Council considers amending zoning for auto sales, parking in a structure

“You need to sound tough. In martial arts, you don’t actually have to be tough,” Magers said.

Beyond punching, the lesson was about respect and self confidence.

Another secret – give parents blind respect when asked to do a chore.

Magers then asked students to practice.

Three appointees will seek harmony Commission recommends against Sand and Will, then stages walkout

Indoor auto sales might soon return to historic downtown Jordan.

With the recent purchase of the former Wolf Cabinets building barely in the rearview mirror, the Jordan City Council looked favorably at a proposal to amend the city’s zoning ordinance for its central business district to allow for auto sales and off-street parking within a structure.

One of up to three businesses proposed for the former cabinet shop, car dealer-

ship and grocery store would be a car-buying concierge, said Shakopee’s Shayne Wolf, son of building owner ElRoy Wolf.

“Any new business that can be added to Jordan, in my opinion, is a welcome sight for our community,” Jordan Planning Commissioner Jeff Will said in a phone interview.

Car-buying concierges, a kind of auto brokerage, are popular with deal seekers or those who don’t want to negotiate with a brand-name dealership.

North Memorial Medical Center Paramedic Tim Thorp tests out on Carsyn Mizsak several types of first-aid one might receive, including a pinch for a bleeding nose. He did, however, stop short of actually using a hypodermic needle.

Two candidates for appointment to the Jordan Planning Com mission ca me recommended by the commission.

Last month, the Jordan City Council had other ideas – and acted on them.

On Monday, the council did an about-face, installing Gene Flynn in one of two open commission seats. Late last month, the council chose Tom Sand and Jeff Will to fill out the commission, even though the commis-

sion voted for putting Flynn and Jim Pensyl in the open seats.

“All four are good people, so for me, it’d be difficult to decide,” Councilmember Tanya Velishek said during a late November city council meeting.

Two observing planning commissioners, John Levar and John Watkins, walked out of the meeting – alongside Jordan Community Action Group (JCAG) members – in a display that didn’t sit well with the council.

Naughty or nice? Teachers always encourage Well-behaved students earn gold rewards

BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com

When adults remember what discipline meant in their school days, thoughts of rulers, discipline slips, names on the board, or various forms of public embarrassment might come to mind.

Fewer people recall the day their class was awarded a golden shoe for good hallway behavior.

Last week at Jordan Elementary School, Diana Harper’s second-grade class had the distinction of the Golden Shoe traveling trophy.

The shoe and other rewards like it are part of the Positive Behavior

Kindergarten teacher Ariane Olson shows a slip students receive for good behavior as part of the Positive Behavior Intervention Strategies (PBIS) program. Students take the slip to the office for a golden pencil, and later can show their parents.

Applications for homestead classification with Scott County are due on or before Dec. 15.

Homestead classification will affect the amount of property taxes paid in 2012 and could affect eligibility for a property tax refund. An application must be filed if the following applies: I You purchased a property in the past year and you, or a qualifying relative, occupy the property for homestead purposes on Dec. 1, 2011.

I You, or a qualifying relative occupy a property for homestead purposes on Dec. 1, 2011, and the property was previously classified as non-homestead.

I A qualifying relative for homestead purposes depends on the type of property. For residential property, a qualifying relative can be a parent, stepparent, child, stepchild, grandparent, grandchild, brother, sister, uncle, aunt, nephew, or niece of the owner. This relationship may be by blood or marriage. For agricultural property, a qualifying relative can be a child, grandchild, parent, or sibling of the owner or a child, grandchild, or sibling of the spouse of the owner.

Once homestead classification has been granted, no further applications are necessary unless they are specifically requested by the county assessor.

Applications may be obtained by stopping into Customer Service at the county Government Center or from the county website, www.co.scott.mn.us.

You must also contact the taxation department by Dec. 15 if you are the property owner, or a qualifying relative of the property owner, and the use of the property has changed during the past year.

Those who sell, move or for any reason no longer qualify for the homestead classification are required to notify the county within 30 days of the change in homestead status. A form is available in the Taxation Department or on the website to request the homestead be removed from a property for the next assessment. Failure to notify the county assessor within the 30-day period is punishable by recalculation of the tax as non-homestead; in addition, to a penalty equal to 100 percent of the homestead benefits.

Snowshoeing is a popular activity at the Rapids Lake Unit of the Minnesota National Wildlife Refuge.

Discovering a winter refuge Rapids Lake unit shines in all seasons, even the cold one Celebrate this Holy Season at Shepherd of the Lake Lutheran Church

BY MOLLEE FRANCISCO mfrancisco@swpub.com

T

he prairie is frosted over, the leaves have fallen to the ground. The grasshoppers are long gone and the chickadees are huddling around the birdfeeder. Overhead, the tundra swans are moving south. All those things together can mean only one thing.

“That’s a sure sign of winter,” said Leanne Langeberg, park ranger at the Rapids Lake Unit of the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge. Well, that and the hint of snow on the ground.

There is perhaps no better place to witness the changing of the seasons than at the refuge’s 1,500 acres along the Minnesota River, just south of Carver. Not only does the refuge provide a place to watch the seasons, but it also offers an escape from the hustle bustle of everyday life – especially in winter.

“It’s a great place to get out, get some great winter exercise, get revived,” said Langeberg.

While winter might not be the refuge’s most popular season for visitors, Langeberg said that shouldn’t keep people from making the drive to their off-the-beaten-track locale.

“There are some amazing things you can do here,” she said.

The refuge is open daily from sunrise to sunset and entry is free. The Rapids Lake Education and Visitor Center is staffed during the winter, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Mondays through Fridays. When the building is open, visitors are welcome to come in and check out a pair of snowshoes for free (provided no school classes are using them).

Snowshoes provide a great way to explore the refuge’s acreage. The refuge offers the occasional organized snowshoe event for those who aren’t ready to brave the landscape on their own. The next winter wildlife snowshoe and explore event will take place from 10:30 a.m. to noon on Dec. 29. Another one will follow from 1:30-3 p.m. on Jan. 23.

Langeberg said that cross-country skiing and hiking are also popular winter activities at the refuge, although she notes that they do not groom any trails.

“The trail is wide open to explore,” she said.

A 1/2-mile loop trail takes visitors through the forest understory while a 3/4-mile walk will lead to the Carver Rapids the refuge unit is named for. The rapids are particularly visible since the river is so low.

“The flooding (followed by a large drop in river levels) has created a landscape that is just amazing,” Langeberg said.

Wild land is closer than you might think The Rapids Lake Education and Visitor Center is three miles south of Carver on Carver Highlands Drive

WILDLIFE For those that make the trek to the Carver Rapids unit, there is much to see apart from the bluff and prairie terrain and the winding Minnesota River.

“The big focus is on birds out here,” said Langeberg. Chickadees, nuthatches, pileated woodpeckers and even the occasional bard owl grace the landscape with their presence.

“The bald eagles come and sit in the tree tops.”

The refuge will host a bird watching for beginners class from 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. on Jan. 7. The class, led by refuge naturalist Craig Mandel, is one of many that refuge volunteers offer throughout the year.

On the other hand, self-led walks allow visitors to explore the refuge at their own pace. In winter, even a short walk through the refuge lands can result in plenty of wildlife signs, Langeberg said. Deer tracks, rabbit prints and mouse tunnels are all regular sightings during the winter months.

It makes the refuge a popular location for area schools, many of which make several trips to the refuge throughout the year to do their own version of “Wildlife Scene Investigation” – a play on the popular television show CSI. “They love the little wonders of wildlife,” Langeberg said of the students.

