Tabke, Schmitt spar on issues

BY SHANNON FIECKE sfiecke@swpub.com

Is Shakopee behind the eight-ball in attracting business? Does it have gang problems? Are city employees and the City Council getting along?

Mayor John Schmitt and challenger Brad Tabke painted different pictures of the city in an Oct. 19 for u m sponsored by t he Shako pee Chamber of Commerce, with a crowd that spilled out of City Hall chambers.

Retail business has grown dramatically in Shakopee, homes continue to be built through the recession and the industrial park is “alive and well,� Schmitt pronounced during his opening statement.

He added the city has built 10 parks and overhauled three. “We’ve not been sitting on our hands fi guring out where our next dollar is coming from,� Schmitt said.

Shakopee has come a long way, agreed Tabke, but not far enough for a town that’s grown 80 percent since the last census.

Growth occurred so fast the city has disparate groups and “a lot of things happened to Shakopee that don’t make a lot of sense on global scale,� he said. “We need to say we are open for new ideas, new ways of thought,�

Tabke said. “That’s not happening right now.�

SCHOOL BOARD FORUM

Candidates find little to debate

Shakopeenews.com update If you were looking for a quarrel, last week’s Shakopee School Board forum wasn’t where you’d find it.

The four candidates running for School Board — Reggie Bowerman, Jeremy Casper, Matt McKeand and Angela Tucker — presented a rather unified picture of the district, agreeing that Shakopee’s biggest challenge is its growth. “We need to find a way to balance what’s best [for students] and really reach for the stars while finding the most efficient way to pay for it,� said McKeand during the Shakopee Chamber of Commerce-sponsored forum on Oct. 13.

The candidates, who are vying for three open seats, saw eye-to-eye on most issues; however, one candidate raised questions about the proposed second high school. The

The mayor and his challenger painted different pictures of the city in a forum that attracted an overflow crowd.

Schmitt: “We have a number on our plate today — the rehabilitation of downtown and completion of connections to downtown. We continue to promote and fi ll our industrial park.

Once it’s fi lled, annexation is critical.

We are down to 50 housing lots and working with developers to figure out where to go next.�

The first-of-its-kind interchange in Minnesota is nearly complete at the county roads 42 and 17 threelegged intersection.

Vehicles began using the overpass two weeks ago and final striping on the main structure went down Friday. “There’s not much work left, but we want people aware there’s still construction, particularly under the bridge,� said project manager Greg Felt of the Scott County Highway Department.

The project used a unique “A + B� bidding process that considers the daily costs of motorists waiting in traffic and taking different routes while the road is under construction. Scott was the second known county in the state to try this method and plans to use it in future projects.

Alden Beach might only be 9 years old, but he has a lot of questions about next month’s local election.

The Sun Path Elementary fourth-grader and his family attended last week’s Shakopee mayoral forum. Beach’s mom, Sara, thought the event would be the perfect place for Alden to get some answers. “I thought it was a wonderful opportunity to see the civic process in action, as well as to increase my own knowledge and my husband’s in what [the candidates] stood for and help us make a decision for the upcoming election,� she said.

Shakopee kids have been studying the Shakopee City Council, mayor and school board in recent weeks, contemplating who they think would best serve the community. On Nov. 8, they can cast special Election Day ballots at the city’s polling locations.

Kids Voting Shakopee is in its eighth year, allowing Shakopee students in grades three through 12 to explore the democratic process through classroom instruction, discussion with parents and casting a ballot.

Recognizing a growing trend of low voter turnout, Kids Voting Shakopee is building a strong generation of voters for the future, said

Mark Bury, a Kids Voting Shakopee volunteer.

Independent research done

by Kids Voting USA shows kids who experience civic involvement create habits of informed voting that will last through their adult years, he noted.

Since 2004, 11,384 Shakopee students have voted with the largest turnout in 2008 of 2,520 voters.

Students can cast ballots from 7 to 9 a.m. and 2:30 to 8 p.m. at polling locations in Shakopee and Jackson Town Hall. Savage precincts 5 and 7 will be open from 3 to 8 p.m.

Jordan council to take mayor to court JORDAN — With threats of litigation lingering, Jordan City Council Member Joe Thill offered an out for Mayor Pete Ewals.

“If we put it in front of you right now, would you sign it?”

Thill asked.

Ewals uncomfortably paused for 15 seconds, looking down in thought.

“I think we’re going to just end the discussion,” Ewals told Thill at the Oct. 17 City Council meeting. “I don’t really want to get into it.”

The mayor didn’t want to sign the amended zoning ordinance for which the City Council voted two weeks ago.

If enacted after signing and publication, it would allow crematories as accessory uses to funeral homes, effectively allowing Reflections Crematory to operate downtown, where Ewals has said a crematory does not belong.

Ewals also said that five votes are not enough to pass the zoning amendment. With council Member Thom Boncher and him voting against the proposal on Oct. 3, a supermajority vote was not achieved. City Attorney Annette Margarit, on the other hand, argued that state law, which supersedes city ordinance in this case, only a simple majority is necessary.

Jordan’s mayor and attorney will take their arguments to Scott County District Court. On Oct. 17, the Jordan City Council voted 5-2 to sue the mayor to get

SWCD to offer trees for sale The Scott Soil and Water Conser vation District in Jordan is offering young trees and shrubs for sale, including 35 varieties of conifer young stock, along with deciduous tree and shrub seedlings. New varieties this year include white spruce, golden (weeping) willow, pin cherry, false indigo and staghorn sumac.

Residents may also purchase rai n ba r rels, fou r types of native seed mixes and other tree care supplies and information books.

The tree prog ram was started to promote conservation and help residents create a more beautiful, healthy and ecologically balanced environment. Many of the county’s farmstead and field windbreaks, wildlife habitat plantings and reforestation efforts have been started as a result of this program. In more recent years, housing developments and community beautification projects have been enhanced with the tree and shrub program.

The Scott SWCD encourages all residents to utilize the tree program and purchase stock to start or add to their own beautification plans whether they own a city lot and want to plant a privacy hedge or own a couple of acres and want to start a windbreak.

Technical advice on tree plantings for windbreaks and shelterbelts is also available upon request.

The program begins in the fall of each year. Those who have ordered trees over the past couple years will receive a copy of the new tree order form in early October. Scott County residents may also request tree materials and order forms.

The trees, in bundles of 25, are sold on a fi rst-come, fi rst-served basis. If a variety is sold out, individuals will be notified immediately and given the opportunity to either substitute another variety or receive a refund.

Available prices and varieties are indicated on the order form. Payment must accompany every order.

All trees are bare-root seed lings or transplants varying in size from 8 inches to 3 feet tall.

Pickup for purchased trees and shrubs will be held in late April at the Scott County Fairgrounds. Customers who place orders will receive a letter about two weeks before delivery with the specific pickup information.

Residents can contact Diane Hrabe at the Scott SWCD office in Jordan at (952) 4925425 or visit www.scottswcd. org for an order form or additional information.

the ordinance signed.

LEGAL OPTIONS “Mayor Ewals has decided that he will not sign the above text Pete a mend ment Ewals bec ause he doesn’t agree with the ordinance’s approval,” Shukle said, reading a memorandum detailing his discussion with Ewals. “He believes the motion to approve the text amendment ordinance failed because he believes it is illegal.

He indicated that state law forbids him to sign this ordinance since it is illegal.”

Then, Margarit dropped a bomb, introducing 11 pages of legal options and supporting documents related to the mayor’s inaction on the ordinance, which Margarit deemed to be legally approved.

The mayor is responsible for ensuring a legal process is followed, the memo said. But by not signing the ordinance favored by the council, “the mayor essentially gives himself veto power over the rest of the council,” an authority that cannot be assumed, Margarit said.

The council’s options: I Go to court to get an alternate writ of mandamus, which would order Ewals to appear in court and explain his basis for not signing the ordinance.

If the court is not satisfied with Ewals’ legal explanation, the court can order the mayor to sign, Margarit said.

I Appoint Council Member Mike Shaw as acting mayor and have him sign the ordinance, a move Margarit cautioned “is not a slam dunk.”

I Take no action. “Undoubtedly, this will result in some response from Ballard-Sunder,” Margarit said.

At council Member Tanya Velishek’s request, Margarit made a recommendation. “I think you should see the writ of mandamus, because this deals with process, all right? This is a process. This is who has the power type of structure. This goes to the heart of council functioning. … It has to do with who has power on this council.”

Velishek made the motion, and it passed.

Prior to the council’s vote, Shaw asked if the mayor “would still like to hold back and say he’s not going to sign it after all this evidence.”

Ewa ls rebuked attempts

by Velishek, Shaw and Thill to engage in debate about the subject.

Ewals said that he thinks the council action on the ordinance is illegal “for more than one reason” and that he needs time to read the city attorney’s legal analysis.

“How much time could you possibly need?” Thill asked.

“That’s what I don’t want to get into right now,” Ewals said.

“I don’t want to get into this, so let’s just stop with that and move on.”

“The mayor is forcing our hand to take him to court,” council Member Jeremy Goebel said.

Before the council’s vote,

City Administrator Ed Shukle said lawsuits could potentially be fi led against the mayor and the city. He asked the council to consider its legal options “to avoid potential lawsuits.”

Margarit’s memo, though, lacked any no-cost options.

“I want to clarify,” Velishek said. “So if we do the alternate writ of mandamus and we go that route, the city initiates.

If we decide to go with the acting mayor to sign, we could get sued by an interest group.

If we don’t do anything, we’re going to get sued by Ballard.

We’re going to get sued any of the ways.”

“The council’s going to be sued no matter what you do,” Margarit said.

The city will incur legal fees, the attorney said, and the court date will take place within a month.

Prior to the council’s vote, Goebel pleaded with Ewals to not waste taxpayer money on legal fees.

Ewals recounted some of what happened during a yearlong struggle to stop a new downtown crematory, when he originally didn’t question the legality of Ballard-Sunder Funeral Home’s conditionaluse permit, later recommended relooking at the CUP, Jordan C om mu nit y Ac tion Group (JCAG) sued the city, and the city lost in court but then appealed. He said the city proceeded with the court appeal despite lackluster odds of winning.

“We’ve followed the process,” Velishek said, “and now we’ve made a stop in the process.”

The Prior Lake Police Department responded to the robbery call at 10 a.m. Bank employees described the robber to police as about 5-feet-8 with a medium build, wearing all black, including a black hooded sweatshirt and a garment covering his face.

The robber entered the bank and demanded money before fleeing the scene on foot, according to a press release from the Police Department.

The bank is located at 14033 Commerce Ave., which is near the intersection of County Road 42 and Highway 13.

Prior Lake police are investigating this incident in collaboration with the FBI. Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact police at (952) 445-1411 or the Minneapolis FBI office at (612) 376-3200.

Hope for Holidays sponsors sought The Scott Carver Dakota Community Action Partnership (CAP) Agency is seeking sponsors for its yearly Hope for the Holidays program. Hope for the Holidays assists families living in Scott and Carver counties that are unable to provide holiday gifts for their children.

Sponsors for the Hope for the Holidays program are very broad and include individuals, businesses, churches and orga-

nizations. Instead of providing general holiday gifts, sponsors are matched with individual families with a suggested donation of $50 per child.

Having enough sponsors for the Hope for the Holidays program is critical in keeping up with the increased demand for this program, organizers say. They said that although the economy is making a slow turnaround many families that utilize the programs provided by the Scott Carver Dakota CAP Agency are still struggling and depend on this program to provide the holiday experience that every child deserves.

“The families that utilize this program are so moved by the support they receive,” said Linda Shelton, vice president of community services. “There is no greater gift to them than the ability to be able to provide their children with gifts during the holiday season.”

Those interested in sponsoring a family this holiday season can register now through Nov. 1 by calling (952) 402-9871 or by visiting www.capagency.org for a sponsorship form.

Special deer hunts planned in area Three Rivers Park District will conduct special deer hunts to keep deer herds in balance with available habitat. This will necessitate the closing, or partial closing, of some parks.

Archery deer hunts will take place Nov. 11-13 in Crow-Hassan Park Reserve (city of Hanover and Hassan Township), MurphyHanrehan Park Reserve (Savage), and Cleary Lake Regional

Park (Prior Lake). During the archery hunts these parks will be closed; however, the off-leash dog areas at Cleary Lake Regional Park and Crow-Hassan Park Reserve will remain open.

Shotg u n deer hu nts a re scheduled Nov. 19-20 at Carver Park Reserve (Victoria) and Nov. 26-27 at Lake Rebecca Park Reserve (Rockford). During the shotgun hunts, these parks will be closed. The off-leash dog area in Carver Park will be closed on Nov. 19-20. However, the Lake Sarah off-leash dog area will remain open on the weekend of Nov. 27-28.

A mu z z leloader hu nt i s scheduled for December 3-4 at Mur phy-Hanrehan Park Reserve. During this hunt, the park will be closed.

Three Rivers Park District selects a limited number of archery hunters by lottery.

A limited number of shotgun and muzzleloader hunters are selected by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.

Hunters have already been selected for this year’s hunts.

In addition to temporarily closing the parks to the public, the Park District takes several measures to ensure the safety of nearby residents. Shotgun hunting boundaries are established well within park property where homes are located adjacent to park borders. Hunters may not go beyond these boundaries unless they are accompanied by a park police officer. In addition, all shotgun and muzzleloader hunters must attend a pre-hunt orientation that stresses firearm safety procedures. Deer hunters must also follow all applicable DNR regulations.

