Another effort works to combat school bullying BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com

tudents at Jordan Elementary School who might shrink away from directly confronting a bully have another way to report an incident. It’s called the Bully Box, and it sits in a prominent location in the library.

The box functions like a suggestion box, with perhaps more certainty of the reports actually being read. The box has led to some real action at the school. Jordan Elementary School Social Worker Molly Kalow introduced the box during one of the elementary school’s weekly newscasts this fall. “The intent behind the

Bully Box is to give kids who are more timid about speaking up a way to report bullying incidents,” Kalow wrote in an e-mail. Students need to include their name and their teacher’s name. Each week, Kalow checks the box and follows up on every situation that was reported.

With the reinstatement of a police officer position, the Jordan City Council effectively restarted its programs in local schools. As crime rates decreased, the council had cut several police officer positions since 2008, but last Monday, the council reinstated one full-time position. Jacob Rudolph, a part-time officer for Jordan, was offered the full-time gig. His duties will include: I additional coverage on weekends, including traffic safety and crime prevention projects during slower periods of time, 20 hours a week; I relieving the call load of the detective sergeant, who will be freed up for supervisory, investigatory and administrative duties, 10 hours a week; I schools-dedicated work, like providing morning and afternoon crossing-guard duty, Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE), response to reported crimes and calls for service at the schools, security at football games and dances, and a resource for special needs at the schools, eight hours a week; I and training, vacation and sick time, two hours a week. During the summer hours, the eight hours Rudolph would’ve dedicated to schools will be spent on filling in for vacations and working crime prevention and special projects, such as festivals and other events, Jordan Police Chief Bob Malz wrote in a Dec. 19 memorandum to the council.

DARE IS BACK

100TH ANNIVERSARY

100 gloves or mittens to the Blessings in a Backpack program at Jordan Elementary School. In February, club members’ elderly neighbors are in for a treat. More than 100 residents of Schule Haus senior apartments and Valley View Assisted Living will receive valentines, maybe even accompanied by 100 roses. In March, 100 pounds of food will be raised for the Jordan Area Food Shelf.

Rudolph won’t be the only one work i n g w it h f i f t h- a nd si x t hgraders in DARE, Malz said in an interview. Officers Shane Schultz and Jeff Strack are expected to be involved this school year, as twice as many children will be involved. The DARE program was on budgetary hiatus in 2011, and the city and school officials decided to try to catch up. In future years, the program will continue to involve fifth-graders, Malz said. Jordan Public Schools will contribute $10,000 toward the police officer position, Malz wrote.

Chamber of Commerce and the Jordan Commercial Club are compatible, complementary organizations, said Ron Jabs, a longtime member of the groups. He said the chamber promotes businesses and the com-

mercial club promotes the city and its best interests as a whole, “It was the club, the organization to belong to,” Jabs said of the commercial club. “Our plans are to kind of commemorate that.” For a century, commercial club members have been doing business in Jordan and, in turn, giving back to the town.

In an unnecessary controversy, according to the business owner involved, the Jordan City Council allowed a one-time lot split in a highway commercial area meant for large buildings. By announcing that she has secured a potential business for the Whispering Meadows district behind Radermacher’s Fresh Market, Kitty Burton “put a little pressure on the city” to reconsider its past denial of a minor subdivision proposal for her Burton Insurance property, City Administrator Ed Shukle said. The buyer, who Burton said is from Jordan, will “actually put a building up,” Shukle told the city council last month. Burton declined to publicly state what business is interested, but she noted that she was open to detailing the proposal in private.

OUT OF THE WAY Shaw reminded the council that the Jordan Economic Development Authority (EDA) and Jordan Planning Commission approved the proposals, and urged the council not to stand in the way of business expansion. “It really comes down to being friendly to the smallbusiness owner,” Burton said. “I’d like to see this project get fi nished,” Councilmember Sally Schultz said. “There’s no time frame on when you develop,” Ewa ls said. “You certainly can’t force anyone to building anything,” City Attorney Annette Margarit agreed.

Permit fees cover high legal expenses

No Appointment Necessary

The council voted 6-0 to approve the second reading of an ordinance allowing one-time splits of lots in the highway commercial district, and 4-2 to approve a minor subdivision at 210 Eldorado Drive. Councilmember Tanya Velishek and Mayor Pete Ewals opposed the measure. Councilmember Jeremy Goebel, a firefighter, was absent from the votes due to a fire call. Last November, the council approved the fi rst reading of the ordinance. The ordinance change was crafted with Burton’s property specifically in mind, since the recent vision for the highway commercial district includes large lots and potentially big-box stores.

“This is the city taking a risk,” Velishek said in agreement. Councilmember Mike Shaw, though, insisted that the choice was clear: one building “and all that green space,” or a lot split that could yield a new, taxpaying business. Generally, the highway commercial business district requires larger lots, since the city reworked its zoning districts in 2010. The city required 150-foot-wide lots, but made an exception for Burton’s 115-footwide lot. Without the lot split, “that lot would never be used,” Shaw said. Burton said that the proposed business will construct an exact replica of her building next spring, but any further delay could’ve driven away the new business before the end of the year. Ewals pushed for compliance with a city ordinance requiring water and sewer hookup at the time of the subdivision, but Burton asked to be spared the $7,000-plus for the hookup and the $10,000 in 2012 taxes. The mayor accused the business owner of making a proposal “just to get away from paying extra property taxes.” He said that making an exception to the ordinance opens a Pandora’s Box.

