7. ACTION CALENDAR
7.1. Amendment No. 3 to MWH Americas Professional Services Agreement -
Construction Support Services for the Highland Booster Pump Station
Replacement
Mr. Conklin explained that staff had determined that additional
construction support services are needed from MWH for this project that
were not included in the original scope of work. MWH prepared a
proposal for these services which staff has reviewed and recommends for
approval. Director Collett reported that the Planning-Engineering-
Operations Committee had reviewed this matter and recommended
approval.
On a motion by Director Melton, seconded by Director Collett, the Board
voted 5-0 to approve Amendment No. 3 to the Professional Services
Agreement (PSA) with MWH Americas, in the amount of $219,791, for
additional construction support services for the Highland Booster Pump
Station Replacement and Expansion Project, Job No. 200814.
7.2. Board of Directors Compensation
Mr. Vecchiarelli explained that the Board could consider adjusting their
compensation rate for the upcoming year as permitted by the Water Code.
The compensation rate is currently set at $150 and could be increased up
to a maximum of $210 per meeting, since the law allows five percent
increase for each year since this last time the rate was adjusted. Each
Director then voiced their opinion against increasing the compensation
rate at this time. While voting to support no increase, Director Hawkins
pointed out that the Board may wish to consider a small increase in their
compensation sometime in the future, simply to reset the rate and thereby
limit the size of an allowable increase in the future (to reset the number of
years the five percent per year factor could be multiplied against).
On a motion by Director Hawkins, seconded by Director Collett, the Board
voted 5-0 to not adjust the Board of Directors compensation rate for the
upcoming year.

4. PUBLIC COMMENTS
None.
Mr. Vecchiarelli welcomed everyone in attendance. Each individual then provided a
brief introduction of themselves. Mr. Vecchiarelli explained that the purpose of the
meeting was to discuss the District's water rates and alternative rate structures.
5. DISCUSSION ITEMS
5.1. Financial Plan Study and Water Rate Alternatives
Mr. Gaur provided the Board with a PowerPoint presentation regarding
two financial plans, one which incorporated the OCWD annexation and
another that did not. This included a review of the District's pass through
1
costs and the affects of annexation on the cost of the District's overall
water supply. The Board and staff discussed the probability and timing of
the OCWD annexation. Mr. Gaur then reviewed two different fixed rate
options. The first was a uniform rate option where the rate would be the
same for all meter sizes. The second was based on the meter size, the
larger the size the higher the rate. This option could also be gradually
adjusted to AWWA capacity ratios over a period of five years.
Mr. Gaur then provided a second PowerPoint presentation regarding the
water rate alternatives including rate structures that promote water use
efficiency and enhance revenue stability. The discussion included an
overview of the challenges facing the District, water rate evolution and
options for conservation rate structures. The Board and staff discussed
the number of similar agencies who are currently using a budget based
rate structure as well as the goal of implementing such a structure.
Director Beverage commented that the last time the Board met to discuss
rate structures staff had been instructed to bring back a modified "postage
stamp" rate for consideration. Following additional discussion, Mr.
Vecchiarelli reported that the rate structure study included the preparation
of a flexible model that could show various rate structures side by side
including a flat rate, single or multiple tiered water rate and other
combinations, simply by varying the input for number of tiers, width of
tiers, etc. The model could also show the affects of migrating to a different
fixed rate structure based on meter size which could gradually adjust to
AWWA standards over 5 years. Another workshop to review these
various options and their affects on typical bills, seasonal water bills and
the average customer will be scheduled in May or June.
5.2. FY 2010/11 Budget
Mr. Vecchiarelli asked for feedback from the Board regarding their desire
to have staff prepare a 1 year or a 2 year budget. The Board and staff
then discussed the pros and cons of preparing each type of budget.
Director Hawkins suggested that staff prepare a 1 year budget along with
a 3-5 year financial plan. The Board agreed to this approach.
5.3. Future Agenda Items and Staff Tasks
President Beverage asked if any of the Board members planned to attend
the City of Yorba Linda Main Street Archway Celebration on February 22,
2011. Directors Melton and Kiley will attend.
6. ADJOURNMENT
6.1. The meeting was adjourned at 10:37 a.m. The next regular meeting of the

