Mashkis em do rses-.conso Udm tim
By JEFF WHISENANT
Staff W riter
The president of the Chanel Hill-Carrboro Chamber of
Commerce endorsed consolidation of the two towns into one
municipality Wednesday.- citing improved benefits for local
businesses. -
"The business community would benefit from the
consolidation." Chamber president Mel Rashkis said. "If the
towns were together, we could have a much more balanced
business life."
Rashkis was part of a three-speaker panel discussing Chapel
Hill-Carrboro consolidation at a meeting of the local chapter of
the League of Women Voters. Chamber member Roger Messer
discussed the historical implications of a merger between the twe
towns. Jake Wicker, of the UNC Institute of Government,
outlined the legal aspects of a town merger.
According to the pattern set by previous city mergers,
consolidation would cause little change in taxes and financing.

"There's very little difference in the property taxes of the two
towns," Wicker said. "The taxes of the consolidated town, would
probably vary little from the present."
However, federal community-development funding would
change. The consolidated town would receive funds for only one
project, as opposed to the separate funds each town currently
receives.
Due to the town's historical differences, some had feared a
merger of the communities would not work. Since Carrboro's
recent historical preservation effort, though, the towns could
merge more comfortably, Messer said.
"There are no radical differences in the towns," Messer said.
In North Carolina, municipalities can be merged in two
different ways. Wicker said. The state General Assembly could
pass a bill merging the towns, but a more common mode of
consolidation is for the towns involved to establish a charter
commission to study the merger, he said. In this case, a public
referendum may be called but such a move is optional.