Building permit revenues and legal expenses are up at city hall. Jordan Finance Director Tom Nikunen suggested using the extra revenue from building permits to cover the cost of being over budget in the legal department. Jordan City Councilmember Tanya Velishek took exception to the idea. “W hy wou ld we wa nt to take that plus and spend it on legal fees when we don’t need to? ” she said, raising her voice. “That’s my point. I think that’s something that the citizens need to know.” At the Nov. 21 council meeting, Velishek questioned Nikunen about the status of the city’s spending on legal representation – not even close to the fi rst time the question has arisen in the past year or so.

“We’re over budget on that,” Nikunen told her. But, he added, the city can take comfort in ending up “plus” on permit fees, offering the extra revenue to cover any other general fund expense. The city budgeted for $10,000 in building permit fees in 2011, and as of last month, had already surpassed the projected total by $87,000. The council has a policy of saving leftover general fund money for capital projects, like a future city hall, a new police station, and the proposed library. But overspending on legal issues during the fi rst 10 months of the year jeopardizes contributions to capital improvement project savings account, as does the purchase of a new police car. In this year’s budget, the city projected $138,000 for legal (it is $19,650 over budget, according to Nikunen) and had planned on buying only one police car (it will buy two).

CITY BUDGET

New policy locks up capital project savings

Crossroads Optometric

Money for new city hall, police station and library stays put because of new accounting standards BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

Late last year, the Jordan City Council approved a “drastic change” to the city’s fund ba l a nc e p ol icie s, F i n a nc e Director Tom Nikunen said, to comply with the latest Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) statements. GASB sets rules and st a nd a rd s for gover n ment accounting. In the past, the city could classify its fund balances in one of two ways – reserved or unreserved. Going forward, the city will use five different classifications to describe restrictions on the future use of its fund balances – nonspendable, restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned. “W hat this covers is al l funds,” Nikunen told the council Dec. 5, when the council passed two new fund balance policies, each with a 6-0 vote. Councilmember Jeremy Goebel did not vote, because he left the council meeting to respond to a fi re call.

SAVING EXTRA MONEY The goals of the city’s fund balance policy are to set aside money for construction of a new city hall, police station or library, as well as to make sure the city has enough operating dollars to cash f low until certain revenue arrives during the second half of each year. “So if the city has excess fund balance over 55 percent of the next year’s budget, those funds get transferred to three capital funds,” Nikunen wrote in a memorandum to the council. “The intent is to spend those funds (on) one-time capital items to help reduce future fi nancing costs for projects.”

COMMITTED TO SPECIFICS Committed fund balance can only be used for specific purposes, as indicated by the council. “The committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose ...,” the policy says.

The council will commit revenue sources to the fund “annually or as deemed necessary,” according to the policy. Funds are constrained unless released for another purpose via a resolution of the council.

ASSIGNED BY FINANCE Assigned fund balance is restricted to the government’s intent to use the money for a specific purpose. It’s up to the finance director to assign and remove these assignments within the general fund.

UNASSIGNED IN GENERAL Unassigned fund balance is the “residual classification for the general fund,” the policy says. “... The general fund should be the only fund that reports a positive unassigned fund balance amount.” Maintaining 45 to 55 percent of the next year’s budgeted expenditures assists the city “in maintaining an adequate level of fund balance to provide for cash f low requirements and contingency needs, because major revenues, including property taxes and other government aids, are received in the second half of the city’s fiscal year,” the policy said. An exception to the rule will be granted if a budget shortfall of $100,000 or more is anticipated, but the policy requires the city to replenish the fund with the following year’s taxes. “Excess general fund balance over the 55 percent maximum target shall be distributed to capital funds at the end of the year,” according to the policy. “Excess funds shall be divided 50 percent into (the) city facilities fund, 30 percent into (the) general construction capital fund and 20 percent into (the) park capital fund.”

952-345-3003

EMERGENCY FUND T he p ol icy ne c e s sit ate s the creation of stabilization arrangements, or funds set aside for emergencies, revenue shortages or budgetary imbalances. This fund will only be tapped “for situations that are not expected to occur routinely,” the policy said.

Take your car search for a spin.

SPECIAL REVENUES In a separate 6-0 vote, with Goebel absent, the council last month approved further restrictions for four city funds – donations, police forfeitures, Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE) and the police car seat fund. “Basically, all of our special revenue funds need to be addressed,” Nikunen wrote in a memorandum to the council. These funds will be classified as committed. Revenues from donations should be committed to a specific project or purpose. Forfeitures will go toward funding drug and alcohol enforcement. Donations to the DARE and car seat funds are spent on those specific programs, according to the policy. There is already a historical fund, started when the city began selling the 150th anniversary committee’s histor y books. T he f u nd wi l l be spent on museum-related functions. “We don’t have a lot of money in there, so don’t get your hopes up,” said Nikunen, estimating about $800 of book sales. There is a capital project fund for sirens, and the city has a restricted fund for Municipal State Aid (MSA) for road construction and repair.

STATUS UPDATES During annual budget meetings, the fi nance director and city administrator will present to the city council the status of the fund balances, the policy says. This is the fi rst time it has been necessary for the city to publicize its fund balances in an easy-to-understand format.

