Lamontagne/Darrell Petterson. TOWNS/CITY: Bienfait – No appointment to date; Estevan – Dennis Moore; Kennedy – Linc Brickley; Kipling – Kevin Kish; Stoughton – Pat Shiels; Wawota – Dan Nicurity.

Letter to CNR: A letter was forwarded to Linda Vergata, Public Works Officer, Design & Construction, CNR Winnipeg office, to which

she replied. Kevin Kish spoke to her regarding the SETPC concerns and he felt she was receptive to those concerns, including the timely coordination of work at crossings with MHI. The following crossings were of concern: Peebles, Fairlight #48 Terminal, Carlyle #13, Ryerson #8, Bienfait East #39. Kevin Kish will continue to follow up. (It was noted that the CNR jurisdiction is 18 inches from the railroad tie.) Letter to Westmoreland: A letter was sent to Westmoreland regarding the condition of #47 south of Estevan. No response to date.

Owen Genert Retirement from MHI: An invitation to the retirement gathering which will be held May 30, 2018, at the Bear Claw

Casino, was received. Dennis Moore and Judy Riddell plan to attend. A $50 contribution to his retirement gift was agreed upon. ROAD UPDATES/CONCERNS: (Note: Owen Genert, MHI was not in attendance to report.)

Kevin Kish noted the Peebles crossing is still a concern.

Paving contract for Hwy 13 and 8 through and south of Redvers has been awarded to Langenburg. The plan is to ‘grade and pave’ – remix with AC on top.

Dennis Hull reported on the MHI and RM of Reciprocity partnership to upgrade #318 and #361noting that an engineering firm to plan and design the construction has been hired. When MHI has approval the plan and design, tenders will be accepted. It is expected construction should commence in July 2018.

Dennis Hull commented that #361 west of Alida is in poor condition. The RM of Reciprocity plan to meet with RM Moose Creek to talk about paving #361 in order to preserve it has been postponed to September.

Del Block reported that the directional arrows on the lane for eastbound traffic at the intersection of the Bypass and Hwy 39 on the east side of Estevan have been repainted correctly.

Dennis Moore & Del Block noted that #47 south of Estevan is in extremely poor condition. This highway services campgrounds, a regional park, golf course, lakeside properties, the rural area, and is a direct route from Estevan to the US border. Safety is a concern.

Estevan Truck bypass – Del Block reported solar flashing lights are not working.

Estevan #18 to #9 Alameda needs attention – truck ruts showing up badly.

Dennis Hull again noted that #9 should be a priority – it needs attention and should be considered southeast Saskatchewan’s north-south super highway as it is the major tourism and trade corridor from the US.

SETPC 2 May 22, 2018

Chairman ______________________ Secretary ____________________ Date __________

Moosomin Bypass -- Gary Sweeting reported that there is a need for continued discussion regarding the proposed bypass for Moosomin. Main Street (#8) is deteriorating and will need to be rebuilt if it continues to be a through route for all traffic. Kevin Kish & Gary Sweeting agreed to contact Moosomin to see where they are in their planning for a bypass, and possibly ask the Mayor (Larry Tomlinson) to attend a meeting to report on progress.

Kevin Kish reported there is vertical crack sealing underway on #48 Kennedy to Kipling.

Gary Sweeting noted some patching and shoulder repair work underway on #48 from the MB border to 1-1/2 miles west.

Del Block reported that the RM of Estevan was very satisfied with the work completed by Federal Joint Sealing Co. Of Canada Ltd., a company based out of Calgary and in business for 55 years. This company does hot or cold joint sealing,

diamond sawing joints in concrete, cleaning – cutting and grooving joints, asphalt crack sealing. They can be reached at [email protected] or (403) 277-7686. The RM of Estevan was impressed with the excellent work and the very reasonable cost.

OIL INDUSTRY FOCUS MAY 2018 Economic Development Report – Elroy Trithardt

Oil Tops $70 per Barrel

West Texas Intermediate oil topped $70 per barrel – the highest in four years. Although US production is up, Venezuela’s production is down, and Iran’s exports may be curtailed by US sanctions. Also, OPEC’s voluntary cuts have erased any global surpluses for now. However, the Petroleum Services Association of Canada is lowering the forecast for Western Canadian drilling for 2018 from 7,900 wells to 7,400. This is still higher than the 7,094 wells drilled in 2017. West Texas prices are higher but Western Canadian prices are lagging because of insufficient pipeline and rail capacity. Even if Canadian production does not expand, the increased price will raise tax revenue and inflation, probably leading to interest rate hikes. The Bank of Canada estimates second quarter GDP growth of two percent – in part the result of a three percent growth in oil sand production. There is some scheduled maintenance expected in the oil sands and this may temporarily free up some pipeline capacity. In Saskatchewan, where the focus is currently more on oil than gas, it is expected that drilling will actually increase by 300 wells in 2018. LOCAL PRODUCTION ISSUES According to the Estevan Mercury, the week that oil prices hit $70 per barrel, the Estevan AECOM shop closed. In 2011 Carson Energy sold its assets to Flint Energy. Later Flint sold to URS which was subsequently purchased by Los Angeles based AECOM in 2014. At the time, there were 13 Saskatchewan locations and 1,300 employees. They provided midstream pipeline and facilities construction and services, site preparation, trucking and some drilling. With the decline in the oil industry, AECOM began reducing services including closing the Lampman site which was the local headquarters. Recently, Canadian Plains Energy, ironically made up largely by former Carson employees, has literally filled some of the vacated spaces.

