She Satty (Tor MM New county buildings slowly come to table Commissioners to discuss tonight BY SPENCER GIPPLE STAFF WRITER Tonight’s Orange County Board of Commissioners meeting could get the ball rolling on bringing a handfiil of long talked-about facili ties to the area. At their 7:30 p.m. meeting in Hillsborough, commissioners will figure out the next steps to bring anew senior center and an ani mal shelter to the county and hear an update on the progress of the county’s acquisition of the Triangle SportsPlex property. The Southern Orange Senior Center will be built on the site of the Southern Human Services Center facility at 2501 Homestead Road in Chapel Hill. But before construction begins, the commissioners must award the contract to Resolute Construction Company of Chapel Hill the con tracting company that submitted the lowest estimate at $5,110,773. Commissioners Vice Chairman Barry Jacobs said the board is likely to award the company the bid tonight. “The old center is cramped and outdated,” he said. “At the new cen ter, there will be more opportuni ties for programs, more space and better kinds of facilities as well.” Reubin Gillis, Resolute Construction project manager, said the company has built sev eral structures in Orange County, including the Chapel Hill Senior Take 15/501 South toward!

He said the company would be happy to undertake the project. “(Senior centers) give senior citizens a lot of life,” he said. “And they actually extend their lives by keeping them mentally and physi cally active.” Gillis said the company plans to start construction on the center in about three weeks, and the project should take 10 to 12 months. Once the county acquires the SportsPlex in Hillsborough, a second senior center the Central Orange Senior Center will be on the way. Jacobs said that under the 10-year-old deal, the county has given $400,000 every year for the SportsPlex to be managed as a pub lic facility. Now, Commissioner Stephen Halkiotis said, the county wants to purchase the property and open the second senior center in conjunction with the southern center. He said the acquisition is logical. “It’s taking advantage of an oppor tunity that will lower the cost to use the SportsPlex.” The county now expects to pay around $5 million for the complex. Halkiotis said he hopes the pro cess will be done by the end of the year. “It’s just a matter of getting all the little ducks lined up in a row.” But it will probably be much lon ger before Orange County has anew animal shelter, Halkiotis said.

Halkiotis added that the new shel ter must be constructed because the University will reclaim the shelter’s current site at 1081 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd within three years. “We can’t just relocate over night,” he said. “So obviously that’s something we have to start plan ning now.” Jacobs said he and the other com missioners understand the impor tance of having such a shelter. “I don’t know if having one in every city is mandated by law,” he said. “But it’s certainly something mandated by decency and care for other living beings.” Jacobs added that last year the U.S. Humane Society determined that the current shelter is outdated. “These will certainly be state-of the-art facilities,” Halkiotis said.

News U.S. supresses insurgency THE ASSOCIATED PRESS BAGHDAD, Iraq U.S. Marine jets Tuesday attacked two bridges across the Euphrates River near the Syrian border to prevent insur gents from moving foreign fighters and munitions toward Baghdad and other cities, the U.S. command said. A Marine statement also said U.S. and Iraqi forces destroyed a “foreign fighter safe house,” lulled two foreigners and arrested three others during a Tuesday raid in the same area as the bridge attack. Elsewhere, Iraqi civilians said they could see smoke rising TViesday from the northern city of Tal Afar, where fighting has been raging for days between U.S.-Iraqi forces and insurgents said to include foreign fighters. The U.S. command said two American soldiers were killed by separate bombs Monday and two were killed and two others wounded Tuesday by a roadside bomb.

The fighting occurred after U.N. chief Kofi Annan said Iraq had become an even greater terrorist center than Afghanistan under the Taliban. Attacks attributed to al-Qaida in Iraq have stepped up in the Baghdad area and western Iraq. A Marine statement said F/A-18 jets dropped bombs shortly after midnight on two light bridges near Karabilah, about 185 miles west of Baghdad. “The purpose of the strike was to prevent al-Qaida in Iraq ter rorists from using the structures for vehicular traffic to conduct attacks,” the U.S. statement said. “The munitions used in the strike were designed to crater the bridges, rendering them inoperable but not destroying them.” The clash at the safe house occurred when U.S. and Iraqi troops came under fire “by foreign fighters occupying” the building, the Marines said. “Multinational forces person nel returned fire and assaulted the building, suffering one friendly casualty when a Multinational Force soldier was wounded,” the statement said without citing the 2Q Bed Solon, Largest in the Area! * w ' d i i u ur " , p, f“ e ° ed! * UNC Students show your Mm r/I ITi rel lv/*4 SdiftAe ~7
