Alumna Proposes Using Gerrard as UNC Chapel Chancellor Moeser says he will consider a religious use for Gerrard Hall as UNC makes plans to renovate it. By Emily Drum Staff Writer JUNE 14 - University officials say they will consider a proposal to develop Gerrard Hall for use as a non-denomi national spiritual facility when renova tions begin later this year. Bronwyn Leech, a 1998 graduate of the UNC School of Journalism and Mass Communication, submitted the propos al to Chancellor James Moeser in May. “It’s something that I felt a need for when I was a student there,” Leech said. “The facility would be used by different denominations and by different groups so it’s a less intimidating environment to explore different ways of doing things.” The University could choose to incorporate Leech’s proposal into the current restoration plans for Gerrard. Provost Robert Shelton, chair of the University’s facilities planning commit tee, said that while Moeser will make the ultimate decision, options for using the building will be reviewed by the Department of Facilities Planning and various other committees before any recommendations are made. “If it’s a well-thought-out use, it needs to be used in competition with other viable options,” Shelton said. Bruce Runberg, associate vice chan cellor for facilities services, also said that any suggestions for the use of Gerrard Hall will be considered. He said UNC is seeking to hire a his torical preservationist for the campus. The committee will not begin consider- '•‘S? S lislrlfe Is-iSC-l* Call 962-0252 From B:3oam-spm.

The building was finished in 1837 as the second campus chapel. It originally served as the primary religious center on campus and as a general meeting space. Sophomore Brandy Dykhuizen of Surf City said she thought the original purpose of the building should be hon ored, but she would not use such a space herself. “It’s probably going to end up being predominandy Christian, and everyone else will feel uncomfortable to go there,” she said. NC Hillel Executive Director Or Mars said he thinks the idea is good, in theory. “I think it could pose some chal lenges to pluralism as well as church state issues, but if we could overcome that, it would be a positive step forward.” Jan Rivero, campus minister of the Wesley Foundation, said she thought it would be a valuable resource. Both NC Hillel and the Wesley Foundation already have their own spaces for stu dents to worship. Scott Vermillion, area director for UNC’s Inter Varsity Christian Fellowship, a campus Christian group that does not have a designated meeting space, said that his group would use such a space. Some students, including Muslim junior Yusuf Ahmad, said they would not oppose the proposal but would probably not use such a facility them selves. “If this is going to work, the pri mary focus has to be on sharing knowl edge of the different religions, (rather) than practicing religion.” Emily Drum cart be reached at edrum@email.unc.edu.

Fare-Free Busing Factors Into Budget By Emily Canaday Staff Writer JUNE 28 - The Chapel Hill Town Council cleared the way for fare-free busing Monday as part the town’s $57.3 million budget. The budget also combines the Transportation Fund tax rate with the General Fund tax rate to form a total tax rate of 50.4 cents for the 2001-2002 fis cal year, which is 7.4 cents lower than the current rate of 57.8 cents. But these numbers can be deceiving. This year the county assessor deter mined that Chapel Hill homes increased an average of 25 to 30 percent in value. So, even though the tax rates are lower than in previous years, residents will pay Chapel Hill Dance Club Could Open in August Paperwork and contractor problems have delayed the opening of the club located in a former movie theater. By Emily Canaday Staff Writer JULY 12 - Construction on the nightclub NV, which was scheduled to open in late February, has been slowed because of a violation of the North Carolina Building Code and the owner’s submission of false information on the building permit application, Town of Chapel Hill Building Inspector Bobby Pettiford said Tuesday. According to state law, a licensed contractor must be used when the cost of remodeling a leased building exceeds $30,000. Brent Lee, the owner of NV, exceeded this amount by s2s,oooand falsely stated on his permit application that he was the owner of the building, Pettiford said. The club, in the former Ram Triple Theatre location, has long been antici pated as anew addition to Chapel Hill nighdife. The three-story club will exceed 10,000 square feet and will pro vide live music as well as well-known DJs. But on May 16, Pettiford issued a stop-work order, halting all construction I 1 | | !

This additional revenue will raise the salaries of town employees, allow for the addition of 22 new town personnel including police officers, firefighters and public works crews and help provide for free Chapel Hill Transit service. Seventy percent of student-voters supported a student fees increase in a February referendum to subsidize the implementation of fare-free busing. Instead of paying over S2OO for a bus pass, students now will only have to fork over a mere sl7. “The students really wanted this,” Council member Kevin Foy said. “The University said it really wanted it and on the building until a licensed contrac tor was hired and filed with the town. Lee has recently hired Providence Development Group of Greensboro to oversee the project, but because he has not filled out the building permit, the town does not recognize this develop ment as legal. “That should be up to the contrac tor,” Lee said. But under town regula tions, Lee is required to sign the build ing permit. Lee began working this week on completing installation of a light and sound system. But the town prohibits construction until the work order permit issue has been resolved. “Until the order is lifted, all work done on the building is illegal,” Pettiford said. Lee originally planned to open NV in February, but his plans were delayed after problems with his former contrac tor. I I cut and save!!

It’ll help them deal with the loss of parking spaces on campus in the next two years as growth goes on.” Carolyn Elfland, associate vice chan cellor for auxiliary services, said the University will experience parking deficits as the bond-financed construc tion and renovation program unfolds over the next few years. “We will sacrifice 500 spaces in the fall and in four years lose up to 2,700 spaces during the height of construc tion,” Elfland said. “We’re not looking at temporary solutions, we’re looking at permanent demand.” The 75-cent-per-ride fare will cease beginningjan. 1,2002, and the hours of four routes, the C express, the S, the F, “I wanted to do things one way, and the contractor wanted to do things his way, and since it is my club I thought it was time for him to go,” Lee said. “I thought since I was running the show that 1 could avoid these types of delays, but obviously I couldn’t.” Lee would not reveal who his con tractor was.
