State ‘tools’ help county reduce taxes Median-priced home projected to have $11 drop in county portion of property taxes in 2014 by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Dakota County’s share of property taxes on the median-priced home of $192,400 (assuming a 2.3 percent increase in value) will drop by $11 in 2014 when compared to 2013’s amount of $567. That decrease is due, in large part, to the county’s projected 0.5 percent decrease in the 2014 levy amount ($128.5 million), which was hailed by Minnesota Revenue Commissioner Myron Frans at a press conference Monday in Hastings. Frans and Dakota County commissioners said sales tax exemptions and an increase in state aid to cities and counties contributed to the county’s ability to hold the line on taxes. The county received $3.7 million more in County Government Aid in 2014, a 30 percent increase to $16.4 million. The sales tax exemption is expected to save the county $841,000. Frans presented County Board Chairwoman Kathleen Gaylord with a hammer – a symbol that the state gave local governments the tools to reduce taxes. State and local property taxes have risen 86 percent since 2002, according to Frans. “Property taxes are regressive, disproportionately affecting middle-class Minnesotans, and are levied without taking into account a taxpayer’s income or ability to pay the tax,� Frans said in a statement. “State and local leaders are working together to stop this decade-long trend.� Dakota County was among seven of Minnesota’s 87 counties to reduce levy amounts for 2014.

Book reveals Rosemount’s hidden history Longtime resident assembles account detailing town’s rich past by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Walk around Rosemount and its rich history is difficult to ascertain. Many of the buildings from around the turn of the century are long since gone so it’s no wonder the residents of the growing 21,000plus city don’t think about it much. Rosemount Area Historical Society member Maureen Geraghty Bouchard laughs when people say there’s no history in Rosemount.

“Read the book,� said Bouchard, a Dakota County Historical Society employee and longtime community volunteer who now carries the title of author after this summer’s publication of “Rosemount: From the River to Space.� The second printing of the 334-page volume is due out Friday, and people will find Bouchard on Saturday at the Rosemount United Methodist Church during the 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Holiday Bazaar. The book has already sold about 150 copies and

another 150 are on the way. Bouchard said it’s the book’s 1,100 pictures that have people praising it ‌ and buying it. “I want people to have the history,â€? she said. “I do love Rosemount and always have.

Meth still a problem in Dakota County

SPORTS

Prosecutions up in recent years by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Attacking the methamphetamine trade is like a much more dangerous version of the “whack a mole� carnival game. No matter how hard law enforcement hits the problem, it keeps popping up. Instead of homemade meth, which was the problem’s origin in past years, a more potent form of the drug is coming from Mexico. The most common drug prosecution in Dakota County is methamphetamine related. In 2012, there were 172 individuals charged with meth-related crimes, up from 156 in 2011. According to Dakota County Drug Task Force Cmdr. Dan Bianconi, the trend in 2013 has continued upward. It’s still far lower than it was in the early 2000s. In 2006 the Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act was enacted, requiring medicine with pseudoephedrine and ephedrine be put behind the counter at drug stores, and domestic meth production has decreased

With a number of domestic violence-related deaths across Minnesota, people are left to wonder how it is possible relationships can become so violent and fatal. Because each case is different, the root of domestic violence remains unclear, and contributing factors include media messages and mental illness. A majority of the batterers have witnessed domestic violence before,

Nearly 40 people across the state have died due to domestic violence this year, more than double the number of similar incidents reported last year. This series will focus on levels of domestic violence, its psychological aspects and what can be done to help those abused behind closed doors. Next week the series will look at how to get help. said Aaron Milgrom, the director of therapy at the Domestic Abuse Project. According to Tubman Family Crisis and

Support Services, family violence happens in one in three families in the United States.

Since 2003, the number of domestic violence-related homicides have ranged from 18 to 41, and there is no way to predict what the numbers will be, said Safia Lovett, criminal justice program manager at Minnesota Coalition for Battered Women. There is no apparent age range or racial group that is affected more than another. Because of the variety and incon-

sistency, Lovett said it is difficult to detect trends or predict where domestic violence will be in the future. “The only thing we can say for certain is that (at least) 60,000 women in Minnesota access services through domestic violence service programs, and statistically we know that only one in five report their violence and one in three are actually experiencing violence,� Lovett said.

Ex-Eastview athlete charged in homicide Religion Police report: Mistaken identity leads to shooting by Farmington man, former Eastview student by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Former star athlete at Eastview High School Dijon Cordell Sanders, 22, who lives in Farmington, was charged with two counts of second-degree murder in Minneapolis last week in connection with the deaths of two men in South Minneapolis last summer. Sanders was a senior at Eastview High School in 2009 when he was an allstate offensive lineman. He signed a letter of intent to play football for North Dakota State. He also had 58 career wins for the Eastview wrestling team.

De’Von L. Burt, 18, and Keondray Q. Wilson, 20, were shot and killed while sitting in a car in the alley between 18th Avenue South and Cedar Avenue South in Minneapolis on Aug. 25. According to the police report, witnesses heard gunshots and saw two men running through the alley of the 2600 block of 18th Avenue South at 8:30 p.m. Aug. 25. One of the male descriptions matched that of Sanders. Sanders was also charged with two counts of attempted second-degree murder as two women in the car were hit by bullets. They were treated at a lo-

cal hospital and survived while the two men were pronounced dead at the scene. The surviving passengers said the four of them had gone shopping and ate dinner in Uptown and had pulled into the alley when the two men approached the car and fired 33 shots — 14 from a .40 caliber firearm and 19 from a 9 mm firearm. They later identified Sanders in photographs, according to the report. Another witness brought officers photographs of individuals they believed to be involved. The witness learned that Sanders went to that block with the intent

to shoot another individual, who had previously been shot at. A casing from that scene matched the 9 mm casing recovered from the alley scene. The other individual is still at large. Sanders is scheduled to appear in court Dec. 2. He is being held on $5 million bail. The maximum penalty for the charges is 120 years. Sanders, then an Apple Valley resident, was convicted of disorderly conduct in 2009 and felony robbery in 2010.

Latest Lebanon Hills plan gets mixed reviews by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

After facing staunch opposition, Dakota County’s latest draft of its master plan for Lebanon Hills Regional Park received mixed reviews last week. The proposed plan, which was presented to the County Board on Nov. 12, includes 24.5 miles of unpaved trails, a new paved 6.5-mile connector trail that runs east and west and a 2-mile paved loop around Holland and McDonough lakes. The plan would keep all existing unpaved trails in Lebanon Hills the same, and would add six miles of unpaved trails. In total, the park would have 46 miles of unpaved trails. The plan envisions the paved trails would provide four-season recreation for bicyclists, walkers and skaters.

