Asheville City Council and City of Asheville Staff encourage the community to share feedback on the consideration to name police headquarters in memory of former Asheville Police Lieutenant Walter Robertson. Please feel free to share memories, stories, or thoughts below.
I did not know Lt. Robertson. I would give great deference to those members on the force who did know him and whether they think their "office" ought to be named for him. The name on a building likely has an effect on the department's morale and those officers who will work there indefinitely. That being so, I would suggest that no person's name should be placed upon the building if it would affect the ability of the current force to do their job.
