Lanesboro Child Care Center expands to accommodate more families By H annah Wingert hannah@fillmorecountyjournal.com
“It’s been really exciting for me to finally be able to say yes when people call,” Lanesboro Child Care Center Director Heidi Brown said. Until the recent expansion of the center, she had to answer inquiries for childcare by telling them that she’d put them on the waiting list. Before the daycare was expanded, it was licensed to care for 11 infants, 14 toddlers, 35 preschoolers, and 15 school age children. It is now licensed for up to 20 infants, 25 toddlers, 51 preschoolers, and 45 school age children. In 2016, Brown realized that the number of children in the daycare program who were going into kindergarten meant that the
15 spots in the Kids’ Korner or school age program were not going to be sufficient. She met with Superintendent Schultz and worked with him and the school board to increase the licensed number to 45. “They were all very supportive of it,” she said. Currently, there are about 30 children from kindergarten through 12 years of age enrolled in Kids’ Korner. It didn’t stop there though. With the waiting list for the rest of the daycare growing as well, Brown knew that it was time to expand the whole program. Construction for the daycare expansion began in the second week of August, 2017. “We had a lot of really good people working on it,” Brown remarked.

County preliminary 2018 budget Rushford opts for bluff road reconstruct By K aren R eisner
karen@fillmorecountyjournal.com
The commissioners covered a lot of ground at an extended September 5 board meeting. The process of reviewing each departmental budget continued. Public Health, Human Services, the various budgets related to the Sheriff’s office, and others were looked at in some detail. The total 2018 budget increase proposed by Jessica Erickson, director of nursing, in her department was over $100,000. She said her department was looking into how to increase funding/revenue sources. Kevin Olson, Social Services
8th Annual
manager, proposed a $265,288 budget increase over 2017. Nearly $200,000 of the increase is related to salary and insurance increases. About $41,000 of the increase is related to placement and guardianship. There is also $22,000 in lost waiver revenue. Chairman Randy Dahl noted the state has cut the rate of reimbursement 18% on mandated services at a time when the state has been enjoying a surplus. This is a cost shift to local property taxes. Commissioner Duane Bakke pointed out that the state would counter, saying that they provided an increase in County Program Aid (CPA). The county received $604,428 in CPA in 2017 and will receive
$698,998 in 2018. The county has one bond which requires a debt retirement payment of $215,000 and a $46,306 interest payment in 2018. The 2010 bond is scheduled to be paid off in 2024. The preliminary budget and levy as of September 5 for 2018 shows a 7.12% increase or $710,321. This amounts to $512.31 per capita. A 1% increase represents about $100,000. The preliminary budget and levy will be considered for approval before the end of September. The final numbers to be certified in December can be lower, but not higher. See COUNTY BUDGET Page 2

The City of Rushford, upon review of engineering estimates, has opted not to look further into the buyout of two bluff properties within the city limits. Purchase of the two homes, located on Lamplighter Lane, was discussed at the earlier August meeting as the city grappled with how to address the failing roadway. The homes sit perched on the east Rushford bluff, part of a four-part subdivision that saw construction on only two lots in the late 1970s and are accessed only by the steeply pitched lane. Options before the city at the
Monday, August 28 meeting included the possible buyout and road reconstruction. The buyout option included purchase of the homes, of which one is for sale, demolition/removal, and road removal. The second option was initially thought to be cost prohibitive. After further study by Brian Malm, Project Engineer for Bolton & Menk, the city council was presented with an estimated breakdown of costs and came to a consensus for the latter. Alternative B, road removal, was estimated upwards of $40,000, including $102,000 for See BLUFF ROAD Page 11

COUNTY BUDGET Continued from Page 1
Amish Civil Litigation County Attorney Brett Corson updated commissioners on legal issues with a segment of the Amish community that still use straight pipes to drain untreated waste water onto the ground surface, instead of into a holding tank with a drain field. County zoning ordinance allows Amish families to use a gray water system which is not a full septic system. These systems are inspected after they are installed. With this system they need to have a compliant outhouse, an outdoor bathroom constructed to certain standards. Zoning Administrator Cristal Adkins said there are about 15 families they are working with that are still non-compliant. She notes they expect there are still more families besides those that are also non-compliant. Corson said one case is set for trial in about three weeks. This case is brought by the county, not
MPCA. There are other cases that do involve the MPCA. Corson added they would like to see involvement from the state in all cases. Recently, it has been discovered that in a couple of cases five gallon buckets are used in the outhouse and spread with no treatment. Bakke expressed disappointment that some Amish aren’t conforming to the lesser standards allowed for the Amish community. The MPCA has allowed the deadline to be extended, which allows this segment of the Amish community to believe this will continue. Dahl suggested that if they are allowed to remain non-compliant, it will make it harder to enforce other zoning ordinances. Corson called it a public health issue. He stated that this is a small segment that we are dealing with; there is a possibility we can get this resolved. Both Corson and Adkins expressed their respect for the Amish religious beliefs and culture.
Monday, September 11, 2017 Other business in brief • EDA Director Stephanie Hatzenbihler reviewed 2016/2017. The Fillmore County Broadband Alliance was established, after which Border to Border Grant applications were submitted. AcenTek in rural Lanesboro received the fourth largest grant in the amount of about $1.8 million last year. The Broadband Development Fund was established, a revolving loan fund for partnership with regional providers who want to invest in broadband infrastructure in Fillmore County. AcenTek is the first to use the $75,000 revolving loan this year as part of a Border to Border Grant. Hatzenbihler is working to strengthen relationships with community EDAs within the county. • A resolution was adopted in support of endorsing a Border to Border Grant application of AcenTek in Rushford Village/rural Rushford. If the grant is awarded the county will make available $75,000 in support of the application. This is a resubmission of
Call the FCJ at 507-765-2151 to advertise or offer news tips! an application that was not funded last year. Cris Gastner, CEDA, said the state needs to continue the Broadband program, because without the state funds it will not pencil out for providers to build broadband infrastructure. • Patrol Sergeant Derek Fuglestad explained the Toward Zero Death agreement with the Minnesota Department of Public Safety. The county with Preston and Chatfield police departments will receive $7,400 for traffic safety enforcement from October 1 to September 30, 2018. • The Employment Status policy and holiday policy were each approved as amended. • Logan Brand was hired as replacement full-time deputy effective September 8. • Kurt Njos was hired as fulltime social worker effective September 8. He will work in the mental health area. • A request to retire from Social Worker Barb Zoelle-Johnson was accepted with much thanks for 30 years of service, effective April 30, 2018. A request to hire a replacement social worker from a
list of candidates effective April 1 was approved. The month overlap is allowed for cross training to provide continuity of service while filling the Johnson position. Bakke voted no, questioning the need for two people doing the same job for a time. • The possibility of doing a complete compensation study in 2018 was discussed. County Coordinator Bobbie Vickerman said there is $35,000 in the budget to do the study which will include job descriptions. It will take six to nine months to complete. The Personnel committee preferred the study over an annual review of job descriptions. • County Engineer Ron Gregg recommended and received approval of numerous final payments to contractors, saying he was satisfied with all of the work done under these contracts. A 2001 Ford Explorer and FEMA trailer will be advertised for sale on sealed bids. A Hanger Lease Agreement at the Fillmore County Airport was approved with tenant Brent Kohn.