In the latest draft, officials are considering closing the western loop around Holland and McDonough lakes in the winter to allow crosscountry skiers to cross the trail. The latest draft also calls for a rocky beach to allow visitors to walk along the shore of Holland Lake as well as rustic cabins in camping areas. These improvements are estimated to cost $1.5 million per year over a 20-year period. Residents and advocates filled the board meeting room in West St. Paul to voice their concerns. Though there continues to be staunch opposition, a handful of people spoke in favor of the plan. Margo Imdieke-Cross of the Minnesota State Council on Disabilities

said she believes the new paved trails would allow better access for people with disabilities. “This plan allows people with disabilities to access the park in a meaningful way,� said Imdieke-Cross, who uses a wheelchair. Eagan resident Jeff Sparks noted that improving access with paved trails is also important for the metro’s aging population. “I can’t walk on unpaved paths anymore,� the 67-year-old said. “There’s going to be more like me in the future.� Several residents contend that people with disabilities can access the park without paved trails. “I believe in access, but I don’t believe asphalt trails through the heart of the park would achieve this,� said Laura

Hedland, former chair of the 2001 Lebanon Hills Master Plan. Some residents suggested the county look into natural materials such as wood chips or environmentally sustainable materials for a paved trail. Dakota County Parks Director Steve Sullivan said the county found available resources were either ineffective or too expensive. Hedland and other members of Wilderness in the City, a group of more than 100 opponents, accused the county of ignoring the 2001 Master Plan. Sullivan said he believes the latest master plan is similar to the 2001 version and strikes a balance between recreation and preservation. He also noted that 67 percent of the park property was farmed for 120 years, and that the con-

nector trail would follow these previously farmed areas to avoid disrupting environmentally sensitive portions of the park. Since 2001, the county has invested $5.2 million to preserve park natural resources and $3.7 million on developing recreational areas, Sullivan said Opponents also claim the paved trail will harm the environment and the aesthetics of the park. Noting that Lebanon Hills was recently named the best place to hike in the Twin Cities by Runners Magazine, Eagan resident Pat Cumming contended that a paved trail would hurt the park’s popularity. Several residents said they worry about buckthorn in the parks and accuse the county of not doing enough to eradicate the invasive plant. Others expressed con-

cerns about bikes on the trail becoming a hazard for walkers. While most opponents demanded the board drop the latest master plan proposal all together, one resident urged the board to find a compromise. A 1,842-acre park in Eagan and Apple Valley, Lebanon Hills is four times the size of the average park in the metro. The park currently has a campground, a beach and 19 miles of unpaved trails that are used by bicyclists, horseback riders and walkers. Less than a mile of paved walkways are near the visitor center. Lebanon Hills has had an influx of visitors which has increased to 544,000 in 2012. Jessica Harper is at jessica. harper@ecm-inc.com or facebook.com/sunthisweek.

Planned Adult Basic Education facility meets resistance by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

District 196 plans to build a new Early Learning and Adult Basic Education facility in Apple Valley has met resistance from residents. Plans call for a 54,076 square-foot, two-story building at 14445 Diamond Path near 144th Street that would house early childhood and adult education programs About 24 residents who live near the proposed site attended the Nov. 12 School Board meeting. Of those in attendance, a few expressed concerns about traffic and accused the district of leaving them in the

dark. “We thought you were just looking at the lot to see if it were feasible to use,� Apple Valley resident Steve Budnick said. “Now you’re digging. ... We’ve been blindsided.� Budnick said he is concerned 144th Street won’t be able to handle additional traffic that may be come with the project. Noting that the district began discussing the project in 2012, Board Member Rob Duchscher disagreed with residents’ contention that the district hasn’t been transparent. “We’ve done everything by the book and will try to help you feel easier about this project,� he said.

Each stage of the project was discussed at public meetings March 11 and 21, Sept. 4 and 23 and Oct. 30. A neighborhood meeting was held Aug. 22 at Dakota Ridge School, and notices were sent to immediate neighbors. One resident suggested creating an access to the new building from Diamond Path instead of 144th Street. Duchscher noted that Dakota County recently completed a traffic study of the area and assured residents the district will follow its recommendations. Other residents expressed concerns about property values and screening, while one woman insisted the dis-

trict study whether crime would increase due to evening classes for the Adult Basic Education program. The district’s early childhood and adult learning programs are currently housed in two separate leased buildings on County Road 42 in Apple Valley and Rahn Road in Eagan. In preparation for their lease to expire in August 2014, district officials looked in late 2012 at the feasi-

bility of moving the programs to a new building. Officials say the new center will better accommodate those programs and save money in the long term. Early design concepts, which were presented to the School Board on Tuesday, feature a brick exterior with metal panels and large windows to create interest. The design takes advantage of natural light and creates spaces for

both small children and adults. The architectural designs were $370,000 under budget. The project is estimated to cost $13.5 million. Officials plan to accept construction bids in early January. Jessica Harper is at jess i c a . h a r p e r @ e c m - i n c. com or facebook.com/ sunthisweek.

November 21, 2013 DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Opinion Education funding must be adequate, fair, accountable Financing the education of Minnesota’s kindergarten through grade 12 students takes nearly half of the state’s annual budget and by constitutional provision the funds must support a “uniform system” of public schools so that each student receives an “adequate” education. We believe more needs to be done to both insure that funding is adequate to accomplish our educational goals and that variances in funding address more uniform opportunities across districts and not advantages to some and not others. State and local school officials must also demonstrate accountability that programs are working to levels that show student success. The Minnesota Legislature has guaranteed each child basic aid of $5,302 this year and $5,806 in the following year, which includes a different per pupil weighting for next year. The actual per pupil percentage increase for both years is 1.5 percent. Not every child, however, is backed by an equal amount of money, in part because voters in some districts passed property tax levy referendums and some did not. The amount of this additional property tax levy per pupil varies district to district. We think too much of a Minnesota child’s education depends on local politics (sometimes national politics); local property tax wealth; local household income and ability to pay. We recommend

ECM Editorial reliance and access to these local voterapproved tax levies be reduced. Some districts also receive additional funds based on a high percentage of students from poverty and/or racially isolated schools. There is general agreement that students from poor families need more help to learn lessons. A specific goal is for all students to be reading thirdgrade material as they enter fourth grade. We think these funds are greatly needed if Minnesota is going to close the achievement gap between socioeconomic groups. During the last legislative session the Legislature approved funding for universal all-day/every-day kindergarten and increased funding for preschool education. We supported both provisions and believe this is a major step toward closing the achievement gap and raising the level of education for all students. In addition, districts that meet the poverty criteria can get integration aid and federal and state compensatory funding to close the achievement gap. This additional funding should also be continued. The Legislature increased special education funding by $40 million and set up a schedule of future payments. Since individual programs for children with learning disabilities by law must be funded, school districts last year spent

$585 million of general operating funds to fund special education. The underfunding of special education continues to detract from the adequacy of our total funding effort and needs to be addressed. We reduce or increase what we spend on education based on the economy. On the surface that seems to make sense. We delay payment to the schools to cover our state debt and cash flow, forcing schools to borrow on our behalf. That doesn’t make so much sense. We want long-range planning for the education of our students but we change the funding formulas and commitments every two years, reacting to everything but a long-range educational plan and specific expectations for success. We struggle to find balance between local control and state funding; between local funding and state expectations. Throw in federal funding and federal expectations and the blueprint for educational success starts to look like a Rube Goldberg design. Parents expect the programs that were available for their older child to be there for their younger child. If their neighbors pass a property tax provision, their programs will remain in place. If the levy is voted down, a child’s program is cut. If state revenues are up, the foundation formula can chase inflation. If state revenues are down, the formula lags behind. If a Legislature is anti-tax, the funding is challenged and programming is insecure. If the Legislature has too

many initiatives, funding for education suffers. If the new employee contract is affordable, programs stay in place. If a new contract exceeds revenue increases, class size goes up and programs change. So where in this system of funding is the reliability for Mom and Dad? Where in this system of funding are the assurances for each student? What is the core plan for the success of Minnesota’s schools and how financially committed are we to that plan? Some suggest the educational funding system is too complex. We would suggest the problem isn’t with complexity as much as with commitment. With commitment, however, must come accountability. We insist that accountability for expenditures be built into educational programs at the local, state and federal levels so that funds are spent to reach goals that can be measured to determine either their success or failure. Within the past few years a state study group recommended provisions for the funding of education. We think these recommendations represent a good start. We now need to revisit those recommendations in view of an educational plan and make a long-range commitment to funding that plan.

