New windows for the Hub of Jordan BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com
T
he historic Hub of Jordan building had new upstairs windows installed last week. The new glass, made possible in part by a $7,500 downtown revitalization grant from the city of Jordan, is only one of many updates for the building, owned by Kim and Linda Hanner.
Work on installing the historic-style and more energy efficient windows started Tuesday, Dec. 27 and continued through the week. Just to prepare for the windows, Kim had to replace 250-pound stone sills below the glass – 14 of them – a project he worked on over the summer. “It was a huge job,” Kim said. The windows had been in rough shape. Half of them had been missing before last week, he said.
“Very excited,” Kim said about the new windows. “It lets a lot of light in.” Mark Moonen, window installer with J&J Glass and Glazing, Inc., out of Delano, said the windows are tall, and that the building owners spent extra money to buy windows with an historic-looking grid pattern, instead of using only one piece of glass per window. The frames are also painted instead of anodized, which enhances the look.
“It costs the building owner a bit more but it looks better,” said Moonen, after stepping off a lift he stood on to do installation work. The windows should also save on the heating bill. The old ones had weights in them that allowed them to be opened without a herculean effort, a feature common in the past. But the weights, located in the sides, also needed open space to move, which was not energy efficient.

Jordan graduates return to share wisdom gleaned from moving on and growing up BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com
It’s one thing to hear a parent lecture about good decisions, and quite another to hear it from someone just a year or two older. Jordan High School seniors got a chance to hear about what college has been like for 13 graduates who returned home for a forum in their former high school on Dec. 22. “My experience so far: I’ve loved it,” said Matt Timmons, a firstyear student at Gustavus Adolphus College.

Sally Schultz is the newest member of the Jordan Planning Commission. “I’ve gotten a lot of heat” and “accusations from this board,” outgoing planning commissioner and Mayor Pete Ewals said as he tried to convince fellow members of the Jordan City Council that they should replace him on a commission that has caused what he can only describe as paranoia in his colleagues.

Annual Give Where You Live campaign runs through Jan. 31 The Scott Carver Dakota Community Action Partnership’s annual Give Where You Live campaign, with a goal of raising $1 million for the agency, ends Jan. 31. The Give Where You Live campaign has been the agency’s primary fund-raising mechanism for the past severa l years. This year, the CA P Agency is looking to gain momentum by taking
the campaign online through GiveMN.org, which is a fundraising tool where donors a re encou raged to “click, contribute, and change your world.� The CAP Agency is encouraging people to go online to make a donation. Those who prefer to not donate online can send checks to: CAP Agency, 712 Canterbury Road S., Shakopee, MN 55379.
“We are very excited about this year’s Give Where You Live Campaign,� said Rebecca Bowers, vice president of Fund Development. “We have seen a dramatic increase in need this past year and it is necessary to grow our fundraising to accommodate for this rising need.� For other ways to support the CA P Agency, go to capagency.org.
COUNCIL
“I’ve accomplished some things,� Boncher said, adding that other people have other ideas they can share. But no one was choosing to replace him. “W hat? C’mon. Nobody else? � Boncher said. “Fine. If no one else wants it, I’ll take it.�
“I’m kind of stuck with that one,� he joked. Ewals noted that he also meets with his own mayors association. “ E ve r y mor n i n g wh e n you’re brushing your teeth?� Thill deadpanned. No, Ewals said, the Scott County mayors meet together on occasion.
continued from page 1
During the first meeting each year, councilmembers routinely receive advisory committee assignments, but this council’s routine has become engaged political discussions about every appointment, especially the planning commission. This is the second time that the council, rather than the mayor, has given out councilmembers’ committee assignments.
DEVELOPMENT Ewals and Councilmember Thom Boncher requested to be on the Jordan Economic Development Authority (EDA). “I’d like to jump ship and go onto the EDA,â€? Ewals said of the planning commission, which recently gained two new members via a disputed process. “It’s something I haven’t done yet.â€? But neither of the council liaisons to the EDA wanted to give up their seats. Since the last council appointment flare-up, which was a year ago, the mayor lost all but his power to appoint EDA members. He could’ve unilaterally appointed himself, if he so chose. “I have no interest whatsoever in getting off the EDA,â€? Cou nci l member Joe T hi l l said, describing a cohesive g roup that has hand ful of projects forthcoming. “It’s moving along, whether you agree with it or not. ‌ The machine’s starting to get churning here.â€? Councilmember Tanya Velishek said she’s dedicated a lot of time to the EDA, including attending local business organization’s meetings. Boncher felt prompted to withdraw his request to be on the EDA, “given Councilmember Velishek feels so strongly,â€? he said. Velishek said she wants to fi nish the good work that began during her time on the commission. “I’d like to be on the EDA for one year,â€? Ewals said. “I don’t think that’s too much to ask.â€? “You can certainly ask, and you’ve done that,â€? Thill said without changing his mind. Ewa ls said he wants to serve in every possible city capacity, in order to develop a well-rounded approach to city government. He also said he has more busi ness experience t ha n Velishek, a statement to which she took exception. Then, she pointed out her dedication to committee work. Ewals twice apologized. Councilmember Jeremy Goebel commented about the rarity of councilmembers arguing about who gets to sit on the EDA. That wasn’t the case in past years. “This is nice – everyone fighting for business in Jordan,â€? Goebel said. “I tried forever to get on the park board.â€?
PARKS Boncher tried to leave the park board on Monday, saying that it’s time for someone else to serve on the commission. “You don’t want to continue your work?� Velishek said.
PLANNING Boncher also said he would serve on the planning commission if he must, before Schultz volunteered to fill Ewals’ seat. Schultz, a 16-year veteran of the council, will serve her first year on the planning commission. “I’m not planning on staying on there, because I’ve been there long enough,� Ewals said. The mayor tried to make the argument for a critic of the planning commission to take a seat on the board. While Ewals thought that the city had in the past built another cohesive group that did a good job, the council criticized the planning commission to the point of resignation. “The council gave them a no-confidence vote, and they quit,� Ewals said. He added: “The EDA has been divorced of anything the planning commission has been doing.� Thill, though, said that the problem had been solved with a simple request that city staff apprise the EDA of the planning commission’s actions.
PUBLIC SAFETY Councilmember Mike Shaw replaced Boncher on the public safety committee, rejoining a committee a fter a shor t absence. He did get the correct answer to one a l l-impor tant question: “Do they still have doughnuts?� Yes.
TRANSIT Thill accepted his continued assignment on the Scott County transit board. Goebel reluctantly serves as the alternate, “because I ride the bus. I’m the only one up here who has ever ridden a bus.� Thill said serving on a regional transit board is frustrating. Then, he turned to Goebel and said: “I’m trying to get a bus stop for you.�
SCALE T hi l l is ada ma nt about hi s i nvolvement wit h t he Scott County Association for Leadership and Efficiency (SCALE). He said he’s serving on the executive board, working his way toward chairman in a couple of years. Boncher replaced Ewals on the board.
MAYORAL DUTIES Shaw will again serve as the city’s acting mayor if Ewals can’t run the meetings, and Councilmember Tanya Velishek will fill the void if neither the mayor nor Shaw is available. No one can replace Ewals at the Minnesota Mayors Association meetings, though.
OTHER APPOINTMENTS Elected officials serve as council liaisons to more than 15 advisory groups affi liated with the city or other local governments. Thom Boncher represents the council at meetings of the: parks and recreation commission; city council-school board committee; SCALE; and public safety commission (alternate).

“I’m aware, Commissioner Wagner, that you got yourself involved in a criminal investigation … and you interjected yourself improperly into a situation and you somehow came to believe that the administrator was behind this and wasn’t protecting you,” Ulrich told Wagner, referring to a child injury case that involved Wagner’s relative. “This is absolutely offensive what you’re saying to me,” Wagner responded. “It’s offensive what you’re doing,” Ulrich said. Wagner, who was hoping for a third vote from Wolf, made the motion to terminate Shelton without providing any rationale, although he asked Employee Relations Director Jack Kemme to explain the process for termination within Shelton’s contract. Shelton may demand written charges and a public hearing, Kemme told the board. Menden – a former county sheri f f who acknowledged during his campaign to having differences with Shelton – was also short on specifics, although he stated he’s long had trust issues with Shelton. Prior to Tuesday’s meeting, Wagner was fairly tight-lipped, although he called Shelton a bully and made an issue of remarks Shelton has made about a side business he owns. “All I’m going to say is it’s time for a change,” Wagner said after Ulrich attacked him during Tuesday’s meeting. Ulrich, who made dozens of calls to leaders throughout Scott County in recent weeks to gather support for Shelton, said he talked with around 60 elected or high officials and “without exception they were shocked, dismayed and pretty angry about this course of action.” Wagner responded that none of them work with Shelton. “Yes, they do,” Ulrich said. “Not like we do,” Wagner said. It appears those calls may have persuaded Wolf. But Wolf stayed out of the ruckus during Tuesday’s discussion. Wagner rolled his head back when he heard Wolf say nay along with Marschall and Ulrich. Menden, who previously worked with Shelton at the county jail, seconded Wagner’s motion. He said that at home he has a list of 20 grievances against the county administrator. “There is no trust there. I’m always watching my back when he comes up with things,” Menden said. “There’s a whole list of things I prefer not to bring up. I would just feel a lot more

