Mcfarlane hands his crony $150k

This is definitely coming out of the general fund. It's a 'study' which means some guy working at CH2MHill  for probably 30k a year puts about 2 weeks worth of work into producing a nice paper using his computer to conduct most of the research. Funny how they always are able to come up with money for the stuff they want. Nice little piece of change for Mcfarlanes crony from the city club
