Holst is NCAA National Champion Pam’s Off Sale Liquor opens in Harmony

By R ich Wicks rich@fillmorecountyjournal.com

Paul, Pam, and Jordan Brand know a thing or two about running a store in small town Minnesota. They’ve been operating Pam’s Corner Convenience in Rushford since 2005, and opened an off-sale liquor store there in 2012. They have now brought their expertise to their new store, Pam’s Off Sale Liquor, in downtown Harmony.

Regarding their location, Paul Brand said, “It was called the Quarter/quarter, it was a restau-

rant/wine bar, but that’s been out of business for four to five years. And way back, it used to be the fire department.” He continued, “About eight months ago, we started looking into it with the city, which was great to deal with, but it just takes time.”

Pam said they then looked for a good location, and when they found the Quarter/quarter building, “Taking a look at it, it didn’t look like we needed to do much to it,… It’s big, we just needed to build a cooler, build a checkout counter, and basically See PAM’S OFF SALE Page 13 

Holst is the first field-event national champion in 10 years for the University of St. Thomas, as he won the hammer throw at the NCAA Outdoor Championships.

When he first started throwing the hammer as a freshman in 2016 Holst threw the hammer 120-10 for a season best, which ranked just 495th in Division III. In 2017, he threw 177-10 to reach 33rd best on the Division III chart as a sophomore. This spring his pre-nationals best was 2049, which was third best on the season charts.

On Saturday, May 26, 2018, Lanesboro native Eric Holst made a mark for himself as he became the field-event national champion in the NCAA Championships in LaCrosse, Wis., with an incredible 211-4 hammer throw.

“I started throwing in seventh grade, but I didn’t get to start throwing the hammer until my freshman year of college,” states Holst, which makes his accomplishment even more impressive.

Holst attends the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul,

Minn., and is proud to be part of the St. Thomas “Tommies” and will be entering his fourth and final year of eligibility for St. Thomas this year. He will be a senior mechanical engineering student this coming year and expects to graduate in May 2019.

He is currently interning with Delkor Systems in Arden Hills, Minn., where they manufacture robotic machines which fold, load, and close cardboard boxes for the food industry. “I am a mechanical design intern so I assist the other engineers in designing parts for our machines,” explains Holst.

The video production was contracted by the National Cembarb@fillmorecountyjournal.com etery Administration (NCA) “It will be a source of pride for under the Department of Veterthe Preston area,” states Robert ans Affairs.

broke a 25-year-old St. Thomas school record with a toss of 204-9.

His hammer best would rank in the top 40 of all throws at all three NCAA levels this spring, and would rank fifth in the Big Ten Conference. Holst’s career best heave of 211-4 is ranked ninth best throw in Division III history.

Although Holst has never won an MIAC title (he is a two-time runner-up) he is now a NCAA

Champion. Holst was the only MIAC National Champion this school year from the sports of track and field, swim-dive, golf, tennis or cross country.

“I made nationals for the first time during the indoor season this year in the weight throw, where I competed poorly,” states Holst. “Then during outdoor I was off to a very slow start due to transitioning from a 3-turn to a 4-turn technique. I was on the bubble of even qualifying for nationals, but then I started to find my rhythm with about four weeks left in the

season and I started throwing big PRs every week and it never stopped,” he says.

Holst is the first individual Tommie male athlete to win a NCAA championship in six years. He joins a small group of 12 MIAC men with a top-10 Division III all-time ranking in outdoor track and field.

These statistics listed on Holst do not come easy - it takes hard work and dedication to achieve the goals that Holst has attained thus far.

“Competitions are extremely intense,” says Holst. “Throwing is an aggressive event and you need to be able to focus on each throw without any distractions. You need to stay extremely calm up until the throw in order to not overthink your technique and end up doing something wrong, but as soon as you step into the circle, you need to become aggressive and ready to put everything you have into the throw, which can be a difficult switch for some people to flip,” he explains.

The event is run by splitting up all the competitors into multiple flights, usually decided by seed distances. Each competitor get three throws in their flight, and once all flights are done, the top nine throwers make the final where they get another three throws to try and better their mark.

Practice begins the first week of November and competitions take place basically every week-

end from January 1 to the end of May each year, with some weeks having a midweek competition as well.

Holst is thankful for those who are always there for him and come to the competitions.

“My family has been incredibly supportive, they come to every meet and cheer me and my teammates on. They also bring food for us, which is always very

popular amongst the team,” he says.

“My future plans are to get a job in my field after I’m done competing and immediately begin working,” states Holst.

It seems that working hard and being dedicated is in this young man’s genes and he will undoubtedly attain many additional goals he sets for himself in life.

C ommentary Response to Herb Panko commentary Jeff Coleman Rushford, MN I found Herb Panko’s article in the July 16 issue to be a headscratcher for many reasons. Panko states that we live “in the midst of two alarming trends.” He names these as uncivilized discourse in politics, Jeff Coleman taken to an extreme in Trump, and second, that the Christian Right supports Trump. His article is half ripping Trump and half ripping the Christian Right, with a coda that is something like “Ha! Less people are going to church so your backward mindset is dying off.”

