4 TUESDAY, JANUARY 6, 2004 Satellite tract plans released BY BROOK CORWIN UNIVERSITY EDITOR DEC. 2 UNC officials say the University is running out of space. And they say that in a few months, the University’s final plan for a satellite campus will be run ning out of time. University officials formally unveiled the draft plan for Carolina North on Hiesday, along with a timeline planning for the Board of TVustees to approve the entire half century project in March. Officials cautiously predicted that the plan, which will develop THE Daily Crossword By Frances Burton ACROSS 1 Heroic recounting 5 Sandbank 10 Bit of reality 14 Fiery gem 15 Smackers 16 Composer Stravinsky 17 Leading indicator 19 Extinct bird 20 Draft letters 21 Pub pours 22 Thingamajig 24 Ants' home 25 Pell- 26 Wooden shoes 29 Tape cartridge 33 Aromas 34 Woods of Paris 35 "That Cat 11 36 Bird with a laughlike ciy 37 Pickling solution 38 Yale grads 59 Old MacDonald's refrain 60 Tizzy 61 Stockings 62 Philosopher Kierkegaard 63 Store lure DOWN 1 Weeps 2 Mimics 3 Guys' sweeties 4 Still and 5 Gets a noseful 6 Temporary residence 7 Aahs' partners 8 Beer choice 9 Generosity of spirit 10 Impatient expression 11 Keenly eager 12 Secret lingo 13 Horse's gait 18 Bides time ■ ■ ■ ■ Ipi£ I ■ wfi I IB W A I T I iNjG TOEIXjHALE A N T O NiMH O L M|U S E R S.Z A T eßa J.N.G Mi|l|e|sßm|e|a|nßp|a|dTsl 39 Vigoda and Lincoln 40 Provoke 41 Ta-ta, Gigi 42 Sequoias 44 Sharp fold 45 As soon as 46 Lion's locks 47 Open balcony 50 Indira's dress 51 Wind dir. 54 Genesis: abbr. 55 Vehement supporter 58 Con's quarters BRAKES CftQL ACE Pads and Shoes - Except Ceramic •V /w ■ Pads - Most Cars & Trucks Coupon Must Be Presented At Time Of Estimate • Expires 1/20/2004 .

Such a rapid timeline is reeded, officials said Tuesday, because of a growing demand among faculty and staff for additional space to conduct research. “Even with all the growth on campus, we don’t have the space to meet the needs of students and fac ulty,” said Tony Waldrop, vice chan cellor for research and economic development.

The plan also calls for the construction of 13,750 deck parking spaces, 1,250 surface parking spaces and 4,125 on-street spaces. In a media briefing Hiesday afternoon, officials stressed their openness to revising the plans based on community input. The number of parking spaces, tor instance, could be reduced sig nificantly if multimodel trans portation alternatives such as new bus routes or a light rail line were developed in conjunction with the town. “This is very much a draft plan,” Waldrop said. “We will be revising it.” Douglas Firstenberg of Stonebridge Associates, a real estate advisory firm assisting UNC with the project, estimated infra structure costs for the plan at SIOO million. He added that he is work ing with UNC’s Division of Finance and Administration to develop a business plan that will make many of the projects self-liquidating. Waldrop said funds for develop ment costs could come from dona tions to the University’s Carolina First fund-raising campaign, fed eral funds for the overhead costs of research, or partnerships with out side corporations conducting research on the campus. But officials reiterated that such partnerships will not turn Carolina North into a research park. The executive committee will consider only corporations with proposals that will promote the University’s mission of research, teaching and public service. With the draft now unveiled, Waldrop said he is anxious to solicit feedback from the commu nity. The University has pledged to meet with any community mem ber concerned about the project, he said. That input, Waldrop said, will be used to design a final draft to be approved by the Carolina North executive committee and the BOT. Construction on Carolina North cannot begin until the closing of Horace Williams Airport, which the N.C. General Assembly has mandated must remain open until at least Jan. 1,2005.

Brad Wilson, chairman of the UNC-system Board of Governors, asked the board to delay its vote on a proposal to raise the nonresident cap from 18 percent to 22 percent. “We want to do it right, not fast,” he said. “(The concerns) are real and cannot be taken lightly or ignored.” The request effectively tables the months-old proposal spear headed by UNC-Chapel Hill Chancellor James Moeser. At the board’s September meet ing, Moeser introduced a plan that would allow system schools to exempt as many as 4 percent of their academically superior non residents from the 18 percent cap. In the months since, BOG mem bers have floated at least three alter natives to the proposal. “Because the alternate drafts advanced in recent weeks differ substantively... it seems appropriate to delay any action by die full board and to ask (the Educational Planning, Policies and Programs Committee) to engage in further review and delib eration,” Wilson wrote in a memo to board members. The planning committee meets at 1 p.m. today and is expected to strike the original plan off the full board’s agenda. All proposals then would return to the committee. Wilson, who said he rarely receives e-mails regarding board policies, has received as many as 50 e-mails about the proposal, mostly opposing any increase in the cap. The public’s main concern is the displacement of N.C. resi dents from state schools. BOG member Leroy Lail, secre tary of the planning committee, (Tiff Daily (Tor MM said the board has gotten a lot of responses from across the state. Board member Jim Phillips said he thinks the delay is the right course of action. “With all the dif ferent ideas on the table and no reason to rush headlong into this, it makes sense to take a step back.” UNC-system President Molly Broad said Wednesday that the delay will give the board time to consider each campus’s needs through the alternate proposals. “I think the proposal that was advanced was a responsible pro posal,” she said. “(But) I’m not sure we have yet completely evaluated what’s best for the aspirations of each campus.” Legislators also have weighed in on the cap increase —some prais ing the cap, others considering action to reverse it if it passed. “We have heard from legislators, and appropriately so,” Wilson said. “The legislature funds the University. All of the legislators I have heard from, their point of views have been well-stated and have not been threatening.” But, Wilson said, the main caus es for the delay are the three alter native proposals circling board members’ desks. One would establish cap exemp tions only at the request of indi vidual campuses, while another would increase enrollment for cer tain campus-specific programs, such as teaching schools. The last would raise the cap by 4 percent only if out-of-state tuition were increased by as much as $2,000. Moeser released a statement Wednesday in response to Wilson’s proposal to delay action on the cap. “We advanced the discussions in good faith, and in the context of our goal to be the best that (the University) can be for the state of North Carolina.” Contact the State National Editor atstntdesk@unc.edu.
