Winners announced in The Great Lanesboro Snow Art Challenge
Ostrander talks cars, cats and cleanup By R ich Wicks rich@fillmorecountyjournal.com
The Ostrander City Council met on April 4. Members present were Erin Volkart, Pam Kunert, Mayor Pat Nesler, Clerk Chris Hyrkas, and Heidi Jones. DJ Start was absent. Jason Boynton, on behalf of the Smith Schafer accounting firm, gave a summary of the annual audit of the city’s finances, which resulted in an unmodified “clean” opinion. He shared that there were no legal compliance exceptions, and the only “issue” found is in regards to segregation of duties, which is solely related to the small size of the city’s staff. He stated, “We don’t anticipate that going to change, but we do continue to report it.” He noted that General Fund receipts totaled about $225,000, and disbursements were about $203,000, so the fund
balance grew by over $20,000. He also stated, “The (only) big change is that we started issuing debt for the infrastructure project”. Two citizens addressed the council regarding vehicles on their property. One said that while he does have many vehicles on his property, “They’re all licensed and tabbed… why is that anybody else’s business?” Police Chief Mosher agreed that, “Your vehicles, if they’re all licensed, are all in compliance.” Council members explained that other citizens have complained about some properties that have many vehicles, and that cities have tried to address this issue in a variety of ways, but Ostrander did not take any action on the issue at the last meeting. Another citizen then spoke to the council about a vehicle that he has in his yard for decorative purposes, but he recently got it licensed to See OSTRANDER Page 10

Now that spring is here, it is a good time to take a look back at the winter we endured and enjoyed, including the results of The Great Lanesboro Snow Art Challenge. During this first annual event in Lanesboro, Minn., organizer David Applen states that people had fun, which is what it’s all about. Applen explains, “the reason I wanted to do this is because in the winter there is not much to do,” compared to other times of the
year and he says, “if you can go out with your families” and have fun you will also create memories. The directions for The Great Lanesboro Snow Art Challenge are simple: “Build a snow sculpture of whatever you like. Be creative! The only rule is to have fun. After you’ve taken the picture, upload to one of the sites listed below. At the end of the competition, a committee will decide on the winners,” explains a flyer on the event. If a person does not have access
to a camera or a computer they could contact Applen to get a photo taken and uploaded on the sites which include The Great Lanesboro Snow Art Challenge on Facebook, and #lanesborosnowart. The Great Lanesboro Snow Art Challenge is open to anyone who lives in Lanesboro because, “We’re all kids at heart and we need to have some winter fun!” states advertising for the event. The challenge will begin each fall/winter when the snow starts and continues into the next year See LANESBORO Page 2

Jeff Broberg, geologist, environmental consultant, and NTC board member, spoke to the Preston City Council about the center’s activities at the council’s April 3 meeting. Broberg, an avid fisherman, named other NTC board members that come together giving their time and energy to make the center work. Board member George Spangler was in the audience. The center was started about seven years ago with a grand vision for a big center, a very expensive proposition. To bring that vision closer to a reality will take more community support. Some positive direction the center is taking includes the

Lewis will work year round, has experience in non-profit fund raising, and will put her energy into promoting the NTC. She is also an avid fisherman. Hoffmann directs students at Winona State and will work for the center in season, Wednesday through Saturday. The intention is to have a program every other week. Broberg suggested the center could grow toward a community center for outdoor activities. The habitat improvement project within Preston has been fully permitted and should begin soon.

and Judson say they will be entering a piece of snow art again next year. These two top finishers will relish the traveling trophy until the next champion is crowned - unless they take the top prize again next year! Second place went to Ellen Nelson, who created an impressive bright green Brontosaurus Long Neck named “Harold” who also had blue spots on his back and certainly did have a long neck! Third place was presented to fiveyear-old Lauren Schultz, daughter of Matt and Stacey Schultz. Her uncle, Greg Slominski from Bozeman, Mont., saw Lauren’s creativity come out while he assisted in building the snow art Lauren named “Frostina Snowflake.” The title for Most Unique snow art went to Andy Sobota and Shonda Tohm, who sculpted an Easter Island statue, called a Moai, out of snow and colored it a medium shade of brown, making it look like stone.

nowartchallenge. David Applen and his wife Laurie created snow art in their own yard, which they did not enter into the contest but did it just for the fun of it. Applen would like to thank all of those who built snow art for the first annual Great Lanesboro Snow Art Challenge and hopes everyone enjoyed themselves. He also wishes to thank the judges who were involved in the challenge and voting on the many different entry photos that were submitted, and also to Dennis Solberg of Solberg Welding in Harmony, Minn., for making the traveling trophy for the yearly challenge. Special thanks go to the many Lanesboro businesses for their generous donations. These include Grandma’s Inn, Root River Saloon, Windy Mesa Jewelry, S & A Petroleum, Gil B’s, Amish Experience and E2 Boutique, Krage Insurance Agency, Granny’s Liquor, Lanesboro Art Center, Cottage House Inn, Another Time, Mrs. B’s Inn, Little River General Store, The Black Crow, The Cracked Egg, Scenic Design, Planet Brick and the Corner Grocery Store, Old Village Hall, Emil Farquart and Vis Plumbing & Heating.