Minnesotans lose in wake of new health care law by John Kline SPECIAL TO SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The numbers are daunting. 140,000. That’s the number of people in Minnesota who already have been notified their health coverage will be canceled as a result of the president’s health care law, referred to by most including the president as “Obamacare.” For many Minnesotans a cancellation notice means more than the loss of an insurance policy; it means losing access to the trusted doctors, pediatricians, and nurses who care for their families. We all know how critical these relationships are, especially in difficult moments when a loved one is injured or ill. But for countless families, those relationships will soon be lost, all because Washington bureaucrats think they know best. In the more than three years since the president’s health care plan became law, I continually heard from constituents about the endless concerns they had with a law that has created 20,000 pages of regulations. Now, as the law is being implemented, I hear daily from Minnesotans who because of the new law, are seeing their rates skyrocket or are losing their health insurance plan altogether and being forced into government run health care where they can no longer

Guest Columnist

John Kline keep their doctor, clinic, or hospital. Linda and her husband live in Inver Grove Heights. Her husband has worked for a reputable company for more than 30 years. Three years ago, he was diagnosed with lung disease and had a lung transplant. “While the lung transplant was successful and saved his life, he has had many complications since,” Linda explains. Her husband is 59 and was told they could keep this insurance until he was 65. Due to Obamacare, she said, her husband’s employer was dropping their coverage since he was disabled and retired. “This is devastating to us,” she told me. “I am very angry that we had to be cut from our policy because of Obamacare costs.” Kurt from Eagan is seeing his health care premiums rise $200 a month because of Obamacare. “I understand I am getting more coverage, but it is coverage that I don’t need or want,” he said. “I am perfectly capable of picking coverage

that protects my family, I don’t appreciate my federal government making those decisions for me.” Debbie from Rosemount received a notice in the mail that the premium for her insurance is increasing by 50 percent a month. “The bone I have been thrown is that – at age 62 – I have coverage for birth control… and childbirth,” she explained. “My plan now is to drop coverage entirely, pay the Obama tax, and take my chances until I am Medicareeligible.” Jim is a self-employed plumber in Inver Grove Heights. He is married with three children. His family was notified their health care plan was being dropped at the end of the year due to Obamacare mandates. Jim was notified the closest available plan for his family will increase in cost by 37 percent. “We are going to pay more and get less coverage,” Jim said. “We will be paying for services that we do not want or need. I still cannot believe that in America we are forced to comply (with) mandated health insurance or face a penalty.” Mark of Prior Lake watched helplessly as his son lost his job and health care because his employer, due to Obamacare, is now only offering jobs of 28 hours-orless per week. Health care reform didn’t have to

take away coverage from those Americans who like what they have. It didn’t have to put federal bureaucrats in charge of what procedure is covered and what medication is not. Washington’s goal should have been to fix what’s broken in our health care system while preserving what works – driving down costs without sacrificing quality. During debate of Obamacare, I joined many colleagues in support of a plan designed to reduce health care costs, and improve the quality of care – all at a price our country can afford. That plan would have allowed Americans who liked their health care coverage to keep it – a stark contrast to the law being implemented today. I will continue to fight for commonsense, patient-centered solutions rather than the president’s current big government approach to health care. “It infuriates us that the government can tell us what health care we have to go with, and that we will lose our coverage,” Diane of Rosemount said. “We are not in control of our own lives anymore.” John Kline is chairman of the House Education and the Workforce Committee. He also serves on the House Armed Services Committee. He and his wife, Vicky, live in Burnsville. Columns reflect the opinion of the author.

Letters Editor’s Note Park’s trail Due to an oversight, plan strikes a a letter that referred to an immigration protest balance outside U.S. Rep. John Kline’s Burnsville office reported the protesters were not allowed in at Kline’s office and were arrested at Kline’s request. The protesters did speak with members of Kline’s Burnsville staff. Burnsville police took it upon themselves to arrest the protesters for trespassing and impeding traffic because the protesters refused to move from the roadway. Protesters also informed police prior to the protest they planned to be arrested. The newspaper regrets allowing the inaccurate statements to be published.

To the editor: My husband and I live in Farmington with our four children. We are a very active family. I operate a running group for women with busy schedules who wish to maintain their physical fitness. I am both a runner and a bicyclist along with other members of my family. Each year I run in a number of races including several half marathons. My family and I take our physical health and wellbeing seriously. While my family has always enjoyed Lebanon Hills Regional Park, we have found it difficult to access the various recreational destinations. It is not

easy to access those destinations for families like mine who enjoy biking and running. That is why I am very encouraged to hear and learn about the plan to develop a paved connector trail designed to connect these various destinations. As I understand it, the design of this connector trail generally goes along the park perimeter except in locations where it would conflict with existing trails. Speaking of existing trails, I understand this plan calls for a substantial increase in the number of miles of soft surface trails as well. In other words, this plan increases accessibility of this wonderful park to families like mine and at the same time increases soft surface trails for those who prefer them. I have seen and heard a

lot of comments about this proposal that just don’t add up. I am very encouraged by this new plan and I look forward to the day when my family and other similar families can better utilize this great park. SHANNON HERRERA Farmington

Increased wages mean price increases To the editor: After reading many current demands for a higher minimum wage, I agree that we should be sympathetic to the plight of the low wage earner. Even so, we must not divorce ourselves from some relevant and glaring facts. If the minimum wage is to become $10 per hour but a worker only produces $7 per hour in products, the employer will probably not be able to stay in business. And if an employer should be so munificent and give $10 an hour why not be truly generous and make certain all employees receive at least $100,000 per year? Yet, we know that wages, like business taxes must all be

passed on to the consumers. As the price of products and services must increase in direct proportion to the costs of manufacturing, the wages of skilled workers must also increase leaving the least productive workers earning pay at their same relative entry level. It is good to be sympathetic to the status of the entry level worker but sheer folly to think that a free lunch really exists. I am glad that U.S. Rep. John Kline, R-Burnsville, understands all of the ramifications and unintended consequences of this campaign to increase the minimum wage. I trust that reason and logic will continue to govern his every vote. RICHARD IFFERT Eagan

Increase the minimum wage To the editor: A good case can be made for raising the minimum wage to $9.50 an hour just based on its effect on the velocity of money in the local community. But of course the state would also get the moral high ground. It’s a statement that says Minne-

sota values the labor of its people. An estimated 93,000 people currently earn the minimum wage in Minnesota and are now paid at about $7.25 an hour (the federal minimum). Raising the minimum wage to $9.50 an hour would mean better wages for more than just the minimum wage workers. Nearly 360,000 Minnesotans would be affected. Among them would especially be women, people of color and youth. An increase to $9.50 an hour would only bring the annual wage for a full-time worker up to $19,760 annually – below the poverty level for a family of four in 2013 ($23,550). The higher minimum would be a step away from government dependency and an added incentive to work. Raising the minimum wage to $9.50 and hour is estimated to add more than $470 million in consumer-spending power to fuel Minnesota’s economy. Contact your local state senator and representative to tell them to support an increase in the minimum wage. JOHN LARVA Burnsville

Meals will make history while bringing churches together Campaign will benefit Feed My Starving Children by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A massive, recordbreaking effort to package nutritious meals for starving children is mobilizing south of the river. At least 15 south metro churches have joined a campaign to package 5 million meals for Feed My Starving Children. It would be the largest local campaign in the history of the Coon Rapids-based Christian charity, which has provided more than 600 million meals to children in nearly 70 countries since 1994. The churches are rounding up volunteers and donations for the mega packing event Feb. 3-9 at a location or locations to be determined. “We’ve done numerous ones over a million meals. We just got done with one in northern Indiana that was almost 2.3 million meals. But this one will be the biggest one so far,� said Andy Carr, Feed My Starving Children’s organization’s national development director. It will take 25,000 volunteers and $1.1 million in donations, said Eric Elton, director of outreach at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Burnsville. “It’s a very big undertaking,� Carr said. “They just see it as a way of engaging community. And frankly, the timing couldn’t be better given the recent disaster in the Philippines. We are in response mode to that.� Prince of Peace has packed more than 6 million meals for Feed My Starving Children in annual campaigns over the last six years, Elton said. A few other churches wanted to join the effort, which Prince of Peace welcomed. Planning began in April with leaders from Prince of Peace, Berean Baptist in Burnsville,

Students at Northview Elementary School in Eagan packed meals in March for Feed My Starving Children.