Lions member and Jordan Elementary School Secretary Shelly Habeck shows the $400 check that the club donated for the school’s backpack program, next to Principal Stacy DeCorsey. The program sends food home to families in need over the weekend, so that kids come back energized to learn.

Mike Shaw asked fel low members of the Jordan City Council to include a clarification of his views on architectural design guidelines in the most recent recollections of a city work session. During a discussion with Jordan Planning Commission Chairman Rolf Hafslund on Nov. 21, Shaw said, “I hope I didn’t vote for having (highway commercial) be the same as downtown.” He meant to say that he doesn’t think that the downtown and highway commercial districts need to complement each other, Shaw said on Monday, Dec. 5. “Even though the ordinance may say that, I don’t feel that they should.” The council voted 6-0 to pass the work session minutes.

Mixed-use project gets city approvals The Scott County Community Development Agency (CDA) received three necessary approvals from the Jordan City Council this month. The council voted 6-0 for the second reading of ordinances that: I amend the highway commercial zone to allow for a library; I allow housing as a part of a mixed-use planned-unit development (PUD); I and approve the final PUD for the CDA’s mixed-use project. The CDA has contracted Dunbar Development to lay out its senior housing, library and medical clinic proposed in the Whispering Meadows business district. A pharmacy is part of the proposal, but not a sure thing. Compiled by Mathias Baden

EDITORIAL

Thumbs up to preserving history, farmer’s market Thumbs up to … Historical society partnership: Open minds often prevail, in cases such as the short-lived recent movement for a Jordan historical society. That effort has switched gears and instead will move forward under the auspices of a local committee partnering with the Scott County Historical Society. Why duplicate in Jordan that in which another responsible local interest specializes? An impending deal with the historical society in Shakopee will be a boon for our town. 100 things promotion: The Jordan Commercial Club celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2012 with a “100 things” promotion. What creativity! Here’s to a fun time to be had by all, volunteerism and enthusiasm to be encouraged next year, and a long future for the club. Growing a farmer’s market: Jordan resident Cathy Isles is forming a committee to manage an outdoor Saturday market for locally grown produce, food products and handcrafted items. We should welcome and support the idea of getting a farmer’s market back in town. Such a market would let local growers and crafters sell locally and promote healthy eating. Those interested in such a committee can contact Isles at (952) 492-6084 or cathy@bridgingtheuniverse.com during the day. Trails grants: Jordan’s city staff, instead of sulking about criticism over its past efforts (or, in some cases, lack thereof or disagreement about how) to connect sidewalks and trails in town, has been fully pursuant of state grant money for new trails. At some point soon, the negative talk is going to have to turn positive. Good things are happening. Food shelf giving: The holidays, religious and secular, provide many of us with an opportunity to give. Students at local schools put forth their utmost effort leading up to the winter break by donating money and food to the Jordan Area Food Shelf. It’s good to see that, in addition to fundraisers for school-related expenses, the school and others are working for their neighbors who are struggling to get food on the table.

Thumbs down to … Adult entertainment: Many a small town has been bitten when their zoning ordinances didn’t keep adult entertainment in an allowed location. The city of Jordan made plans for adult businesses, as the law requires, but the city ordinance disallows such activity in downtown Jordan, according to city officials. One downtown bar earned a fi ne for disobeying – hopefully they and others learn from the mistake, and hopefully patrons continue to spend money at a valued business here.

Thumbs

UP & DOWN COMMUNITY ISSUES

No council retreat: Cry about how much it costs i f you wa nt, but the result of not having a city council retreat is obvious – some councilmembers just don’t want to be cohesive. No councilmember has done enough to build a bridge and encourage legitimately controversial yet unanimous votes, of which the council needs more. A proven way to get on the same page is for the council to spend a large amount of time together. Council retreats are open meetings, and they result in togetherness, long-term visioning, and progress. Each councilmember should extend an olive branch to those with whom they have historically disagreed – immediately engage a facilitator, announce a date for a retreat, and vow to participate. For the good of Jordan, please work together. Feeling (fi ll in the blank): As it goes in the Flo Rida song, “Oh, sometimes I get a good feeling, yeah, I get a feeling that I never never never never had before, no no.” It’s unlikely Mr. Rida, wait, (his real name is Tramar Dillard), has ever attended a Jordan City Council meeting. If he had, his song might go: “Oh, every time, I get a bad feeling, yeah, I get a bad feeling that I had two, two, two weeks ago, oh oh.” Maybe a musical collaboration between the council and Jordan High School choir members would calm everyone’s nerves. Just a thought.

Think on this ... Spring flood outlook: Have you seen how low the Minnesota River is these days? We’ll be watching the weather, especially the flood outlook, this winter and spring – and for commuters’ sake, we’re hoping for a mild spring flood. On Dec. 28, the river water measured in at 5.51 feet, according to the National Weather Service. Flood stage is 25 feet. During the spring flood on March 28, the river crested at about 31.8 feet. Plants and animals thrive in the Minnesota River’s rise and fall. People, though, tend to worry when the water rises. Does a low-water autumn mean happy travels on river-bottom trails and a less severe spring flood? Only time will tell.