Quick disclaimers to avoid being labeled as a Trump-supporter and having my point of view immediately rejected by some: I did not vote for Trump (or Clinton). I am not a fundamentalist Christian; in fact, I’m a Bible college drop-out. But I have been on both extreme sides of this hostility between secular liberals and religious conservatives, and quite frankly, I am fed up with both.

Here is something to remember: members of the religious right are often single-issue voters. The issue they often most care about is abortion. You can have whatever opinion you want about abortion, but do not be surprised when a pro-life voter selects a candidate for President who promised to appoint conservative justices to the Supreme Court (coincidentally, Trump has followed through on this promise). This is not a “new trend.”

And sorry, Herb, but you don’t get to call what your opponents’ Editorial Cartoon

view as important issues “selfish agendas.”

I also wonder what Mr. Panko means when he writes things like the Christian right has “enthusiastic acceptance of this [P]resident,” and “the shocking extent the religious right has gone to in excusing [immoral and crude] behaviors.” Are those accusations based off the fact that they voted for him? Or some televangelist praising Trump? Or a few religious neighbors keeping Trump yard signs up? I think it is dangerous to paint with such a wide brush. Tell me, Mr. Panko, is this name-calling (“religious lap dogs,” for example), condescending tone, and obvious disdain for these people helping to bridge the divide in American politics or making the chasm more wide?

How did you miss your call-out of hypocrisy as also applying to yourself?

I just will not accept the premise that every person who voted for Trump is an idiot or evil (or both). This is the opinion that many liberals have and it is flatout wrong and counter-productive. It is as much to blame for the polarization in American politics as Trump’s ridiculous antics.

A vote is not a comprehensive agreement of everything a candidate says, believes, represents, and has acted out. Most Americans only view the Presidential race as between two candidates, and I wager many of them pick the one they dislike less.

Herb, we get it: you HATE Trump. I can see why a person would. But I can also see why people picked him over Hillary Clinton. People on the left often think of themselves as openminded, but I’m seeing a serious lack of understanding in the Trump era.

Food and flowers

By Eric Leitzen Hokah, MN It’s been a wild year for my garden, that’s for sure. After installing a new garden box, the plants have taken off no doubt juiced by the brand new benefits of fresh soil and fertilizer.

Sadly, the crazy amount Eric Leitzen of growth isn’t always good for everyone, as some of our lettuce has gotten so prosperous that it’s too big and essentially useless. The leaves are so bitter the rabbits won’t even come near, and they’re starting to crowd out other plants in the box, making it harder for the sunlight and nutrients to trickle down. My only hope has been cutting the plants down to size and breaking them up hoping then that they can contribute a little more than bitterness despite exponential growth.

In other parts of the garden, times are much more rough. My original plot, tilled up back in 2015, is having a rough run of it due to weeds and grasses that are invading their space, looking to take every little bit of usable land for themselves. These weeds don’t really contribute anything to the garden at large, they’re just sort of a middle player between the giant lettuce and the struggling cabbages, who are trying their hardest but keep finding that they are doing more and getting less that the ones who happened to have the luck of being planted in the new box.

And then there’s the middle box, which has fallen into such disrepair it’s nearly fallen apart.

What can I say? Times have been tough and I haven’t been able to invest in new wood or fasteners

to keep up those middle boxes like I’d like to. I pull the weeds and I do my best, but it’s hard work and it’s really going to take a lot of cooperation. What’s even worse is that some of those monsters over in the new box have even started letting some of those nasty weeds into their box, how crazy is that? Don’t they realize that those weeds, if given the chance, would take everything for themselves no matter what box they are in?

And that’s not even the most difficult part. We put up a fence to try to keep out, shall we say, brown invaders with little cotton-tails. The only problem with this, I found out after the fact, is that the fence doesn’t have a door. That means, to take care of some of the grass and weeds, I need to somehow get a lawn mower inside. Now my old gas mower, Hillary, can do the job, but it’s hardly worth the effort.

I have to overcome everything about the fence, and even then she’s not the best at maneuvering when things get rough. So, amazingly, I went back into the garage and I got out my old people-powered, eco-friendly rotary mower, Bernie. Sure, it can’t take care of everything with all of that fence frustration, but he does a pretty good job all things considered. At least this way, I can try to stop the grass and weeds from making it harder for those in the lower garden, as Bernie can plow right through with no walls or gates around the tilled earth.

I’m sure that, after they get

cut down to size, the lettuces can contribute just as much, if not more, than the cabbages. It’s not that I hate the lettuce, far from it. I love a salad as much as the next person, but there comes a point where you have to look at the out-of-control growth and ask those plants “just how much more do you really need?”

Meanwhile, the kale next door is investing in solid, but less crazy growth, and it’s doing just fine.

It’ll be contributing to soups and stews long after the first downturn in temperature sends the lettuce packing. And there’s a chard plant in that box, too, growing way too big to be of any use only to show off to the directly planted ones who are struggling in the lower garden, I suppose. The silly thing about the chard and the lettuce, though, is that they can’t seem to realize that they actually don’t accomplish much, and if they get any bigger they’ll just get cut down and cast aside.