And many of them make sure to bring back their parents and introduce them to the refuge. Seeing families enjoy the refuge together is a great sight for rangers like Langeberg.

“This is yours,” she said of the refuge.

“Come use it.”

For those who do, Langeberg has one word of advice: “Bring your cameras.

There’s always something new and exciting.”

EDITORIAL

Deficient bridges: City, state take steps to fix alarming trend Go ahead, take an alarming situation lightly if you prefer.

But the Jordan City Council is doing its part to fi x one structurally deficient bridge under its control – and the Minnesota Department of Transportation is leading the charge here and throughout the rest of the Twin Cities.

Jordan has two deficient bridges in its downtown area. One of those – the access to the Mini-Met ballpark – has become one of the most pressing issues in the city.

About $1 million is the latest estimate to replace the Rice Street bridge, City Engineer Tim Loose said.

The Rice Street bridge was built with recycled steel in 1936.

It carries 80 vehicles a day, according to 1996 numbers, and has a sufficiency rating fo 32.5 on a 100-point scale, Loose said.

Traversing the Rice Street bridge in your personal vehicle is not dangerous, officials have said, but the garbage trucks, beer trucks, and buses that frequent the ballpark have been restricted from their only access.

The Varner Street bridge over Sand Creek is next.

It carries 3,360 vehicles daily, and it has a sufficiency rating of 75.3, according to 1989 numbers, Loose said.

Any rating below 80 constitutes a deficient bridge, according to MnDOT. MnDOT is expected to contribute to each of these projects – fi rst and foremost, the Rice Street bridge replacement.

The city will fund a portion of the roadwork and the enhancements to the bridge.

Since the collapse of the I-35W bridge, the state has replaced 59 deficient bridges. It has scheduled replacement of 75 more.

PART OF THE SOLUTION Jordan’s sma l l but expensive bridge projects are each part of a larger bridge replacement effort by the state. We all remember the collapse of the Interstate 35W bridge in Minneapolis. Surely, images of a cracked bridge and cars sinking into the Mississippi River are etched in our minds. At times, we’ve questioned our unwitting confidence in the very structures on which we carry our families each day. And we don’t want another catastrophe to happen again.

To this end, MnDOT has plenty to do.

One in every 17, almost 6 percent, of the most highly trafficked bridges in Minnesota has been deemed structurally deficient, according to study released last month by Transportation for America. The Twin Cities ranks only 18th among metro areas

Repair or replace More than 69,000 U.S. bridges have been rated structurally deficient. It would take more than $70 billion to repair or replace them all.

with populations of 2 million or more, according to the study.

We are far better than the norm.

Nationwide, one in every nine bridges has been rated deficient.

But that doesn’t change the fact that in the Twin Cities metropolitan area, 154 bridges enabling more than 1.8 million vehicle trips a day are structurally deficient.

The state’s work cannot be done soon enough.

Washington-based coalition Transportation for American formed in the 1950s, intent on building the interstate highway system. The coalition continues to push for transportation reform, including a fix-it-first philosophy and government that prioritizes its transportation based not on politics but on the merits of each proposed project.

WHAT TO DO So you can blink at the high price tag for building a new bridge to the Mini-Met; leave it to others to worry about the safety of those who frequent the ballgames, skate park and police garage.

You can say that the city’s money would be best used somewhere else – although if you look into it, MnDOT dollars won’t be available without a transportation project and it might be tricky to transfer city transportation money into another pot.

And you could argue that the bridge is a historical monument that warrants preservation efforts.

All of your arguments against the project would have merit, but the common-sense decision by the city council also is worthy in light of a much larger issue facing our nation: Our state and city are responsible for taking care of the roads and bridges that we’ve already built.

It’s good to see the city follow through on a 1936 promise to give people safe access to their ballpark.

Building a new Rice Street bridge is a move that has turned out to be one small part of the solving a big-picture problem.

Giving those in need a merry Christmas Like many Minnesotans, I am a proud and grateful grandparent.

Whether I am hunting and fishing with my grandkids or playing games and helping them with homework when Vicky and I visit, we cherish the memories with all four family blessings.

It seems like just yesterday when they, nestled on my lap, were bursting with unbridled excitement and enthusiasm on Christmas to tear off the gift wrapping and unveil the surprises that awaited them. But in no time at all, the annual opening of Legos, Tonka trucks, and Barbie Dolls has given way to the sights and sounds of the latest electronic gadgets.

Throughout our lives, most of us have captured the memorable vision of children still in their pajamas sprinting down the stairway to the Christmas tree to discover what gift-wrapped surprises awaited. Every child should be able to experience that memorable joy.

In our household, the Christmas season provides an opportunity to reflect on our many blessings and celebrate what is most important to us: faith, family, friends, and the freedoms we enjoy. The holidays also give us an opportunity to reflect on our less fortunate neighbors and consider ways we can help ease their burdens.

By now most – if not all – of us have been touched in some way by the economic challenges facing our nation. Across the country,

KLINE unemployment has been too high for too long and Minnesotans are not immune to the downturn.

The debate on how this happened and, more importantly, what to do to help our economy so job creators can do what they do best – create jobs – can be saved for another day. What cannot be ignored are the many Minnesota families who are trying to figure out how they can purchase gas and groceries while still making their monthly mortgage payments – let alone a special gift for their child.

As Christmas approaches, I ask that you join me in easing their minds.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR THE ECONOMY

Protect middle class by extending payroll tax cut To the editor: If the payroll tax cut is not extended, a family earning an income of $50,000 will see a $1,000 increase in their taxes.

Congress has less than a month to extend President Obama’s payroll tax cuts to stimulate the economy. At a time when families are barely eking out a living, we stand to gain a potential $1,500 back versus having to pay an additional $1,000 in taxes.

This is real money for families.

We, as the middle class, have little left to give. Yet those in the 1 percent can afford to pay their fair share.

RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION

PBIS

The positive spin on standardized tests

continued from page 1

49 of 61 RTI students make strides on tests

BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

The proof is in the numbers.

Response to Intervention (RTI) offers a positive spin on the annually dreaded release of standardized test results.

This school year, 49 of 61 Jordan Middle School students who participated in the program meant to help struggling students improved their Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment scores, said Renae Delamarter, one of the program’s two teachers.

“By the end of the year, you see the child soar,” fi fthgrade teacher Joan Dresow said. “I feel really good about the program.”

Fifth- and sixth-graders’ reading scores showed the biggest improvements, Delamarter said. Many of the RTI students were posting low Ds in their classes, but they worked hard and met standards.

This year, the midd le school saw a 3 percent increase in the number of students who met reading standards, Delamarter said.

“It’s really hard to do,” she said. “Not ever yone went up.”

Delamarter and Emily Spillman, who joined RTI a little more than a year ago, said they intervene at the earliest possible indication that a student shows signs of falling behind in class.

“It’s basically if you are struggling, where can you get help?” Delamarter said.

If a child needs special education or already has an individualized education plan (IEP), they are referred to the special education department. RTI focuses on struggling students who don’t qualify for special education programs, Delamarter said.

RTI is specialized, Delamarter said, and anyone who isn’t meeting reading or math standards can take part.

DRIVEN BY DATA

“ We’ve t r ie d a lot of things,” middle school Principal Lance Chambers said.

“It’s hit and miss.”

RTI started with just Delamarter, then added Spillman and help with math in January 2011. Delamarter works with children struggling in math, and Spillman teaches reading.

They are two great individuals, Chambers said. “It’s always about how to make kids better.”

Jordan Superintendent Kirk Nelson said test scores bear witness to the success of the research-based RTI program.

