Grand Forks Part II
-
Im not saying i know it all, But the Interstate is partially federally funded, however i believe each state is responsible for its upkeep and how its run, and in that case if Hoeven was on board with Walaker than they could tell FEMA otherwise. I also believe FEMA only coordinates with state and local governments, not take over for them.

You should neglect to comment on such basic things you have proven to have little knowledge ofI talked to a guy that knew a guy that was married to a girl that had a relative that knew a guy that worked for FEMA in '97 and he said thats what they were planning to do this time.

The decision to close in-bound traffic was not Mayor Walaker's decision or idea. It was the FEMA's idea on what Fargo should do the day before the crest. During the closed door discussions with our city officials they(the city) pretty much said no way. We have gone this far and we aren't stopping now. It was a miscommunication between the DOT and the Federal officials that closed it down so all traffic could head westbound.

It's my understanding that we aren't talking about Hoeven telling F.E.M.A. whats up; its Walaker I was wondering about.From what i read of that, Walaker did tell them, Because Governor Hoeven was on board with the fargo officials, which includes Walaker.

Where does it say in this article that Hoeven and the Mayor were thinking the same thing or were 'on board' with each other?
Seriously, I don't see it.
To me, it sounds as If F.E.M.A. and the Gov. met with City Officials (Walaker included) to consider a large scale evac, and the City Officials (not just Walaker) said "Naw, we're good."

Ok, I gotcha, i read it wrong, Sorry, either way it came to the conclusion so far, Fargo and Moorhead wasn't going to give it up.

seriously will, shut up already.
you know just as little as everyone else, and your head is getting alittle big for "what/who" you are.
god your like a broken record, everytime someone says something that YOU think there is a small chance you could make a zinger you go for it.
but you fail to see that you sound like a jackass doing it.
fuck it is getting old

Unless we get tons of rain, Im going to play off this 2nd crest as something we've seen many times.