Kent Claussen Gubrud, senior

pastor. Helping to plan the larger campaign has been “an awe-inspiring experience so far,� Claussen Gubrud said. “The number got thrown out, 5 million meals. I frankly just about fell over,� he said. But the campaign has snowballed. “We’ve been working on getting people together and telling the story and sharing the vision and getting people fired up to go back to their congregations and share the vision and share the challenge and come together,�

Claussen Gubrud said. Founded in Minnesota in 1987 by businessman Richard Proudfit, Feed My Starving Children sent its first meal shipments in 1994 to Rwanda, Haiti, Belarus and Paraguay. The organization pioneered what is now known as the MannaPack. The blend of soy, vegetables, rice and vitamins is packed into plastic bags and boiled in water to make a meal that provides a day’s nutrition, Elton said. That’s what volunteers will be packing in February. At Prince of Peace

in recent years, packing shifts have taken on a festive air, with live music and interaction between the hairnet-clad volunteers. The church has attracted about 25,000 volunteers to the wintertime campaigns. “When you do it and you actually know that it’s making a difference for someone in the world, the tediousness is kind of forgotten,� Elton said, noting that most of the meals packed at Prince of Peace have been bound for Haiti. “You’re also working with people you might know or might not know, and it’s a great opportunity for conversation.� The multichurch campaign is also an ecumenical opportunity. “We’re really trying to learn how to do this massive thing together,� Elton said. “What has been really fun is to see all the churches put their theologies and denominations aside and see people working for the common good.� More than church members have volunteered at Prince of Peace. “It’s basketball teams, it’s hockey teams, it’s volleyball, it’s Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, National Honor Society. It’s field trips from schools,� Elton said. The multichurch campaign will require 1,100 to 1,200 people for each of 23 two-hour shifts, he

said. Organizers hope to find a single warehouse space of up to 80,000 square feet for the February event. Otherwise, two smaller spaces that have already been secured will suffice, Elton said. Churches committed to the project are Berean Baptist in Burnsville, Casa de Oracion in Apple Valley, Chapel Hill Baptist in Eagan, Christus Victor Lutheran in Apple Valley, Discover Church in Burnsville, Lily of The Valley in Apple Valley, Lord of Life Lutheran in Farmington, Prince of Peace Lutheran in Burnsville, Risen Savior Catholic in Burnsville, River Hills United Methodist in Burnsville, Shepherd of the Lake Lutheran in Prior Lake, South Suburban Evangelical Free in Apple Valley, St. John the Baptist Catholic in Savage, St. Thomas Becket Catholic in Eagan and Trinity Evangelical in Lakeville. Three more churches had been in contact with organizers but Elton said this week he didn’t know if they’d committed. The group plans to have a Facebook page up by Thanksgiving, Elton said.

REFORM, from 1A Nearly 3.3 million children between the ages of 3-17 have experienced or witnessed some sort of abuse in their families. Many women experiencing domestic abuse come from abusive families, and it takes an emotional toll on children who develop negative behaviors as a coping strategy, according to the Lee Carlson Center Domestic Abuse Program in Blaine. This makes breaking the cycle so critical, Milgrom said. His work at the Minneapolis-based nonprofit DAP has focused on men’s therapy and helping to change the behaviors of batterers. Counseling for men did not start at DAP until 1980 or so, and therapy for male batterers is a newer field. Women’s shelters and advocacy groups were an earlier development promoted during the feminist movement in the 1960s. DAP receives referrals from those who have gone through the Hennepin County or other corrections systems. However, the man must call and schedule the first appointment. A probation officer or significant other cannot make that call. The first step is to admit fault and seek this help, Milgrom said. The program is rooted in social justice and understanding the perpetrator must be held accountable. “Men are resistant at first, but that goes away with time,â€? Milgrom said. “We have motivational techniques that help engage them. ‌ This could be the only place that they can talk about it.â€? The men must attend at least 23 group therapy sessions for completion. The program can be finished in about four months, but men can choose to stay for up to a year. Each session costs $5. Accountability and safety measures are in place, and participants could get dismissed for absences or not following guidelines. The men sign releases so partners can call for acknowledgement that they are attending the program.

Violent behavior in a domestic relationship is most likely seen when a man feels like he is losing his significant other. It could be jealousy or awareness that she is trying to leave that triggers men to want to exert power, Milgrom said. While male batterers are usually trying to hold on to something, women batterers could become violent when they try to leave or get away from the relationship. Violence can increase after a couple gets married or if a partner is pregnant, Milgrom said, because “men see it as a threat for their attention.� Friends and co-workers of a batterer can be surprised to find out

about domestic violence, especially if a man has good anger management at work but not at home. The attachment theory can help explain how people regard a partner in a relationship differently. Sometimes this vulnerability, attachment and shame can contribute to abuse, Milgrom said. “A majority of men come from an unstable world,� he said. The absent father affects children. Girls sometimes try to fill this void with seductive relationships. Boys can go to different extremes, sometimes going into law enforcement or developing abusive patterns, Milgrom said. A majority of domestic violence cases are men battering women. Women can also be abusers, and there is an uptick in women committing violence on their partners. Sometimes they might fight back and get charged, said Natalie Keifer, the domestic abuse coordinator at Lee Carlson Center. Keifer said part of this is that women who are being controlled and manipulated build up that fight or flight reaction. “There’s shame about becoming abusive,� she said. There are few programs for these women batterers in the metro area. Keifer does some individual therapy sessions to address it. Eastside Neighborhood Services in Minneapolis is one of the organizations that offers a therapy program for women batterers.

to the hope that it will change, Keifer said. Seeking help is difficult as well because often “the batterer will isolate the person,� Keifer explains, and “they don’t feel like they can to go family or get help.�

Breaking down messages Milgrom said one of the first steps in DAP is to break down the societal messages about power and male privilege. The messages say, “They’re superior and can control women,� Milgrom said. Boys also experience more “violent socialization� growing up with societal standards of what boys should do. This is paired with hyper-sexualized images and representations of women that men are exposed to at a young age. The pornography culture is also damaging because it “creates a really fake intimacy,� Milgrom said, that also supports mainstream advertising and other negative images of women. Breaking down these messages is difficult, Milgrom said. But it’s a start. Anger then tends to become a vector or excuse for a man to “express violence and use power,� Milgrom said. Alcohol or depression can contribute to poor judgment. “Mental illness isn’t a cause,� Milgrom said. “It’s a complicating factor.�

Breakthroughs

she have to cover it up? Would she try to avoid seeing people? What pain would she experience if someone asked about it? Was it worth it? How did it affect others? Milgrom said men sometimes do not want to look at it and can struggle finding empathy for their partner. These questions might guide them toward a breakthrough. Milgrom said the biggest breakthrough is usually when a man realizes how children are affected. If they do not have children, sometimes men can look back to how seeing violence affected them as a child. “They view it through kids’ eyes with resistance, anger and shame,� Milgrom said. Women’s breakthroughs usually come when “they truly start to believe that they’re worthy of more than that,� Keifer said. The therapy program at Lee Carlson focuses on increasing self-esteem, working on shame and awareness of what a healthy relationship looks like. DAP works with men to be accountable not only for their past actions, but future ones. Men go through an anger management worksheet and make a plan for the future. According to DAP’s website, the goal for men’s therapy is for no physical violence to occur again. Follow-up research shows that more than 97 percent of men who complete the program had zero domestic abuse arrests within one year of finishing. Lee Carlson also runs a restorative parenting group to help children who have experienced this domestic abuse. Keifer said it focuses on rebuilding that relationship with a child and to create a more nurturing environment. It even delves into discipline techniques versus punishment. For more information on DAP, visit domesticabuseproject.org or call 612-874-7063. Lee Carlson Center information is available at leecarlsoncenter.org or 763-7803036. Eastside Neighborhood Services is at esns. org or 612-781-6011. Tubman Family Crisis and Support Services is at tubman.org or 612825-3333.

