According to city estimates, t he cit y wou ld pay ab out $110,000 for installation of the levee or FEMA would pay roughly 75 percent, or $110,000, toward the installation and demolition of the levee.

The situation elicited some spirited response from Carver councilors at their June 20 meeting.

“It seems crazy to tear it down,” said Mayor Greg Osterdyk.

“It’s incong ruous,” said Councilor Mike Webb.

arver may not keep its raised levee after all.

This spring, the National Weather Service predicted a flood echoing the 1965 disaster that engulfed downtown Carver.

To ward off the rising Minnesota River, Carver added about 2-1/2 feet to its levee.

Cold and dry temps tempered the flood, and the river never climbed to challenge the newly elevated levee.

However, with an eye to the

future, the council wants to keep two large portions of the levee intact to protect against future flooding.

Not so fast, say Federal E m e r g e n c y M a n a g e m e nt Agency officials.

The city built the levee using its own funds, with the belief that it would be reimbursed three-quarters of the cost by FEMA. However, FEMA will only reimburse the city if the project is temporary.

So, FEMA will pay for 75 percent of the installation and demolition of the temporary levee if it comes down. Or, the city will pay the entire cost of

Fireworks light up Round Lake Park every Fourth of July in Eden Prairie.

He’s gonna let it shine Local resident is expert in pyrotechnics

BY KARLA WENNERSTROM editor@edenprairienews.com

Kent Orwoll, of Chaska, is seeing a pattern this year, and area residents can expect to see it too.

Fireworks viewers will see a variety of “the ones that make the shapes in the sky,” he said of pattern shells that are gaining in

popularity.

Orwoll is a partner at R ES Specialty Pyrotechnics in Belle Plaine, with Steve Coman and Ed Vanasek of Belle Plaine.

Fireworks displays change every year, to keep it interesting, he said. And, of Eden Prairie’s fireworks display at 10 p.m. Monday, July 4, he said: “There’s a really big fi nale planned.”

According to the business website, “Fireworks are a truly exciting art form, requiring creativity, skill and safety. RES Specialty Pyrotechnics creates that excitement by combining our talents and

experience while keeping safety in the forefront.”

The business has produced shows for local cities – including Eden Prairie, Minnetonka and Savage. It also has done work for the Minnesota Twins and Vikings – as well as shows around the world.

In addition, they make theatrical pyrotechnics for indoor use.

“Chances are, if you’ve been to a concert, sporting event or theme park recently, you’ve seen our product in action,” they say.

“It seems like such a waste of money,” said Councilor Cindy Monroe.

However, FEMA doesn’t pay for permanent levees.

“The only permanent measures FEMA grants cover are facilities that were damaged by the disaster,” explained Marquita Hynes, FEMA external affairs officer. The measure is required by the Stafford Act, passed in 1988.

“The addition to the levee was not a repair back to predisaster condition, since the addition was not there before the event,” she said.

The city has until Nov. 10, six months from the May 10 emergency declaration, to take it down and get reimbursed, according to Mayor Osterdyk.

“The process makes no sense.

We’re looking at potentially saving FEMA some of those dollars by keeping protections of the levee up so that they won’t have to remove them and pay the additional expense,” Osterdyk said. “And they wouldn’t have to pay to rebuild it whenever the next flood event is.”

“We’re ultimately trying to do this in the most costeffective manner. We’re not trying to play any games here,” Osterdyk said.

“It’s one of those inefficiencies of government,” Councilor Webb said. “I just don’t want to tear it down to make a check balance fit in a column it needs to fit in, when it’s just a waste of money.”

The entire levee cost $160,000 to $175,000 to install, estimated City Administrator Brent Mareck. The city of Carver has already removed a majority of the levee – including the portion that includes a trail (see graphic). FEMA will reimburse the city for this section, Mareck said.

However, the city wants to keep most of the elevated levee that keeps Spring Creek from backing up into downtown, as well as the levee that follows the railroad tracks out of town.

“It just doesn’t seem like a good investment to place all that material there and take it down, with the possibility of it having to be placed again next year and the year after, and keep doing that,” Mareck said.

“My assu mption is t hat they’re trying to prevent a community from overbuilding – basically using FEMA to pay for flood protection,” Mareck said. “It’s not something where we’re trying to take advantage of the system.”

“There is a fine line between collection and clutter,” he deadpans. “I might be getting close to that line.

“These are material things, but each one represents something that I fi nd interesting,” the Chaskan added.

For Brinkhous, each item is a story to be told. But perhaps no story he has is more compelling than the one about a boy born on the Fourth of July.

“It inspired most of my life,” he said of his birthday.

Brinkhous was born the eldest of two boys on July 4, 1941, to Carl and Geneva Brinkhous in the small town of Rushmore in southwestern Minnesota.

That same day, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt delivered a brief address marking the 165th anniversary of the country’s declaration of independence. Five months later, Japan would attack Pearl Harbor officially dragging the United States into the throes of World War II. Brinkhous says he came into the world proud to be an American. “It’s a feeling I was born with,” he said. And that feeling shaped much of his life, affecting everything from school subjects he was interested in to career paths to his cherished collections.

“I always was the guy that waved the fl ag harder than I had to,” he said.

Carver and FEMA officials are now meeting regularly and getting down to the “nitty gritty” of the issue, said Paul Schultz, Carver Public Works director.

“I think there’s an opportunity for the city and FEMA and our elected officials to put our heads together and say this obviously doesn’t make sense, let’s try and fi x this situation.

And maybe it will help other communities in the future, if we can make this right,” Mareck said.

U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar’s office had not heard from the city on the issue as of earlier this week.

If the city paid for the elevated levee, FEMA wouldn’t stand in the way of keeping it up. “FEMA does not make applicants take down levees.

“It seems crazy to tear it down.”

“It seemed like a good idea.”

Brinkhous joined the 503rd Airborne (later the 173rd Airborne Brigade) and was stationed in Okinawa. He said he loved jumping out of planes.

“At that height, nothing looks real.”

Brinkhous had planned to make the military his career until one of his jumps went awry.

“We landed in a muddy potato patch,” he recalled. “I knew something was wrong when I couldn’t walk.”

After three years with the A r my, Bri n k hous’s i nju r y sent him to the reserves where he would spend another three years before his military career came to its official end.

But it would be 40-some years before he would get the necessary surgeries to repair the damage to his knees.

Back in the United States, Brinkhous – now married and a father – found himself suffering from what is commonly referred to today as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. “I couldn’t get interested in anything,” he said.

Anything except American history, that is.

