From staff reports
Chapel Hill political activist Joe
Herzenberg announced Wednesday his
candidacy for the Chapel Hill Town
Council.
Herzenberg, who served on the
council from 1979 to 1981, said in a
news conference Tuesday morning that
his major concerns were the quality of
life in Chapel Hill and working for a
more open municipal government.

South Campus dormitory residents
may have to wait up to three more
months before a traffic light can be
installed at the intersection of Ridge
Road and Manning Drive, the state
traffic engineer for the district contain
ing Chapel Hill said Wednesday.
The traffic light was requested by the
University in April, but the process of
getting the light erected is not taking
much longer than normal, said engineer
Dwight Kelly.

Amateur theatrics were the first order
of the evening at the Chapel Hill
Planning Board meeting Tuesday night.
A 90-minute workshop, aimed at
educating area residents about the
elements of design in good site plans,
was presented as a play with local
engineering and architecture experts
and town planning staff as the principal
actors.
In its regular meeting following the
workshop, planning board members
discussed the procedure for filling a
vacancy caused by the resignation of
former board member Lightning Brown
on August 22.
Board Chairman Alice Ingram said
that she did not think that the Town
Council intended to read vertise for the
vacancy, and that selection would
probably come from the resurrected

Herzenberg, 44, said that the council
was not as open as it could be to Chapel
Hill citizens, and he added that impor
tant town issues were being obscured
by a council that too often resorted to
emotional appeals to allow for rational
public discussion.
The council should also be concerned
with controlling growth, Herzenberg
said.
"Chapel Hill has suffered too much
step. Second, the money for the signal
must come from a fund in Raleigh, and
that's been done.
"Right now, we're trying to set up
a work order."
Jack Zemp, dormitory governor for
Hinton James, said a light was badly
needed at the intersection. "It's getting
so bad, I'm getting at least one report
(complaint) per day. WeVe had reports
of people getting hit not hard, but
bumped."
Zemp estimated that at the end of
last year, at least three students had been
hit, but none were injured seriously.

Board members also questioned
Roger Waldon of the Chapel Hill
planning department about what con
stituted an illegal violation of the N.C.
Open Meetings Law. Brown, in a DTH
interview after his resignation, cited a
new committee system implemented by
the board as a way of circumventing
this law.
Planning board members recently
established four committees to divide
the work load and encourage more in
depth study. One of these, the site
committee, has been criticized because
it might encourage members to discuss
official business while at a development
site instead of at regular public
meetings.
Waldon advised the board members
that whether they intended to discuss

is especially concerned with Interstate
40 area development, he said.
Herzenberg said he would also like
to see a new library, more park space
and. the development of moderately
priced housing.

for this campaign would try to involve

as permanent residents, in local politics,
tation for the University, said there had
been some problems with the division's
survey to determine if the light was
justified.
"Their first survey said that there was
not enough traffic to warrant a traffic
light," Clayton said. "We told them that
they came at a bad time (during spring
break), and they should come back
when school started again.
"So they came back during the school
year and decided that it was a high
enough priority to request the funding."
"The original holdup was funding,
now it's a cycle-related holdup," she
said. .
official business or not, it would be
better to post the required media
notification for such trips as if they were
regular meetings.
"If you have a quorum going to visit
sites, you would be in a situation to
have to have notice," Waldon told
board members.
In other action, the planning board
votedt 9-0, to recommend that the Town
Council implement the suggestions of
the Task Force on Entranceways calling
for the development of a Master
Landscaping Plan and an Entranceways
District to regulate development along
major entranceways into town.
The Appearance Commission had
previously endorsed such a recommen
dation, but it had not been endorsed
by some members of the town planning
staff who cited the $30,000 to $35,000
estimated cost as prohibitive.

Herzenberg moved to Chapel Hill in
1969 after graduating from Yale
University.
He lost a race for Town Council in
1979, but was appointed to fill a
resigned member's seat later that year.
He failed to keep his seat in the 1981
election, however.
Four Town Council seats will be
decided in the Nov. 5 election.

Kelly said the installation of the light
' could take a while longer than normal
because the division is in the process
of changing contractors. "It's a special
case that cropped up at this time," he
said.
In a letter to the University, the
division stated: "It is anticipated that
it will take from 90 to 120 days for the
equipment to arrive. Once the equip
ment arrives, construction can begin."
If the equipment, about $29,000
worth of lights, hardware and poles
arrives early, construction can begin at
once, Kelly said.

The workshop preceding the meeting
was the highlight of the evening,
however, and former board member
Gina Cunningham received credit from
board members for initiating the
workshop, which was filmed by Village
Companies for later broadcast.
"Both the Planning Board and the
Town Council had concern that there
was no basis for denying plans that met
all the requirements but had poor site
design," Cunningham said.- "The Town
Council did eventually approve an
amendment to the Development Ordi
nance that included elements of design,
but that's how it the workshop came
about."

Uliassia offers arms reduction
MU.S. space testing stiopped
From wire reports
MOSCOW At a U.S.-Soviet
pre-summit meeting, Russian Pre
mier Mikhail S. Gorbachev offered
Tuesday to radically reduce nuclear
arms if the United States would stop
its space weapons testing.
U.S. senators said, after a long
Kremlin meeting, that Gorbachev
could possibly accept some space
weapons research in any arms
negotiations.
Sen. Sam Nunn, D Ga., said the
Soviet leader's statements were
heading in the direction of arms
control. Nunn said he urged Gor
bachev to bring up this matter at the
November U.S.-Soviet summit in
Geneva, Switzerland.
Strike in S. Africa ends
JOHANNESBURG, South
Africa Leaders of South Africa's
major black mine workers' union
said Tuesday that the strike against
five gold mines and two coal mines
was stopped.
The decision to halt striking after
less than three days came when mine
employers threatened to dismiss
miners and evict them from the area,
permitted by South African law.
The strike cancellation has
reduced the possibility of violent
reaction in the mining industry and
stopped the threat on two of South
Africa's principal exports.
