The inauguration of (lovernor

in more than one way. Besides be-
ing the last Kentucky inauguration

(‘ .\l, Newton calls it the
“best student government"
he has worked with.

Yet some students won-
der how he could say that
about this year‘s StlA.

"They have a reputation
for not doing anything." said
telecommunications junior
Evan 'l‘une

Despite that opinion.
S(}.\ President Jimmy (llcnn
thinks his first term has
been productive so far.

"I think we have had a
good semester. We have
made headway on all of the
issues on the platform." he
said.

Glenn and Vice-Presi-
dent Whitney Speakcr's plat
form included working for
better student seating at
men's basketball games. in
volving more students in the
TA. selection process. creat
ing a link to teacher evalua-
tion forms front the SUA

And (llenn said. though
the only endeayor fully coni-
pleted is the link to teacher

Suspect linked to
UK death arrested

ASSISTANT NEWS {DROP

 

Employees in the pur—
chasing department at UK
breathed a sigh of relief ear-
ly Monday morning when

Sandusky County deputy
sheriffs arrested Carlos
(,‘ortez.

(‘ortez was arrested on
charges of ii'ivolvement in
the murder of Lonnie Gross.
an employee in the purchasv
ing department at UK. Gross
worked as a mail courier for
the department for almost 30
years.

“I was very excited."
said Mary Duncan. an ad
ministrative assistant in the
purchasing department.
“Even though it had been for
the two-year period of time. l
was glad to see justice
served."

Duncan said she worked
with Gross for many years.
“He was very well-liked.
very outgoing. very caring
and for something tragic like
this to happen it was a great
loss." she said.

(‘iross' body was found
by a neighbor in January
1998 at his home on Todds
Road. He was beaten with
various pointed objects. said
l)et. Paul Williams of Lex-
ington Police. Williams also
said (‘yross‘ house had been
ransacked.

Police in Lexington had
been looking for (‘ortez
since shortly after Gross'
death. Williams said they re-
ceived the tip on (‘ortez from
Theresa Ann I-‘ee. (‘ortez's
girlfriend at the time.

Fee was arrested and
charged in March 1998 for
her involvement in the
crime. said Williams. Fee re-
vealed information on
Cortez and one other suspect
in her confession. Ildefonso
Vargas Deleon.

“She revealed informa-
tion which led us to two oth
er subjects and we have been
actively looking for both
since then." Williams said.

Williams said the Lex~
ington police had contacted
”America's Most Wanted" in
their search for the suspects.

Williams said they hope
to find Deleon with assis
tance from the FBI. The FBI
and “America‘s Most Want-
ed" turned out to be unnec-
essary for the apprehension
of Cortex.

The police department
received information that
(‘ortez was living in San-
dusky. ()hio. Williams said.

“We forwarded this in-
formation to the Sandusky
County Sheriff‘s Office in co-
operation with the Fosteria
Police Department and they
got him." Williams said.

l)et. Lee Swartz of the
Sandusky (‘ounty Sheriff‘s
Office said they apprehend-
ed (‘ortez in (:ibsonburg.
Ohio. at Reino‘s laundry.
where he was Working.

Swartz said Cortez had
worked at Reino's laundry
for about a month under the
alias of Jose Cruz with a tie»
titious social security num-
ber. Cortez was charged
with murder and robbery
and will face extradition in
Kentucky.

LEXING'I‘ON. Ky. 'l‘he
LexingtonFayette (‘ounty l'r
ban (‘ounty (‘ouncil has tenta-
tively approved a schedule for
storing tnore water in the Keir
lucky River.

The council also agreed to
check on the schedule in six
months. after the Kentucky Riv
er Authority has asked the (ten
eral Assembly for iuoney (or
permission to raise money) to
begin raising the heights of a
series ofold datns on the river.

If not enough progress has
been made. Lexington will look
at other options. including get
ting water from neighboring
towns or through a pipeline
from Louisville.