“I never lost my enthusiasm for American history,” said Brinkhous.

Eventually, he found a job with Control Data that offered him variety and the stability to support his wife and his four daughters.

Although his military career was over and a new career was on the horizon, Brinkhous held fast to his patriotism. “If anything, [serving in the military] enhanced it,” he said.

ARMY

FLAGS

In school, Brinkhous developed what would become a life-long interest in American History – specifically the Civil War – after reading an article about the 1st Minnesota Voluntary Infantry at Gettysburg. At 13, he purchased the fi rst piece of his collection – a glass case displaying confederate money.

In 1961, during the early stages of U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, Brinkhous enlisted in the Army, determined to become a paratrooper.

“I was 20 years old,” he said.

After 17 years together, Brinkhous’ first marriage ended. In 1985, he married Connie Kerkow and the two moved to Chaska.

A round that same time, Brinkhous heeded a call for volunteers at Murphy’s Landing (now The Landing) in Shakopee.

The opportunity put his love for American history to good use.

“I thought ‘I’m gonna try it’ and began putting together my Army costume,” he recalled.

Before long, Brinkhous was a regular interpreter, taking up residence at the Martin House.

It was there that he began a love affair with flags. “I started displaying flags,” he said.

During his 12-year stint at Murphy’s Landing, Brinkhous started collecting all sorts of flags. When asked what it was about f lags that drew his attention, Brinkhous responded with a single word: beauty.

“It’s one of the most beautiful things ever created,” he expanded. “There’s a hot air balloon in flight, a fully rigged sailing ship, and the flag.”

Brinkhous’ first f lag purchase was a replica Alamo flag circa 1854 from the Mall of America. It cost him $7.

“That was like eating one potato chip,” he laughed.

Today, Brinkhous has 55 f lags, banners and guidons (with four more on order). Most are attached to shower curtain rings and displayed on a long rod in his history room.

“I have a flag from every era of American history,” he said.

There are flags with 13 stars, with 23 stars, with 45 stars.

There are flags from the Mexican-American War era. There are flags from the Civil War era (including five different Confederate flags). And each has its own unique tale to tell.

“There are so many stories behind the designs,” he said.

“It’s not random.”

Brinkhous loves the chance to impart his wisdom on those flags and their designs on others.

“I have pretty much all the flags I need to tell a story,” he said. “Anything else would be frosting on the cake, gravy on potatoes.”

There are times at night when Brinkhous – widowed for the last three years – turns off the television and sits in quiet contemplation of the fl ags on the wall in front of him.

“I was a soldier, but I think I’m just as excited about the American flag as I ever was,” he said. It is a representation of the love of country he was born with 70 years ago.

“I feel privileged about being an American,” he said.

We’ve got problems, but we live in a country with some of the most freedoms in the world.”

Fun for the Fourth Chaska celebrates with multiple events Monday

BY MOLLEE FRANCISCO mfrancisco@swpub.com

Chaska is readying to celebrate another Independence Day in typical Chaska-style.

Monday begins with a host of family-friendly events sponsored by the Jonathan Association. First up is a 5K fun run.

Registration is 8 to 8:15 a.m. at the Early Childhood Center, 110600 Village Road, with the run/walk kicking off at 8:30 a.m. All participants will re-

ceive a free T-shirt.

Following the 5K, Jonathan will put on its annual Fourth of July kiddie parade. The two block parade begins at 11 a.m. and runs from the Jonathan General Store at 110690 Village Road to the Karen House at 111000 Bavaria Road. A fire truck and police escort will lead the parade. Kids are encouraged to dress up and decorate their ride (bikes, tricycles, wagons, etc.) with patriotic colors.

After the parade, a host of activities will be held at the Karen House starting at 11:15 a.m. There will be a petting zoon, pony rides, giant slide, moonwalk, magician, balloon artist, face painting, temporary tattoos and a watermelon

eating contest. Refreshments will be provided.

The day will wrap up at dusk with a fi reworks display over Jonathan Lake. The city spends about $10,000 annually on the display, with nearly half of the costs being covered by donations.

Chaska Assistant City Administrator Bart Fischer said the city often pays for the fi reworks by the fi rst of the year to secure the best deal.

“Keeping costs down enable us to keep the same level of display,” he said.

The best viewing for the show is from McKnight Park (next to Jonathan Elementary School), Chaska Commons or Jonathan Square.

GETTING A RUN ON FUN

SUBMITTED PHOTO COURTESY OF KELLY LAWRENTZ OF KEL-IMAGE PHOTOGRAPHY

Runners get started on the SayHey5K in downtown Chaska last Saturday morning. According to organizer Matthew Udermann, about 400 people registered for the race, which raised “just short” of $10,000. Profits will go toward preservation of Guardian Angels Catholic Church, which is undergoing a restoration of its brick exterior. “I think it was a great first-time race that hopefully we can build on and make it better,” said Mayor Mark Windschitl, who credited Udermann and all the volunteers for their work. Miguel Salinas won the race with a time of 21.30. “I can say that I really enjoyed the run,” Salinas said. “I definitely want to contribute to building that community of Chaska,” he said.

The Bountiful Basket Food Shel f, which closed its old location in Chaska on Friday, is reopening in the former Snyders Drug Store building on Tuesday, July 5, according to a CAP Agency press release.

The Snyders building is located on the southwest corner of County Road 61 and Highway 41 in downtown Chaska.

Snyders closed in early 2010, after being purchased by Walgreen Co., which had a location across the street.

As reported in last week’s Chaska Herald (“Chaska nonprofit to shut its doors”), the Scott Ca r ver Dakota Community Action Partnership Agency is closing its Carver County office in Chaska, and thus displacing its old food shelf location. The CAP Agency is closing this Friday (earlier reported to be June 24).

“Presently, we like most others are feeling the strain of the economy and as a result have deemed it necessary at this time to close our Chaska office,” stated Scott Carver Dakota CAP Agency Executive Director Carolina Bradpiece, in a press release. “As always, our priority remains to serve our clients as effectively as possible and ensure they have access to the programs and services our agency offers in all three counties we serve.”

Head Start; Bountiful Basket Food Shelf; Women, Infants & Children; Carver Health Families; and River Valley

Nursing Center were the programs and services offered at Chaska office.

Here are the future locations of other programs: The Head Start classroom located at the Chaska office will be moving to the Kindergarten Center located at 110600 Village Road, Chaska. This is located next to the current location of the Scott Carver Dakota CAP Agency Chaska office.

The Women, Infants & Children (WIC) program will be moving to East Creek Family Center at 303 East 6th Street, Chaska, which is part of the Carver-Scott Educational Cooperative. The first day WIC will begin serving clients at the new location is July 5.