When a child comes to RTI, Spillman and Delamarter take a look at the student’s Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment (MCA) and Northwest Evaluation Association (NWEA) test scores, talk to teachers, look at the students’ grades, and try to fi nd out what they do in the classroom.

“Maybe you’re a fantastic fluid reader, but you’re not understanding everything,” Spillman said, offering an example.

In such a case, RTI suggests strategies and practice skills in small groups.

A low score on a standardized test might’ve been merely caused by a bad testing day, Spillman said, but not always. “Usually, you can see a trend for these kiddos,” she added.

FOCUS ON TYPE 2 In order to help the school and district meet state standards, RTI targets Type 2 students.

“We can make a difference in a year,” Delamarter said.

Dresow said she is pleased with the improvements she has seen, and she attributes them to RTI. Ninety-three percent of her class met standards – “amazing,” Dresow said.

The individualized nature of RTI has been a “huge factor in it,” she added. “They had their needs met.”

Some students just need a cheerleader or someone to set goals with them, Dresow said. “They’re looking at the whole child.”

Children run to Spillman and Delamarter to tell the RTI teachers about their successes, Dresow said.

Still, there are large numbers of students grades 5-8 that could use additional academic help, Delamarter said. “We can’t reach everybody. (We try to) touch the ones we can.”

ARE THEY AT RISK? RTI helps three types of so-called academically atrisk students: Type 1 is the most at risk. They have not met standards for multiple years, and their test scores trend downward. Their classroom work is below average, and their grades are Cs or lower.

Type 2 is “medium at risk,” according to Delamarter. Previous test scores f luctuate from par tial ly meeting standards to meeting standards, or “borderline average” test scores.

They display inconsistent classroom work.

Type 3 is the least at risk.

Previous test scores meet standards or are average for their grade level or goals.

They get Bs in classes.

W hen an intervention strateg y is developed, it combines school and home settings, especially with Type 1 students, Delamarter said.

Type 3 students are monitored, and referred back to RTI if they are not doing well in the classroom.

MARKET THE SUCCESS Delamarter and Spillman spoke to the Jordan School Board in mid-November, and Chairman Dan Buresh asked about tracking the improvements among students using the RTI program.

He said that the positive results should be publicized on the school district’s website, because when he asked coworkers at his new job how they pick a school district, they all had the same answer: “Test scores.”

Teachers learn to consistently reward students for specific good behavior in hopes of improving behavior.

They also customize the rewards based on what works in their specific school.

“It’s really focusing on the positive, whether it’s a classwide or school-wide positive,” kindergarten teacher Ariane Olson said.

Olson is on the committee that helps implement the program at the elementary school, and she’s also had experience with it in a previous district. Jordan’s program is two years old and has been used elsewhere with success.

“It’s a big initiative. Lots of schools around the state have taken it on, because it works,” Olson said.

The goal is consistent expectations across all areas of the school, like classrooms, lunchrooms, restrooms, hallways or the playground.

Olson said she’s seen improvements, even in individual students. Struggling students see how others are complimented on specific good behaviors and improve their own behavior, she said.

Positivity seems to catch on.

“The best part is to watch them congratulate each other.

They really say ‘good job,’” Olson said.

The program can look different at different schools.

The elementary school, in addition to the Golden Shoe award, has a Golden Tray award for good lunchroom behavior by a grade level, with the winning grade getting extra time on the playground.

“You can find something positive with even the toughest kids,” Olson said.

Individuals are awarded “Caught cha being good!” slips to take to the office and home to parents, and they get a golden pencil at the office.

The school even ordered gold-colored coins – in other contexts, poker chips – that students get for being good.

Principal Stacy DeCorsey said she ordered them online.

“I’m not kidding, kids think these are million-dollar gold coins,” DeCorsey said.

The school has once-amonth assemblies to promote school spirit, and they’ve started singing the school song.

Andrew Cunat and Bella Roberts are the line leaders in Diana Harper’s secondgrade class, which got the Golden Shoe reward for good hallway behavior at Jordan Elementary School.

Of course, there are ways to measure success when it comes to behavior. DeCorsey tracks student data, including referrals, using an internet based school-wide data system.

“Honestly, here we’ve been doing really well,” DeCorsey said.

The PBIS program wasn’t started because of any serious discipline breakdown at the school. DeCorsey said she didn’t have a lot of discipline incidents before PBIS. But she looked at the buzz the program was getting at other schools.

“I thought, You know what?

I think this would be good for us,” DeCorsey said.

So far, she said it’s changed the culture in the building.

Staff members keep trying to keep the program fresh. The gold coins and Gold Shoe were new this year. Once a month, five students get to each lunch with DeCorsey. Students at lunch also get to be guest servers if they’re caught being good.

In the future, there could be something called a Power Tower that holds crumpledup good behavior slips. At a certain level, there might be a school-wide “Hokey Pokey” in the snow.

Whatever the program looks like, the bones remain the same – positivity apparently pays off when it comes to good behavior.

“I think the teachers will just keep pushing,” DeCorsey said.

HEALTH FAIR continued from page 1

“Yes, sir!” students yelled.

The self-defense class and its lessons were part of the middle school health fair on Nov. 30.

The health fair happens every two years and brings in outside experts. This year, the fair was less like a trade show and more resembled miniature courses on a variety of subjects.

Students had nearly 30 options for in-classroom sessions that had tie-ins to some aspect of health.

Sessions included first-aid, substance abuse education, time with a dietician, Zumba, education on bullying, and even optional vision and dental screening for students.

“It’s been a great day,” said physical education teacher Colleen Chambers, who helps organize the event. Students also prepare for the day.

It all began with motivational speaker Sam Glen. In an assembly the next day, students yelled out a oneword summary of what they took from his presentation: Courage.

“He gave the most entertaining, inspiring talk,” Chambers said.

Next, students heard an hour-long presentation on cyber bullying.

Then, it was off to learn about health topics.

In one room, students could be found giving chest compressions to dummies.

The class was meant teach how to respond to victims of sudden cardiac arrest.

Two survivors shared their stories, and students heard about how chest compressiononly cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is the standard response in the first

WHEN PUSH COMES TO PULL Recent research lends credence to the notion that eye exercises may help individuals overcome a condition called “sensory eye dominance.” This eye condition involves an imbalance between the vision strength of the eyes, which leads to impairment of fine depth perception. In extreme cases, the imbalance is similar to amblyopia (commonly known as “lazy eye”), which affects two to three percent of children in the United States. According to a recent study, researchers were able to correct the condition using a push-pull training method. This eye exercise involves making the weaker eye work harder while the stronger eye is suppressed.

Doing so reduces the inhibitory effect that the stronger eye exerts on the weaker eye.

It is important to stay informed in order to keep the eyes of you and your family healthy and stylish, in a friendly and comfortable environment. Every patient is offered an eye exam, and provided with premium products and enhanced technology. We are located at 223 E. First Street, Suite 101. Call for your eye exam today at (952) 492-2350!

P.S. Researchers hope to adapt the push-pull training method mentioned above to treat children with amblyopia.

A letter to parents detailed the bus changes that are in store beginning Jan. 2, as a result of Jordan Elementary School’s four-day late start this school year due to mold cleanup.

The four days equaled 24 hours of missed instructional time, notes the letter, which was posted on the school’s Facebook page.

Starting next year, elementary students will be dismissed from school 15 minutes later than usual, until June 6.

The letter stated that bus loading will be turned around so that Jordan Middle School students are loaded before elementary students.

Parents of students riding bus nos. 68, 73, 78 and 82 should plan on kids getting home a few minutes later than usual.

School read-a-thon brings in $20,000 Jordan Elementary School’s read-a-thon raised more than $20,000 for Parents Taking Action (PTA).

