and acquired in 2008. Additional materials were transferred to UNCA in 2011.
Processing Information
Initially processed by Special Collections staff, students, and volunteers, 2007-2012. Physical reprocessing and finding aid updates for the Redevelopment Commission files by Gene Hyde, 2015.