Carver Healthy Families staff already had shared office space between the Chaska and Shakopee offices, so a permanent transfer to the Shakopee office will be made.

River Valley Nursing Center is seeking a new location within Carver County, but can still be accessed at the Shakopee location.

All other staff located in the Chaska office will be moving over to the Shakopee office, 712 Canterbury Road South.

Clients or community members with any additional questions should contact (952) 4962125.

EDITORIAL

Dammed if they do, damned if they don’t This past spring, the city of Carver placed about 2-1/2 feet of clay on top of an existing levee to protect its downtown against what was predicted to be a record flood.

Workers have removed some of the temporarily elevated levee, but the Carver City Council wants to keep a large portion of the structure in place to protect against future flooding.

Now here’s the “Dammed if they do, damned if they don’t” part: If the city keeps the levee up, it won’t receive reimbursement from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, because the structure will no longer be considered “temporary.” FEMA only pays for permanent structures if they replace or repair something damaged by the disaster.

However, (and here’s where you step through the federal government looking glass) if it is torn down, FEMA will pay for 75 percent of both the installation and the demolition of the structure.

So eit her Ca r ver pays about $110,000 if it stays, or FEMA pays about $110,000 if it’s removed.

Then, in future years, when the Minnesota River undoubtedly hits record f lood levels again, FEMA will presumably come in and pay to rebuild and remove the temporary levee.

In Watertown, the city faces a similar situation. It installed a levee to protect a water treatment plant from the rising Crow River. The Wa-

tertown council wants to keep it in place, but won’t be reimbursed.

This is the kind of situation that makes people rub their forehead and start saying choice words about government, ala Watertown Mayor K.J. McDonald: “It wouldn’t make any sense for us to tear it down just to get reimbursed when we’d have to put it up [again]. It’s typically nonsensical stupid federal rulings as most anything the federal bureaucrats try to do when they run local government.”

No doubt there was some kind of rationale for the rule – perhaps abuse of disaster relief funds for pork projects.

However, nothing could be further from the truth here. Carver needed to add height to its inadequate levee, which hasn’t been certified by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

Understandably, the raised levee is a temporary solution.

Carver ultimately needs a Corpscertified levee. One that doesn’t require handwringing and sandbags every spring. One that protects the history and heart of Carver as the city expands up the hill.

In this economy, that probably won’t happen any time soon.

Meanwhile, FEMA should reimburse Carver to keep the levee portions intact. It will save FEMA the cost of demolition, as well as the cost to rebuild it during the next flood.

That’s common sense government.

Battling the big ‘P’ One of the most common nutrients necessary for plant growth is phosphorus, but too much of a nutrient like phosphorus in lake water causes algae blooms.

There are two ways in which phosphorus can get into lake waters – external and internal.

External sources of phosphorus include storm water runoff carrying leaves, grass clippings, fertilizers, pet/livestock/wildlife waste, failed septic systems and waste water treatment plants.

The internal source of phosphorus comes from the nutrientrich sediments at the bottom of the lake which release phosphorus into the water above. The Carver County Water Management Organization (CCWMO) has two projects coming up to reduce large volumes of both external and internal phosphorus in our waters. Both projects use phosphorus reducing methods not yet used in the county before now.

The first project deals with the internal ‘P’ source. In June 2011, the CCWMO will be doing the first ALUM treatment on Burandt Lake in Waconia. ALUM (aluminum sulfate) is a nontoxic material commonly used in water treatment plants to clarify drinking water. In lakes, ALUM is used to reduce the amount of internal phosphorus in the water, thus improving water clarity and reducing algae blooms.

When in water, ALUM forms a fluffy hydroxide precipitate (principle ingredient in common antacids like Maalox) called floc which binds to phosphate and forms a compound that’s insoluble in water, thus removing phosphorus from the water. The floc then settles to the lake bottom forming a barrier by combining with the phosphorus being release from the lake bed.

The floc disappears over time, but phosphorus remains locked up in the soil or used by plants. One of the many benefits ALUM provides is the ability for native plants to be reestablished in the lake, thus improving water clarity, fish habitat and reducing invasive weeds.

The second project is the addition of iron filings to the soils at the bottom of bio-retention basins (like rain gardens). Iron filings are exactly what they sound like – small, shavings of iron. Mixed in with the soil during construction of the basin they can add greatly to its

Madeline

SEVELAND LAND AND WATER SERVICES

“It is important that we all share the responsibility of reducing the amount of phosphorus.”

Madeline Seveland Land and Water Services ability to remove phosphorus.

Studies done by the University of Minnesota St. Anthony Falls Laboratory have shown that soils alone in these basins remove some, but not a lot, of the phosphorus from water passing through. But with the addition of iron fillings (only making up only 5 percent of the total soil volume), these soils can remove 80 percent of the phosphorus coming through the system.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR EDUCATION

Tell reps about value of education “An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest” – Ben Franklin.

I am a teacher. I became a teacher because so many teachers inspired me during my childhood. The tools they gave me, along with a shared love of learning opened the whole world to me. I love sharing that excitement with others, inspiring them to love learning too. I felt called into this profession even while knowing that it isn’t always valued – either by respect or pay.

I awoke this morning from a bad dream. In my dream I was at school.

It was filled with people from the community who had come there for refuge and to protect the children. We were under attack, unlike anything we had experienced in our lifetimes.

Helicopters were overhead fi ring at the school. People were dazed. No one understood why this was happening. I saw bombs falling on the playground wounding the adults who were outside.

Several of us were at a table discussing what to do in this crisis and someone said, “We must call our legislators and tell them what is happening.” Just then a hailstorm of bullets rained down on the roof and we dove under the tables for protection.

At that point we realized that the legislators knew what was happening.

They were not interested in stopping the attack. A number of them had arranged for this to happen.

Though I was able to wake from this bad dream, I thought it important to share because, as our school district loses colleague after colleague in never-ending budget cuts,

and we see legislators wash their hands of responsibility in the looming government shutdown, it feels to many as though the very foundation of our society is under attack.

While other nations like India and China are investing in education, many Minnesotans seem resigned to a future where budget cuts rule, yet it doesn’t have to be that way.

When I began teaching in 1984, Minnesota’s education system was respected across the nation. Everyone understood that when schools were healthy and strong, so was our economy. Now, teachers are heroically trying to give the same quality of education to students without enough basics in the classrooms: textbooks, desks, paper, or classroom support.

