g <br /> Rod Visser <br /> April 12, 1995 <br /> Page Two <br /> The County's contribution to the club to date, has been: <br /> 1) staff support (meaning, providing some training and <br /> guidance, providing a repository for their incoming <br /> mail ) <br /> 2) since it's 11/01/91 inception, the club has met the <br /> first Monday of each month, in the Emergency Management <br /> Training Room. I felt this was justifiable since they <br /> are an intimate part of the emergency management <br /> response family, and more directly tied to this office <br /> than other support agencies. <br /> 3) we erected an 85 foot pole at Emergency Management, to <br /> mount their antenna; also, designated a workstation in <br /> the E.O.C. - for their equipment. <br /> I feel these contributions are considerable and should be taken <br /> into account in making a decision on their request. I would like <br /> to see what the County does now to continue, and have no strong <br /> feelings as to whether or not a monetary contribution needs to be <br /> made. <br /> I understand from my discussions with John Hughes, the Club has <br /> received contributions from UNC Hospitals ($8,000) ; the Town of <br /> Chapel Hill ($8,000) ; small private contributors ($3,500) ; and <br /> has several requests pending, including major utilities, other <br /> municipalities and some major industries. The immediate need has <br /> been met and they are still approximately eight thousand dollars <br /> ($8,000) short of the total project goal . <br /> _ s <br />
