Township in Ohio snubs federal aid after snowstorm
CLEVELAND—The
federal government isn’t used to being snubbed when it offers to help local governments. When it offered Chardon Township in Ohio $10,000 in disaster aid for a snowstorm in March, the locals said no thanks. Township Trustee Chuck Strazinsky told The Plain Dealer for a story published Friday that it was a typical snowstorm unworthy of federal aid. He says the money should be reserved for true emergencies. Township Trustee Steve Borowski disagrees with the decision, saying help from the federal government shouldn’t be turned down. Last month the Federal Emergency Management Agency included Geauga among 17 Ohio counties eligible for disaster aid.