I’ve known teachers to schedule a day off in order to spend the entire day at school working on a special project, without payment. Most of them have had no salary increase in years. Some work with no benefits. Is this the Minnesota we want to pass along to our children?

Unless families speak up and tell their representatives they value a high standard of education, our children, for the first time in history, will receive less education than their parents did.

That will be a nightmare from which it will be difficult to wake.

LEGISLATURE

Are journalists idiots or part of the problem?

I am flabbergasted. How can the people really understand what is going on with our state’s finances when the simple numbers are rarely if ever presented to people in a straight

forward way.

We’ll, I stumbled upon them and you might be very surprised when you see them. In fact, it makes you wonder if the news organizations are filled with journalists or people advocating an agenda.

After all, it’s pretty clear what the problem is when you look at the numbers.

2010-11 2012-13 %Increase Revenues $30.493 bil $32.004 bil 4.95 Spending $30.266 bil $38.951 bil 28.7

Gov. Dayton wants to spend 28.7 percent more in the next biennium than the last biennium! That was 28.7 percent, not 2.87 percent. 28.7 percent! Are these people crazy?

Where the hell is Pat Kessler, the so-called watchdog of government?

Why doesn’t anyone seem to know this? Are journalists idiots or part of the problem.

Frankly, the government did shift some state aid to counties, municipalities and school districts into the next biennium. So what … it wasn’t $6 billion worth. And frankly, those local government units should just suck it up and lay a few people off.

Employers all over the country have been doing that, not just this down turn, but in recessions past as well.

Does Chaska need government employees – receiving full pensions in the future – to read our electric meters?

I’m sure they are nice people, but they should start a company and do that as a private contractor. Government has no business doing luxurious things already offered by the private sector.

As for the state budget, rational people would say in this economy a 5 percent increase in spending – in line with the projected 5 percent increase in forecasted revenues – is more than enough. I sure do.

Purple Martin Heaven

BY GORDON STEWART

On my morning walks with our dogs, Maggie and Sebastian, along the trails through the Jonathan Association woods, we come rather suddenly into a huge open space of green grass tufts, bordered by a gently sloping hill called “The Sledding Hill.” The field is to our left. To the right side of the walking trail is a private home with clusters of Purple Martin houses – lots of them, each labeled by number, 30 feet above the ground – and a sign in the yard that reads “Purple Martin Place.”

The day is cool and sunny; the trail has been shaded by huge oaks, elms, and ash trees, the path shimmering with light and shadow until we come out of the shadows to the sight of the Purple Martin houses – “in my father’s house are many mansions” – and

From their Purple Martin heaven The Purple Martins swoon and swoop Across the green grass field shimmering In early morning light cooled by the breeze A Purple Martin chorus chants its antiphons En masse above the green grass

Standoff in the checkout lane The other day, I was in line at the grocery store and saw a woman with a child cut in front of a man who was in line. When the man politely pointed out the woman’s inconsiderate behavior, the woman stated that she had the right to cut in front of her because he wasn’t paying attention. The argument ensued, and neither side was willing to back down.

What I found interesting about this, besides that two grown adults were arguing about “cuts” in a grocery store, was that both refused to back down because it was a “matter of principle” from their own individual perspectives.

Principles at their core are a good thing. A principle is generally defined as a “rule or law that can be used as basis for reasoning or conduct.” Principles help to guide us day-to-day in areas of etiquette, ethics, and morality.

Laws are built around these generally accepted principles.

For example, one principle that most of us generally agree on is that killing another human being is immoral. The store manager at Rainbow isn’t allowed to kill someone because they lifted a bag of Cheetos. Nor can a police officer shoot to kill because you were speeding. So, because of this, someone decided to write a law making it illegal to kill someone.

So, if this is sounding like a college philosophy class, maybe its time to visit our old friend, Plato: “Laws are partly formed for the sake of good men, in order to instruct them how they

Mike

HUANG COMMUNITY COLUMNIST

may live on friendly terms with one another, and partly for the sake of those who refuse to be instructed, whose spirit cannot be subdued, or softened, or hindered from plunging into evil.”

In the big scheme of things, laws are here to help good people live their lives and to create “borders” for those might have more nefarious intentions. In essence, laws, themselves are extensions of our core principles. But not every principled intention has a law. Sometimes there are community values – social etiquette – that come into play.

If a young lad is asking a girl out on a dinner date for the first time, she might ask him to suggest a place. Let’s assume that he makes good money and could afford a nice restaurant anywhere in the cities. Suggesting “Taco Bell” probably wouldn’t leave the desired impression, but it’s not (and shouldn’t be) illegal. Assuming he makes it on the first date, and things are going well (hopefully, he’s chosen something a little more upscale), they sit down to dinner, and the waiter comes

to take their order.

Some chivalrous young gentlemen might choose to order on behalf of the lady at the table, perhaps to impress her with his epicurean knowledge along with his dashing good looks. But, is he on the same page with her guiding principles of an independent, intelligent, well-educated young woman of the 2000s, who is his intellectual peer? This first date may be his last.

But we’re living in the United States – it’s a melting pot and some people don’t necessarily have the same set of principles. While we’re all subject to the same set of laws, there are things which the law cannot and should not preside over, just like in the restaurant scenario above.

For instance, if someone cuts to the front of the line in the supermarket, we believe that’s inconsiderate and just, plain rude. But it may be a matter of principle that the other person takes the first opportunity to jump at the open register because that’s what they were taught.

As an example, try boarding an airplane in India. Assigned seating or not, everyone is pushing and shoving their way to the front.

Japan is almost the polar opposite, extremely orderly and people are trained to help squeeze passengers into packed trains.

We might assume from our own community values that we’re on the same page as those around us, but this isn’t always the case.

So, when it comes to dayto-day things, a constructive conversation is always much

more successful when both parties are calm, collected, and talking rationally.

Emotion can sometimes cloud good judgment and can get in the way of having a meaningful conversation along with aggressive, condescending or passive-aggressive behavior.

There’s usually a good reason for a person’s actions. But fortunately, community values can be a good starting point to helping someone fit in where they may be a bit out of their element.

But when it comes to larger, more complex issues – that’s where things start to get sticky. At a high level, this is where we as a community need to identify what our blended community’s values are, and what the laws should be to govern the group. And sometimes this discussion can go on for years. Sometimes, the decision may change depending on political and population tides.

An acquaintance who works as a lobbyist at the Capitol once said, “If both sides are feeling like they got a little of what they wanted and they also didn’t get some of what they wanted, it was a good day.” Compromise doesn’t always feel like you won.

