WE’RE STARTING WITH A CEASE AND DESIST LETTER THAT WAS SENT TO AN UPSTATE MOTEL THAT’S DISPLACED SEVERAL FAMILIES. THE MOTEL SIX ON WADE HAMPTON BOULEVARD WAS FORCED TO STOP OPERATIONS YESTERDAY. GREENVILLE COUNTY OFFICIALS SAY STARTING LAST MONTH, THEY RECORDED CODE VIOLATIONS RELATED TO THE HOTEL’S FIRE ALARM AND SPRINKLER SYSTEM.

IN HAYWOOD COUNTY IN NORTH CAROLINA, THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY SAYS A MAN WILL SPEND THE REST OF HIS LIFE BEHIND BARS FOR KILLING AN UBER DRIVER. THE DA SAYS NOAH BOLDEN PLEADED GUILTY TO FIRST DEGREE MURDER IN THE DEATH OF JULIA HOLLAND. WE’RE TOLD THE 49 YEAR OLD MOTHER WAS KILLED ON JANUARY 1ST OF 2023 AT BOLDEN’S APARTMENT IN CANTON.

IT LAYS OUT FUNDING FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP’S LEGISLATIVE AGENDA. THE FINAL FLOOR VOTE WAS 217 TO 215 ALONG PARTY LINES. CONGRESSMAN THOMAS MASSIE OF KENTUCKY WAS THE ONLY REPUBLICAN TO VOTE NO. WITH ALL DEMOCRATS. THE RESOLUTION SEEKS TO REDUCE TAXES BY MORE THAN $4 TRILLION, AND AIMS TO CUT FEDERAL SPENDING BY 2 TRILLION, INCLUDING CUTS TO MEDICAID UNDER RECONCILIATION. BOTH THE HOUSE AND SENATE NEED TO PASS THE SAME EXACT BUDGET RESOLUTION BEFORE COMMITTEES CAN OFFICIALLY DRAFT THE LEGISLATIVE BILL. LEGISLATION THAT WOULD PROVIDE ANOTHER HALF BILLION DOLLARS TOWARD HELENE RECOVERY EFFORTS IN WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA COUNTIES IS MOVING FORWARD. THAT BILL WAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED BY HOUSE LAWMAKERS, AND IT NOW MOVES TO THE SENATE. THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY SAYS MORE AID WILL BE APPROVED IN THE COMING MONTHS. 646 IN ANOTHER MILESTONE COMPLETE IN RECOVERY EFFORTS WHEN IT CAME TO THE HURRICANE, HURRICANE HELENE, THAT IS N-C-D-O-T LEADERS SAY MAJOR REPAIRS ON THE WINSTON AVENUE BRIDGE IN SWANNANOA ARE COMPLETE. THE BRIDGE CONNECTS US 70 TO OLD US 70, WHICH ARE TWO MAIN ROADS THROUGH THE TOWN THAT WAS DEVASTATED BY HELENE IN SEPTEMBER. MASSIVE FLOODING WASHED OUT AREAS APPROACHING THE BRIDGE FROM BOTH SIDES. WE’RE TOLD CREWS REPAIRED THE DAMAGE, REBUILT NEARBY PORTIONS OF OLD US 70 AND INSTALLED NEW TRAFFIC SIGNALS. NCDOT WILL REMOVE BARRICADES THIS AFTERNOON.

THEY POSTED ABOUT THAT INCIDENT ON FACEBOOK EARLIER THIS WEEK, SAYING THE KIDS DESTROYED ALL THE FOOD IN THE BOX ON MAIN STREET. THOSE BOXES ARE RELOADED EVERY DAY WITH FOOD, COLD WEATHER KITS AND DRINKS FOR THOSE IN NEED, AND THEY HAVE SINCE BEEN REFILLED. THE GREENVILLE DRIVE IS CELEBRATING 20 YEARS, AND NOW IT’S PARTNERING WITH A NONPROFIT TO GIVE BACK TO THE AREA. ISABELLE MARK IS LIVE FROM FLUOR FIELD WITH MORE ISABELLE. HEY, ERIN AND DESTINY. LIKE YOU SAID, THE GREENVILLE DRIVE. THEY’RE TEAMING UP TO HELP THOSE EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. THEY DONATED $25,000 FOR A NEW PROGRAM. IT’S CALLED GREENVILLE TOGETHER A HOME FOR ALL. IT’S A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE CITY, GREENVILLE BUSINESS OWNERS, NONPROFITS, AND PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED HOMELESSNESS. NOW, THEIR FIRST STEP REHOUSING 80 PEOPLE LIVING ON THE STREETS, GETTING THEM PERMANENT HOUSING. BY THE END OF THIS YEAR. RIGHT NOW, CARVER SAYS, 65% OF SHELTERS ARE TEMPORARY OR EMERGENCY, AND JUST 35% ARE PERMANENT, SO THEY HOPE THIS DONATION WILL BE THE ANSWER TO HELP OUT THOSE WHO ARE IN NEED.

OWNER JEFF BENNETT SAYS HE ENCOUNTERED LOW SALES AND BUILDING ISSUES AT HIS BRICK AND MORTAR STORES, SO HE HAD TO CLOSE THEM AND FILE FOR BANKRUPTCY. SINCE HE PUT HIS FOOD TRUCK UP AS COLLATERAL FOR THE BUSINESS LOAN HE TOOK OUT, HE LOST IT IN THE PROCESS. BENNETT POSTED ALL OF THIS ON FACEBOOK, AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS HAD A HARD TIME GRAPPLING WITH THE NEWS. SO THEY SET UP AN ONLINE FUNDRAISER. I DIDN’T KNOW THAT MANY PEOPLE CARED THAT MUCH. THAT WOULD GIVE SOMETHING LIKE THIS, BUT WE STILL HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO IF WE’RE GOING TO BUY THE TRUCK BACK. AN AUCTION IS SET FOR TOMORROW FOR THE TRUCK, AND IF HE CAN’T BUY IT BACK, THE MONEY RAISED WILL GO TOWARD HIS LEGAL FEES. THE FULL STORY WITH A GOFUNDME LINK IS ON WYFF4.COM.
