ABOUT THE COALITION
The Stop the Cliffs/Save Swannanoa Mountain Coalition is a local, community-based group of organizations and individuals who believe the Cliffs at High Carolina is bad for Swannanoa Mountain and its surrounding communities.
We educate and mobilize people in Western North Carolina so that the voice of the community can be heard and the damaging construction can be stopped until an alternative can be negotiated.
We advocate an alternative to this massive, gated development that preserves green space and wildlife habitat, protects sensitive ridgetops and water resources, defends family farms and working families, and ensures the rural nature of our communities.
To join the coalition, please leave a comment below or email StoptheCliffs@gmail.com. Or you can call (828)230-1404.
The bulldozers at High Carolina are destroying our mountain heritage every day. Now is the time to act to preserve Swannanoa Mountain and the rural flavor of our local communities. Join on as a Stop the Cliffs Coalition member and Save Swannanoa Mountain!

Special Skills or Time to help with the Coalition:
I am interested in starting a Yahoo group that will assist people concerned with stopping The Cliffs to to communicate. Is there one yet? If I do not hear that there is, I will probably start a Yahoo group for this purpose.

I agree with oppisition on developing in the mountains
of Fairview and Swannanoa. Why does some one want
to destroy the last frontier of mountain beauty there?
Residents in the area will not be happy to have mud
water, sediment running all over the roads, fields, gardens
etc. Nothing will grow if this kind of destruction is done.
With this economy like it is everyone will be trying to raise
food and trying to survive in the area. Why take the
beauty away that has been there for umpteen years?
Enough has been destroyed there now. And to much
building has been done. When hurricanes come what
happens? Do you know what happened at Peaks Creek
in Macon County, NC. Think of all the destruction the
state has to take care of. Which ends up with the tax-
payer. Thank you