While breaking down rigid ways of thinking, DAP therapy groups also focus on accountability. “It holds men accountable, to take responsibility and challenges them with the feelings of change,� Milgrom said. In one session, Milgrom has the group come up with examples of “hurtful behavior.� Some might see violence as hitting someone with a closed fist, he said, so they try to list all levels of abuse. The men also get to tell their story of what happened. “For the most part, none of them tell their story all the way through,� Milgrom said. In this exercise, the man has the freedom to tell the story, then this story is framed with other questions: What did your partner have to Contact Theresa Malloy do to get out? If she had at theresa.malloy@ecma black eye, how would inc.com.

Why stay? It is often dangerous for women or men to leave an abusive situation. When children are involved, it is sometimes even more difficult to leave. The reasons vary for each individual, but Keifer said the No. 1 reason is that the victim fears the abuser. Other factors include financial dependency, fearing they would lose custody of children, substance abuse by either the victim or abuser, and even religious beliefs in the sanctity of marriage. “Embarrassment and shame comes along with it,� Keifer said. “They blame themselves a lot of the time.� Emotional attachment is also a reason to stay. Usually, a woman has a lot of love for her partner, and she can hold on

People can get intense in their relationships. But if at some point someone is feeling in danger, that’s the red flag – fear of your partner.� Leaving an abusive relationship is often the most challenging task for the victim, Eichele said. “It will take a person six to seven attempts to successfully leave an abusive relationship,� Eichele said. “And the most dan-

Lovett advises the community to think of domestic violence as a public safety issue – not a personal issue. “I think we need to move away from thinking of domestic violence as something extreme that happens or only physical violence,� Lovett said. “We need to think about the whole spectrum of domestic violence, and as a community come together to talk about it and to tackle it.� It is up to the individual in the relationship to define it as abusive or not, said Katie Eichele, direc-

gerous time for women in their relationship is when they’re attempting to leave that relationship.� Defining a perpetrator is difficult because there is no specific characteristics or personality type, Eichele said. “There’s no profile for abusive people,� Eichele said. “We want to think it’s this really bad person but the reality is, it’s not.� For Day One statewide crisis and shelter information call, 866-223-1111.

DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE November 21, 2013

METH, from 1A in large numbers since. In 2004, there were 417 meth-related arrests in Dakota County, and it was more than 300 each year from 2004-2007. It reached a low in 2009 with 124 arrests and has hovered between 160-180 since. Local laboratories are now few in far between, but the problem hasn’t gone away. In recent years, meth has increased in both quantity and quality, according to Bianconi. The Department of Justice recently released a report stating purity has increased by more than 130 percent, while cost has decreased by 60-70 percent. The biggest reason, according to Bianconi, is due to the fact that the meth trade is now controlled by Mexican cartels. “It takes fewer people involved in the organization, which ultimately has made it cheaper,� Bianconi said. “They’re flooding the market. If half their load gets stopped at the bor-

der, it doesn’t matter. They have runners and distributors up here, but it’s pennies to them. They’re making a big profit. ... The presence of cartels are becoming more established here.� According to the Drug Enforcement Administration, as much as 80 percent of meth sold in the United State originates in Mexico, where there are more sophisticated and larger laboratories. According to the DEA, Mexican meth targets urban and suburban areas with a larger client base, and Interstate 35 drives right through Dakota County, which is a direct access to the south. The now-defunct division of the Justice Department, the National Drug Intelligence Center, reported that Mexican criminal organizations, including seven major drug cartels, were operational in more than 1,000 cities in the United States. The Mexican Drug War has been a seven-year conflict

between rival cartels and government officials with a death toll somewhere between 50,000 and 100,000, according to the Mexican government and human rights organizations. “The cartels have been around for a long, long time, but the issue is the level of violence primarily in Mexico,� Dakota County Sheriff Dave Bellows said. “The number of violent crimes have become more pronounced there, but the level of violence associated with narcotics is high anywhere.� With that in mind, the Dakota County Sheriff’s department has worked with the DEA as well as the Federal Bureau of Investigation in recent years. “This is a countrywide problem,� Bianconi said. “We might start with something in Dakota County, but the case will take you right down to Arizona or the Mexican border.� Dakota County has had members of Mexican drug cartels in their jail, accord-

ing to Bellows. Compared to other areas of Minnesota and the United States, the area is far from a hot spot. “Dakota County still remains an extraordinarily safe place to live,� Bellows said. “It’s here. I would never deny that. But I don’t want to go overboard.� Meth still isn’t easy to obtain. “If someone wants to go out and buy meth today, I bet you lunch they wouldn’t find any by the end of the day,� Bianconi said. “It would take some time, but once you get involved, they seem to find it.� It’s not specific to any demographic. Dakota County covers rural, suburban and more innercity areas, but it’s “everywhere and in between,� Bianconi said. The Dakota County Drug Task Force consists of officers in the Sheriff’s Office as well as area communities coordinating together to combat illegal

drug activity. Police use undercover officers and informants during investigation, but it often starts with a tip from the community. “The public generally knows what’s going on next door,� Bianconi said. “They’re the best judge of the neighborhood.�

Other crimes

Take Back program aims to curb the use by addressing prescription drug abuse. Individuals can anonymously drop off unused prescription drugs at local police departments. Bellows said people often get addicted to leftover Vicodin and Percocet pain killers, which leads them to a low-cost alternative of heroin. “Years ago, ... heroin was 50 percent pure,� Bellows said. “Now it’s 90-95 percent.� While drug-related crimes make up 30-35 percent of arrests, many other offenses are directly related to controlled substances, according to Bellows. Individuals with violent offenses and burglary charges are often related to drugs and alcohol, whether someone is under the influence at the time or trying to sustain a habit. “To me, drugs are the fuel that feed the fire of crime,� Bellows said.

Meth-related crimes made up 44 percent of all drug prosecutions in Dakota County last year. Prosecution from marijuana, prescription drugs, cocaine and heroin all decreased from 2011 to 2012. Cocaine prosecutions dropped from 88 in 2011 to 50 in 2012. While meth remains the most prosecuted drug crime in the county, officials are also concerned about the rise in heroin use. Like meth, heroin is stronger and cheaper than it used to be. It’s often imported from Afghanistan and Mexico. Email Andy Rogers at Dakota County Drug andy.rogers@ecm-inc.com.

Area Briefs ProAct begins 77-day recycling effort ProAct, a nonprofit serving people with disabilities, is working with the Recycling Association of Minnesota to recycle holiday lights along with electrical and phone cords.