Mended responded that he gave Shelton a couple zeros, but rated him highly in the knowledge category because Shelton is “very knowledgeable.” Ahead of Tuesday’s meeting, Wagner said he’s had a long history of disagreements with Shelton and it all “boiled to a head” a few weeks ago. He told Shelton he no longer wanted him as county administrator during a contentious chair/vice-chair meeting with Shelton and the County Attorney Pat Ciliberto. Marschall asked Kemme on Tuesday for a brief overview of Shelton’s last performance review. She said Shelton is keeping the budget on target and taxes in line, and the county can’t afford the costs associated with terminating him and fi nding a replacement. “And who would we get as an administrator that is better than he?” she asked, adding that none of the administrators she knows from other counties could do a better job. If Menden has a list of grievances, Ulrich said he should bring it out. “If it’s going to be all personal stuff, we’re here to represent the public,” Ulrich said. “If we got a personal feeling, get over it.” “Some is personal, I’ll admit,” Menden said, “when he tries to do everything possible so you don’t get elected. The rest is business and ethical.” Ulrich said Menden alleged Shelton helped former Commissioner Jerry Hennen’s re-election bid. He encouraged Menden to speak with Hennen, who told Ulrich that Shelton had stayed neutral during the election. Menden defeated incumbent Hennen a year ago. Menden said he has spoken to Hennen several times, including just the other night. Wolf was evasive following the meeting. But after re peated questioning following the meeting, Wolf admitted to a reporter that he also had considered terminating Shelton. “I didn’t feel there was enough to oust him,” he said. Wolf acknowledged he was concerned about Shelton’s ownership of Midwest Monitoring, a corrections technology company that Shelton sold to SecureAlert, while retaining temporary managerial responsibilities. He is the general manager until September. Wolf said he was satisfied with Shelton’s explanation that he does not work for the company on county time. Shelton, who i s widely known to have owned Midwest Monitoring, told the newspaper that it is written into his

Shelton said he only works for SecureAlert on weekends and evenings. He also said he is required to disclose stocks and personal financial interests as a county administrator. Wagner told a reporter that he doesn’t like how Shelton brags about his outside business. He said in the past Shelton has remarked that he paid cash for his Lexus. Wag ner said he became really upset when Shelton mentioned during a recent truth-in-taxation hearing how much his home was worth. Shelton discussed how his taxes were fluctuating when a resident with a similarly valued property mentioned how much his taxes were rising. He said he believes Shelton did this just to irk him, knowing Wagner wouldn’t have the votes to terminate him. Wagner said he believes Shelton was a good fit under former Administrator Dave Unmacht because the two played “bad cop, good cop” but also said he was never comfortable with Shelton becoming the lead administrator. He voted against hiring Shelton in 2009, at the time saying he wanted the county to open the position to outside applicants. Shelton has declined to comment on Wagner’s rationale for wanting to fi re him, only saying he could speculate as to why. Ulrich claimed during the board meeting that Wagner is upset Shelton didn’t protect him in regards to an investigation into his involvement in a criminal investigation. Shelton “said, ‘Hands off and let it play out,’” Ulrich said. Wagner, although unhappy with how Shelton handled the matter, said it had nothing to do with his decision to seek Shelton’s removal. “I’m uncomfortable with his style of leadership – things of that nature,” Wagner said. The Sand Creek Township mortician and apple farmer said he told Shelton during the chair/vice-chair meeting a few weeks ago. He mentioned that it was Wolf, though, who did a lot of the shouting. “Believe me, this is not a sneak attack,” Wagner said. “I would love to go on a 15 minute little tirade about him. I would love to air my laundry in regards to him, the irritations I’ve had for 12, 13 years.” Wolf, who was part of the meeting a few weeks ago, declined to comment much on the matter, citing it as a personnel issue. However, he said before Tuesday’s meeting that he did not plan to second Wagner’s motion. “He can do what he wants,” Wolf said of Wagner.
SCOTT COUNTY BOARD
2012 levy frozen, but many to see tax hikes BY SHANNON FIECKE sfiecke@swpub.com
A favorable labor contract with Scott County’s largest union enabled county commissioners on Tuesday to freeze the county’s property tax levy for 2012; however, this move won’t spare some businesses and farmers from eye-popping tax increases due to state changes. County Commissioner Dave Menden of Shakopee heard from one commercial property owner whose taxes are set to go up $11,000 and another whose tax will rise by $5,500. “They are such hard-working people and good people,” Menden said. “We try to get these small businesses to hire people. To me it’s a joke, we keep nailing them. It’s not necessarily us, but a lot of what the state did.” In addition to approving a f lat 2012 levy of $ 60.5 million, the county on Tuesday ratified two-year labor contacts with three of its nine unions. Agreements were reached with AFSCME (the largest), 49ers and correctional staff, which along with non-bargaining staff make up 86 percent of the county’s labor force. No gener a l r a i s e s wer e awarded for either 2012 or 2013, but employees will be eligible for small merit pay increases. T hey can ea r n one -ti me lump sums equivalent to onequarter to 1 percent of their salaries for 2012. Depending on the outcome of performance reviews, bonuses could total around $200,000. The following year, members of the three affected unions will be eligible for a one-half to 4 percent adjustment to their base salary, depending on performance. Employees who don’t meet general per formance goals won’t be eligible for any raise. S c ot t C ou nt y i s u n ique among public employers for its merit pay system. It has contracts to negotiate with another six unions, the largest being the sheriff’s deputies.
MORE TAXES FOR SOME The county’s tax levy was f lat in 2010 and went up 1.6 percent this year, which was absorbed by new property in the county, noted County Board Chair Tom Wolf of Credit River Township. An increase of 0.9 percent was budgeted for 2012, with additional funding directed toward a reserve and capital account to cover unknowns in state funding and labor con-

tracts, said Kevin Ellsworth, the county’s fi nance head. A projected state surplus now means the county likely won’t face an emergency unallotment or deeper aid cuts than anticipated, Ellsworth said. Wolf — who legally had to abstain from voting Tuesday because he was on sedatives following foot surgery — said he went to the county administrator a couple weeks ago because he was uncomfortable with a tax increase of 0.9 percent. Even with a f lat levy, 45 percent of residents will pay $60 or more extra next year to the county (although 20 percent less now fall into this category). Nearly half will have a tax increase less than $ 60. The county bill will shrink for approximately 6 percent. The state cut $1.3 million in program aid from the county that used to directly subsidize the local property tax levy. In addition, the state eliminated the homestead property tax credit, but to soften the blow to lower-valued homes, pushed more of the tax burden onto businesses, farmers and higher-priced homes. A d d it io n a l ly, t h e s t at e has an automatic infl ator in its portion of the business property tax, explained Scott County Administrator Gary Shelton. At the Dec. 1 taxation hearing, the County Board heard from a Sand Creek Township farmer who expected a 38 percent tax increase and a New Market Township resident facing a 20 percent jump. “It’s the mechanism of the tax system that is shifting the burden of tax,” explained Ellsworth. “One bright spot,” said Ellsworth, is the county’s unemployment shrunk from 7 percent in January 2011 to 5 percent in October. It is trending closer to the 3 percent figure of before 2008, he said.
GOING INTO 2012
“We reorganized some of our divisions, flattened the organization, moving five divisions into two,” Ellsworth said. “Our resource-sharing continues to grow. We’ve updated portions of our components of our management plan — that’s a huge part of moving our organization forward for performance management, for st rategic budgeting.” As part of continued belttightening, 17 county positions will be eliminated in 2012 — eight via layoffs, five through voluntary retirements and four from the elimination of vacant posts. In 2012, the county will look for ways to reduce technology purchases through a metro-wide pool, Ellsworth said, and continue to explore a 911 dispatching merger with Carver County. The Sheriff’s Office has already put off some software purchases due to the possible merger. There’s also been talk of merging the two jails if the dispatchers can successfully be combined. But as the county organization gets slimmer, it may also look at adjusting the salaries for certain positions, such as top-level prosecutors and information technology specialists, due to competition in the marketplace for those skills, according to managers. The county also has hired a half-time economic development director and is ramping up efforts to further business growth through partnerships with the regional Itasca Project and other local governments through the Scott County Association for Leadership and Efficiency. On Tuesday, Scott County Attorney Pat Ciliberto — who sued the county for denying raises for him and top prosecutors — asked the county to conduct a market pay analysis for his staff, although he is not asking for a raise for himself. Earlier this year, a county judge ordered him a raise, but not one for his top staff. Scott County Sheriff Studnicka was also ordered a raise for this year, although he’s also not requesting one either for 2012.

The Optometric View by Dr. Vicki Luehmann (Borowicz) SENIOR DRIVERS’ AWARENESS OF CHANGING LIGHTS Older drivers ought to do everything they can to improve their situational awareness and reaction time. Any effort to hold on to a driver’s license and maintain a safe driving record should include regular eye exams, which can help seniors assess the development of cataracts and any effect they may have. The lens clouding associated with cataracts makes it more likely that seniors will experience problems with “contrast sensitivity.” Cataracts create contrast sensitivity limitations by scattering light before it hits the retina, making it seem as though one were looking through dirty glasses. With this in mind, it is in their best interest for seniors to have their eyes checked annually, especially if changes in vision are evident. If you or someone you know needs an eye exam call us at (952) 492-2350 today! Every patient is offered an eye exam in a friendly and professional environment. It is important to maintain a level of ocular health. Our optometrist is able to provide top quality care to all patients including those with glaucoma, diabetes, and cataracts. We are located at 223 E. First Street, Suite 101, and hope to see you soon! P.S. Cataracts can inhibit seniors’ driving ability by increasing sensitivity to glare.

