That aint the point fam.....regardless if they spent it on rebuilding efforts or not. If you wreck your car and your insurance company gives you 6 grand cause you totaled the car, but instead of buying a new car you use it on some other stuff that mean you should pay it back?

It's principle man principle

Ethically, yes they should have to pay it back. Just like if I get grants from Financial Aid and go out and buy some rims for my car.

Alright, let's try to break it down again. You asked how do you repay a grant. Right? Obviously, if you were given the money and you should not havereceived it, then you'd have to repay it. That is called an error. If you were payed more than you were supposed to get, then, that is an error aswell.
One organization is saying "hey, we made an error and gave too much to some people, the contract they signed states they will pay it".Meanwhile, another organization is saying the complete opposite.

You have two opposing sides in the article.

Still, you asked why one would have to repay a grant and I thought my answer was quite clear.

Oh, and with regards to the witty statement at the end, apparently in this situation, comprehension is like free throws, and you're doing worse than Shaq.

Grant, loan, donations, etc.....

If you gave out too much and can prove it then you have a right to be paid back, its really not that hard to understand.

I'd just like to see the contract terms...

if there was a clause that people would have to repay any overpayment...then they should...if there isn't...then it's the company's fault formiscalculating their overpayment

You're talking about the initial debit cards they gave out to people, this is about people getting grants to rebuild there homes, different story. Thepeople you're speaking of probably weren't homeowners.

On another note, I'm sure there was no miscalculation, I believe these mistakes were just a further ploy to move the poor homeowners out, developersaren't gonna be happy till they can buy the rest of the city.
