4 MONDAY, JANUARY 14, 2008 Report advises ending growth moratorium Council to hear recommendations BY MAX ROSE ASSISTANT CITY EDITOR The Chapel Hill Town Council will hear 2 recommendation tonighi not to renew an eight month moratorium on growth in the Northern Area. The moratorium is scheduled to expire Jan. 31, and a staff report dated today suggests that extend ing it might be illegal. The report cites an N.C. general statute that allows towns to extend moratoriums only when there are “new facts and conditions' or when the town has "taken all reasonable and feasible steps ... to address the problems or conditions leading to the imposition of the morato rium." The report concludes that there are not new facts or conditions to justify extending the moratorium. Town Manager Roger Stancil recommends not extending the eight-month moratorium in a memorandum for tonights coun cil meeting. The council generally does not make decisions the same night as public hearings, council member Ed Harrison said. “We don't rush things," he said. Although the council might not vote on the issue tonight, the impact of the eventual decision will shape how the Northern Area is zoned in the future. “I think (the moratorium) has made everybody stop and look and realize that there are still are some questions' said Del Snow, who chaired the Northern Area Task mafflc Bljoppe JJ w\\h Us Order from our 1972 . . 00 menu at 1972 prices!

Even if the mora torium is not continued, there will still be an opportunity' to make a step forward." The moratorium was enacted in May in an effort to control and manage expansion. It put a stop to all development along a portion of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and Weaver Dairy and Eubanks roads. The moratorium faced opposi tion from developers whose proj ects were halted. The town successfully defended a lawsuit brought in October by the C.A.I. Group VII that questioned the moratorium's legality. The group is attempting to build Triangle Orthopaedics on Perkins Road. The group filed a second chal lenge in late December, but no ruling on that challenge has been made. The council will also hear recom mendations and citizen comment on amendments to the comprehen sive plan for the Northern Area. The Northern Area Task Force, formed March 2007, worked during the moratorium to form a vision for the Northern Area, which is the first thing many peo ple see entering Chapel Hill from Interstate 40. The task force finalized a con clusion in late August that stressed “density, design and diversity’ as the guiding principles. Stancil is advising tonight that the council amend the comprehensive plan to include the recommenda tions of die task force.

Snow said that even without an extension of the moratorium, it is important that the town use mod eling tools to measure the cumula tive impact of development. “When you are doing it parcel by parcel... it makes it complicated," she said. “Which is why you need to do it right the first time."

News Tar Heels get lift from bench BY MIKE EHRLICH ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR RALEIGH Sunday's women’s basketball game between No. 3 North Carolina and bitter rival N.C. State was officially scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. But for sopho more forward Jessica Breland, it started much, much earlier. "Actually I prepared for this dur ing preseason," she said. “When I was running and stuff, it was like, ‘Oh, I’ve got to go ahead and run because we gotta play State." Breland, who adds size and raw athleticism off the bench, was play ing for her second time in hostile Reynolds Coliseum against the team she said she considers to be UNC’s biggest rival. After enduring a road loss in her freshman campaign, she entered Sunday eager for revenge. “Between Duke and here, I would say State is the worst," she said of the atmosphere in the Wolfpack’s home stadium. “I just didn't want to lose. I was determined not to lose." Her preparation and attitude paid off Sunday, as she helped the Tar Heels to a 79-70 victory. As usual, North Carolina's frontcourt flour ished behind seniors Erl ana Larkins and LaToya Pringle. But the contri butions of Breland and junior Iman McFarland off the bench were instru mental in outlasting the Wolfpark. The two reserves combined for 19 points and 12 rebounds, while the entire Wolfpack bench mus tered eight points and 10 boards. All six of McFarland’s rebounds were on the offensive end, and the two forwards had just one total turnover in 41 minutes of work. “You could say that we’re X-fac tors because we both play in and out and we work on a lot of defense," Breland said. “We just bring a lot to the team because LaToya and Erlana are really great and they’re veterans. So when they're tired, we have to come in and keep up the pace." On the other side of the floor, McFarland swiped two steals and Breland rejected a game-high four shots.

State on Sunday. Breland came off the bench to score 10 points. ing ACC scoring and rebounding leader Khadijah Whittington to 15 points. The Wolfpack star commit ted six turnovers before fouling out in the second half. The duo also had a lot to do with UNC’s 42-22 advantage in the paint and the 31-8 difference in second-chance points. “They were just trying to bang us across the lane and we tried to switch them side to side." Pringle said. “Both teams were resilient and we tried to get as many catches as wc could." Solid bench play was especially necessary because of some person nel troubles for UNC. Freshman Rebecca Gray was sidelined with a stress fracture and junior Rashanda ultt Daily (Tar Hrrl McCants needed relief after encoun tering early foul trouble. But coach Sylvia Hatched said these deficiencies actually left UNC with a significant size advantage. “We’re actually bigger because we re playing when Heather (Claytor) is out and Rashanda. I mean we’ve got at least three when Rashanda's in we’ve got four kids that actually played in the post in high school." But Hatchell didn't forget another factor that must always be considered in rivalry games. “And Jessica Breland, she was really fired up for this game." Contact the Sports Editor at sports@unc.edu.
