Town to increase say in gown's affairs
By TAMMY SLAYDEN | September 28The Town of Chapel Hill will gain more power over the University's planning projects starting Friday. The Chapel Hill Town Council decided Monday to accept the planning staff's interpretation of a new state law that shifts the balance of the area's two main land owners - the Town and the University. The two bodies will have to follow local zoning regulations when developing all projects that do not involve buildings because of a technical correction added to a bill meant to clarify city and county planning issues.
