Rosemount girl Waving goodbye to 100 pounds suddenly in battle against disease Apple Valley woman writing book to chronicle weight-loss success story

by Andrew Miller THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

October benefit fundraiser event planned by Laura Adelmann THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Molly McGovern should have been starting as a sixthgrader at Rosemount Middle School this week. Instead, the 11-year-old soccer player was working hard to move her arms and legs and her parents, Jo and Dennis McGovern, were excited that she was able to breathe without a ventilator. Hospitalized in August after several doctor trips and weeks of cold-like symptoms that expanded to include muscle pain and weakness, Molly was eventually diagnosed with Guillain-BarrĂŠ syndrome. The rare disorder causes the body’s immune system to attack its nervous system. Since the unexpected diagnosis, Jo and Dennis have been by Molly’s side in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit at St. Paul’s Children’s Hospital as she undergoes numerous treatments and therapies. But her care is expected to last for many more months. Doctors plan to move her to Gillette Hospital for inpatient rehabilitation, where she will also begin a school program. “We don’t exactly know how long yet as to how much nerve damage there has been,â€? Jo wrote. On Molly’s Caring Bridge website, MollyMcGovern1,

she frequently writes of Molly’s determination to work hard so she can overcome the disease and return home. Friends and family have pitched in to help care for the McGoverns’ other children, Megg, 15, and Bailey, 13, making sure they get rides and meals, as well as taking care of the yard and home. While insurance covers some of Molly’s medical costs, the family will have thousands in out-of-pocket expenses. “We have heard that there are a lot of things that will not be covered by insurance,� Jo added. To help the family pay the medical bills, a fundraiser will be held at Celt’s Pub on Oct. 9 starting at 5 p.m. A silent action will be held until 10 p.m. for items See Fundraiser, 8A

Grandpa arrested after altercation over scooter Fight in Apple Valley allegedly involved fake gun, real knife by Laura Adelmann THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

home with a BB gun, a replica of a black semi-automatic pistol, wrapped in a bag and holding it in front of himself. Davis told police he intended to intimidate and scare off the three individuals, but he was unable to pull the gun out of the bag because he was nervous. One of the men wrestled the gun from him, discovered it was a BB gun and broke it. When the man attempted to leave, Davis followed him to a vehicle carrying a knife and cut him while the man tried to get into the vehicle. According to police reports, there was an altercation between the men and police were called. Apple Valley Police Chief Scott Johnson said statements were taken from all the men and the case turned over to the Dakota County Attorney’s Office for charges. “I think tempers got the better of everyone involved in this one,� said Johnson. “I don’t recommend anyone take the law into their own hands,� Johnson added. “Call the police. That’s what we’re getting paid for.�

Carol Fitzgerald Tyler vividly remembers the day she resolved to slim down. Fitzgerald Tyler, whose weight had peaked at around 250 pounds, was walking back from dinner at a restaurant with a friend in May 2006 when she tripped and fell in the middle of an intersection. Between the two of them, they couldn’t lift her up off the ground. “I decided enough was enough,� said Fitzgerald Tyler, 48, of Apple Valley. “It was one of those ‘aha’ moments.� Committed to losing the weight and keeping it off, Fitzgerald Tyler dropped more than 100 pounds the old-fashioned way – eating less and getting plenty of exercise, including regular participation in marathons and half-marathons. She’s now writing a book, tentatively titled “Transformation: Shedding My Skin,� chronicling her weight-loss story. “I feel like I’ve been called to share this story to inspire others,� she said. “My message is: No

low point in her life – she was obese, had just lost her job, and had been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia. She knew it was time

for a change. “I just remember being unhappy and uncomfortable,â€? said Fitzgerald Tyler, who at the time described herself as “a member in good standing of the couch potato tribe.â€? See Weight Loss, 8A

Economy puts Rosemount developers’ plans on hold Developers hope demand will increase in next few years by Laura Adelmann THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Development plans for acreage in eastern Rosemount is likely on hold for the next several years, according to developers who appeared before the Rosemount Port Authority on Tuesday. City officials invited Scott Johnson with Arcon Development and Warren Israelson of KJWalk Inc.

to discuss development concerns at the meeting. A few years ago, Target Corp. was considering building a store on about 26 acres of land partially owned by Israelson, located north of County Road 42 and east of Highway 3. But officials at Target were unsuccessful in their attempts to get a stoplight installed nearby, and they instead built the store south of the area at Pilot Knob and 160th Street. Now, Israelson said he’s talked to several businesses, including Lowe’s, but nobody is interested now.