C ommentary Celebrating our future entrepreneurs By Tim Penny President/CEO Southern Minnesota Initiative Foundation In late July the Somali American Cultural Society of Owatonna (SACSO), was vandalized with Tim Penny spray paint and had a fire lit in front of its building. I was saddened by this senseless act of vandalism against SASCO which has been a reliable and valued Southern Minnesota Initiative Foundation (SMIF) grantee and client. Several years ago, SASCO was founded by Ibrahim Hussein to serve the job search needs of Owatonna-area Somali refugees, as well as provide after-school homework assistance to Somali children. Let me tell you more about Ibrahim Hussein. Hussein had to leave Somalia at the age of six when civil war broke out in his country. Since coming to Minnesota in 2007, he has been nothing but a force for good in this community. Hussein was a teacher in Kenya, where he lived in the world’s largest refugee camp, but since he didn’t have the qualifications to teach in American, he became a Somali liaison for the schools instead. He is in his last year at my alma mater, Winona State University, for his teaching degree, and is currently student teaching at McKinley Elementary School in Owatonna. “I’ve been here for 10 years,” says Hussein. “I love this community.” As I mentioned above, Hussein started SACSO to help students with homework and other Somali residents with various cultural barriers. Hussein also supports the Editorial Cartoon
Veterans Association in Owatonna and is a member of the local Human Rights Commission. On behalf of a SMIF recommendation, Ibrahim Hussein was selected for a 2012 Virginia McKnight Binger Award for Human Service by The McKnight Foundation. In 2016, he followed his entrepreneurial spirit and helped to open Sunrise Grill in Owatonna, a restaurant that now employs three people. Accordingly, in addition to the grant from SMIF to help start SACSO, as a new business entrepreneur, he was eligible to become a SMIF Prosperity Initiative client. Hussein received help putting together a business plan for Sunrise Grill from his Prosperity Initiative coach. The Prosperity Initiative was launched in 2015 to create an entrepreneurial ecosystem for minority entrepreneurs in SMIF’s 20-county region. The Prosperity Initiative was funded by a two-year grant from the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED), and was launched by SMIF because we know that our region’s demographics are changing. From 2000-2015, the number of people of color in SMIF’s region doubled from 45,561 to 90,179 (Minnesota Compass). In addition, a 2015 Kauffman Foundation report found that 28.5% of new entrepreneurs in the U.S. were immigrants. With Minnesota’s aging demographics, if our region’s small towns want to thrive, we will need new entrepreneurs, including the highlyentrepreneurial immigrant populations. While immigrants have proven themselves to be hard-working and entrepreneurial across our region, from communities like St. James to Winona, and Faribault to Austin, they often face more barriers to success. In fall 2015,
the Organizational Effectiveness Research Group at Minnesota State University, Mankato survey of immigrant entrepreneurs indicated that 91% of respondents would “benefit from additional resources to help their company grow and develop,” while 68% felt “a lack of support and mentorship to help them move their business to the next level.” Other barriers include a lack of access to alternative financing, systems disadvantages (i.e.: credit history), lack of community support and resources, and cultural and language barriers. To address these needs, SMIF is now recruiting for a second cohort of Prosperity Initiative clients with grants from The McKnight Foundation and Profinium. Ten more minority businesses will be selected for one-on-one business coaching and peer networking. Email Pam Bishop (pamb@ smifoundation.org) for more information. Inclusiveness in our communities and in our economies is a goal of the Prosperity Initiative. Other ways to reach out and support our region’s growing minority population are thoughtfully addressed by Kim Schaufenbuel, Executive Director of United Way of Steele County in her recent op-ed. As always, I welcome your comments and questions. You can reach me at timp@smifoundation.org or (507) 455-3215.. About Southern Minnesota Initiative Foundation Southern Minnesota Initiative Foundation (SMIF), a donorsupported foundation, invests for economic growth in the 20 counties of south central and southeastern Minnesota.

