Mr. Ross reported that the Program Management Committee met on October 2, 2012 at 7:35 a.m. The meeting was attended by Trustees Ross and Berry.
The minutes of the September 4, 2012 meeting were approved.
The agenda items to be introduced tonight were presented and discussed, including a detailed discussion regarding the following items:
Item 54 – Construction Management Services – Lower & Middle RDP Tunnel –
This ordinance is a Watershed Consultant contract with Shannon & Wilson, Inc. The write-up for this ordinance describes the proposed activities for FY2013. Staff reported that the appropriation being requested is $1.35 million more than budgeted. The additional cost is due
to the acceleration in the construction start date for the Lemay Pump Station No. 1 Redundant
Force Main. This force main is approved as an unfunded contingency project for FY2013. This
project will be allowed to start 6 months early to better assure its timely completion as required by the Consent Decree. Staff also reported that the MWBE participation to date for this project is 38%, which exceeds the contract requirement of 30%.
Staff responded to Committee questions regarding this project. Staff reported that all work performed on this project will be cost plus with the staffing of the project approved by
MSD. The overhead rate charged for this work will be as reviewed and approved by MSD’s
audit staff.
Items 56 to 59 – General Services Agreement – Property Appraisal – Contract A through D – These ordinances will appropriate funds and allow staff to enter into contracts to
provide property appraisal services. Each of the four was selected separately with an overall
MWBE goal of 30%. The overall MWBE participation for these contracts is 31.25%.
Item 60 – Kingston I/I Reduction – This ordinance will appropriate funds for the design of this project under the Lemay Sanitary Sewer Improvements Watershed Consultant
contract. This is an unfunded contingency project to address Consent Decree requirements.
The MWBE participation for this project is 62%.
Staff then presented to the Committee information regarding the makeup and duties of the Engineering Department. Staff discussed the wide array of technical skills required
in the 13 different groups within the Department and presented the responsibilities and overall
production levels of each. Staff concluded by reporting that the number of contracted full-time
equivalent employees being utilized for design and construction management during the first three years of the Consent Decree Capital Program are equivalent to the number of MSD employees at the Market Street Headquarters.
Finally, staff reported to the Board on the information received from the
Fawnvalley project residents, including those who spoke at the last Board of Trustees meeting. Staff also reported on the research to date by staff on these issues. Staff is scheduled to meet with the Fawnvalley residents on Wednesday, October 10, 2012 at 6:00 p.m. to present how
MSD plans to proceed.
The meeting was adjourned at 9:05 a.m.

Mr. Theerman reported that on October 10th members of the MSD staff held a public meeting in Des Peres to provide information about the District’s Fawnvalley stormwater
project. This project is a $990,000 construction project to address creek erosion adopted by
the Board last June. After the project construction started this past August, a number of
concerns were raised by adjoining residents. The District stopped the project so as to hear and hopefully address concerns. Since work was suspended, MSD has heard public comment on four different occasions. At yesterday’s meeting, Brian Hoelscher provided the District’s
decision regarding continuing the project as well as provided information in response to the
concerns raised over the past six weeks.
Based upon the District’s findings regarding the various concerns raised, technical constraints, budgetary realities, and ultimately reaching the goal of solving the erosion issues in
Two Mile Creek, we will complete the construction project with some modifications.
All residents who have expressed interest in this project have received a letter regarding the District’s decision to move forward. This letter addresses all the concerns raised by residents and provides a description of the changes made to the project. It is unfortunate
that the District was not able to find a solution that makes everyone happy. I am confident that
we can build a project that will address the erosion issue, appropriately re-establish vegetation where it is disturbed, avoid moving erosion issues to other locations, address ponding water in
the 1990 block wall and work with the City of Des Peres on safety near the park. The District
intends to restart the project as early as next week and we believe that if we have normal fall
weather it can be completed to allow for final planting this spring. There will be a special Board meeting on Wednesday, October 24th at 8:00 a.m.
regarding the pricing of our 2004 Bond Refinancing.
This is Karl Tyminski’s last regular board meeting. Karl will be leaving us at the end of the month to enjoy a well-earned retirement. Tonight is Karl’s 369th board of trustees meeting. A solid year of reading board agendas aloud, it doesn’t get any better than that! I
want to publically thank Karl for all the help and guidance he has offered me since I took the
role of Executive Director nine years ago. He is a very knowledgeable professional, an
outstanding public servant and a great teammate. I have his cell number on speed dial and I intend to use it.

Mr. Tom Sullivan addressed the Board and reiterated his concern about how MSD
selects engineering consulting firms. He also noted that the District would be awarding contracts
to Burns & McDonnell, where Mr. Berry previously worked, and to AMEC, a London based firm.
He concluded by recommending the Board be more focused by solving public problems.
- - - -
Mr. Joseph Barnes, Senior Vice President from Blaylock Robert Van, LLC, a minority owned investment banking house addressed the Board and indicated that he previously
worked as a municipal bond specialist in St. Louis. His firm recently established an office in
Missouri and is excited about the possibility of working as an investment banker on the MSD
account. Mr. Tyminski indicated that this firm is not on the current agenda and would be
happy to support an amended ordinance to add this firm in the near future.
- - - -
Ms. Martha Lindsley addressed the Board and thanked the District for considering
Barclays as an underwriting firm. Barclays has over 20,000 employees where more than half of which are employed in the United States. Many are former Lehman Brother employees, from acquisition in 2008. Barclays has an office in Missouri, with 62 investment representatives, 160
employees in public finance, and many industry veterans dealing with municipal bonds for over
20 years. They have a $2.5 trillion balance sheet, which allows them to underwrite bonds in
excess of $4.9 billion for their clients. They look forward to working with the District.