Looking forward to beer, radishes A catalog from the Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Company out of Missouri showed up in the mail one day as I was working in the Jordan Independent office. So I have to say thank you, mysterious someone, for ordering that catalogue and getting me rolling with the annually difficult endeavor of finding a good Christmas present for my dad. He’s harder to buy for in part because, like me, he isn’t quite as in love with new techno gadgets as most people seem to be. In fact, he was quite excited to receive a gently-used Sony Walkman that my mom found as a gift for him. He also did more gardening this past year, after converting some unused yard area into space for more tomato plants. There was even an unexpected visitor from seeds in the compost pile – a fullsized cantaloupe, which I sampled. It tasted the same as one from the store. So, giving garden seeds as a gift seemed like a good idea. Paging through the Baker Creek catalogue was kind of fun because of all the different varieties of fruits and vegetables.

SCHUELLER AN AGRICURIOUS OBSERVER

Heirloom seeds are basically versions of plants that aren’t mass produced or genetically modified. Although they might not lend themselves as well to mechanized, high-yield farming, they apparently still work well for the average gardener who might like the history and intrigue of the plants. My dad has no problem buying more common garden seeds you might find at the grocery or hardware store, but why not try something different? Among other seeds, we ordered him the Minnesota Midget Melon, Munchener Bier radish and Dragon

Tongue Bush Bean, the last of which, when grown, look like beans wearing purple camouflage. The Minnesota Midget Melon is described on the Baker Creek website: “This very small, very early heirloom was introduced in Minnesota in 1948. Measuring just 4 inches across, they have sweet, orange flesh and are perfect miniature versions of the ‘Classic Muskmelon.’” And, the Munchener Bier is described as “A famous German heirloom radish that is popular in much of northern Europe; 4-inch white roots have a pungent, crisp flesh that is sliced onto bread or served with pretzels. It also produces tender seed pods that are tasty pickled or added to salads.” It’s a fun idea to think about garden plants somehow connecting the grower to history and geography. Maybe the fruit tastes sweeter when there are stories behind the plants. And hopefully, they just taste sweeter. This summer, I plan to stop over at my parent’s place to check, as I expect that seeds are gifts that keep on giving.

Strumming along, happy to be fleeced Happy New Year! To those of you who, as a conversation starter, will ask, “Was Santa good to you?” I can honestly say yes, I received some very nice gifts, including a Columbia fleece to keep me warm when winter finally arrives in 2012. And as is my habit, I pre-purchased some things for myself in anticipation of the Christmas giving season — because after all, it is better to give than to receive (and I knew I wouldn’t get everything on my list). One of the gifts I gave myself caused questions and confusion. “A banjo? You bought a banjo?” “Yeah.” “Why?” “I thought it might be kind of fun to play.” “Is this going be like the drums, harmonica and violin?” (Those items were purchased to support pursuits that never really took off). “No, this is different.” “You sure have a lot of interests.” It’s true I do have many interests, and this New Year is no exception. In 2012 I have three things I want to accomplish: further my education, take the mystery out of chocolate boxes and improve a commonhousehold appliance. The first thing involves rocketry. We often hear how something is not as hard as rocket science, or you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to accomplish a certain task. I get a little tired of having the study of projectiles held up as the stick from which all difficulty is measured. And to prove them wrong, I think this year I may study aerospace engineering and learn about the physics of trajectories, lift, thrust, etc. How hard can it be? It’s not rocket … oh wait.

Well, anyway, on to the second thing. All boxes of chocolates (not just the classy ones) should have a chart of the contents on the underside of the box top. However, placing it on the bottom of the box would create some humorous situations and possibly sell more chocolate. Unfortunately, a chocolate treasure map would remove the charm of Mrs. Gump’s adage because, unlike life, a well-mapped box of chocolates would always let you know what you’re going to get. My own mother must have grown tired of watching half-eaten candy spit into the waste basket – that image can ruin an otherwise festive atmosphere. As with other problems, she would cut the chocolate into smaller pieces to expose the stickiness of the situation. And finally, few problems in life can bring such temporary horror as a bad haircut and the immediate need to correct it. As a child, my friend Mark once jumped out of a barber’s chair and stormed out the door halfway through a haircut when he saw his reflection in the mirror.

I have experienced that heartstopping realization. Clippers, designed for screwing up your appearance at home, come with several guides that fit over the blades. They are supposed to help you cut your hair at an even length. This works only if they are put in place. I have been halfway through a haircut when I removed the guide to do a quick touch-up around the ears. The screaming started shortly after I picked up where I left off. It was then that I realized I forgot to put the guide back on. But then it was too late because I had disfigured myself with several 1-inch-wide swipes. My wife, Rhonda, was summoned from whatever secondary task she was doing to fix my hideousness. Therefore for 2012, I propose that clippers designed exclusively for home use should come with an automatic shutoff when the guide is removed. As I cut my hair about once a month I may only have about 12 more times to screw it up anyway, because according to some interpretations the Mayan Calendar signifies the end of this age on Dec. 21, 2012. The Mayans, who lived in Central America over 1,000 years ago, devised a calendar that did not continue past 2012. Some people think the Mayans knew that the world would end at the end of this year. With all due respect to preColumbian society, I am not going to worry about it though. I will sit up in my room, warmed by my new fleece, and plan for next year.

WINTER BREAK MEANS ALL SMILES

continued from page 1

PHOTOS BY DAVID SCHUELLER / REPRINTS AT PHOTOS.JORDANNEWS.COM

Willie Robling holds some work as he walks against a stiff wind on the way toward winter break.

