Program helps towim residents
purchase.1 affordable housiim
By LARRY STONE
Staff Writer
The Tandler Homeownership Pro
gram is in the midst of making the
dream of home ownership a reality
for residents of Chapel Hill.
Glenn Davis, assistant director of
housing and community develop
ment for Chapel Hill, said the
program, which provides affordable
housing for low and moderate
incomes, is a joint effort between the
town and the private sector.
. The program is about one-third
complete. Of the 35 homes to be built,
11 are finished.
Although no timetable has been set
for completion of the project, con
struction has begun on the final 24
homes, and Capricorn Isler Asso
ciates is speeding up construction,
Davis said.
Davis said he is pleased with the
results of the new experience, but it
was only made possible by many
people working together. Those who
have a new home are elated, he said.
"I go to the closings and I hear,
'I have finally got a home I can
afford,' and that is really gratifying,"
Davis said. "I can say that before this
program, for low and moderate
incomes, housing in Chapel Hill was
a dream.
"After a lot of hard work, we can
see the positive experience we all have
gained. I really am looking forward
to doing another one."
The project is being built on town
owned property off Legion Road and
around the Merritt .Mill Road area,
'Davis said.
"We go in and put in the water
and sewer lines, streets and house
connections," he said. A private
developer, Capricorn Isler, agrees to
build and landscape the units.
The homeowner gets a significant
break in the cost of the project, Davis
said. As long as the buyer does not
refinance the home or move, he pays
only on the first mortgage of the
property, which is the cost of building
the home.
The second mortgage, including
the hookups by the town, is not held
against the homeowner, unless he
moves or refinances.
"What the family is getting is a
$70,000 to $80,000 home for about
$50,000 or $60,000," Davis said.
Because the program is a project
to help people with low and middle
incomes, the town has set some
criteria for citizens to become eligible,
Davis said.
To be considered, the homebuyer
must live or work in Chapel Hill, must
fall below the 80 percent mean income
level and meet the requirements of
the First Union Mortgage Corpora
tion, who is financing the venture.
"It is kind of a catch-22," Davis
said. "To be assured of a home, you
really need to be below that 80 percent
point, but First Union needs to be
sure you make enough to support a
mortgage."
The Chapel Hill Town Council has
also set up some ways to help the
families pay for their dream home
once they qualify.
One of these financing subsidies is
a principal buydown. Under this
program, the town helps the
homeowner pay the first mortgage,
Davis said.
"We give them $5,000 on the first
mortgage and add that money to the
second mortgage, which they do not
have to pay unless they move or
refinance," Davis said.
Interest rate buydown, the second
subsidy, gives the town the ability to
pay money to the lender to reduce
the interest rate it receives.
This money does not increase the
second mortgage, but it can reduce
the interest rate to a point where
people can pay it, Davis said.
Speaker lauds benefactors of UNC
By DANA PRIMM
Staff Writer
On UNC's 195th birthday, students
should praise the men and women
who helped to establish the Univer
sity's greatness, Douglass Hunt,
special assistant to the chancellor,
told about 35 people in New West
Hall Wednesday night during the
1988 Kemp Plummer Battle lecture.
The Dialectic and Philanthropic
Societies (Di-Phi) sponsored the
lecture, titled "A Small Price to. Pay
the Pleasures of Serendipity," in
an effort to promote the history and
traditions of UNC and to celebrate
University Day.
Hunt told the audience of both
students and alumni several stories
about people who were influential in
UNC's history. One of the stories
concerned Mary Elizabeth Mason,
who gave the University 800 acres of
AMERICAN
WCAKCER
V SOCIETY?
land about two miles from Chapel
Hill. The land; which she inherited
from her grandfather and her hus
band, is now Finley Golf Course.
Mason also gave $1,000 to UNC
in memory of her deceased daughters,
Martha and Varina. In return for the
land and the money, Mason dictated
that the portraits of her daughters and
her husband must be hung in a public
hall of the University.
There is some question now about
the legitimacy of the portraits and
where they should be hung, but the
University should be sure to keep its
part of the bargain because of the
importance of the contribution, he
said.
Mrs. Spencer, Martha and Vari
na's teacher, wrote a memoir of the
Masons "which is a University
treasure a treasure most of all for
what it tells us of . . . their bountiful
generosity in giving to the University
what may well turn out to be, until
now, the most valuable gift it has ever
received," Hunt said.
Spencer wrote in her 1895 article:
"Interest in public benefactors
increases as time- withdraws the
generation that knew them person
ally. Fifty or a hundred years hence
innninpc n 1 1 V m r-nnvrninn
these two sisters. I have written the
following memoir of the friends of
the University of North Carolina
A.D. 1995 which year will witness our
second centennial, and may be
expected to revive and dwell upon all
our traditions."
Hunt also told stories about former
UNC presidents Kemp Plummer
Battle and Edward Kidder Graham.
Di-Phi is the oldest student organ
ization at the University and one of
the only such collegiate organizations
left in the United . States, Kevin
Cherry, clerk of the society, said. The
other similar organizations in the
country are the Jeffersonians at the
University of Virginia and Whig and
Clio at Princeton University.
- Di-Phi tries to protect the tradi
tions and history that make UNC a
unique collegiate experience as well
as to preserve literary traditions,
Cherry said.
Many of UNC's famous alumni
were members of the organizations,
including Thomas Wolfe, former
Gov. John Morehead and former
U.S. Sen. Sam Ervin.