“The best way to build out is to get a big box first, then others will follow, but that doesn’t seem likely for a few years,� Israelson said. Arcon Development owns about 50 acres near County Road 42 and Akron Avenue. “Walmart was looking at it, but they’re not interested in it anymore,� said Rosemount Development Director Kim Lindquist. But, she added that Walmart is starting to change some of the emphasis in some of its shops, and may be interested in some new locations.

“That is something we’re going to start pursuing, to see if we can ignite some new interest in Rosemount,� Lindquist said. Utilities were installed at the acreage last year, using stimulus funding, an effort that Lindquist said would make the property easier to market. Johnson said companies would be more interested in building in the area if

housing was first developed. “If we can get started on residential construction out there, then at that point, it will start opening the door to the commercial market again,� Johnson said. Israelson added that he’s considered many options, including rezoning his property to allow development of apartments, but

that industry is also struggling. “I always blamed it on the railroad tracks as being a dividing line. For whatever reason, they don’t want to come east of the tracks. I don’t know, now they don’t want to build west of the tracks either,� Israelson said. Laura Adelmann is at dceditor@frontiernet.net.

Rosemount council sets preliminary levy City portion of taxes will decline on median value home THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

For the second time in as many years, Rosemount property owners can expect the city portion of their property tax to be reduced. Rosemount City Council members on Sept. 7 approved the $16.7 million 2011 preliminary budget, which will cut the average homeowner’s city portion of their property tax by $64 next year. In 2010, city taxes on an average property were cut by $77. Those lower tax payments are part of the reason the city’s planning on having $364,700 less in its budget from 2010, a drop of 2.14 percent. The city is planning to

lose 5.08 percent in its tax base from 2010 and 8 percent in residential values, said Jeff May, city finance director. In addition, the city is continuing to budget assuming it will not receive its Market Value Homestead Credit funds from the state of Minnesota, an assumption held since 2007. Next year, that funding, had the Legislature approved it, would have returned $429,507 to the city.

Reductions planned The budget situation came as no surprise. Anticipating the fallout from reduced development, falling property values and general economic conditions, city staff and coun-

cil spent much of this year considering and implementing some changes in future operations and plans. Early in the year, council members began the budget process by setting goals, then reviewing possible money-saving options. As a result, the preliminary budget includes cutting a Parks and Recreation tiny tot program that had been losing popularity, reducing the number of city newsletters and park brochures produced and also reducing travel and conference budgets. But one of the biggest moves the city made that allowed the city to reduce its 2011 levy was the decision to pay down its debt using See Levy, 13A

David was preceded in death by his parents, Virginia and Roy Kautz. In addition to his wife and sons, survivors include his brother, Fred (Joan), of LaCrosse, Wis., and sister, Jackie (Don) Ager, of his native Muscatine, Iowa; and nieces, nephews, friends and neighbors.

The late David Kautz kept a low profile in Burnsville and its politics. He was a quiet partner in the public life of his wife, Elizabeth, Burnsville’s mayor and current president of the U.S. Conference of Mayors. “He was the sign guy� during election seasons, said Elizabeth, who was first elected mayor in 1994. “And he knew every place in Burnsville. He was very diligent about making sure that on the night of the election, by 10 o’clock, he would have all of the signs down. And he would finish it up the next day if we had any left.� David Kautz died of cancer on Sept. 1, 2010. He was 67. An Iowa native, David met Elizabeth when both attended the University of Iowa. They married in 1968 and moved to Burnsville 10 years later. “He was a very quiet and understated person,� Elizabeth said. “He supported me and the things that I did, but what people don’t realize is that David would do things for people in need.� A number of times he took on household chores for neighborhood families stricken by serious illnesses, Elizabeth said. “This is the way that David showed his care and his support of the community and the people in the community,� she said. “When he would be asked to help take Meals on Wheels with one of our neighbors, he would do that. He never did anything to draw attention to himself, but he would quietly do the things he thought were

