The Commission of the M-S-R Energy Authority (M-S-R EA) met on July 19, 2017 at

the offices of Navigant Consulting, Inc. (NCI), 35 Iron Point Circle, Suite 225, Folsom,

CA, 95630. Present from Modesto Irrigation District (MID) were James McFall and

Martin Caballero; present from Santa Clara were Pat Kolstad and John Roukema; present

from Redding was Dan Beans. Also present were General Manager Martin Hopper,

Consultant Alan Hockenson, and General Counsel Steve Gross.

President McFall called the meeting to order at 1:48 P.M. A quorum was attained with

the voting representatives being Mr. McFall, Mr. Roukema, and Mr. Beans.

The Commission then considered approval of the Consent Calendar Items. It was moved

by Commissioner Roukema and seconded by Commissioner Beans to approve the

Consent Calendar consisting of Items 1, 2, and 3 as listed below. The motion carried

unanimously.

1. Minutes of July 19, 2017 – approved.

Mr. Hopper then addressed the Commission regarding the annual update to the M-S-R

EA Strategic Plan. The proposed update continues to reflect the status quo structure of

M-S-R EA operations and other than updated editing is substantially similar to last year’s

Strategic Plan. It was moved by Commissioner Beans and seconded by Commissioner

Roukema to adopt the proposed 2018 M-S-R EA Strategic Plan. The motion carried

unanimously.

DRAFT Minutes M-S-R Energy Authority Meeting of September 20, 2017 Page 2 of 2

The Commission then considered the September 2017 Outside Services Budget versus

Actual Report and Mid-Year Budget Review. Mr. Hopper reported that the majority of

the Authority’s service providers are expected to complete the year at or below their

authorized budgets. The Budget for General Counsel activities will be increased by

$2,000. However, as all other categories will come in under budget, a Budget increase is

not required to accommodate this line item increase. This adjustment will be made

administratively as per past practices. It was moved by Commissioner Roukema and

seconded by Commissioner Beans to note and file the September 2017 Outside Services

Budget versus Actual Report and Mid-Year Budget Review. The motion carried

unanimously.

The Chair then called for Member Reports and for Public Comment. Mr. Beans reported

that he has now been officially appointed as Redding’s Director of Electric Utility. There

being no further reports or comments, the Chair announced that the next regular meeting

of the Commission will be held on Wednesday, November 15, 2017 at 12:30 P.M., at

M-S-R Energy Authority Staff Report

Date: November 8, 2016 From: Martin R. Hopper, General Manager To: M-S-R EA Commission Subject: Approval of 2018 M-S-R Energy Authority Budget The proposed 2018 M-S-R Energy Authority Budget has been prepared in conformance with our Bond Indentures and the policies and priorities established in the 2018 M-S-R EA Strategic Plan adopted by this Commission on September 20, 2017. This budget reflects only the actual cash expenditures of the Agency and does not include expenditures or payments made directly by the Members for Natural Gas purchases nor includes counter-party payments and receipts made directly to the Trustee. The expected Member natural gas purchases have been provided in the Budget for information only. The total actual cash expenditures under the budget will be $0.14 million and are approximately $0.01 million higher than in the adopted 2017 M-S-R Energy Authority Budget. The proposed 2017 M-S-R Energy Authority Budget was reviewed by Member Staff in a workshop held November 2, 2017. I recommend the Commission adopt the proposed M-S-R Energy Authority 2018 Budget.

Staff Report Date: November 6, 2017 From: Martin R. Hopper, General Manager To: M-S-R EA Commission Subject: Annual Election of Officers Resolution 2013 – 01 Regarding The Election And Duties Of Officers specifies:

“An election of officers by the Commission shall be held on the date of the first regular or adjourned regular meeting in January of each calendar year. Each officer shall hold office at the pleasure of the Agency. All officers for the Agency, except the Treasurer, the Controller, the General Manager, and the General Counsel, shall be elected at the January meeting.”

Recent elected officers of the Agency have been: 2014 2015 2016 2017 President Greg Salyer –

Modesto Barry Tippin – Redding

John Roukema – Santa Clara

James McFall - Modesto

Vice President

Barry Tippin – Redding

John Roukema – Santa Clara

James McFall - Modesto

Barry Tippin – Redding (Vacant)

The appointed officers of the Agency are: Secretary: Steve Gross Reappointed by Commission January 30, 2013 Assistant Secretary: Martin Hopper Reappointed by Commission January 30, 2013 Treasurer: Scott van Vuren Appointed by Modesto as MID Treasurer Controller: Jill De Jong Appointed by Modesto as MID Controller

Subsequent to Mr. Tippin being named Redding City Manager, he stepped down as M-S-R EA Commissioner and as Vice President of the Authority on September 1, 2017. Since that time the office of Vice President has been vacant. At the March 20, 2013 meeting when Resolution 2013 – 01 was adopted, it was suggested that the Commission rotate the officers through the membership of the Commission on an ongoing basis. A rotation of the officers would suggest that Redding’s Commissioner become the President and Santa Clara’s Commissioner become the Vice President. I recommend the Commission that due to the officer vacancy the Commission conduct its annual election of officers for the offices of President and Vice President at this meeting and make the appointments effective immediately.