Officials look to speed up BRT in Eagan by Jessica Harper

SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Within six months of the launch the Cedar Avenue Red Line, officials are feeling the pressure to change the Eagan stop. Cedar Grove Station is part of the metro’s first limited-stop bus rapid transit service from Apple Valley to the Mall of America, and riders are frustrated by the slow stop. Buses must exit Highway 77 onto local streets to reach the station — located at 4035 Nicols Road — and then back-track to the highway. Officials knew the stop needed to be fixed but planned on doing so in the second phase of the $112 million project. Riders’ concerns have “made it a higher priority,� said Kristine Elwood, transit engineer for Dakota County. County officials are weighing whether to make the trip as short as possible for the bus or minimize the distance riders must walk between the station and the bus. One option requires construction of an elevated bridge that would take the bus up a ramp in the median of the highway over the northbound lane of Cedar Avenue and directly to the station. This option would cost about $18 million and take about 2 minutes off the 27-minute northbound trip and about 4 minutes off the 23-minute

In the second option, the bus would stop in the center of the highway and riders would walk to and from the station on a skyway. The walk would be about 400 feet and 2.5 minutes each way. This option carries a larger price tag of $23 million, and would take about 4 minutes off the northbound trip and about 6 minutes off the southbound trip. A third option would build a ramp directly from northbound Cedar to the station but would only benefit northbound buses. Local officials from the Minnesota Department of Transportation, Dakota County and the

Metropolitan Council are working together on a decision. “We hope to have a recommendation for a preferred option in the next few months,� Elwood said. Eagan city officials favored the location of the station in hopes it would spur development in the Cedar Grove Area, which is the site of a new outlet mall under construction. The Red Line connects to the Hiawatha light rail, the Blue Line, which terminates in downtown

Minneapolis. Cedar Grove accounts for 18 percent of Red Line riders, and ridership from that station has slowly risen in recent years. Ridership from Cedar Grove has increased from 2,750 in 2008 to 5,750 in 2012. Average weekly ridership in September was 1,792. Weekly ridership is expected to soar in 2030 to between 11,250 to 19,200. Jessica Harper is at jessica. harper@ecm-inc.com or facebook.com/sunthisweek.

Brighten the holidays

Holiday shoppers can give cheer to area seniors by participating in the Be a Santa to a Senior program. The program – run by the local Home Instead Senior Care office in partnership with the Burnsville Senior Center, area retailers, volunteers and members of the community – helps ensure isolated seniors receive gifts and companionship during the holidays. Participating retailers display Christmas trees featuring ornaments with seniors’ first names and their gift requests. Shoppers can pick an ornament from these trees, buy the items listed and return them unwrapped to the store, with the ornament attached. For a list of tree locations, visit www.BeaSantatoaSenior.com. Call 952-882-9300 for more information. (Photo submitted)

TOOLS, from 1A “I applaud their efforts,� Frans said of those government units that lowered levies. “I plan to work with other cities and counties as they use these new property tax tools as part of developing our important partnership.� Thirteen counties had no change in their levy from 2013 to 2014 and seven more raised it by less than 1 percent. Whether or not those translate into property tax decreases for residents is dependent on factors such as home valuation and tax base. Dakota County’s tax base grew by 4 percent, according to county finance director Matt Smith. The county is expected to increase its budget for operations and capital improvements about 14 percent from $292 million to $333 million in 2014. This is 9.5 percent below the total 2010 budget

of $368 million. The county notes that operating spending has been reduced by more than 15 percent since 2009. After recommending the addition of 20.7 fulltime equivalent positions in 2014, the county will still have reduced FTEs by 111.24, which accounts for an estimated $27 million reduction. Those new positions expected in 2014 include increases in 7.8 FTEs in Physical Development, 7.0 in Community Services and 2.5 in County Attorney. Other projects that are being funded in the 2014 budget include: • The development of Whitetail Woods Park in Empire Township, Spring Lake Park trails, Swing Bridge trailhead, Byllesby Dam spillway and natural resource restoration. • Remodeled libraries and the judicial center in Hastings.

• Highway 13 and County Road 5 interchange work to be completed in Burnsville. • Implementation of the “No Wrong Doorâ€? Community Services program, which aims to broaden community points of access for county-supported services. • New election equipment. • New library materials. Since 2009, the county’s levy amount has increased 0.1 percent while the Consumer Price Index rose 8.9 percent. The county set the same levy amount as the previous year in 2010 and 2012. For 2010, the county’s tax base fell by 4 percent, state aid was cut, 55 positions were projected to eliminated and salaries of top administrators was frozen. The 2011 levy was increased 0.8 percent to $129.4 million when the county portion of proper-

ty taxes on the median value home was projected to decline by 50 cents as residential values dropped. For 2012, changes to the Market Value Homestead Credit were credited for 3 to 4 percent increases in the county portion of taxes for the median value home despite a flat levy. The 2013 levy was reduced to $129.1 million, which was projected to result in a $29.62 drop in property taxes on a median home. The six cities in the Sun Thisweek and Dakota County Tribune coverage area are projecting levy increases ranging from 1.5 to 5.7 percent, according to the various cities. For the city portion of property taxes, the increase from 2013 to 2014 for the average or median value home is expected to range from $10 to $30. Email Tad Johnson at tad. johnson@ecm-inc.com.

According to a survey of CIS alumni, 94 percent of respondents were successful in getting other colleges to recognize U of M credits earned through the CIS program. CIS is one of several opportunities available for District 196 students to earn college credit while in high school. Others include Advanced Placement courses and tests, and concurrent enrollment agreements with specific colleges, community colleges and technical schools.

Sports Irish ride 11-game streak to Prep Bowl Rosemount faces Eden Prairie for Class 6A title by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Rosemount had spent the previous two months mowing down opponents with ruthless efficiency, but it took one play by Roseville to show that the Raiders wouldn’t go away quietly. Jacques Perra, Roseville’s star quarterback, completed a 55-yard pass on his team’s first play and kept the Raiders in the Class 6A football semifinal with his arm and legs. It still wasn’t enough, as the Irish made several big plays of their own in a 3528 victory Nov. 14 that sends them to the Prep Bowl for the second time in four years. “In the back of our minds, we know we’re going to have the opportunity to prove we’re the best team in the state in two weeks,” Rosemount coach Jeff Erdmann told his team shortly after the Roseville game ended. And if the Irish believe they need to beat the best to be the best – they have that opportunity, too. They will face Eden Prairie, two-time defending state large-school champion and owner of a 16game winning streak, in the Class 6A final at 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 29, at the Metrodome. The schools last met in football in 2009, when both were still members of the Lake Conference. It will be Rosemount’s third time in a state championship game. The Irish won the large-school title in 1981, the last year before the championship games moved inside to the Metrodome. They played in the Prep Bowl in 2010, losing to Wayzata. “It’s indescribable,” Rosemount senior cornerback Carter Yepsen said of getting a chance to play

(Photo by Rick Orndorf) in the Prep Bowl. “Football is such a big deal with the ‘Friday Night Lights’ atmosphere and everything. Not many kids get to play football after high school, so it’s exciting to think I’ll end my high school career playing in a game like that.” The Irish (11-1) have won 11 in a row. Ten of their first 11 victories were by at least 24 points. But Roseville challenged the Irish’s pass defense. Perra opened a wild first half by throwing a 55-yard pass to Jordan Gannon on his team’s first play. That moved the ball to the Rosemount 25 and set up a 12-yard touchdown pass from Perra to Andrew Colvard. “Our guys had to understand that (the Raiders) were going to make some plays,” Rosemount coach Jeff Erdmann said. “And we had to let our guys play. If you start making changes right away, now your players are thinking, ‘Holy crap, (the coaches) don’t have any confidence in us.’” Rosemount responded almost immediately with Jackson Erdmann’s 25yard touchdown pass to

