Six-year-old Elle Ragin, of Northfield, is missing. Authorities are searching the area of Mississippi River County Park in Stearns County after data from a mobile device indicated her mother, the late Lisa Wade, drove to the park June 21.
Cell phone data leads law enforcement to location BY NATASHA BARBER | STAFF WRITER Editor’s note: The information contained in this article was the most current as of press time July 7. Data from a mobile device led law enforcement 125 miles northwest as the search for 6-year-old Elle Ragin continues. Search teams have been covering land and water at Mississippi River County Park and the surrounding watershed since the evening
of July 3. The park and surrounding river area are closed to the public as the investigation continues. Investigators began searching for the 3-foot, 6-inch girl with curly brown hair and brown eyes after nding her mother’s body inside their North eld apartment July 2. Authorities say 39-yearold Lisa Wade – Elle’s mom – died by suicide. Ragin’s whereabouts are unknown, but police have reason to believe Wade was involved in the child’s disappearance prior to taking her own life. Ragin was last seen June 19.

cot Milstroh and Andy Stalboerger were watching ominous storm clouds approach Wapicada Golf Course during the late-morning hours on a mid-May day. They were in the maintenance shed – not exactly a storm-safe building – when they decided to beeline for the clubhouse across the street. That turned out to be a wise decision. A couple hours later, the deluge of rain proved too much for the usually tame Mayhew Creek to contain. Fallen branches were everywhere, meaning there would be long and sometimes trying days ahead for Milstroh and his grounds crew. Yet, Milstroh would not have it any other way. “It gets a little hectic out here at times, but I like the variety of it,” said Milstroh, who is in his 35th year on the Wapicada grounds

Scot Milstroh is in his 35th year on the grounds crew at Wapicada Golf Club in Sauk Rapids – the last 10 as course superintendent. Milstroh and his staff have experienced all sorts of weather extremes in the past 12 months, including a drought and spring flooding.

crew. “I love going to work every day. I don’t think I’d do anything else. I like being outside. Sure, you have to work in the rain, cold and heat, but I’m pretty active and kind of hyper. It doesn’t suit me to sit at a desk.”
Milstroh’s love for manicuring a golf course started in summer 1997. His sister worked at the course and told him the assistant superintendent was sick, leaving then-head superintendent Mike Kasner in serious need of help.

The second member from the public was Spencer Buerkle of 611 7th Street North, Sauk Rapids, MN 56379 who had a few comments on elections and how it affects the Commissioners. Mr. Buerkle stated the Commissioners do not have a big role in the election process itself, and that was left up to the Auditor-Treasurer’s Of ce. Mr. Buerkle noted that this year is a unique situation where there are two employees from the Auditor-Treasurer’s of ce that are running for elected positions that will also be counting ballots.