Jordan Elementary School students showed lots of smiles as they were let out for winter break in the early afternoon on Dec. 22. Here, Jackie Quiroz (left) and Alexa Fern carry sweet houses on the way out of school.

Students carried out crafts and sweets, and some wore pajamas – the last day before break was pajama day at the school.

“If there are situations between classmates, I will contact the teacher and ask if they would like to handle it or if they would like me to get involved. If something has happened on the bus, I will contact the bus company and we will work on solving the issue together,” she wrote. Students have responded well. They feel like their concerns are being heard and addressed, according to Kalow. She also sends ideas to teachers, so they can remind students what they can do if they feel bullied. Bystanders become a topic for discussion. “If a student sees someone being bullied they can either say ‘stop it’ in a firm voice to draw the attention of an adult, they can walk over to the student who is being bullied and ask them to play so that the bullied student can get out of the situation, or they can go get an adult for help,” Kalow wrote. Bullying at the elementary level, Kalow wrote, involves teaching students how to interact with each other in appropriate ways. Teachers can reinforce good behaviors taught by parents, and the behavior becomes natural for students. “Just as we need to be teaching them to read, write and calculate, we also need to teach them how to be safe, responsible and respectful to one another,” Kalow wrote. Principal Stacy DeCorsey said the social workers at district schools met last year, and started initiatives, which look different in each building. In October, Jordan Middle School started a group that included school staff, students and parents. DeCorsey said anti-bullying efforts are still developing. “Any time a kid feels uncomfortable and feels they weren’t treated appropriately, we want them to be able to tell us,” DeCorsey said.

The Christmas story got full attention in the Dec. 21 music program at St. John the Baptist Catholic School. First-graders Ashley Larson (left), Jordan Rosado and Simon Peterson sing out to the audience.

Sixth-graders got the star parts in the story – but not literally, as the star was produced using a lighting effect. Brenten Wick (left) plays a wise man, Anna Andersen is Mary, and Michael Spies shows up as a shepherd in the Christmas story. All are in sixth grade.

The time has arrived when we review the year and take stock in what we have accomplished, what we botched, what we would like to do and who we would like to be moving forward. We have a chance to evaluate our priorities and measure how we are meeting our goals. What a great time to look at the big picture and see how we contribute to the greater world as well. As a school we continue to look at how we can best meet our students’ needs. One of my New Year’s resolutions at school is to work on how to best help each student reach his or her full potential through growth in all areas including social, emotional, physical and academic. This takes time and understanding. I want to try to get to know each student and his or her individual needs as we embark on this fun and important journey. I asked our fourth through sixth grade students what kind of resolution they have for the New Year. They shared many predictable items. Parents, you will be happy about these: I will try not to fight with my brother or sister; I will clean my room and pick up my toys; Get higher grades;

I want to finish the book I am reading; Turn homework in on time; Follow directions better; and Get no late assignments. Students grasp expectations people have, and they want to meet them. Another goal I would like to pursue involves helping our students step outside the box of what other people expect of them and allow them to think about what they want for themselves – in their daily lives and in terms of the greater world. Developing an intrinsic desire for personal wellness leads to bigger goals of significance such as justice and peace. Together we can become better people and make great things happen. St. John the Baptist Catholic School wishes everyone a very special New Year in which you make many special memories, smile more, laugh often, think positive, dream big, make peace with your past and commit to creating a future filled with hope and in which you realize the infinite possibilities that God offers to you. Happy New Year! Bonita Jungels is the principal of St. John the Baptist Catholic School. She can be reached at bonitajungels@gmail.com.

Molly Marshall has to protect her goats, Blaze and Dopey, from the heat of the summer sun as she prepares them for the upcoming Scott County Fair. She rubs corn starch into their coats, and makes sure they have shade in the pen. (July 14)

2011 Time well spent The JI takes a look back at third quarter of past year Editorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s note: As we turn the corner into 2012, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;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 the previous two editions of your local newspaper or will conclude next week. This is a chronological summary of news reported in the third quarter of 2011.

JULY 7 Jordan will spend another $3,500 for Hospitality Marketers Inc. consultants to update a market study to woo a $ 3 million, 50-room, brand-name hotel to town. Topper Sponselâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s longtime friend Kevin Knox, Sponselâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sister Susan Kelly, and Knoxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s friend Kevin Breeggemann formed an investment management company and secured a three-year extension on the lease for Minnesota Harvest apple orchard, which is owned by a housing developer. Last year, the razing of the orchard seemed inevitable and the trees were being sold one by one. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have three years to return it to its glory,â&#x20AC;? Knox said of the orchard, which reopened for apple sales on Aug. 1. Using a new ResQ Disc, police and firefighters rescued a swimmer from being swept over the Sand Creek waterfall in Lagoon Park. A teenage girl clung to a log amid a swift current.

Without this device and the strong arm of the law, a swimmer could have been swept over the waterfall. Jordan Police Officer Shane Schultz demonstrates how a ResQ Disc was thrown into Sand Creek in an emergency. (July 7) On July 2-3, Sand Creek Townshipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pitlick family organized Minne-GOAT-a show at the Scott County Fairgrounds in St. Lawrence Township, near Jordan. The Jordan City Council voted for a stricter water bill assessment policy, opting to shut off water sooner rather than later. Residents racked up $160,000 in delinquent bills in 2010 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a troubling number that nearly doubled during the previous two years. Lawn nuisance ordinance of fenders wi l l b e ch a rged marked-up fees. Homeowners who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t keep up their lawns will pay $50 for the first offense, $75 for the second and $125 for the third. Developers whose properties require a rough cut will pay $80, $105 and then $155.

one younger than age 21 gets in free. W hy have one exit when you can have two? At Jordan Middle School, the addition of an out route onto Sunset Drive is projected to cost $15,000.