Meanwhile, the kale’s going to be over in its corner, minding its own business, and even showing off some awesome flowers.

C ommentary Jobs and social justice: An undeniable connection

By Jeff Erding Wykoff, MN Last quarter, the U.S. economy grew at 4.1%. Many of the “experts” insisted 4% growth could never be achieved again.

• CNN on 10/11/16; “ Trump promises 4% growth.

Economists Jeff Erding say no way.”

• Wall Street Journal 1/26/17; “Donald Trump’s 4% growth target is easier said than done.”

• L A Times 5/19/17; “ If Trump thinks he can get more than 3% economic growth, he’s dreaming!”

Shortly before the 2016 election, President Obama admonished Mr. Trump to stop predicting a booming economy if he were elected, stating, “He claims he is gonna bring jobs back from overseas. How’s he gonna do that? Does he have some kind of magic wand that will cause companies to move their operations back to America?” He also stated, “Donald Trump claims he can achieve 4% growth, which is just not true. Two-and-a-half percent growth is now the maximum, and people have to realize the norm is more like 1%.”

Circumstances prove the naysayers wrong. Mr. Trump’s economic policies are working, not just moderately, but astoundingly well. His opponents insult our intelligence by insisting America’s economic success is a result of the consistent growth from Obama era policies. No fair minded observer could possibly believe that after watching eight years of a “slow go, no go” economy during the job killing, anti-business Obama era.

The current situation should be of particular delight to the leader of the Social Justice movement, Pope Francis, who stated this in July of 2014 in an address to a group of young people: “We cannot resign ourselves to losing a generation of young people who do not have the dignity of work… A generation without work is a future defeat for the country and for humanity… We must fight against this, and help each other to find a solution, through help and solidarity…”

Consider the current situation.

• Unemployment is now at near record lows. Black and

Hispanic unemployment has NEVER been lower.

• More jobs are available in America then people to fill them.

• Economic optimism among job creators and investors is the highest since 2004.

In the frustration that stems from their own failed policies, “social justice warriors” who have taken over the Democrat party insist that the only solution is big government programs, high taxes to fund them, and more and more government control of our lives.

Not true.

How many of us can look objectively at the performance of big government and point to successful systems that perform efficiently and fairly? How many of us would give Congress a favorable rating in a performance review?

Socialism always fails. Always has, always will.

But how about the Democratic leadership in America who tell us that all the economic progress only benefits the rich? That the tax cuts are mere “crumbs” and just help line the pockets of the already wealthy?

Nothing could be further from the truth. Statistics and my own experience tell me that free markets and the free enterprise system are the best friend of the working person.

As a lifelong member of the Carpenters Union, I served several years as a trustee, as a shop steward, manned picket lines, and twice sat on the negotiating team at contract time. What I learned from these experiences is that achieving a favorable contract is 100% dependent on a favorable work situation. Lots of work around, successful contract. Tight construction market, lucky to avoid a cut.

In closing, America has a clear cut choice in November. We can support freedom, limited government, and the free market system that is improving American lives at almost every social-economic level. Or we can choose to turn away from freedom, and return to high taxes, low employment, regulatory strangulation by bureaucrats, and socialist programs that penalize hard work and reward indolence. The choice is ours.

Please choose wisely. God Bless until next time!

One Moment, Please...

Let the free market decide

By Jason Sethre Publisher Fillmore County Journal jason@fillmorecountyjournal.com I keep hearing chatter about raising the minimum wage from $9.65 per hour to $15.00 per hour. That’s greater than a 55% increase!

Now, I do believe an Jason Sethre increase in minimum wage is warranted, but maybe keeping pace with the rate of inflation makes a little more sense. Maybe a 2.5% to 4% increase in the minimum wage each year would be more sensible.

I remember more than 25 years ago when I was making $3.25 per hour and gas cost between 81 cents and 97 cents per gallon. I’m pretty sure we will never see those prices at the pump ever again. And, I’m not upset about the fact that gas prices are what they are.

It’s all relative. As everyone makes more money, the cost of goods will increase relative to the increase in wages. Sure, there are other variables involved in that equation, but it’s to be expected. Payroll is usually the largest expense of any company, so increased wages have a tremendous impact on consumer costs.

Artificial inflation If we increase wages by 55%, then we had better be prepared to accept all of the increased expenses that come along with those wages.

The person who drives the semi-truck hauling the fuel to the gas stations will need to make 55% more in wages, and the person working behind the counter will need to make 55% more in wages. Fuel, food, car maintenance, utilities, insurance, health care — everything will cost more because employers will need to pass those costs on to the consumer.

So, if someone has their wage increase from $9.65 per hour to $15.00 per hour, then a person currently making $15.00 per hour should be making 55% more — which is $23.25 per hour.

As everyone clicks their heals when they see larger paychecks deposited in their bank accounts, they need to keep in mind that everything they spend money on will increase in conjunction with their compensation.