Motion carried unanimously. Next on the Agenda was the recognition of the Benton County Jail Staff as our 1st Quarter Employee Recognition Winners. It is Benton County Policy to recognize workers
that go above and beyond in their daily work. There are four categories of awards: Customer Service; Innovation and Ef ciency; Employee Safety/Injury Reduction; and Inspirational Leader. The Benton County Jail Staff were nominated by Sheriff Troy Heck and selected in the category of “Customer Service”. Heck stated that in the face of unprecedented change, staff shortages, and a crisis of both physical and mental health our jail staff have done their job with excellence. Jail Administrator Sharlene Novak was present to receive the award on behalf of Benton County’s Jail Staff. Next, County Engineer Chris Byrd presented the Veteran’s Memorial Roadway Signage. As an agreement between the Foley American Legion and the Benton County Highway Department, CSAH 4 between Foley and Mille Lacs County line has been designated as Veterans Memorial Road. There will be two signs placed on this road indicating this designation. The Foley American Legion is paying for the signs and Maintenance will install them. Duane Walter, Joe Kaproth and Gary Gruba on behalf of the Foley American Legion were present to accept the signs on behalf of the Legion. Next, Byrd provided an Engineer’s Update. This was for informational purposes only. No action was taken; no motion was made. Next, Heck presented the Jail Inspection Report. Heck stated that on May 17, 2022 the Minnesota Department of Corrections (DOC) inspected the Benton County Jail for compliance with DOC rules. The Benton County Jail earned compliance ratings of 98% and 100% on mandatory and essential requirements, respectively. The inspector commented that our facility operates at a high level of compliance and that our substantial programming efforts were maintained during the pandemic. No action was taken; no motion was made. Next, Motion by Johnson and seconded by Popp to set the Committees of the Whole: Tuesday, June 28, 2022 Open House at the St. Cloud Waste Water Treatment Facility at 525 60th St S, St. Cloud, MN 56301 at 1:00 PM; Tuesday, July 12, 2022 5-Year Road Plan update, Insurance Policy, and County Ditch update by Byrd at 8:00 AM in the County Boardroom, and the Tobacco Ordinance Policy Discussion with Human Services’ Public Health at 10:00 AM in the County Boardroom; Tuesday, July 19, 2022 County Board Recognition of Employee Years of Service Milestones beginning at the Sheriff’s Of ce at 7:00 AM, Public Works Building at 7:30 AM, Human Services 3rd Floor Conference Room at 8:00 AM, and the County Boardroom at 8:30 AM. Motion carried unanimously. The Regular County Board meeting was recessed at 9:39 AM to conduct a Human Services Board Meeting. The Regular Board meeting reconvened at 9:49 AM. Next, Land Services Director Roxanne Achman requested the County Board consider a continuation of a six-year contract with Pictometry for aerial photography. Pictometry has been utilized in the County since 2006 and has proven to be a useful tool for several departments throughout the County. These photos have become integral in doing daily activities in Planning & Zoning, Assessing and Public Works. The Sheriff’s Of ce and Auditor-Treasurer’s Of ce utilize the photos as well. The most current aerial photo was taken in 2020. The previous contract was $119,304.00. This contract is $106,920.00. The decrease in cost is due to the advances in technology. A 10% reduction was applied to all contributing fund accounts. The proposed contract is for two ights (2023 and 2026) over the next 6 years. Funding will be used from the same accounts as the previous contract (Planning & Zoning, Highway, Recorder, IT and Sheriff). The majority of funding is obtained from restricted funds. Motion by Gapinski and seconded by Johnson to approve the continuation of a six-year contract with Pictometry for aerial photography. Motion carried unanimously. Next, Achman requested approval of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the Mississippi St. Cloud Watershed water management planning process. In 2015, the state initiated the transition from water management planning on a county scale to water planning on a watershed scale. Benton County is a required party of the 1W1P for this watershed. The purpose of this agreement is to collectively develop and adopt, as local government units, a coordinated watershed management plan for implementation per the provisions of the Plan. Parties signing this agreement will be collectively referred to as the Mississippi River St. Cloud Watershed Collaborative. This agreement will only cover the planning process and adoption of the plan. Once a plan is developed and adopted by the parties, then the next phase for implementation will be handled by a separate agreement. Senior Assistant County Attorney
Michelle Meyer stated that we are waiting for a few small clari cations on the MOU. Motion by Johnson and seconded by Heinen to table this discussion until the next Regular Board Meeting on Tuesday, July 5, 2022. Motion carried unanimously. Next, Achman informed the County Board of the Joint Powers Agreement for the implementation of the Rum River Comprehensive Water Management Plan. In 2015, the state initiated the transition from water management planning on a county scale to water planning on a watershed scale. The Rum River is the rst watershed plan that Benton County has been involved in. Benton County is not a required party of the Rum River 1W1P, however, the County has chosen to participate and have representation in the process and plan. The JPA creates a Board, Joint Powers Entity (JPE), and sets the framework for implementation of the Rum River Comprehensive Water Management Plan. The JPE and the Rum River Comprehensive Water Management Plan can be adopted simultaneously, however, the JPE should not be adopted until the Plan is adopted. The Benton Soil and Water Conservation District is set to review and act upon the JPA and Plan at their regularly scheduled meeting on June 22nd. Staff plan to bring the JPA and Plan to the County Board for action in July. Motion by Heinen and seconded by Johnson to table the JPA for the implementation of the Rum River Comprehensive Water Management Plan to the July 5, 2022 Regular Board Meeting. Motion carried unanimously. Next, Human Resources Director Johanna Mattson requested the County Board to consider a transition to a new provider for the County’s VEBA, HSA, and Flexible Spending Accounts. Further, the County’s current plan administrator for our VEBA, HSA, and Flexible Spending accounts was acquired by a company (HealthEquity) that will not administer VEBA plans. This requires the County to nd a new plan administrator. It seems ef cient to also move our HSA and Flexible Spending accounts to a new provider. Our broker (Marsh McLennan Agency) recommends we switch to WEX. Marsh informs us that many public employers in Minnesota that have VEBA plans are now switching to WEX. For today’s action, Mattson is requesting the County Board to approve a letter informing Further we are moving our VEBA trust account to a new trust provider. And second, Mattson is requesting the County Board approve a Resolution saying we are terminating our current VEBA trustee agreement. Other agreements will be forthcoming so that we can meet the September 1, 2022 deadline transition. Motion by Gapinski and seconded by Popp to approve a letter to Further to move our VEBA trust to Employee Bene ts Trust/Minnesota Service Cooperatives VEBA Plan. Motion carried unanimously. Motion by Gapinski and seconded by Schlangen to approve a Resolution to terminate the current VEBA trust agreement with Further and Matrix Trust Company. Motion carried unanimously. Motion by Heinen and seconded by Johnson to recess the Regular Board Meeting at 10:12 AM to conduct a closed meeting of the County Board under MN Statutes §13D.05, Subdivision 3(b), as permitted by the attorney-client privilege to discuss litigation involving a former employee alleging a violation of the federal Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA). Regular Board Meeting reconvened at 10:23 AM. Under Comments by Commissioners, Heinen commented on the professionalism of the County Board, and to wear name tags when attending various events and meetings; Johnson sought out other Board member attendance at the next Soil and Water Conservation District meeting. Motion by Heinen and seconded by Gapinski to recess the Regular Board Meeting at 10:45 AM to conduct the Ditch Authority Meeting. Motion carried unanimously. Regular Board Meeting reconvened at 10:53 AM. Motion by Johnson and seconded by Gapinski to recess the Regular Board Meeting at 10:54 to conduct a closed meeting of the County Board under MN Statutes §13D.05, Subdivision 3(b), as permitted by the attorney-client privilege to discuss litigation with the case of Benton County Board v. Nadean Inman, Auditor Treasurer with outside counsel. Regular Board Meeting reconvened at 11:32 AM. Motion by Gapinski and seconded by Johnson to adjourn the Regular Board meeting at 11:33 AM.
