Although council members might not support extending the time limit, Bailey said the "sunset clause" attached to the amendment would make it more attractive to them. According to the sunset clause, the ordinance will expire in about one year, so that before a year passes the council will have to review the ordinance. "Sometime about a month before it expires, the council will have to meet to form a new ordinance," Bailey said.

Limited by President Reagan in other nuclear areas, Shultz hopes to clear a major obstacle to a treaty to rid Europe of medium-range missiles in talks opening Monday in Moscow. The obstacle is the presence in East Germany, Czechoslovakia and the Soviet Union of 130 shorter-range rockets that the United States and its North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies want the right to match.

The Chapel Hill Town Council enacted this new ordinance to regulate parking after Feb. 9. Many students park their cars on public streets and onlyget them on weekends, said Lt. M. F. Clark of the Chapel - Hill Police Department Support Services. This becomes a nuisance for people living on these streets when, they cannot have visitors over because there is no place for them to park their cars, he said. "Chapel Hill has the ordinance to keep abandoned vehicles off the road," Clark said. "Sometimes they become an eyesore and are vandal ized. We have several abandoned cars we are getting ready to auction off." j The ordinance went into effect Feb. 9, but the No-Parking signs were not put up until March 23, Clark said. ' People who -were ticketed for parking their cars where the signs were erected between March 23 and March 27 could -have appealed the citations earlier, but not now, Clark said.

An officer knows how long a car has been parked by marking it, Which involves recording the license plate number, the time and place it was parked, he said. Clark said residents can no longer park their cars in front of their houses if they live on a public street. "If I left my car parked in front of my house, technically it would be an abandoned vehicle if it's left for 48 hours," Clark said. "You must park your car in the driveway." 1 ' Many students park on McCauley Street, but they must move their cars every 48 hours to avoid citations, he said. "After 48 hours, we ticket the car and notify the owner," Clark said. "If the owner doesn't come get the car, we tow it away." Clark said some dangerous places on McCauley Street make it difficult for drivers to see traffic, so the police department regulates parking there. "We want to keep it clear as much as possible for the safety of the public," he said. Clark said he realizes there are parking problems on campus and suggested that students park on University property with a parking permitStudents who do not have a permit sometimes can pay to park in private parking lots, he said. 19.00 Includes Fitting Lenses Heat 1-Year Fotow Up Care Necxsighted Onty Spherical Only With Coupon Expires 41 787 Dr.ThomasA-Costabile Optometrist 235 Elliott Rd. - Kroger Plaza Chapel Hill m m MoaFri 9-6 - 4774 Closed 1-2 C5teifOQqo r !
