Thursday, February 9, 1984The Daily Tar Heel3 Board recommends permit for Colony Lake housing By LISA BRANTLEY Staff Writer The Chapel Hill Planning Board voted 6-0 Tuesday night in favor of a revised special-use permit for the 351 -unit Col ony Lake housing project. The recom mendation for approval of the project will be passed on to the Chapel Hill Town Council, which is scheduled to rule on the permit at its Feb. 27 meeting. The project, which had been denied a permit twice in the fall, got a breakthrough when the developers, Carolina Communities, Inc., were able to acquire a tract of land that would allow connection of Standish Drive with Old Durham Road. The move would relieve the traffic problems that residents of University Heights and Colony Woods had said would occur under a previous proposal to connect Standish Drive to Cooper Street. Construction on the Colony Lake pro ject will begin in February 1985 and end by February 1993. Under the plan, townhouses will be built on the east side of Sta&djsh D4ve,id4he land adjoining Cooper -Street avJ1 become a park that will be dedicated" taihe town. In other action, the board denied a site plan for a 132-unit residental project call ed Scarborough Square. The project is proposed for the south side of East Franklin Street between Estes Drive and Elliot Road. The planning commission staff cited lack of detailed drainage plans, lack of dual access and inappropriate design for the location as grounds for de nying the recommendation. Also in other business, the board recommended a site-plan request by the developers of Franklin Woods, a 100-unit project proposed for the north side of East Franklin Street between Estes Drive and Elliott Road. The board also unanimously approved the site plan for Airport Road Townhouses, six dwelling units to be located on the west side of Airport Road between Stephens Street and Longview Street. The board also approved a motion by board member Lightning Brown asking the Town Council to instruct the board on procedures it should use in handling site plans and zoning requests along entrance-ways.

"We were impressed with a number of the student body presidential candidates," said SCAU chairman Richard Owens. "Most were fairly knowledgeable about student consumer issues and willing to work with SCAU to address these concerns. . "But we were particularly impressed by Parker's suggested reforms of the organization of student government," Owens said. "SCAU has itself in the last two years switched from a committee structure to working on project-specific goals, and we think that this is a very necessary form to rejuvenate what has been this year a stale and lethargic bureaucracy in Suite C." Owens said Parker was the only one of the candidates who did not consider the issue of dormitory telephone service clos ed "just because some University officials have said that CENTREX and other pro posals are costly. "Other candidates have failed to weigh the cost of other proposals against the very certain increase in Southern Bell's base rate, which will come in the very near future," Owens said. SCAU members said they were impres sed with candidates James Exum and" Greg Hecht, but Parker's work with the Association of American University Students and the Student Part-Time Employment Service also contributed to his favorable rating. Concerning the endorsement for DTH editor, consumer committee member Connie Brown said: "Although three of the four candidates had excellent ex perience and were willing to work with SCAU, Jeff Hiday's ideas for changes for next year's paper were clearly the best." Susan Pugh, executive assistant for publicity, agreed, saying, "We think that his ideas for the business desk were .especially good because they will allow room to deal with consumer-oriented issues which concern all students." Hiday's proposed changes, including an interest in reviving a consumer com plaint column that ran in the DTH years ago, were regarded as the best formulated and most-needed of the can didates' suggestions, said housing coor dinator Erica Bailey. The endorsements were made by a vote from all SCAU members who attended Tuesday afternoon's SCAU-sponsored forum. Ehrlich lecture to start Carolina Symposium By BEN PERKOWSKI Staff Writer , The Carolina Symposium, a biennial event on the UNC campus since 1927, will begin March 19 when Stanford biologist Dr. Paul Ehrlich lectures on "The Long Range Ecological Effects of Nuclear War." This lecture will kick off a two-week series of lectures, panel discussions, events and debates that will examine issues of population, resources and the environment. Once every two years the Symposium brings together v specialists and concerned leaders from almost every walk of life to deliver short addresses on topics relating to that year's particular theme. Concerning this year's theme, Symposium co chairperson Wienke Tax explained, "Current policies deal with the symptoms of population growth, resource depletion and environmental degradation but do not ad dress the causes. We hope to gain a better understanding of our global environment and policy implications of threats to it so that we can help plan a long-term strategy rather than depending on repeated, disposable options." Ehrlich, 'the keynote speaker, will be followed on March 20 by Massachusetts Institute of Technology, economist Lester Thurow, who will deliyer the Weil Lecture on American Citizenship. Among the other par ticipants are Lou Harris, Michael Brown, Frances Moore-Lappe, Amory and Hunter Lovins, Anne Ehrlich, George Woodwell and Ellis Cowling. 'A' major theme of the event will be the rate of world population growth. The size of the world's population is estimated to double during the next 40 years. Charles Jenner. UNC professor of biology and a faculty adviser for the Symposium, said, "With this exponential rate of , population growth comes a commensurate demand on the finite resources of our planet. These two factors create an increasing strain on the environment's capacity to survive man's impact." Tom Brazelton, administrative assistant for the Sym posium, said, "By providingthis information,, we hope students," faculty, and "the general public will recognize the significance of these issues and begin to ask questions and objectively consider solutions. The right amount of public response might work back on the University Ketch system and help initiate a broader view of global pro blems." Tax said that whenever possible, speakers would par ticipate in a panel discussion with students, faculty members and people from related fields from within the University and across the state, and would interact with students in various informal settings. Past symposiums have had problems with publicity, Tax said, adding that she hoped.there would be a good turnout this year from both students and members of the surrounding community. Otis Graham, a professor of history and faculty ad viser for ther Symposium, said he hoped the event would stimulate provocative discussion and also reveal that the" current organization of University departments was not acceptable for the study or undergraduate education of such issues as population, resources and the environ ment. "It should be a matter of concern to the entire Univer sity community that the various departments of the University should be considered together rather than separately when studying these enormous problems," Graham said. From page 1 and at ECU. "We like being on the road, so to speak. It's a taste of making the preparations." Ketch also enjoys traveling, and as a member of the International Trumpet Guild,, he has traveled all over the coun try. "For the annual conference, we meet on different college campuses, like Arizona State, universities in Colorado, Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana University. Being a professor, it's fun to see the other. universities," he said. "I've also traveled something related to the course that munity. Jazz has an intrinsic appeal," he to Washington state. My wife's family lives there about 20 miles from the Cana ; dian border, and we plan to go back this summer." Ketch hopes to continue teaching at UNC.