Principal Stacy DeCorsey said that students asked friends, family members and neighbors to sponsor them with a cash donation, as the students read for an afternoon.

“We are thrilled that students will no longer need to go out and sell product for the PTA yearly fund-raiser at the elementary,” DeCorsey wrote in a report to the Jordan School Board last month.

Man arrested for meth possession

PHOTO BY SHANNON FIECKE

Carver County 911 Telecommunicator Linda Mullenbach awaits a call last Tuesday. If Scott and Carver Counties merge their dispatch centers, one would have to close.

A 25-year-old Jordan man was arrested for possession of methamphetamine in Chaska Wednesday, Nov. 30, according to the Southwest Metro Drug Task Force.

The arrest occurred about 2 p.m. at a SuperAmerica station near the intersection of County Road 61 and Audubon Road.

Noe Sifuentes was charged with third-degree controlled substance possession.

Counties eye 911 dispatch merger

BY SHANNON FIECKE sfiecke@swpub.com

Emergency dispatchers in Scott County could be taking 911 calls from residents in Carver County, or vice versa, in the future under a merger being considered by the neighboring counties.

Supervisors from the two sheriff’s offices met with commissioners from each county last T uesday in Chaska to share steps they are taking to learn what it would take, and how much they could save, by melding the two counties’ 911 dispatch services.

It’s too early for defi nitive cost-saving figures, but Carver County Commissioner Randy Maluchnik said following the meeting that he’s hopeful the counties could save up to a halfmillion dollars per year if they consolidate. “ T h ree to si x p eople on duty, 24/7, that could be a lot of potential savings,” Scott C ou nt y B o a r d C h a i r Tom Wolf said.

Last year, the counties of Scott, Sibley, McLeod and Carver completed a $125,000 statefunded consolidation study of their dispatching services.

Sibley and McLeod were content with their situation, Scott County Sheriff Kevin Studnicka said, but Carver and Scott thought consolidation was worth a closer look.

“We’re only 3 to 4 miles – as the crow flies – away from each other,” Studnicka said.

The counties must determine which dispatch center would be best to close and how technology would be merged.

Two architectural firms are developing schematic designs to determine the costs of expansion at either site. Each

center is less than 10 years old and has at least some room for expansion.

There are many models for consolidation, said Carver County Chief Sheriff’s Deputy Blair Anderson, who explained that the state study brought out a lot unanswered questions. He said the counties must very methodological as they analyze how to consolidate the systems.

“We want to make sure we do this right so we don’t leave a mess for those behind us,” Anderson said.

The biggest cost savings would be in technology, Carver County Sheriff Jim Olson said.

Both agencies will soon need a new phone system or upgrade, which cou ld cost $ 3 0 0,0 0 0.

Between the two, they are also facing the replacement of 15 radio consoles, which cost more than $100,000 apiece. Fewer consoles would be required with just one dispatch center, the sheriffs said.

The Scott County Sheriff’s Office has an antiquated records-management system, which would cost $ 5 million to $8 million to replace, Studnicka said. It is used across

the sheriff’s office operation.

Carver County’s system is more modern and possibly could be shared by Scott County.

Wolf said he called up the Carver County Board chairman and other Carver County commissioners a few months ago to gauge if there’d be enough political support across the river to consider a merger.

“I kept hearing that some (people) were against it, that it wasn’t going to happen because of political lines and red tape,” Wolf said. “I called up Randy (Maluchnik) and said, ‘Can we take a look at this again?’ He said, ‘In the face of where we’re at, absolutely we should.’ ” Anderson, who experienced a dispatch consolidation within Dakota County, warned that the counties will have to be mindful of the psychological impact of a merger on employees.

“W herever it lands, one group will feel like an outcast,” he said. “We don’t want to underestimate those things.”

Scott County Commissioner Dave Menden of Shakopee said he’s heard both positive and negative opinions on the Dakota County consolidation.

There will always be malcontents, Anderson said, but he found that the overwhelming majority in Dakota County were happy with the move.

Studnicka said that any negative comments might concern one city that pays more for emergency response due to additional vehicles being dispatched.

Anderson estimated it would be several years before a merger could occur between Carver and Scott.

Commissioners gave their tacit support for the concept last Tuesday. Maluchnik said he’s heard of dispatch consolidation efforts failing in other parts of the state.

“If there’s not the political will to do this, we should think about that and let folks know before (time and effort are expended),” Maluchnik said.

There are 31 dispatchers employed between the two counties.

However, officials expect no layoffs due to natural attrition, retirement and employees who would not want to be part of the merged system.

Richard Crawford contributed to this report.

force said about 3.5 grams of meth were confiscated. That amount would have a street value estimated at $400.

About six squad cars were involved with the arrest.

Drug task force member Mark Williams of the Carver County Sheriff’s Office said three other people were in the vehicle with Sifuentes. There were no other arrests.

COMMISSION

continued from page 1

continued from page 1

ROOM FOR 37 In mid-November, the 1930 structure in downtown Jordan sold in two pieces – one at 116 Water St. for $94,000, the one at 116 First St. for $124,900.

“I’d prefer to put old classics in there,” Shayne Wolf told the council on Monday.

The wholesale auto dealership could house up to 50 vehicles in the 8,000-squarefoot building, but Wolf said the business is expected to remodel some office space that would not house cars.

“It would be more around 37 vehicles, which also depends on the size of the vehicle,” Senior City Planner Joe Janish wrote in a Dec. 5 memorandum to the council.

“I think that’d be pushing it, to be honest,” Wolf said.

Some of the sales will go directly to customers.

The business would fi nd specific kinds of vehicles for its customers, clean them up, and resell them for a fee, City Attorney Annette Margarit said. Cars would be stored in the building but also buffed, waxed, or detailed, she added.

No odors or pollution will be allowed, Margarit said.

No body work would take place on the property, Wolf said, and none of the cars will be fi xed-up wrecks sold to the general public.

It’s an auto brokerage with a set markup, Wolf said. “I’m not looking to do restoration.”

Mayor Pete Ewals noted that the city once had a downtown auto dealership, but this proposal is different.

“It’s really not the same thing,” he predicted. “… We’re turning the building into a storage facility. There isn’t going to be any sales.”

Wolf said the building would provide mid- to long-term storage of for-sale vehicles that otherwise would be “taking up valuable garage space.”

The business will store “anything with wheels” and broker the vehicles during storage, Wolf said.

Ewals had suggested that the city purchase the building for a library. Six months ago, others wanted it to be the new police station, Councilmember Mike Shaw said.

WHAT ELSE? Wolf described the car-buying concierge business at length this week, but he did not describe the second business that is coming and alluded to the potential for a third business. Just what else will occupy the building is unclear.

When the building was listed for sale by Bumblebee Properties of New Prague, the 4,720-square-foot First Street (north) side of the building was listed as “business opportunity/office/retail” and the 3,286-square-foot Water Street (south) side as “office/retail/ shopping center/other.”

The listing said: “Many uses can work here. Bring your ideas. Great value.”

The north side of the building was on the market for 752 days and dropped from its original listing price of $275,000 in 2009.

The south side of the building was on the market for 402 days and dropped from its original listing price of $109,900 in 2010.

The listing said that the building – which has 11-foot ceilings, a new roof and a partial basement – would be split.

One unique feature is its access to both Water and First streets, Shaw said. Wolf said he’d like to keep both accesses, but he said the better access enters onto Water Street on the south side.

It also said that new heating and air conditioning would be added before the sale.

There is no underground drainage for cars, Wolf said.

Other businesses comes into the building will comply with the zoning ordinance, Wolf said.