Estevan City Council,

For the past 10 years, the St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation has been an important group to our community to grow the facilities, equipment, and recruitment processes at the St. Joseph’s Hospital. We are very proud of the incredibly hard work that has been it in, and of the community support we have shown for our hospital. Currently, St. Joseph’s Hospital is one of the only remote hospitals with an onsite Heliport and has one of only 12 CT Scanners in the province.

In to 2018, one of our next big challenge is to continue working to improve our Doctor shortage, and work towards a long-term sustainable plan that will allow us to offer residency programs here and keep local doctors in our community. As you are all aware, the Doctor shortage in Estevan is a highly noted one by community members, and many citizens are hoping to see things turn around for the better quickly.

As always, at the Foundation we are constantly looking for new ways to both increase our funding and decrease our operating costs to allow us to allocate more funding towards our true cause. Being that St. Joseph’s Hospital is located within the City of Estevan, any financial assistance or otherwise that the City can give would be greatly appreciated.

It is important to note that I, Travis Frank, am fully aware that my role on both Estevan City Council, and as the Executive Director of the St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation am in a clear conflict of interest. Please note that in writing this proposal, I have worked to seek opportunities that solely benefit the St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation and will allow the City of Estevan to take this information and use it in any way they see fit. In creating this document, I have not contacted any city representative for advice, and I intend to remove myself from any discussion that is to come going forward.

Travis Frank Executive Director St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation 306.637.2474 www.sjhf.org

BOX 5000-203, 1176 NICHOLSON ROAD, ESTEVAN SK S4A 2V6 (306).637.2474 [email protected]

RE: RFQ for Collection and Hauling of Residential Waste & Recycling ITEM OR INQUIRY

Request for Quotes (RFQ) in regard to residential waste hauling and recycling were put on Sasktenders two weeks ago. Our current contract with Green For Life (GFL) expires as of June 30th, 2018.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION

The RFQ requirements were put in place to ensure that current service levels were met moving forward. The criteria in which the Quotes were assessed is as follows:

• Conformance in meeting the primary objectives of the RFQ: 15% The City of Estevan reserves the right to consider variations from the requirements with due regard to their importance. Incomplete requirements may risk obtaining a lower score.

• Proposed service levels: 25% Customer service to the City of Estevan is of primary importance. Please provide as many details as possible in regards to both regular service levels as well as value added service such as central coordination for addressing customer complaints and dealing with day to day problems that may arise.

• Past performance, references and vendor reliability: 10% Bidder is required to provide a minimum of three (3) Municipal references where they have provided similar services.

• Total bid price to meet requirements: 40% Provide full details of pricing and pricing structure.

• Implementation and termination plan: 10% Provide details for implementation, transition and termination of proposed plan.

2

Three RFQs were received,

- Green For Life (GFL) - Goliath Disposal - Emterra Group

Based on the initial financial review it was determined that the submission by Emterra Group was significantly higher than the other bids and would be outside the scope of the approved budget amount, so only GFL and Goliath were considered.

The RFQ document had detailed requirements in regards to objectives, service levels, and implementation and termination plans. Both companies submitted an RFQ meeting all those items.

Reference checks were completed for both companies and both were extremely positive indicated that both companies go above and beyond to ensure consistent and quality service to their customers

The pricing was the final criteria element and included multiple locations, the curbside collection of waste and recycling was the largest portion to be quoted. The Goliath Disposal curbside portion of the quote was 33% higher than GFLs. Additional service fees relating to the recycling depot, oil disposal, and specific yard size bins were comparable, with Goliath providing some of these services at a cost lower than GFL. Taking into consideration the different price factors, along with the other criteria the points awarded are as follows:

- Green For Life – 100 - Goliath disposal - 94

RECOMMENDATION

Based on the RFQs received it is my recommendation that we award a new three (3) year contract to GFL with an option for an additional two (2) year extension.

RE: Procurement of City of Estevan / Estevan Fire Rescue Owned Assets from the Souris Valley Museum BACKGROUND:

The City of Estevan had passed at a council meeting several years ago, a motion to loan and allow the use of the 1928 American LeFrance fire truck for a display piece at the Souris Valley Museum while still retaining ownership over this asset.

DISCUSSION:

Estevan Fire Rescue Services would like to re-secure the 1928 American LeFrance fire truck and any other fire department related city owned assets for a static display in the front end of the new fire station.

This will be showcased with other antiquities in the front display area and allow for self-guided tours of the public to celebrate the rich 111 year history of Estevan Fire Rescue Services protecting the citizens of Estevan and surrounding areas.

This will also allow Estevan Fire Rescue Services to reach out to the retired members to see if they would be so inclined to act as guides for the public tours on certain pre-designed days of the months and rekindling old relationships with them to ensure the history of the Fire Service in Estevan is not lost and forgotten.

Some of these retired members, along with current members, have also expressed an interest in helping Estevan Fire Rescue Services in maintaining the mechanical aspect of this treasure in hopes of restoring it to state that would be mechanically sound so that we would be able to use it in parades as well. At this current time this is not being done and is falling into a state of disrepair in the museum setting.

We feel it is an important part of our great city and should be cherished and shared with the public for generations to come.

CONCLUSION:

With councils blessing, EFR along with council liaison, Councillor Yanish, would like to continue to re-secure this much valued asset and display this beautiful piece of our history and celebrate all of the properties and lives it has saved over the years it was in service for our City and Department.

It is time to bring this treasure home where it belongs.