Congratulations to our newly elected officials Congratulations to the Jordan School Board members who will take oaths of office this month. It appears that the board will be under new leadership, and it will be interesting to see how they go about their business. Either Joe Benko or Robert Vollbrecht, it seems, is in line to be nominated as the new chairman of the board. Both have taken controversial stances on various issues, but they also seem invigorated by the possibilities for the future of our beloved district. Newly elected members Caroline Carritt and Lauren Pedersen will join the rest of an ambitious school board that includes Deb Pauly, Dan Buresh and Sandy Burke, as well as Benko and Vollbrecht. We will miss Scott Erickson and Tammy Will, who served admirably. Losing Will and Erickson, who each decided against seeking re-election, will be big losses. Buresh has said he will not seek his peers’ support for more time as chairman. We will miss Buresh in the chairman’s role. Adding two new faces is a big change at a critical time for the school district as it has some major issues to decide. But Vollbrecht, re-elected last November, was appointed more than

a year ago partly because he had previously served on the board for eight years. His experience, plus that of the remainder of the board, will be an asset as it tackles tough questions, such as what to do about the rebuilding or replacing the middle school building and when to ask for a referendum (and how much for which to ask). There are big shoes to be filled by a new chairman, and there are big shoes to fi ll in the other school board seats. Have confidence that the board will come up with what is best for our students, as they usually do. Best wishes to our new school representatives. And congratulations to all who sought to serve on the school board. Voters were indeed fortunate to have some excellent candidates from which to choose, and they are fortunate to have hardworking, caring, intelligent board members in charge in 2012.

Our New Year’s wish: Renewed energy, spirit The New Year’s and Christmas holiday season is a time for reflection, good will and hope. It is the dawning of a new year, bringing with it hopes and expectations for what is to come. It is during this season when the best comes out of most people, when we witness a glimpse of the world as we wish it were year round. The world – indeed, life itself – is full of good and bad, and after experiencing a proliferation of good during the holidays, we naturally anticipate the good will for the whole year ahead. But just as children face disappointment when holidays are over for another year, we all fi nd too often that the special season’s spirit slips away from us. Perhaps we all can make strides to change that, by making a point to help others throughout the year, especially when so many of our friends and neighbors are in financial straits. Think of how much better our world would be if we did so. Times are tough for many of us, but we are not alone. Many nations in the world are in far more dire situations economically than the United States. And people in many countries in the

world can only dream of having the standard of living we enjoy in this country. We’re not trying to diminish the plight of our friends and neighbors who are living on a reduced income these days, but there are a surprising – perhaps shocking – number of people in Scott and Carver counties that have no place to live, and many don’t have access to food, clothing and medical care. May volunteers and service providers continue making a huge difference in the lives of so many of our neighbors. And, valued readers, as we have entered 2012, may you enjoy friends and family, share with those less fortunate, reflect on what good fortune is yours, and renew your energy and spirit for the year ahead.

Borrowing and building in Minnesota BY CONRAD DEFIEBRE
In these days of sovereign debt crises stretching from Athens to Washington, some may consider more public borrowing a fast road to ruin. But it ain’t necessarily so. Boasting one of the nation’s lightest debt loads, Minnesota is ideally positioned to pump up its economic recovery with longterm capital investment in public facilities. With nearly $2 billion in general obligation borrowing capacity and record low bond interest rates below 3 percent, the state has an unprecedented opportunity to repair aging infrastructure, increase productive capacity and get thousands of construction workers off the jobless rolls. It should be the Legislature’s top priority this year, enacted early in the session that begins Jan. 24. That way, many of the projects could get underway during the 2012 construction season, helping to restore the more than 40,000 Minnesota construction jobs that have dried up since 2006. “We’re by far the most depressed industry sector,” said Kyle Makarios of the North Central States Regional Council of Carpenters. “We have 3 percent of the employment, but onequarter of the unemployment. You can’t focus on jobs without focusing on the construction industry.” Once upon a time, borrowing for infrastructure wasn’t a partisan issue. Conservatives and progressives alike proclaimed the economic and quality-of-life benefits of excellent public facilities from Interstate highways to state college campuses. Over the past 20 years or so, these investments suffered collateral damage in right-wing antigovernment campaigns. But now there are signs of a change for the better. Congressional conservatives have backed off from their former resolve to cut federal transportation funding by one-third. New Jersey Gov. Chris
Christie, who famously scuttled a Hudson River transit tunnel project, recently called for several billion dollars in borrowing for transportation projects, even though his state ranks third highest in the nation in total debt. Another conservative icon, Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, turbocharged public infrastructure spending with the help of a $3.8 billion lease of the Indiana Toll Road to private investors. “The provision and upkeep of first-rate public infrastructure is a core duty of any responsible government, clearly within the sphere of government’s legitimate purposes,” he wrote in “Keeping the Republic,” his book published in September. Virginia’s conservative Gov. Bob McDonnell has proclaimed that in 2011 he “put the most new funding into roads and rail in the state in 25 years” – a $4 billion program enacted “with broad bipartisan support.” It featured $2.9 billion in bonding. “Transportation and economic development and prosperity are inextricably linked,” he said. Even in deep-red Wyoming, Gov. Matt Mead urged more than doubling state capital construction projects next year. “This budget recommends investment in the programs that create opportunities — education, construction, highways, cities, towns and counties,” he told the Legislature last month. You don’t have to take these conservatives’ word for the benefits of public capital investment. Economists at Moody’s have estimated that each dollar of new government infrastructure spending generates $1.59 of increased gross output. This is a greater return on investment than for any other economic stimulus effort except extended unemployment benefits and increased food stamps. It even beats payroll tax holidays, and it’s five times more effective than wasteful strategies like cutting corporate taxes, accelerating
business depreciation or making the Bush income tax cuts permanent, Moody’s says. Minnesota can no longer expect economic stimulus from Washington. We also have the second-lowest rate of regular federal spending among the states, 20 percent below the national average. Since tax and user fee increases are off the table for the foreseeable future in Minnesota, prudent borrowing for durable public goods will point our way forward. Fortunately, we have the stellar credit rating and fiscal strength to do this. Minnesota’s state bonding debt of $6 billion — not to be confused with our biennial deficit — is well within stringent borrowing guidelines adopted under former Gov. Tim Pawlenty. It’s proportionally onethird that of New Jersey, half that of Indiana, Virginia and the U.S. average, less even than Wyoming’s, according to the Congressional Research Service’s March 2011 report. Along with its enviable borrowing capacity, Minnesota has strong standards to ensure that state borrowing isn’t wasted. The state constitution limits bonding to publicly-owned construction projects with a public purpose clearly set forth in law. In fact, as the conservative political leaders quoted above know, the public and private sectors are indispensable partners in the creation of prosperity. In the current economic environment of a lagging jobs recovery, historically cheap borrowing and chronic infrastructure maintenance deficits, it’s time for frugal Minnesota to stick with the job of building what Gov. Daniels called “the backbone to which men and women of enterprise can attach their investments.” Conrad deFiebre is a Minnesota 2020 Transportation Fellow.

