Corandl makes plains to raise mooey for Mosemaiy' SquMr

The Chapel Hill Town Council is
moving ahead with plans to cooperate
with developers of the proposed
Rosemary Square complex after
informally agreeing this month not
to request further changes in the
project design.
uWe don't have any choice but to
move ahead," said Julie Andresen.
"We have legal obligations."
The town is planning to sell
parking revenue bonds to raise $3.5
million for the downtown projects
construction costs that the council
has agreed to provide, said Greg
Feller, administrative assistant at the
town manager's office.
These bonds will be financed by
the people who use the parking
garage, Feller said. Town officials
have not yet determined how they will
sell the bonds, but will reach a
decision once conditions are met for
closing the deal.
"If closing occurs, right at that
time, the bonds would be sold," Feller
said.
The closing deadline is scheduled
for early March, and construction
could begin by early spring if all
closing conditions have been met.
The council had agreed two years
ago to commit $3.5 million of town
money to construction of the project.
Last spring, the council voted by a
narrow 5-4 margin to continue to
support the development.
The town will own the property
that Rosemary Square is built on and
will receive 125 of the 516 parking
spaces, according to the agreement
with the developers, Fraser-Morrow-Daniels
of Research Triangle Park.
Andresen opposes the project, but
said she feels that the council's action
must reflect the will of the majority.
The overall design cannot be much
improved upon, according to Whit
Morrow, president of the develop
ment firm.
When completed, the Rosemary
Square complex will include an
underground parking garage, retail
stores, restaurants and hotel accom
modations. The square will be located
in the parking lot behind the NCNB
building at the intersection of Rose
mary and Henderson streets.
The town held a public hearing
Oct. 1 for residents to air their
concerns about the project, but
voiced opposition was low.
"We feel very good about the
public hearing and the support from
the majority of the community,"
Morrow said. "There really wasn't the
outcry of public opposition."
The council concluded after the
hearing that there was no reason to
abandon the project, he said.
Despite the council's green light on
development, some residents still
oppose the project.
John Graham, an opponent of
Rosemary Square since its proposal
and a plaintiff in the unsuccessful
lawsuit filed to stop construction, said
he thinks carbon monoxide in the
underground parking garage will be
unhealthy. He is also concerned that
increased traffic congestion around
the project will create air pollution.
Scott Herman-Giddens, another
opponent of the project, agreed that
the square will bring a tremendous
increase in traffic. But he said the
concerned citizens have exhausted
their strategies for stalling the project
"My guess would be that there is
nothing I could do," he said.