JULY 14 Scott County District Court Judge Diane Hanson ordered that the newly opened Reflections Crematoryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s city-issued conditional-use permit be declared null and void. Inappropriate schminappropriate. The Jordan City Council voted 4-2 in favor of hosting its town hall meeting at Ballard-Sunder Funeral Home, the site that is the subject of two crematory-related lawsuits. Mayor Pete Ewals called City Administrator Ed Shukleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision to let Mark Ballardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s embattled business house the city-sponsored meeting â&#x20AC;&#x153;inappropriate.â&#x20AC;? With a vote of the Jordan School Board, the one-act play is back.

Refuge Ramble, a new program put on by Rapids Lake Education and Visitor Center in San Francisco Township, near Jordan, takes place each Sunday in the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge. The events focus on everything from finches to foxes; on a short hike, you can see wildlife in its natural habitat. Vacation Bible school takes place at St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Evangelical Lutheran, Lydia Zion United Methodist, St. John the Baptist and Hope Lutheran churches. The themes were â&#x20AC;&#x153;Space Station Salvation,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;PandaMania,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mary Leads Me Closer to Jesusâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Power Lab,â&#x20AC;? respectively. In its 30th year, Card-o-Rama surpassed the $100,000 mark for funds collectively raised. The annual event raised $3,700 in 2011. All of the money goes to the Queen of Peace Foundation, which supports the New Prague hospital.

Vagabonding Lulu calls it “Gucci Camping.” alpine viewpoint 11,742 feet

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.

HUBMEN BASKETBALL

Long-range shooting determines boys’ outcome Watertown hits 13 threes in win against Jordan BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

The Jordan boys basketball team heads into their Christmas break with a bad taste in their mouth. The Hubmen fell 62-42 to Watertown-Mayer, the fi fth-ranked team in Class 2A, at home last Thursday night. D e s pit e t h e 2 0 - p oi nt spread, head coach Matt Urbanek wasn’t very upset about the loss. “Watertown-Mayer shot the ball very, very well,” he said. “We were active on defense, and I thought we played very hard and with a lot of energy. To be honest, I thought we played hard enough to win against a very good team.” The di f ference in the game was Watertown’s ability to hit shots from the outside. Watertown had five different players hit at least one three-pointer in the game. In total, the Royals hit 13 threepointers in the game.

Compare that to Jordan making four of 18 threepointers, and there’s the 20-point differential. “The difference was in shooting percentage,” Urbanek said. “If we continue to play this hard and with this much energy, we will continue to improve and the wins will take care of themselves.” The game got away in the fi rst half when WatertownMayer outscored the Hubmen 32-18. Jordan played evenly with the Royals in the second half but couldn’t really put any kind of run together to put a scare into Watertown. Senior Kevin Way led the Hubmen in scoring with 11 points. He was followed by Micah Hennen’s eight points and Kurt Schansberg and Nate Beckman’s seven.

UP NEXT The Hubmen will take a few days off for Christmas before returning to action tonight (Thursday), when they host Gibbon-FairfaxWinthrop at 7 p.m. A fter that noncon ference ga me, Jorda n wi l l play three Minnesota River Conference games, starting with Norwood-Young America next Tuesday.

Nick Heitkamp brings the ball up the floor for the Hubmen, while Nate Beckman follows him.

MSHSL looks for basketball collectibles

Under the partnership agreements, the trails are groomed and maintained by snowmobile club members. This arrangement permits snowmobile clubs to be stakeholders in operation of the trails and allows Three Rivers staffing and financial resources to be allocated toward other winter operations in the park district. Although the trails are maintained by clubs, park district staff reserve the right to close sections of trail due to lack of snow cover. At a recent board meeting, park district commissioners acknowledged the snowmobile clubsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; stewardship and efforts to promote snowmobiling as a family activity. Because Three Rivers is a natural resources-based park system, it is critical that snowmobilers stay on designated trails while on Park District property. Traveling outside of designated trails harms wildlife habitat and is a violation of park district ordinance. Park hours are 5 a.m. to 10 p.m., so snowmobiling in the parks outside of these hours is prohibited. All snowmobilers are expected to follow state statutes and park district ordinance; for more information about the park district ordinance, click on the following link and scroll to page 31: threeriversparks.org/~/ media/Files/ordinance.ashx. Snowmobilers may be cited for exceeding posted speed limits, for riding faster than is reasonable or proper under existing conditions, for riding in a careless or reckless manner, or for failing to stay on designated snowmobile trails.

The Minnesota State High School League will be celebrating the 100th state basketball tournament, and is looking for basketball mementos and memorabilia to display at this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tournaments. Items such as tournament programs, books about the tournament, newspaper clippings, balls and uniforms, trophies, photographs â&#x20AC;&#x201C; anything related to either the boys or girls state tournament is needed to fi ll display cases for fans to enjoy while at Target Center for the 2012 state tournaments. League staff will take great care in securing any contributed item and will make sure it is returned in the same condition in which it was received. The league can arrange for pickup or delivery of items if required. Potent i a l c ont r ibutor s m ay inquire by sending an e-mail to hoops100@mshsl.org or by leaving a message in the general mailbox at (763) 560-2262.