Prizes included first place - $300 and a traveling trophy, second place - $200, third place - $100, and Most Unique - $200. In its first year, The Great Lanesboro Snow Art Challenge brought a lot of families outside, which resulted in photos of many sculptures. Winners of The Great Lanesboro Snow Art Challenge 2017 are listed below. First place honors went to siblings Delia Bell and Judson Bell, children of Don and Anna Bell, who built a large egg out of snow, set a live chicken on top of it, and also placed a nest of straw underneath the egg. They named their snow sculpture “Proud Mother,” which is very fitting. Both Delia

C ommentary Recycling 101 By LaVerne C. Paulson Recycling Education Coordinator Six months ago, Fillmore County held its fall Hazardous Household Waste Day at the Fillmore County Resource Recovery Center in Preston. Well, it’s LaVerne C. now time for Paulson the spring of 2017 event. You are invited and encouraged to participate in this collection that is scheduled for May 2, the first Tuesday in May. The hours for the collection will be from noon until 5 p.m. Below is a partial listing of the hazardous waste Fillmore County will accept free of charge on that day. If you miss this party, the 2017 fall collection day is scheduled for the first Tuesday of October 2017, October 3. The list of hazardous materials doesn’t change much from one year to the next, and I know you have seen this list at least once before, but here is some of the stuff you may have lurking about in your basement, under your sink, in the garage, or a storage shed that you really should dispose of correctly. We are accepting partially filled aerosol cans, oven cleaners, antifreeze, lawn care products, bug killers, weed killers, all forms of rodent poison, motor oil, outdated fuel, (both gasoline and diesel), adhesives, and tar. Do not store these materials that you are not going to use or are outdated..... and may I remind you again....... please do not pour them down a gopher hole out on the back Editorial Cartoon
forty. They will find their way into our drinking water sooner or later. Paint..... Yes, we want it, both oil base and latex, as well as paint thinners, wood preservatives, adhesives, epoxy, glue, stains, and varnishes. Paint cans that are empty and dried out are not hazardous and should be landfilled. If you have a can of paint that is leaking, place it in a larger pail or double bag it to keep it confined and not spilling in your trunk, truck bed, or on the floor of the building where the hazardous waste is unloaded and separated. Rechargeable batteries and button batteries are meant to be recycled. Of the thousands and thousands of hearing aid batteries that are used each year in Fillmore County, a surprisingly small number find their way to the Resource Center to be recycled. We need to change that. Cadmium, mercury, lead, and lithium found in these batteries are not meant to be burned or buried and released into the soil, air, or water. Batteries are accepted at the Resource Recovery Center throughout the year. As always, if you have a neighbor or two who are unable to attend this event, check with them to see if they have any items that need correct disposal. Hazardous material is classified as that for a reason. Last fall, nearly 300 households contributed to the HHW collection. Thank you for protecting the environment by correctly disposing of all these nasty, unwanted poisons. Fillmore County reserves the right to refuse any items not listed. Notices of this event will also be published in county newspapers.

Waking nightmares: Sleep paralysis
By Yasmin Scrabeck One of the scariest nights I’ve ever had was a little over a year ago. I woke up, but not in a typical way. Despite being alone in my room, I heard a loud voice in my ear. There was also a loud ringing noise building Yasmin up by the secScrabeck ond. My eyes were closed and refused to open. A light seemed to flash behind them, showing blurred imprints of what could have been a face. A sensation only described as floating out of my body started in my hands and moved to my head. I was completely sure that there was some sort of demon in my room, trying to possess my body. I couldn’t move an inch. It was one of the most frightening experiences I’d ever had. When I finally did wake up completely, I needed to know more. This is how I became familiar with sleep paralysis. Before we begin, it’s important to note that sleep paralysis, like many ailments of the mind, body, and soul, can and will differ in each person. My experience won’t match exactly with another person’s. Sleep paralysis is simply defined as not being able to move when you wake up. In general, this state can cause panic and hallucinations. Common symptoms are similar to what I experienced that night: loud noises, voices, floating or feeling pushed down, feeling an evil presence, flashing lights, and even sometimes odd smells. Typically, one will experience
this paralyzing sensation when they are coming out of REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep. REM sleep produces very vivid dreams, so our body’s natural response is to shut down the muscles in order to keep the person from acting out dreams. Occasionally, in the case of sleep paralysis, a person will wake up before the REM cycle is over. After about 1-2 minutes, that person will either fall back asleep or wake up out of it. Causes for sleep paralysis are difficult to find. It could be sleep deprivation (most likely my cause), certain sleeping disorders like narcolepsy, or even genetics. In general, about 8% of the population experiences sleep paralysis, a third of those people having some mental disorder such as anxiety or depression. Treatment isn’t a fully researched part of the sleep paralysis map, but regular sleep patterns and sleeping on the stomach are a couple of sugges-

tions to prevent an attack from happening. It’s good to be aware of the things our minds are capable of. The world we live in helps us a lot. I was able to look up what was happening to me almost right away. Years back, they didn’t have that luxury, and many even thought the experience might be actual demons attempting to possess their bodies. Some scientists believe that those who think they’ve been abducted by aliens were probably victims of sleep paralysis. I’ll let you decide which you want to believe. So, my friends, before you sleep tonight, think about it for a little bit. Will you wake up unable to move? Perhaps it will only last seconds, or maybe a minute. You may hear noises. You may sense an evil in the room. At least now you are prepared; you know exactly what you will be experiencing. The best thing to do in the situation is to remain calm and try your best to snap out of it. The human body is amazing, but sometimes has its flaws. In order to understand it, we have to accept it. And that entails knowing that sometimes your body might make you live out a waking nightmare. Good night, sleep tight, and don’t let the paralysis bug bite. Yasmin Scrabeck is a student at Mabel-Canton High School. She is one of eight area students participating in the Journal Writing Project, now in its eighteenth year.