Harmony EDA announces return of Experience Harmony community input program The Harmony Economic Development Authority (EDA) is hosting the second series of “Experience Harmony” to gather community input on how to continue to grow and improve the community over the next several years. The first Experience Harmony series was held in early 2014, shortly after major regional initiatives like Mayo Clinic’s Destination Medical Center, or DMC, were announced and Harmony community members wanted to work together to better harness the projected major economic growth opportunities. In the first series, about 35 community members met over the course of two public input meetings to dream about what would make Harmony a better place to live, work, and play. No idea was too big or too small and cost was not an object in the first meeting’s brainstorming session. Project ideas ranged from building a community garden to digging a lake. During the second meeting, participants took those ideas to try to tackle the basic project feasibility, develop conceptual work plans, and identify potential project champions to move the projects forward. From the concepts that came forward in the public input meetings, a community survey was conducted for additional feedback and based on all of the results gathered, five projects were identified as priorities. Four of the projects, attract a new day care center, build community gardens, hold career fairs for Fillmore Cen-

There will be a request that the county provide its parcel to the city to transfer to Bunge, the developer.

Street project delayed As requested, City Engineer Brett Grabau presented a tentative schedule for a Twenty18 street improvement project. He explained it was possible to do in the time frame but extremely tight. The city would have to decide on the size of the project.

Councilman David Collett voted against. In the North Street Project agreement the city is to sell four unimproved city parcels to Bunge for $1. Bunge agrees to build four housing units, each of at least 950 square feet (two duplexes at minimum) within the next five years, pending the purchase of the McCallison property. Bunge is to purchase the McCallison home and remove the current structure, so as to improve the property with a

way 52. City Administrator Joe Hoffman added we might also be thinking east of St. Paul St. Collett said we need to decide what we would do with Center St. Grabau explained that one and two block sections have been put off that need work that have not made the cut with past projects. Decisions have to be made about the size of the project, what areas of town, and the cost. Mayor Kurt Reicks suggested it may be better to plan a project for 2019. Maust said with a 2018 project there would be no payment in 2018, only interest in 2019. He argued that cost of the work could increase 2-3% if they waited another year. Councilwoman Holly Zuck stated she did not want to rush into anything. Hoffman said the scope of the project would have to be decided in the next couple of weeks to go forward in 2018. Grabau noted that ideally a feasibility report would be authorized by July, not September. Hoffman suggested that it may be best to include money in the budget for a future street project now, so as not to have a
FILLMORE COUNTY JOURNAL huge increase in 2020. He will bring options to the next meeting. It was the consensus of the council to wait until some of these questions can be decided and authorize a feasibility report at a later date. Trailhead stream bank restoration Quotes were obtained from Barth Construction for additional stream bank restoration along the Trailhead Park. The total quote with sales tax was $18,743.23. It was broken down into three parts so the council could do any part or all of the area. Hoffman noted once the area is cleared Public Works would need to maintain the additional area to keep woody growth down. Reicks said, if we are going to do it, now is the time because of the permitting process. An amendment to the stream bank restoration project to include these areas would be required and would cost the city $500 to prepare and to submit the documents. The council unanimously decided to go ahead with all three parts. Other business in brief • Hoffman announced that the cost of health insurance for the city/utility will be increased by 15% in 2018.

greater increase than was in the proposed budget. Claims have been lower than expected for three years in a row. This unexpected large increase will amount to an additional $4,200 increase to the levy over the first draft. The cost of the city’s health insurance did not increase in 2016 and 2017. The city is locked into this insurance for 2018. The increase will raise the proposed levy increase from 7.57% to 8.07%. Employees share of the health insurance payments will also increase 15%. The council will need to certify the preliminary budget and levy before the end of September. • A assessment hearing was held on the 2017 sidewalk improvements. Jim Bakken reviewed the assessment roll. Property owners pay 50% of assessable sidewalk. ADA ramps are not assessable. There were no comments from the public or the council. A resolution was approved adopting the assessment roll for the 2017 sidewalk improvements. • A rezoning request from Travis Malley with consent of property owner Mike Schwarz was approved as recommended by Planning and Zoning. A small parcel at 230 Maple St. will be rezoned from R-1 (Ag/ Residential) to R-2 (One and Two Family Residential). A resolution was approved adopting ordinance 27X amending the city code to allow the rezoning and split of about a half acre from the larger parcel. Malley intends to build a single family home on the half acre parcel. • A contract with the Minnesota Municipal Utilities Association to provide safety coordination services for the city/utility was approved. The city’s 45% share is estimated to be $7,087, which represents a 2.3% increase over 2017. • The city’s contract with S&S Sanitation will expire at the end of 2017. Maust said there have been very few complaints about the service. There was a consensus to look into extending the contract. • Councilman Charles Sparks and councilwoman Holly Zuck will serve on a joint committee for labor negotiations with the Preston Public Employees Association. The current contract will expire at the end of this year. • A request for a $4,000 loan as per Greater Minnesota Housing Fund loan terms from Jon Gatzke to renovate two vacant apartments at 216 St. Paul St. was approved as recommended by the EDA. • A $3,750 contribution from the EDA to the National Trout Center was approved. • The Minnesota Department of Public Safety Toward Zero Deaths Grant with Fillmore County Sheriff’s office was approved. TZD focuses on education, emergency, enforcement, and engineering. The grant program provides federal funds to law enforcement for enhanced traffic enforcement.