LIMITATIONS On Monday, the council voted 6-1 to approve the fi rst reading of the amended ordinance, allowing indoor auto sales in Jordan’s downtown. Ewals opposed the measure.

The planning commission added two provisions – that such a use only occur in buildings with existing overhead garage doors, and that pedestrians be notified when vehicles leave the garage.

Because of the sometimes-heavy pedestrian traffic and the sidewalks abutting both garage doors, the commission recommended that signs, striping, and an audible alert be added to the building, features that Wolf said were “not that expensive.”

BLURRED VISION Councilmember Thom Boncher said that indoor auto sales are not within the vision set forth during the recent Community Growth Options process.

“No, that doesn’t count anymore,” he said. “… It strikes me that the CGO was just a monumental waste of time.”

Boncher said he’d like the city to use a conditional-use permit (CUP) to allow such a business, instead of making it a permitted use with limitations, as the planning commission proposed.

“It’d give us a lot more control, for one thing,” Boncher said.

Wolf asked that he not be required to undergo the “pain and suffrage” of a CUP. The planning commission held a public hearing on the subject last week, and although commissioners discussed the possibility of a CUP, Ewals was the only member of the commission to vote against the amendment.

“There’s all kinds of issues,” Ewals said.

The proposed ordinance must undergo a second reading and appropriate publication before going into effect.

“I’m really disappointed they walked out,” Velishek said.

Levar and Watkins resig ned after the Nov. 21 meeting, and Councilmember Joe Thill called Flynn to verify his continued interest in the commission seat.

Thill did not call Pensyl, yet the commission remains one member short. A lthough it can operate without seven seats full, that is not preferable.

Last week, Sand and Will attended their first planning commission meeting. The special meeting happened to consist of a limited agenda.

“It was a nice way to ease into the learning curve,” Will said in a phone interview. “I want to proceed as normal.”

Next Tuesday, Dec. 13, Flynn takes his seat on the commission.

VOTES FOR, AGAINST This week, the council voted 6-1, with Mayor Pete Ewals dissenting, to appoint Flynn.

Last month, a motion to appoint Flynn and Pensyl failed on a 4-2 vote. Velishek, Thill and fellow councilmembers Sally Schultz and Mike Shaw opposed the measure.

Councilmember Jeremy Goebel was absent from the November meeting.

Later that meeting, a motion to appoint Sand and Will passed 3-2.

Ewals and Councilmember Thom Boncher were opposed, and Velishek abstained from the vote.

“I abstained for a reason – because it was subjective for both ways,” Velishek clarified this week. “… Is this subjective? Is it not? Is this politics? Is it not?”

The planning commission most recently interviewed four candidates. Flynn came in for two interviews, after being once recommended by the commission but then denied by the council. During an earlier round of interviews, a fi fth candidate was questioned in front of a large audience, the members of which chastised him for controversial Internet posts; the council decided that the interview had been botched and asked for a redo, but the fi fth candidate did not reapply once the position reopened.

Planning commissioners receive a $20 stipend for meetings they attend.

ON PENSYL It was great to have four applications for the planning commission, Velishek said last month. “I think all four have a commitment to Jordan.”

Pensyl, who has lived in Jordan for six years, works for a major healthcare benefits company, has experience as an air traffic controller, coaches summer softball, and served two years as president of a townhouse association, according to his application.

“My experiences … along with my own exploratory nature give me a keen awareness of systems and subsystems, their interactions, relationships and weaknesses,” Pensyl wrote. “This ability translates nicely into viewing the system of Jordan as a city of people, community, business, public services, infrastructure and recreation.”

Velishek talked about how she believes planning commissioners should have the ability and willingness to work with others, and that the commission needs to consist of people with a wide variety of perspectives.

Then, she said, “I’m leaning toward another recommendation.”

Thill said that because of his experience and history with Flynn and Pensyl, he could not accept the nominations.

“My head’s not with this one, with these two candidates,” Thill said.

Boncher said that the council twice asked for the planning commission’s recommendation, which the council twice received.

He added that the city staff voiced no opposition to the recommendations, and the council said that all four applicants are good ones.

“Now, we’re going to say, ‘Sorry, we don’t like your recommendation,’” Boncher said. “… I don’t get this. What’s the problem?”

Boncher also asked for Pensyl, who was in the audience last month, to be allowed to speak to the council, but Schultz and Shaw said the public-comment portion of the meeting was over.

This week, Ewals pushed for Pensyl to be appointed to the commission.

MOVE TO DISBAND After failing to appoint Flynn and Pensyl last month, Boncher made a motion to disband the planning commission.

“We have insulted the planning commission,” he said.

State law requires that the city have a planning commission, City Administrator Ed Shukle interrupted.

Ewals called Boncher out of order. Boncher’s motion failed for lack of a second.

After a motion to appoint Will and Sand, Boncher tried to continue, but Ewals used his gavel to silence the councilmember.

Later in the meeting, Thill said that he knows another two-time applicant to the planning commission who wasn’t appointed either time – “and I wasn’t insulted personally,” he added, pointing out that he’d been the applicant who was twice denied.

“And I was denied a seat, too,” Velishek said this week.

ON FLYNN This week, Ewals cried foul when Thill moved to appoint Flynn. The council isn’t following proper protocol in appointing commissioners, the mayor said.

“It’s getting worse,” Ewals said. “…

We’re not treating them the same.”

Boncher asked if the appointment process does not require job postings and interviews for the openings.

“Mr. Flynn is still out there. He’s been interviewed,” said Thill, who called Flynn on Monday and Tuesday, before and after the appointment.

Flynn, who has lived in Jordan for 12 years, is a cabinet carpenter, and Jordan Friends of the Library member, and two-time city council candidate who also organized an outdoor movie in Jordan in 2009, according to his application to sit on the commission.

“I want to help accomplish the goals of the community, and I hope to learn how the city operates in more detail,” Flynn wrote. “I believe we have a lot of citizens who love our town and help make it great.”

Flynn, in a phone interview, described himself as a pro-business commissioner who stands on a foundation of beliefs and is open to citizen input.

“I’m excited about the experience and to work with everybody,” he said. “I listen to every idea and every option before I make a decision.

That’s the best way to make a decision. I think I can work with people.

I don’t hold grudges against people.

It’s not about the person, it’s about the ideas and what idea is best.”

Ewals suggested that, as a matter of equality, the council appoint both Flynn and Pensyl.

Goebel, who this week also expressed disappointment with the process, tossed his full support to Flynn, saying that anybody who would still be interested in the open commission seat “after this circus” must be passionate about his application.

ON SAND & WILL The candidates Shaw knows were not originally chosen by the planning commission.

“Two I know. Two I don’t know,” he said last month.

Velishek offered her solution to Shaw’s issue: Why not interview commission candidates at the council level?

“I would like to see maybe the four candidates come in,” she added.

Ewals said that city ordinance requires a recommendation from the commission before appointments.

Shaw said he hadn’t heard whether the commission’s vote was unanimous (it was, Ewals said) nor what discussion occurred prior to the commission’s recommendations.

“I know two of them. Two of them, I don’t,” Boncher retorted, before Ewals gavel silenced him again.

“We can cancel each other’s vote,” Shaw snapped back at Boncher.

“That’s fair.”

Schultz said that the council can make appointments. The planning commission made a recommendation, but “no one’s guaranteed an appointment,” she added.

Sand, who has lived in Jordan for 35 years, is a retired schoolteacher, union negotiator and coach with experience on the cable commission, Jordan Community Education Advisory Council (chairman), and the joint powers board. He said he wants to continue to be a problem solver, according to his application.

“I want to be part of a committee that works in harmony with the city council and does its best to advance a positive future for the city of Jordan,” he wrote.