The free market We are at a pivotal point with the symbiotic relationship between our employment market and our economy. At this time, we have a perfect repre-

sentation of how a free market dictates wages beyond any government requirements.

Many employers are struggling to hire and keep good people. There’s nobody sitting on the bench waiting for a job.

Unemployment was at 2.3% in Fillmore County, Minn., as of May 2018. That’s a good sign for the economy, but bad news for employers. The most employable people are already working for somebody else, and employers have to offer prospects a lot more than what they are currently receiving in wages or benefits in order to steal them away from another employer. And, the reality is that it will be this way for another 10 to 15 years as the baby boomers settle into their new role as the heir apparent to controlling more than 75% of the assets of the nation.

With more jobs than there are people to fill them, wages will increase on their own. Employers will need to increase wages of existing staff so they don’t

lose them, and they will have to offer higher pay to new hires compared to any other time in the history of their business. It’s a reality small businesses are facing everywhere, and especially here. I know, because I hear it all the time as I visit with our business community.

What about our seniors?

We have 71 million baby boomers retiring at a record pace over the next 10 to 15 years, and many of them will be living on a fixed income. Well, shouldn’t they receive a 55% increase in compensation in their social security payments to compensate for the inflation that will impact any products and services they need to purchase? If we don’t consider the impact on our seniors, they will suffer.

Government decisions One thing that continuously makes me cringe with our government is the inability to forecast the consequences of decisions. Are you prepared to contend with the price inflation in products and services that will inevitably occur as a result of a 55% increase in minimum wage? Unfortunately, we cannot have our cake and eat it too.

C ommentary SMIF stakeholders on the bus: Regional bus tour visits Olmsted, Steele and Dodge counties

By Tim Penny President/CEO Southern Minnesota Initiative Foundation An event I look forward to each year is Southern Minnesota Initiative Foundation’s ( S M I F ) Annual Bus Tour. SMIF staff, board and colleagues spent the day visiting partners Tim Penny who are making a difference in their community. We use this time to hear from stakeholders and listen to community leaders. This is the fourth year of our bus tour and we traveled to the center of our 20-county region – Olmsted, Dodge and Steele Counties.

We listened to concerns and success stories from various guests including city and coun-

ty staff, economic developers, community foundation members, loan clients and other local leaders. In every community we visited the concerns shared were: housing, workforce and child care. Despite these pressing challenges, I was impressed to hear many people acknowledge that we now live in a “regional economy.” It is clear that our partners are embracing that concept and leveraging resources and collaborations in the region in order to grow.

We started the tour by spending an evening at Squash Blossom Farm in Oronoco. This small historic farm is a SMIF loan client, and their motto is “Local Food, Local Art, and Local Music.” While we enjoyed their wood-fired pizza, we listened to partners talk about their work. We heard from one of our Affiliate Funds, the Byron Community Foundation, highlight community

projects that enhance the town including a bike path project, early childhood grants and a veteran’s memorial. The Community and Economic Development Associates representative from Stewartville talked about their efforts to cultivate an environment supportive of entrepreneurs. We heard from one of our coaches about our Rural Entrepreneurial Venture (REV) program and how entrepreneur networks in southern Minnesota can be a pillar of economic development in rural America.

In Rochester we heard from a representative of Destination Medical Center which is positioned to be the largest publicprivate economic development initiative in the state, with 30,000 new jobs anticipated.

The downtown area is experiencing vibrancy through a variety of engaging events organized by the Rochester Downtown Alliance. According to surveys from this organization, the majority of people in Rochester are optimistic about the city’s future.

In Hayfield, we had an indepth conversation with community leaders who are focusing on improvements to residential areas, looking at enhancing trail systems and hoping to open a new child care center. One thing that seems to be echoed by community leaders across the region is that small town assets are changing – one doesn’t necessarily need to look for a bustling downtown to know if a community is thriving. Good schools, infrastructure and broadband access can attract new residents and different types of businesses.

I am always impressed by the innovative spirit of our region.

In Blooming Prairie we visited loan client, BioPlastic Solutions.

They develop custom alterna-

tives to PVC and have made a big push to create products that are biodegradable. They have experienced major growth over the past seven years and are still growing. In West Concord we visited another loan client, Clean Plus, which has developed “Drip Trap Granules,” a corn-based absorbent designed to clean up oil spills, in addition to many other ground-breaking products.

We heard from community leaders in Steele County where people are excited about the upcoming development in downtown Owatonna, and the growth in new apartment complexes. One of the ways they are addressing the workforce challenge is by working directly with high school students to support them in finding work in Steele County. Medford, one of our newest Community Growth Initiatives, talked about their experience identifying their assets and working towards common goals.

We ended the day by enjoying ice cream at the Chocolate Shoppe in Mantorville,

and touring the historic Opera House which continues to host traditional melodramas and other plays throughout the year.

two locations,â&#x20AC;? shared Gross.

A private film crew from New York, supported by additional crew members from the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, arrived on Saturday, July 14, 2018, and spent about three hours doing location scouting on the grounds of the veterans cemetery.

On Monday, July 16, the production crew arrived to begin

filming at approximately 8 a.m. and filmed until about 6 p.m.