C ommentary Smarter government for smarter kids By Tim Penny Whether you prefer small government or big government, perhaps the better conversation is around what smarter government could do. Smart government requires collaboration and a long-term vision. It helps when you can start from a place of shared interest. An op-ed in the Star Tribune on March 9 talked about ending the cur- Tim Penny rent “hodgepodge approach to early education in Minnesota.” Amidst all of the areas of disagreement happening at both state and federal levels, our children - our next generation - continue to be a topic where legislators can find common ground. At Southern Minnesota Initiative Foundation (SMIF), smart investments in kids have been part of the Foundation’s 30 year history. It makes sense that if you want a long-term competi-
tive global advantage, you start young. From our experience, we know this to be true, and studies prove this out. University of Chicago Professor and Nobel Laureate in economics James J. Heckman’s newest analysis shows that “high-quality birthto-five programs for disadvantaged children can deliver a 13% per year return on investment.” In our rural communities, SMIF has advocated against any sort of “silver bullet” approach to providing early childhood care. However, this does not mean that as a state we can’t find some efficiencies in how early childhood investments are allocated. The proposed bill for an Early Childhood Access Fund, with a special director to provide oversight, could cut back on the current piecemeal approach. However, the issue is complex and the answers will not come without a lot of collaborative discussion with child care providers, trainers, certifiers, educators and funders. We’ve seen what happens when a bill gets proposed without affected partners getting a chance to weigh
in. Starting with the achievement gaps in early education can help address other issues facing Minnesota. Again, going back to research, we know that while Minnesota often leads the way in education, we are near the bottom when it comes to the achievement gap between white children and children of color. Forty thousand low-income kids in our state don’t have access to affordable, quality early learning programs (Close Gaps by 5). Given the 400,000 worker shortfall Minnesota is facing by 2030, we’re not in a position to be letting any children fall behind. Furthermore, we are in the midst of an early childhood care crisis that has become an economic development threat. Current child care providers are retiring, there’s a gap between what providers are paid and what parents can pay, and businesses are struggling to recruit workers because they can’t promise access to affordable care. This is another area where a short-term fix won’t be enough; we need smart, long-
State gains 3,800 jobs in February Unemployment rate steady at 4% ST. PAUL – Minnesota employers added 3,800 jobs in February, according to seasonally adjusted figures announced today by the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED). In addition, the agency said January’s job losses were revised from 8,300 jobs lost to 3,900 jobs lost. Over the past year, the state has gained 39,564 jobs, a growth rate of 1.4%. U.S. job growth during that period was 1.7%. Minnesota’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was steady in February at 4%, the seventh consecutive month at that level. The U.S. unemployment rate was 4.7% in February. “The February report is another sign that Minnesota’s economy is moving in the right direction,” said DEED Commissioner Shawntera Hardy. “Businesses are adding jobs and people are finding work in growing industries like construction and education and
health services.” Trade, transportation and utilities led all sectors last month with 5,700 new jobs. Other sectors gaining jobs were construction (up 4,500), manufacturing (up 1,100), education and health services (up 800), other services (up 800) and logging and mining (up 100). The following industries lost jobs: professional and business services (down 3,100), leisure and hospitality (down 2,800), government (down 2,400), information (down 700) and financial activities (down 200). Over the past year, education and health services gained 16,534 jobs, followed by trade, transportation and utilities (up 8,706), construction (up 6,101), government (up 3,711), financial activities (up 3,465), other services (up 3,346) and logging and mining (up 886). Four sectors lost jobs in the past 12 months: leisure and

hospitality (down 1,966), manufacturing (down 748), professional and business services (down 286) and information (down 185). In the Metropolitan Statistical Areas, the following regions gained jobs in the past 12 months: Minneapolis-St. Paul MSA (up 1.6%), Rochester MSA (up 0.8%), St. Cloud MSA (up 1.5%) and DuluthSuperior MSA (up 0.3%). The Mankato MSA lost jobs (down 0.2%). DEED has added a section to its website that examines the unemployment rate by demographics (race, age and gender) and looks at alternative measures of unemployment.

term approaches and lawmakers who understand the many variables involved. SMIF’s role is just one of a much larger effort to address these issues. SMIF’s Quality Child Care Program has been providing a model to get our child care providers on the path to higher quality. Another bill pending in the Minnesota Legislature (SF 2090) would appropriate $1.5 million so the Minnesota Initiative Foundations that would help us continue to work within the 80 Greater Minnesota counties - 52.4% of children live in Greater Minnesota (Minnesota Kids Count 2016) - to align resources for quality early learning opportunities. SMIF works with partners like the five other Minnesota Initiative Foundations, First Children’s Finance, Child Care Aware of Minnesota, Minnesota Department of Education, multiple task forces, local care providers and business leaders and elected representatives to bring these issues to light and start working for collaborative, creative solutions. SMIF’s Quality Child Care Program has already worked with hundreds of providers across 13
counties in our 20-county region to get them on a path to quality through the state’s Parent Aware rating system. SMIF’s Early Childhood Initiatives are another approach, underscoring the need for many voices to be at the table, from educators to providers to families to the business community. Our Vice President of Early Childhood, Rae Jean Hansen, is on the Minnesota Committee of the National Academy of Sciences to lend a national perspective to SMIF’s work in rural Minnesota, as well as the Start Early Funders Network. These conversations inform the needs and SMIF’s response. As early childhood education bills go forward in the State House and Senate, I ask elected officials to make sure that similarly, all voices are at the table. We certainly have room for growth, and the State-level is a good place to push for a more equitable education agenda. Smart early education investments are vital to Minnesota’s future success. As always, I welcome your comments and questions. You can reach me at timp@smifoundation.org or (507) 455-3215.