So, the next time you find yourself in an argument of principle – maybe in the supermarket – you can agree to disagree or perhaps, you can see if you can understand the other person’s perspective.

It may be an opportunity to educate, or maybe to compromise.

KLINE GUEST COMMENTARY

looking for work. Additionally, more than 2 million Americans who desperately want to work threw their hands in the air last month and gave up their job searches. Too many Americans have seen their spirits broken, their hopes dashed, and their dreams killed.

It didn’t have to be this way.

Unlike many in Washington, Americans know that small businesses, families, and entrepreneurs – not Congress – are the key to job creation. Accordingly, I was joined by House Republican colleagues recently in rolling out a broad agenda for America’s job creators that will help create jobs and get our economy back on track.

Our “Plan for America’s Job Creators” is based on the belief that free markets, free enterprise, innovation, and entrepreneurship are the foundation for economic growth and job creation in America. It addresses the economic challenges facing our nation, fosters innovation

and investment, and helps job creators without raising taxes on working families and small business owners.

Rather than spending money we don’t have for costly, short-term economic gimmicks or passing new jobkilling tax increases when we face the worst unemployment since the Great Depression, our plan restores confidence and certainty to the economy and creates jobs by: Empowering small business owners by reducing crushing regulatory burdens and red tape; Simplifying the tax code, lowering rates in a deficit neutral manner, and ensuring job creators will not face new, debilitating tax hikes; Promoting lower energy prices through increased domestic production; Increasing competitiveness for America by passing pending trade agreements; Encouraging entrepreneurship and growth by streamlining our broken patent system; and Bringing real certainty to job creators by ending Washington’s runaway spending and debt and putting on the path to balance the budget.

Throughout this summer, I look forward to hearing what constituents around the 2nd District think about the issues that matter most to them and how we can help workers and job creators.

In the coming weeks, I will host roundtable meetings

with small business owners and job creators, participate in public forums with civic and community leaders, and tour the plants and firms of Minnesota’s leading manufacturers.

Next month, I plan to lead an energy tour showing the rich diversity of energy sources right here in Minnesota that can help create jobs and increase America’s energy independence. Later this summer, I look forward to hosting a jobs fair that will provide direct assistance to men and women seeking employment to support themselves and their families.

I hope you will join me in believing it can be morning again in Minnesota and throughout our great country.

I look forward to an economic recovery in which more Minnesota men and women will go to work than ever before.

To see that sunrise, we must roll up our sleeves and remain committed to taking every possible step to spur job creation and enable Americans to do what they do best: create, innovate, and lead. Together, we can work to reclaim a prosperous future for all Americans and now is the time to make it happen.

In his fifth term in Congress, Congressman John Kline is the Chairman of the House Education and the Workforce Committee and also serves on the House Armed Services Committee. He represents Minnesota’s 2nd District, which includes Carver County.

We need jobs plan, not spending plan Vicky and I live in the 2nd District so I may be a little biased, but from the peaks of Barn Bluff overlooking the Mississippi River valley in historic Red Wing to the woodlands and wetlands of Carver County, this area is home to some of Minnesota’s most scenic views. Unfortunately, the view from the main streets in our communities leaves something to be desired.

While it is far from exclusive to the 2nd district or even the state of Minnesota, the sight of an empty storefront or vacant manufacturing plant is an eyesore visually and metaphorically. As unpleasant as the weeds defiantly sprouting through cracks and crevices of a parking lot that once held the vehicles of ambitious workers, it also serves as a painful reminder that unemployment remains above 9 percent nationwide.

Last month marked the 28th consecutive month of unemployment at or above 8 percent – the level the president said unemployment would never reach if his stimulus became law. The so-called stimulus was based on the belief that in order to create jobs, you have to spend billions, if not trillions, of taxpayer dollars. When Americans needed a jobs plan, the president instead offered a spending plan.

Now, in the wake of the stimulus that became law in February 2009, nearly 14 million unemployed Americans are

STARWATCH

During July, Saturn rules the evening sky

BY DEANE MORRISON

All planets are wanderers in the night sky — in fact, the very word “planet” comes from the Greek for “wanderer”—and in July the wanderer of the month is Mars. A “morning star” best seen about two hours before sunrise, the Red Planet glides through the stars of Taurus above the eastnortheastern horizon.

As the month opens, Mars appears just above the V-shaped Hyades star cluster and Aldebaran (the eye of the bull) and below the Pleiades cluster. On the mornings of the 25th and 26th, Mars, having moved steadily eastward among its starry companions, sails between the points of the bull’s horns.

If you can get up two hours before daybreak just once in July, do it on the 27th, when a waning crescent moon shines very close to Mars.

Saturn still rules the evening sky this month. A

beacon in the southwest, it gleams to the upper right of the bright star Spica in Virgo.

This is a good time to see its rings through a telescope because from our perspective Saturn is close to 90 degrees from the sun, an especially good position for the rings and globe to cast shadows that enhance its 3-D appearance.

Jupiter rises just before 2 a.m. on the 1st, but by the end of the month it starts appearing before midnight.

Its bright yellowish globe will be well up in the southeast at dawn.

During the prime viewing hours of late evening, you’ll see kite-shaped Bootes, the herdsman, high in the west.

East of Bootes come, in order, Corona Borealis, the Northern Crown; upside-down Hercules; the brilliant star Vega, in Lyra, the lyre; and lovely Deneb in Cygnus, the swan. South of Vega and Deneb shines Altair, the brightest star in Aquila, the eagle. Together, these

three stars are known as the Summer Triangle.

The full buck moon lights up the night of the 14th15th. Its name comes from the velvety new antlers now sprouting on male deer.

Algonquin Indians also called it the full thunder moon, in recognition of July’s frequent thunderstorms.

Earth reaches aphelion, its farthest point from the sun, at 9:55 a.m. on the 4th. At that moment we’ll be 94.5 million miles from our parent star.

While we’re celebrating our national holiday, we can contemplate the fact that our planet follows an elliptical orbit, moving faster as we swoop closer to the sun and slowing down as our gravitational leash gets stretched. Earth’s slower speed near the time of aphelion means that we spend more days of the year in this part of our orbit, where the sun is north of the equator.

To see how this is true, count

the days from the March to the September equinox; you’ll see there are more days than if you count from the September to the March equinox.

If you’d like a first-person introduction to the night sky, check out the University of Minnesota Department of Astronomy’s summer Universe in the Park program.

Each event features a short public talk and slide show by a University astronomer and, if weather permits, viewing the night sky through multiple 8-inch telescopes.

