1) President Amanda Schindhelm called the meeting to order.
2) Secretary’s Report – Meeting minutes from the August meeting were approved. Tony also noted that the letters
were sent to advertisers for the 2006-2007 year and suggested that next year letters be sent in the late spring.
3) Treasurer’s Report – In Marks absence, Mandy presented the report. Receipts since the last report included
payments for newsletter ads and the final SPAG funds for the Future Cities project. (We have received 7
checks for the newsletter ads to date.) Fiscally, there is minimal activity this time of year. Mark would like to
hold the budget discussion at the October meeting. Frank voiced a concern about the disparity in $8,000 in
inflows versus outflows.
4) Programs – Rizwan reported through Frank Kaul that we do need speakers for the December meeting and
forward meetings. He has ideas which he is pursuing.
5) Committees
General - John has received replies from all and has updated the org chart.
Professional Objectives - Randy Peterson wants more direction. His responsibilities appear to mirror those
of NSPE. Joe quoted the bylaws relative to the committee responsibilities and Tony will follow up with
Randy. Frank suggests that Randy keep us informed. Ray suggests that we ask National for information
and advice. Mandy suggests that we invite new P.E.’s to an ASCE meeting.
Younger Members – Carrie Nicholson (PB) will be taking over the newsletter. Tony suggests that we tie in
Young Members Committee (and SEI) with the ASCE regular meetings, perhaps by scheduling their events
at 4-6pm on the same day as the regular meeting.
SEI - SEI postponed the LRFD Training until Spring since SHA has one planned for the Fall.
Web Site - Jake needs help and is putting a group together to revamp the MD Section web site.
6) Annual Report – Needs to be prepared by November by the Secretary with input from the Treasurer. Tony will
give Kelly a copy from the prior year.
th
7) 100 Anniversary Committee Status – There has been no committee formed. John will meet with Matt Fenton
to discuss archived information. It was suggested that we promote or pursue the National Convention in
Maryland for 2014, if possible.
8) Eastern Shore Meeting - Dave Elberti will mobilize this effort in the next few weeks.
9) Student Chapters – The board would like to know when student chapter meetings are held.
10) Capstone Class - Dr. Vannoy would like 5 firms to host his students in October and November. It was agreed
that the Board firms would handle this. Kelly will coordinate with Dr. Vannoy. Tony will send Kelly information.
The October firms and contacts will be:
SHA – Russ Anderson
Wallace Montgomery – Tony Mawry
Parsons Brinckerhoff – Kelly Brennan
Whitney Bailey – Frank Kaul
JMT – Christine Cline
The November firms and contacts will be:
SHA – Russ Anderson
Wilbur Smith – John Malinowski
KCI – Chris Heyn
STV – Joel Oppenheimer
Gannett Fleming – Art Barrett
11) Excellence in Journalism Award – Mandy handed out the nominations ballots and requested that we promote.
12) Ray expressed his thanks for the opportunity to serve as Director. He discussed his past experience and his
role in new governance change. He suggested we use our Governors for assistance to the maximum extent
possible. Finally, he suggested that Board members fill out the survey for the ASCE PAC. Raza opposes the
PAC and expressed his feelings.
13) Chris Heyn needs the name of the new ESB contact in order to switch reservations. Joe suggested that Chris
contact national to set up a MD section email, i.e. MD_reservations@members.asce.org to eliminate the need
to continually change the reservation email. Chris also suggested that we eliminate Evite as a means to
reserve and the Board approved. Chris will contact Jake in order to update the website.
Respectfully submitted,
Kelly Brennan, PE
Secretary, Maryland Section ASCE
