City-limit changes spur petitions
Public forum to take on annexation
BY LINDSEY LISTROM
STAFF WRITER
Residents of two neighborhoods
within two areas set to be annexed
into Carrboro have submitted
separate petitions to the Chapel
Hill Town Council in the hope that
plans for new city-limit lines might
be reconsidered.
The neighbors’ petitions are
based on feelings of connected
ness to Chapel Hill and differ
ences they see between the towns
differences that are not always
clear-cut.
The Carrboro Board of
Aldermen initiated the annexa
tion process in February for two
areas which, together, contain
321 acres of land and 288 resi
dential units in neighborhoods
located along the western por
tion of Rogers Road and north of
Homestead Road.
If Carrboro annexes the two
areas, the town would provide
residents municipal services, such
as police, fire, street maintenance
and trash collection. Residents
then would have to pay the town’s
taxes in exchange for these ser
vices.
“Taxes in Carrboro are slightly
higher than in Chapel Hill,” said
Ann Pickett, accounting clerk for
Chapel Hill.
Chapel Hill residents pay 57.5
cents per SIOO of valuation, while

NOTICE TO ORGANIZATIONS WHICH HAVE APPLIED FOR RECOGNITION AND ARE NOT LISTED AS OF THIS DATE
Please contact the Office of Student Activities and Student Organizations, Union 2501, Monday - Friday, 9:00 a.m. - 5:30 p.m., or e-mail activities_organizations@unc.edu. As Agreements and On-line Applications are processed
and criteria for official University recognition are met, this list is updated on the web at http://carolinaunion.unc.edu/activities_orgs/studentorgs.html.NOTE: Agreements and on-line applications submitted and processed
after September 29,2004, may not be listed in this ad but will appear on-line if they have met all criteria for official University recognition. r
in Carrboro the rate is 71.48 cents
per SIOO, Pickett said.
According to the U.S. Census
Bureau, the median value of a
owner-occupied housing unit in
the state is $108,300. In Chapel
Hill, the tax rate on a house with
that value would be $622.73, com
pared to $774.13 in Carrboro.
But Chapel Hill residents also
must pay a stormwater fee of
about S7B per housing unit, said
Patricia D-Archonti, stormwater
engineering technician for the
town.
Residents annexed to either
town also will have to pay a
Chapel Hill-Carrboro City School
district tax of 20.2 cents per
SIOO, Pickett said, which they
do not have to pay as residents of
Orange County.
Can-boro Planning Director Roy
Williford said Carrboro probably
would incur costs associated with
expanding its services.
Carolyn Hutchison, Carrboro
police chief, said her department
would have to expand its services
to accommodate about 852 resi
dents of the annexation area.
“We would need two additional
officers,” Hutchison said.
“Then we would realign the
patrol areas and move two patrol
officers.”
The extra officers and realigned
patrol areas would put an extra

officer on patrol in town at all
times, Hutchison explained.
The Carrboro Police Department
currently has 20 officers about
1 officer per 900 residents, the
annexation report states.
The Chapel Hill Police
Department employs 40 full-time
officers, which is about one officer
for every 1,300 people, based on
population figures on the town’s
Web site.
A resident of Highland Meadows,
one of the neighborhoods in the
annexation area, offered the prox
imity of Chapel Hill fire stations
as a reason for preferring Chapel
Hill.
“There’s a Chapel Hill fire sta
tion within about two miles (of
Highland Meadows),” Rhett
Macomson said.
“We would feel more at home
there.”
Chief Rodney Murray of the
Carrboro Fire Department said
that annexation would not create
additional pressure for his depart
ment.
“We already provide protec
tion for that area,” he said, citing
a mutual-aid agreement Carrboro
maintains with 10 other emergen
cy service operations in Orange
County.
Murray also said that whether
or not the town annexes, money
has been set aside in Carrboro’s
Capital Improvement Plan to build
anew fire sub-station in that area.
That would put some of Carrboro’s

annexation area.
But Macomson also said he
and others consider themselves to
be more part of Chapel Hill than
Carrboro.
“We have Chapel Hill phone num
bers and mailing addresses,” he said.
“We seem to be more connected.”
And Chapel Hill Transit oper
ates the nearest bus route to the
two areas.
Mary Lou Kuschatka, trans
portation director for Chapel Hill,
said she is aware of the neighbors’
petition but that the department
will wait until the annexation
plays out before deciding any
thing new.
According to the Northeast
Annexation report, newly devel
oped land should become part of
a township. The annexation areas
border the boundaries of both
towns.
Williford said the areas could not
be annexed by Chapel Hill without
revising the 1987 Joint Planning
Agreement between the towns.
“I don’t see a problem with the
boundary that has been there for so
many years,” he said. “We have sever
al areas that are on either side of the
city limits, since we share borders.”
A public information session on
annexation will be held today at
6:30 p.m. at the Carrboro Century
Center.

Any currently enrolled student who applied for membership in any recognized student organization, was denied
membership, and believes the denial was based in whole or in part on his/her age, disability, national origin, race,
color, religion, sexual orientation, gender, or veteran status, should notify the Office of Student Activities and Student
Organizations with the Carolina Union.
Recognition may be withdrawn or denied should it be determined the application contains false information, the
majority of the organization's members are not full-time, registered UNC-CH students, all major officers of the organi
zation are not full-time, registered UNC-CH students, the organization has no faculty/staff advisor, the organization
fails to comply with University policies, including University policies on non-discrimination, or if the organization
fails to comply with applicable federal, state, or local laws. Recognition status also may be changed by sanctions
imposed by student or Greek judicial procedures.

This fall, Student Stores has
seen a significant increase in the
number of textbook request forms
received by the Sept. 24 deadline
—a change that could put more
money in students’ pockets.
For spring 2005 courses, Student
Stores received 32 percent of forms,
563 out of apossible 1,762, said Kelly
Hanner, a processing assistant in the
textbook department This is up from
last spring’s figure of 24 percent
But Student Body President
Matt Calabria’s cabinet has not yet
taken action to continue the efforts
of the textbook buyback program.
Kris Wampler, chairman of
Student Congress’ Committee on
Textbook Pricing, said he still is try
ing to confirm the members of this
year’s committee. “We’re still trying
to get this thing put together.”
The increase is a result of the
past efforts made by the text
book committee, Speaker Charlie
Anderson said. “(Last year’s chair
man) Jordan Mendenhall did a
really great job of getting profes
sors to turn in the forms,” he said.
Anderson said Congress formed
the committee two years ago to
increase the number of request
forms turned in on time. Professors
must submit forms by the deadline
for students to receive higher rates
when they sell back their textbooks.

been working for several years to
create a culture in which professors
are aware of textbook prices and
want to help students save money.
The high cost of textbooks has
become a large concern as students
have faced tuition increases each
year, Calabria said. “Publishing com
panies will do anything to get you to
buy more books,” he said. “The com
mittee is in charge of informing pro
fessors that texts cost this much.”
Last year, the committee worked
in conjunction with then-Student
Body President Matt Tepper’s text
book buyback project in an attempt
to decrease the amount of money
students spent on textbooks.
Student government officials
made efforts to increase awareness
by sending out a memorandum
several days before the deadline.
But the number of forms
received for this fall’s classes
dropped slightly. Daneen Furr,
former chairwoman of Congress’
textbook committee, said this is not
unusual. Professors usually return
significantly fewer request forms in
the spring semester, she said.
“There is usually a good response
in the fall because it’s the beginning
of anew year, but it has always been
a problem for the spring because it
just seems like something else to
do,” Furr said.