the right things that cared about people.� A college golfer and “great American,� David landed special-service duty on a military golf team while serving in the U.S. Marine Corps, Elizabeth said. “When the war broke out he gave up the special service to go fight for his county in Vietnam,� she said. He worked for 42 years in the floor-covering industry. Diagnosed with cancer in May 2008, he continued to work as a manufacturer’s representative until May of this year, Elizabeth said. She is a survivor of uterine cancer and breast cancer. “What we have always said to ourselves is that this is part of the journey,� Elizabeth said. “It’s what we do with the journey that we’ve been blessed or privileged to have, and how it shapes us as human beings.� She and the couple’s two sons – Kyle of Portland, Ore., and Kevin of Laguna

Opinion Thisweek Columnist Local educators offer families back-to-school advice by Joe Nathan THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

School District 196 leaders and other educators in other school districts have advice to families for the coming school year. Here’s what they recommend: Paulette Reikowski, Eagan High School principal, explained that “the most important action by parents/guardians is to set a clear expectation and practice that school and education is very important and must come first. If the parent/guardian can take time each day to be with their son or daughter, talk school, look over assignments and homework and

never believe there is nothing to do for the next day. At the high school level there will always be work to take home and do in the evening. Come to school open houses, to Parent/Teacher Conferences and to events – be involved.” Dan Bodette, director of the School for Environmental Studies in Apple Valley, said,“as a parent, I would recommend asking their child at every dinner or every car ride, how their school day was. I would then follow up with a question or two to probe deeper into the day. I would also recommend

probing about future careers/aspirations and then help them go online with the multiple tools to find potential college/universities, fields of work, etc.” John Wollersheim, principal at Rosemount High School, believes that the most important advice to parents is to “make the school experience a three-way partnership between their teacher/school, their child and themselves. When all three of the partners are working together, the school experience can be maximized. For many parents the opportunity to enter into this partnership begins with open house or other pre-school activities offered by their school.”

Ben Kusch, Farmington High School principal, wrote: “Engage. Encourage, nay REQUIRE, that your student engage and get involved in ‘school life,’ be it in athletics, activities or clubs. Research supports that students involved in school activities of any sort do better in school academically and socially. Help your student find their niche. Don’t go overboard, though. There is a law of diminishing returns that occurs when students are involved in greater than five school activities. Parents can engage by getting to know their students’ teachers and attending events at the school. Find out what your school is working

on this year to improve student learning and achievement.” Over and over, these educators stressed communication and attitude. They want to hear from families. They ask families to encourage and listen to youngsters. Families following this advice will be a huge help to their children. Joe Nathan, a former public school teacher and administrator, directs the Center for School Change at Macalester College. He welcomes reactions, jnathan@macalester. edu. Columns reflect the opinion of the author.

Letters Support Hooppaw To the editor: We have had the opportunity to visit with Clint Hooppaw since he started his campaign for the Apple Valley City Council. It is refreshing to see someone who has a 6-yearold daughter willing to dedicate time to our community. Like us, he understands why we need safe neighborhoods and good parks, and still need to keep taxes at a reasonable level. We plan to vote for Clint Hooppaw because, as he said, “Together we can make a difference.” JASON and NATASCHA GILLEN Apple Valley

Supports Hoopaw for AV City Council To the editor: I don’t write many letters to the editor for or against many things but when you know the quality of a candidate for a local office like Clint Hoopaw I feel compelled to share it. I have known Hoopaw for over 10 years through our mutual membership in the Apple Rotary Club. As I have been a member of this club for over 25 years I have seen many members come and go. Some were there and gone and did not make an impact, but you remember the ones who do make a positive impact. Clint is one of those types of people. He has always been at the front of the line to volunteer his time to contribute to many Rotary programs, which benefit our community in many ways that are not always noticed by the public. He has done this in a modest, consistent manner with the type of energy and hard work that our community needs. He has served as president, treasurer and also as director on the club’s board, and done so with the positive leadership skills we need on our City Council.