They returned on Tuesday morning and wrapped up their production at the cemetery grounds approximately 6 p.m., although they did spent time filming additional footage around Preston. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a fairly large team that was here for the operation,â&#x20AC;? says Gross. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There were two individuals from National Cemeteries, six on the actual film crew and then an additional

four crew members that came in from the St. Paul area that worked with them doing sound, etc.,â&#x20AC;? explains Gross.

As part of the production, the crew wanted to film a memorial service and out of respect it was decided that a simulated service would be performed instead of filming an actual service. Having a simulated service would also make it easier for the film crew to start and stop production to get the shots they wanted.

Gross reached out to the Preston/Harmony Memorial Rifle Squad and the Army Honors Team, who agreed to participate in the simulated service as well as Pastor Stuart Weist of the First Baptist Church in Preston.

A few people were invited to stand in as family members during the simulated ceremony including Kim Holty from rural Houston County, who has done some local community theatre, to fill the role of next of kin along with her two daughters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of those naturally empathetic people,â&#x20AC;? explains Gross, and she became quite emotional during the simulated service.

Along with the footage of the veterans cemetery the film crew also did several interview shoots at various areas on the grounds.

David Swantek, Minnesota State Veterans Cemeteries Director, spoke in his interview about the process that led to the veterans cemetery being located in Preston.

Gross spoke about the importance of the veterans cemetery to families and several family members and a friend of a veteran were also interviewed. The family interviews included a husband who spoke about his wife, a child who talked about their parent, and a sibling who memorializes her sister that is buried at the veterans cemetery. A friend of someone who is laid to rest at the veterans cemetery, who may not have a family, shared their memories and their experience with the veterans cemetery.

The film crew also took some drone footage of the grounds to show a broad perspective of the grounds, filmed the operations team working in their traditional roles and spoke to several local residents about their thoughts on the veterans cemetery. When the crew returned from doing interviews with residents they commented to Gross how supportive the community is of the veterans cemetery.

Gross explains that these videos will be used in several ways, such as demonstrating the state veterans system and the tribal veterans cemeteries system.

The videos are meant â&#x20AC;&#x153;to show the public what they consist of across the United States,â&#x20AC;? states Gross.

The series of videos will also provide valuable information in areas where they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any veterans cemeteries and may be considering having one. Additionally, the videos will be uti-

lized in the Fillmore County area and beyond to raise public awareness. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As we understand, it will be something that will be put out across the entire nation,â&#x20AC;? notes Gross. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be shared with the commissioners from all states at their annual training and will probably be on the VAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website and out on their social media,â&#x20AC;? he adds.

As filming was completed at the South Dakota location prior to the Preston location, the videos should be available soon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As far as we know the videos should be done the end of August,â&#x20AC;?

Gross comments. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be something that will be readily available,â&#x20AC;? states Gross.

The community of Preston and all of Fillmore County will anxiously await the release of this series of videos highlighting our local Minnesota State Veterans Cemetery which honors those who we will never forget.

Regulating industrial solar in Fillmore County

By Karen Reisner The Fillmore County planning commission has been developing language for a Renewable Energy Ordinance over the last several months.

EDA director Marty Walsh had been directed to do some research on transmission lines and related capacity. He offered more information on the possible development of a 50 megawatt solar farm at the commission’s July 26 meeting.

In regard to the Renewable Energy Ordinance, discussion has centered on industrial solar development. The county can permit up to a 50 mW project.

Walsh reported that Tradewind Energy, a Kansas based for profit renewable energy company, is actively obtaining leases in Beaver Township for a possible future solar farm.

It is expected to take about 500 acres for the 50 mW project. Property located in a strip of land that is 2.5 miles wide and 22 miles long along the Dairyland Power Coop 69 kV line could be sought for a large

A Great Read!

solar project. This transmission line could currently support one 50 mW solar project. The commission was concerned at the previous meeting about the number of solar farms of this size that could be developed.

Walsh noted that, according to Dairyland, this is the maximum it could handle at this time, one 50 mW project. Further development would require increasing the capacity of the line and local grid system.

With the development of a 50 mW industrial solar field the county and township would get additional revenue through the Solar Energy Production Credit. The estimated $100,000 per year would be split 80% county and 20% township. Over the expected 30- to 40-year life of the solar field, this revenue could amount to $3 to $4 million. This is not a property tax which will still be assessed on the leased acres.

Local businesses would enjoy additional business during the six month or longer construction phase of the solar field, which will require a large construction force. It is expected there would be one to three full-time jobs for solar technicians after the solar farm is operational. Snow removal off the panels and mowing may provide other jobs. Land owners will get ongoing lease pay-

ments during the life of the project.

Walsh compared the long term leasing of the agricultural land for a solar farm to another long term agricultural project like forestry. Five hundred acres represents less than 1 tenth of 1% of the county’s estimated 551,000 acres and just over a tenth of 1% of the approximately 423,000 acres of agricultural land (cropland and pasture) in the county.