Sponsors needed to bring Christmas smiles to kids The Scott Carver Dakota Community Action Partnership (CAP) Agency is seeking sponsors for its yearly Hope for the Holidays program. Hope for the Holidays assists families living in Scott and Carver counties that are unable to provide holiday gifts for their children. It’s no secret that there are many families in that predicament this year.

Typical sponsors include individuals, businesses, churches and civic organizations. Sponsors are matched with individual families and the suggested donation is $50 per child.

Time is of the essence for sponsors to sign up: The deadline to register is Nov. 1 — next Tuesday. Those interested can register now through

Nov. 1 by calling (952) 402-9871 or by visiting www.capagency.org for a sponsorship form.

For many struggling families in the area, this program provides the only opportunity for children to receive any sort of Christmas gift. A relatively small donation can bring big smiles to the faces of deserving children on Christmas morning.

“The families that utilize this program are so moved by the support they receive,” said Linda Shelton, vice president of community services for CAP. “There is no greater gift to them than the ability to be able to provide their children with gifts during the holiday season.”

GUEST COMMENTARY

Please read: How to act as a hotel guest

BY SANDRA J. TORRINI

It seems there is a need to educate the general public on how to behave as guests at a hotel.

I work in the hotel industry and am constantly amazed at how little understanding most people have regarding hotel operations, common courtesy and guest etiquette. Until three years ago I was always able to make a living for myself. But in 2008 I was laid off my job of nine years and I’ve been working part-time as a hotel front-desk clerk since then.

I am a diligent worker and enjoy helping guests. But no matter how hard I try, there are still those guests who have a sour attitude and write nasty reviews or make a complaint to try to get their room for free.

People oftentimes use the word “rude” to describe any communication from hotel staff where they did not receive what they wanted immediately, regardless of whether it was possible or was even something they were entitled to.

This is typical of the attitude some guests have toward hotel staff that are doing their best to serve them (even at a two-star hotel).

For instance, one morning a woman told me she thought the sheets on her bed were not clean when she checked in because her sheets smelled like BO. I asked when she checked in and she said “yesterday.” When a guest accepts, sleeps in or consumes items in a room overnight it is considered used goods in the morning.

On mornings after the hotel had been booked solid the previous night, most of the towel inventory is being used in the rooms. When people ask for extra towels, they are made available if there are some clean towels in the laundry room.

People do not understand that each room is allotted a certain number of towels per day according to the number of beds and maximum number of persons allowed for each room type. There is not an endless supply of inventory. Dirty towels have to be washed, dried, folded and stocked before they can be made available to guests, they don’t just magically appear.

Some points that should be covered: I Noise level during quiet hours: Gently close doors, do not run or talk loudly in hallways or common areas. (Supervise children especially in common areas.

I Continental breakfast: Do not abuse the complimentary breakfast (remember the food is for all the hotel’s guests). Wear appropriate clothing for a public place where food is consumed (shirt and shoes, please). Use tongs to pick up food (not your hands). Supervise young children in the making of hot waffles, dispensing hot coffee and

Leave the room in a reasonable state (separate out dirty clothing and place dirty linens in the bathtub).

Leave a clearly marked tip for maid service daily instead of at the end of your stay (there may be more than one employee cleaning your room during your stay).

I Hotel staff: Be polite and respectful to hotel staff when making requests and give them time to fulfill your request. It is not appropriate to inquire about discounted rates at checkout as rates are secured at the time of booking. Use your manners when communicating with staff — you will get better results.

I Complaints and problems: Report problems to the front desk immediately so they may have a chance to rectify the problem. Be reasonable if you are expecting compensation. It is not helpful to argue or use abusive language to get compensation — disorderly conduct is a misdemeanor and could get you evicted from the premises without compensation of any kind.

I Room capacity: Be honest about the number of guests occupying the room, especially adults as prices are based on double occupancy (each guest consumes supplies, utilities and services which cost the hotel money).

I Pool usage: Leave pool towels in the hamper so they may be laundered for other guests. Adults must supervise children under 14 years of age in the pool area.

Obey the posted pool rules and regulations — they are there for a reason.

I Smokers: Smoke in designated areas and use ashtrays.

I Reviews: Do not vent anger in public forums out of spite because your stay was not perfect.

Such behavior is unethical and is beneficial to no one. Give honest and accurate survey responses as this is how hotels know which areas need improvement.

Here is my position on trying new things to do I’m willing to adjust my attitude from time to time and try new things. I took off for a weekend this month just to try and do geocaching. If that looks like a made up word to you, well you’re right it is. It combines two words: geo (Greek), meaning “of the earth,” and cache (French), which is a temporary hiding place.

Geocaching incorporates concepts of older games with modern technology. It has elements of “Hide and Seek,” a scavenger hunt, and the old “you’re getting warmer … warmer … colder … warmer … warmer” game of finding a hidden something or other. In geocaching the clues to find the hidden object are longitude and latitude coordinates, such as N 43 (degrees) 31.577’ and W 92 (degrees) 30.946’.

Using global positioning satellites or GPS technology the seeker enters the coordinates into a GPS device. Many people use an expensive portable device that gives directional help, but a smart phone can also be used if you are not smart enough to remember bring the expensive toy with you.

Either one lets you know if you are getting closer (warmer) or further away (colder).

There is no shortage of places to mess around with geocaching.

Hundreds of thousands of people participate in it every year all over the Earth (or geo if you prefer). So it was just a matter of time before I was forced to check it out.

Up until recently I was able to stay in the truck while others scurried about trying to locate hidden treasure. But this time

Jerry

KUCERA COMMUNITY COLUMNIST

an entire weekend was devoted to geocaching in Minnesota state parks.

When the idea was first presented for my consideration I carelessly said, “I don’t care where I go, I care where I stay.” You see I like traveling, I just don’t like camping. I thought if that message was communicated clear enough I could have a relaxing weekend spent in a hotel somewhere reading and relaxing while others chased wild geese. Once again I didn’t ask enough questions.

There are over 70 state parks and recreation areas in Minnesota and each one has at least one hidden treasure waiting to be found using GPS technology. The goal is to find the official cache at all the parks within a certain time period. A local teacher and his wife were the first ones to complete that task in Minnesota.

The modern-day treasure hunters collect stamps, patches and pins when a certain number of these state-sponsored caches have been found. My daughter Jennifer

and her husband Adam have taken up the task of visiting all 73 state parks. So recently she and her mother conspired to involve the whole family.

In two days, traveling over 450 miles, we stopped in at eight state parks; fun for the whole family. We shared trails with horses, climbed hundreds of stairs, scampered up rocky cliffs, traversed ravines, forded streams, explored caves, island hopped and made our presence known in a ghost town.

I think the state of Minnesota is using geocaching as a device to introduce people to the state parks.

I was at parks that I had never heard of. All eight parks that we visited were beautiful and each had its own unique identity. I can see why some people like this kind of thing.

Geocaching wouldn’t be my first choice, but you have to participate in the activities that are important to your friends and family. My global position is not one of resistance to change and trying new things. I may not always like it but I try to have fun with it. It’s like what Jimmy Buffet said: It’s these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes Nothing remains quite the same.

With all of our running and all of our cunning If we couldn’t laugh we would all go insane.

GUEST COMMENTARY

Drunken driving: We are all responsible

BY BRENDA FLURY GREIG

For those who are not chemically addicted, this may seem irrelevant. It is not. The pervasiveness of alcoholism and its horrific effects requires we cast a greater net of responsibility.

In order to make a change in the recurring pattern of drunken driving, we all must get involved.

Non-addicted people generally respond, “It’s not my problem.

If they can’t drink, that’s their issue.” Not so. The way we respond to addiction issues impacts us all. Drunken-driving fatalities

claim hundreds of lives every year. Inevitably the news report will show images of smashed vehicles while interviewing family members of the deceased.

The cry of their heart will be that the accident “didn’t need to happen … the person shouldn’t be driving drunk.” The mug shot will show the alleged drunken driver while representatives from antidrunken-driving organizations will espouse the need for harsher consequences. Sadly, things have decidedly not changed over the years.

Penalties for drunken driving

have gotten stiffer but that is not the answer to stopping this epidemic. Alcoholism is so pervasive (one in 10 people is alcoholic) and society’s use of alcohol is so widespread and accepted that the methods we have used to-date simply don’t work.

Once someone begins putting alcohol into their system, their ability to make rational decisions (that they may otherwise make) becomes distorted. The more alcohol that is ingested, the more incapable one becomes of making

Commentary ELECTION LETTERS

Reggie Bowerman for School Board I am writing to recommend Reggie Bowerman for the Shakopee School Board. I worked for Reggie in the past and know he is a great leader. He is someone I would work for again in a heartbeat.

H e i s a lw ay s w e l l - p r e pared, looks at all angles of an argument and makes sound/ practical decisions. I have faith that he will put the children first while still being cognizant of the bottom line.

He has been a n i nteri m School Board member, so he can hit the ground running. He currently serves on other education boards so you know he is committed to learning.

I have a vested interest with two children that currently or will attend Shakopee schools.

So, please join me in voting for Reggie Bowerman.

Chris Moen Shakopee I am writing to endorse Reggie Bowerman for School Board.

As a former Shakopee School Board member, it is my opinion that providing a quality education for all children should be the highest priority. During his previous School Board term, he and I served on a special committee. He demonstrated a professional and respectful manner in dealing with fellow members as well as the district community. In addition, he was very knowledgeable and always well-prepared.

Our district is becoming more diverse and faces many challenges both educationally and financially. Reggie Bowerman will direct the administration to spend your tax dollars wisely but in a way that provides the best possible education opportunities for all students.

Bob Techam Shakopee We are writing this letter to express our support for Reggie Bowerman for Shakopee School Board. We have known Reggie and his family for the past seven years. During that time, we have had a number of occasions to discuss various school topics. We have always found Reggie to be very interested in listening to both sides of the issues. He is always asking “help me better understand this issue.” We may not always agree, but we feel confident that Reggie will listen to the facts and use his practical judgment and common sense help make the decisions that will help the Shakopee School District through these critical times.

The School Board is experiencing significant turnover and school administration has a number of new people in key positions. With this turnover, Reggie’s School Board and business world experience will be a valuable asset to the district. While Reggie was on the School Board in 2008 and 2009, we were very impressed with his ability to grasp the many difficult and complex issues facing the School Board.

He quickly became a valuable contributing member. Reggie’s involvement on the Facilities Task Force also demonstrates this ability. We encourage you to vote for Reggie Bowerman for School Board. We also encourage everyone to research all the candidates, become an informed citizen and remember to vote on Nov. 8.

Lisa and Allen Larson Savage I strongly endorse Reggie Bowerman for the Shakopee School Board.

Having taught in the district for over 20 years, I have a deep interest in the upcoming election. We are losing four experienced board members, so I was gratified to learn that Reggie is willing to serve our children, schools and commu-

appropriate decisions. At that juncture, threats of harsh penalties fall on deaf ears. It simply doesn’t work to reason with someone affected by the chemicals in alcohol. Their capacities for reasoning and good decision making are

nity. I support him because I have worked with him on the Shakopee Educational Endowment Foundation. I had been a member for several years when Reggie joined the group. Right from the start he made valuable contributions by fi rst listening and then quickly analyzing situations. He displays wise decision-making skills and an effective leadership style, which will be a tremendous asset on the School Board.

Reggie’s credentials include degrees in business and law, plus 25 years experience in busi ness management and fi nancial accountability. In addition, he served on the School Board in 2008-09 when he was chosen to fill a term due to a resignation, plus he was a recent member of the facilities task force. These experiences provide a knowledge base that will be needed when the majority of the incoming board is composed of new members.

Please join me in casting your vote for Reggie Bowerman on Nov. 8.

LeAnn Kugath Shakopee Our community is fortunate that Reggie Bowerman is running for School Board.

For the past two years, he has served as a board member of the Shakopee Educational Endowment Foundation (SEEF).

Since 1991 our foundation has donated over $193,000 to our district, funding educational opportunities that go beyond the district’s budget. Reggie has been a valuable member who has demonstrated outstanding leadership and problem-solving abilities. All our members are unpaid volunteers who give freely of their time.

In addition, he and his wife Lesa have made a considerable fi nancial commitment to SEEF by becoming the only individual members of our “sustainer” level of donors.

Our district will be facing many challenging problems in the coming years. Reggie Bowerman’s many years of business-management experience will help the district make sound fi nancial decisions that allocate resources wisely. He has shown his commitment to quality education by being a dedicated parent, former School Board member, and a highly regarded member of SEEF. I take genuine pleasure in recommending his election to the School Board.

Jack Trimbo Shakopee For those that know or have worked with Reggie Bowerman there is a common reverence for his intellect, experience and passion.

I met Reggie when we, the School Board, interviewed him for the vacancy in 2008. In the interview, I was impressed with his leadership background, ability to communicate ideas, educational philosophy, and zest for continuous improvement; and even more so as I worked with him on the School Board.

The Shakopee School District voters have a great opportunity in this upcoming vote to elect several very qualified individuals but none so much as Mr. Bowerman.

Reggie has a strong belief in his civic responsibility and a genuine interest in education, which is reflected in his own zest for learning as he is a fervent reader and at the age of 40 earned his law degree.

He has past School Board experience (2008-2009 board appointee) and has an uncanny ability to ask probing questions, challenge people and formulate goals, so continuous improvement is welcomed and measured. This is extremely important at a time of transition (new superintendent, four new board members, three newer principals, and new director of curriculum) and a great opportunity for Shakopee.

impaired — period.

So what will work? How can we change this horrific epidemic?

Learn about alcoholism — even if it isn’t a disease that affects you directly. It IS a disease that can kill you or your family member because it affects so many people.