“Better late than never. We
should have done this It) years
ago.” council member Richard
Moloney said before the vote
Monday night.

“Nothing is perfect. but it‘s
certainly a step in the right di~
rection." Vice Mayor Isabel
Yates said.

A debate has raged for

years abotit whether the river
cotild meet the city's needs It] a
record drought. Lexington gets
almost all of its water from the
Kentucky.

Kentttcky~.\m«-rtcan Water
t‘o.. a private company that
supplies Lexington and sur
rounding areas. waged a public
relations campaign to support
its plan to augment that supply
with treated (lhio Rner water
from Louisville.

Supporters of the l'l\t‘l' so
lution said a better plan was to
capture tnore water in the Ken
tucky during high flows and to
increase KentuckyAmei ican‘s
capacity to treat that water.

l‘nder a third alternatne
that recently emerged. munici
pal water suppliers in towns
around Lexington wottld in
crease their treatment capacity
and share water with Lexiug
ton. The council said it wants
more details of that sketchy
proposal.

"We pretty much got what
we wanted attd what the com
munttv needed." said (‘het'm
'l‘alwalker. a leader of .\'ei:‘h
bot‘s (lpposing l’ll‘r' line l’.\tt'a\

agance.

Ketitut'lv'y‘-.-\itiet‘ic.'in had
pledged to support whatever
the council agreed on. Keir
tuckyAmerican President Roy
Mundy said Monday night that
the company will contact legis
lators to tell tlieiti it wants the
river solution.

The vote to tentatively ap
prove a resolution that laid out
the river solution was unani
mous. But there was a or. split
on council tnentber David
Stevens successful ttiotioii to
cheek (ill pt‘ogt‘es‘s in six
months instead of in Boon.

“If the Kentucky River Au
thority bombs out. we tnay not
make this schetne we‘ve laid
out." Stevens said,

Before the vote. the council
received two preliminary re

ports dealing with the cost of

getting itiore water.

The first said just bringing
datn .\'o. 10 up to current stan
dards could cost tnuch more
than expected, The second said
treating more Kentucky River
water shouldn't cost as ttutch as
Kentucky American said it
would.

Greater Louisville plan
aims at less air pollution

ASSOCIAIED mss years. Brewer said. “We've been working on
modeling exercises with Indiana and .letTerson
(‘ounty since the early Tins.” she said.

Without the local plan. the EPA would have
reclassilied tnetropolitatt Louisville as a serious
nonattainment area. That would mean tighter re-
strictions on motor-vehicle emissions checks and
limits on new industrial development to reduce
nitrogen oxide production.

NEW ALBANY. lnd. A plan for meeting
federal air-pollution standards for ground level
ozone in greater Louisville is now in the hands of
the US. Environmental Protection Agency.

The plan. jointly developed by government
agencies in Indiana and Kentucky. has been sub-
mitted to the states' EPA regional offices for ap» .. _ . . y . ‘

Quality. said on Monday she-did not know how can afiect the health of children. the elderly and

 

 

long the, process would take.

The EPA earlier classified the region as a
moderate non-attainment area for the pollutant.
meaning samples taken during air testing failed
to meet the standards ofthe 1990 (‘lean Air Act.

The affected region includes (‘lark and Floyd

counties in Indiana and .lelTerson and parts of

Bullitt and ()ldham counties in Kentucky. The
plan was developed by the Division of Air Quali-
ty. the Indiana Department of Environmental
Management and the .lefTerson (‘ounty Air l’ollur
tion (‘ontrol District in Louisville.

The plan has been under development for

people with heart and lung ailments,

“We feel this plan will make great progress
toward improving air quality and public health
ill the Louisville area." said Lori F. Kaplan.

(‘omponents of the plan include periodic
analyses of air-quality modeling and emissions
trends and a summary of current and projected
emissionscontrol measures,

Rebecca Stutsman. a spokeswoman for the
Jefferson (‘ounty agency. said the plan would
also require additional nitrogen oxide emission
control measures at large electric utilities.