Fillmore County Sports By Paul Trende sports@fillmorecountyjournal.com T h e r e The Trende wasn’t Report a snow day, or a cold day. School hadn’t q u i t e started so technically everyone was Paul Trende staying home anyway. From Houston to Spring Valley to Chatfield to Lanesboro to Harmony to Mabel, the first week of the football season had six of seven county teams playing home games. Six picked up victories.
Houston’s Thursday Night Lights
With a big Spring Grove versus Cleveland/Emmanuel Lutheran 9-man game scheduled for Friday, Houston got a head start on the season by hosting Alden-Conger/Glenville Emmons Thursday. Joey Fishel and Zach Schneider combined to score the game’s first five TDs and the Hurricanes converted four two-point attempts to build a 38-0 second quarter lead. They cruised past A-C/GE 52-25. Fishel (10-108, 3 TDs rushing) and Schneider (3-63, 2 TDs rushing) led the way. Jaytin Millen (5-43, TD rushing, 2-4, 49 passing) and Jacob Cripps (17-yard TD run) also found pay-dirt. Houston (45) ran just one more play than the Knights (44). The ‘Canes had zero turnovers and went 6 for 9 on third downs. AC/G-E had two turnovers and went 2-for-10 on third downs. Trojans ‘Two’ Much for Knights
Only one county team didn’t play at home. Defending section champion RushfordPeterson got two TDs from five different guys in handling Kingsland 58-0 in Spring Valley. Jake Paulson made plays in all three phases (4 receptions, 102 yards, 2 TDs, 90 return yards, sack) to lead the way. He and Landon Skalet (8-17, 148 yards, 2 TDs passing) continued their connectivity. Ethan Sense (20-91, 2 TDs rushing) was the workhorse while Dawson Dahl (4-50, 2 TDs rushing) made the most of his carries. Sophomore Triton Meldahl (9-130, 2 TDs rushing) came in late and authored the game’s longest play, an 84-yard TD run. Ethan Hermanson added a TD run while Ben Wieser had a pair of fumble recoveries. Kingsland didn’t get a first down until the fourth. An Ethan Fenske 55-yard pass to Braydn Willford was their biggest play. A fumble in the red
zone ended the Knights’ best scoring threat.
Gophers Blast Lancers
In Chatfield, the Gophers dominated La Crescent. Ben Ihrke (7-66, 3 TDs rushing) had all of his scoring runs in the first half. Kyle Nosbisch plowed past the century mark (17-133, 2 TDs rushing). The Gopher defense snared five turnovers, had three sacks, and Ben Brogan authored a 21-yard interception return TD. Freshman Reid Johnson had two interceptions. Carter Fishbaugher and Carson Larrabee forced fumbles. Nosbisch recovered both. La Crescent had just one play over 15 yards, a 63-yard Ty Mallicoat to Ben Nelson TD strike, their only score. Gopher freshman Tate Karver’s 15-yard TD run was a cap to a 47-7 Chatfield win.
Burros Stay Ahead of Madelia
In the county’s most competitive contest, home Lanesboro stayed one step ahead of Madelia. The Burros never trailed, but had leads cut to four three times (10-6, 16-12, 22-18). The last came in the fourth quarter. Lanesboro then drove deep into Madelia territory, turning the ball over on downs. The Blackhawks were then forced to go-for-it on fourth down inside their own 20, and were turned away. Burro QB Carson Schwichtenberg’s second TD run of the fourth sealed the deal. Lanesboro prevailed 30-18. Schwichtenberg (14-99, 2 TDs rushing, 10-20, 86 yards, TD passing) accounted for three of the Burros four TDs. Brett Wangen (18-103, TD rushing) was the leading rusher. Caden Anderson caught a 7-yard TD pass. Lanesboro also recorded a safety. Connor Ruen was the busiest Burro (two FFs, sack, 111 return yards, 145 all-purpose yards).
Falcons Blank Vikings
In Harmony, Fillmore Central junior tailback Josh Peters sprinted 54 yards to pay-dirt on the game’s very first offensive play. It was all the points the Falcons needed to secure victory over Hayfield. Logan Corson added a 49-yard TD run on FC’s next possession. Dawson Schmidt authored a 46-yard interception return TD on the Vikings ensuing possession. The Falcons sported a 20-0 first quarter lead and shut-out the Vikings 35-0. Peters (8-138, 2 TDs rushing; 2-61 receiving) and Corson (11-82, 2 TDs rushing; 6-8, 104 yards passing) each added TD runs. Defensively, Luke Ristau, Ryli Tostenson, and Brock Walsh each had two sacks. Hayfield was limited to just one double-digit yard play and held under 100 yards total offense.
Kuhn’s Boon Propels Cougars
In Mabel, Cougar Ryan Kuhn amassed a bountiful five total TDs to lead M-C past Grenada-Huntley-East Chain/ Truman (GHEC/Truman). The 5’9” 150-pound junior had TD runs of 42, 11, 37, and 3, plus an 83-yard KOR TD. He finished with 16 carries for 192 yards on the ground. Drew Wyffels (3-51, TD rushing; 4-5, 89 yards, TD passing), Brenden Kerns (8-55, TD rushing) and Ethan Underbakke (2-50, TD receiving) also found the end zone. M-C faced just three third downs to GHEC/Truman’s 13. The Cougars scored the game’s first 38 points, and GHEC/Truman only found the end zone in the fourth quarter. The final was 50-22.
Opening A New Home
Rushford-Peterson opened a new school and thus a new gymnasium. The first official varsity game at the new venue was a win. R-P volleyball beat L-A in four sets; 25-22, 25-22, 22-25, 25-15. Lauren Lawston (13 kills, 11 digs) and Kensay Clobes (9 kills, 14 digs, 3 aces) led the way. Kaitlyn Bieberdorf (7 kills, 15-15 serving), Peyton Hoiness (28 assists), and Nicole Blagsvedt (19-20 serving, 4 aces) also helped the Trojan cause. R-P then welcomed Fillmore Central.

