On the recordJuly 22, 1997
Yes, the county has received roughly $150,000 from FEMA, but there is still about $178,000 outstanding. Most of the money paid to Rockingham County came only after a meeting this past March 3, which I hosted in my office with officials from FEMA and Rockingham County Commissioner Tom Battles. At that meeting, we were encouraged by FEMA that the outstanding balance would be settled within the next few months after some more flood mapping was conducted. With adequate time having passed and a new fiscal year on the way, it is only fair to Rockingham County and the State of New Hampshire that this issue be settled as budgets have to be structured. Mr. Bond. I would say that I do agree that FEMA should work very quickly on this.
