although he still thought the plans could
be scaled down, it was possible the
regional council would approve the
plans as they stand now.
"One of the possibilities (during the
upcoming review) is that we may come
to understand 'By God, they've got it at
the lowest possible cost'," he said.
UNIVERSITY Hospital Director Jep-
tha Dalston was also hopeful yesterday.
"We have the opportunity to spend
some more time in a planning mode
(during the second regional review),
Dalston said.
But in spite of the optimistic
statements from both University of-
ficials and regional health planners, it
may not be easy for the two sides to
compromise on the hospital plans.
For one thing, the University ap-
parently still has no legal obligation to
alter the hospital plans despite CHPC
criticism.
THE REGIONAL council cannot for-
ce the University to change the plans, it
can only recommend approval or
disapproval to the department of Public
Health, which has final say on whether
a proposed hospital will be built.
Dr. Hermann Ziel of the Department
of Public Health yesterday outlined
another facet of the second review
which could prevent a compromise on
the hospital plans: "At this point in
time, I think the ball is really in CHPC's
court."
'U' Hospital director Dalston said
that cuts in the project would come only
if regional planners produced specific
programs that could be cut from the
hospital plan without harming the
hospital's efforts to fulfill its teaching
and research missions.
"We will probably be more precise,
more specific than in our previous
review," Terence Carroll, executive
director of the CHPC, said.
But Carroll could not name any
specific proposals to cut costs in plan-
ning the new hospital, nor could he
specify how much he would like to see
the University reduce the cost of the
project.
Ravitz also said he could not name
specific ways to cut costs in the hospital
project.
He said he would like the University
to consider buying or using Wayne
County General Hospital. The Univer-
sity has already rejected such a pur-
chase.
Although Ravitz had no other specific
suggestions for cutting the new
hospital's cost, he was generally op-
timistic.
"Some give and take seems to be
called for," he said.
