Good investigative reports aired on St. Louis TV stations

by Tripp Frohlichstein / Elliott Davis brought viewers an effective “You Paid For It” this past week as he produced a story (http://fox2now.com/2013/11/13/expensive-deal-costing-st-charles-county-taxpayers-millions/) on what appears to be an inconsistency in how St. Charles County does business. He pointed out that a recent $5 million plus project had only one bid submitted. Davis went after St. Charles County Executive Steve Ehlmann to ask him why they did not put the bid out again hoping for more bids to potentially lower the cost. Ehlmann responded that it fell within their expected cost range. Then it was clear that Davis did his homework.