Shakopee too much for girls First loss of season comes from 4A school BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

After starting the season 8-0 and rising into the Class 2A rankings, the Jordan girls basketball team fell for the fi rst time last Thursday night. The Jaguars traveled to Shakopee to take on the Class 4A Sabers and left with a 55-42 loss. The game was close throughout the first half, but Shakopee turned up their defensive pressure in the second

half and pulled away from Jordan. The Jaguars only trailed 28-24 at halftime but allowed Shakopee start the second half with a 15-4 run. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t at our sharpest,â&#x20AC;? head coach Greg Dietel said. Shakopee pushed their lead all the way to 20 points at 55-35 with three minutes left in the game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They exposed us a little bit, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll fi x it,â&#x20AC;? Dietel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We choose to stand so much offensively. We were waiting for one cut instead of having a lot of movement, which made us very easy to defend.â&#x20AC;? In the last three minutes of the game, Jordan outscored Shakopee 7-0

to cut the score to 55-42. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The last five minutes of the game, we ran our offense the best we did all night,â&#x20AC;? Dietel said. Kelsey Chambers and Maddy Dean led the Jaguars with 14 points each. The loss drops Jordanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s record to 8-1 on the season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is only a bad thing if we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t learn from it,â&#x20AC;? Dietel said.

TIME OFF The Jaguars will have to think about the loss for a while. They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t return to action until Thursday, Jan. 5, when they play Sibley East.

Spring turkey hunt applications accepted Twelve expanded permit areas wil l of fer wild turkey hunters more f lexibility and opportunity when they apply for the 2012 spring wild turkey hunt, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wild turkey permit areas have been consolidated into 12 new, larger areas from 77 smaller ones,â&#x20AC;? said Steve Merchant, DNR wildlife population and regulation program manager. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While Minnesotaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overall turkey range remains the same, larger geographic areas in which to hunt provide more choice within a single permit area.â&#x20AC;? Applications for the spring season are being accepted now through Friday, Jan. 13, wherever hunting and fi shing licenses are sold and online at mndnr.gov/buyalicense. The hunt will consist of six fiveday and two seven-day seasons. All adult resident and nonresident wild turkey hunters interested in hunting during one of the first four time periods must apply electronically. Licenses for the last four time periods will be sold over- the-counter only. Youth hunters ages 17 and younger can purchase a permit over-thecounter for any time period. All hunters must pay a nonrefundable $3 application fee at the time of application. Nonresident hunters may apply online or by telephone at (888) 665-4236 (MNLICENSE). A nonrefundable $3.50 transaction fee will be charged for online and telephone applications. Hunters who are not successful in the drawing may purchase surplus turkey permits, which are sold on a fi rst-come, fi rst-served basis in mid-March. They also may choose to purchase a license over-the-counter for any of the last four time periods. Unsuccessful applicants retain their preference points. For more information, call the DNR Information Center at (651) 296-6157.

Trapping training course scheduled The Minnesota Trappers Association and the Fish Lake Sportsmenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Club will host a furbearer trapping training course on 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays, Feb. 11 and Feb. 18, at the Scott County Association for Leadership and Efficiency (SCALE) Regional Training Facility, 17706 Valley View Dr. in Jordan.

CASH FOR SPIKERS

Snowmobile in Three Rivers Park District PHOTO BY MATHIAS BADEN

A donation of $8,000 means a lot to the Jordan Volleyball Assoc., said Jordan High School varsity volleyball coach Jason Geisel (right). â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s above and beyond.â&#x20AC;? In one day, 320 fans took test drives and earned money for the 120-player volleyball program. Drive One 4 UR School is an athletics sponsorship program offered by Wolf Motors of Jordan and Ford. Geisel said the money can be used for the end-of-the-season banquet, senior gifts, new volleyballs for the schools, nets at Minnesota River Special Education Cooperative gym, and DVDs of the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2011 state appearance.

For the 2011-2012 winter season, Three Rivers Park District is continuing its partnerships with area snowmobile clubs to provide linking trails in eight Three Rivers Parks. Earlier this month, the park districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board of commissioners approved ag reements allowing snow mobi le clubs to maintain trails that provide connections to Minnesotaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extensive network of snowmobile trails.

Jordan’s crime rate drops after ‘a couple of good months’ BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

Jorda n’s cri me rate has dropped after “a couple of good months,” Police Chief Bob Malz said last week. “We’ve actually fallen below our totals from last year. ... I’m encouraged.” The annual police report generally comes out in a few months, but Malz released his

report for November last week. According to the chief ’s monthly report to the Jordan City Council:

assaults were down to 27 so far in 2011 (zero in November), compared to 36 in the same period in 2010 (four in November 2010); drug-related offenses are down to 26 (zero in November), compared to 36 (three in November 2010); and total crime reported is down to 395 incidents, compared to 405.

Some increases showed up in the November 2011 report, too, including: DWIs are up to 45 so far this year, compared to 37 last year; theft increased to 110 incidents reported this year (10 in November), compared to 79 last year (six in November 2010); vehicle theft (and “vehicle related”) is up to five

C ou nci l memb er Jeremy Goebel asked Malz to “continue to push the schools” for increased funding. In the past, the district, city, and Minnesota River Special Education Cooperative each paid one-third of a school resource officer’s salary and benefits.