ing economy. Alternatively, the Pew Research Center reported recently that 8 percent of all babies born in the United States are born to illegal immigrants. At this rate, it doesn’t take a lot of math to wonder about the future social implications of having such a huge change in the proportion of U.S. citizens born to illegal immigrants. The Arizona law and discussion about changing the 14th Amendment are logical and understandable outcomes of failing to deal with illegal immigration. Let’s hope both outcomes are only tactics to invigorate a strategy of getting comprehensive immigration reform done. JOHN NERDAHL Lakeville

Got friends? To the editor: Bill McKibben, founder of the website 350.org, has been quoted as saying we have 40 percent fewer friends than people did in 1960. This is mainly because of technology. People today spend their time with high-definition TV and playing games on their handheld devices. People 50 years ago spent their time visiting with neighbors. So instead of taking your family shopping for a high-definition television, why don’t you take your family to a park to bicycle? Especially if it is Casperson Park in Lakeville on Oct. 10 at 1 p.m., where the Lakeville Friends of the Environment are holding a bicycle ride. Bring your camera because you may be lucky enough to get your picture taken with Will Steger. HARLEY HORSAGER Lakeville

Education begins in the home To the editor: Paul Hoffinger whines about his friend who teaches at a public school expecting 40 students per room (Thisweek, Aug. 20). He then makes this statement: “There was

a day when that might have worked with particularly well-behaved young people, and as I recall, it wasn’t a great success even then.” As one of those students who was part of those very same classes which in the lower grades contained 45 students in two different grades taught by one teacher who didn’t even have a four-year college degree, I challenge him to match my resume and that of other classmates. He would be one sorry, sick individual if he tried. Not only did we succeed tremendously in the military but in civilian life as well. They called us the greatest generation. As a mentor and big brother, and being internationally recognized for expertise in six different skill areas, I also was a teacher and adjunct professor for 22 years. My students were part of classes that reached 100 or more as they did at the U of M after World War II. Some students had to sit out in the hall getting their information by intercom. Education begins in the home, where the objectives are set and reinforced. We can no longer afford parents and students who do not get the picture. FRANKLIN M. WICKER Lakeville

Art and All That Jazz was a big success

children who held music instruments in their hands for the first time, to seniors who were dancing in the streets, the festival has never reached a crowd so diverse, and has never brought so much pleasure to those who came. None of this would have been possible without an army of volunteers and sponsors. Art and All That Jazz Inc. is a nonprofit corporation, and all those who work for it do so because of their belief in the event. No one receives financial compensation. We thank all those who made the festival possible. Your community thanks you, and we thank you for giving us this weekend. The eighth festival will be held Aug. 19-20, 2011. We hope that you will partner with us again and help us to raise the festival to even greater heights. NIGEL LINDEN Art and All That Jazz Inc.

Natural gas To the editor: While running for office, President Barack Obama promised that if elected, he would get us off OPEC oil within 10 years. Two years are gone and we still don’t have a plan. In fact, there is some evidence that we’re going in the wrong direction. In July 2010, we imported 388 million barrels of oil. That’s the single largest import month since President Obama was inaugurated. The federal NAT GAS Act will create jobs, clean up the environment, and improve our national security by providing tax incentives to replace fleets of vehicles fueled by imported oil with vehicles that run on domestic natural gas. Election Day will soon be here. Everyone running for office needs to take a look at this legislation and make a promise to reduce our need for OPEC oil a central part of their campaigns. Let’s get the ball rolling on reducing our reliance on foreign oil.