Skills for success: Critical thinking and problem solving Before the holiday break, several graduates spoke to a group of seniors about their college experiences. They talked of the importance of time management, roommate issues, homesickness and academic work loads. I was impressed at how they repeatedly emphasized the importance of making good decisions and focusing on academics. They have their eyes set on the goal and have grasped the large picture. I was in awe of the responsibility our staff has as they prepare our students for what they can expect beyond high school. When our students enter Jordan High School as freshmen, they cannot drive, vote or own a credit card. By the time they graduate, they can do all of these things.
COLLEGE continued from page 1
On that last topic, the college students focused on being responsible, choosing friends carefully and being safe. “If you don’t want to do anything, they’re not going to make you,” said Eric Reger, a first-year student at St. Cloud State University. “You just have to be careful you’re not being taken advantage of,” said Callie Gustafson, a first-year student at Winona State University. “Not everyone has to party,” said Maddie Haeg, a first-year student at the College of St. Scholastica. Not far from the discussion was an awareness of the cost of college. “College is expensive – like, really expensive,” said Caroline Bakalyar, a 2009 Jordan graduate now at Winona State University. “Do not wait to apply for financial aid,” Bakalyar said. While in high school, Timmons said, he devoted lots of time to looking at schools,
Barb
MCNULTY During high school, they are exposed to both the facts of history and importance of current events as well as great pieces of literature. Some learn to speak in another language and some can solve calculus problems. To ensure that students are ready to graduate, but not at scholarships. Now, he realizes that because of the activities he’s joined in college, he could have had more financial help. “That’s where I missed out. I’m paying probably 40 percent more than I could be,” Timmons said.
CLASSES AND FRIENDS Yeah, there’s also that thing called studying to think about in college. “It’s a lot different than what you’re used to,” Reger said, adding that there’s more time between classes, but that those classes are harder, and exams carry more weight. The idea that money and future careers are riding on what happens in college didn’t seem lost on the panel. However, there was also an awareness of the growing up that was happening after they left their parents, and the sometimes insulated town of Jordan. “I basically brought everything,” said Emily Beckius, a first-year student at the University of WisconsinRiver Falls. However,
Minnesota requires they show proficiency on writing, reading and math tests, which students take in their freshmen, sophomore and junior years. The math test in particular is extremely difficult. Those who want to take the test themselves can find examples on the Minnesota Department of Education website. But do these tests ensure our students have the skills they need for success in the 21st century? The tests our students take measure their ability to read and comprehend, communicate in writing, and solve complex mathematical problems. These are obviously important skills to function in society. However, to be truly successful in the job force, they must also be able to think
critically and solve problems, communicate using a variety of methods, collaborate, and demonstrate creativity and innovation. These are commonly referred to as the “four ‘C’ skills” and were outlined in the 21st Century Readiness Act. These are the skills that will make them competitive not only in the career they choose but also globally. Technology now affords our students the luxury and responsibility to interact on a much larger scale than ever has been experienced before. As our students journey through their four short years at the high school, teachers continually search for ways to help them find success in the 21st century. They adhere to the standards set forth by the state and assess students’
roommates brought things, too, like trash cans. “Now we have like four in our room, but that’s ok,” she said. Perhaps another lessdiscussed fact of dorm life: “You’re never really alone,” Beckius said. For some, roommates can be a concern. “We texted all summer,” said Nicole Krautkremer, a first-year student at Bemidji State University, “and we moved in with each other, and then – yeah.” Krautkremer said it’s important to make sure to figure out which school is the right fit while in high school. She plans to transfer to the University of Minnesota. “I only toured two schools,” Krautkremer said. Emily Boeckmann, a junior working on an English major at the College of St. Benedict, said sometimes it’s important to check whether, with a few more classes, you can get a minor without much trouble. Haeg, who started into college undecided on a major, said not knowing is ok,
because it could hurt to get tracked into one plan too early. “If you go in with a clean slate and an open mind, it helps you out,” Haeg said. Heidi Laabs, a sophomore at Iowa State University, said that even at a big school, if you get involved, “you’ll find people to do things with.” She said there are sports like broomball, volleyball or basketball to try – even a Rubik’s cube club. “I know how to solve Rubik’s cubes. I know, I’m a geek, right?” Laabs said. Haeg, who was in drama in high school, said she’s in a college play. “You meet a lot of people that like the same things as you,” Haeg said. Principal Barb McNulty said she called the forum after having her daughter go to college this past fall. “I had no idea how to prepare her for this,” McNulty said. After the talk, she said they had valuable advice. “This has been the best college panel I’ve ever seen,” McNulty said.
acquisition of skills in a variety of ways. Not only do teachers use traditional paper and pencil tests, but they also help students learn how to collaborate with each other as well as create projects and solve problems. Learning other methods to demonstrate what they have learned can only help students as they enter life after high school. Presentations, models and collaboration are activities they will experience in the work force. Estimates vary regarding the number of times our students will change jobs in their lifetimes. Some organizations predict they will change as few as three times and others predict as many as seven. That means we have
the responsibility to foster collaboration, communication, critical thinking, creativity and innovation, because focusing on one skill set for a specific career may actually set up road blocks. As I listened to the students offer advice, I was excited for our seniors. They will be responsible for our futures and we need to trust they are prepared for the responsibility. Douglas Rushkoff, a media theorist, refers to them as “the latest model of human being. Looking at the world of children is not looking backward at our own past – it’s looking ahead. They are our evolutionary future.” Barb McNulty is the principal of Jordan High School. She can be reached at mcnulbar@jordan.k12.mn.us.

Prison fence issue returns New state plan has college-campus look BY SHANNON FIECKE sfiecke@swpub.com
SUBMITTED PHOTO
An enlarged photo from a hidden camera caught the image of a person of interest in the alleged vandalism of lights at the Timberline neighborhood entrance.
Can you help solve alleged vandalism? BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com
Police are still looking for more information about the suspected vandalism of lights that shine on the Timberline neighborhood sign. As of Dec. 29, nobody had yet been charged in the case. “With great certainty, we have a suspect identified, but we are awaiting corroborating
evidence and further follow-up before charging,” said Jordan Police Department Chief Bob Malz. Police have received a statement from a suspected accomplice who witnessed the damage taking place, Malz said. Ongoing problems with vandalism at the sign led the homeowners association to try placing a hidden camera near the Timberline entrance. During
the evening of Nov. 27, a camera caught the images of at least two, and possibly three, individuals. The photos were published soon after, and the Jordan Police Department and the association teamed up to offer a total $500 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. At the time they were taken, the photos themselves weren’t of a high enough quality for police to identify a suspect.

A fence with barbed wire enci rcles the water tower across from the state women’s prison in Shakopee. A plain chain-link fence lines the Catholic cemetery. But five years after local opposition to a prison fence made for national comedy on “The Daily Show,” the Minnesota Correctional Facility in Shakopee continues to be protected by a hedge. “The water tower is more secure than the prison,” said John Schadl, a spokesman for the Minnesota Department of Corrections. The prison’s 2006 request for a fence failed to receive funding after drawing opposition from neighborhood residents and some Shakopee City Council members. Without community support, later bonding proposals gained little traction at the Legislature. With new faces on the City Council and the 2012 legislative bonding season fast approaching, the DOC appears to be putting its full weight toward securing $5.4 million in state funding next year for a 12-foot perimeter fence. Shakopee Mayor-elect Brad Tabke was briefed during a recent tour of the correctional facility. And state Sen. Claire Robling, R-Jordan, who supports the fence project, was also updated on the prison’s latest proposal, which calls for one fence instead of the two from an earlier plan. A com mu nit y advi sor y panel will meet ahead of a neighborhood meeting scheduled for 1 to 2 p.m. Jan. 12 on the proposal. (Postcards are going out to neighbors).

And they say the fence is just as much about protecting the outside public as it is protecting inmates from old boyfriends or associates. There’s nothing to stop someone from walking onto the prison grounds, which looks like a college campus, or tossing contraband into a bush or near a building (which has happened). Each day, the

Prison officials say a proposed fence would mirror those at college campuses. The fence pictured is similar to the design envisioned.
“We feel the community is safe now, but it’s still a prison. We’re worried about the safety of offenders and staff.” John Schadl Minnesota Department of Corrections spokesman prisoners leave their living quarters and walk outside to enter the dining facility, Tabke was told. “We’re worried about the safety of offenders and staff,” Schadl said. The proposed fence has brick columns with wrought iron-like bars that curve at the top. It is supposed to match the prison’s college campus-look. A previous plan had two fences, separated by open space, with the inner fence constr ucted of chain link and wired so anyone trying to climb it would set off an elaborate alarm system. (In addition to a fence, the prison is seeking funding to expand its intake and segregation areas through internal renovation.) If he lived in the neighborhood, Schadl said he would be concerned about how the fence would look. However, Schadl said the fence, similar to one surrounding St. Catherine University in St. Paul, is nothing extreme, with no barbed wire. It’s his contention that “good fences make good neighbors.” The department, he said, intends to stick to the deal it struck with Shakopee when the current facility was built in 1986: to keep the prison in context with the surrounding community. (The prison dates back to 1919 in Shakopee.) However, some neighbors believe the very proposal for a fence shows the prison is housing an inmate population that
violates that deal. “They assured us – don’t worry, it won’t be dangerous people,” said neighbor Scott Duffney. “They’ve kind of been cheating on that.” The arguments the prison gave soon-to-be-Mayor Tabke about the need for a fence made sense, he said. However, he still wants to hear what neighbors have to say. “If the opposition is purely aesthetic, I think the DOC did a good job of addressing that,” said Tabke, who has heard from some residents already due to his online postings. “If there are other issues, I need to understand them.” Duffney is open to learning more about the prison’s rationale for a fence. However, if the reason is dangerous inmates, perhaps the question ought to be whether such inmates should be housed in the heart of a residential area and across from an elementary school in the fi rst place, he said. “Maybe now is the time to say we have to segregate and put the worst offenders in a more secu re environment [outside of Shakopee] ,” he said. Tabke said the prison is currently required to expel any prisoner who talks about escaping, due to the lack of a fence. These inmates are sent to another prison outside of Minnesota since no other state prisons take women. Sh ann on Fi e ck e c an b e reached at (952) 345-6679 or sfiecke@swpub.com.
Prior Lake Polar Plunge set for Feb. 18 Registration is now open for the Prior Lake Polar Bear Plunge, presented by Law Enforcement to benefit Special Olympics Minnesota.

