Dear City Council Members and City Staff, thank you for the due diligence and update regarding the Orange County Power Authority (OCPA). I urge you to continue to delay action on withdrawal until the costs arising from the resale of capacity, electricity, or any power load attributed to the City has been determined and the results of the State's audit of OCA is released. This release is scheduled for Feb 28 and should resolve any concerns regarding corruption at OCPA. If these concerns are adequately addressed, it does not appear that withdrawal from OCPA is fiscally responsible due to the withdrawal penalties and the cost savings that can be realized now that OCPA's base rate is less than SCE's.
I want to continue to emphasize that as a resident of Huntington Beach, I strongly support my freedom to have a choice regarding electricity providers. Please do not take away that choice from the majority of residents and businesses who have opted to stay with OCPA and realize the benefits that they have the potential to offer over Regards,
Lisa Swanson
