Wednesday, March 30, 1983The Daily Tar Heel3 Teen center proposed for Franklin St. By PETE AUSTIN Staff Writer Debate over whether Chapel Hill should provide support for a teen center on Franklin Street occupied much of the discussion during Monday night's Town Council meeting. The Rev. Gordon Dragt asked that the council support use of the basement of the Franklin Street Post Office as a teen night spot. Presently, the basement of the post office is vacant. "There is not much recreation dn Franklin Street that is not alcoholic," he said. Dragt said he wants high school and junior high school students to have an entertainment center where alcohol does not pervade the atmosphere. The Rev. Robert Seymour said that the last successful teen center was in the basement of University Presbyterian Church on Franklin Street. Strongest opposition on the proposed center came from Council member R.D. Smith. "Why do we want to attract teen-agers to Franklin Street, which is the center of the town," Smith said. He cited alcohol, drugs and "all sorts of actions on the street" as reasons for keeping teen-agers away from Franklin Street. "There is a great attraction for teen-agers to be where the action is," Smith said. "What will keep them from walking up and down Franklin Street after their parents have drop ped them off at the teen center?" Council members Jim Wallace and Bev Kawalec also voic ed doubt about the downtown center. "I have grave apprehensions about using the main block of Franklin Street as a teen center," Wallace said. "I have to question whether this is incompatible building use," Kawalec said, referring to putting a teen center in the same building as a court of law. A motion passed unanimously to allow the manager to work with the Downtown Chapel Hill Association on a feasibility study for using the basement of the Franklin Street Post Office as a teen center. In other action, the council heard opposition to the pro posed thoroughfare plan from Mary Lane, president of the Chapel Hill Preservation Society. "People want to come to Chapel Hill, not just through it," she said. "We urge you (the council) to delete the one-way pairings and the extension of McCauley Street from the thoroughfare plan," she said. The council also discussed the fate of the proposed enter tainment tax and the hotelmotel tax. The council decided not to submit the tax bill to the local delegation. Howes urged the council to reconsider the hotelmotel tax because a motion to ask the state legislature for approval of the tax had already been passed by the council. The motion to reconsider the tax passed unanimously, meaning that it will be some time before a hotelmotel tax becomes a reality in Chapel Hill. In budget action, Town Manager David Taylor estimated expenditures for fiscal year 1983-84 at $9,715,977. Revenues for the town will depend on whether or not the town receives general revenue sharing funds from the federal government. The deadline for the budget is June 30. However, Congress may not pass GRS before the Sept. 30 deadline. If the funding bill is not approved, Chapel Hill could fall $200,000 short of projected revenues, resulting in cuts for many town departments. If GRS is approved, a surplus of $329,000 would result, Taylor said. Council members Smith and Joe Straley both said, that the council should consider hiking the property tax as a means for raising revenues. jSgetsboostfrom Finance Committee By SCOTT BOLEJACK Staff Writer Emeritus The Campus Governing Council Finance Committee on Tuesday granted the Association for Women Students a proposed total of $9,466 toward its 1983 budget. AWS had asked the committee for $12,808. However, the money allocated to AWS by the Finance Committee exceeded last year's total by $4,401. In 1982, AWS received a total of $5,065 from the com mittee. AWS Chairperson Mary Linker said she was pleased with the Finance Com mittee's decision. There were several reasons why she thought the committee allocated the organization such a large in crease over last year, she said. "The new CGC is a lot less conser vative and a lot more understanding than last year's,' Linker said. "Also, our needs are greater. We're planning more . programs for the coming year and this necessitates more money." The biggest increase in this year's bud get was granted to SHE magazine. Last year the Finance. Committee approved $1,740 for the magazine. This year the committee proposed the magazine receive $5,000. AWS asked for $5,000 in order to in crease the number of copies it prints each issue, Linker said. The magazine's cur rent press run is 1,500 copies an issue.

Committee member Fred Baker (District 9) said $5,000 seemed like a very "reasonable figure" to him and added that the magazine "did receive a 1 (highest rating) in the qualitative review." Committee member Randall Parker (District 14) objected to the allocation of $5,000, " favoring instead a figure of $3,060 based on 3,000 copies an issue. "I think there should be a gradual increase in the number of copies considering the financial shape we're in right now," he said. AWS also received a considerable in crease in money for speakers. Last year the organization received a total of $1,050. This year the committee approv ed a figure of $2,900 for speakers. AWS had asked for $5,650 for speakers, but committee members Baker, Sherri Watson (District 14) and Jack Mohr (District 23) voiced opposition to such a figure and eventually agreed on the' $2,900 figure proposed by Baker. Committee Chairperson Doc Droze (District 22) said he was pleased with the AWS budget and complimented the or-, ganization on its budget requests. "Basically, I think they presented a well-prepared budget, but budget cuts are necessary with any of the organizations you -go through," Droze said. "At the same time, the programs warranted an in crease over past funding and we acted ac cordingly and granted more money." In a hearing Monday night, the Finance Committee proposed that the Carolina Course Review receive $6,193 of the $12,035 requested for the publication. The Course Review received a $9,575 ap propriation through the Executive Branch of Student Government last year. Finance Committee budget hearings continue today with hearings of three campus organizations.