CHILD CARE
Continued from Page 1
During the time the work was being done, the daycare remained open. That had its challenges, but the staff at the Lanesboro Child Care Center were ready for them. “The staff did very well making things work,” Brown said. “It was actually fun. It’s nice to be in our new homes though.” Closing the daycare was never an option. Brown and the staff agreed that it was important to continue to support the enrolled families with their child care needs. Despite a few surprises during construction, the total costs of the expansion project when it was completed were on track with what had been anticipated. On August 30, the center officially moved into its new rooms, just in time for the school year to start. “The transition went as well as can be expected,” Brown said. “The kids have all been very excited about the new spaces. We’re finding our new normal now.” The expansion wouldn’t have been possible without the support of the daycare families as well. “They were incredible and extremely supportive of what we were trying to do,” Brown noted. “There’s no words to describe how much we appreciate it.” The center’s expansion allowed the preschoolers to break up into more targeted groups. With three rooms available for the 3-5-yearolds, they were separated into 3/4 year olds and 4/5 year olds, which will allow the teachers to focus their curriculum better.
Page 9
The third room will be used when the others are full and with a large number of toddlers moving up to the preschool group, that will happen soon. The new infant room includes three separate sleeping areas with cribs which allows for independent schedules. Brown noted that the staff cares for the babies based on their individual needs rather than being forced to be on the same schedule as each other. The staff in both the infant and toddler rooms work with each child and family to determine when they are ready to be moved up to the next group. “We’re a center, but we really like to give individualized care and focus on the needs of the child,” Brown pointed out. Based on wait lists and expectant families, Brown anticipates that the infant, toddler, and, preschool rooms will come close to being filled to capacity by January 2018. Kids’ Korner will continue to use the high school library for its after school program. “It works really well for us,” Brown said. “We’re not using the space during the day so there’s no sense in having a big empty space sitting there.” The child care center works closely with the Lanesboro school to share spaces and pool resources. “It’s a privilege to serve the community and be a part of people’s families the way that we are,” Brown said. Anyone interested in enrolling in the Lanesboro Child Care Center can contact Heidi Brown at (507) 467-2175.

road removal. Home purchases were estimated by Mike Bubany, financial consultant for the city, at $280,000. Additional costs related to analyzation of building materials for asbestos could add another $6,000-14,000, including $4,000 for the testing. The watermain could be abandoned in place, but the sanitary sewer lines would require sand filling and disconnection and plugging to prevent infiltration and inflow in the rest of the system. Alternative A, reconstruction, is estimated to cost $186,000, which could be bonded for at an estimated 2.8% rate for a 10-year term. This includes addressing the underground utility. Water and sanitary sewer mains were televised by Public Works in 2007
and have had no issues since the subdivision’s construction. However, Malm indicated the peak lifespan of such utilities is 40 years. In street reconstruction, it’s typically recommended to upgrade underground utility if possible to avoid cutting into the road later with costly patches. Lamplighter Lane, however, offers an unusual solution in that the watermain can be replaced at a later date without tearing into a street with a process known as pipe bursting. Essentially, a pipe can be sliced and a new, larger main pulled through without disturbing the surface, save for the service ends, which are at the top in the cul-de-sac and at the bottom of the lane. Likewise, sanitary sewer mains can be addressed using Cured-InPlace Pipe, another method that places another pipe within the old

Monday, September 11, 2017 through inflation of plastic pipe. Both of the methods are traditionally more costly that open-cut work, but due to the lack of additional service lines and the overall length of the road, it is favorable in this project. “The pavement is heavily deteriorated. It’s outlived its life,” said Malm. Further details of the road, provided by a Public Works video indicated the road is poorly crowned, causing directional water flow issues. If water were to get enough force beneath the 17-18% slope of the road, it could potentially slough large pieces of bituminous pavement down to the road and properties below. “A typical maximum you’d want to maintain is 5% [slope],” added Malm. “We reached the point of needed reconstruction several years ago.” “It’s now an operational problem right now. We could address the pavement and leave the utility alone,” said Malm. The council debated whether the city could afford to take in assumptions, leaving the utilities alone. The option of a phased project was also discussed, but it was suggested the city should consider all at once if possible. Typically, road projects are assessed to the property owners at a rate of 20-30%, per city policy. Road projects often include multiple road projects in an effort to get an economy of scale on contracting bids as well as bringing down both city and assessment costs. Because of the type of bond

proposed, the city would not be able to assess the properties for the road. The city is not anticipating any other road projects until 2019/2020, but it’s unknown if the road can wait that long. “At a bare minimum, it needs to be resurfaced,” said Public Works Director Roger Knutson. “It’s beyond gone. It is unsafe.” “It’s a lot less than I thought it would be,” added Mayor Chris Hallum. The city will look further into street reconstruction bond authority as a way to free the city from the need of having to add another street to wrap into the project. In other news, the council approved two change orders for the aircraft fueling system at the municipal airport. The recommendations by the airport commission included an upgrade to the credit card reader for the fuel pumps for improved maintenance and serviceability, addition of a gate and road access for easier fueling offload, at a city cost of $800. Also approved was the soliciting for Requests for Qualifications for professional on-call airport engineering and planning services. Currently, the city contracts with Mead & Hunt, but the contract expires in October. Because of federal funding, the city is required to seek the RFQs every five years. It’s expected the city could get proposals from Mead & Hunt, of Eau Claire, Wis., Bolton & Menk and Widseth Smith Nolting, both of Rochester.

During the time for public comment, Loken’s Rushford Inn co-owner Eileen Loken brought forth concerns related to events within the community having an impact on her business. Both noise and parking are issues that Loken believes are hindering the inn’s business. The city has a noise ordinance, but Loken insisted that music during Rushford Days and Relay for Life go well into the night, disturbing inn guests. Limited parking during those events congests the area for inn patrons as well. “It’s a major issue and needs to be dealt with,” said Loken. “It’s not working. It’s another obstacle in front of us. What are we to do? It’s creating negative consequences on us.” Loken asked that the city and event planners include her in planning. “I want to be part of the discussion. I need your help. I would like to think you’d like us to keep our doors open.” Loken suggested that perhaps the downtown depot/trail location is not the most suited location for the events. City Administrator Tony Chladek noted he’d indicated the Relay for Life planners would be involving Loken in the planning process. He couldn’t speak directly to the Rushford Days events which are planned by a local group of volunteers. The next regularly scheduled meeting is Monday, September 11, at 6:30 p.m., at city hall. The public is encouraged to attend.