Will, who has lived in Jordan for 51 years, is the president of W.W. Will & Sons Distributing, a snowmobile and fi rearms safety instructor, and head coach of the trapshooting team at Jordan High School, according to his application.

He wants “to aid those who want to make Jordan their home and take pride in the community” and “to help implement the goals of Jordan and attract businesses,” he wrote.

“That will be helpful to the residents of Jordan.”

Will, whose wife Tammy decided to give up her seat on the Jordan School Board at the end of the year, said by phone that his “major asset” is bringing a business owner’s perspective to the planning commission.

He has built and co-owns a business, so he’s been through the planning process. His experience should allow him to come up with questions that others might not think to ask, Will said.

Commissioners’ conduct should speak for itself, Will added. “Watch what I do and not what other people say, and then make your decision about whether it was a correct appointment or not.”

Will admitted that the new commissioners are likely to learn the job on the fly, but he said that he doesn’t foresee inevitable conflicts on the horizon.

Sand said that their fi rst planning commission meeting went on without a hitch.

“If the common goal is to do what is best for the Jordan residents, there should not be a conflict,” Will said. “Let’s move on. I want to get things done.”

But, Will added, there will be times at which “I will be defending my position vigorously.”

WALKOUT W hile the council discussed appointing Will and Sand to the commission last month, roughly half of the audience got up and left, including Levar and Watkins, who commission chairman Rolf Hafslund called well-respected, highly qualified commissioners.

After the walkout, Mike Nevins of JCAG stayed in the front row of the audience, making gestures, even in reaction to Jordan Police Chief Bob Ma l z’s public war ning that such behavior might be grounds for removal from the city hall.

Only one planning commissioner, Hafslund, stayed to participate in what was scheduled to be a joint work session between the city council and one of its advisory commissions. Ewals serves as the council liaison to the commission.

As the crowd dispersed, Ewals asked those who exiting to quiet down, and then gave Boncher the floor.

Boncher expressed his concern that the council is so willing to insult people, especially city commissioners, who do a lot of the grunt work of city business before their recommendations reach the council.

“It’s tedious work, but important,” Goebel agreed this week.

“This (appointment process) smacks of irony.”

Last month, Velishek said that she spent the weeks before the scheduled work session seeking out the opinions of the planning commissioners before making her decisions about appointments.

Velishek said that she is making a conscious effort to respect the commission’s decisions, learn from where it is coming, and sometimes agree to disagree.

Hafslund said the planning commissioners must’ve been “dismayed at the decision” to go against the commission recommendation.

Sand said in a phone interview that he can see why the commissioners were upset. It seems like the council shoots down everything, he added.

T he com mission, t hough, is strictly advisory, so “if you don’t like that role, run for city council,” Sand said by phone.

Members of the commission have strong opinions and should attend any joint work sessions to voice them, Hafslund told the council last month.

While reminding that commissioners’ opinions have merit, Hafslund said: “None of us on there are irreplaceable. At some point, when I’m not on (the commission), they’ll move on.”

Several councilmembers said that they understood the commissioners’ perspective, but it was Goebel and Velishek who gave out the tongue lashings this week.

“You hired people you knew,” Goebel said, implicating Shaw, “and that’s wrong.”

“In your opinion,” Shaw said, as Ewals’ gaveled him twice. “In your opinion.”

“I would’ve quit that night,” Goebel said. “… You can’t undermine them every time.”

Velishek said that last month the council needed the expert opinions of the commissioners who walked out – “that’s just quitting your community,” she shamed.

AT ODDS This isn’t the fi rst time the council and commission have found themselves at odds. That’s why they called the joint work session – to work out some issues and develop rapport.

“There’s not harmony,” Sand said by phone.

Instead of letting political drama balloon, city officials should “put your best argument forward,” Flynn said by phone. “That’s why the city’s kind of at a standstill.”

Senior City Planner Joe Janish told the council last month that the planning commission is most alarmed about the application of the city’s recently instituted but rarely enforced architectural design guidelines.

The commissioners who left before the council work session missed some discussion, but not the extent to which councilmembers said they want.

Hafslund repeated what Ewals has often relayed to the council in the past: The city crafted an ordinance to create certain uniform looks in the downtown and highway commercial districts that are being interpreted contrary to what the planning commissioners meant when they wrote the ordinance.

“I hope I didn’t vote for having (highway commercial) be the same as downtown,” Shaw said.

He meant to say that he doesn’t think that the downtown and highway commercial districts need to complement each other, Shaw said this week. “Even though the ordinance may say that, I don’t feel that they should.”

Shaw added his clarified comments to the Nov. 21 meeting minutes, which passed Monday.

Last month, Hafslund and the council talked about several private businesses’ projects as they relate to the city’s strict architectural guidelines: Broadway Market and Jim Terwedo’s building containing Jordan Legal Center complement the look of St. John the Baptist Catholic Church and other downtown buildings, Shaw said.

In penning the architectural guidelines, the planning commission thought its task was to “carry that look throughout their community,” Hafslund said.

Shaw brought up that when plans for a new Jordan Dental Care building in the highway commercial district passed, city officials kept hearing the same complaint: Which other building out there represents the historic downtown area? Shaw said that only a few of the highway commercial district buildings look historical.

The dentist office will don a red tile roof and have several other distinctive architectural features.

Hafslund said there is nothing the city can do to change the existing buildings, but the architectural guidelines were meant “just to tie these two parts of town together. …

A red roof does not meet the code.”

The council has made an exception to its relatively new rules.

Schultz brought up the design of the proposed medical clinic in the highway commercial district.

“It’s very contemporary,” Schultz said.

“They’re not following our ordinance,” Hafslund said. “… It’s been adopted, but we’re not following it.”

Barely discussing the architectural guidelines on Monday, the council accepted the design of the new business with three 6-0 votes.

Goebel missed the votes, because he left the meeting on a fi re call.

“Looks beautiful,” Schultz said of the development’s design. “Can’t wait.”

Last month, Shaw expressed hesitation about the architectural guidelines, because he doesn’t want to say no to new businesses.

“We’re so desperate,” Schultz agreed.

Schultz asked about imposing restrictions on chain stores.

“They will change,” Hafslund said. “… They’ll come. They’ll do that.”

Hafslund said the planning commission is told to interpret the ordinances as written, and he suggested that the council rewrite the ordinance if it’s not to be enforced.

Hafslund and the council agreed to reschedule a joint work session in early 2012.

CRITERIA FOR APPLICANTS It’s been more than a year since the planning commission operated at full capacity.

Ewals said that commissioners have been working on a questionand-answer form and grading system for candidates for open seats on the commission, with hopes of taking politics out of the equation.

Shaw suggested taking politics out of the process by having the council vote by ballot.

Recommending potential planning commissioners to the city council is an unenviable task, Ewals continued.

Late last month, the mayor’s recommendation was to go back and take a look at the criteria.

Thill said that he believes the commission’s proposed criteria for applicants make sense.

The council viewed the commission’s draft application. It was meant to identify the skills and traits of applicants for the planning commission. In large part, the document was created by Levar and Guy Beck, another commissioner who contributed technical expertise to the commission but then quit amid frustration with the council.

After a year of work, the adjusted application is not quite finished, Hafslund said.

Velishek said the proposed criteria weren’t the focus of one of the commission’s past interviews.

“It was controversy,” she said. “…

It put stigma on the discussion.”

The council doesn’t have the same issues with other commissions, Thill said.

Ewals said that it would be better for the commission to objectively rate applicants than to recommend candidates who are destined for rejection.

