The Chapel Hill Presbyterian Church purchased ads for the 98 city buses. Ad content includes a Palestinian and Israeli man standing with a child and the message \"Join with us. Build peace with justice and equality. End U.S. military aid to Israel.\" Both the message and the financial backing, which came from a lobbying group called U.S. Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation, caused controversy amongst Jewish community leaders.

Abstract:
Chapel Hill’s new mayor, Jonathan Howes, has gained respect for his fairness, his ability to get things done, and his ability to get people to work together. Several of his contributions and issues are profiled, as well as the challenges ahead which will determine his re-election. Howes has repaired relations with UNC-Chapel Hill and created a growth plan, but will face concerns over a possible tax increase, local water problems, and others. All of this will have voters left to decide if he deserves re-election.
