Didn't Andy comment that NO ONE has actually made into the program but came close...why continue a failed program? Why would anyone get a discount? Why not all just pay the same rate? Why do they keep justifying picking winners and losers?

See on pg 196 on tonight's agenda for the 1.20.15 meeting, they are still moving forward w/their addiction to OPM (Other peoples money) and getting the Electric appraisal when another would be required at the time of an actual sale.

Sell the 8-9 MILLION DOLLAR general fund cash cow? NOT GONNA HAPPEN!