Tyler Hartigan, making it 7-7 just 4:18 into the game. Perra scored on a 1-yard run as Roseville regained the lead. The Irish came back with Williams’ wingback sweep for a 37-yard touchdown run with 24 seconds left in the quarter. The conversion attempt was wide left, however, and Roseville retained a 14-13 lead. The Irish forced Roseville to punt early in the second quarter and took possession on their 49yard line. On first down, Rosemount’s offensive line cleared a wide path for senior running back Trent Woodcock, who raced to a 51-yard touchdown and his team’s first lead. When Roseville had to punt again late in the second quarter, Williams caught it at the right hashmark, took off toward the left sidline and ran past three Raiders players for a 77-yard touchdown return. Williams said the blocking had been set up for a return down the left sideline – hence the long lateral run toward the opposite sideline, which often is regarded as not ideal for kick returns. But he got

Dimitri Williams scored two touchdowns in Rosemount’s 35-28 victory over Roseville in the state Class 6A semifinals. (Photo by Rick Orndorf) to the corner and once he turned upfield the blockers escorted him to the end zone. That made it 27-13, but Roseville closed the gap on a 6-yard touchdown pass from Perra to Colvard in the final minute of the first half. The pace actually slowed a little in the third quarter as each team had to punt on its first possession. The scoreboard started spinning again when Erdmann scored on a 1-yard run and caught a pass from Williams for a two-point conversion that made it 35-21. Through three quarters, the Irish were averaging more than 10 yards a play (33 plays, 348 yards). Again, Roseville came back, this time with a

four-play, 65-yard drive, ending with Perra’s 31yard touchdown pass to Tommy Arcand with 3:46 to play in the third quarter. The Raiders opened the fourth quarter on their 12-yard line and still in the game, trailing 35-28. They couldn’t score again, although they threatened. On their final drive they had fourth and four at the Irish 19 with two minutes remaining, but the Rosemount defense pressured Perra into an off-target throw. Perra passed for 296 yards and three touchdowns and also gained 80 of his team’s 96 rushing yards. The Rosemount defense sacked him four times. The Irish gained 327

yards rushing, led by Williams, who had 138 yards on 15 carries. Jackson Erdmann rushed for 74 yards and Woodcock gained 71. Carter Yepsen, whose twin brother Connor is Rosemount’s other starting cornerback, said the Irish tried to take away Perra’s favorite receiver, Jesper Horsted, by double-covering him. It did appear to have an effect as Horsted was held to five catches for 52 yards. “We haven’t seen a quarterback like (Perra) this year,” Carter Yepsen said. “But we thought we’d be able to get enough stops so our offense could get going.” Email Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecminc.com.

Hawks close to toppling a dynasty DU loses 1-goal game in PI Division soccer final by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

In all high school sports, but especially adapted sports, the opportunity to participate is supposed to take priority over wins and losses. “Tell that to my players,” Lorrie Buecksler said with a wry smile. Dakota United played in one of the most memorable championship games in the history of the state adapted soccer tournament, and Buecksler said the Hawks shouldn’t be ashamed about their runner-up finish. Still, she said, it’s difficult not to wonder how her players

might be feeling if they had won. Dakota United, a cooperative that includes students from Apple Valley, Eagan, Eastview and Rosemount high schools, was close to ending Robbinsdale/Hopkins/Mound Westonka’s reign as state champions in the PI (physical impairments) Division. But the Robins scored two goals in the final three minutes for a 5-4 victory in Saturday’s championship game at Stillwater High School. “No matter the sport, our kids are competitive,” Buecksler said. “They wanted to win this last year, and they came close

(Dakota United also lost to the Robins in the 2012 state final). They played well, really amazing. These are great kids who pushed themselves hard all season.” Sophomore Grayson Nicolay, an all-tournament selection, scored all four of Dakota United’s goals in the championship game and had 13 in the tournament. Nicolay, Anthony Vervais and Jaayson Meyer were named to the alltournament team. Dakota United (12-1) was the top seed from the South Division, while the Robins (9-0) were the top seed from the North.

When he’s introduced before adapted soccer games, Stephen Friday takes the floor with a somersault, much like Ozzie Smith did in his heyday with the St. Louis Cardinals. When Smith did it before baseball games, it helped fire up the crowd. Does it have the same effect on Friday’s teammates? “Oh yeah, it does,” Friday said. “Every game.” Who’s to argue? Thanks in part to its somersaulting, athletic goalie, Burnsville/Farmington/Lakeville won its first state adapted soccer championship, defeating Park Center 8-1 in the CI (cognitive impairments) Division championship game Saturday at Stillwater High School. The Blazing Cats won their second state adapted sports championship; the other was in softball last spring. Many of the adapted soccer players also were on the softball team, and Friday said that experience helped. “Just with teamwork. It brought us all together,” he said. The Blazing Cats rolled through a 14-0-1 season. The only game they didn’t win was a 4-4 tie against South Washington Coun-

(Photo by Rick Orndorf) ty in October. Burnsville/ Far mington/Lakeville didn’t get a chance for a rematch because Park Center beat South Washington County 9-8 in overtime in the state semifinals. “I think the softball tournament experience helped because it helped the kids get used to playing in front of bigger crowds,” said Blazing Cats coach Shawn Tatge. “They might have been a little less nervous at the start of the tournament. “We came here and played North Suburban, Anoka-Hennepin and Park Center, three really good teams. For us to beat all three says something about these kids and the

way they played.” The Blazing Cats’ three state opponents were a combined 27-3 entering the tournament. Brayan Estrada Martinez scored four goals in the championship game, giving him 11 for the tournament. Michael Burns, Logan Dougherty, Marshae Haley and Manny Desouza had one goal each. Friday had 19 saves, making a variety of scrambling stops and keeping Park Center off the scoreboard until the Blazing Cats had a sixgoal lead. Friday, Estrada Martinez and Burns were named to the all-tournament team.

She knows that going to press with the book is not so much of an ending as it is a beginning as history is continually being made in Rosemount. For successive printings, Bouchard is preparing new information about the Rosemount Community Center, the Rosemount High School marching band’s trip to the Tournament of Roses Parade in 2014 and much more. “That’s what I love about history,� she said. “As soon as I finish a book, there are new things to include.� Copies of the book are $32.95 plus tax.

BOOK, from 1A

comes from Rosemount Mayor Bill Droste. “To maintain a community that is both close-knit and diverse, it is important to understand how we started and why we developed the way we did,� he wrote in the book’s preface. “It is my hope that the efforts of the Rosemount Area Historical Society like this book will bond us more closely as we seek to preserve an understanding of our past even as we reach toward the future.� To help assemble the book, Bouchard enlisted the help of Burnsville resident Jack Kennelly, whose family traces their roots in Rosemount, to edit the book. Dakota County Technical College instructor Connie Larson designed the book. Bouchard jokes that Kennelly and Larson probably didn’t know what they were getting themselves into by working on the project as its six-month timeline turned into eight months, then into a year.

of Hap and Betty Hanson, told members of the Rosemount Area Historical Society that the Hansons had bequeathed in their will an endowment to the society to fund publications. Hap Hanson, the first superintendent of School District 196, and Betty Hanson, a longtime librarian who was instrumental in libraries being included in the development of new schools in Rosemount, died in 1999 and 1974, respectively. “We knew we were going to jump on this,� Bouchard said, but they really didn’t know how. Bouchard, who said she does not consider herself a writer and isn’t a native of Rosemount, hesitated at the thought of writing a history book. She was born and raised in St. Paul and moved to Rosemount 29 years ago, though the Geraghty family has a long history in town, including having their name associated with one of the few 1900s-era buildings left at the corner of Highway 3 and 145th Street. It was not until she was cleaning out boxes at the West St. Paul historical society site that she found all the inspiration she would need. “I found some of the drafts of the county history book and it was all redlined,� Bouchard said. “I thought if she could get redlined, I can get redlined.� Bouchard said much of the history in the book had been compiled already, but needed to be organized. She had done countless interviews over the years and started collecting new information with interviews and research. She estimates she spoke to about 200 people in the

Bill Lauer, a partner at Malloy, Montague, Karnowski and Radosevich & Co., PA (MMKR), presented an overview of audit results for the Fiscal Year 2012-13 Audited Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (Exhibit E).