Solar photovoltaic panels will ideally be installed on slightly south sloping ground with few trees within about a one mile band of existing high voltage transmission lines. These transmission lines owned by Dairyland Power are west of Harmony.

As to the possibility of more solar farms being developed along these lines, there could realistically be some more but only with an increase of capacity of the transmission lines and the local grid system/substations.

Walsh said the efforts of Tradewind Energy to develop a solar farm would be the first stand alone project in the region. If the project is developed Tradewind Energy will sell it; they develop, but don’t manage and operate.

Walsh also noted agricultural land is already being used to

FILLMORE COUNTY JOURNAL

produce energy, corn for ethanol.

Duane Bakke brought up the possibility of a size restriction for the ordinance, then added landowners have a right to lease their land.

In the May meeting Tradewind Energy had suggested a few changes to the proposed ordinance. Bakke said he didn’t feel they should change the ordinance for them. Their representative said the company needs time to cover their risk/investment, suggesting the ordinance allow up to three years after the conditional use permit is issued to begin construction activities, so the CUP doesn’t expire.

The standard timeline is 12 months. Zoning Administrator Cristal Adkins said a request to allow an extended time to begin construction can be addressed in the conditional use permit.

A progress report could be required every six months.

The proposed Renewable Energy Ordinance language will likely be reviewed by the commission at the next meeting before being scheduled for public hearing.

Board of Adjustment Two public hearings were held addressing variance requests.

Seth Erickson, Section 15, Pilot Mound Township, requested a 28-foot variance from the setback to the center line of the road to construct a 30-foot by 40-foot shed. This shed will replace an existing deteriorated

Page 9

shed in the same location. He said this location will allow him to keep the shed out of a dry run, avoiding drainage issues. The new shed is to be the same distance from the road as the current shed. There was no comment from township officials or the public. The 28-foot variance was approved.

Dan Terbeest, Section 17, Bloomfield Township, returned with more information for his variance request to establish a sand pit within the 1,000foot setback to a dwelling. The variance request was tabled at the last meeting. Terbeest was directed at the June meeting to provide a survey, a specific number of feet for the variance, and a letter of consent from the neighboring home owners.

This day the survey was provided, as well as a letter of consent from Deb and Mark Larson (sister and brother-inlaw), owners of the neighboring dwelling. Terbeest asked for a 650-foot variance from the dwelling. He said he will not mine within 50 feet of the property line (setback required by the ordinance), adding this is not an active part of the sand pit. Terbeest noted the excavation had begun on the Larson property which has been mined out.

There was no comment from township officials or the public. The 650-foot variance was approved on a 4:1 vote. Gary Ruskell voted against.

Fountain rescinds motion; puts chicken ordinance on November ballot

By Kirsten Zoellner After months of discussing whether or not to allow the keeping of chickens within city limits, the Fountain Council has taken steps to put the issue on the general election ballot Tuesday, November 6.

Resident Emily Root first approached the council in May with a detailed plan for a secure coop in which to house 10 hens.

At the time, the council did not have further questions for Root and noted no major objection.

When she returned at the June meeting to hear their decision, she said she was blindsided by their decision to discuss the issue NEW OP E HOURSN:ING TH U

no further. Then, at the July meeting, Root attended with a petition from residents and support from others requesting the issue be discussed again. At that meeting, the council unanimously approved a motion to hold a public meeting on the issue.

Wednesday, August 1, the zoning ordinance was discussed once again, this time with City Attorney Dwight Luhmann present.

The first issue of debate was whether or not the city could issue a Conditional Use Permit for chickens. “It’s not possible under the current ordinance,” noted Luhmann. “The R2 District lists conditional uses and this

is not one. Ordinance 180.220 prohibits the use of buildings in the city for animal husbandry. If the council is inclined to change it, that’s another issue.”

Mayor Richard Kujath questioned whether the motion and second from the July meeting, to look into having a conditional use permit, would need to be rescinded. Luhmann affirmed the motion to hold a public meeting on the permit would need to be rescinded. The council did so unanimously.

Fountain resident Colleen Foehrenbacher requested permission to speak and asked to see minutes from the July meeting, noting her recollection was the motion was to hold a public meeting, but that conditional use permitting was not a part of the motion. City Clerk Rhonda Flattum provided a copy of the minutes and Foehrenbacher read the minutes recorded noting it approved a motion to hold a public meeting regarding the ordinance and that the permitting was not mentioned. Flattum responded noting it was on the assumption a Conditional Use Permit would be applied for.

“Is there other discussion you want to bring up?” Kujath asked the council. “What’s involved if we’re going to try and change the ordinance?”

While Luhmann noted it would take minor changes to

amend the Conditional Use Permit Ordinance, he recommended against it. Instead, Luhmann’s recommendation was to have Planning and Zoning review and potentially put together a Zoning Chicken Ordinance and bring a recommendation back to the council. “There are lots of examples of these types of ordinances out there. It’s a process you want to look at pretty carefully. If Planning and Zoning recommends a change to the ordinance, you would need a public hearing.”

Councilor Jim Schott proposed another option. “I have a feeling people don’t want to say anything publicly. To be fair to everybody, could we put it on the ballot?”

