17 Mr. Brady said that at theraeetingof August.23, 1978, a Citizens Petition Coraraittee frora the rarea called West Overland sutaraitted a petition requesting a sanitary sewer project. He said he had prepared a report dated Septeraber 20 to Mr. Flick (copy in Secretary-Treasurer's File), which -set out these facts: Approximately 24,000 feet of 8 inch sewers and a lift station are required at a total estiraated cost of $600, The problera, of course, is funding. Although St. Louis County has raade a stateraent as to the possitale 50 percent participation in the Maryland Heights protalem, a nearby area, there has been no comraitraent for this one. Mr. Kaiser coraraented that a sutadistrict should tae formed for almost any type of financing, and the Chairman requested Mr. Brady keep the Board informed of progress. Mr. Kaiser said that many of the private sewer ccmpany's facilities in the new Districttaoundariesare nottaeingraaintainedproperly. The treatment plant serving the Village of Twin Oaks was tauilt with the owner's capital, not that of the users. The treatment facility is a -plant which has primary and secondary- processes.. There has been sorae little negotiation^ which is not. completed. Should this be successful, we. would advance raoney from the General Fund to be reimbursed frora future connection charges. n buying this plant, two or three others nearby could tae consolidated with it. He requested perraission to acquire the facilities serving the ViJlage of Twin Oaks. The Chairraan then called on Mr. Richard Hrach, who stated that he was araeraberof the Board of Trustees of the Village of Tvrin Oaks. The Village wholly supports Mr. Kaiser's statements and would like for the District to own, operate and maintain the treatment plant serving it. After a short discussion. Chairman Young said that he had appointed an Acquisitions Cammittee consisting of Messrs. Cento and Lee to review such proposed acquisitions. Motion made by Mr. Lee, seconded by Mr. Cento, that Mr. Kaiser be authorized to proceed with negotiations toward acquisition of the Twin Oaks system, and upon corapletion thereof, present such agreeraent to the Board for approval in the form of an ordinance. 17

18 Mr. Kaiser said the area served tay the -South County Sewer Corapany is near the confluence of-the -Mississippi and'meramec.rivers. t is a -part of the- Mississippi River Watershed and not -that of the - Meramec. -f the Dis-trict- shouldtauythe sewers, it w'ouldtauilda trunk sewer and put in both-a primary and--.sec onda,ry-treatment plant. We would take one-half the connection -charges until'-we 'received -$130,000.00, which would be our 10 percent of the cost. There is difficulty with sorae of the line -and-we -would -not want to-raake'-the acquisition if-the' pipe did" not sa-tisfy District standards. -,....,. ^.. Mr. Lietaraann coraraented that in the area along Telegraph Road to Christopher Drive to the river there are 3,500 hemes under construction, just finished or started. Mr. Kaiser said that he wished to carry on the negotiations toward acquisition of the sewer systera and would, of course, do so in conjunction with the Acquisitions Committee-. - 'Mr. Cento.said--ithat he understood that-mr. Kaiser will tae negotiating with the Fenton Sewer- Corapany. Since- one of the ovmers is a friend and business associate, he asked- if the Chairman would excuse him frora that-particular phase of-the negotiations..mr. Young.then asked-. Mr. Bischof if he would serve in Mr'. Cento's place on the Coraraittee for that particular protalera, and'mr. Bischof agreed. Motion raade by Mr.. Rodefeld, seconded by Mr. Lee, that the raeeting tae adjourned. Meeting adjourned, at 5:35 P- M. :' Secretary-Treasure 18