Assess and take responsibility for your own

Having served as an elementary school principal in Shakopee for four years and four years on the school board, I feel I have a broad perspective of our school district and a good understanding of the talent and the needs of the district.

Reg g ie’s ski l l set i s extremely valuable and needed.

His experience on the School Board, Curriculum Advisory Committee, Shakopee Citizens for Education, different local education task forces, and as a board member of the Shakopee Education Endowment Foundation will help bring knowledge and background to the tough decisions that are coming. Not to mention his 25 years of business management, team leadership, fi nancial accountability, resource allocation, and strong analytical decision-making skills, practical judgment and common sense.

Please vote for leadership by electing Reggie Bowerman for School Board on Nov. 3.

John Canny Savage I am writing in support of Reggie Bowerman’s candidacy for Shakopee School Board.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Reggie Bowerman and his family for the past 11 years as a neighbor. During this time, I have seen Reggie demonstrate a strong commitment to both his family and community.

Given his high degree of ethical and moral beliefs, he is the type of person you’d want living next door to you.

Reggie is very experienced in local education. His service includes an appointment to the School Board in 2008, Shakopee Curriculum Advisory Committee member, citizen member of school task forces and committees, Shakopee Citizens for Education volunteer and Shakopee Education Endowment Foundation board member. During his service on the Shakopee School Board, Reggie was an effective leader who was very approachable and willing to spend the time to discuss issues openly and enthusiastically.

On the professional side, Reggie’s own broad educational background (B.A., M.B.A. and J.D.) and 25 years employed in successful leadership positions give him an incredible backdrop to be an effective member of the Shakopee School Board. His experience with team leadership, financial accountability, resource allocation and decision-making will help make him a valuable asset during these next four years, when many important decisions will be made in the district. Reggie’s prior School Board experience will allow him to quickly move forward in addressing these issues.

If your goal is to provide our Shakopee schools with the tools and guidance necessary for a successful future, please join me in voting for Reggie Bowerman for Shakopee School Board.

Debbie Voit Shakopee I’ve had the pleasure of working with Reggie Bowerman as a member of the Shakopee School Board and on numerous committees. Reggie has impressed me with his ability to both lead and listen. He was thoughtful and insightful and always implored the team to keep the needs of our children at the forefront of our considerations.

As a longtime parent volunteer in our schools, and as an outgoing School Board member, I recognize the talent and commitment Reggie will bring to our School Board. His 25 years of business experience will provide critical insight for our School Board as it moves forward with implementing the work outlined in our strategic plan. His prior experience will be especially valuable at a time when four current board mem-

attitudes and behaviors around alcohol. How you act impacts others. You can influence others to place less significance on alcohol at gatherings and events by taking simple steps. If you provide alcohol, you are responsible.

Get involved. When you are at an event where alcohol is served, you are in a position

bers are leaving.

I know Reggie will embrace the opportunity to implement the goals we have outlined for our children and our community. More importantly, I believe he will work to make sure that these goals, and any new goals identified, are implemented in a fiscally responsible way.

I have fi rsthand knowledge of the issues and concerns that both parents and taxpayers of Shakopee schools share. I firmly believe Reggie is the best candidate to fully represent the interests of all of the stakeholders in our district.

I hope you share my enthusiasm for Reggie as a School Board candidate and ask you to please join me in voting for Reggie Bowerman on Nov. 8.

Chuck Berg Shakopee I am writing in support of Reggie Bowerman’s candidacy for School Board.

In the past, as an employee of the school district, I never felt it appropriate to endorse candidates for election. Now that I am no longer directly involved, I feel the need to raise Reggie as a top candidate for your consideration. I base my support on professional and personal interaction with Reggie, including the time he successfully served as a board member a couple of years ago.

What struck me immediately was his concern for students and the strong desire on his part to maximize educational opportunities.

Reggie is intelligent and articulate. His extensive management experience in the private sector is a real plus for a School Board member. He understands the role of a board and the leadership it should provide for an organization. Reggie’s background in fi nance, evaluative experience, and big-picture perspective for improvement are huge assets. He is a sound thinker and decision-maker.

In addition to his board experience, Reggie has demonst rated his interest and commitment to public education and Shakopee schools in a number of significant ways.

His service on the Curriculum Advisory Council, Facilities Planning Task Force, and the Financial Planning Task Force are three examples of the impor tant volunteer work he has given to the district over the years. These efforts have provided him with a deep and varied understanding of the workings of the district and will serve him well as a contributing board member.

I am impressed with the quality of the candidates seeking your vote in this School Board election. I see them as a positive example for the support this community provides its schools. I simply feel Reggie Bowerman needs to be an integral member of the board going forward. He is a positive difference-maker that deserves our vote.

Matt was a father, he always showed interest in improving the educational system in this country. In discussions he would ask questions regarding my thoughts on the subject.

There were times when it was clear he and I did not share the same viewpoint. Despite this, it impressed me that he was asking the questions. A quality School Board member has to be willing to ask questions that may have difficult answers. As Shakopee continues to grow, many challenges will present themselves. Matt McKeand will not shy away from addressing these issues.

Matt has already demonstrated his commitment to the students, teachers, parents, and taxpayers of Shakopee by participating in the Facilities Task Force, which was asked to create a vision for Shakopee schools as the community continues into its future. Matt and the committee balanced the needs of students, parents and teachers, while at the same time showing a clear understanding of the importance of fi scal responsibility. In these difficult economic times this was not an easy task. Matt McKeand did not shy away from this responsibility and was proud to support the task force’s fi nal proposal.

As one of your representatives on the Shakopee School Board, Matt will balance the interests of parents, teachers and the taxpayers, while keeping his primary focus where it should be, on the students of the Shakopee Public Schools.

Please strongly consider casting one of your votes for School Board for Matt McKeand on Tuesday, Nov. 8.

Chris Gallagher Bloomington

Jay Whiting for City Council Jay Whiting is the candidate for Shakopee City Counci l who makes the most sense when talking about economic development. His ideas about attracting business and creating a long-term plan for future industrial, commercial and retail space is the only idea I have heard that will help to bring jobs to Shakopee.

Any improvements in this area that he can bring will help ease the tax burden on families and help balance out the taxes on our homes. It is time for a fresh face on the council. I am voting for Jay Whiting.

Arvid Sorenberger Shakopee

Matt Lehman for City Council

I am writing in support of Matt McKeand’s candidacy for Shakopee School Board.

I have been honored to call Matt a friend for close to 20 years. For 10 of the 20 years he and his wife Greta have been proud residents of Shakopee, raising two beautiful children in the community they have chosen to call home. I believe it is Matt McKeand’s desire to play a role in creating the best possible public education for not only his children, but all the children of Shakopee, which drives his desire to be a member of the Shakopee School Board.

I am a proud public school teacher of 14 years. Even before

Re-elect Matt Lehman to City Council for proven representation that actually does care about our level of taxes.

Matt has always served the citizens of Shakopee by representing their views. Too many politicians seem to believe that what the people want must be overturned to suit their view of what they think is best for us.

We need Matt Lehman on the council to ask the tough questions so everyone understands each issue. When answers are not available that evening he will vote to table the issue until the answers are available.

As Matt likes to say, “I’m not working for them, I’m working for my constituents.” Look at his website and his record.

Consider the long hours needed to be properly fi lled in and get ready for each issue that comes up at the council meetings.

This is one council member who has constantly taken the time to go to the scene whenever necessary so he is prepared and then ask those questions at the council meetings he is known for.

As a lifetime Shakopee citizen, a husband, father, grandfather and a local small-business owner, he knows what the is-

to make a change. If someone has been drinking and intends to drive, stop them.

Call the police if necessary but stop it from happening.

Lobby for change in how alcohol is advertised. It is NOT just something that makes an event more fun.

It IS a dangerous substance and its consequences are deadly. Insist that marketing

illustrate both results of its consumption similar to the way tobacco is advertised today.

Support those who are in recovery. We have made alcoholism a social disgrace. NO ONE wants to be an alcoholic. It’s extremely difficult to live a life of sobriety in a sea of alcohol.

Jon McBroom Shakopee Jon McBroom is a former superintendent of the Shakopee School District.

Matt McKeand for School Board

sues are and what is affecting us daily. For almost 20 years now Matt has been involved in community service in one form or another.

Vote for your own and Shakopee’s best interest. Vote to return Matt Lehman to the City Council and re-elect John Schmitt mayor. In these disconcerting times we need proven representation.

Donald Wagner Shakopee A n ar ticle in the Val ley News this month under “Remember When” 50 years ago stated the Shakopee Chamber of Commerce was lobbying to redevelop the riverfront. Ironic that today that the chamber has candidates in the mayor/ council races supported by the chamber members with the chamber also doing the candidate forums.

The chamber also stacked the economic advisory ad-hoc committee with members to push their agendas. These chamber candidates are using the same sounds-too-good-tobe-true lines like unite Shakopee, force new businesses into Shakopee with taxpayer handouts, build a new rec center (bypassing the voter referendum), add 10 cops (20 percent increase), redevelop the riverfront (forget property owner rights), etc. Nothing is more dividing than special-interest groups between the people and their representatives.

In this bad economic climate, I prefer to focus on the taxpayers’ needs, not special interests.

I support John Schmitt to be reelected as mayor because I have worked with him and while we don’t always agree, he respects my positions and I respect his. This is a classic display of a working democracy. He is willing to hear all sides to the issues. John Schmitt also understands the larger economic situation we are in and the impacts on taxpayers.

The city has a 2030 comp plan, and a visioning document that encompasses everything from a to z. Both Schmitt and myself are working toward those goals while being mindful of the taxpayers. I respectfully ask for your vote to reelect John Schmitt mayor and of course, return me to council to continue representing you.

I also think Pat Heitzmen is worthy of re-election because he also represents the average person.

I usually don’t endorse others like this. However, in my opinion, some of these other candidates’ agendas lack a focus on the taxpayers’ best interests. Experience and track records are important in this economic climate.

Matt Lehman Shakopee

Brad Tabke for mayor It is with my sincerest pleasure to write this letter on behalf of Mr. Brad Tabke.

I think it is extremely important that the rest of Shakopee gets to know Brad as well as I have had the opportunity to do so. I’ve been very fortunate to serve on the ShakopeeConnect Committee with Brad, as well as knowing him on a more personal and professional level.

Working with Brad has not only been instrumental to the group’s success, but also my personal success.

Brad has gone above and beyond any of my askings to help me and help my business without ever asking for a single favor i n retu r n. Sha kopee needs a leader like Brad to not only help stimulate our local businesses, but take Shakopee to the upper echelon of Twin Cities suburbs.

The time for change is now, and there is no better leader for change than Mr. Brad Tabke.

Geoff Engelhart Shakopee

LIVESREMEMBERED Robert J. Klehr

James Allen Link

Robert "Bob" John Klehr was born Aug. 14, 1929 in Credit River Township, MN to parents Alois and Hildegard (Theis) Klehr.

Bob worked on the family farm until age 30. Bob then continued to work at Owens Illinois in Shakopee for 10 years and finished his last 18 years of work at Knox Lumber. Bob spent most of his retirement years volunteering at St. Michael's Catholic Church maintaining the grounds of the parish. He spent numerous hours each week keeping everything clean and manicured.

He built Klehr field (where the current church lies), which was used for many years for sports activities, not just for the church members but for the community at large.

He was a devout Catholic, an active member of the Church of St. Michael and a member of the Knights of Columbus. Bob enjoyed playing cards, was an avid Twins fan, loved fishing, gardening, softball and most of all visiting with friends and family.

Bob's passion was his family and church. He truly adored and loved his surviving sisters, Mary Ann Mahowald of Prior Lake and Anna Mae VonBokern of Shakopee, and all of his nieces, nephews and all of his many friends.

Bob will be welcomed into heaven by his parents, Alois and Hilda Klehr; sister, Suverna (Clarence) Hennen; brother-in-laws, Francis Mahowald and Donald VonBokern.

On Friday Oct. 21, 2011, on a clear fall morning, at the age of 82, Bob was welcomed in to heaven at The Lodge on Natchez in Elko, MN. The visitation was Wednesday, Oct. 26 from 10-12 a.m., followed by the Mass of Christian Burial at 12 noon, all at the Church of St. Michael in Prior Lake. Father Tom Sieg officiated. Interment will be at St. Michael's Catholic Cemetery in Prior Lake.

James "Jim" P. Rutoski On Dec. 11, 1937 in Lydia, MN, Ignatius and Viola Rutoski welcomed the birth of their son, James Rutoski.

GHOSTS continued from page 1

“When people call me, I’m the last resort,” she said.

Shakopee might not have the famous ghosts of St. Paul’s Fitzgerald’s Theatre or Duluth’s Glensheen Mansion, but the town does have its spirits.

Machowski likes to walk around St. Mary’s Cemetery on 10th Avenue and take photos – “there’s always a ghost hanging out in a cemetery,” she said. She’s gotten two photos of ghosts – one of a small woman in a translucent, long dress with flowers in her hair and another of a man with a huge face and curly hair standing in the shadows.

Machowski has also heard rumors about ghosts from a cemetery near Canterbury Park walking into nearby houses and leaving mud tracks on the floor.

Recently, Machowski’s team investigated a Shakopee house in which the kids reported seeing a shadow man in the hallway and religious pictures ripped off the wall.

Machowski said she witnessed the dog chase a ball of light from the basement and her purse being thrown off the kitchen table.

From her evidence, Machowski determined that one spirit was bringing other spirits into the house and then preventing them from crossing over. She cleansed the house and said things are much better there now.

