Updates on the Asteria Storyliving Community development:
In an open letter, the non-profit citizens’ group "Haw River Assembly" is urging Disney and its development partners to consider environmental preservation measures during this project's development.We fear this valuable public land and the Haw River it adjoins will be degraded by the removal of the forest nearby, and the introduction of lights, noise and roads. We challenge Disney to apply the concepts your company has committed to in The Walt Disney Company 2030 Environmental Goals to the Asteria Storyliving community. “Disney is committed to taking meaningful and measurable action to support a healthier planet for future generations as we operate and grow our business.”