To the editor: I think it is safe to say, from all respects, this year’s two-day Art and All That Jazz Festival was a resounding success. Larry Carlton kicked off the event in the Burnsville Performing Arts Center Friday night, and Jesse Cook headlined Saturday’s outdoor festival in Nicollet Commons Park. In addition to fine musicians, we had top-quality art vendors, and many delicious food offerings. We touched the lives of well over 15,000 people who were able to come for free to a community gathering that the whole family could enjoy. By the opening of our final act, the park was packed tight with a sea of ELIZABETH TOWNLEY people, each with his or her Lakeville own story. From the young

Komen Breast Cancer 3-Day this summer, and plans to participate in three marathon-type events this fall. On average, she exercises four times a week, doing weights, treadmill and the elliptical trainer. It’s clear what her weight-loss “secret� is. “There’s no secret. It’s hard work and discipline,� said the 1979 graduate of Burnsville High School. “It’s the old-fashioned way – don’t eat so much and move your butt once in a while.� She maintains a blog, http://11carpediem. blogspot.com, where she gives updates on her weight-loss progress and exercise regimen. “I get notes (on the blog) all the time from people who say, ‘You inspired me to lose X pounds,’ � she said. “If I can inspire one person to do a 5K, I’m thrilled.�

“My joints hurt all the time, and I was eating everything that wasn’t nailed down,� she added. “I was feeling pretty sorry for myself.� After cheering on a friend participating in the annual Grandma’s Marathon in Duluth, she decided to try walking in a marathon herself. Because she was so out of shape, her training was slow-going at first. The first day, she and her husband walked out of their garage and to the end of the driveway. That was the extent of it. The next day, the couple walked halfway down the block. Each day, she went a little farther, and in January 2002 she completed the Team Diabetes Disney World Half Marathon, raising about $4,000 for diabetes research in the process.

Thisweekend Festival puts focus on up-and-coming playwrights Chameleon Theatre Circle presents 10th annual New Play Festival by Andrew Miller THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Singing pirates. An exiled king and a sleeping princess. The mating habits of preying mantises. God’s desire to relinquish control of the universe. This year’s New Play Festival presented by Chameleon Theatre Circle features a mix of stories ranging from the mundane to the macabre to the utterly fantastic. The free-admission festival on Sept. 11 at the Burnsville Performing Arts Center features the winning entries from Chameleon’s annual New Play Contest, which drew 146 submissions from playwrights across the globe. The nine winning entries will be staged “reader’s theater� style (meaning actors will have scripts in hand and won’t be wearing costumes) from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the PAC’s Black Box Theatre. “The purpose of this is to help playwrights nurture and develop their craft,� festival coordinator Andrew

Troth said of the contest and festival, now in its 10th year. “And one of the things Chameleon was formed to do is provide theater experiences in the south metro that people would otherwise have to travel downtown for.� Playwrights whose work is featured at the festival hail from all corners of the country, and two of the playwrights live outside the United States. Robin Pond, who wrote the play “Missing,� lives in Toronto; James Sievert, who authored the drama “No Flash Bright Enough,� is a Switzerland resident. Michael Peroz of Eagan is the sole Dakota County playwright whose work will be presented at the festival. His play, “Thorns,� is an historical fantasy featuring assassins, a witch, a sleeping princess and other fantastic-fiction tropes. Each staging will be followed by a 10- to 15-minute discussion of the play with the audience, and the audience will get to vote on the Best of Festival winner. Those who go aren’t be-

CURRENT WEEK

Soldier who lost both legs shares his story theater and arts calendar John Kriesel will sign copies of his book ‘Still Standing’ on Sept. 18 in Apple Valley Staff Sgt. John Kriesel lost both his legs and two of his buddies in 2006 to a roadside bomb in Iraq. The Army National Guard soldier from Cottage Grove, working with writer Jim Kosmo, has turned his story of survival into a book, “Still Standing: The Story of SSG John Kriesel.� Kriesel and Kosmo will be on hand to sign copies of the book and answer questions at 1 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 18, at the Apple Valley Barnes & Noble, 14880 Florence Trail. “Still Standing� gives a boots-on-theground soldier’s account of Kriesel’s combat experience, followed by his long recovery. The forword to “Still Standing� was written by Gov. Tim Pawlenty, who visited Kriesel at Walter Reed Army Medical Center not long after the roadside-bomb