Not all clients ask Machowski to cleanse and seal the house.

“A lot of times, the people in Minnesota like their ghosts and don’t want them to leave,”

SCHOOL BOARD continued from page 1

School Board accepted a recommendation from its facilities task force in January to build a second high school.

Casper said he’s still not necessarily sold on the concept, saying it could change the district’s dynamics. He’d like to look at enrollment projections beyond 2019.

“I don’t want to come [onto the board] saying we’re going to build a second high school and make it sound like it’s decided,” Casper said. “I think we need to be talking with the community… [and] make sure the community is behind it, so when we go ask for referendum money, that it passes the first time.”

The three other candidates served on the facilities task force and support the proposal.

McKeand said a second high school is the most cost-effective way to achieve the district’s ideal grade configuration of 6-8 and 9-12.

The task force looked at least 10 different possible scenarios, Bowerman said. The proposal is not only a good curriculum match, but also gives students more oppor tunities than a mega high school, he added.

The district’s most immediate concern, however, is easing the crunch at the middle school and junior high levels, Tucker said.

“We need to get back to having smaller class sizes,” she said. “We need to give these kids a more comfortable environment.”

Kathy Machowski she said.

Shakopee historian Betty Dols doesn’t believe in ghost stories, but she can tell you the gripping tale of a Shakopee grave robbery.

In the winter of 1883, the night watchman at Valley Cemetery in Shakopee noticed suspicious footprints around the grave of Julia Unze. It was enough for authorities to dig up Unze’s coffin.

“The coffin was full of dirt.

No Julia,” Dols said.

Fingers were pointed at doctors, who at the time “were always being accused of digging up cadavers to do research on,” Dols said. But nothing was discovered.

In May, a decapitated woman’s nude corpse was found floating in the Minnesota River. It was missing a leg.

The community held an inquest into its identity, though many, including Shakopee Argus Editor George Hinds, believed the body to be Unze’s. After an inconclusive autopsy the body was buried in Unze’s Valley Cemetery grave, Dols said.

The coffin was later dug up for a second inconclusive autopsy. Today, Unze’s grave is unmarked.

Scott County Historical Society volunteer Mary Beckrich recalled a tale of another body missing from its coffin – but this own

October 27, 2011 | Page 7 disappeared on her own recognizance.

Beckrich, who grew up in Shakopee, remembers her mother telling the story of a deceased woman, on display for the viewing, climbing out her casket and walking away.

“My mother said [the woman] never walked again.

She always ran after that,” Beckrich said laughing. She doesn’t know if the story has any truth to it, but her mother wasn’t one for telling tall tales, she said.

The historical society’s museum, Stans House, might even have some ghosts.

Machowski said her Beyond the Veil team found two spirits, one a talkative man who said he missed Jim. She also has a photo of a shaving mirror with an image of a man in a mustache.

Machowski, who teaches ghost hunting classes, urges people to be careful attempting to catch a spirit’s voice because eventually you will.

But what you’re attracting on your tape recorder might be not be a good spirit (spirits, like people, can be both good and bad, she said) or could just be passing through since they travel freely.

As a ghost hunter, Machowski is no stranger to skeptics. However, after years investigating the paranormal, she has no doubts.

“Not everyone can see a spirit. Not everyone can hear a spirit. But they are out there,” she said.

election2011 Meet the Shakopee City Council candidates Nine people will be seeking two open four-year terms on the Shakopee City Council on Nov. 8. The seats are now held by incumbents Matt Lehman and Pat Heitzman. Both are

seeking re-election. Eight of the nine candidates are profi led on these pages. The ninth candidate, Eric Brown, did not respond to repeated attempts to contact him for an interview.

Matt Lehman

Michael Luce

BY SHANNON FIECKE sfiecke@swpub.com

BY SHANNON FIECKE sfiecke@swpub.com

Matt Lehman has accomplished a feat few members of Congress probably have.

He read the national health care reform bill — “all 1,500 pages.”

Lehman, who frets about the nation’s debt, considers himself the taxpayers’ candidate, the one who stands up for limited government.

“I’m a strong believer in our Constitution and democracy,” said Lehman, who has a pocket Constitution from the Heritage Foundation. “I don’t like it when government gets involved in things it shouldn’t.”

Not one to sit still on the City Council, Lehman is no stranger to pulling items off the consent agenda — sometimes for minor details — and always speaks his mind.

His attention to issues outside of Shakopee often come into play — typically revolving around the economy — though his vexing on a national policy matter may sometimes seem out-of-line to others.

On the local level, Lehman’s belief about the role of government translates into matters as small as the watering of flowers downtown and movies at Huber Park.

“Those things are best left to the private sector and civic groups,” he said.

On a larger scale, he’s not comfortable with some ideas proposed for economic development. He’d like to see more

In between maintenance jobs on a recent weekday, Mike Luce had an old T-shirt on. He had an interview and photo schedu led with the Val ley News, so he threw on a sweatshirt.

“I am who I am,” he said.

And Michael Luce is OK with a lot of people.

A familiar face to anyone in need of assistance at the old Yarusso’s Hardware store on First Avenue or Ace Hardware today, Luce performed decently in the 2009 City Council election, racking up 873 votes.

“It was somewhat of an inspiration that enough people thought I could do the job,” he said.

Luce says he shares similar views as the two incumbents up for election this round — whom he considers the most conservative members of the council (although he considers himself even more conservative).

“The main reason I’m running is the conservative side of me says we need to be more conservative right now than the council has been,” he said.

“If they do lose, I hope it’s to me versus someone that is more liberal.”

Luce has a few issues with the way things have been r u n ni ng at Cit y H a l l a nd says he would move to fire the city’s park and recreation director.

If elected, he said he’d get feedback from line workers, not just managers, to help trim the city’s budget.

He wanted his photo taken at Memorial Park in recognition of those who died defending the Constitution. marketing of Shakopee, but believes the city’s consistently low tax rate and tax-abasement policy are enough financial enticement for business. “[The city] could build all this infrastructure and be padready for someone that never comes,” he said. “We need to take care of our existing taxpayers, not future people who aren’t even here.”

Although he’s been accused of stalling the County Road 101 reconstruction project, Lehman said any delay from him was because he brought in the Minnesota Institute of Justice over concern about an option that would have wiped out a lot of private property.

He’s been a lone wolf on criticism of the city’s collaboration with other communities on land use, transportation and economic development

He is also frustrated that the city belongs to “liberal” organizations like the League of M i n ne s ot a Cit ie s, a nd says he’s been unsuccessful t r ying to get Shakopee to balance this out by joining the Heritage Foundation (a conservative think-tank) or the Institute for Justice (a libertarian public-interest law fi rm).

Lehman, who owns an auto repair shop on First Avenue, is probably the city councilor most likely to fi nd himself in disagreement with city staff and the rest of the council.

My experience allows me to not only continue with current suggestions to lower taxes, prioritize and consolidate services and focus on helping the economic health of our taxpayers, but to do so immediately.

sewer) costs, and reduced utility cost because these cost will be picked up by the current businesses and residential taxpayers. If we are really concerned about jobs, what are we as a city doing to make sure the businesses we have stay? Are we offering these same incentives to current businesses?

Nope. I do support tax abatement for large employers that meet the wage and quantity requirements. I also support a joint effort with the chamber to itemize the assets Shakopee has to offer new businesses like direct road connections to the metro, local airport, railroad, entertainment venues, park and trail opportunities, river and lakes, and community events. If the issue is increased tax base, the amount of taxes generated from the new business compared to the cost of the assistance and length of the assistance must be known to decide if it offsets the city’s assistance cost, fiscal disparity losses, and ongoing expenses of services to the business.

Again, focusing on the impacts to current taxpayers.

What are the most pressing issues the city faces and what will be your priorities if elected?

The economy is in crisis.

The Feds almost defaulted and looks like they might again, the state shutdown, the county is raising property taxes $70 per average household and the city wishes to follow suit.

Unemployment is high, utilities, health insurance, and staple product prices are also going up. Property values are falling and foreclosures are everywhere. I believe we need to hold fi rm or lower taxes focusing on key core services and priorities. This includes our greatest core priority which should be our taxpayers.

How can Shakopee best encourage business development? The city is exploring economic development tools like gap financing. What types of incentives do you support?

First, I voted against using taxpayers’ dollars to buy property to give to developers at a loss to the taxpayers. The best weapon any city can have is to show potential new businesses a low-tax rate history. The city has a current business subsidy policy that requires the new jobs to pay a decent wage to qualify for city assistance. I know fi rsthand as a business owner the costs and headaches associated with government regulation and oversight. My first suggestion would be to stream line the reg u lator y processes, thus reducing the potential new business expenses. Secondly, we should recognize that large employers in the city offer jobs and could be eligible for our current business-subsidy policy including tax abatement. State law does not allow the city to require new businesses hire local residents even if we offer assistance. My concern is giving new businesses tax abatement, free or bought down by the taxpayers’ land, reduced regulation fees, gap fi nancing, reduced infrastructure (road/

Given the problems at some apartment complexes and the rise in renter-occupied houses, is it time for Shakopee to license landlords? If so, under what parameters?

I am not convinced we need another layer of government which also has a cost. The majority of the concerns seem to come from the larger units and some of these are state or federal government program units. I would consider some oversight of the larger units; however, current laws do give the leaser broad rights. The simple cost-effective fi x would be to en force existing federal, state, and local laws. The oversight of the larger units would be a multi-housing officer which we currently have.

T his person wou ld screen complaints to determine if the issue is a state/federal health violation, state fi re code violation or a local law concern.

This multi-housing person would also have the contacts and dialog with our state and federal partners on matters beyond local law enforcement.

Why are you running for Shakopee City Council?

I believe that the city is wasting tax dollars and I plan to expose the waste.

What are the most pressing issues the city faces and what will be your priorities if elected?

I believe that the country as a whole is in fi nancial problems. The city has to be aware of cuts from the state and the federal government. I believe that the city cannot continue to rely on funds that it has in the past. I believe that the city needs to fi nd continuing avenues to reduce costs (such as partnerships).

A knowledgeable handyman, Mike Luce has been helping residents for years at Shakopee hardware stores and providing maintenance for mom-and-pop apartment buildings in the area.

“In every aspect of my work, I’ve always been able to fi nd some way of cutting costs — fi nding a better, cheaper supplier. You just have to look hard enough,” Luce said.

Luce has questions about the top salaries at City Hall and has been doing his own research to determine what similar cities are paying.

One of the issues that got his dander up was the promotion of Jeff Tate from captain to police chief over a candidate Luce says grew up in Shakopee and had more experience.

“I feel that residency in the town — or some roots in the town — makes for a better police officer,” he explained.

He also didn’t like the process used for designing a couple recent neighborhood parks (his son lives near one). Luce previously sent a letter to the editor saying the city should terminate its parks director for telling council members

not to meet with residents. He said he’ll “push hard” for her termination if elected.

Luce said he’s not afraid to stand up for what is right.

“People that know me know I’m outspoken — I’m not going to sit in a corner and shut up if I see something wrong,” he said. “I don’t back away from a fight.”

Editor’s note Luce is referencing an email Parks and Recreation Director Jaime Polley sent City Council members during a park planning process. He has never seen the e-mail, which was provided to the Valley News. Polley previously told the Valley News she had asked councilors to d irect resident comments to her so their feedback could be included in revisions to the park plans, as a neighborhood had inadvertently been left off a mailing.

some apartment complexes and the rise in renter-occupied houses, is it time for Shakopee to license landlords? If so, under what parameters?

I have worked in apartment maintenance for 30-plus years.

I know that there are some bad landlords. The majority of problems come from bad tenants. I would not support an attempt to license landlords.

What happens if the city does license landlords and the city decides to revoke a landlord’s license? Does the city take over the duties of landlord or does the city evict all of the tenants? The city does not have the proper personnel to oversee a property. If the city evicts all of the tenants, who is going to pay the mortgage and the property taxes? Another empty property. The legal ramifications could be a fi nancial burden to the city.

ey every year for future buildings, such as a f ire station planned for Southbridge, hoping to borrow less when the time comes to build. The council is committed to do the same now for a future bubble of road overlays. Should the city continue to save annually, even if it means higher taxes now? Or is it better to bond for major projects so the tax burden is less now?

From some of the forecasts that I have read, bonding in the future may be totally different than it is at present.

Some forecasters predict that some cities are going to default on their bonds and that is going to change the way bonding is done in the future.

I believe that paying forward is better. Why pay the higher cost of bonding a much larger amount?

How can Shakopee best encourage business development? The city is exploring economic development tools like gap financing. What types of incentives do you support?

I would need to work with city staff to explore as many ideas as possible. I am a constant conservative and for that reason I would be extremely cautious in voting that the city chooses any questionable avenue.

In light of the failed recreation referendum, the Shakopee Community Center still has an undersized fitness area and not enough ice time. How should the city proceed to meet its recreational needs?

I believe that the city could start by terminating the Parks and Recreation manager for her e -mai ls to the counci l telling them not to meet with a group of concerned citizens about the construction of a new park. The city could then hire someone who might be more qualified for the job and might bring some insight into the question before us. The city supposedly has staff that is more highly educated than council is in their specific areas. They should be coming forward with proposals for the council to make decisions on.

The city has taken steps to better recognize historic homes and has discussed doing even more. Should Shakopee have a preservation ordinance that requires a certain level of maintenance and makes it more difficult to demolish historically significant properties?

I believe in preserving history. I do not believe that the city has any more right to tell a property owner with a historic building what they can do with their property than the city has the right to tell the general public what to do with their property. If the city or someone on an historical preservation committee wants to direct the proper use and or conservation of a particular property then I believe that the city or said person should purchase the property and then they can do whatever they wish to with it.