By Kathy Little “Chatty Kathy” was my name in high school for obvious reasons! There aren’t many people who have a doll named after them. Well, of course there is my sister Barbie. She is a real life doll who everyone one loves because of her fun nature and generous heart. I guess no one gets to choose their nickname. If I could have chosen , I would be called “Crafty Kathy.” My hands were not designed to craft beautiful objects. I am so jealous of those talented and creative people! When I sincerely compliment them, they reply, “It is so easy to knit, crochet, quilt, paint.” I want to believe them, but then I try, and it ends badly. Wasted money on supplies, time and energy. “Frustrated Kathy” has a temper tantrum. Once upon a time I was in a homemaker’s club. We met once a month to learn decorating tips, try new recipes, and of course, have the “ dreaded” craft lesson. I tried to miss those meetings to spare myself embarrassment. Sooner or later I went to one such lesson. We were all going to make a dried milk weed pod Christmas tree on a piece of cardboard to hang on the wall. Those crafters have flying fingers. By the time I had sprayed my pods gold, everyone else had finished the entire project. Their trees were beautiful. I promised that I would finish mine at home. I did work on the project at home. I glued the pods to the cardboard. Then I glued tiny Christmas balls into the center of each gold pod. Because my unco-
Call the FCJ at 507-765-2151 to advertise or offer news tips!
ordinated fingers were sticky with glue, I pulled some of the pods right off the cardboard. Overcome by frustration, I tipped the glue over on the cardboard and the table. While washing the glue off the table, some water got on the cardboard. That flimsy cardboard started to buckle and bend and more pods came off. “Frustrated Kathy” had a temper tantrum and ripped that soggy, sticky cardboard to bits and threw that and all the pods and tiny ornaments into the garbage can. End of crafting project! Later when a friend from the club called me, I lied and said my tree turned out beautifully. She suggested that I bring it to the next meeting to show the other members. I was starting to feel like Lucille Ball on the television show. Trapped by my fickle fingers and my lie, I was in a bad position. Should I make another tree or confess the lie and admit my failure once again as a crafter? I didn’t like either option. Sooooo after much consideration, I lied again. Over the phone I explained to my friend that the tree had fallen off the wall, and my cats destroyed it. I realized I had turned into one of my English students who said that the dog ate their homework. Fortunately, none of my students belonged to the homemakers club! I can read a recipe, and my fingers can handle common kitchen utensils. Perhaps, my nickname should be “Cooking Kathy.”

Our staff at the Fillmore County Journal would like to take a moment to thank our readers and our advertisers for their support, participation, and sense of ownership of this publication. Without the support of our advertisers, we could not provide meaningful coverage of city council, county board, and school board meetings. We also could not provide free obituaries, along with free birth, engagement, wedding, and military service announcements. Without the support of our advertisers, there would be no sports section, and no recognition of the accomplishments of our youth. And, we wouldn't be able to provide all of the great human interest stories that capture the interests and hearts of our readers. And, we thank our readers for not only supporting this publication by reading the newspaper cover-to-cover each week, but for also supporting the businesses that advertise in this publication.

Recycling 101 By LaVerne C. Paulson Recycling Education Coordinator The most common item made from iron is the steel food can. Rechargeable batteries must be recycled. A recycled aluminum can is usually LaVerne C. Paulson back on the grocery shelf in about sixty days. Approximately 11% of household garbage is compostable. The easy open aluminum can has been around since 1962. It has been estimated that more than 275 million dollars worth of uneaten turkey becomes garbage around the Thanksgiving holiday. Paper egg cartons are now recyclable in Fillmore County. Twentyfive percent of the annual food waste in the United States occurs between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day. The average American generates 106 pounds of food waste annually. Worn, torn, or faded American Flags are NOT garbage. They should be given to a veterans organization to be disposed of properly during a dignified ceremony. Ninety percent of the atmospheric mercury that falls into Minnesota lakes and streams that make some of our fish unsafe to eat comes from outside the state. Plastic caps from plastic bottles
should be sent with landfill garbage. Nearly 45% of rural Minnesotans still burn their garbage on site. Bread bags and potato bags can be taken back to a store along with your plastic shopping bags. Each nine-volt battery must be put into an individual zip lock bag and be wrapped in tape to keep it from causing sparks during storage or disposal. Many batteries that seem to be dead still have enough power to cause problems. Keep all batteries in original packaging until you are ready to use them. Of all the materials recycled, paper products account for 71% by weight. Steel and aluminum cans make up only 5% by weight. Eighty-eight percent of plastic bottles are not recycled, but instead find their way to the landfill. Only one in five Americans recycle. If the label on the container of a household item has the word “danger,” “poison,” “warning,” “corrosive,” or “flammable” on it, it should be considered a hazardous substance. Mark your calendar now. The fall hazardous waste day is scheduled for Tuesday, October 3, just a few short weeks away. As usual, the celebration will begin at noon and end at 5 p.m. Please watch for the notices that will be published in the Fillmore County Journal as well as other newspapers throughout the county. These notices will list what can and cannot be accepted as HHW. A Recycling 101 article is scheduled to published prior to the date as well.