State of Minnesota In District Court County of Fillmore Third Judicial District Court File 23-CV-17-72 TO: ALL PERSONS WITH A LEGAL INTEREST IN THE PARCELS OF REAL PROPERTY DESCRIBED IN THE FOLLOWING DELINQUENT TAX LIST A list of real property in Fillmore County on which delinquent property taxes and penalties are due has been filed with the Court Administrator of Fillmore County. This list is published to inform all persons that the listed property is subject to forfeiture because of delinquent taxes. The property owner, taxpayer, or other interested person must either pay the tax and penalty, plus interest and costs, or file a written objection with the Fillmore County Court Administrator. The objection must be filed by May 01, 2017 stating the reason why the tax or penalty is not due on the property. If no objection is filed, a court judgment will be entered against the property for the unpaid tax, penalty, interest, and costs. For property under court judgment, the period of redemption begins on May 08, 2017. The period of redemption means the time within which taxes must be paid to avoid losing the property through forfeiture. The period of redemption is three years, with a handful of exceptions. The redemption period is one year for most properties located in a targeted neighborhood, as defined in the Minnesota laws, and for municipal solid waste disposal facilities. The redemption period is five-weeks for certain abandoned or vacant properties. You may also enter into a confession of judgment as an alternative method to paying off the delinquent tax amount and avoiding forfeiture. This allows you to pay the delinquent balance in equal annual installments with a down payment due at the time you confess judgment. The length of the installment plan varies: 5 years for commercial-industrial/public utility property; 10 years for all other properties. If you have homesteaded property, you may be eligible for a Senior Citizen’s Property Tax Deferral, which enables seniors to pay just 3% of their total household income and allow remaining amounts to become a lien on the property that may be deferred for later payment (perhaps upon eventual sale of the property). It should also be noted by property homesteaders that you are ineligible to receive the Property Tax Refund while you owe delinquent property tax. To determine how much interest and costs must be added to pay the tax in full, contact the Fillmore County Auditor/Treasurer’s Office, Fillmore County Courthouse, Preston, MN 55965. The telephone number is: (507) 765-3811. JAMES D.

avoid being out of compliance with the city’s ordinance. Citizens also addressed the council about concerns that the cat population within the city may become excessive. Mosher shared that he has gotten complaints about cats, and does have a trap that he uses when property owners request it. He pointed out that when cats are caught, they are not harmed, but rather are taken to farms or homes that are willing to keep them. Rick Whitney (Peopleservices) spoke to the council about his request

to be allowed to buy several water meters to replace some in the city that are obsolete. After discussion, the council chose to approve of him buying six of the “Badger” type meters. Whitney also pointed out that next week, the city will be doing spring flushing, and he stated that the wastewater treatment plant has been doing well. Chief Mosher summarized March’s police activity report, including a continuing concern regarding garbage that sometimes blows into the park from the nursing home. He said on very windy days, this has been a problem. He also stated that the park needs to be “rolled” to level out the ground, but suggested the garbage

situation should be solved first. He will meet with staff at the nursing home to see what can be done. Regarding the Ruud property, the council discussed the situation in which the city became aware that the property was already within city limits, and had been since about 1935. Hyrkas pointed out that, “We’re not going to do any back taxes,” but the appropriate taxes will be collected from now on. The council agreed that since the property is within city limits, farm animals will not be allowed. The council then discussed the Miller farm building permit situation. A total fee of $401.88 will be charged for the building additions made.
The council discussed off-sale liquor sales. An email the city received states that “Minnesota Courts have stated that a city cannot prohibit opening on a day allowed by the state,… however the statute does allow for the City to restrict hours…” The council considered options regarding the off-sale section of the city’s code. After discussion, the council voted to amend the city’s code regarding offsale to say the hours of operation and days of sale shall be those set by Minnesota Statute. Council members said this is the best option, because then the city does not need to rewrite
if/when the State makes changes. The council voted to pay a $60,000 invoice from Bolton & Menk for the design phase of the infrastructure project. The next regular meeting of the council will be Tuesday, May 2, at 6 p.m. The public is welcome. It was also pointed out that citywide CleanUp Day will be May 6, from 9 a.m. to noon, for residents within city limits. Most items will be accepted free of charge, but some electronics and appliances will have a price associated. The city has more details on items, pricing and other info.

Red Cross calls for type O negative and AB blood donors Blood donations essential to patient care ST. PAUL, MN. — The American Red Cross is issuing a call for type O negative and AB blood donors to make an appointment to give after severe winter weather in some parts of the country caused about 250 Red Cross blood drives to cancel in March, resulting in more than 8,500 uncollected blood donations. Type O negative blood and type AB plasma are two of the most in-demand blood products by hospitals. Those who give can help patients locally or across the country as the Red Cross has the ability to move blood products where and when they are needed most. “All blood types are needed to meet the constant need of patients, and there is a significant need now for type O negative and AB donations to help some of the most vulnerable patients,” said Sue Thesenga, communications manager, North Central Red Cross Blood Services. “We ask that you schedule an appointment to roll up a sleeve to help save a life in the coming days.” Donations help patients like Brady Prosser. He was severely burned in October while mowing near burning leaves. He received regular – sometimes daily – blood and plasma transfusions during his hospitalization. Type O negative blood can be
transfused to patients with any blood type and is often needed in emergency situations when there isn’t time to determine a patient’s blood type. While less than 7% of the U.S. population has type O negative blood, hospitals depend on frequent O negative donations to ensure it’s always available for patients in need. Type O negative blood donors are an important part of the Red Cross trauma team. Type AB is the universal plasma type and can be transfused to patients of any blood type in an emergency. Plasma helps maintain blood pressure and supplies critical proteins for clotting and immunity. Plasma can be donated through a blood donation. How to help Eligible donors can learn more, find a donation opportunity and schedule an appointment by using the free Blood Donor App, visiting redcrossblood.org or calling 1 (800) RED CROSS (1-[800] 733-2767). A blood donor card or driver’s license or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age in most states (16 with parental consent where allowed by state law), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other
donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements. Blood donors can save time at their donation appointment by using RapidPass to complete their pre-donation reading and health history questionnaire online, on the day of their donation, prior to arriving at the blood drive. To get started and learn more, visit redcrossblood.org/RapidPass and follow the instructions on the site. Upcoming blood donation oppotunities • Harmony: April 11, 1-7 p.m., Community Center, 225 Third Ave. SW. • Rushford: April 13, 8 a.m 2 p.m., Rushford Peterson High School, 102 N. Mill St. About the American Red Cross The American Red Cross shelters, feeds and provides emotional support to victims of disasters; supplies about 40 percent of the nation’s blood; teaches skills that save lives; provides international humanitarian aid; and supports military members and their families. The Red Cross is a not-for-profit organization that depends on volunteers and the generosity of the American public to perform its mission.