I would not in any manner support any such ordinance.

election2011 Meet the Shakopee City Council candidates Nine people will be seeking two open four-year terms on the Shakopee City Council on Nov. 8. The seats are now held by incumbents Matt Lehman and Pat Heitzman. Both are

seeking re-election. Eight of the nine candidates are profi led on these pages. The ninth candidate, Eric Brown, did not respond to repeated attempts to contact him for an interview.

Pat Heitzman

On rainy nights, Suresh Nair enjoys lying quietly in bed, listening to the frogs singing and grasshoppers chirping along the spillway in his backyard.

“It takes you to a different world,” Nair said. “It sounds like the rainforest.”

Open space is part of why Nair, a software engineer from a coastal regional of south India known as “God’s Own Country,” moved his family to Shakopee.

Twelve years ago, Nair was working in Bangalore (the information technology capital of India) for an American company when he was transferred to the United States. He moved state-to-state until he received a contract job at Target Corp. and decided to put down roots in Minnesota.

His family lived in a Bloomington apartment complex for a few years before following friends to Shakopee, purchasing a split-entry home on Meridian Court.

Nair now has three daughters — ages 4, 6 and 12 — who spend much of their summers playing at other homes on their cul-de-sac and wants to truly make Shakopee home.

By joining the Shakopee City Council, Nair hopes to become more involved and also bridge the gap between City Hall and the town’s growing ethnic communities.

If Pat Heitzman walked into a Kmart Distribution Center today, someone would recognize him.

Heitzman, who used to work at the warehouse in Shakopee, was pressed into duty as a food safety coordinator because he had a background in pest control.

He set up the food safety program in Shakopee and took it on the road to 13 distribution centers. He wrote the corporate manual. And yes, Heitzman — the kind of guy who only speaks when he has something to say at Shakopee City Council meetings — starred in the training video.

Heitzman, a fi rst-term city councilor, has had the fortune in life of falling into good things.

Just out of high school, Heit zma n was worki ng i n the printing business when he had a brief encounter with the owner of a pest-control business.

Two days later, an application was in his mailbox.

“The best thing I did was get into that,” said Heitzman, now a master technician for Accurate Pest Control. He loves the variety and problemsolving.

A Shakopee native, Heitzman has only lived out of the city seven years — long enough

Not only is this first time Suresh Nair, a new U.S. citizen, can run for office, it is also the first time he will be voting. Nair is pictured on his deck overlooking Canterbury Park.

“Nobody has done this before,” he said. “I’m getting a lot of support calls.”

He believes his candidacy will open the door for other immigrants who are sitting on the sidelines but want to get involved.

Low voter turnout, he believes, shows the majority of Shakopee residents aren’t participating in the “community building process.”

“We need to have planned growth and in order to get that we need to understand the community,” he said. “Right now there is a communication gap.

Someday has to break that.”

Nair is used to collaborating with people from all backgrounds. He grew up in Kerela — a religiously diverse state of India known for its history, culture and tourism.

He is active in the India Association of Minnesota, and as a past board member of the Minnesota Malayalee Association, organized cultural events and celebrations for its members, who share the same language and customs.

In his free time, Nair also contributes to an Indian newspaper, Malayalee Sangamam, published in Chicago.

Now Nair wants to give back to Shakopee.

The more residents the city can get to participate, the better off he thinks Shakopee will be.

“We have a lot of talented people,” he said.

Nair believes he help bring them into the fold.

“That’s what I’m offering the city,” he said.

How can Shakopee best encourage business development? The city is exploring economic development tools like gap financing. What types of incentives do you support?

We need to encourage more business opportunities in Shakopee. I would support new business opportunities if that makes more jobs in Shakopee.

Why are you running for Shakopee City Council?

I would like to get involved with our community and help them to resolve their issues as much as I can. As you know, we have a great growing community in Shakopee with people from different parts of the world. I like the cultural diversity and our community should benefit from that. Let us all work together for a better community.

Given the problems at some apartment complexes and the rise in renter-occupied houses, is it time for Shakopee to license landlords? If so, under what parameters?

I think it is a good idea to license landlords. The city should have details of landlords and tenants and needs to control that by licensing them properly. This could be an additional revenue source of the city too.

What are the most pressing issues the city faces and what will be your priorities if elected?

Create more job opportunities and support local business. Encourage more public transportation in our city as well as to the neighboring city

fitness area and not enough ice time. How should the city proceed to meet its recreational needs?

The city should allocate the ice time to the city’s needs fi rst before selling anytime to outside users. A second sheet of ice in the current economy just is not practical at this time unless a partnership in funding was found. While it would be nice to have a larger fitness area, I would support cutting less-used programming to make space for a higher-used programs.

Again, in the current climate, we need to hold steady, look for cost savings and prioritize services. Once the economy turns around and the taxpayers see we have controlled tax

Or is it better to bond for major projects so the tax burden is less now?

The current fire bond issue on our property tax statements is for the Vierling Drive headquarters. The cost of that building was much higher than the anticipated satellite station planned for Southbridge. Since the current fi re building debt payments are done in 2015, we

Or is it better to bond for major projects so the tax burden is less now?

I think we can continue with the plan currently we have.

Since we are a growing community, the development plans are important. Based on the population, we may need more infrastructure facilities.

The city has taken steps to better recognize historic homes and has discussed doing even more. Should Shakopee have a preservation ordinance that requires a certain level of maintenance and makes it more difficult to demolish historically significant properties?

It would be great if we could preserve historic buildings for future generations and people could visit and get more information about our history.

could build the Southbridge station in 2014-2015, renew that bond debt, and because the costs are lower for a satellite station, we would see a reduction on our property tax statements using bonds. The fi re chief told me he would support this idea. I also disagree in charging current taxpayers today for a building 30 years from now that they may never see nor use. Obviously we need to maintain the roads, but we need to balance the amount of street miles per year that get overlaid with the tax impacts on our taxpayers.

The city has bonded major projects for decades and it has aided the city’s low-debt-to-revenue ratio, increased credit rating, and growing reserves. Since a set-aside building fund was created, the city was sued by the Builders Association for over-charging in permit fees

Why are you running for Shakopee City Council?

There are plenty of issues that still need to be taken care of that I want to be part of the conversations.

What are the most pressing issues the city faces and what will be your priorities if elected?

and putting the money in the building fund via transfers.

The settlement required the city to undertake an expensive cost analysis and set aside millions for court-ordered uses.

As for the set-aside accounts in general, the sewer fund currently has $14 million and $ 8 million in liabilities, the storm-water fund has $16 million with $9 million in liabilities (2011 city budget document rounded). Government in general takes more than it needs.

Bonding helps keep them honest because you’re bonding the actual project cost. Bonding costs are low and this option helps the taxpayers in a very difficult economy. If memory serves me correct, $2 million of the sewer fund paid for part of Huber Park. I voted against it. $1-to-2 million of the storm fund could overlay roads, it’s all the

No town busybody, Heitzman never imagined he’d run for public office.

That changed four years ago when he wrote a letter to the editor and someone left an anonymous message on his answering machine telling him to “shut up or put up.”

He’s glad he put up.

He enjoys the community involvement of being a council member and helping residents get issues resolved.

“I get calls all the time — it’s kind of fun,” he said.

In the last four years, Heitzman has also learned “a few more things that totally frustrate” him — primarily, the Metropolitan Council and re-

distribution of Shakopee’s industrial taxes to other cities.

If re-elected, he’d like to help expose those issues, and he also wants to see the city doing more to attract businesses.

He said he’s a city councilor who listens and stands up for constituent concerns — whether it be a driveway issue with a road project or plans for a proposed park.

“I went out there and listened to them, stuck to my guns and helped negotiate a deal,” Heitzman said of a recent park plan.

He considers himself an easygoing person who can get along with all types.

“I like to say I’m a member of the common-sense party, but somebody already stole that phrase,” he said.

types of incentives do you support?

The EDA [Economic Development Authority] has brought forth several different types of tools. We should use everything that is available. A strong commercial and industrial base will help keep residential taxes from rising.

Shakopee sets aside money every year for future buildings, such as a f ire station planned for Southbridge, hoping to borrow less when the time comes to build. The council is committed to do the same now for a future bubble of road overlays. Should the city continue to save annually, even if it means higher taxes now? Or is it better to bond for major projects so the tax burden is less now?

The amount of “building rent” is being reduced by 20 percent in the 2012 budget.

The savings to each department can be transferred into the pavement-preservation program without raising taxes.

The building rent program is beneficial. The money should be used to maintain the buildings. Major expenses can be paid out of the fund without any effect on the general budget.

Given the problems at some apartment complexes and the rise in renter-occupied houses, is it time for Shakopee to license landlords? If so, under what parameters?

Yes, any building that has four or more units should be required to be licensed. All buildings would have to perform background checks on all potential tenants. The buildings should also be required to join the Police Department’s multi-housing crime prevention program.

In light of the failed recreation referendum, the Shakopee Community Center still has an undersized fitness area and not enough ice time. How should the city proceed to meet its recreational needs?

T he referendu m shou ld have been three separate questions : t he second sheet of ice, exercise room and the senior center. That way some of the issues may have been approved. At no point should the city spend the money for the improvements without the voters’ consent.

taxpayers’ money, and I argue they have been overcharged.

The city has taken steps to better recognize historic homes and has discussed doing even more. Should Shakopee have a preservation ordinance that requires a certain level of maintenance and makes it more difficult to demolish historically significant properties?

No. This is clearly government duplication because the federal government offers the National Historic Register program directly to property owners interested. A non-voluntary, mandated local preservation ordinance would be another layer of government that comes with a cost and the larger costs would be in the court system defending the constitutionality of such a mandated program.

The city has taken steps to better recognize historic homes and has discussed doing even more. Should Shakopee have a preservation ordinance that requires a certain level of maintenance and makes it more difficult to demolish historically significant properties?

The city shouldn’t be telling citizens how they have to preserve and maintain their homes to certain specifications by a historical commission.

Historic buildings should be preserved whenever possible.

I am a strong supporter of property-owner rights. I do support the current volunteer historical housing program where property owners decide if they wish to participate. I personally like historical things and history as displayed in my automotive shop ; however, if someone wanted to build a new building in place of an old building, that’s their decision and investment to make, not government’s. The old historic bridge downtown was refurbished into a trail crossing at a cost in the neighborhood of $5 million. A new trail bridge would have cost around $1.5 million. Obviously there is additional cost to restore and maintain historic items where in this case, the difference in MnDOT funding cost may have been used toward making 101 less prone to flooding.

Jay Whiting has run for City Council twice before — he was recruited as a write-in candidate four years ago and fi led along with seven others in 2009, garnering nearly 20 percent of the vote.

The last election he chalks up to more of a marketing campaign. This year, he’s determined to not be “outhustled.”

The first to announce his candidacy, W hiting began door-knocking before the fi ling period even closed.

“The only way to get elected is going out and talking to people, where they can see I’m the kind of person they can talk to,” he said. “If they have an issue and I don’t know the answer, I will find the answer. I’m not afraid to ask questions.”

Whiting is not afraid of work or talking to people either.

An Eden Prairie High School graduate who followed his dad into the printing business (he remembers doing bindery work in his dad’s print shop when he was 13 years old), Whiting moved to Shakopee in the early 1990s. He’s been finding ways to get involved ever since.

Whiting developed a love of local history while researching his circa 1895 home at the Scott County Historical Society. He soon became one of its first

Three years ago, Mark Reimler rode a helicopter thousands of feet up to a remote mountain in the Canadian Rockies. It dropped him and his skis off at a lodge with no Internet or TV. “I told my wife Lori, before I’m 50, I have to do this,” he said.

Reimler has never been at loss for action — he went into overtime finishing college because he took two years off to serve in the military and another couple years “looking around.”

In the early 1980s, Reimler was stationed with the infantry in Germany near the Berlin Wall. “It was a really good experience for a young kid,” he said. “It made me value the lifestyle we have in the U.S.” He was a “ski bum” for a year. At the end of one summer, Reimler drove his motorcycle out to Winter Park and got a job cleaning condominiums.

He shacked up with three other guys in a cheap trailer, worked second shift and skied all day.

“That was probably the time of my life,” he said.

In Germany, Reimler spent a lot of time in helicopters and realized he wanted to be a pilot.

He decided to return to college and apply for flight school.

He helped found the Shakopee Heritage Society and later joined the Shakopee Derby Days Committee.

A longtime volunteer for Loaves and Fishes, Whiting began coordinating volunteer groups every fifth Tuesday when the non-profit opened a soup kitchen at St. Mark’s Catholic Church.

Whiting was also part the city’s historical advisory committee that proposed a preservation ordinance for significant properties.

However, he said he’s got no specific agenda items if elected, just a belief “that we can do so much better.”

“We are a town of 37,000

people. I’m a history guy, I love the small-town feel, but we have to start acting like the city we’ve become,” Whiting said. “We’re stuck in the patterns from 20 years ago. We need fresh energy.”

He wants more attention paid to planning, economic development and unifying the various factions of the city.

City councilors should also value the work of advisory committees more, he said — starting with showing up at the appreciation event for those volunteers. He believes there’s too much micromanaging of these panels.

“You’ve go to respect their opinion because they are doing the legwork for you,” he said. “I think we’ll gain a lot by giving them some rein.”

What are the most pressing issues the city faces and what will be your priorities if elected?