Subject: Recording Board of Directors Meeting Minutes
SUMMARY:
At the Citizens Advisory Committee meeting on January 24th, the Committee reviewed staff's
research regarding meeting times and methods of recording meeting minutes from other local
agencies. The Committee discussed the matter at length and recommends the Board of Directors
consider audio recording their regular meetings and using these recordings to produce summary
written minutes for approval as the permanent public record. The Committee suggested retention of
the audio recordings after the written minutes are approved, should be at the discretion of the
Board.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
That the Board of Directors consider the Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) recommendation to
audiotape, at a minimum, the YLWD Board of Directors Meetings; post these audiotapes for public
access and transparency; use the audiotapes to prepare written minutes, which should provide a
reasonable synopsis of the discussion and Board deliberation; and once reviewed and approved by
the Board, the written minutes will become the permanent public record. The CAC further
suggested the duration that the audiotapes are retained and made accessible to the public, should
be at the discretion of the YLWD Board.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
The Executive-Administrative-Organizational Committee recommends that, at a minimum, the
Board of Directors consider implementing the CAC's suggestion to audiotape the Board of Directors
meetings and to retain the audiotapes until a summary written record produced from these tapes is
approved by the Board, at which time the written record becomes the permanent public record.
DISCUSSION:
The matter of producing either audio or video recordings of the Board of Directors Regular Meetings
was brought up in a Citizens Advisory Committee Meeting in October 2010. The matter has been
discussed further at subsequent CAC Meetings and considered by the Executive-Adminstrative-
Organizational Committee at several of their meetings over the past few months.

EXEC-ADM IN-ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITTEE MEETING
February 15, 2011
A meeting of the Executive-Administrative-Organizational Committee was called to
order by Director Beverage at 4:30 p.m. The meeting was held at the District's
Administrative Office at 1717 E Miraloma Ave, Placentia CA 92870.

1. PUBLIC COMMENTS
None.
2. ACTION CALENDAR
2.1. Citizens Advisory Committee Recommendation for Board of Directors
Meeting Minutes
The Committee discussed the CAC recommendations and agreed that this
recommendation should be brought before the full Board of Directors for
consideration.
3. DISCUSSION ITEMS
3.1. Draft 2 Strategic Planning Document
The Committee reviewed the report in-depth and suggested changes for
the Draft 2 that would then be sent out to the executive staff, EPIC
Committee and full Board of Directors for further review. Comments from
the revised Draft 2 document will be incorporated and brought back to the
full Board of Directors on March 10, 2011. Ms. Botts left the meeting
following this discussion.
3.2. Elk Mountain Reservoir Practice Field Project
Mr. Vecchiarelli presented a comprehensive open community park option
with the Committee. Mr. Vecchiarelli noted that the City of Yorba Linda
had declined to incorporate this area into their current Parks and
Recreation Department plan at this time and therefore, the District would
be liable for maintenance on this property. The Committee confirmed the
desire to develop the closed, limited use practice field option, with
synthetic turf. Maintenance would be minimal on a synthetic turf area, as it
would have no playing field "lines" and only District-approved community
1
partners, would have a key to the field. Staff was instructed to bring back a
potential timeline of the project implementation to the next Committee
meeting. Mr. Micalizzi left the meeting following this discussion.
3.3. Organizational Chart
Mr. Vecchiarelli reported he was not prepared to discuss this item at this
meeting, but would be prepared for further discussion at the next
Committee meeting on March 2, 2011.
3.4. District Purchasing Policy
The Committee reviewed their discussion from the previous meeting and
confirmed their expectation to have the General Manager return with a
proposal for revised procedures for review at the next Committee meeting.
3.5. General Counsel's Monthly Summary Report
The Committee reviewed the report and questioned the usefulness of the
information presented. Mr. Vecchiarelli noted that this information must
have been asked for in prior years and could be removed from future
agendas if desired.
3.6. Water Conservation Ordinance
The Committee discussed this item and staff was instructed to bring back
an action item for consideration at the next meeting that would allow for
irrigation on Sundays, on an interim basis, perhaps through the end of the
fiscal year June 30, 2011. This action item could then be brought to the full
Board of Directors at their March 10, 2011 meeting.
3.7. Future Agenda Items and Staff Tasks (For consideration at the March 2,
2011 meeting.)
1. Board of Directors Travel Expense Reimbursement Policy

teachers are expected to attend the event, presented by the Orange
County Water District Groundwater Guardian Team, Orange
County Water District, Disneyland Resort, National Water Research
Institute, and Municipal Water District of Orange County.
It is more important than ever to teach our children that they can
be responsible by making "blue" and "green" choices to help protect
our precious water resources and environment. An investment made
in today's youth is an investment in our future.
