The proposal, which would put a halt to Mcarisville’s plans to buy water and sewer from Raleigh, is expected to go before the Cary Town Council in August The plan also would require the ^>proval of Morrisville town commissioners. Morrisville originally had planned to build a $12.5 million connection system to buy water and sewer capacity from Raleigh to serve both the town and the southern portion of Research Tri angle Park. Although Morrisville was close to putting the connector project out for bids, that project is now on hold because of substantial cost savings that could be realized through a Cary connection. BiUy Sauls, Mor- risville’s acting mayor, has said the town would have to spend $150,000 to lay connection pipes to Cary compared to at least $7.5 mil lion as its share of a connection system to Raleigh. Morrisville currently has a con tract with Cary calling for up to 100,000 gallons per day of waste water c^jacity and up to 400,000 gallons per day of water capacity. The latest proposal calls for Mor risville to eventually buy up to two million gallons per day of waste water capacity and three million gallons pCT day of water edacity. Cary Town Manager Bill Coleman says cost efficiency can be achieved by Cary serving as a regional provider of water and sewCT services. "It doesn’t cost the citizens of Cary anything because the others pay their own way," said Coleman, adding that one system serving all communities would cost far less than separate systems for each ccxnmunity. New project to include homes, stores Preston is going to have a neigh boring development when con struction starts in 1996 on the Vil lage of Carpenter. By the time the project is com pleted in 2005, if market conditions allow, the 685-acre development would have 1,412 dwellings, in cluding single family homes, townhouses, condominiums, ^lart- ments and other multi-family dwellings. Taking a cue from neighborhoods from the past, the newly announced development would be a mixture of business and industry surrounded by homes and open space. Resi- dOTts would be able to walk rather than drive to retail and other ser vices, according to J.W. Shearin, a Cary town plannw. The Village of Carpenter property is located beside Preston Village which is now under construction off Davis Drive. Most of the land became part of Cary during the Carpenter annexation in the late 1980s. Owners of die propCTty include SAS Institute, Inc., the developer of Preston, as well as Omer G. Ferrell, Hazel Reams Williams and James M. Edwards. What’s Going On? Read us and find out! KARATE KICKS-Brian Kiley, Justin Bishop, Steven Delong and David Fried practice kata during a karate lesson at MCC. Karate kids takes medals in contest By TAMMY HAYES They may not be decked out in colorful Spandex suits. And they may nevCT be called upon to protect the world from outer space aliens. But five local karate students took on a recent national championship in a way that would make even the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers proud. Although the Power Rangers do not train in the Morrisville Com munity Center, four karate classes are taught every wedc atffacting around 200 students. Doug Stanley, one of the karate instructors, recently took five of his students to the AAU National Ka rate Championships in Greenville, S.C. Out of his five students who competed June 27-30 with 4,000 other karate students from around the globe, four medaled. "To win or lose is not important,” Stanley said last week. "The goal is to do your best, have good sports- mansb^ and improve yourself by learning the self control and dis cipline everybody needs to survive in today’s society.” With that attitude, Stanley, who holds a third-degree blade bell in goju-ryu, taught Justin Bishop, Steven Delong, David Fried, Brian Kiley and Brian Williamson, the five natinnal competitors, his art fix>m scratch. "Every now and then, you get a group of individuals that are just good stock," Stanley said. After only two years into karate lessons, his green bell smdents have made waves. Most large karate schools Ixing very few competitors to the nation al events, Stanley said. And then only a few from each school earn meids. Th^ makes MCC’s small program stand out "It’s very unusual," Stanley said. "We just have a lot of good natural talent." But participating in a national competition takes much more than pure natural talent — just ask the Morrisville competitors. "The most difficult part of karate would be the exercise," said Bishop, who competed in the kata division. He exercises three times a week for about 1 1/2 hours each session. Kiley, the teonze medalist in kata, finds himself focusing the most on Plastering the correct forms. "Getting the technique just right is really hard," he said. "You have to do a move about 2,000 times to gel iL" But Stanley said bis