The Michigan Daily-Thursday, October 16, 1980-Page 3 REIMBURSEMENT FOR JULY STORM EXPECTED 'U', city may receive federal storm funds By ELAINE RIDEOUT As much s $256,000 could be reim- bursed to the city and University if emergency fund requests made yester- day to the federal government are ap- proved. The requests were made in hopes of recovering some of the $277,000 spent by the city and $65,000 spent by the University in the aftermath of an elec- trical storm last July 16. Under the guidelines of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, up to 75 percent of that amount could be reimbursed by the federal government. THE CITY SHARE could amount to $208,262, "provided it (the application) gets through all the federal offices and they all agree," said Major Walter Hawkins, heads of the Ann Arbor Office of Disaster Preparedness. According to Sgt. Harold Tinsey of the Ann Arbor Police Department, the city should hear from the federal agen- cy within a few months. But, Tinsey ad- cluding Washtenaw, were declared federal disaster areas last month after President Carter responded to Gover- Several Mich igan co unties, including Wash tena w, were declared federal the athletic campus, central campus, the botanical gardens, Nichols Ar- boretum, and the golf courses. But the University will receive no compensation for widespread damage that occurred during another storm July 27. "WE WERE THE big losers in that one," Stevens commented. "The University suffered more damage than anywhere else in the area but it still wasn't sufficient for the governor to declare us a disaster area." According to John Weidenbach, Director of Business Operations, that storm cost the University $85,000. "It's just one of those things, Weidenbach said. "We'll have to do without something else." % City expenditures on the later storm, however, were nominal. Mayor Louis Belcher stated the city is contesting expenditures not approved,; by the government including tree replacement and police and fire expen- ditures. He said the city will continue to meet and negotiate with the agency. Should there be a concurrence by the federal agency, he added, the total reimbursement would still have to cohiply with the 75 percent refundable rate. aster areas last month. Ann Arbor could receive more than $208, 000 in aid. Belcher' ded, the money might not come through fast enough to bail out several city departments that were forced to spend operating funds on storm clean-up. Tinsey said there is still storm debris that has yet to be cleaned up in certain parts of the city. SEVERAL MICHIGAN counties, in- nor William Milliken's appeal for disaster relief.

Reagan's representative refuted that position, adding that the country needs a president who feels the best days are ahead and not'behind. He also said Reagan was the one who could get the country back on its feet, pointing to his record as governor in California as evidence. CARTER'S "representative denied that Reagan would be a capable president, pointing out Reagan's heavy dependence on gubernatorial advisors while holding office in California. Resident advisor Marsha Moody, who co-sponsored the debate, expressed disappointment that the conflict was not keener. "Most of the people here were really informed," she said. "It will help me make a decision in November," Moody continued. Engineering Senior Dave Stockton, who was in the audience, said the forum provided no new insights into the cam- paign. The mock debate was originally slated to include a questioning panel composed of reporters from The Detroit Free Press, The Detroit News, The Ann Arbor News, and The Michigan Daily. The journalists who had planned to be there from the first thijree newspapers were unable to at- tend. Shapiro may v isit Chi na University President Harold Shapiro may travel to China next spring to work on establishing .a student and faculty exchange program with universities there; faculty members say. I ;rofessor Vern Terpstra, a member the University's China Coordinating Committee, the faculty group organizing the trip, emphasized, however, that plans are tentative and that there is "no firm commitment" yet. "Right now, the committee is working on the feasibility of (the trip)," according to Cara Casurella, a Univer- sity staff member who attended the committee's first and only meeting so far this year. Terpstra said the proposed trip would serve to increase research oppor- tunities in both countries, expand cultural and intellectual exchange, and "strengthen ties" between the U.S. and China.