explosion near Fallujah, Iraq. “As I walked into his room, I was hoping that I could provide some encouragement and comfort to a wounded warrior,� Pawlenty wrote. “Instead, I left the hospital being encouraged and comforted by John and his incredibly strong wife, Kate.� To d a y, Kriesel is a civilian employee in marketing for the Minnesota National Guard and a part-time sports voice with KFAN radio. He also does public-speaking engagements with students, veterans and church groups to share his story of recovery. “I’m just happy to be alive,� Kriesel said. “I realize I’m not normal any longer and I have a mission – I have learned many lessons that I must pass on.� More about “Still Standing� is at www.

Ye Old Memories at State Fair Fair favorite Ye Old Mill has been in the Keenan family for 97 years by John Gessner HISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

After the heat and humidity that opened the State Fair, Marna Keenan could hardly believe the change in the air on Friday, Sept. 3. Chill winds gusting across the fairgrounds threatened to topple a canopy over the small patio behind Ye Old Mill. The patio is where members of the Keenan clan, which has owned the fair’s longestrunning attraction since 1913, take a break from their day’s work. “Last year we had perfect weather every day,� Marna said, bundled up in a warm jacket and jeans. “Never will it happen again.� But fairgoers can always count on Ye Old Mill, thanks to John H. and Marna Keenan of Burnsville, who own Ye Old Mill Amusements Inc. The gentle, four-minute ride in miniature boats through Ye Old Mill’s water-filled concrete channel has become an iconic experience for generations of fairgoers – some of whom, it is claimed, stole a first kiss or even proposed marriage in the pitch-black tunnel. Numerous fairgoers have urged him to never change a thing about the “tunnel of love,� said John, 68. It’s housed in the same wooden building his grandfather, also named John H. Keenan, opened at the Minnesota State Fair 97 years ago. The motor that powers the ride is an original, too – a 40-horse, General ElectricWestinghouse electric engine whose longevity is at least partially explained by the fact that it operates only 12 days a year. “We’ll keep it just as traditional as the day grandfather bought it,� said Marna, John’s wife of 47 years. John Keenan’s grandfather lived in Philadelphia, where he owned a string of vaudeville theaters there in the early 1900s. With the advent of talking pictures, he predicted the end of vaudeville and sought out other entertainment ventures. His son, John Jr., went to work for the Philadelphia Toboggan Co., a manufacturer of carnival rides. Working with the company, the Keenans developed the first Ye Old Mill and began setting up shop across the land. The Keenans built Ye Old Mills in Minnesota; Des Moines, Iowa; Hutchinson, Kan.; Topeka, Kan.; Little Rock, Ark.; Oklahoma City, Okla.; and Shreveport, La. John H. Keenan’s father, James, bought the family business in the 1940s. By the time John took over in 1967, Ye Old Mills remained only at the Minnesota and Iowa state fairgrounds. John sold the Iowa property in 1972.

the ride’s timeless appeal. “There’s nothing that jumps out and scares them. We kind of gear the scenes toward kids.� It’s been entertaining enough for the likes of Sonny and Cher (who visited when they performed at the fair grandstand long ago), Janet Jackson (who came through with record producer Jimmy Jam, a Ye Old Mill fan), ex-Timberwolf Kevin Garnett, Garrison Keillor, Minnesota musician Martin Zellar and – by the family’s count – every governor for decades except Jesse Ventura and Tim Pawlenty. “Rudy Perpich loved it,� Marna said. “He’d come every year.� Last year a man proposed marriage in Ye Old Mill, John said. This year, one of the riders was a 92-year-old woman, Marna said. Fairgoers “come up to the window and say stuff like, ‘My parents brought me here when I was a kid, and now I have my three grandkids,’ � John said. “We hear all kinds of those things from people – especially on Senior Citizens Day. They’ll stand outside. They may not ride, but you can tell they’re reminiscing.� John Gessner is at burnsville. thisweek@ecm-inc.com.

