Obie,
First, the Geothermal Funds CAN be expended in HPP. Look it up in the law.
Second, it is not about whether "he" (Fred) or any other Council member can "spend" those Funds somewhere -- they are NOT his (or any other Council member's) to spend. They belong to the community. Fred Blas and I (as candidates) promised members of the community and other Council members that we would change the disposition of those funds so that they were controlled by the community and could not be used for political patronage as Emily did and it seems Fred is doing -- Fred has not done what he promised.