Specifically, the report explained differences between the projected budget and the actual revenues and expenditures. The auditors gave the district a “clean� unmodified opinion, the highest opinion they are able to give, on basic financial statements. (Exhibit E). Lauer said on the Financial Statement Audit there was one deficiency in internal controls over cash receipts collected outside of the District Office business office and no compliance findings. He noted that with the implementation of FeePay, a comprehensive fee management system, the district has experienced a reduction of cash and checks collected at school site levels. Lauer reported the district received a clean opinion on federal award expenditures and no material weakness or compliance findings were identified in federal and state audits. For Student Activities, Lauer reported a clean opinion was received on receipts and disbursements. He shared compliance findings for internal controls and compliance reports citing the district records student activity receipts on a cash basis and controls are not in place to assure all receipts are recorded. During audit testing, one school had four of 36 receipts that lacked

supporting documentation, three of 36 disbursements did not have two signatures on the check and one of 36 disbursements did not have an authorized check request. He reviewed fund balances, revenues and expenditures, and a 10-year history of the general fund. Lauer noted the district’s cash flow was impacted negatively as a result of the percentage change in state aid being paid by June 30, the tax shift increase and the consequent short-term borrowing. Board members thanked finance employees and noted that although District 196 is considered an average-spending district in total, our district spends more than the state average on instruction. In summary, Lauer said the district general fund is in sound financial condition. The board is scheduled to act on the 2012-13 Audited Comprehensive Annual Financial Report at its next regular meeting. Director of Human Resources Tom Pederstuen highlighted terms from the two-year collective bargaining agreement with Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan (RAVE) Clerical Association (Exhibit F). On October 22, 2013, members of the bargaining unit ratified the agreement, which is effective July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2015 and terms include: • Increasing the salary schedules by 2 percent each year, plus an additional five cents in the second year; • Increasing the longevity schedules by 2 percent each year; • Increasing contributions to health insurance by 3 percent the first year and 3.75 percent the second year; • Increasing the annual contribution to the tax-deferred matching plan by $50 the first year and $55 the second year, and • Other minor language modifications. Pederstuen noted the total cost of the contract is within the parameters set by the School Board and asked the board to approve the agreement. Albright announced he would be abstaining from the vote since his wife is covered by this contract. Motion by Huusko, seconded by Roseen and carried, with five members voting in favor, no member voting in opposition and Albright abstaining, to approve the agreement. Pederstuen highlighted terms from the two-year collective bargaining agreement with the Support Staff Association of Independent School District 196, representing custodial, grounds, maintenance and warehouse employees (Exhibit G). On October 17, 2013, members of the bargaining unit ratified the agreement, which is effective July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2015 and terms include: • Increasing the salary schedules by 2 percent each year; • Increasing the longevity schedules by 2 percent each year and an additional longevity step was added for employees with 8 or more years of service; • Increasing contributions to health insurance by 2 percent the first year and 4 percent the second year; • Increasing the annual contribution to the tax-deferred matching plan by $150 the first year and $105 the second year, and • Other minor language modifications. Pederstuen noted the total cost of the contract is within the parameters set by the School Board and asked the board to approve the agreement.

Motion by Roseen, seconded by Huusko and carried, with six members voting in favor and no member voting in opposition, to approve the agreement. Albright reminded residents to vote on November 5 and announced election information is available on the district’s website. Berenz commented on the School Board offices and levy referendum question that are on the November 5 ballot. Magnuson thanked members of Troop 235 for attending and commented on the role of the School Board. Motion by Schutte, seconded by Roseen and carried, with six members voting in favor and no member voting in opposition, to adjourn the meeting at 6:30 p.m. Published in Dakota County Tribune November 22, 2013 56362

Buffalo dreams and maps of spiritual territory Burnsville author John Solensten’s new novel draws from Lakota myths by Andrew Miller SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Though it’s set in South Dakota, the inspiration for John Solensten’s novel “Buffalo Grass� came from his time in the Korean War. It was during his stint in the U.S. Army in Korea more than 60 years ago that Solensten struck up a friendship with John Good Thunder, a Lakota infantryman who gave the writer an insider’s view of Native American life. “I got to know him and spent hours and hours talking with him about his life,� said Solensten, 84, a Burnsville resident and retired Concordia University English professor. The two soldiers were separated in Korea after Good Thunder lost part of his hand when a grenade exploded near him during combat. When the two reconnected back in Minnesota, Good Thunder was “pretty much a mess,� owing to heavy drinking. Solensten later learned, from a newspaper article, that his friend had hung himself in a Duluth jail. But the experiences Good Thunder shared

about Lakota life while in Korea served as the basis for Solensten’s trilogy of novels starting with “Good Thunder� in 1983 and followed by “In the Belly of the Horse� in 2007. “Buffalo Grass,� published in August, follows a man who retires to a South Dakota ranch after losing his job on Wall Street. There’s a giant white buffalo on the property, and the man’s dreams are haunted by the White Buffalo Calf woman of Lakota myth. Solensten, who’s published a total of five novels and scores of stories and poems, is the winner of the Minnesota Voices Award in the short story category and National Association of Writers & Writing Programs Award for novels. He’s now completing work on a short-story collection titled “Madness, North Dakota: Stories from a Town on the Edge of Things.� The author describes the collection as 14 tales of eccentrics in “a town that’s barely surviving.� Solensten continues to write regularly, approach-

“Buffalo Grass� is Burnsville author John Solensten’s third novel set in South Dakota, a state he often refers to as his “spiritual territory.� (Photo submitted) ing the craft with a workman’s mentality. “Writing is hard work – nothing is romantic about it for me,� he said, who cites American authors Ambrose Bierce, Stephen Crane and Sherwood Anderson as some of his literary influences. The value of writing, and of literature, lies in the new horizons it opens, he said. “We can only live one life – in some ways that’s a limitation,� he said. “But by participating in the lives of other people, we can move on to a deeper enjoyment of life.� Email Andrew Miller at andrew.miller@ecm-inc. com.

Winter art exhibit

in Burnsville. With the aim of representing a feminine view of the world, she and Tierney, who teaches at Brushworks, launched LaFeminine in November 2011 with a two-woman exhibit at the Burnsville PAC. “I wanted to do something that would support women as artists and support women that really had something to say,� Schwartz said of launching the group. The group’s latest exhibit is subtitled “New Dreams, New Visions, New Directions,� and all three women involved selected works for the show that emphasized growth and evolution – as artists

and, more generally, as people. “We all kind of agreed we were going to push each other in new directions and produce art beyond the scope of what we would normally do,� said Tierney. A third LaFeminine show is planned for the Burnsville Performing Arts Center gallery in 2015. “LaFeminine is a big idea – how far it will go, we don’t know,� Schwartz said. More about “Metamorphosis� is at www. burnsvillepac.com. Email Andrew Miller at andrew.miller@ecm-inc.com.