The program runs through Aug. 27 this year in Minnesota state parks. For more information and a schedule, visit www.astro.umn.edu/ outreach/uitp/ or contact Karl Isensee at isensee@astro.umn. edu or (612) 626-1841.

Services held for Mt. Olivet senior pastor

He is ready for takeoff

More than 6 ,0 0 0 p e ople attended last Friday’s funeral services for the Rev. Paul M. Youngdahl, senior pastor at Mt. Olivet Lutheran Church in Rev. Paul M. Minneapolis Youngdahl and Mt. Olivet West Campus, Victoria.

You ngda h l, 73, died u nexpectedly from an existing thoracic aneurysm at North Memorial Hospital on Monday, June 20.

Youngdahl was an associate pastor for nearly six years before he was ca l led to be senior pastor of Mount Olivet in 1974.

Under his leadership, Mount Olivet maintained its position as the largest Lutheran church in America with more than 13,000 baptized members.

You n gd a h l wa s t he longest ser vi ng senior pastor at Mount Olivet Church. His f at h e r, R e ub e nYou n g d a h l (1911-1968), served as the senior pastor of Mount Olivet for 30 years.

Now, nearing 65, he heads to Chaska and Guardian AnDouglas gels.

Ebert “I’m excited to become part of the community,” he said.

“I enjoy working with people,” he added. “I like people.”

THE CALL

BY MOLLEE FRANCISCO mfrancisco@swpub.com

As a 3 0 -yea r veteran of the airline industry, the Rev. Douglas Ebert knows all about getting people to their destination. And not much has changed since he transitioned into the priesthood three years ago.

“I’m still in the transportation business,” he said. “It’s just a different plane.”

Ebert will take over the reins at Guardian Angels Catholic Church tomorrow as the Rev. Paul Jarvis is reassigned to Rosemount to be closer to his aging parents.

After working for three decades as a pilot for American Airlines, Ebert opted to take early retirement in 2003 and applied to enter seminary.

“That’s called ‘The call,’” he said. “It was something I had fought all my life.”

At the time, Ebert was 57 years old. He is the second consecutive pastor at Guardian Angels to come to the career late in life. Jarvis left a job in marketing to enter seminary in his 40s.

Ebert said he faced some resistance trying to get into seminary with more than five decades of life under his belt, but remained determined to heed the call. “Going back to school at 57 is a challenging thing,” he said. “I just put it into God’s

FIRST IMPRESSIONS Ebert’s fi rst impression of the church was positive. “I like old churches,” he said. “And this is a beautiful facility.”

He was also favorably impressed with Chaska.

“I grew up in St. Paul,” said Ebert. “I get the same feel of

community.”

Ebert will have some big shoes to fi ll, as he takes over for Jarvis who brought new energy to the church and labored to extend his reach beyond Gua rdia n A ngel’s Chaska brick walls and into the greater community.

“I want to help people get to their destination,” said Ebert. “I want to continue the work – bringing people to the faith.”

In his free time, Ebert enjoys playing guitar (mostly contemporary music) and retains an interest in the transportation business.

He developed a love for the railroad which working on a Great Northern dining car in college. Not long after, he bought his fi rst railroad passenger car and he now lists renovating such cars as one of his hobbies.

Chaska Police Officer Chris George, liaison to the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics, holds the torch during the Law Enforcement Torch Run Final Leg Event last week. The event included Chaska officers, Chaska Police Explorers, members of the Carver County Attorney’s Office, and residents.

Mounted posse takes home awards Carver County Sheriff Jim Olson reports that on May 12-15, the Carver County Sheri f f ’s Of fice Mounted Posse participated in a training and competition in Wadena.

The Carver County Sheriff’s Office Posse won the following awards: first place in parades; first place in overall performance; fi rst place in team obstacle competition; second place in team obstacle competition.

Jean Fredlund took home first place in equitation, second place in advanced individual, fifth place in horsemanship and sixth place in fleeing felon.

Becky Scott received first place in horsemanship and fourth place in basic individual equitation. June Hilgers won second place in basic individual obstacle.

T he se c omp et it ion s a re based on horsemanship and the functions that posse members do to assist the sheriff’s office.

“We are very proud of our posse and the work they do for the citizens of Carver County,” said Olson.

“Our posse members work very hard with their horses to provide the best service to our citizens and this is demonstrated by the wonderful performance they did at this event,” added Posse Liaison Lieutenant Dave Williams.

July crackdown on speeders I n Ju ly, C a r ver C ou nt y motorists will face enhanced speed enforcement patrols as part of a statewide campaign coordinated by the Minnesota Department of Public Safety Office of Traffic Safety.

Members of Carver County Sheriff ’s Office Mounted Posse (left to right) June Hilgers, Jean Fredlund, Emily Boote, Becky Scott, Judy Clasen and Mary Novakowski, competed in a horse clinic in May. In Carver County, an average speeding citation for 10 mph over the limit is $130. Motorists stopped at 20 mph over the speed limit face double the fine, and those ticketed traveling more than 100 mph can lose their license for six months, according to a press release from the Carver County Sheriff’s Office.

Speed is the most commonly reported contributing factor in fatal crashes. During 2007–2009, speed was a contributing factor in seven fatalities in Carver County and 325 traffic deaths statewide.

“It’s unfortunate that many drivers don’t recognize speeding as a serious safety issue,” said Sheriff Jim Olson. “When your speed increases, so does the risk for a violent crash, as does your risk of a ticket.”

The Carver County Sheriff’s Office cites the dangers of speeding include greater potential for loss of vehicle control; increased stopping distance; less time available for driver response for crash avoidance; and increased crash severity leading to more numerous and severe injuries.

Another safety concern is the

record-high number of motorcyclists on the road. Olson says a major factor in rider deaths are unsafe speeds — more than half of all motorcycle crashes are single-vehicle events in which the rider loses control of the bike and runs off the road or crashes. He stresses for motorists to look twice for riders — especially at intersections — because motorcycles are smaller, their speeds and distance can be harder to gauge.

Emergency team graduates The Chaska Police Department Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) recently completed its fourth week of training in an eight week course, and graduated from the program on June 21, according to a police news release.

The team, consisting of 19 community members, including Neighborhood Watch captains, rental property managers and residents, will be a support team to the Police Department in natural disasters and also in city events.

Governor Pawlenty’s new legislation affects DWI offenders with certain aggravating factors. Currently Minnesota law states that a first time DWI offender with an alcohol-concentration of .20 or more is charged with a gross misdemeanor and loses their license for 180 days. The new legislation lowers the alcohol concentration to .16 or more which is twice the legal limit (.08). The license revocation period is extended to one year.

