What has Fred Blas done ?

[Barbara]

The term "Mystery Councilman" intrigues me. I don't think Fred is a mystery at all. He just doesn't say much. He's not interested in listening to people. I think it bores him. And I don't think he's a clever thinker. He seems to me to be an Army COE guy. Unfortunately, the subdivisions in Puna WERE NOT planned by the Army, the were carved out for maximum profit by land speculators. I'm not saying bring in the Army COE to build roads through Puna, I'm saying voters in the 4th council district can do better. I appreciate his personal financial support for our PCMC. But his votes on the 2% Land Fund are a total betrayal of Puna voters. Fred showed up at an HPP membership meeting in Feb. promising street lights like the old time politicians do in the movies. He paid no attention to the meeting agenda, he was running his own agenda, and when he FINALLY LISTENED AND PAID ATTENTION he learned our By-laws don't permit them. Duh!!
This time around I'm not voting for Fred.