“You could. I’m not sure it lends itself very well to that approach,” said Luhmann. “The devil is in the details. How do you pose the question?”

“I don’t want the town to start bickering back and forth,” responded Schott. “A vote, that’s their right. We could use that information and move forward; do it so everyone can have their input without being put out in front of everyone else.”

“They’ll come back and say, ‘We want a duck. We want a goat,” added Councilor David Gudmundson. “How long has this been going on? Four months?

Now, not until November?”

“If it doesn’t pass, we’re done,” added Councilor Chad Wagnen.

“With the comments I’ve been hearing, it’s good to put it out there for the public to vote on.”

Resident Tony Foehrenbacher, who spoke at the July meeting in favor of the keeping of chickens, requested permission to address the council and it was allowed.

“What I’m hearing is you would like to see a vote to change the ordinance. If the voting population wants to, then you would delve into the details? That sounds like an excellent plan; sounds very reasonable,” he said. “It’s a great plan not to put the cart before the horse; a great way to find out without all the rigamarole.”

“Consider the vote a first step,” added Schott. “If they’re no, then there’s no sense in having a meeting and changing it.” He further debated whether or not a public meeting on the issue before the vote was needed. However, it was noted there is not enough time for the required public posting before the August 14 deadline to get an item on the ballot.

Luhmann will write up the question for the ballot, based off council direction, and Clerk Flattum will get it to the county prior to the deadline.

Rep. Greg Davids honored as a 2018 Legislator of Distinction July 17, 2018 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Saint Paul, MN, The League of Minnesota Cities has recognized 25 state lawmakers, including Representative Greg Davids, as 2018 Legislators of Distinction. Chosen legislators are honored for specific actions that aided efforts of Minnesota cities during the past yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s legislative session.

Legislators of Distinction are approved annually by the Leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Board of Directors in

recognition of the collaboration of state and city officials needed to successfully serve shared communities and meet the unique needs of rural, urban, and suburban residents across Minnesota.

To be eligible for the award, legislators must achieve one or more of the following criteria: â&#x20AC;˘ Be generally and reasonably accessible to League representatives.

â&#x20AC;˘ Seek input on issues of importance to cities. â&#x20AC;˘ Listen to League concerns and be receptive to League-provided information on issues. â&#x20AC;˘ Sponsor and/or support League initiatives. â&#x20AC;˘ Speak out on behalf of the interest of cities. â&#x20AC;˘ Demonstrate the importance of partnership between the state and cities.

Davids was chosen for his ded-

ication in meeting with League staff for input on Tax Committee legislation. Additionally, Davids regularly sought League positions and input on pending legislation in other committees and on the House floor.

Award winners received a letter of appreciation and a certificate. A copy of the Legislator of Distinction acknowledgement letter was also sent to the mayor of each city in the district of

each recipient.

The League of Minnesota Cities is a membership organization dedicated to helping cities throughout Minnesota build quality communities through effective advocacy, expert analysis, trusted guidance, and collective action. The League serves its more than 830 members through advocacy, education and training, policy development, risk management, and other services. For more information, visit www. lmc.org.

PAMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S OFF SALE Continued from Page 1

it was ready to go.â&#x20AC;?

The Brands have worked with Nick Thompson for several years in Rushford, and he agreed to take on the role of manager for Pamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Off Sale Liquor. Pam added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are very fortunate to have him,â&#x20AC;? and she said they are in the process of hiring additional staff to work in Harmony. Store hours are 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 11am to 6 p.m. on Sunday.

Paul said that although there are two other businesses in Harmony with off-sale liquor licenses, Pamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Off Sale Liquor is the only traditional liquor store

operating in town. He said the idea of opening a store in Harmony came about because, â&#x20AC;&#x153;For the past two or three years at our store in Rushford, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had Harmony people stop in,â&#x20AC;Ś and they said we should open one in Harmony.â&#x20AC;? The store opened on July 23, and the Brands say sales and interest in their new store have been brisk.

Paul smiled as he told of an incident on July 4, when he and Pam were in Harmony to watch fireworks and check on the construction of the store. As they stood in front of the store, someone walked right between them to try to enter the store, but they had to inform him that it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t open yet. Pam

Monday, August 6, 2018 added that quite a few people have stopped in just to look around and see what the new store looks like.

Pamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Off Sale Liquor offers beer, wine, liquors, and accessories. Paul said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We put the basics in, and then we wait for the people to tell us what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like us to put in, in addition.â&#x20AC;?

The store includes a large walkin â&#x20AC;&#x153;beer cave.â&#x20AC;? Paul added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do sales, we try to keep our prices low all the time.â&#x20AC;? He said thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been their business plan in Rushford, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s served them well.

According to Paul, the Brands plan for the future is to, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just keep doing what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing,â&#x20AC;? but he added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have done wine tastings (in Rushford), and once we get going here better, we might do some here,â&#x20AC;? especially over the winter holiday season. Pam added that the Harmony store has plenty of room for such events.