The same is true for a second time DWI offender regardless of their alcohol concentration, their license will be revoked for one year as opposed to 180 days

Minnesota DWI penalties are harsh and are only going to get more severe. If convicted, a DWI offender could face large fines and jail time. For over 10 years, Minnesota law makers have successfully fought to strengthen the penalties for DWI offenders. It goes without saying that a DWI charge is something that should be taken seriously and should be handled by consulting with an experienced Minnesoat DWI Attorney. Call Richard Swanson at (952) 448-9091 or, after hours at (612) 382-6080.

G.A. releases honor roll

FACING THE MUSIC

Effective July 1, 2011, new legislation passed by Governor Tim Pawlenty strengthens Minnesota DWI laws.

Under the new legislation a DWI offender that refuses to submit to a chemical test will lose their license for a period of two years as opposed to the current penalty of one year. The two year revocation period also applies to a second time DWI offender with an alcohol concentration of .16 or more. A person charged with their third DWI in ten years will lose their license for three years which is a leap from the current penalty of a one year cancellation of the driver’s license.

He was awarded the Dean’s Tuition Scholarship and Lyday Fellowship, which provide full tuition, a stipend and graduate assistantship for him to attend the Humphrey Institute in the fall to study public policy.

Joey is a lovely gray shorthair cat, about 2 years old, who was rescued from life on the street.

She is a really sweet, gentle girl with big green eyes and soft fur who loves to cuddle and purr!

Her favorite game is to play in the sink and swat the dripping water! Joey has had a complete wellness exam, has been spayed, microchipped, tested negative for Feline Leukemia/FIV, and is updated on vaccinations. Her adoption fee is $150.

FIREWORKS

Viewing tips

continued from page 1

Don’t get too close. Sitting at least 500 feet from the fireworks provides the best view of the show.

The products have been used in shows by Paul McCartney, Kiss, Poison, Metallica and Britney Spears, he said.

“We sell a product to the Chinese, believe it or not, to use it in Disneyland over at Hong Kong,” he added.

Watch for the quality and brightness of the colors. Deep blue and dazzling white are especially difficult to produce. Count the number of explosions in a shell. High-quality display shells may have multiple explosions that vary in color. There should be no lag time in a professional show. There should always be something going on for you to enjoy.

Resist the temptation to keep any leftover material you may find after a show. The professionals that put on the display will clean up all materials afterwards.

KEEPING IT INTERESTING

FILE PHOTO BY KARLA WENNERSTROM

Chaska resident and pyrotechnic expert Kent Orwoll, of RES, holds a Rainbow Palm Tree aerial shell before the Fourth of July display in Eden Prairie last year. The shells, which weigh about three pounds and are about six inches in diameter, have a lifting charge of black powder and a paper casing. They launch like a mortar 600 feet into the air, Orwell said, and some have a tail that burns on the way up.

Orwoll said that the key to adding an emotional element to the show is variety.

“You can’t keep everything at the same level throughout the show,” Orwoll said.

RES works to have times when the show slows down, then picks up again.

He said another interesting technique is to divide the show by types of shells, with slight differences.

Many shows are choreo graphed to music.

On the Fourth of July, you’ll see a patriotic theme, with a celebratory fi nale.

“It ends up being a really nice overall experience,” he said.

Source: American Pyrotechnics Association

PYROTECHNIC APPRENTICE profession work with a comRES employs about 20 people during the busy season. The name came from its original name, “Remote Effects Systems,” which was shortened to RES. RES will be putting on 10 to 12 shows near the Fourth of July, each with thousands of explosions.

How do you get into the fi reworks business?

Orwoll said that there’s an apprenticeship-type training, where those interested in the

pany that trains them.

“You’ve just got to have a real interest in it and keep after the people who are involved in it,” he said.

W hat’s Orwoll’s favorite part?

The finale and the individual patterned shells. “ T he ones t hat actua l ly make the faces in the sky, or the stars,” he said. “The ones that are the most popular get the biggest reaction from the crowd.”

LIONS ALL-STAR SERIES

Stars shine for Lions’ tourney

BY TIM MCGOVERN tmcgovern@swpub.com

eing selected as a Lions All-Star i s a c r ow n i n g achievement in a players’ prep career.

Eden Prairie coach Mike Hal loran, one of the three coaches on the West Metro squad, knows that this was not the time for tutelage.

“As a coach, my job was to stay out of the way,” Halloran said. “They can swing away on any count, steal at any time and bunt whenever they want.”

But at the same time, players cannot flaunt the fundamentals.

“I had to remind them,” he added, “that pro scouts and college coaches want to see good baseball.”

And the 37th Annual Minnesota Lions All Star Baseball Tournament had some very good baseball at Chanhassen on Friday and Saturday.

The West Metro capped the tournament with a 5 - 4 win over Metro East on Saturday evening.

Chaska’s Adam Happ provided what proved to be the game-winning hit, a two-run single that put West Metro up 5-0.

Happ earlier drew a walk off University of Arizona recruit and Minnesota Twins draftee Austin Malinowski of Centennial.

Happ’s team had a boost from the quartet of players from Eden Prairie, as Lance Thonvold sent a Malinowski pitch an estimated 400 feet over

H Holy Family’s Chris Knoll delivers to the South All-Stars on Saturday at the 37th A Annual Lions All Star Baseball Tournament at Chanhassen. West Metro fell 5-2 in that game, but won the other two games in the two-day classic.

Knoll slugged .640 for the season, and went 5-1 on the mound for the Fire, striking out 38 in 33 innings.

Knoll will be off to the University of North Dakota for

school and baseball.

West Metro tied North with a 2-1 tournament record, but prevailed in the tiebreaker with a 3-2 victory on Friday evening.

Though, just one victory would make the West Metro players’ tournament.

“From a West perspective,” Halloran said, “the tournament is a success if we beat East.”

AMATEUR BASEBALL

Cubs will surely make a refreshing return

Sign up for Chaska Volleyball, disc golf fastpitch softball at River City Days

BY TIM MCGOVERN tmcgovern@swpub.com

Food and baseball make a nice double play.

The Chaska Cubs amateur baseball team has some nice culinary connections going lately.

The team spent Friday and Saturday playing in the SpamTown Classic in Austin.

And when the club returns to Athletic Park tonight, there will be refreshments. No Spam, though.

Ryan Seifert served up some serious pitching in the SpamTown opener, as the Cubs shut out Owatonna 3-0 on Friday.

Seifert scattered four Aces singles – three of which came off the bat of Brandon Rolloff.

Seifert himself got the Cubs all the offense they needed with a two-run home run in the second inning.