Although budget issues are always a priority, I believe economic development should be the city’s main priority. We need to create opportunities for small businesses to want to locate in Shakopee. We should create incentives to help fill the empty retail and commercial spaces. We also need to plan for the future industrial and commercial space needs and begin laying the groundwork for that to happen. Without even mentioning the jobs that could be available, by increasing our industrial and commercial base, we will diversify our tax base and help to take the tax burden off the homeowners.

to rent. Other aspects of these ordinances can include health, safety and even pest-control inspections. These ordinances are documented as reducing crime and police calls. I believe Shakopee should enact some form of this ordinance on rental properties housing more than four rental units.

Why are you running for Shakopee City Council?

I feel I have to run. The citizens of Shakopee feel unrepresented at the City Council. It’s time to elect a City Council member who will listen to the citizens of our city. Shakopee’s population has grown to nearly 37,000 people; it’s time to start acting like the city we’ve become. I have a passion for helping people, and I feel I can

How can Shakopee best encourage business development? The city is exploring economic development tools like gap financing. What types of incentives do you support?

I am not opposed to tax increment fi nancing (TIF), but only for distressed properties or areas that are previously undeveloped. Gap financing may be a tool that would help.

I believe that improving our infrastructure and making businesses accessible is also crucial. I don’t think a person should have to drive around the block in order to access an establishment. Planning for the future needs and not just for the present is a main focus of my campaign. I also support an independent EDA [Economic Development Authority]. The City Council does not need to micromanage this function of the city. We need to better utilize our volunteer commissions and value their input. The council can overrule as necessary, but should not undermine their work.

Given the problems at some apartment complexes and the rise in renter-occupied houses, is it time for Shakopee to license landlords? If so, under what parameters?

After talking with Police Chief Tate about this issue, I am convinced that a rental license ordinance is a good idea. These types of ordinances can be tailored to fit our city’s needs. In some cases tenants are required to go through criminal background checks prior to being allowed

In light of the failed recreat ion referendum, the Shakopee Community Center still has an undersized fitness area and not enough ice time. How should the city proceed to meet its recreational needs?

I have had a lot of conversations regarding this issue as I have been campaigning this summer. Under state law public investments in recreation require a voter referendum.

I fully support an expanded Community Center. I believe a “fully functioning” facility will attract new residents and become self-sufficient. By having the proper space and good quality equipment, along with an indoor swimming pool, a senior center, possibly a banquet facility, the Community Center could become self-sufficient.

Unfortunately the building in its current state is set up to fail. The voters, however, have spoken on this issue several times. Unfortunately, I think our only alternative at this point is to look for a private investor to partner with. The various hockey and skating clubs would need to lease ice time from such a group.

Shakopee sets aside money every year for future buildings, such as a f ire station planned for Southbridge, hoping to borrow less when the time comes to build. The council is committed to do the same now for a future bubble of road overlays. Should the city continue to save annually, even if it means higher taxes now? Or is it better to bond for major projects so the tax burden is less now?

With current interest rates being so low, now is the time to bond for projects. Shakopee is in a very good position fi nancially and that fact makes it less of a burden to the taxpayers that are not directly affected by the project. I also think we need to proceed with building the new Southbridge fi re station sooner, rather than later. The city has the money.

There are assets in that area that could be at risk. As for

Mark Reimler and his wife recently returned from a motorcycle trip across Norway. He restored this 1978 BMW R80/7 and other bikes in his garage. brothers also served in the military, would fly Cobra helicopters in the U.S. Army Reserves for 10 years.

Once he fi nished his mathematics degree, Reimler built a good career in corporate Minnesota. He owned a business selling electronic fi xtures to Best Buy before being hired by the electronics giant and later Target (and then Best Buy again). His last corporate gig was in business development — partnering with companies like Google and Northwest Airlines.

By 2002, Reimler had grown bored with corporate life and decided to go into real estate.

“It’s always different. I get to meet a lot of people,” he said. “It’s customer service —

treating people right and doing the right thing when nobody looking.”

Reimler, who serves on the city’s transit commission, is now up for a new challenge.

“I want to live in a vibrant, growing city. I think I’m smart and have good ideas about where we should be going,” he said.

He said he’s got no ax to grind (“my dad always told me, ‘Be wary of the candidate with a cause’ ”), but wants be at the steering wheel, helping set Shakopee in the right direction.

“A city is like a business — if you’re not growing, you’re dying. People aren’t going to move here just because,” he said.

How can Shakopee best encourage business development? The city is exploring economic development tools like gap financing. What types of incentives do you support?

To complete with other cities and get businesses to locate to Shakopee will take more than tax credits. We have to make sure the city is a desirable place to live so Shakopee can offer a motivated, educated work force. We also have to make sure Shakopee has an advantageous business climate.

We can’t have one without the other.

vides a public good by making our city a desirable place to live and work which, in turn, brings new residents and businesses to our city. But, it is imperative that the city leadership communicates to the people what the importance of a project is to the city at large.

Otherwise, the people just see another hole being fi lled with tax dollars.

Why are you running for Shakopee City Council?

After living in Shakopee for 10 years, I’m beginning to know and understand the city and people. My background in the military, business and real estate will allow me to provide a unique perspective to help make Shakopee even better.

I want to assist in setting the direction Shakopee will go in the future and the best way to do that is on the City Council. I respect the work the City Council has done to date, and I feel there is always room for new perspective and ideas. I will be honored to be elected and will work diligently to make Shakopee even better than it is today.

What are the most pressing issues the city faces and what will be your priorities if elected?

My priorities are: 1) Making Shakopee a more desirable place to live; and 2) Bringing

Given the problems at some apartment complexes and the rise in renter-occupied houses, is it time for Shakopee to license landlords? If so, under what parameters?

I do think it’s time to look closely at some form of guidance for landlords. As a Realtor, I see up-close the effects that problem rental properties can have on our community.

The city has a good start with the Crime Free Multi-Housing initiative and that should be the basis to build from. I would not want this applied to homeowners looking for roommates in an owner-occupied home, but we should look at landlords renting one or more properties without living in that property.

I know there are some who think any regulation of rentals will make investors avoid Shakopee, but the city of St. Louis Park probably has one of the most restrictive rental climates in the state and that city has plenty of investors willing to purchase properties for rental. I do not think Shakopee needs to go as far as St. Louis Park, but we have room for improvement in the area of rentals.

In light of the failed recreation referendum, the Shakopee Community Center still has an undersized fitness area and not enough ice time. How should the city proceed to meet its recreational needs?

I do believe that one of the benefits Shakopee needs to offer its citizens is recreational opportunities. Recreation pro-

The council is committed to do the same now for a future bubble of road overlays. Should the city continue to save annually, even if it means higher taxes now? Or is it better to bond for major projects so the tax burden is less now?

I do think Shakopee should have a building fund. The ability for Shakopee to pay for a building with cash saves the city hundreds of thousands of dollars in interest payments that would be spent if we borrowed the money. I also think that allowing Shakopee to accumulate a fund valued in the millions is a great responsibility for the council and mayor, and with it should come absolute transparency on how it is used. The building fund should not be used as a funding source for projects it was not intended nor should it be used as a “bank” that can be borrowed from.

The city has taken steps to better recognize historic homes and has discussed doing even more. Should Shakopee have a preservation ordinance that requires a certain level of maintenance and makes it more difficult to demolish historically significant properties?

Everyone enjoys the beauty of Shakopee’s history, but the city should have a limited role in the preservation of historic buildings. If city leaders feel a building is significant to the city, they shou ld of fer offsets in that building’s property taxes to make it easier to maintain it as a historic building. I would not want to see the city override homeowner rights for the sake of preservation.

Ever since she was little, Amy Zellmer has been taking pictures.

“My parents literally would ration my rolls of fi lm,” recalls Zellmer, who grew up in Hastings.

Zellmer studied photojournalism at Winona State University and spent time as a newspaper reporter and photographer in Thief River Falls before moving to Shakopee in 2002.

She worked at Chili’s in Eagan and as a human resources assistant while she built up her wedding photography business. “It took a big leap of faith,” she remembers. “I set a goal if I could book 10 weddings

by January, then I could quit my full-time job.”

She liked the downtown feel of Shakopee, which prompted her to open up a studio on First Avenue in 2003 and move into her current location in 2005.

What drew Zellmer to Shakopee is also part of the reason she’s running for City Council.

“I would like to see our downtown become more of a destination,” she said. “I would like to be a voice for the downtown and other [business] areas.”

Zellmer has already made her mark downtown.

In February 2007, she held a Girls Night Out for local women and 19 businesses at her

Premm Badhwa drives an F-150 pickup truck, served more than 20 years in the military and built a house next to his parents’ in Shakopee after retiring from the U.S. Navy.

He may have a foreig nsounding name, but Badhwa is about as American as they come.

The descendant of East Indians, Badhwa grew up in Guyana, South America speaking English, with Hindu customs.

He was about 10 when his father Bridge — who died unexpectedly last month — brought the family to Minnesota in January 1979 in search of a better life.

Since his family lived on the British side of Guyana, the biggest adjustment coming to Minnesota was the weather.

“I still don’t like the cold,” Badhwa said.

A graduate of St. Louis Park High School, Badhwa joined the Navy a fter he found a couple months of tech school “too boring.”

Initially stationed out of Virginia as an engineer, Badhwa worked on Navy carriers in Europe and along the East Coast.

After getting married, he did recruiting in Minneapolis and then a last tour in Hawaii.

Besides the travel, Badhwa enjoyed the camaraderie and teamwork of military life.

Her success encouraged the Shakopee Downtown Partnership to start Ladies Night Out throughout all downtown, which has become an annual event.

“I was almost ready to do it on my own because I could see the demand,” Zellmer said.

She later became president of the Downtown Business Partnership, which recently folded into the Shakopee Chamber of Commerce.

Zellmer believes Shakopee now needs a shop local campaign to support the businesses that back the community with their taxes and donations.

Council. I am the owner of two businesses. Custom Creations Photography is a boutique photography studio in downtown Shakopee and My Photo Biz Coach is a virtual coaching company in which I inspire other photographers to make more money in their businesses. I am passionate, opinionated, witty, and sometimes a little wild and crazy! I enjoy life and want to live it to the fullest! I believe I am a strong leader with great communication skills. I love working with other business-minded and creative individuals and am looking forward to the opportunity to serve Shakopee.

What are the most pressing issues the city faces and what will be your priorities if elected?

My priority if elected will be to bring in more businesses to the community and help promote “shop local.” I believe it is important to support the businesses of the community that you live in, and that businesses thrive among other businesses.

Zellmer, a member of Shakopee’s Community Emergency Response Team, has served on the board of three different photography professional associations and also coaches beginning photographers.

She enjoys traveling internationally and flying to other American cities on weekends to shoot destination weddings.

She also plays competitive volleyball.

“I’m not home a lot,” he said.

No hot topic drew Zellmer to the council race. She said she just wants to get more involved her community.

Thank you for asking this question. As a local historian the short answer is yes. I was the chair of the Historic Preservation Advisory Commission (HPAC) who put this proposal before the council. In fact I was instrumental in having the HPAC implemented at the city. As a historian, when I see our historic buildings disappearing, I am concerned. The ordinance proposal, however, was to protect those valuable assets for the city. Even if a building is on the National Register of Historic Places, a property owner can demolish it unless there is a historic preservation ordinance that

meets the requirements of the state in place to protect it. Such ordinances are structured to require the property be maintained in accordance with the building’s original design, such as no vinyl siding over your “Shakopee” brick building. If a building is designated as a historic site and is maintained properly, property values increase, and so does the “sense of place” in the community.

After the council reviewed the proposal, no suggestions were made by any council member to change any of it. However the ordinance proposal was never brought back up on Mayor Schmitt’s agenda.

A volunteer for Adopt-A-Highway, Premma Badhwa has picked up your trash along County Road 42 for five years.

Now he wants to serve in another way.

“Sometimes you depend on those people for your life,” he said.

In 2005, he retired as a petty officer and went to work as a measurement technician for an oil company in Cottage Grove. Badhwa tests crude oil headed from Canada to the refi nery in Hastings.

Familiar with the area from his recruiting days and liking the school system, Badhwa and his wife decide to raise their children (now 9, 5 and 2) in Shakopee. They built next to his parents so they could help look after them.

H av i n g a lways enjoye d community work (the American Red Cross during high school and Feed My Starving Children through work), Badhwa wanted to become

involved in Shakopee.

In 2006, he and his family adopted a stretch of highway a few miles from home and clean the ditches twice per year.

Badhwa thought it would be best to get experience on an advisory board before running for local office. He’s on his second two-year term with the city’s transit commission.

“It’s one step at a time,” he said.

He doesn’t have a platform in his race for City Council, just a desire to understand the day-to-day operations of the city more and help make Shakopee an even better place to live.

Others might say he’s “so simple and basic,” Badhwa said, but he’s the reliable type of guy. Give him a task, and he’ll “get his stuff done.”

BUSINESS NEWS

PETS OF THE WEEK

Jo-Ann Fabrics building new store Mall looks for replacement, but it won’t be an Aldi The Shakopee Town Square is losing an anchor retailer — and no, Aldi isn’t planning to take its place.

Jo -Ann Fabrics recently st a r te d c on st r uc tion of a 17,040 -square-foot building next to Lowe’s Home Improvement store in the Dean Lakes development. The city issued a building permit Oct. 13.

The fabric store is expected to move out of the mall in early to middle 2012, said Mike

Myhre, property manager for the mall’s owner, the Minnesota School of Business.

Many groups have toured the space. “We hope to get a large user in there as soon as we can,” Myhre said.