Quick start leads Jordan to easy victory Defense keys big win against WEM

BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

The Jordan girls basketball team could not ask for a better start to the season, or to their game on Tuesday night.

The Jaguars came out f lying against Waterville-Elysian-Morristown on Tuesday and improved to 3-0 on the season with a 70-48 victory.

It was all defense for the Jaguars, as they forced 29 WEM turnovers, leading to the big win for Jordan.

“It was great to see our defense force a lot of turnovers,” head coach

Greg Dietel said. “We forced 29 turnovers, and it created a lot of points for our team. This is a credit to the effort our players are giving on the court.”

WEM came out and tried to force the play, as they put a full-court press on Jordan. The plan didn’t work, as the Jaguars easily broke the press, leading to easy basket after easy basket.

Jordan scored 41 first-half points to take a 19-point halftime lead, 40-21.

“I was pleased with the start of the game,” Dietel said. “Our starters set the tone for the night during the first four minutes of the game.”

Maddy Dean led the Jaguars with 17 points, followed by Makayla Lambrecht’s 14, Sam Hent-

ges’ and Kelsey Chambers’ eight, Elle Case’s seven, Alex Hancock’s six, Hallie’ Anderson’s five, Hannah Klegstad’s four and Morgan Huss’ one.

SAME SCRIPT The Jordan girls basketball team followed the same script in each of its fi rst two games of the season.

They jumped out to an early lead and let the lead slip by halftime, before rallying for the win in the second half.

The Jaguars improved to 2-0 on the season following that script as they defeated Glencoe-Silver Lake 63-56 on Friday night.

“This game had the same look as our game earlier in the week against Chaska,” Dietel said. “I

was especially proud of our team and how physical we played in the second half. Glencoe has a physical team with some good size, and we battled hard.”

Jordan trailed 34-30 at halftime but picked up its defense in the second half and held the Panthers to just 22 second-half points.

“We had some struggles defending Glencoe in the fi rst half and gave them too many open looks at the basket,” Dietel said. “In the second half, our defenders were able to force tougher shots.”

While they were shutting the Panthers down defensively in the second half, the Jaguars offense continued to roll along.

“I thought we were much improved offensively with our halfcourt sets in the second half,”

Dietel said. “The girls did a nice job of moving the ball and making the extra passes to the open player for good shots.”

The Jaguars got big games from Dean and Chambers.

Those two combined to score half of the team’s 63 points. Dean finished with 22 points, while Chambers added 10.

Both players also dominated the boards. They combined for 22 rebounds, with Chambers grabbing 15 and Dean seven. Chambers also had seven assists.

Lambrecht added nine points and Case eight points in the win.

The Jaguars open up Minnesota River Conference play at 7:30 p.m.

Friday, when they travel to Le Sueur to take on the Giants of Le Sueur-Henderson.

Scott West starts season strong in first two meets Grapplers win duals, Lakeville North title

BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

If the wrestling world didn’t know Scott West is going to be pretty good this year, it found out last weekend.

The Panthers started the season out with a bang as they dominated the White Bear Lake Duals and the Lakeville North Invitational.

At the White Bear Lake Duals, Scott West beat three teams from Class 3A, two of which were ranked.

They followed that up by running away with the Lakeville North title the next day.

Scott West opened the season last Friday by beating White Bear Lake, Cambridge-Isanti and Moorhead at the White Bear Lake Duals.

“We passed the fi rst test and got some good performances to start the season,” coach Darren Ripley said. “But as the old saying goes, it’s not where you start, but where you fi nish that counts, and we have a lot of work ahead of us as a team and individuals to get better.”

Their fi rst match up of the season came against Cambridge-Isanti, the No. 7-ranked team in Class 3A. The Panthers dominated the Bluejackets winning 45 -19. The meet started with Scott West winning the fi rst four matches. Davin Flynn won a major decision 14-2, followed

by Zach Seigle’s technical fall, Jake

Weirke’s pin and Phillip Dvorak’s major decision.

After just four matches, Scott West led 19-0, before the Bluejackets got on the board when No. 4-ranked Tyler Tischer topped No. 3-ranked Luke Zilverberg at 132 pounds 3-2.

The Panthers got back on the board when Oscar Negrete rallied in the third period to turn a 4-2 deficit into a 7-4 win.

“Oscar’s a great kid, and as we would say in Scott West terminology, he is one that likes to fight – on the wrestling mat, of course,” Ripley said.

“Everybody was talking about Oscar on Friday night and Saturday.

That was a huge win for him and the team.”

From there, the Panthers got wins from Derek Dahlke, Gabe Fogarty, Charlie Pesch, Mike Riker and Michael Kroells. Riker and Kroells won by pin fall.

After that win, Scott West topped No.8-ranked White Bear Lake 38-19 and Moorhead 55-13.

In the Moorhead win, heavyweight Darrin Wolters got his first Scott West win 5-0 against Brenden Edner.

CHAMPIONS The next day, Scott West traveled to Lakeville for the North Invitational.

They came home with the firstplace trophy and a slew of individual champions.

The Panthers finished with 268 points, winning the title. Hudson, Wis., was second at 193, followed by Henry Sibley, Lakeville North and Chaska-Chanhassen.

In addition to winning the team title, Scott West had seven individual champions.

Of the 14 wrestlers that Scott West threw out on the mat at Lakeville, 12 of them placed.

“Overall, we put together a pretty good day of wrestling,” Ripley said.

“I think that we had a couple of kids (David Flynn and Jake DeWeese) that won their first individual varsity titles, while another (Phil Dvorak) was in the fi nals for the fi rst time as a Panther.”

Flynn g rabbed the first Scott West title, as he topped Lakeville North’s Colin Degrammont 3-2 for the 106-pound title.

Seigle made it 2-for-2 for the Panthers, as he won the 113-pound title with a 5-0 win against Luke Finkel of Chaska-Chanhassen.

The next champion came at 132 pounds from Luke Zilverberg.

The other Panther champions were Fogarty, Nick Dvorak, Jake DeWeese and Kroells.

Phillip Dvorak, Dahlke, and Patrick Dvorak placed second, while Riker fi nished fourth and Weierke fi fth.

HUBMEN BASKETBALL

WEM, turnovers too much to overcome Sixth-ranked team tops Jordan by 29

BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

Before the season started Jordan boys basketball head coach Matt Urbanek worried about his defense.

In the team’s first two games, the defense was pretty good.

In the third game, not so much.

The Hubmen gave up 4 8 fi rst-half points to WatervilleElysian-Morristown and lost 87-58 to the sixth-ranked team in Class 2A. Despite giving up all those fi rst-half points, Jordan’s offense kept them in the game, a s t he Hubmen s c or e d 3 9 points.

If they could pick up their defense and slow down WEM, they could pull of the upset.

Things went just the oppo-

site. WEM continued to score, and Jordan didn’t.

Jordan was outscored by 19 points 39-21 in the second half, which led to the lopsided score. “We had a very difficult time handling their defensive pressure,� Urbanek said. “We were able to execute our offense after we crossed half court, and we were able to defend them in the half court, but they thrive on steals off the press and turning those steals into points. That was the story of the game – we gave away the ball way too often. We played hard. They are a very good team.�

Jake Anderson scored 31 points in the loss for the Hubmen.

BUZZER BEATER W hat a way to star t the season.

and then lost a buzzer beater at home.

The Hubmen went on the road to open the season and came home with a 62-46 win against Blue Earth last Thursday.

They followed that win up by losing in the final seconds to Southwest Christian 54-53.

Against Southwest Christian, Jordan led 53-51 with nine seconds left, when Brian Horner went the length of the court, made a layup and was fouled. He made the free throw to grab the 54-53 lead.