2011 Time well spent The JI takes a look back at fourth quarter of past year Editor’s note: As we turn the corner into 2012, let’s take an opportunity to reflect on the past year. A summary of news occurring during the other three quarters of the year ran in recent editions of your local newspaper. This is a chronological summary of news reported in the fourth quarter of 2011.
SEPT. 1 Jordan Dental Care is moving out of downtown Jordan to expand in the Whispering Meadows development, near the Triangle Business District in Jordan. For more than 50 years, the business has operated out of a building along Broadway Street. The Jordan Planning Commission has gone around and around with Dr. Elizabeth Thelemann and Walter Zuniga about the architectural design of the building, trying to increase its compatibility with the look of the downtown area it is leaving, while the owners argued that their design fits with other buildings in Whispering Meadows and is best for business. The commission recommended against a roof that is terracotta in color. On a trip to Spain, where 1 million gathered and saw the pope on World Youth Day, four Jordan youths carried a handkerchief with 100 prayer intentions scrawled on it.
“I think teams will overlook us.” Jordan High School Head Football Coach Craig Albers On hopeful prospects for a winning season in 2011 (Sept. 1) Jordan Elementary School classes start four days late, due to cleanup of mold formed by a malfunctioning air conditioner and a hot, humid summer. Repair and cleanup costs were estimated at more than $300,000. Ten candidates applied for the Jordan Area Chamber of Commerce Miss Jordan Ambassador Program. A t h i r d d e fe n d a nt w a s named in an alleged burglary at a Jordan home. Ricky Manivanh, 17, of Jordan is being cha rged as a n adu lt, wit h fi rst-degree burglary. The case
involved firearms hidden in the woods near Jordan Middle School. You could win a 2012 F-150 SuperCab in a Cadillac dinner raffle to benefit St. John the Baptist Catholic School and Church in Jordan. The Cadillac dinner is scheduled for March 3, 2012, but the Rev. Timothy Yanta, pastor at the church, bought the first 10 raffle tickets in 2011. One hundred teams turned out for Jordan’s second annual bags tournament. The top three bean bag-tossing teams won $1,000, $500 and $250. Dave Lenzmeier and Brad Evenson of Jordan won the beginners bracket. Careful about what to call the sport, Jordan Area Chamber of Commerce also moved the tourney from Lagoon Park to Clancy’s Pizza Parlor. Two hundred nine people entered the 15th annual Harley Heaven Motorcycle Ride, raising $2,600 for two good causes. In an effort that caused head coach Jason Geisel to note the
rust on his players, the Jordan Jaguars lost to Minnetonka one match before facing Blaine, a powerhouse in a large class of schools. Jordan’s cross-country teams generate excitement. The Jaguars return two runners who finished in the top 15 at state in 2010, and the Hubmen hope to win the conference meet. Jordan Jaguars tennis won four matches in a week, including a nail-biter against New Prague. The Jordan Millers won the consolation championship of Class 2A in the Minnesota Senior Men’s State Tournament. A fi fth-place fi nish is the highest in recent team history. After a one-win season in 2010, the Jordan Hubmen football team was featured in a pullout preview section of the Jordan Independent. “I think teams will overlook us,” head coach Craig Albers said.

SEPT. 8 Jordan scores in a state science test were pushed up by strong gains by fi fth-graders. In the 2010-2011 school year, 69 percent of fi fth-graders tested proficient in science, compared to 48, 52 and 48 percent in previous years. Classroom instruction and tests prepared students for the way they would take the state test, said Carol Lagergren, Jordan Public Schools curriculum director. In its 11th year, the Jordan Classic Car and Cycle Cruise changed its route to once again include a stop at Lydia, the proud, unincorporated town in Spring Lake Township. Up to $250 of free ice cream? For a rededication of a cannon? Well, yes, because it happened at Heimatfest, the annual city festival, a lot of ice cream probably will be necessary. The 1909 Spandel 105-mm field gun that sits at the entrance to Lagoon Park has been refurbished and will undergo ceremonial proceedings, and the city council voted to foot the bill. Due to mold, Jordan Elementary School threw away all of the backpacks used for the Blessings in a Backpack food program. “We’ve got some
moms on a mission right now to get backpacks,� Principal Stacy DeCorsey said of a push for donated replacements. The Jordan City Council approve d new appl ic at ion questions and minimum requirements for service on the Jordan Planning Commission, with the exception of the commission’s proposed waiting period for former city employees, past elected officials or failed candidates before they can apply for a position on the commission. Ken Lucas served 34 years on the Jordan Fire Department before retiring. “He was there for everything,� Fire Chief Steve Kochlin said. Scott County Meth Task Force hosts its Tee It Up for the Task Force golf tournament in Shakopee.
SEPT. 15 Jordan Area Chamber of Commerce Miss Jordan Ambassador Program candidates chose Ali Pauly as their Miss Congeniality. She also was chosen to be Miss Jordan, and First Princess Trisha Laabs and Second Princess Lexi Johnson complete the town’s royal court.

The Knox family won the Scott County Historical Society’s Jordan scavenger hunt during Heimatfest. The Run of the Mill 5K took a different route than in the past, due to the reconstruction of Old Highway 169 (aka County Road 66). John Behr, a 30-year veteran at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival, has been king since 2005. His story is one of an occasional series called Cool Jobs.

W hen t he S c ot t C ou nt y Board passed its preliminary tax levy, Commissioner Dave Menden voted against the proposal, saying that residents would rather forego roadwork than pay more property taxes. After a clean bill of health, Jordan Elementary School began its school year on Monday, Sept. 12, four days late, after mold forced a late-summer cleanup in the building. Superintendent Kirk Nelson estimated the cost of the ordeal is approaching $400,000. Faith Sullivan, author of “The Cape Ann,� joined a Jordan area women’s book club for an evening. She loved Deb Atneosen’s Vomacka soup and asked for the recipe. In exchange, she offered to send her peach pie recipe to Atneosen, Nancy Pearson, Colleen Heimkes, Susan Michael, Kate Busch, Carole Cole, Laurie Green and Mary Finley. Jordan Police Chief Bob Malz swung a deal with Jordan Public Schools and Minnesota River Valley Special Education Cooperative (MRVSEC) for reinstatement of the school resource officer position and, thus, Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE). Each school board is likely to contribute $5,000, he said. In Mayor Pete Ewals’ absence due to a restraining order against him, the Jor-

dan City Council eliminated the second public-comment period during council meetings, among other changes to meeting protocol. After three losses, the Jordan Jaguars won their first volleyball match of the year.
SEPT. 22 Shane Bauer and Josh Fattal, American hikers imprisoned in Iran for more than two years, were released on a $1 million bail-for-freedom deal. Bauer’s father, Al, lives in Sand Creek Township. Mike Riker, 18, of Jordan spent his summer fighting fires as one of a dozen-member North Star Fire Crew in Alaska. His story is one of an occasional series called Cool Jobs. Jordan eighth-graders surpassed the state average on the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment-II (MCA-II) tests, while Jordan High School’s juniors lagged below the state average in math. In reading, the district as a whole again showed higher scores than the state average. The Jordan Planning Commission resurrected the mayor’s past proposal to pull mercury-filled teeth of the deceased before cremation. St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Jordan hosted its fall festival, serving 1,245 chicken and ham dinners, giving away
$10,000 in jackpot drawings and more than $4,100 in donated cash and prizes. The seventh annual Jordan Early Child Family Education (ECFE) Craft and Gift Show drew more than 100 vendors. Amanda Rebecca (Stang) a nd Ju sti n M ich ael T hei s dubbed their Aug. 27, 2011, 1960s-style, hippie-feel wedding “Wedstock.� After Jordan Planning Commission candidate Robert Envall was publicly grilled about online comments he made, the Jordan City Council reopened the interview process for two open seats on the commission, instead of appointing just one, Gene Flynn, as the commission recommended. The city’s debt payments will drop off in 2013, just in time to start paying for a new library. Even after loan payments for a library, the city could borrow about $139,000 without a 2013 tax levy increase. Jaguars tennis grabbed its fi rst Minnesota River Conference (MRC) title. It’s the 12th year for the Jordan’s girls tennis program.

SEPT. 29 T r i sh a L a ab s a nd Ku r t Schansberg were named Jordan High School’s 2011 homecoming queen and king. Madison Pelowski and Afton Koch served as junior attendants. Dynotec Industries, formerly located in downtown Jordan, will purchase a building in the Timberline Industrial Park, bringing 15 jobs to town. It took a nearly $123,000 fi nancial assistance package from the city to woo the automobile transmission remanufacturer, wholesaler and distributor to woo the business from Shakopee. Jordan Public Schools’ plan to pay for an air handler installed in 2010 involves a proposed tax levy increase of less than 9 percent in 2012. More than a dozen rookie firefighters convened at the Scott County Association for Leadership and Ef ficiency (SCALE) Regional Training Facility in Sand Creek Township, near Jordan, for a 24hour training session. One of the lessons: Firefighters must respond regardless of what tiring, mundane or stressful events were going on in their lives before the call. St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Jordan is collecting Halloween costumes for the families that utilize the Jordan Area Food Shelf. The Jordan School Board voted to hire a half-time thirdgrade teacher to lower class sizes in that grade, especially during reading and math instruction. Joe Benko cast the sole vote against the hire, arguing for a full-time teacher. The average class size in third grade at Jordan Elementary School is 27. Maj. Gen. Richard Nash, adjutant general of the Minnesota National Guard and a Jordan High School graduate, saluted and greeted President Barack Obama at the airport during Obama’s second visit in two weeks. With three big wins, Jordan volleyball leapt into the top 10 rankings in Minnesota’s Class 2A. The Jaguars beat No. 7 Centennial, No. 4 Le SueurHenderson, and No. 3 Belle Plaine. They also took a set from the No. 1-ranked team in Class 3A, Lakeville North, in the prestigious Eagle Tournament in Apple Valley.
OCT. 6 Don’t pin your hopes on a pharmacy or a museum coming to Jordan in conjunction with a proposed library, a medical clinic and senior housing. Scott County Community Development Agency’s proposal for property near the intersection of Seville Drive and Creek Lane consists of 50 housing units on four stories, an 8,000-squarefoot library with high ceilings and some meeting rooms, a 5,000-square-foot clinic run by St. Francis Regional Medical Center, and 2,000-squarefoot pharmacy with a drivethrough. Students lined the streets for the Jordan High School homecoming parade. At halftime of the football game, school officials announced a $40,000 scholarship-fund donation from the Virginia Habeggar estate.