A for mer g rocer y store, some think the spot would be perfect for an Aldi, the discount grocery chain based in Germany. In fact, rumors have floated around Shakopee for months that the discount

grocer is interested in the mall. Even Myrhe has heard them.

Not true, says A ldi’s re gional real estate director Ryan Stemmons (the second time he’s been asked by the Valley News), although Aldi has identified Shakopee as a place for a future store.

Aldi has looked at several locations in Shakopee, Stemmons said, but he only knows of the mall because he has

taken his daughter to Jumps and Downs there.

Aldi likely would locate in a major retail area, such as near Walmart or Target, he explained. No site or date has been set for a store, however.

It has to be the right fit and timing, Stemmons said, noting that Aldi has a lot of service holes to fi ll.

“We’ll get there eventually,” he said.

Dem-Con recognized for shingle recycling Dem-Con Cos., a three-generation owned family business located in Louisville Township, was recently recognized for expanding the use of shingle recycling in Minnesota.

It received an award, “From Roofs to Roads: A Successful Partnership,” during a ceremony at the state fair.

A coalition of public, private and nonprofit partners (Solid Waste Management Coordinating Board, Dem-Con Companies, Minnesota Asphalt Pavement Association and Commercial Asphalt Company) worked for many years to research, test and evaluate the use of tear-off shingles (used shingles from residential homes) in asphalt pavement. Prior to this project, the Minnesota Department of Transportation specifications only allowed for manufactured shingle scrap to be used in roads paved with asphalt.

In 2010, a MnDOT approved specification was implemented allowing for residential roof shingle recycling in road as-

Ridge, including leaking ceilings, mold and inoperable appliances. Hallway lights in one unit had electrical shorting, as noted by police.

Lindahl was cited three times last year by the city of Shakopee for conditions here, including bedbug and cockroach infestations, not plowing the parking lot and significant mold in an occupied unit. The citations were all dismissed — on the condition Lindhahl complete the bug treatment plan for the complex.

A judge ruled against one renter, who attempted to put money into escrow until her apartment was fi xed.

Neighbors are also upset with Hunters Ridge.

The complex has also been the site of gang violence, with a fatal stabbing and drive-by shooting in recent years.

This confident tuxedo cat is about 3 years old, likes calm kids over age 5 and some cats.

He’s active and likes to play with anything that moves. Sometimes Chumley jumps onto your lap and stays while you pet him. He door-greets, follows you, and tells you when you are late for dinner.

So, the kids have been begging for a dog and you want one house-trained and well mannered; enter … Maxwell. This 4-year-old is wonderful with preschoolers, is passive with dogs, but hasn’t met cats. Maxwell likes to sleep on your bed, be by you when you sit, and follow you everywhere.

Dem Con Companies, which recovers other scrap materials at its facility, processes about 10,000 tons of scrap annually from shingle manufacturers. It also accepts tear-off shingles (shingles that were replaced by new shingles) from residential houses

Many families moved out of the complex following the stabbing.

Unlike Burnsville, the city of Shakopee does not license landlords. The idea has been proposed by the Police Department to combat problematic apartment complexes and was discussed by the City Council as far back as 2008, but never adopted.

Lindahl is forbidden from renting out any vacant units in Burnsville.

If the violations are not fixed by December, her license will be revoked, resulting in the eviction of more than 100 tenants, according to the Pioneer Press.

Lindahl also owns property in Wayzata and Mankato, which have been plagued by complaints as well.

FINE ARTS HIGHLIGHTS

Shakopee landlord faces sanctions in Burnsville Delores Lindahl, the owner of Hunters Ridge Apartments in Shakopee, has had her landlord license suspended in Burnsville due to massive violations.

Country Village Apartments, which is close to the Savage border, was the subject of a seven-month investigation by the city of Burnsville, uncovering hundreds of violations, including massive mold problems, bedbugs, cock roaches and cei lings sagging from water damage.

A toad was found living in one vacant unit.

City workers took more than 900 photos of the complex and logged 550 hours of investigation, according to the Pioneer Press and Star Tribune.

INTERCHANGE continued from page 1

Road 42 underneath might have short delays.

Minor grading and curb work is left, and some ramps will be bumpy until the fi nal wear-course is laid. Lighting is still to be finished. A storm-water pond also must be landscaped.

Felt asks motorists to drive slowly under the bridge because of work still being done.

Although common in the East Coast, this is only the second known three-legged interchange — also called a partial or f lyover interchange — in the Midwest. A similar one is under construction at County Roads 13 and 101 in Savage.

Felt said the design is intended to improve the safety of T-shaped intersections.

“We want to eliminate the points where people have the tendency to make mistakes and judgments,” he said. “This one is very unique in the way it’s laid out.”

Because County Road 42 was at the bottom of two hills, motorists might notice the overpass looks like it belongs there, Felt said.

“A lot of interchanges are imposing. This one lays lightly on the land,” he said. “It seems to be working quite smoothly.”

Straight teeth… no braces!

One of the disagreements of the night was whether Shakopee has enough police officers.

“Gang activity is happening.

People are scared. A lady near my house, her house was tagged three times in two months,” said Tabke. “Ten cops short is not acceptable.”

Schmitt, pointing to another assessment that shows the city five officers short, said Shakopee has a larger police force per capita than its neighbors.

“We’re kind of in the middle of the road right now. We’re very comfortable with it,” he said.

The city has a gang task force within its Police Department and is part of regional drug task force and multi-city SWAT team, added Schmitt.

“We know who the gangs are. We can identify the gangs,” he said.

Tabke responded that citizens are “not comfortable” with what’s going on and the city has the added responsibility of policing entertainment destinations.

Schmitt told the Valley News a fter ward the attention to gangs is probably being blown out of proportion. He doesn’t understand why people get so upset. “Gangs are a fact of life in this area,” he said.

In an e-mail to supporters, Tabke noted the police chief has asked for additional officers every year since 2006; the council narrowly approved adding one this year. He believes the city could hire more cops without raising taxes.

“Under Schmitt’s leadership, the city has stockpiled tax money, holding 50 percent in reserves. The state says we should be 30 to 35 percent,” Tabke wrote. “If we are paying the taxes, I believe we should receive services for those dollars and the city should not be holding your and my money hostage.”

Valley News fact-check: The Police Department has no gang task force, according to police Capt. Chris Dellwo, although a team of undercover officers was deployed in the summer of 2010 to track gang members. Tattoos are checked at the county jail to match of-

fenders with graffiti.

Graffiti is up around town, but the city is not seeing correlated gang activity, Dellwo said. He hasn’t seen a repeat of 2010’s gang violence.

EMPLOYEE RELATIONS Asked how the council can make its relationship with city staff more effective, Schmitt said elected officials already work a lot with city staff.

“We have good relations,” he said.

Having ta l ked to nearly every department head, Tabke said he disagrees.

“There’s a significant issue with not getting leadership and direction from the City Council,” he said. “The City Council sends a lot of mixed messages and micromanages. [The council needs to focus on goals], not get in the weeds.”

TRIBAL RELATIONS “Give me a minute to think about how to package this …”

Schmitt said when asked about relations with the Shakopee Mdewakanton Dakota Community.

“The relationship has been rather tentative for the history of the reservation. … A lot of things were done out there as they worked to survive — like strip cable off telephone lines, they burned tires, they took our waste in storms,” said Schmitt, referring to business enterprises of decades past.

“There is no real way to package this one mayor — we have a horrible relationship with the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community,” responded Tabke. “We can’t look back and say what was.

We have to look to the future.

We are going to be next to each other for the rest of time.”

“It’s not a totally strained r e l at i o n s h i p ,” r e s p o n d e d Schmitt, noting the tribe’s $1 million matching grant for the St. Gertrude Health and Rehabilitation Center and donation of defibrillators to all squad cars.

DOWNTOWN How can Shakopee get more tourists and newer residents downtown?

D evelopi n g dow ntow n has always been a challenge with inadequate spacing, said Schmitt.

“To be per fectly honest, when kids from Southbridge go to the junior high and senior high that is when they fi rst find out that downtown Shakopee

exists because most work and are used to doing their shopping across the river,” he said.

Residents south of Highway 169 want more choices for meals and entertainment — and they want to do that in downtown Shakopee, Tabke said.

“We need to do a better job of con necti ng wit h [t hem] through technology and social media,” he said.

In regard to tourists, the city’s primary marketing tool is the $180,000 a year in lodging tax spent on advertising all over the Midwest, Schmitt said.

That doesn’t get tourists downtown, responded Tabke, who said the city missed the boat with the reconstruction of County Road 101.

“What could we have done to get people to go from an entertainment district that is thriving to having fun downtown? …

We need a vision to get to that point.” said Tabke, whose longterm vision for Shakopee is to “be the entertainment capital of the Midwest.”

COMMUNITY CENTER Both candidates support expanding the Community Center.

Schmitt said a referendum would be needed to bond for improvements. “It’s difficult right now to justify that in terms of the economy,” he said.

Tabke, who noted that the city could have used capital savings to improve the center, said the city needs to put together a long-term plan for fully developing the Community Center. “But it takes leadership to get those things done,” he said.

After the debate, he clarified that since building funds were used for the new fi re station, options for improvement could include revenue-backed bonds, corporate sponsorships or saving for that goal.

DEVELOPMENT-READY? The candidates debated the lack of a city economic developer and whether Shakopee has adequate land for companies.

“We are not in the place where we need to be right now as a growth leader in the metro,” Tabke said. “We don’t have the in frastructure to handle big businesses coming here.”

Only one large section south of Valley View Road, zoned agricultural, isn’t ready, countered Schmitt, noting that the city’s main roads contain the necessary sewer for extension.

“All utilities are at their boundaries,” he said of commercial property.

Tabke was referencing a map produced by a local economic development work group.

The map shows 25 parcels in Shakopee considered class II, meaning they require additional work to be developed.

According to Shakopee Community Development Director Michael Leek, a countywide evaluation is under way to determine whether investments should be made to make certain land “pad-ready.”

A business advisory committee put together by the city recommended Shakopee consider extending infrastructure, particularly along County Road 101.

Schmitt said after the debate that “70 percent” of the city industrial land is “shovelready.”

During the debate, Tabke said Shakopee needs clear goals to reduce vacant industrial space and “a plan for retail, bringing in restaurants and new places for people that come to Shakopee to utilize.”

“We serve a retail population of 150,000 — we have a major retail presence on this side of the river,” said Schmitt.

The city has worked hard to put in highways and roads to attract businesses, said Schmitt, and offers a “great toolbox” to interested businesses. “You’re going to see announcements in the near future.”

Tabke said the city should have someone speci f ica l ly tasked with economic development. He noted the Chamber of Commerce had to push for the reinstatement of the Economic Development Advisory Committee.

“We need to entrust those business leaders with advising the council,” he said.

Fol lowi ng t he debate, Schmitt explained the city previously disbanded the EDAC (now represented by the City Council) when it did away with its economic development director (a budgetary move). “We were not getting any production out of it,” he said.

Shakopee’s community development director and mayor now handle inquiries, Schmitt said, and the city has a contractor at its disposal. The county has assigned a part-time administrator to take on economic development responsibilities for the whole county.

“We’re working it, just paying for it in a different way,” Schmitt said.

“Spirit of the Saints” has been selected as the theme for the Saints Healthcare Foundation’s Gala to be held on Saturday, Nov. 12 at the new Clubhouse at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska.

All proceeds will benefit the foundation’s cancer care fund to add biopsy technology and program support to expand cancer prevention education, early screening, and comprehensive patient support services to ease the burden of illness for the one

in two people in the local community who will get a cancer diagnosis in their lifetime.

The evening of dining and dancing begins at 5:30 p.m. with a reception of complimentary hors d’oeuvres, followed by an elegant dinner, live and silent auctions, dancing to the sounds of The Sevilles, and a special presentation of the Physician Touchstone Award.

The gala will be emceed by Ken Barlow, meteorologist on KSTP-Channel 5.

Last year’s event was

considered a big success with more than 350 guests, including longtime volunteers and donors, members of the medical community and other community leaders who share a commitment to supporting St. Francis and St. Gertrude’s. Through generous guests, sponsors and donors, the sold-out gala raised more than $127,000 to support the foundation’s Cancer Care Fund.

The Saints Healthcare Foundation serves the St. Francis Regional Medical Center and St. Gertrude’s

Health and Rehabilitation Center. The two facilities are currently joined by physical space and now have merged their foundations.

Individual gala tickets are $150 per person with a reservation deadline of Nov. 4. Table and other sponsorships are available from $1,800 to $20,000.

Final burst of color and then the leaves – like our daylight – fade M

ost autumn leaves have either faded or fallen.

Minnesota tourism officials, in fact, issued their final fall-color report on Oct. 20.

But we still have the memories, thanks in part to readers who responded to this newspaper’s call for outstanding fall foliage photos.

As you can see, the landscape’s peak of color was short, but brilliant. As that American romantic poet and journalist William Cullen Bryant put it: “Autumn, the year’s last, loveliest smile.”

We thank readers for all of the contributions we received. And to those viewing these images of fall’s last great burst of color we say, “Enjoy!”

SHAKOPEE FOOTBALL

Rally falls short Two-point conversion stopped with 17 seconds left as Sabers upset by Chanhassen Storm

BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

The first time Shakopee and Chanhassen met, the Sabers won by making a play at the end of the game.

The second time they met, Chanhassen made the play to win the game.

Chanhassen upset the fi fthranked Sabers Tuesday night 27-26 in the fi rst round of the Class 5A, Section 6 playoffs when it stopped the Sabers’ two-point conversion attempt with 17.6 seconds left in the game.

