“First, foremost, and always, our main focus is to identify the true needs of our clients and fill those needs with the best North Carolina health insurance (BCBSNC®) products on the market and the best customer service in the industry.” -- Jerry Ballard, Owner, Jerry Ballard & Associates

In spite of his 34 years in the health insurance business and his many professional accomplishments and industry awards, Jerry Ballard is a modest man who never loses sight of what is really important – taking care of his clients.

After a 20-year career with Mutual of Omaha, Ballard launched his own independent insurance agency in 1995. “I knew I could service clients better by showing them a variety of products from different companies, instead of trying to fit one company’s products on all,” Ballard explained.

When he brought his NC health insurance business to the Internet in February of 2000, Ballard worked hard to create a friendly website that was easy to understand and easy to get around. His goal was to make his website “a close second” to meeting his clients in person.

His steady focus on his clients’ needs in person and on the Internet has quickly made Ballard the #1 Salesman for Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina (BCBSNC®) Individual Insurance Sales.

When all is said and done, nothing speaks louder about Jerry Ballard than these statistics:

• 80 – 90% of his clients refer family members and friends to him
• 90% of his clients stay with him year after year.

Choose from the best insurance companies and plans in the industry.

If you have any questions about a certain plan, just call Jerry Ballard & Associates for the answers. He and his four-person support team know these products inside out; they will explain anything that is confusing and guide you to the best plans for your personal needs.

Every step along the way, you will be treated to exemplary customer service by the Jerry Ballard team.

The Town's first charter did not mention a Mayor, but in 1871, H.B. Guthrie, magistrate of police, was being called the Mayor. Guthrie was hired by the Commissioners to "keep the peace" and preside at meetings of the board. An 1879 charter amendment formally established a mayoral position and invested it with police power, but it was not until 1895 that the modern Mayor/Council structure began to evolve. A charter amendment increased the size of the governing board to include a Mayor elected by the citizens; the first Mayor so elected was John H. Watson on May 5, 1895.

The history of the Town is linked to the University. The Town was, in fact, created to serve the University. When the University of North Carolina Board of Trustees chose the area around New Hope Chapel as the site for the first State university in 1793, they also named a committee to lay out a town adjacent to the site.

The original map of the Town, drawn in 1798, shows 24 two-acre lots and six four-acre lots wrapping around the northern, western, and eastern fringes of the campus. These 30 parcels, sold at public auction to the highest bidder, were squared off along six streets including a proposed 290-foot-wide "Grand Avenue" running out of the campus through what is now Henderson Street and the Cobb Terrace area.

By 1859, the Town covered 820 acres forming a rectangle bounded roughly by Sunset Drive, Penick Lane, Tenney Circle and Gimghoul Road. The Town retained these boundaries for almost a century with the first modern annexation taking place in 1950, bringing in the Northside school (currently known as the Orange County Multi-Purpose Center on Caldwell Street Ext.) and 275 acres known locally as the Strowd Hill area. Annexation since then has proceeded at a steady pace, and the Town now encompasses about 21 square miles.
