Councilwoman asks about consolidation of power HUTTO - Concerns over cross-pollination and influence between the City Council and the Hutto Economic Development Corp. took center stage during a recent session at City Hall.

Four of the council's seven elected representatives also serve on the seven-member board of the EDC, leading to worries from some it gives too much power to one group whose votes frequently are aligned.

At the Nov. 5 council meeting, Councilwoman Corina Zepeda - who is not on the EDC - posed questions to her colleagues on the dais pertaining to the development corporation, an arm of city government.