Michelle Lynn Bressette, a Prior Lake postal worker and Jordan resident, was sentenced to three years of probation, including 90 days of home confi nement, on one count of theft of mail matter. After pleading guilty, she was also ordered to pay $2,000 in restitution. The Jordan City Council approved of the formation of a library task force to offer local suggestions about the interior elements of a new library, many of which are paid for by Scott County. Jordan Mayor Pete Ewals hasn’t signed the crematoryrelated ordinance that the council reworked after losing in court to the Jordan Community Action Group. The council voted to change the defi nition of a crematory to make it an accessory use to a funeral home and thus, in the case of Ballard-Sunder Funeral Home, permitted downtown.

He posted an 0-2 record and 20 strikeouts in 25-2/3 innings of 21 games, giving up eight runs (six earned). Jordan volleyball finished the season at No. 6 in the state Class 2A rankings.

Kim and Ron Hubner, have been the maze masters at CarnEvil in 3-D at ValleySCARE, but it’s the clowns that do the scaring. A new heart valve repair procedure saved 73-year-old Jim Rutoski’s life. Instead of a undergoing a fi fth heart surgery, the Sand Creek Township man argued for compassionate use of a procedure unapproved yet by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, skirting the effects of mitral valve disease. Five candidates ran for three open seats on the Jordan School Board. Shou ld a public school’s music curriculum be centered around a Christian holiday? The Jordan School Board got snagged on that rock of a question during what was sup posed to be a discussion about informances, which would in a classroom setting communicate to onlookers the processes that get students to a fi nished product, like a concert. At the direction of the board, the Christmas program will stay. Jordan Mayor Pete Ewals paid $ 400 to court administration a fter Scott County Attorney’s Office agreed to a continuance for dismissal of the pending disorderly conduct charge against him. In a year, the case could be dismissed. Ewals admitted to no wrongdoing. Grant money from Minnesota Valley Electric Cooperative’s Operation Round Up provided the money to bring Dave Scherer’s hip hop act AGAPE to St. John the Baptist Catholic School in Jordan. Third-grade teacher Amy Johns received $1,000 in teaching supplies as par t of OfficeMax’s A Day Made Better program. Jordan Public Schools started out the 2011-2012 school year with an enrollment increase of 30 students.
William Macklin ordered a small raise for the Scott County attorney, but the Scott County District Court judge did not find sufficient cause for also increase the pay of the Pat Ciliberto’s top staff.

The Jaguars volleyball team finished fifth at the Lakeville North Bachmann Invitational. Jordan ended its tennis season at the conference semifinals at Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter.
OCT. 20 The mayor’s colleagues want him to sign on the line. Pete Ewals decided not to sign a crematory-related amendment to the city’s zoning ordinance favored by the Jordan City Council two weeks prior, so the council voted to sue the mayor to get it signed. Jordan eighth-graders responded well – and emotionally – to the annual Courage Retreat, which includes the goals of building positive school community, breaking down social barriers and helping students act with courage in moments of choice. The Jordan school district has a $1.9 million general fund balance, but that money isn’t on hand, according to an audit. With only $155,000 available but state aid anticipated, the Jordan School Board unanimously voted to borrow $1 million. The Jordan Brewers townball team switched from the Minnesota Baseball Association’s Class B to C. People in and around the Brewers organization say the move is about playing local players.
For the fi rst time in Jordan High School history, the tennis program was represented at the state tournament. The doubles team of Drew DeCorsey and Alex Hancock made it.
OCT. 27 Karen Keller is Jordan’s new postmaster. She was one of more than 40 applicants for the much-desired spot. U.S. Rep.

While the Belle Plaine Herald published a story about a big tree, Juan Nazario of Belle Plaine told about two white oaks that probably are bi g ger – Br i a n E f t a’s t re e off of Valley View Drive and another lesser-known one on other private property near Belle Plaine. The River Valley Trailblazers Snowmobile Club of Jordan and Shakopee helped clear the Minnesota Valley State Trail after floods caused the trails to close.

The city will replace an extra police car in 2012, getting back onto a schedule that involves replacing one squad car a year – that is, every 100,000 miles. Students at St. John the Baptist Catholic School in Jordan got some time to do work outside of the classroom, raking leaves, dusting the church or singing for senior citizens for the annual Marathon that raises money for the school. Jordan Superintendent Kirk Nelson started his blog on jordannews.com. Jordan Public Schools Curriculum Director Carol Lagergren gave a report about, among other things, just how close the district is to making adequate yearly progress (AYP). One hundred twenty-nine students open enroll into the Jordan school district, while 191 open enroll out. Jordan resident Jensen Orlow won the Class 2A, Section 2 cross-country meet.

The Jordan High School All-Night Graduation Party Committee held its annual beer and wine tasting.

DEC. 15

It’ll be the second-to-last ornament in the traditional set. Mamer Construction offered the winning bid for Lagoon Park bathroom improvements. The city will spend $18,704 for a laundry list of work. Sixth-grader Zach Schmit won St. John the Baptist Catholic School’s peace poster contest. With Jeff and Tim Will upset about bills from Elite Waste Disposal showing up at their doors, the local company’s fiveyear contract term was found to be illegal, absent an ordinance amendment. Jordan won’t participate in any groundwater pollution solution for the gravel pit proposed by Jordan Aggregates, a subsidiary of S.M. Hentges & Sons Inc. of Jordan Industrial Park. A committee will decide what might go in the interior of a new library in Jordan, so interested parties visited the libra r y i n Nor wood-You ng America, set forth as a good example of what could be done here. T he cit y ’s hotel m a rket study, confi rming the need for a brand-name hotel in town, will cost $3,500 to update. As the Jordan City Council decided to buy a $30,200 police car, Councilmember Thom Boncher said that city staff needs to stop creating “slush funds” for previously unapproved items. (That statement didn’t go over well with the fi nance director.) Three hikers who were freed after being held in Iran traveled to the Jordan area to thank locals for their support. Maj. G en.

In Jordan High School’s “Completely Hollywood (abridged),” Emily Stocker (left), Alyssa Clay, Tony Eichten, George Neves, Morgan Krull, Spencer Kubista, Lora Genetzky and Madeline Struck were “Snow White and the Seven Samurai.” (Nov. 24)
“How is that not a sex act?” Jordan Police Chief Bob Malz said, as Jack’s Bar and Grill owner Craig Marte defends himself in front of the Jordan City Council. Marte has been charged with operating a sexually oriented business without a license and civilly penalized for violating related city codes. (Dec. 22)
NOV. 24 Readjusting the Municipal State Aid ( MSA) col lectorstreet system will allow the city of Jordan a funding mechanism for the $1 million Rice Street bridge. Cliquorstore.com, developed by Jorda n resident Dua ne Birchem, solves a classic difficulty for the local liquor stores and their potential customers – how to meet up. A Minnesota company hopes to bring a $ 500 million motorsports complex that could draw tens of thousands of fans to Elko New Market, a city that already boasts a popular speedway. “Great Public Schools: A Basic Right and Our Responsibility” is the theme of Jordan Public Schools’ American Education Week. Once Deb Pauly said that the Minnesota School Boards Association (MSBA) advised against rushing into making concussion tests mandatory for high school athletes, the Jordan School Board backed away but might not abandon from the proposal.
DEC. 1 Houses owned and deco rated by Gary and Joanie Beise, Sandy Betchwars, Jen and Jeff Hentges, Chip and Paulette Krautkremer, Jeff and Kayley McGarry and Mary Lee Schrader, as well as the Jordan fi re hall and the Corner Peddler, are on the 2011 Jordan Holiday Tour of Homes.
Minnesota Department of Transportation will spend $1 million to mill and overlay Highway 21 (aka Broadway Street), from Highway 169 to Mill Street, in downtown Jordan.