The store was originally targeted to open July 1, but Jordan explained, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We knew when we picked the date that everything would have had to land just right in order to open by then.â&#x20AC;?

Pam agreed, saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We knew we could have opened a little bit earlier (than July 23), but we wanted it to look perfect,â&#x20AC;? rather than having to explain why things were not yet completely stocked. Paul shared his appreciation for the Harmony community, stating, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been very good to work with,â&#x20AC;Ś Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re glad to be here.â&#x20AC;?

Pam added her invitation for everyone to â&#x20AC;&#x153;stop in and see us!â&#x20AC;?

Future housing/transportation needs in Fillmore County

By Karen Reisner Will Fillmore County be prepared to provide affordable housing during a period which will likely see job growth in the area?

Both Destination Medical Center and the potential veterans home in Preston could provide jobs that encourage economic growth and increase housing demand in the region.

DMC will likely provide some demand for housing in Fillmore County, especially for workers who prefer living outside of the city. Workers will weigh the higher dollar cost of housing in Rochester against the cost of travel and time if they choose to live in a smaller town.

The DMC initiative kicked off in 2013 seeks to make Rochester a hub for medical education, research, and innovation. It is expected to drive growth providing over a couple of decades an additional 25,000 to 35,000 jobs.

Most of the development will be in a 10 to 12 block radius in downtown Rochester.

In the city of Rochester Comprehensive Plan approved in 2018 it was estimated that 3,300 trips are made by workers from Fillmore County. Planners estimate daily commutes will increase 50% by 2040. Some of these commuters will possibly choose to live in Fillmore County.

DMC growth is also expected to cause a surge in visitors to the region. This is an opportunity for Fillmore County tourism growth, also providing employment possibilities.

If the construction of a veterans home becomes a reality, housing demands will increase in Preston and surrounding communities.

The University of Minnesota estimated a 72-bed home may provide about 234 jobs.

The most recent housing study for the county was conducted by Maxfield Research 2009. Neither growth from DMC or a potential veterans home in Preston were in the mix at that time.

Commuters to Rochester are encouraged to “park and ride.”

Use of transit vehicles will help alleviate the problem of limited parking space in downtown Rochester. If some parking areas are located in Fillmore County communities, commuters will more likely shop in these communities. If transportation and parking issues are dealt with, making a home in surrounding communities may become more attractive for Rochester workers.

Lower cost housing and walkable cities may add to the attractiveness of smaller surrounding communities.

Rochester planners expect growth along the city limits south of Highway 52, especially along CSAH 1. This is already the most traveled county road in Fillmore County. Rochester workers looking for larger lot sizes for their homes may find themselves looking in Fillmore County (Sumner Township) which is just over a mile from Stewartville city limits.

Adequate and comfortable retirement housing is necessary for seniors who prefer the small town living environment.

Preston recently approved an updated housing needs assessment. One interesting fact is that considerably more people commute to Preston for work than the number of people who live

in Preston and commute to work outside of Preston. A relatively small number of workers both live and are employed in Preston.

Preston’s population growth has been declining since the 2009 housing assessment. The 2009 assessment projected a modest increase in population over this period in the city of Preston.

Factors contributing to the decline include “aging, technology advances in agriculture, longer commute times to Rochester than other communities, and a lack of new housing supply.” The study looks at an opportunity for growth in Preston. This would require more Preston workers to live in Preston, a retention of senior citizens, and an increase in second home and retiree population. These factors could reverse population decline and see population growth and housing unit growth. The study makes it clear that the prospect for growth would require city infrastructure improvements, investments in tourism attractions (riverfront and trails), senior care and retirement housing, industrial park expansion and business investments, and an upgrade to Highway 52 to Rochester.

Maxfield Research did a May 2015 housing needs analysis for Rushford. Over half the total housing demand over a 10-year period is expected to be for senior housing in Rushford. The study notes for-sale houses have been slow since the recession. Existing supply of for-sale houses is low and new housing lots will be needed to support the projected demand. There will be a need for moderate income level homes as well as move-up single family

Fillmore County Primary eleCtion august 14, 2018

homes.

The 2008 recession slowed housing growth in Fillmore County cities to a near stand still. Chatfield city planner Kristi Clarke said housing growth is just

getting back to a normal percentage.

If Fillmore County communities want to take advantage of regional growth factors, it will need to take steps to meet the needs of new workers and their See FUTURE HOUSING Page 27 

Ask a Trooper

By Sgt. Troy Christianson Minnesota State Patrol Question: Do I need an oversize or wideload permit to haul a boat lift that is over 9 feet wide to my cabin?

Answer: You would need to obtain a permit because Troy H. the width is Christianson over eight feet six inches. Hauling oversized items without a permit or escorts (if required) can be dangerous and is illegal. Troopers and private escort companies are required to be trained and certified.

An oversize and/or overweight permit is required when: • An overall loaded width exceeds eight feet, six inches.

• An overall loaded height exceeds 13 feet, six inches.

• An overall loaded length exceeds 75 feet on combination vehicles.

• An overall loaded length exceeds 45 feet on single vehicles.

• When the overall GVW exceeds 80,000 pounds.