On April 1, 2017, the Rochester Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, commonly referred to as the “DAR,” hosted their annual awards program. The awards program was held at History Center of Olmsted County, in Rochester, Minn. In attendance to receive an award was Fillmore County Sheriff Tom Kaase and Fillmore County Deputy Jessy Betts. The local DAR chapter made a donation of four ballistic shields to the Fillmore County Sheriff’s Office. Sheriff Kaase expressed his sincere gratitude for the generosity of the DAR organization while receiving this donation. The Sheriff also went on to explain how the addition of these ballistic shields to the Sheriff’s Office will help to enhance not only the safety of Fillmore County Law Enforcement Officers, but also the Citizens of Fillmore County. The above photo shows the four ballistic shields that were donated, along with, left to right, Deputy Jessy Betts, DAR members Bonnie Kottschade, Patty Arndt, and Janel Kaster; and Sheriff Tom Kaase.

shared values with many in this community that support and encourage individuals to be their best and provide acts of kindness to others. They recognized that these characteristics make meaningful differences in single moments and lifetimes. As a thank you to wonderful friends and to recognize talented young adults, this scholarship is given to a graduating senior in an effort to pay-it-forward to a community that has been so generous. Graduating seniors who are planning on pursuing a postsecondary education are eligible for the $2,000 scholarship. Nominations will be accepted from the public (e.g., teacher, coach, community member, school employee, and student) that has observed or experienced the positive influence that a graduating senior has had on others.
Scholarship recipients will receive $1,000 their freshman year and the second award of $1,000 for their junior year of study. The award will be given after the recipient shares an update on their post-graduation activities that demonstrate continued efforts to be a positive influence by providing acts of kindness, encouragement, and/or support to others.

Mayor Kurt Reicks sits on the NTC board. Broberg supports a move forward to another site. He asked the council to think bigger and also include a community center. Promote Preston as a place where people focus on outdoor activities. Fishing season will start soon, “a labor of love.” Broberg admitted that the number of visitors to the center has been declining. They need to develop something that people want to come back to. The board has also budgeted for two

student interns. The board is making grant requests from the Department of Interior. The center’s budget is approximately the same as last year. The budget includes $15,000 annually for the Riverside Center. Councilman David Collett remarked that he hears complaints about using taxpayer dollars for the center. Councilwoman Holly Zuck suggested they let people know what the NTC goals are. If the center is more visible, if people can see the direction they want to go, there will be a more positive response. Other business in brief • Jim Bakken, Public Works, presented two options to light the south entrance sign. There were two quotes for a solar system and another from MiEnergy for permanent electric service. In addition to the cost of $6,979.48 to install a permanent service,
it would cost $400 per year for power. The lowest of the two quotes for a solar system was from Morem Electric at a cost of $6,575. The Morem quote for a solar system was approved. • Approval was given to transfer $4,500 from the Development Fund to the Revolving Loan Fund, as recommended by the EDA. A revolving loan, conditional on adequate collateral, in the amount of $10,500 was approved for the Mathisons to aid with a purchase and remodel. Councilman Robert Maust voted no, saying there are a lot of unknowns, insisting the old building will need a lot of work. • An application for $6,000 from the Small Cities Development Fund (commercial) was approved. Maust voted no and Collett abstained. A total of $8,000 (residential) from Greater Minnesota Housing was
FILLMORE COUNTY JOURNAL
approved for rehabbing the roof. • EDA Director Cathy Enerson said it is difficult to purchase and rehab an old building without grant funds. The Mathisons have an existing business and the debt service ratio suggests the ability to repay is strong. • Approval was given to modify the Preston Housing Incentive. The new construction program will be continued, but existing purchases and housing improvement components will be eliminated. • City Administrator Joe Hoffman said the EFIS work on city hall will start this week. Roof work will begin in mid April. A quote in the amount of $26,590 has been provided by Smidt Construction for a 48 foot by 9 foot steel framed metal canopy. The quote includes $8,000 for footings. There is also a quote from Rochester Sign in the amount