denying commission recommendations and turning down applicants for commission seats that led to a meeting walkout by and resignation of two more commissioners. Jordan Middle School again held a health fair. Jordan Elementary School teachers use Positive Behavior Intervention Strategies (PBIS) to reward well-behaved students. Response to Intervention (RTI) offers a positive spin on standardized testing. This school year, 49 of 61 Jordan Middle School students who participated in the program meant to help struggling students improved on their Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment (MCA) scores. R apid s L a ke E duc at ion Center, between Jordan and Carver, offers free snowshoes to Minnesota National Wildlife Refuge park-goers in the wintertime. Scott and Carver counties continue to look into merging their 911 dispatch centers, at a savings that could be more than $500,000 a year. Jordan capital improvement fund contains $175,000 for a city hall, police station or library, as well as the same amount for a trail along Old Highway 169 (County Road 66). The Jordaness Lions hosted their 22nd annual holiday fashion show Nov. 19. The Scott West Panthers wrestling team won the Lakeville North Invitational.
Jordan High School students in the future will need to take more credits to graduate, as well as spend more time in social studies classes. Principal Barb McNulty, who is working on initiatives to increase academic rigor at the school, proposed the changes. Scott County District Court Judge Michael Fahey issued an order for Jordan Mayor Pete Ewals to sign a zoning ordinance that defi nes crematories as accessory uses to funeral homes. In October, the Jordan City Council passed the measure meant to pave the way for further operation of Reflections Crematory in downtown Jordan. The amended ordinance might also solve issues related to court action by the Jordan Community Action Group. Jordan High School Media Assistant Joanne Westphal used a $50 donation from the New Prague American Legion Auxiliary Unit 45 to buy a print of a 1908 photo taken as the cavalry rides through town on the way to Fort Snelling. The auxiliary made the donation in hopes of boosting patriotism. Vandals have repeatedly broken lights that shine on the Timberline neighborhood sig n, and a hidden camera caught two people of interest in the case. Three photos were published in the Jordan Independent. Jordan Public Works Director Dave Bendzick got part of his wish for 2012 – a new snowplow truck with an International 7500 chassis is coming next year, unfortunately, not in time for this winter. About $55,000 of its $180,000 cost will be fi nanced. Sans a single unanimous vote, the Jordan City Council again passed its $ 3.1 million budget, along with several related measures. Jordan’s 2012 tax levy does not go up, while 2012 spending increases by almost $32,000. Radermacher’s Fresh Market held its annual holidayseason open house. Each day from Jan. 3 to June 6, 2012, Jordan Elementary School students will be dismissed from school 15 minutes later than usual. Jordan Middle School students will change their bus schedule and be loaded before elementary students. Jordan High School students who take the bus will walk to the elementary school to catch their end-of-the-day buses. The elementary school is making up for 24 hours of lost instructional time due to mold issues that delayed the start of the school year. Jordan School Board Member Joe Benko opposed the changes, although they had already been announced to parents. M add ie D e a n sc or e d 4 8 points for the Jordan Jaguars basketball team, setting a new
single-game scoring school record, against WatertownMayer. Her previous personal best was 30 points last year. Brittany Chambers scored 47 in a 2008 state tournament game.
DEC. 22 After more than a year of offering adult entertainment in downtown Jordan, Jack’s Bar and Grill was slapped with a $500 civil fi ne and, on a legally separate yet obviously associated front, the owners earned criminal charges. Early Childhood Family Education (ECFE) classes mingled with Schule Haus residents during Christmas gatherings. Santa visited, with help from Gary Beise. Scott County Historical Society is the city’s likely partner for an inspired local endeavor to preserve and display historical artifacts. Nex t yea r, Jorda n Hig h School students might be able to take University of Minnesota courses from their own high school teachers, in their own school. Jordan Mayor Pete Ewals signed the crematory-related ordinance that he disputed in court. It’s been 25 years for the Remembrance Run, an annual effort to reconcile differences between whites and Native Americans while remembering the high cost of the Dakota Conflict of 1862. A stop in Jordan featured two PBS-TV specials, “The Dakota Conf lict” and “Dakota Exile.” Candlelight worship services dubbed Unplugged take place at the Jordan brewery, as do Bible studies. Carissa Lewis won the Jordaness Lions’ annual essay contest. Jordan Jaguars basketball has earned a No. 8 state ranking, after a fast start to the 2011-2012 season.
DEC. 29 Students at Jordan Elementary School who might not otherwise report bullying can use the Bully Box – just drop a note in the box and the social worker will follow up. With the reinstatement of a police officer position, the Jordan City Council effectively restarted its programs in local schools, including Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE). Question: What do 100 gloves, 100 valentines, 100 pounds of food, 100 eggs, 100 trees, and 100 flags all have in common? Answer: They’ll each be given away by the Jordan Commercial Club as a reminder of its 100 years of service. Jorda n’s cri me rate has d ropped a fter “a couple of good months,” Police Chief Bob Malz said. “We’ve actually fallen below our totals from last year. … I’m encouraged.” The annual police report doesn’t generally doesn’t come out for a few months. Scott West beat St. MichaelAlbertville, the No. 2-ranked team in Class 3A, 33-25 at a home match in Belle Plaine. A maximum $8,000 was donated to Jordan volleyball programs after the Drive One 4 UR School fund-raiser, sponsored by Wolf Motors and Ford. Mathias Baden compiled the chronology of 2011.

Scott West’s big rally keeps title belt Wrestlers defend Rumble on Red title
Scott West sent one other wrestler to the fi nals – Luke Zilverberg fi nished second at 132 pounds. Zilverberg lost 16 - 8 to Omaha Skutt’s (Neb.) Thomas Gilman in the championship. Gilman is the No. 1-ranked wrestler in the nation and will wrestle for Iowa next season. “I thought Luke did a good job of wrestling hard and staying in the match,” Ripley said. Fogarty rebounded from his early loss to fi nish in third place. He pi n ned Wayzat a’s Weston Droegemueller in 46 seconds to claim third place. Fogarty got revenge when he defeated Westrich 11-0 in the wrestle backs. Other place winners for the Panthers were: Siegle, fourth at 113 pounds; Luke Betchwars, fifth at 126 pounds; Nick Dvorak, fi fth at 170 pounds; David Flynn, sixth at 106 pounds; Charlie Pesch, seventh at 152 pounds; and Jake DeWeese eighth at 182 pounds.

Luckily for the Scott West wrestling team, the Rumble on the Red is a two-day tournament instead of just one. If the 60-team tournament was just one day, the Panthers would not have defended their title. After a poor first day of the tournament at the Fargodome in Fargo, N.D., Scott West rallied to win the Rumble on the Red tournament for the second year in a row. The Panthers were in sixth place and 25 points out of fi rst after the fi rst day but rallied to win 25 of 36 matches on the second day to win the tournament by 17 points. Scott West finished with 207 points to top Albert Lea’s 190.5. West Fargo was third at 186, followed by Foley and Jackson County Central to round out the top five. “For whatever reason, and there were probably multiple factors, we just didn’t have a very good fi rst day of wrestling,” co-head coach Darren Ripley said. Scott West had nine wrestlers seeded in the top six of their weight bracket, but only six of those nine reached the quarterfi nals and two of those the semifi nals. The biggest setback came when No. 1-seeded Gabe Fogarty lost in the round of 16 to Lakeville North’s Lucas Westrich 10-6. With the fi rst day behind them, Scott West looked to a much better second day. The Panthers won their fi rst nine
JUNIOR VARSITY
INDIVIDUAL SUCCESS
The Scott West junior-varsity team entered 19 wrestlers into the JV tournament and came away with seven place winners. Jake Weierke and Lee Vest won individual titles at 119 and 160 pounds, respectively.
If winning the team title wasn’t enough, Scott West had nine place winners, including one champion. That champion was senior Michael Kroells, who dominated the 220-pound weight division. Kroells easily defeated Minneota’s Josh Vanoverbeck 10-2 in the title match to win his second straight Rumble on the Red title. He is the fi rst Scott West wrestler to win two Rumble on the Red titles.
The Panthers will host Le SueurHenderson tonight (Thursday) in Belle Plaine before heading to Iowa to participate in the Denver-Tripoli Invitational in Tripoli, Iowa. The tournament will feature two No. 1-ranked teams from Iowa, Denver-Tripoli and Nashua-Plainfield. The Panthers won the title a year ago.

just a half-point out of first when Zach Siegle took the mat for his match against St. Cloud Apollo’s Grant Dullinger in the wrestle backs. Siegle scored a 1-0 win with a thirdperiod escape that gave the Panthers 4.5 team points and the lead in the tournament over Foley. They never looked back. “You have to give our kids a lot of credit for fighting their way back and wrestling hard for every point and every match,” Ripley said.

Big win: Girls defeat GFW, 74-17 BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com
Hannah Klegstad scored six points against GibbonFairfax-Winthrop.
What a way to rebound from a loss. The Jordan girls basketball had to wait for a week to pass before they could get back on the court after they suffered their fi rst loss of the season. They took out any frustrations on Gibbon-FairfaxWinthrop in a big way on Dec. 29 at home. The Jaguars held GFW to just four fi rst-half points and cruised to a 74-17 win to improve to 8-1 on the season. “I was very pleased that our team played with the intensity they did,” head coach Greg Dietel said. “You never know how teams are going to play during the holiday break. We had good energy in our two practices leading up to the game, and it defi nitely carried over when we played GFW. A credit to the focus of our players.” In their loss to Shakopee on Dec. 22, Jordan found it tough to score and wanted to work on their offense against the Thunderbirds. Their work paid off as they scored almost at will. T he Ja g u a r s s c or e d 4 2 points in the fi rst half, as they

for easy baskets. The Shakopee game taught us that we need to be able to rely on our offensive sets to get good shots when we aren’t scoring in transition, and I thought our players showed a lot of improvement
with this against GFW. We played with some discipline in our half-court offense. We need to continue with that mentality.” Ten different Jaguars scored in the 57-point victory. Alex Hancock led the charge with 14 points, followed by Kelsey Chambers 13, Maddy Dean’s 12 and Elle Case’s nine. As much as t he of fense helped out the defense, giving up only 17 points is incredible, no matter the opponent. “I thought our defense was solid the entire game,” Dietel said. “We guarded the ball well. We kept the ball out of the lane. We rotated well. Obviously, giving up only 17 points is a credit to our players, but the intensity they showed throughout the game was fun to see.” The Jaguars return to action at 7:30 p.m. tonight when they host Sibley East. That game begins a stretch of six straight Minnesota River Conference games for Jordan.

