Most council members said they thought the town had made a com mitment to the shelter when it extended a lease to the IFC to put the shelter in the old Municipal Building at the corner of Rosemary and Columbia streets. "The question is not open in any legal way," Mayor Jonathan Howes said. "AH but two members (of the council) have said we're committed (to the shelter), never mind the site." The shelter location recently became the subject of debate when the Public-Private Partnership formed a committee to study possible alternate shelter locations. Council members Julie Andresen and Nancy Preston, who want to look at other shelter locations, are members of the task force, and chairwoman Sally Jessee also attended the council meeting Monday.

The transfer, approved by the UNC Board of Trustees (BOT) on Oct. 28, called for the funds, estimated by student government at $321,000 plus interest, to be placed in an institu tional trust fund for the Student Aid Office. The transfer had been delayed until last week by the UNC investment office policy to make such transfers during the third week of the month, Morgan said.

An investigation by the student government committee Students for Educational Access (SEA) brought the oversight to light and prompted the board's action in October.