of $3,589 to mount the mural. Another quote for dealing with asbestos was listed in the amount of $1,500. The quotes for the canopy, mounting of the mural, and asbestos were approved. Maust voted no. Other remaining work includes lighting, sidewalks, landscaping, and a sign. • Approval was given to display teal ribbons on the lamp posts throughout Preston to recognize April as Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Every two minutes someone in the United States is sexually assaulted and 44% of those victims are under the age of 18. • A special meeting will be held at 8 a.m. on April 7 to approve the hire of a tourism director.
Commonweal Theatre announces 2017 Fillmore/Houston County free Nights The Commonweal Theatre Company announces performance dates for its 2017 Free County Night Program. Theatre lovers living and/or working in Fillmore or Houston Counties are invited to attend—free of charge—Henrik Ibsen’s final play about one man’s search for humanity in When We Dead Awaken on Thursday, April 20; a triumph of the human spirit The Elephant Man on Thursday, May 25; a celebration of friendship with Steel Magnolias on Thursday, June 29; the romantic and mysterious Ghost-Writer on Thursday, Sept. 14; and a delightful spoof on an old classic The Trial of Ebenezer Scrooge on Thursday, Nov. 30. Following the tradition of previous seasons, the Commonweal is renewing its commitment to local charities through a “pay it forward” approach. As a nonprofit, the Commonweal relies on generous donations from audiences and corporations to sustain programming; in turn, the theatre extends that generosity to the community five nights a year with the offer of free tickets. The intention is to remove any cost barrier for Commonweal’s closest neighbors to attend their local professional theatre. The 2017 Season will again encourage patrons to contribute items to a social or service organization chosen based on specific themes of season productions. The opportunity to donate will be available for the entire run of each production, but primarily focuses on those patrons attending the complimentary performances. Previous charitable contributions have been very successful with the most popular being the more than 75 new art supplies collected during the run of A Christmas Carol in 2016, which were donated to the Mayo Clinic’s Eugenio Litta Children’s Hospital. For the Commonweal’s first productions of the season, When We Dead Awaken and The Ele-
phant Man, the partner charity is Paws & Claws Humane Society which is committed to sheltering, protecting and seeking adoptive homes for abandoned or lost companion animals. A list of items that will be accepted is available by visiting www.pawsandclaws.org. During the performance period of Steel Magnolias, the donor charity will be the Semcac Fillmore County Food Shelf. For Ghost-Writer, the theatre will partner with Rochester’s House of Compassion, an organization that provides housing for Mayo Clinic patients and their caregivers. Finally, the ever popular “Art for Kids” returns during the run of The Trial of Ebenezer Scrooge. For a complete list of acceptable donation items, call the theatre at (800) 657-7025. All performances begin at 7:30 p.m. and while admission is free of charge to residents and employees of Fillmore and
Houston Counties, seating is limited and reservations are strongly recommended at least two weeks in advance. There is a limit of four tickets per household. Free County Nights at the Commonweal Theatre are made possible with support from the Houston Dental Clinic, Thrivent Financial for Lutherans in Lanesboro and Winona, POET Biorefining, Rushford Community Foundation and Nethercut Schieber Law Office. Funding for the Commonweal Theatre’s programming is provided in part by a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, through an appropriation by the Minnesota State Legislature, a grant from the McKnight Foundation and other private funders. For more information about the 2017 season, visit www.CommonwealTheatre.org. To check availability and to reserve tickets, contact the box office at (800) 657-7025.

The
Working
Mom
By Tammy Danielson Husband-isms For any of you who know me and know my husband, you will also know that he never reads my column. So, I thought it was safe to write another column that shares the joys of marriage—or, as some of us say, “Are you kidding me?” My other half often displays what I call “husband-isms.” In my world, they are behaviors or actions that only my husband has (that I know of ) and they can be cute or annoying depending on the day. Today is not the cute day. When I go the grocery store after work and get home by 7:30-8 p.m. with a load fit for a family of 10 instead of our three, how come my husband lets me know that my son can help me carry in the groceries? I busted him on that one today and said that phrase he
says immediately keeps me in the picture of carrying in bags and takes him out—yes, I have noticed it for the past 10 years but finally got tired one night and said something. After denying this famous husband-ism a few times, he started to give me a smirk…oh man, why does he have to be cute when I am mad? Husband-ism #2 is when he falls asleep before I do, on top of the covers mind you, and I am stuck trying to get at least a quarter of the comforter for the rest of the night. Since this husband-ism has been going on so long, I succumbed to having an additional blanket and sleeping on top of the covers. But, by gosh if my pillow is missing the light is coming on and trouble is brewing.
Husband-ism #3 has become more evident over the past years. It’s the “I look fine” comment as we are heading to the store where I run into people from work who have never met him. Seriously, he threw on his dirty garage baseball cap, his snowmobiling Vikings sweatshirt from 20 years ago with caulk all over it, and jeans that are two sizes too big. He is a handsome guy, but that look is just not cutting it for him. Yes, it’s about what is on the inside…blah, blah, blah…no, it’s not. Ha! He has decent clothes that are not at the “church clothes” level that he can wear to go shopping. What are church clothes in his book you might ask? Husband-ism #4 is church clothes = any shirt with a button and pants without a loop for a construction tool. I will wind this up with saying he is a great guy who has managed to stay in my good graces for the past 20 years and, thankfully, he has put up with me for just as long. However, be ready---you just may hear some serious yelling one day when I throw away the caulk sweatshirt!

Extension offers one-to-one services for financially distressed farmers standing their financial situation and exploring options to keep their farms functioning as a viable enterprise.� To set up a confidential appointment with an Extension farm financial analyst, farmers can call the Farm Information Line at 1 (800) 232-9077. The Extension program is expected to run for two years and will be modeled after similar services offered
University of Minnesota Extension will begin offering one-to-one financial counseling to farmers in serious financial stress. “We know that due to a variety of factors, including on-going low prices, some farmers find themselves facing difficult circumstances,� said Bev Durgan, Extension dean. “With our new program, Extension offers distressed farmers help in under-
in states including Kansas and Iowa. It will augment services currently available in Minnesota, including the Farmer-Lender Mediation program, which is overseen by Extension, and the state Department of Agriculture’s Minnesota Farm Advocates assistance. Financial analysts include retired agricultural business professionals from Extension and other organiza-
tions. The program is set up to provide analysts at geographically diverse locations in Minnesota. They’ve undergone training to update their capabilities and will work closely with current Extension colleagues. “Compared to the 1980s, the magnitude of the financial stress on Minnesota farms is not as widespread. That’s good news, but it may also keep the many farmers in dif-
ficult circumstances from seeking the kind of help that they need,� said Extension agricultural economist Kevin Klair, who leads Extension’s Agricultural Business Management program. “That’s why we’re working with a variety of agriculture interests in Minnesota, including the banking industry, to reach out and let farmers know we can help them explore their options.�

Lanesboro switches to new garbage and recycling service By Hannah Wingert Lanesboro’s contract with Harter’s Quick Clean Up will be ending soon, and so the city recently advertised for bids. Three bids were received from Harter’s, Waste Management, and Advanced Disposal. The council reviewed the bids at their regular April 3 meeting and approved a motion to switch to Advanced Disposal once the contract with Harter’s is finished. With Advanced Disposal, Lanesboro residents will be able to choose between three sizes
of landfill totes with different pricing for each and two sizes of recycling totes with the same cost for each one. Service for the city dumpsters will be free under the new contract. The council asked the Advanced Disposal representative what would happen with the trash service of those who leave for the winter and were informed that customers who are going to be gone for extended periods of at least a month can shut off their service at no charge and resume it when they return. Mayor Johnson declared 5th

grader Isaac Snyder as Mayor for the Day. Isaac was one of three winning entries in the Mayor for the Day essay contest held by the League of Minnesota Cities. The Lanesboro Fire Department recommended Blaine Harmon to fill their vacancy. The council approved the request to add Harmon to the crew. Council member Jason Resseman gave the Heritage Preservation Commission’s report to the council. The HPC would like to offer placards for sale to owners of historical buildings, either commercial or residential, in Lanesboro. The placards would be similar to the national registry ones. The HPC is currently hammering out details with the Lanesboro Historical Museum to possibly come up with a deal such as a free year-long membership to the museum with the purchase of a placard. “Our goal is to start documenting some of these properties to have a better database,” Resseman said. Mayor Johnson read a proclamation declaring April 23-29 to be National Volunteer Week. A street closure request for Coffee Street East from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on May 13 and September 23 for Girls’ Day Out was approved. Council member Tom Smith mentioned that he’s received comments asking the council to include a public forum in the regular city council meetings. “I’ve been approached about that too,” added council member Marge Drake. Mayor Autumn Johnson pointed out that a public forum is already available at the monthly community meetings which are held on the first Thursday of each month at 9 a.m. The council is also thinking of adding some evening meetings to allow those who work during the day to attend. The council revisited the topic of raising the utility rates as recommended by the Public Utilities Commission. A motion to leave the rates the way they are currently was made by Smith, but failed. The 7% increase was approved with a 3 to 2 vote to the chagrin of some of the Lanesboro residents attending the meeting. The next Lanesboro City Council meeting will be held on May 1 at 5:30 p.m.

MiEnergy Cooperative wins national award CRESCO, IA/RUSHFORD, MN, March 23, 2017— MiEnergy Cooperative was one of 11 electric cooperatives awarded the Cooperative Purpose Award by the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA). The award is given for outstanding contributions to improving the quality of life and purpose of the cooperatives in their communities. In 2013, Southern Minnesota Energy Cooperative (SMEC) was formed by 12 electric distribution cooperatives to be the single point of contact for the purchase of Alliant Energy’s Minnesota
electric service territory. SMEC engaged their local communities and business leaders through a grassroots campaign to educate them on the cooperative advantage. In 2015, the acquisition was finalized and SMEC welcomed more than 43,000 new members into the cooperative community. “The 12 cooperatives of SMEC perfectly exemplify the sixth cooperative principle, cooperation among cooperatives,” said Mel Coleman, NRECA president. “I applaud SMEC for their perseverance, leadership and concern for community.”
The award was presented at NRECA’s 75th Annual Meeting in San Diego on March 1 with more than 5,500 representatives from electric co-ops across the nation in attendance. MiEnergy Cooperative is a member-owned electric distribution cooperative and is the result of a merger between Hawkeye REC, of Cresco, Iowa and Tri-County Electric Cooperative, of Rushford, Minn. in 2017. It maintains 5,700 miles of power lines covering most of Fillmore, Houston and Winona counties in Minnesota and Chickasaw, Howard and
Winneshiek counties in Iowa. The cooperative also serves small pockets bordering those counties. It provides electricity to more than 18,600 members in northeastern Iowa and southeastern Minnesota. MiEnergy is a Touchstone Energy Cooperative. About Southern Minnesota Energy Cooperative Southern Minnesota Energy Cooperative (SMEC) was formed by 12 electric distribution cooperatives as a single point of contact for the proposed purchase of electric service territory in southern Minnesota from Alliant Energy. The 12 SMEC member cooperatives are BENCO Electric Cooperative, Brown County Rural Electrical Association, Federated Rural Elec-
tric, Freeborn-Mower Cooperative Services, MiEnergy Cooperative (formerly Tri-County Electric Cooperative), Minnesota Valley Electric Cooperative, Nobles Cooperative Electric, People’s Energy Cooperative, Redwood Electric Cooperative, Sioux Valley Energy, South Central Electric and Steele-Waseca Cooperative Electric. About National Rural Electric Cooperative Association The National Rural Electric Cooperative Association is the national service organization that represents the nation’s more than 900 not-for-profit, consumerowned electric cooperatives, which provide service to 42 million people in 47 states.
Lanesboro area residents complete Blandin Community Leadership Program retreat GRAND RAPIDS, MN, March 24, 2017 — Twentyfour residents of the Lanesboro area returned March 17 from a five-day leadership retreat, the first segment of an intense eight-day training provided by the Blandin Community Leadership Program (BCLP). The team also will participate in three follow-up workshops. A program of the Grand Rapids-based Blandin Foundation, BCLP has provided experiential leadership training for more than 7,000 community leaders from nearly 500 rural Minnesota communities since it began in
1985. This is the first time the community has participated in the BCLP leadership program. Local residents participating in this training were: Maureen Anderson, Chase Bakke, Colin Bakke, David Bakke, Lori Bakke, Jeff Boland, Michael Brown, Stephanie Davidson, Elaine Edwards, Mark Edwards, Gretchen Engstrom, Therese Graner, Marti Gray, David Hennessey, Autumn Johnson, Cheryl Krage, Robin Krom, Caleb Lauritsen-Norby, Kara Maloney, Edward Taylor, Sandy Webb, Adam Wiltgen, Louise Wolfgramm and Richard Wolf-
gramm. The goal of the Blandin Community Leadership Program is to develop and train a broad base of local leaders to build healthy communities. Topics covered during the retreat included: identifying and describing community issues and opportunities through the lens of the nine dimensions of a healthy community, effective interpersonal communication, building social capital, appreciating personality differences, managing interpersonal conflict, understanding community power, mobilizing community resources, and goal
setting. “A healthy community depends on leadership engagement of community members,” said Valerie Shangreaux, director of Blandin leadership programs. “The leadership demonstrated by these participants reflects their commitment to their community, as well as to the region and to rural Minnesota.” BCLP training programs are funded entirely by the Blandin Foundation, whose mission is to strengthen rural Minnesota communities, especially the Grand Rapids area.