The visiting Storm rolled to a 20-6 lead at halftime but saw the Sabers come all the way back and try to win the game.

Shakopee’s Taylor Johnson scored his second touchdown of the fourth quarter with 17.6 seconds left to make the score 27-26.

Sabers head coach Jody Stone elected to go for two and win instead of the extra point and play for overtime.

On the attempt, Shakopee’s quarterback Nick Larson was sacked by Chanhassen’s Nathan Holasek before he could get a throw off, ending Shakopee’s comeback attempt.

“We were going for the win,” Stone said. “We had them on their heels and we were just going for the win, it was my call.”

QUICK START Chanhassen star ted the game quickly as it jumped out to a 20-6 lead by halftime, scoring on three of four fi rst-half possessions.

The Storm took the opening kickoff and drove it right down the field and scored on a oneyard touchdown run by Maverick Edmunds. The extra point was missed to make it 6-0.

Chanhassen tried and recovered an onside kick on the ensuing kickoff and drove the ball deep into Shakopee territory. But Nick Larson picked off a Storm pass attempt at the 5-yard line to stop the Storm from scoring.

That didn’t stop Chanhassen’s of fense as the Storm scored on their next possession when Ryan McGuire made a 10 -yard run. The two-point attempt was missed and the score was 12-0 with 9:19 left in

the second quarter.

Shakopee got on the board with a five-yard touchdown run by Larson but the extra point attempt was blocked.

T wo mi nutes l ater, E dmunds pushed the lead to 20-6 on a 12-yard run. “ T hey had more energ y than us,” Stone said about the fi rst half. “They came out and ran straight at us.”

The two teams exchanged touchdowns on their fi rst two possessions of the second half to make the score 27-13.

C h a n h a s s e n ’s d e f e n s e stopped Shakopee on a fourthand-goal early in the fourth quarter to keep the game at 27-13.

But Sha kop ee’s defense tightened up and got the ball back for its offense and took advantage of the opportunity.

Shakopee cut the lead to 2720 when Johnson scored on a 37-yard touchdown reception.

Earlier on that drive, the Sabers converted a fourth-and-25 when Johnson caught a 25-yard pass.

The Sabers’ defense again held tight as Johnson intercepted a McGuire pass with 2:19 left in the game.

Shakopee scored with 17.6 seconds left but couldn’t get the two-point attempt to go and their onside kick went out of bounds to give Chanhassen the victory.

“The kids played their butts off,” Stone said.

Shakopee ends its season with an 8-1 record.

BACK-TO-BACK The Shakopee football team wrapped up its second-straight Missota Conference title and undefeated season by topping Northfield 35-21 on Wednesday night last week.

Senior Zak Hoffman scored four touchdowns as the Sabers finished the regular season 8-0.

“We were happy with it,” Stone said. “We didn’t have a whole lot of meltdowns or issues. We played pretty well.”

Shakopee’s T revor Mu lcrone took the opening kickoff deep into Northfield territory before getting tackled inside the 5-yard line.

Hoffman fi nished it off with a 2-yard touchdown run for a 7-0 lead.

Northfield answered right back with a 21-yard touchdown run by Adam Woitalla. A missed extra point kept Shakopee in the lead at 7-6.

Before the end of the fi rst quarter, Hoffman scored again to make it 14-7.

The Raiders wouldn’t go away as they tied it up with a 3-yard touchdown and a suc-

cessful two-point conversion.

Just before halftime, Larson connected with Matt Conrad for an 18-yard touchdown reception.

After halftime, the Sabers opened up a two-touchdown lead when Hoffman ran in from 14 yards for his third score of the game.

The Raiders wouldn’t go

away as they cut the score to 28-21 with a 45-yard touchdown run in third quarter.

Hoffman iced the game for the Sabers with a 4-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter to push the score to 35-21.

Hoffman carried the ball 22 times for 155 yards. Jordan Gunhus added 118 yards on 13 carries.

SHAKOPEE VOLLEYBALL

Getting back to state won’t be easy Section playoffs features five teams with 20 wins

Class 3A, Section 2 Volleyball First round Wednesday, Oct. 26 No. 9 Willmar at No. 8 Chaska No. 12 Mankato East at No. 5 Delano No. 11 Mankato West at No. 6 Prior Lake No. 10 New Prague at No. 7 Buffalo

BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

If the Shakopee volleyball team is going to get back to the state tournament it is going to have to earn it.

That’s because Class 3A, Section 2 is loaded with talented teams from top to bottom.

The No. 4-ranked Sabers got the No. 1 seed in the section but that doesn’t mean their road to the Xcel Energy Center will be easy.

The section features four teams ranked in the top 17 in the state and three teams that played at the state tournament a year ago.

“There are four teams that could easily come out of our section,” Sabers head coach Matt Busch said. “Hopefully, no more than four. Although we don’t have four teams ranked in the top 10, I still think we are a very deep section. Three out of the five teams made state last year and that doesn’t include us.”

The seedings went as Busch expected with the Sabers getting the top seed with a 23-3 record.

Hutchinson (22-3) was seeded second followed by Missota Conference champion Chanhassen (20-4) at No. 3.

Defending section champions Waconia (20-9) was seeded fifth followed by Delano (206), Prior Lake, Buffalo and Chaska.

TOUGH MATCH The Sabers got a fi rst-round bye because of their No. 1 seed but they didn’t get any favors with their second-round matchup.

Shakopee will face either No. 8 seed Chaska or No. 9 Willmar.

Second round Friday, Oct. 28, 7 p.m.

Willmar/Chaska winner at No. 1 Shakopee Delano/Mankato East winner at No. 4 Waconia Prior Lake/Mankato West winner at No. 3 Chanhassen Buffalo/New Prague winner at No. 2 Hutchinson Semifinals Tuesday, Nov. 1, 7 p.m. at high seed Championship Saturday, Nov. 5, 6 p.m., neutral site perience. It played in the Class 2A tournament last year.

In the championship match, Shakopee could face Chanhassen or Hutchinson.

Chanhassen is one of three teams to beat the Sabers this year and Hutchinson has 22 wins and is ranked 12th in the state.

The Shakopee volleyball team along with, from left, Taylor Koehn, Carlee Hoppe and Alyssa Bleess opens section playoffs on Friday night at home.

Busch said either team could give the Sabers a challenge but he is particularly worried about Chaska.

Chaska is playing mostly fresh men a nd sophomores and are starting to put things together.

“They are young,” he said.

“They’ve made the youth move-

ment and are up-and-coming.

It will be one of the toughest second-round matchups we’ve had in a long time. Certainly, not a shoo-in and not a typical 1-8 scenario, as far as I’m concerned.”

Shakopee defeated Chaska 27-25, 25-19, 25-20 on Sept. 15.

If Willmar gets past Chaska

that creates a whole different problem for Busch and the Sabers.

“I really don’t know anything about them other than their record,” he said.

Willmar enters the playoffs with a 9-10 record.

If Shakopee gets past the second round, it will either face

BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

A group of Shakopee tennis players gathered last week in Arizona to play some tennis.

It wasn’t just to practice tennis but to participate in the United State Tennis Association’s Junior Team Tennis 14U championships at the Surprise Tennis and Racquet Complex in Surprise, Ariz.

The Shakopee Corsairs competed against teams from all over the country and acquitted themselves quite well.

The Shakopee 14U advanced

the defending section champion in Waconia or a 20-win team in Delano.

The Sabers defeated Waconia 25-18, 17-25, 25-23, 25-18 on Sept. 20.

Delano is the unknown in the section.

It enters the playoffs with 20 wins and state tournament ex-

FINISHING UP The Sabers concluded the regular season by defeating Northfield 25-12, 25-13, 25-16 last week.

That win brought Shakopee’s record to 23 -3 on the season and 6-1 in the Missota Conference, which placed it second behind Chanhassen, which fi nished 7-0.

That also snaps the Sabers’ run of six-straight Missota Conference titles.

team fi nished 11th while the 14U Intermediate team finished seventh.

“It was amazing,” coach Susan Allen said. “It was a very good time. They both did really well.”

The 14U advanced team of Austin K. Wong, Brett Erickson, Haley Lickfold, Hannah Rae Hankinson, Jackson Allen, Jonah K. Salita, Katie K. Engelking, Kavir Kumar, Nicholas David Beaty, Paige McLeod and Taylor McLeod fi nished third in pool play after playing teams from Texas, Hawaii and Pennslyvania.

By finishing third they moved on to the third bracket for ninth through 12th place.

They lost to teams from

North Carolina and New Mexico.

The 14U Intermediate team of Alexander Christian Exsted, Alison Wagner, Brooks Allen, Donovan Malsom, Grace Sperr, Grayce Kathleen Petersen, Raghu Inturi, Rajadurai Arul, Steffon Mitchell and Taylor Koenen went undefeated in pool play but was placed in the second bracket because the Pacific Northwest team had won more games than the Corsairs.

In pool play, the intermediate team defeated New York, Oklahoma and Washington.

In bracket play, it lost to New Mexico and beat Colorado to fi nish seventh.

In each match, the teams

play five games — a male and female singles match, a male and female doubles match and one mixed doubles match.

They play best of three sets but the matches are decided by number of games won to emphasis the team portion of the competition.

The Corsairs qualified for the national tournament by winning the Northern division of the USTA qualifying tournament.

“Our main goal was to get everyone a couple of matches and give them some national experience and that’s what we accomplished,” Allen said.

“I’m hoping it was a positive experience and that they all will play some more tennis.”

REMEMBER WHEN

25 years ago…

From the Shakopee Valley News, 1986 Corn Power! – American corn farmers, including many in Minnesota, are hoping consumers pay no heed to the rampant “No Ethanol” campaign being propagated by some oil companies and many more local dealers. At least they are hoping that consumers will listen to their side of the story.

Some oil companies and dealers refuse to carry the blend, claiming that it causes problems with engines.

Dennis Kraft, Shakopee’s new community development director, said he plans to spend a lot of time working with people in the community. He joined the city’s staff coming from Richfield where he was also community development director for the past six years. He said there are several differences between Richfield and Shakopee.

The main one, of course, is the amount of development.

50 years ago…

From the Shakopee Valley News, 1961 Shakopee residents will be treated to a concert by internationally famed popular concert artist, Rubinoff, and his violin on Monday, Nov. 13 at the Shakopee High School Auditorium under the sponsorship of the

Beautiful Teeth, Gorgeous Smile...

Shakopee Rotary Club.

The Shakopee Community Theatre group will present “Under the Sycamore Tree” Saturday, Sunday and Monday in the Theatre Barn near Riverside Park.

A Model T Party – A meeting of all Model T Ford owners was held for the first time Sunday at the old Radamacher farm in rural Shakopee. About 40 Model T’s were represented at the “party” which included models from 1909 to 1927 with almost every year represented.

“Safety Circus” to be presented in Savage – A unique event in which elementary school chi ld ren i n Savage will learn about traffic safety through ef forts of a police officer and his talented dogs.

The trained dogs will be doing tricks which will demonstrate to the children how to be more alert to traffic safety. The officer and his dogs have toured the entire county to present their safety message.

Mr. Crooks presented a 2-year trending analysis for nitrates in municipal water wells serving Shakopee. The trending continues on a downward trend. Sampling protocol and analysis was discussed. Staff was directed to continue providing the 2-year trending on future nitrate reports and to provide them to future meetings on a quarterly basis.

Line Superintendent Athmann provided a report of current electric operations. It was reported increasing animal activity has caused several small electric outages.

The preliminary analysis of the Shakopee Substation was presented by Kevin Favero of SAIC. An overview of the existing substation was first provided as were the complications of sharing the substation with Xcel Energy.

The Commission requested further information regarding the cost estimations and costs SPUC pays for transformation on the site from Xcel Energy. Mr. Favero will have the analysis in its final report to come back to the Board within 60 days. The Commission directed Staff to begin conversations with adjacent landowners, the City of Shakopee and Xcel Energy regarding the proposed improvements to the Shakopee Substation.

The 2012 wage and compensation planning assumptions were not discussed as the two Commission subcommittee members were absent as previously advised. The memorandum will be presented at the October 17 meeting.

Go vegetarian at the library

BY BARB HEGFORS Shakopee Librarian

October is vegetarian month.

The library can be a good place for basic information and recipes.

Take a look at “Cooking Light Way to Cook Vegetarian: The Complete Visual Guide to Healthy Vegetarian and Vegan Cooking.” What is a cookbook without colorful illustrations?

The library system also subscribes to the Cooking Light magazine.

“The Everything Guide to Being Vegetarian” by Alexandra Greeley offers great advice, nutrition information and recipes you need to enjoy a healthy

lifestyle. “Living Vegetarian for Dummies” by Suzanne H. Hobbs gives you expert advice for a transition you might be considering. “Vegetables Rock!: A Complete Guide for Teenage Vegetarians” by Stephanie Pierson answers some of those questions you as a parent might have as well as questions your teenager has.

The library system offers a number of great databases that you can access from our website from home. Check out www.scott.lib.mn.us reference resources for more health advice. Our health databases include Consumer Health Complete, MEDLIN E and a few others.

Most recently the public was surprised by a visit from Snoopy from Valleyfair. We want to thank Valleyfair for its donation. We will be purchasing additional kids titles for our collection.

Our website lists all upcoming events at the Shakopee Library as well as other branches in the Scott County Library System. We are located at 235 Lewis St. S. Call (952) 233-9590 or stop by.

Our hours are from 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday and Friday; 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday, Tuesday and Thursday; 1 to 8 p.m.

Wednesday; and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.

So don’t put it off; join the millions of women who “make time” for their mammograms each year.