A tale of two halves Second half rally can’t overcome first half struggles BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com
A poor start doomed the Jordan boys basketball team on Tuesday night. The Hubmen picked it up in the second half but by than it was a little to late to overcome Norwood-Young America. Jordan cut the Raiders lead to seven midway through the second half but ended up losing by 11, 60-49. Norwood-Young America took advantage of Jordan’s rough start to build an 18-point halftime lead, 38-20. “This was a tale of two halves,� head coach Matt Urbanek said. “We did not come out with enough energy or effort to start the game and we gave up open shots, penetration a n d o f fe n sive r e b ou n d s . Those are hustle categories. We dug ourselves a hole and couldn’t quite dig ourselves out.� In the second half, Jordan played with more fi re and passion and got itself back in the game but the deficit was just too much to overcome. “We played much better and harder toward the end of the fi rst half and especially in the second half,� Urbanek said. The defensive effort in the second half was high as they held the Raiders to 22 second half points. That effort allowed Jordan to cut the lead to seven but that’s as close as they would get. With the loss Jordan drops to 1-2 in the Minnesota River Conference.
WINNING EFFORT Prior to the Norwood loss, the Hubmen defeated GibbonFairfax-Winthrop 74-54 last Thursday at home to improve to 4-4 on the season. That win comes a week after losing by 20 points to the fi fth-ranked team in Class 2A in Watertown-Mayer. It also comes before Jordan enters a very important stretch in its schedule. Six of its next seven games are against Minnesota River Conference opponents, and the seventh game is against a ranked St. Peter team. That means if they want to be contenders in the MRC, they will have to play well during the next month. If the win against GFW was a sign of things to come, then the Hubmen are in for a good month. “We did an especially good job (last Thursday) of finding ways to make our teammates better, through quality screens and good passes,� Urbanek said. “That represents progress for our team and it was nice to see.� It was a good shooting night for Jordan as they hit 19 of 37 shots from the field to pull away from the Thunderbirds in the second half. Jordan only led 36-29 at halftime but outscored GFW by 13 in the second half to get the 20-point win. “I thought we played very hard and competed at a high level,� Urbanek said. “We had positive contributions from lots of players. We still have lots to work on, but we feel that we are improving and are on the right track.� Micah Hennen led the Hubmen with 19 points. He was followed by Jake Andersen’s 18, Andy Schrader’s and Nick Heitkamp’s 10 points.
So far this is turning out to be the winter without snow all across the United States. As of Christmas we still don’t have any snow on the ground. Oh sure, a few places in the west are enjoying a bit of snow but here in the Midwest and East Coast, forget about it! No snow. Which of course means, everyone is asking me, “So what does the lack of snow mean for the animals and birds?â€? Well, here is the best explanation I can come up with. In regions that normally receive a generous blanket of snow, the lack of snow alters a lot of dynamics in nature. In regions that normally don’t have regular snow fall, obviously it won’’t change a thing. So back to the regions that normally gets snow, which in1cludes most of us. What are the ramifications of no snow? Snow is a blessing and a curse all wrapped up into one frozen package. In nature, rarely is a single event or condition just a good or just a bad thing. It’s usually a mixed bag of good and bad and the lack of snow is no exception. First, the blessings of no snow ‌ A blanket of snow does much for a lot of wildlife. Take snowshoe hares or jackrabbits for example. They turn white in winter to help blend in and hide from predators. So take away a white landscape of snow and these critters stand out like a sore thumb. They are easy pickings for predators. So having no snow is a bad thing for these them.

TEKIELA NATURALIST
Mice, voles, sh rews and other small critters depend upon a nice thick blanket of snow in which to hide or live u nder neat h du ring winter months. These small animals depend upon a blanket of snow for a level of visual protection. They actually move about on the ground underneath the snow where temperatures are moderately warm compared to normal winter air temperatures. The snow also helps to hide them from view while they go about their daily or nightly activities. However predators such as hawks, owls, foxes and coyotes gain a benefit from the snow. These predators are able to hear the small critters under the snow and pounce or punch through the snow to capture their next meal. So the snow works both ways in this scenario. Take away the snow and the small critters remain underground which means they stay away from the predators.

A snowy owl usually relies on a snow white landscape to conceal its movements. Snow also protects many plant species. A blanket of snow acts like a down comforter and will help insulate the ground from extreme cold air temperatures and deep frost. Not that we’ve had any extreme cold temperatures, but you know what I mean. A blanket of snow stops the frost from penetrating deep into the ground and killing the roots of wildf lowers, shrubs and trees. When snow is covering the ground it gives an advantage to animals such as rabbits that travel on the surface of the snow. The deep snow allows the rabbits to reach the stems of bushes that they normally can’t reach. It also allows for the small critters that burrow in the snow to reach the base of young trees and shrubs and chew off the tender bark while remaining hidden by the snow.
These are just a few examples of the Ying and Yang of a winter without any snow. Personally I am OK with the lack of snow. Other than the fact that we can really use the soil moisture, I fi nd it a pleasant change of pace and it makes my job as a wildlife photographer a lot easier but on the other hand it makes it a lot harder. Harder, because at this time of year I can capture winter images, but without the snow it makes it a hard. On the other hand the images I am taking right now look like fall or autumn and that is good too. So there you have it, the lack of snow is good and bad, depending upon your point of view. Until next time... Stan Tekiela is a naturalist from Victoria who travels the United States to study and photograph wildlife.

The window work only scratches the surface of the building’s updates. Linda said it took a lot of work to get interior features like basement beams and water pipes in better shape. When Kim and Linda bought the building in 2001, Randy and Kathy Mattson of Jordan were partners in the endeavor, and Randy also had a hand in some of the early phases of building renovation, according to Linda. “It’s been a long haul getting it to this point,” Linda said. In the new year, Linda said, the goal is to open the upstairs to youth activities like billiards and air hockey.
The River Church of the Open Bible, which used the upstairs of the building, has disbanded, she said, but in the future the space might be used by another church. Carasim Coffee Shop is located in the building by the front door. In January and February, Linda said they plan to hold all-you-can-eat pizza nights on Fridays. “We’re hoping to get more together for youth,” Linda said. Last week, new windows ensured that whatever happens upstairs, it will be warmer because of windows that don’t let in a harsh draft. “It’s exciting to see it finally coming together,” Linda said.

We Want Your Support!!
Here’s how it works: Jeans Day - a day when employees may dress for work in jeans. In return, the employee pays one dollar, which goes to area non-profit organizations. Jeans Day is a way to raise funds for non-profits and at the same time boost employee morale. We like the idea of people of the Greater Southwest Metro area wearing jeans for area non-profits on the last Friday of each month. For the next year we are proposing the following non-profits: January Big Brothers Big Sisters – Starting something since 1904. At Big Brothers Big Sisters, we’ve been impacting the lives of children for over 100 years. And we’re just getting started. For over a century, Big Brothers Big Sisters has been helping change kids’ perspectives and giving them the opportunity to reach their potential. And we have over a century of volunteers, donors, and advocates just like you to thank. More than 100 years later, Big Brothers Big Sisters remains true to our founders’ vision of bringing caring role models into the lives of children. And, today, Big Brothers Big Sisters currently operates in all 50 states—and in 12 countries around the world. www.bigstwincities.org

November Minnesota Adoption Resource Network is committed to the right of every child to a permanent, nurturing family. Since 1980, Minnesota Adoption Resource Network (MARN) has been dedicated to the recruitment of adoptive families for Minnesota waiting children, advocating on behalf of adoptive, kinship and foster families, and maximizing opportunities for successful adoptions. Since we are not a child-placing agency, we can fully advocate for the children needing adoptive families. To many, zero means nothing. At MARN, when it comes to children waiting for families, zero means everything. www. zerokidswaiting.org
December CAP Agency – CAP Agency - Organized in 1965, as part of President Lyndon Johnson’s “War on Poverty” movement, the agency began as the Scott-Carver Economic Council providing co-op farming programs, Head Start and Senior Citizen Centers to residents of Scott and Carver Counties.

Now numerous programs strong, three counties wide and over 40 years old, the CAP Agency offers a varied menu of services in each county, and continues to grow and evolve to reflect its commitment to address the unmet needs of the community. http://preview.capagency.org

outhwest Newspapers will promote Jeans Day and all the participating businesses in each of its seven community newspapers every month. We’ll provide you with Jeans Day stickers for your participating employees to wear. We also will give you “table tents” to explain to customers why employees are dressed casually. Southwest Newspapers retains less than 10% of the donations to cover the cost of stickers, mailings and other promotional material. Southwest Newspapers also donates all the ads placed in the paper promoting Jeans Day. In short, this program will cost you nothing. It will boost employee morale. It will pleasantly unite all of the Greater Southwest Metro area for a worthwhile cause, and hopefully will raise lots of money for local non-profits. If you have any questions or suggestions, please contact Jennifer Sorenson at jsorenson@ swpub.com or 952-3456477. Thanks, Jeans Day Committee
