Erik,
I will not be able to attend the meeting re: OCPA. If allowed, can you please read my letter.

Council members,
As a 40-year resident and voter of Huntington Beach, I do not support OCPA. The fundamental concept makes zero sense: OCPA buys electricity from Edison and sells it to me, and through some function of magic beans, OCPA can run its beaurocracy and pay its $2 million fine yet sell it for less? I don't think so.

If allowed to proceed, I will opt out of OCPA at my carliest opportunity, and I will talk to everyone I know suggesting they also opt out
Thank you for listening,
Mike Costello

Subject: Special Meeting OCPA June 14th
Good Day,
I would like to request that the City of Huntington Beach remove themselves from the OCPA CCE process.

There is to many unknowns and seems that it keeps getting worse. From the very start this has not be transparent with the votes of Huntington Beach. Mr. Posey and Mr. Kalmick are named specifically. This is not good and many have speculated their involvement in this scam.

I hope the ce does the right thing this evening.

Thank you,
William Hennerty

Subiect: Comment on OCPA
Looks like OCPA is taking up a lot of our city council time and staff time. Maybe it's time to consider focusing in quality of life issues for the residents of our city, and not being involved in th lectricity wholesale/brokering business. If it's still possible to withdraw from the OCPA, that should b considered.

Thanks.

Subject: Huntington Beach Participation in the Orange County Power Authority (OCPA) Dear Huntington Beach City Council Members,
I do not support Huntington Beach being involved in the Orange County Power Authority and think that every effort should be made for the city to withdraw from this organization. The items on the City Council/Public Financing Authority meeting agenda tonight validate that this is organization is poorly managed and not a benefit to the citizens of Huntington Beach.

Thank you,

Subject: re Item 22-535 about Orange County Power Authority discussion planned for June 14, 2022 special meeting I have always been against the City of Huntington Beach being involved with the Orange County Power Authority (OCPA). The HB City Council should do everything possible to disengage from the OCPA agreements. Control of electric power should rest with the City. The negative financial impact of the OCPA agreement is substantial and it is time to walk/ run away - even if the City has to pay some penalties.

Cc: Joyce, Sean <[email protected]>; Gates, Michael <Michael. [email protected]> Subject: Items #1 and #2; Special City Council meeting of 6/14/2022 Council members:

As we all know, the Orange County Power Authority is under fire from the California Public Utilities Commission, the OCPA having received a 'citation' relating to a "Resource Adequacy proceeding," as a result of which the OCPA has been fined some $2 million.

On May 23rd, I filed a CPRA request with both the CEO, Brian Probolsky, and General Counsel, Ryan Baron, Esq., of OCPA to obtain a copy of the 'citation,' and am statutorily entitled to receive a response to my request within 10 days [Government Code § 6253(c)]; of course, I received no response.

On June 8th , I sent a follow-up reminder/request to the General Counsel for OCPA, Mr. Baron, and received the following 'auto-reply: "I am out of the office on parenthood leave until July 11. I will return your email [sic] at my soonest convenience. If you need immediate assistance, please contact my assistant, Monica Brozowski, at 925) 977-3306 or Monica. [email protected]." I immediately sent a follow-up email to Ms. Brozowski at the email address provided by Mr. Baron, and received the following message: "[email protected].' on 6/8/2022 9:19 PM Server error: 'Invalid recipient"
Both the name 'Monica Brozowski' and the phone number '925-977-3306' are associated with a house on Channing Way in Berkeley that contains 2 bedrooms and one bath in 965 square feet.

In the absence of the General Counsel, Mr. Baron, who is fulfiling the duties and obligations of that positon for OCPA?
Thank you.

Huntington Beach City Council,
I am absolutely opposed to HB proceeding to participate in OCPA. The OCPA management has demonstrated that they are both corrupt and completely incapable of managing their proposed ICPA.

It's not to late to save the citizens of Huntington Beach the humiliation of participating in this ill conceived and poorly run experiment

Subject: Our city of Huntington Beach attention council members June 14 22 Dear Mayor and City Council Members,
I have lived in Huntington Beach since 1973. The city decisions over the years have changed our beach city into a non beach high rise environment. Buildings with non beach ghetto colors and no character. Tragic loss of wet lands and city landmarks. Now you want to add more than 13,000 housing residences mandated by Sacramento. This past winter we had 4 blackouts in one day.

Southern Californias average rainfall is 12 inches with no infrastructure to capture run off.

We need to stop high density housing because our current electrical and water supply cannot support it.

Thank you, Dennis Pappas

Subject: Water and Electricity Special Council June 14 22 Dear Mayor and City Council Members,
I am a long time resident of Huntington Beach and would like to express to you my concern for our water and electrical availability in our city. I see that you recently approved a new development on Talbert and Newland. This project needs to be put on hold, and other brand new projects you have in the works need to be halted. We do not have enough electrical capacity nor water capacity to support these new developments. We need the water and electricity for our current residents.

Thank you