State adds 7,700 jobs in July Unemployment rate steady at 3.7% ST. PAUL – Minnesota employers added 7,700 jobs in July, according to seasonally adjusted figures released today by the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED). In addition, June’s employment figures were revised upward by 4,900 jobs to bring total gains that month to 9,300 jobs. Minnesota has added 66,701 jobs in the past year, an increase of 2.3%, compared with a national growth rate of 1.5% during that period. The state’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate held steady in July at 3.7%. The U.S. unemployment rate was 4.3%. “Minnesota is outperforming the rest of the country in a number of key economic measures, including the overall unemployment rate, labor force participation and employment-to-population ratio,” said DEED Commissioner Shawntera Hardy. “Nine of the state’s 11 industrial sectors are growing faster than the national average.” Education and health services led all sectors last month with a record gain of 8,400 jobs. Other sectors gaining jobs were leisure and hospitality (up 2,800), gov-
ernment (up 1,600), manufacturing (up 500), other services (up 400) and information (up 200). Logging and mining held steady. The following industries lost jobs in July: trade, transportation and services (down 2,600), professional and business services (down 1,500), financial activities (down 1,400) and construction (down 700). Ten of the state’s industrial sectors have gained jobs over the past year, led by education and health services (up 27,521). Other over-the-year job gains were posted by leisure and hospitality (up 13,250), construction (up 7,528), government (up 5,682), professional and business services (up 3,388), trade, transportation and utilities (up 3,186), manufacturing (up 2,931), other
Page 17
services (up 2,922), logging and mining (up 793) and information (up 72). Financial activities lost 572 jobs over the past year. In the Metropolitan Statistical Areas, all regions gained jobs in the past 12 months: Minneapolis-St. Paul MSA (up 2.7%), Duluth-Superior MSA (up 2.4%), Rochester MSA (up 1.%), St. Cloud MSA (up 1.8%) and Mankato MSA (up 1.7%). 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. DEED is the state’s principal economic development agency, promoting business recruitment, expansion and retention, workforce development, international trade and community development. For more details about the agency and its services, visit the DEED website or follow DEED on Twitter.

By Sgt. Troy Christianson Minnesota State Patrol Question: I have a question about the Minnesota State Patrol Blood Relays. R e c e n t l y, one was performed from the Troy H. twin cities to Christianson Red Wing, Minn. Why did it involve three patrol officers? I know this isn’t a great distance and have just been wondering what rules or regulations dictate how this is handled. Answer: The story you are referring to was recently shared on our Facebook page, but a number of years ago I provided a blood relay from Cannon Falls to Winona. The Minnesota State Patrol Printed with Soy ink is divided into eleven districts across the state. Each district has several stations that are assigned a number of troopers. Troopers Printedwill with occasionally transport the blood relay a great distance depending on how many troopers are working within the station and district Printed on recycled paper at that time. Troopers are often

busy with other calls for service (crashes, motorist assists, etc.), which may impact how the blood is transported. Time is crucial in these situations, so being familiar with the area is critical. Troopers working a specific district know the most efficient route to the hospital while troopers from outside the district may not. You can avoid a ticket — and a crash — if you simply