For 35 years he worked for PDQ stores while he and Marna raised four sons. “I worked, and then I’d come over here in the evenings,� said John, who also hired workers to perform annual maintenance of Ye Old Mill during the pre-fair months. As his sons – Jim of Savage, Jeremy of Mesa, Ariz., John Jr. of Gilbert, Ariz. and Joe of Los Angeles – grew up, they found themselves with ready-made summer jobs. “I always thought I’d give them money for college anyway, but they worked hard for it,� John said. The sons always return for the fair, this year with five of John and Marna’s seven grandchildren in tow. Having retired from PDQ several years ago, John puts in more time at Ye Old Mill, with help in recent summers from a trio of Burnsville college students: David Meyer, Tony Glass and Jeff Litchke. “It used to be I’d have to train somebody every summer,� John said. “These guys, I’d give ’em a list, and they’d get ’er done.� Ye Old Mill’s electric engine powers a system of gears, chains and clutches that propels the boats along tracks into and out of the stream. The engine also powers the large, yellow paddlewheel that creates the current that carries the boats through blackness interrupted only by intermittent set pieces in the walls. “I think it’s the darkness,� John said, describing

It looks great. Federal dollars sent our way to help retain jobs in local school districts: Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan is poised to receive an estimated $5 million, Burnsville-Eagan-Savage nearly $2 million and Lakeville about $2 million. But, as local school administrators say, this money is no windfall. In other words, the money is not a blitz of funding from the federal or state governments to the districts. When it comes to school funding, nothing is so simple. “This is a reimbursement program,� said RosemountApple Valley-Eagan Finance Director Jeff Solomon. “There is some risk waiting for the federal money.� The districts must spend the money first and then apply for reimbursement from the state by September 2012. For at least one area district, the timing is not the best, either. Though the U.S. Department of Education will likely approve the funding soon, the money could take a while to reach

local hands. Given that last year districts decided on a budget for this school year, the likely scenario is that “we are looking at October at the earliest to bring people on board for only seven or eight months,� said Burnsville-Eagan-Savage Superintendent Randy Clegg. “We won’t know for another year what the actual amount is,� Clegg said. For area districts looking to stave off future budget deficits, the 2012 deadline is much more useful.

How to spend it The $10 billion Education Jobs Fund Act was passed last month to provide “assistance to States to save or create education jobs for the 2010-11 school year,� according to the U.S. Department of Education’s official literature on the topic. The funds are a one-time distribution. Districts can technically use the money during the 2011-12 school year, but the Department of Education is emphasizing the use of the money as soon as possible. For at least two southmetro school districts which are facing $20 million deficits in the coming years and levy questions this fall, using the money this year is not an option. “We are planning to recommend to our (school) board to utilize the funds

for 2011-2012,� Solomon said. The Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan school district is facing $24 million in budget adjustments for that school year if voters do not approve this fall’s operating levy. Should they approve it, the gap would be about $8 million. The $5 million Jobs Fund allocation would help to ease the pain and reduce the need for the district to dip into savings to pay operating expenses. “If the levy is successful, (the Jobs Fund dollars) would pretty much take away the need to reduce at all next year,� Solomon said. The Lakeville school district, which faces $21 million in budget adjustments, will also put levy questions on the ballot this fall. Even if Lakeville voters render a positive answer on the ballot, the district faces $3 million in adjustments for 2011-12. As with the neighbor to the north, Lakeville superintendent Gary Amoroso said the money will be used more appropriately next year. “We will use the $2 million to help offset the deficit,� Amoroso said. “We appreciate the availability of the finds, but they don’t really assist in solving our next biennium deficit if we use them this year.� Amoroso said he will discuss this with the board at

its Sept. 16 meeting. The Burnsville-EaganSavage school district is not in the same financial situation as its neighbors. There are no anticipated cuts, adjustments or levy questions. The challenge for the district, Clegg said, is to make sure to balance the need for the funds with the considerations of the consequences of adding positions. “We want to make sure not to create a ‘maintenance of effort’ situation where we have to continue an expenditure once the funds are gone,� Clegg said. If the district adds a certain type of position, he said, state mandates may require them to fund it beyond the rest of the school year. Clegg said the school board will discuss this issue soon, but the district is not expecting to use this money for a while. Though it comes with caveats and waiting periods, and is only a one-time reimbursement for expenses, local school district officials all said they were thankful for the help. “It’s one more year of being able to offer some programming and have some staffing we otherwise would not have,� Amoroso said.