Jordan senior Kevin Way’s buzzer-beating shot bounced off the rim and to the ground to give Southwest Christian the win.

The Hubmen grabbed the late lead after trailing 30-26 at halftime. “We had trouble playing well with any kind of consistency,�

Urbanek said. “We would make a good play offensively or defensively, and then go through a dry stretch. We were never able to build momentum and get on a roll. We also shot the ball poorly from the field, and from the free throw line. We learned that we still have a lot of things to work on. We’ll stick together as a team and try to get better.�

For the game, the Hubmen shot 37 percent from the field and 57 percent from the freethrow line.

T hei r bi ggest st r u gg les came from three-point distance as they made three of 17 attempts.

Anderson led the team with 17 points, followed by Micah Hennen’s 12.

The season started well for the Hubmen, as they controlled Blue Earth Area throughout and won 62-46. “We played with a high level of defensive energy and intensity tonight,� Urbanek said. “The defensive effort was very good against a big and physical team. We received contributions from a lot of players, and it was a good start to the season. We still need to take better care of the ball, and we gave up too many offensive-rebound points (14), but we can work on those things. It always feels good to win the fi rst game.�

Jordan held Blue Earth to just 18 fi rst-half points while grabbing a nine-point halftime lead.

Both offenses picked up in the second half, as Jordan outscored Blue Earth 35-28.

Anderson led three scorers in double figures with 20. Nate Beckman added 14 points and Kevin Way 12.

BRIEFS

Now 2 track relays will qualify for state The Minnesota State High School League Board of Directors recently approved a proposal from the track and field advisory committee that will allow two relays from each of the sections to automatically qualify for the state meet.

That will be effective this spring. In the past, only one relay qualified, while secondplace fi nishers or higher had to make the state standard to earn a berth.

The top two finishers in individual events will also qualify for state, which unchanged.

Snowmobile training for youths oered The Scott County Sheriff’s Office is hosting a CD course youth snowmobile training.

Classes will be held from 8 a.m. to noon, and from noon to 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, Jan. 7-8.

Classes will be held at the Scott County Fairgrounds, 7151 19 0th St. W., Jordan.

Snowmobiles wil l be pro vided (participants should not bring their own snowmobiles). Youths must be ages 11-15 at the time of the class.

Youths will be responsible for bringing the appropriate clothing depending on weather, as well as a snowmobile helmet.

P r ior to at tend i n g t he training, youths must contact the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to obtain an interactive CD. The following was from the DNR website: The CD-based youth snowmobile safety training class i s a n i nt r o duc t or y cl a s s designed primarily for the snowmobile rider with little or no experience in snowmobile operation. Students obtain and study the safety information on the interactive CD at their own pace under the guidance of a parent or guardian. Depending on the youth’s age and experience, the CD should take approximately two to four hours to complete.

Extra funds pile up for upcoming city hall, trail projects

BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

Jordan City Finance Director Tom Nikunen mentioned that the city has stockpiled two sizeable pots of money for

upcoming projects.

Almost $175,000 has been saved for a city hall, police station or library, he said at the late November meeting of the Jordan City Council. And the same amount has been set aside

for construction of a future trail along Old Highway 169 (County Road 66), Nikunen said.

The council has a policy of saving leftover funds for use on projects on its capital improvement plan (CIP).

First couple snows, same ice-cold issues for Jordan crews

BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

Is Jordan Public Works ready for the snow? Jordan Mayor Pete Ewals knowingly quizzed Public Works Director

Dave Bendzick.

The city snowplows dealt with the fi rst couple of snowfalls of the season with ease, but the ensuing warm-up was welcomed with open arms.

“It’s a typical fi rst couple of

snows,” Bendzick said.

Roads get slippery when the first snow falls, which is typical until the ground freezes. You get the snowfall that instantly turns to ice, Bendzick said.

Christmas traditions live on

BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com

Some Jordan residents and Czechloving people spent some time celebrating Christmas with an ethnic twist on Sunday, Dec. 4, at the second annual European Christmas Boutique and Czech Heritage Junior Royalty Coronation in – where else? – New Prague, home of many things Czech.

The event included woodcarving, a Gaelic harp-making demonstration, an arts and crafts boutique including European imports and direct sales.

Strolling musician Jerry Minar, a Hengel concertina maker and player, shared his music.

Performances were also planned by the Domácí Czech Folk Dancers, a local youth group dancing traditional folk dances; Chad McAnally featuring Irish music; the New Prague Czech Singers; and the St John’s Union Hill Choir, with traditional German songs.

Deb Ziskovsky, president of the

Jonathan Westell Braatz

Braatz

Czech Heritage Club, and Leah Baker, event coordinator of European Christmas Boutique, submitted information about the event: “Across Europe the Christmas season begins in early December. Small gifts are exchanged with family and friends. The open-air markets of the villages are decorated and filled with the sounds of strolling musicians, the smell of fresh baked goodies; mulled wine warms the soul. Fresh fish are sold from barrels and are the traditional holiday meal. Homes are decorated and the baking begins for the many gatherings to take place during the season.”

The Czech St. Nick, Svatý Mikuláš, along with his friends Anděl (angel) and Čert (devil) were to make an appearance to hand out treats to the children who have been good. The characters are Duane and Amy Jirik of New Prague and David Kubista of Jordan.

ROAR! CATS IN HATS SHOW JORDANESS SYLE Photos by Ron Mornson

The 22nd annual Jordaness Lions’ holiday fashion show featured plenty of hats – the theme was “Cats in Hats.”

The luncheon, fashion show, silent auction and entertainment were held at the OK Corral Restaurant & Saloon by Dangerfield’s on Saturday, Nov. 19. Here, Hedy Joachim shows off a black hat.

18 Jordan area businesses participate in Jean Days for Charity Make casual Friday a lot more purposeful with Southwest Newspapers’ Jean Days for Charity.

S o u t hw e s t N e w s p a p e r s invites companies and businesses in the southwest metro to participate in the monthly fund-raising effort aimed at supporting local nonprofits and boosting company morale.

“The purpose of Jeans Day for Charity is to bring the business community together

a little more and making it an easy way to be able to support local charities, especially at this time when people have cut back their giving,” Southwest Newspapers Advertising Director Jennifer Sorenson said.

Participating businesses allow employees to wear jeans to work the last Friday of each month. Employees pay $1 which is donated to the designated charity of the month.

December’s collection is for Loaves and Fishes.

Since starting the program in September 2010, Southwest Newspapers has collected $4,270 for area charities, including the Carver-Scott Humane Society, Feed My Starving Children, ALS Association and Safe Haven in Prior Lake. The November charity was the Alzheimer’s Association of Minnesota. Sorenson welcomes suggestions for the 2012 list of nonprofits.

Eighteen area companies and businesses participate in Jean Days for Charity, including St. Francis Regional Medical Center in Shakopee and Ridgeview Medical Center in Waconia.

Southwest Newspapers provide businesses with a complete kit for enabling employees to participate: registration forms, table tents that explain to customers why employees are wearing jeans, Jeans Day

stickers for participating employees to wear, and other items. There is no cost for companies to participate.

Additionally, Southwest will promote these businesses’ participation every month in its seven local newspapers.

Jeans Day for Charity is a great way for businesses of any size – small or large – to help the local community and reward their employees by allowing them to wear jeans at work.

For more information about Jeans Day for Charity, call Jenni fer Sorenson at (952) 345-6477 or send an e-mail to jsorenson@swpub.com.

Southwest Newspapers is a multimedia company that serves the Twin Cities southwest suburbs with seven community weekly newspapers, two shoppers, a large number of informational websites and a growing array of specialty and niche publications.