warnings that save lives – a proven fact we’ve seen many times in our region. Todd Shea, Warning Coordination Meteorologist with the weather service in La Crosse, Wis., organizes the training each year and encourages large groups and active volunteers. “Accurate and timely reports of severe weather, by trained individuals, not only helps our office, but can save lives in the local community. We always need more eyes to the sky.” Fillmore County, as well as other areas of southeast Minnesota, always needs more “ground-truth” weather reports to pass along to the National Weather Service. Again, training is Wednesday, April 19 in Rushford, Minnesota starting at 6:30 p.m. Preregistration is not needed. You can view the training schedule at: www.weather.gov/lacrosse/skywarn_ schedule.

County discusses courthouse security By Karen Reisner Sheriff Tom Kaase asked the board to support a grant application to help pay for courthouse security at the board’s April 3 meeting. Commissioner Marc Prestby was absent. It is written in the grant application for state funds that the “Fillmore County Courthouse complex has very limited security.” The grant if awarded could help fund for the first year a dedicated courthouse complex deputy who is trained in this specialized area. The grant which is a 50/50 match could help pay for technical security equipment to be installed in the courthouse including cameras/ monitors, key card access points, and panic alarms. County and courthouse staff could also receive training in security measures. The amount requested in the grant application which had already been submitted was $71,039 or half of a total project cost of $142,078. Kaase related that staff had toured facilities in surrounding counties to collect information to develop the best practices, policies, and proce-
dures. There has been work toward developing a plan for courthouse security since early 2015. A security assessment was completed in August of 2015 by a U.S. Marshal of both the courthouse and the county office building, during which security deficiencies were identified. The Criminal Justice Committee had discussed and proposed what they believe is needed in preparation of submitting the grant application. Commissioner Duane Bakke maintained the current courthouse, since the remodel, is very secure compared to what it was prior to that. He insisted they have done a lot already, but also agreed they should do more. He noted if the grant is awarded, the match to help pay for a deputy is only for the first year of salary, a salary that will be an ongoing cost for the county. Commissioner Mitch Lentz said they have been talking about improving security for two years and have done nothing. It is time to figure out the need and to
develop a plan. The legislature approved $1 million to be available for courthouse security for the whole state. Kaase expects the requests to exceed the amount of funding available. Any grant funding likely will only be for the courthouse, not for the county office building. Chairman Randy Dahl said he was not against having a courthouse security officer if that officer can do other functions during down times. Kaase insisted the officer would have other assigned duties during non-court time. Kaase stated, “The grant has been submitted as it reads and I’m looking today for your support of the grant application.” Bakke requested that a grant application come before the board before the deadline for submission which in this case was March 31. Commissioner Gary Peterson added there still are things to do, like an endorsement of the whole project. Kaase said at this point they have gathered information to help decide how best to enhance courthouse security, “It is a challenge.” He acknowledged

the grant would only help cover the cost of things for the first year, which will have to be maintained thereafter. Approval was given for a letter of support for the Safe and Secure Courthouse Initiative Grant application. Dahl said there is a definite need and in the end we prioritize and decide what we are going to spend the taxpayers money on. Letters of support have also been submitted by District Court Judge Matt Opat and the Third District Public Defenders Office. Other business in brief • The retirement request from Chief Deputy Tony Webber was approved with “much thanks” for his 27 years of service effective June 30. • Kaase showed the commissioners one of the ballistic shields that had been donated by the Daughters of the American Revolution. Four ballistic shields were donated, valued at about $750 for each shield. • Approval was given to advertise for 2017 sealcoat projects on CSAHs 12,14,18,23, and 40. County Engineer Ron Gregg explained these projects will be funded by the Local Option Sales Tax. Sealcoating preserves roads a lot longer. The roads should be sealcoated again after five to seven years. • Approval was given to advertise for a bridge replacement on County Road 109 and two bridge replacements on County Road 117. This work will be paid for with the Local Option Sales Tax. Gregg explained that the bridge
Page 23
on 109 will be replaced with precast rectangular beam spans which will cost half as much as a different structure. The two bridges on County Road 117 will be replaced with used culverts from a Rochester project, significantly lowering the cost of the bridges. • During “Citizens Input,” Bonita Underbakke of Holt Township asked the board to reconsider the option of a Wheelage Tax to raise additional funds to help finance needed infrastructure. She said she is very willing to pay a bit extra on her vehicle license tabs to prevent car repair due to bad roads. • The lower quote from Canton Heating and Cooling LLC in the amount of $3,383 was approved to repair/replace a gas line at the Canton Highway Shop. • Approval was given to hire Kurt Njos as an intermittent social worker for Child Protection to cover for an employee on medical leave. He is currently an intern with Social Services and will work part-time until the internship is completed and will work full-time after that. His wage will be paid for with Child Protection grant funding. • Approval was given for a Child Protection on-call procedure as required by state guidelines. There was considerable discussion about the possibility of paying a stipend of $200 per week for the Child Protection social worker on-call who has a specific skill set. It was decided have the committee look at the possibility of an on-call stipend before bringing it back to the board.