The FCJ reaches over 13,000 households each week.
Capital Investment Committee visits Fillmore County of the box. Young listed reasons to be involved including arts, economy, education, and preservation. The predesign work is done; “We are shovel ready.” DNR Fish Hatchery - Lanesboro Kent Lokkesmoe, director of capital investment for DNR, welcomed the committee noting that this is one of four cold water fish hatcheries in Minnesota. The hatchery infrastructure is old and in need of repair and upgrades. The ask for the hatchery is about $5 million to construct a new hatchery, office, residence, and nursery. This hatchery produces about 710,000 rainbow and brown trout annually. Pat Schmidt, who has very recently retired after 41 years with the hatchery, said that fish raised here stock streams and lakes statewide. The hatchery raises 60% of the trout raised in Minnesota. The hatchery gets a lot of visitors including school groups. Reconstruction should take care of flooding issues. In 2013 the office was flooded with over a foot of water. A new structure would be raised three feet higher. Schmidt described issues with the super saturation of water with nitrogen gas. To decrease this the water is aerated, which releases radon gas, a safety hazard. They need funds to build a stripping station outside to get rid of nitrogen gas and radon. The office was built in 1954 and is very energy inefficient. I-beams that hold up the nursery ceiling are rusting through. Schmidt called attention to the red lights. The fish feed mostly during dusk to dawn conditions and the red lighting
simulates those conditions. Black tanks were found to calm fish down compared to white tanks. Mortality was greatly reduced with the dark tanks. The nursery building would need to be replaced after March and be completed by November. The hatchery is located where it is because of the natural spring water which remains at 48 degrees Fahrenheit year round. The spring is covered to maintain bio-security. This structure is also failing. Harmony and Preston Trails The committee met at Niagara Cave where there is an effort to extend the existing trail from Harmony to Niagara Cave to the Iowa border. This step could lead to a link of the existing Harmony-Preston Valley Trail to the Northeast Iowa trail system. Local residents were present in support of the trail extension. Chris Giesen, Harmony EDA coordinator, introduced EDA president Chris Skaalen. Skaalen explained all the land options are in place, making it a shovel ready project. Now, we need the funding for it. The Minnesota DNR estimates the six mile extension will cost $1.5 million. The options to purchase the land expire in 2019. Mark Bishop, whose family owns the cave, said the cave is on track to become a National Landmark. In a USA Today Readers’ Choice “Best Cave in USA” survey, Niagara Cave was ranked second. The cave has drawn 30,000 visitors in a year. Visitors have come from all 50 states and 60 to 80 countries. Bishop thanked the landowners, noting they are the ones that make the trail possible.
Jason Passmore, a CEDA employee for Howard County in Iowa, said there is a 22-mile paved trail from Cresco to Calmar. We want to connect on to it. The cross border trail system could be beneficial for the tourist economy in both states. Preston City Administrator Joe Hoffman asked the committee to consider funding a shovel ready trail from Preston to Carimona. Craig Blommer, an area supervisor for the DNR, has said the Preston to Forestville segment will be the most scenic part of the Blufflands trail system. The state already owns the land for the segment of the trail to Carimona. The legislature has already invested about a million putting in two bridges and a portion of the trail which ends outside of Preston (about 20% of this segment of the trail). Hoffman stated it will cost about $5 million to extend the trail to Carimona. Preston Chamber of Commerce and Tourism Director Gabby Kinneberg maintained extending the trail would be a huge benefit to Preston tourism. The tourism industry has brought $20 million to Fillmore County. Dwight Luhmann called the trail a huge asset to the community. Steve Corson added that his family wouldn’t have invested in housing in Preston without the trail. Dan Christianson suggested the trail really helped the economy in Lanesboro during the agricultural crisis in the ‘80s. He suggested the return on investment by extending the trail would be tremendous. Rep. Davids thanked the bonding committee. He said the Harmony extension is ready to go and can hook up with Iowa, Preston expansion is shovel ready, and everything is in place legislatively.
Lanesboro moves ahead with Park Road project
The old siren will be moved from the BP to the top of the hill. As the new siren will be loud, it will only be used for severe weather warnings or incidents where all volunteers are needed instead of for every ambulance and fire call. Tests will continue to be held on the first Wednesday of every month. A concern was brought to Peterson about property owners using the parking spaces next to the bike trail, which takes them away from visitors. Mayor Autumn Johnson asked Manion to put together an ordinance restricting commercial parking in those spots and present it at the October meeting. The council approved Phil Dybing’s application to join the
EDA board. “I am respectfully asking for a leave of absence from my three commissions until January 2018,” Resseman requested. He wished to retain his positions during his leave of absence. The council approved his request. “It was brought to my attention that we don’t have a policy regarding keys and access to the city building.” Peterson pointed out. She suggested having volunteers sign out keys on a temporary basis. The change would exclude emergency personnel. The council approved the policy. The next Lanesboro City Council meeting will be held on October 2 at 5:30 p.m.
Iowa CEDA representative Jason Passmore, Chatfield and Harmony EDA coordinator Chris Giesen, and Niagara Cave owner Mark Bishop discuss the Harmony-Preston Trails project. Photo by Karen Reisner By Karen Reisner Rep. Greg Davids invited members of the House Capital Investment Committee (bonding committee) to Fillmore County to learn about capital projects in the county. The committee made three stops during their September 6 tour, including the Chatfield Center for the Arts in Chatfield, the DNR Fish Hatchery near Lanesboro, and Niagara Cave south of Harmony. Center for the Arts F. Mike Tuohy asked the committee, while standing on the auditorium stage, to take a look at what we have done over the last nine years. City Clerk Joel Young reviewed the work accomplished during Phase I which was substantially completed a year ago. Over $5.3 million of state funds were used for Phase I. Much of that work included necessary updates to systems that are not visible to the public including the electrical and HVAC systems.
By Hannah Wingert After the bid for the Park Road project in Lanesboro came in higher than anticipated at $350,000, City Engineer Brian Malm was able to work with the contractor to reduce the total project costs. He presented the changes to the original bid to the Lanesboro City Council at their September 5 meeting. By reducing the pavement thickness by ½ inch, changing from sod to seed, and lowering the amount of full re-construct areas in the project, the cost was able to be brought down to $305,000. Malm recommended that the council approve the original bid amount of $350,000 and then pass a motion allowing the changes to the project. Both motions were approved. The Lanesboro School has agreed to pay up to $85,000 for the project, as the road is used for school purposes and requested the option to pay annually with assessments, which the council agreed to do. The council approved pay request #3 in the amount of $99,520.10 for the Auburn/Zenith project on Malm’s recommendation. “The end of September is the completion date,” Malm said about the project, noting that it is moving along. Several of the homeowners on Circle Drive have signed a waiver agreeing to extra assessments to
Michael Martin said to the committee, “We spent a lot of your money, but we spent it well.” He said Phase I turned out magnificent, noting the incredible acoustics in the auditorium. We have a long way to go. We are asking for $7.895 million to complete the development of the Center for the Arts. Plans for Phase II include a lobby space to accommodate 700 people, a connecting space between the two buildings. The plan is for a two story atrium, a glass entry on both sides, Main St. and Twiford St. Also, there are plans for additional restrooms on the second floor. There is to be a box office and concession stand in the lobby area. Jenni Peterson-Brant and her husband Eric envision use of space in the 1916 school building for activities and projects that can bring the community together. They encourage thinking outside
have their water hook-ups fixed during the street project. Malm pointed out that the residents’ participation was completely voluntary. The council revisited the matter of the proposed Pleasant/Sheridan Alley project. The bid for the project came in at $172,000 which was higher han expected. Malm thought that the tight quarters could explain why the bids came in high. Council member Jason Resseman suggested delaying the project as the city already has the Park Road and the Auburn/Zenith projects going. Malm noted that inflation would drive the bid amount up each year. Council member Marge Drake, who has property bordering the alley pointed out that something needed to be done as the alley, is in very poor condition. The council passed a motion to delay the project with Drake abstaining from the vote. City Maintenance Director Andy Drake informed the council that both the old and new brush dumps will be burned soon. Even though a sign was put up and the gate locked at the old brush dump, people are still dumping there. The council reviewed Ordinance 31.70 regarding the Public Utilities Commission which had been updated by the city attorney
Thomas Manion. Council member Tom Smith asked that some of the wording and language be changed. The council tabled the approval of the ordinance until Manion can amend it. City Administrator Michele Peterson mentioned that the city had received several inquiries about the ownership of North Valley Drive and Cedar Cliff Road. She had been under the impression that they were city roads, but upon investigation found that they were actually private property. She was told that the city had formed an agreement with the property owners regarding maintenance, but was unable to find paperwork attesting to that. She will be working with the property owners to get the expectations and responsibilities of the City of Lanesboro and the homeowners on paper. Peterson requested and was granted permission from the council to attend the League of Minnesota Cities Regional Meeting that will be held in Pine Island this fall. The council approved a motion to purchase a new siren from Federal Signal. Norman’s Electric from Rushford will install it near the old well, and Ancom will complete the programming.