students are meeting the challenge of the sport "(Karate) is a huge athletic venue," he said. "That makes it so special." Not only was the national compe tition memorable for Stanley, but the individual competitors enjoyed the event as well. "The competition made it a lot of fun," said Fried, who placed fourth in kata. "I liked the sparring," Bishop added. "The best part for me was getting that third pl^," Kiley said. Stanley said xie of the reasons be enjoyed the national competition was because it gave his students the opportunity to test their abilities. "That level of competition is so much higb^ than what you wcHild get locally,” he said. "I’m extreme ly proud of all of them." Delong, placing fifth in sparring, claims he Started karate to improve his flexibility. Bishop said learning better self defense was his reason for taking lessons. "I just wanted to see how it was," Kiley said. "I take karate mainly for the ex- pCTience," Fried noted. While Stanley’s students began karate for different reasons, be said they all receive benefits by partici pating in the spent. Unfortunately, Williamson, the gold medalist in kata and silver medalist in sparring, could not at tend the interview. "He’s just kind of a namral," Stanley said of Williamson, a stu dent who has already won eight gold medals this year. "He prac tices bard, he’s got bis heart in it and it just pays off for him. "I’m extremely proud of how all of the students did," Stanley said. "They earned themselves very well and I received lots of compliments abouttinem. "I’ve just got some real good kids towmkwith." m DEMONSTRATION~Kirk Miller, left, listens as David Rigsbee instructs him on how to operate the new $4,800 defibrillator. The machine is used to help restore victims’ heartbeats at the scene of an accident. Volunteers bring experience, skill to department By TAMMY HAYES Morrimlle...there has been an accident. A child is involved. Within minutes, rescue personnel appear on the scene. Traffic has slowed to a crawl as motorists peer out of their windows, craning their necks to get a glimpse of the scene beyond the flashing blue and red lights. Sirens blare as an ambulance leaves for the hospital. A few by standers are being interviewed by the police while another officer directs traffic. Other rescue person nel examine a tattered vehicle. Sitting a short distance away is the child with a blanket around her. She’s only been slightly injured, but she is frightened. Both her parents have been seriously hurt. A volunteer firefighter walks up to the child, crouches down to her eye level and hands the girl a stuffed teddy bear. This simple gesture is just one way voldhteer fiitfigbters — most often associated wifli extinguishing Mayes and saving lives — affect a community. Morrisville firefighters have been affecting the community since 1955 when about 15 volunteers started the Morrisville Fire Department as an independent opaaiion. Through the years, the station has expanded. And in 1988, the department hired its first paid firefighters with funds partially provided by the town. Now, the fire department employs 32 part-time career firefighters and has 25 volunteers and two trucks. Fariiftf this year, the department was taken over by the town. "We’re all d^ndent on each ofiier," Tony Chiotakis, the Mwris- ville fire chief says. "As far as the level of training and the level of ex pertise, the volunteers are right with the paid staff. They’re just as professional as the career firefighters." Chiotakis was a volunte« fire man in MorrisviUe for 20 years be fore being named the chief. Other voluntew firefighters who are still in Morrisville aftCT 20 years of ser vice are David Rigsbw and Rory Meacham. "It gives you a good feeling, being able to help the community and your neighbe^," Rigsbee says. "I’d want someone to help me if I nee4ed it." "I don’t know what I’d do without iL" Meacham says. "I do it for the sense of accomplishment as well as the camaraderie." Through the years spent as volunteers, Chiotakis, Rigsbee and Meacham have seen Morrisville grow. And with the town’s r^id growth comes new challenges for the fire departmenL Many of the rural sections Chiotaitis is in charge of do not have fire hydrants, and with the ex treme growth of Cary, the Morris ville Fire Department has been called on to help its neighboring city out "The growth of Cary has had a major impecL" Chiotakis says. His stfttinn serves almost 19,000 people in an area that extends to DuiWn County in the north and the Raleigh Durh^ Intematicmal Airport in the easL meets the j^x and YRAC fire districts in the south and even encompasses part of Chatham County in the west. These territories now include major hazards for fire wotko’s as large businesses surround the area. "It used to be my greatest worry was if the farm supply stme caught on fire," says Meacham.