In voting against hiring another city employee

Last week, the Jordan Police Department responded to 102 incidents – 30 citations, 22 warning citations and 50 calls for service. Two weeks ago, the Jordan Police Department responded to 98 incidents – 27 citations, 11 warning citations and 60 calls for service.

BUDGET CUTS In 2001, the police department employed eight full-time officers, and in 2007, the city added a community service officer. As crime consistently decreased, budget cuts in 20082010 have trimmed the police department to seven officers. “In 2001, we served a population of 3,800 with eight full-time officers,” Malz wrote. “In 2011, we are serving a population of 5,500 with seven officers.” On average, cities with populations of 2,500 to 10,000 employ 1.6 of fers per 1,0 0 0 people, Malz wrote. “The state average would put us at 8.8 full-time officers.” Adding Rudolph brings the department up to eight, Malz told the council. During recent years, the police department has “cut many of our proactive crime preven-

tion programs, which in the past have shown great results in reducing our crime rate. Current staffing levels have caused us to revert back to a much more reactive philosophy than being proactive,” Malz wrote. The loss of a second sergeant position has caused extra duties to be assigned to the Sgt. Brett Empey and Malz. Call load and activity warrants additional police coverage on the weekends. “An additional officer should help,” Malz wrote.

TOP CANDIDATE Rudolph, a part-time police officer in Jordan since December 2008 and a volunteer police reserve just before his hiring, was the department’s top candidate. Prior to his promotion in Jordan, Rudolph last March received a promotion to security lead at St. Francis Regional Medical Center in Shakopee, where he has been a security officer since 2009. In 2008-2009, he worked as a loss prevention agent for Radermacher Foods, which runs Cub Foods in Shakopee.

He spent eight months of 2008 as a community service officer in Cottage Grove. Rudolph earned a master’s degree from the University of St. Thomas in Minneapolis, a bachelor’s from the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, and a certificate from the Center for Criminal Justice and Law Enforcement in St. Paul.

REACTION TO TAXES On Dec. 19, the council voted 6-1 to promote Rudolph. Mayor Pete Ewals cast the dissenting vote. He said that fi nancially, the city is in a better position than in past years, but “I don’t think we’re done yet.” Ewals pointed to the tax increases handed down from the state and federal governments, increasing national debt, and the state’s move to pillage the tobacco fund as a temporary means of balancing its budget. This year’s city budget slightly increases spending but does not increase the tax levy, even with the hiring of an officer. Ewals said he was not in favor of adding more staff. “Our taxes are high enough” he said.

Bar pulls gambling permit application The charitable gambling partnership between Jordan and Belle Plaine hit a bump in the road. Brewers of Jordan pulled its gambling permit application last month. Jordan Police Chief Bob Malz said he spoke with Ron Frey, the owner of the bar, about controversy occurring among members of the Belle Plaine Chamber of Commerce and the German Day organization. Frey decided to wait on the permit. The neighboring chamber had been running some charitable gambling at Brewers, while donating a portion of the proceeds – about $5,000 – to the Jordan Area Chamber of Commerce. The Belle Plaine chamber worked in Jordan for the fi rst time in 2011. Compiled by Mathias Baden

Olsen gets 30-year term for sex crime Travis Allan Olsen, 38, of Prior Lake, was sentenced Tuesday in Carver County District

Court to 30 years in prison after being convicted of first-degree criminal sexual conduct. Judge Philip T. Kanning ordered that after release from prison, Olsen will be subject to conditional release for the remainder of his life, which allows the state commissioner of corrections to take Olsen back into custody for a violation of the law. It was the maximum sentence allowed under the law, according to Carver County Attorney Mark Metz. Kanning also made a preliminary determination that a petition for civil commitment as a sexually dangerous person for Olsen is appropriate. On Sept. 20, following a seven-day trial, a Carver County jury found Olsen guilty. The jury heard evidence that, between January and April 2008, Olsen had sexual intercourse several times with a pre-teen girl in a Carver County home. He also engaged in sexual intercourse with the girl after April 2008, according to court testimony. Olsen was previously convicted of first- and third-degree criminal sexual conduct. He is considered a Level 3 predatory offender. Compiled by Pat Minelli

Heroin bound for county seized A California woman was arrested Dec. 10 at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport with 2 kilograms of black tar heroin, allegedly bound for the Scott County area. Authorities estimate the street value of the heroin at $640,000, according to a press release. The Southwest Metro Drug Task Force and Carver County Sheriff’s Office, with assistance from the MSP Airport Police, Nor thwest Hennepin Dr ug Task Force, agents of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and Homeland Security Investigations (HIS), arrested the 25-year-old woman after she exited the flight and retrieved luggage at the baggage claim. Drug task force agents obtained consent from the woman to search her luggage. The bottom of her luggage contained a false compartment that was inconsistent with similar bags, the release stated. Inside the false compartment of the bag, agents allegedly found a wrapped package, weighing approximately 4.4 pounds. Inside the wrapped

package was a substance the agents suspect was heroin. The task force earlier received a tip that the woman was a drug courier and planned to deliver the heroin to the Scott County area. Compiled by Kristin Holtz