Cory Glieden cracked a pair of doubles and scored on an Eric Duzan hit in the third.

Pete Ohnsorg and Greg Lane had hits for Chaska in the victory.

Minnetonka knocked out a dozen hits in a 5-1 victory in the fi rst of two SpamTown games on Saturday.

Glieden doubled Chaska’s only run in the third inning.

The Cubs’ SpamTown run

came to an end with a 5-1 setback to Prescott, Wis. on Saturday afternoon.

Chaska d rew si x wa l ks, but had only three hits – base knocks from Glieden, Cory Poppitz and Mitch Gerber.

Dundas defeated the Rochester Royals 5-3 on Sunday for the championship. Dundas beat the hometown Austin Greyhounds 6-4 in the semifi nsls and the Royals edged the Millers 7-5.

The Cubs resumed play with a 7-1 victory at Victoria on Tuesday night.

REFRESHMENTS Chaska, now 11-6 on the season, has a big game against Jordan, 7:30 p.m. tonight at home.

The weather forecast may call for triple-digit temperatures, but fans will not need to worry.

The newly refurbished concession stand will be open for the first time this season for the Cubs-Brewers matchup.

The Cubs get its last break of the season before hosting the St. Paul Captials on July 6. The team then is scheduled to play 13 games in 21 days.

RED BIRD UPDATE The Chanhassen Red Birds will be well-represented at AllStar time.

Three Red Birds players –

pitcher-catcher Justin Thompson, pitcher-outfielder Casey Malmgren and infielder John Gulden were selected to play in the annual River Valley League vs. Dakota-Rice-Scott League All-Star Game.

The game is set for Friday, July 8 at Union Hill, west of New Prague.

Chanhassen is 7-7 on the season after a 5-2 loss to Arlington at home on Sunday.

A’s starting pitcher Blake Henke tossed a six-hit game, and Scott Dose jump-started the of fense with a two-run homer in the fi rst inning.

Gulden got the Red Birds going with a solo homer in the fifth inning. Chanhassen starter Thompson struck out five, and walked five on the afternoon.

The Red Birds were to host Waconia on Thursday, but wet weather formed a pool around home plate and forced the cancellation of the game. Grounds crews dealt with the issue in advance of two busy days of the Lions All-Star Series on Friday and Saturday.

Chan plays at Fairfax, 7:30 p.m. tonight, and hosts New Ulm Kaiserhoff at 6 p.m. on Monday, July 4. The game is part of the city’s Fourth of July celebration, with fi reworks at Lake Ann Park at 10 p.m.

Purple martins are back after disaster For those of you who follow this column closely and have contacted me to express condolences about the story of the early demise of all 25 of my purple martin babies last summer, I have good news.

I am happy to announce that one year after the disaster, the martins are back, and they are having babies again.

My purple martin colony started about seven years ago when I put up an old beat-up metal martin house, apartment style, at my lake cabin. I was thrilled when two pair of martins took up residency in the very fi rst spring the house was up.

All that spring and summer I watched very closely the daily comings and goings of this largest member of the swallow family. I was thrilled to have my very own purple martin colony.

During the ensuing years my martin colony grew. Not a lot, just a little bit each year.

From two pair in the beginning to about eight pair last summer. Each morning I would be g reeted by the martin’s cheerful calls as they swooped into the old metal house. Everything was going great and it appeared that my martins were here to stay.

Last summer everything was going great. I had a record number of adult birds and they seemed to all be breeding. Doing my regular checks, I counted 25 healthy and happy babies.

The parents were bringing in large amounts of insects, particularly dragonf lies, to feed the young, which pro-

Stan

vided many hours of visual enjoyment for me. I was having thoughts of adding another complex of houses and expanding my colony to accommodate all these new family members.

However, disaster was about to strike in the form of a raccoon.

Or at least I think it was a raccoon. I never really saw the perpetrator.

Over three consecutive evenings last summer, one by one the baby martins were pulled from their nests and eaten. In the morning all I would fi nd was bits and pieces such as wings and tails at the base of the martin house. All the adults seemed to be accounted for and doing well. But now the adults had no reason to stick around.

I watched as the adults tried to fi gure out what was going on. They wanted to feed their babies, as they had been doing for nearly two weeks already, but when they showed up with a beak full of insects there were no tiny mouths to feed. Slowly, over a 10- to 15-day period, the adult martins stopped coming back to the colony. One of the nice things about having

Purple martins returned to a new bird house colony this spring after baby martins were killed by a predator last year. a purple martin colony is the birds spend much of the summer at the colony. Some other birds never come back once the babies leave the nest. Martins are home-bodies and they are very loyal to the colony and they return to the colony for much of the summer.

Last year I wrote about my martin predation and many readers responded with their own stories of disaster and suggestions of solutions to stop this from happening in the future. I

had also heard and read similar accounts of predation to martin colonies and it was suggested that once a predator has hit, the colony often doesn’t come back the following year. They simply abandon the colony.

As you can imagine, I was holding my breath all winter and spring wondering if my martins would return.

Heck, I even broke down and purchased a new eight-gourd colony kit and installed it late last winter. I really wanted

to make my martins feel at home when they arrived in the spring. More importantly, I installed raccoon guards on the poles. These are designed to stop a raccoon from climbing the pole and getting to the nestlings.

I was delighted when this spring the martins showed up and immediately accepted the new housing options along with the old housing and got down to having babies.

Now I have at least 15 pair

of martins and nesting is well under way. I think I may have dodged a natural bullet and I am looking forward to a summer fi lled with the calls of the purple martin.

Until next time...

The City Council shall have the exclusive power to order the issuance of variances from the requirements of any official control including restrictions placed on nonconformities.

Variances may be granted when the applicant for the variance establishes that there are practical difficulties in complying with the official control.

“Practical difficulties”, as used in connection with the granting of a variance, means that the property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by an official control; the plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner; and the variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.

Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties.

Practical difficulties include, but are not limited to, inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems. Variances shall be granted for earth sheltered construction as defined in section 216C.06, subdivision 14, of the Minnesota Statutes, when in harmony with the official controls.

No variance may be granted that would allow any use that is not allowed in the zoning district

in which the subject property is located. The City Council may impose conditions in the granting of variances. A condition must be directly related to and must bear a rough proportionality to the impact created by the variance.

Section II. Section 14.8.2 (Variance – Exhibits) of Ordinance 229 (Zoning Ordinance) Section III. Section 14.8.1.2 of Ordinance 229 (Zoning Ordinance) of Appeals and adjustments.
