Two UNC students to campaign for
By SALLY PEARS ALL
Editor
This November, two students
will try to give the University a
stronger voice in Chapel Hill
municipal government by running
for election to the Town Council.
Charles Balan, a junior from
Chapel Hill, and Rob Friedman,
a senior from Holbrook, New
York, have filed with the Orange
County Board of Elections office
in Hillsborough.
Balan said he had decided to run
because he felt that students views
did not carry enough weight with
the council.

"The students are still not being
listened to," he said. . . I'm
running (because) I want to have
students needs and concerns met."
In particular, he cited the town's
noise ordinance as evidence that
the council wasn't willing to take
student concerns into considera
tion. The council's restrictions of
noise levels for fraternity parties
were unreasonable, Balan said. -
"There's very little compromise
between the Town Council and the
fraternities," he said. "The Town
Council has got to realize that this
is a college town.

Council aware that not every
'student is an 18 or 19-year-old
freshman who wants to party,"
Balan added. "There are some
students who love Chapel Hill and
want to make it a better place
while they're here."
Citing the recent controversy
over UNC's new land-use plan,
Balan said he wanted to improve
the relationship between the town
and the University.
"There needs to be more coop
eration between the University's
plans and the town's," he said.

busy playing host to hundreds of
athletes and tourists.
Many restaurant managers say
they've noticed a definite increase

moved into the residence halls on
campus.
Kevin Cook, a waiter at Span-

respect."
Balan also said he was running
for council out of concern over
what he saw as excessive develop
ment in Chapel Hill.
"We're going to build another
Durham with all this construction
going on," he said. "Chapel Hill
is a nice place and we need
conservative growth.
"We know Chapel Hill is going
to grow . . . (but) we need to plan
for the growth and be conservative
in our estimates, so that we don't
have a flood of building projects
with no one occupying the space,"
not noticed a dramatic change in
business, but waitress Becky Sill
mon said she thought the business
will pick up this week, especially
now that the opening ceremonies
have taken place.
Jim Chris, owner of Ye Olde
Waffle Shop, also said he hadn't
seen a big increase in business. "It's
been a steady increase, but nothing
to brag about," he said, adding
that he had noticed more custo
mers coming into the restaurant
during the weekend.
Carolina Pride on Franklin
Street has enjoyed a definite rise
in sales, according to assistant
manager Gary Kayye. Both tour
. ists and athletes have been coming
into the store to purchase Carolina
tanks, T-shirts and sweatshirts, he
said.
Kayye said he had heard ath
letes comment that they have been
very impressed with Chapel Hill.

Balan said that he thought the
town's land-use plan could be
improved. The council passed the
plan last summer.
"I don't see the plan working,
so maybe it needs to be looked
over again and revised," he said.
"I want to keep Chapel Hill a nice
small town with a good projection
for growth."

"All the athletes like Chapel Hill,"
he said. "It's the epitome of living.
Everything is on Franklin Street."
Festival business has also been
good for several of the bars in
Chapel Hill. According to Tim
Poe, late-night manager at
Colonel Chutney's, groups of
athletes and coaches, and techni
cians from ESPN have recently
been joining the evening crowds
at the restaurant.
"They come in after the events
at night," he said. "It's been a
good, steady increase in business."
Purdy's co-owner Steve Lock
yer said the nightclub had been
getting big crowds since the Fes
tival began. "WeVe had a large
increase in business," he said.
"Last Thursday was our biggest
night we probably had at least
100 workers for the Festival and
another 100 athletes here."
