Who is MSD and are we related to the City of Asheville?
The Metropolitan Sewerage District of Buncombe County was established under an act of the state legislature and is a local governmental agency providing waste water collection and treatment services to approximately 42,000 residences and business located in several municipalities and certain unincorporated areas in Buncombe County. The governing board is comprised of twelve members appointed by eight local governments. We are not directly affiliated with the County or City government but both have representation on our board of directors. Board meetings are held on the third Wednesday of each month at 2 p.m. at MSD Administrative offices located at 2028 Riverside Drive, Asheville, N.C. Board meetings are open to the public.