Dakota County Funeral service held for Lakeville police officer by Derrick Williams THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Funeral services were held for Lakeville Police Sgt. Brigham Scott Strole, a 20-year veteran of Lakeville’s Police Department, on Wednesday, Sept. 8. Strole was killed in an offduty motorcycle crash near his home on Wednesday, Sept. 1. Most of the Lakeville Police Department’s officers and staff were at the funeral for Strole, held at Hosanna! Church in Lakeville. A number of officers from other agencies also attended the service. Following the funeral, 18 Lakeville Police cruisers escorted the hearse carrying Strole’s body back to White Funeral Home in Lakeville, Levy/from 3A the 2009 surplus funds. May said that paying off two debts saved $190,000 in tax levies for 2011. In addition, the city used 2009 surplus funds to pay for outdoor warning sirens and police records software, a decision that has so far stopped an increase in the city’s Capital

stopping for nearly a minute in front of the Lakeville Police Station as a memorial. Lakeville Police Chief Thomas Vonhof said Strole, 46, was the only victim of the one-vehicle incident which occurred in a residential neighborhood of Lakeville at 9 p.m. “We’re still in shock,� Vonhof said. “You just can’t prepare for something like this.� Vonhof said he broke the news to the department at a full-department meeting the night of the crash, and officers have been wearing mourning bands on their badges since the crash. “Brigham was a very generous person in that he was always willing to mentor younger officers and share

his experience with them,� Vonhof said. “Words cannot express the level of loss and sorrow.� At the Sept. 7 City Council meeting, a moment of silence was observed in Strole’s honor. According Lt. Eric Roeske of the State Patrol, the agency investigating the crash, investigators are trying to determine if Strole lost control of his motorcycle after he hit a pothole or manhole cover along Jordan Court just south of Jonquil Avenue. In the incident, Strole was thrown from his motorcycle and hit his head on the curb. He wasn’t wearing a helmet. Roeske said alcohol didn’t appear to be a factor, but authorities were investigating all causes.

Improvement Program Fund. However, there may be a need to replace vehicles next year, an issue the council will discuss in a future meeting. In another money-saving measure, the city will incorporate a higher deductible on its insurance in 2011. May said there is enough money in the city’s insurance fund to buffer the risk.

According to May, the city avoided raising its street CIP fund by the previously recommended 6 percent annually to just over 1 percent in 2011. The adjustment was possible because of low inflation and fewer construction projects.

Vonhof said in the 30-plus years he’s been with Lakeville’s Police Department, this is the first time they’ve lost an officer. “He was close to a lot of us,� Vonhof said. “He was a mentor to many officers.� Strole is probably best known in Lakeville as the human half of one of Lakeville’s two K-9 teams. “You can’t talk about Brigham and not talk about his K-9 partner Blue,� Vonhof said. During the duo’s eightyear partnership, Strole and Blue were considered among the best K-9 teams in the country, rising to 13th nationally. “He had such a passion for his work,� Vonhof said. Strole served with Blue for

eight years until the canine was retired in March of this year. Strole received numerous commendations and awards for his service over the years, according to Lakeville police. During his years in uniform, Strole also served as a member of the SWAT team, and as a field training officer and instructor in defensive tactics and firearms. Lakeville police and fire departments responded to the crash along with a team of Allina paramedics. Strole was airlifted to Hennepin County Medical Center where he died. Strole is preceded in death by his sister, Sharrah Strole. He is survived by his children, Jacob and Jenna Strole and their mother, Lynn Strole; fa-

there were also increases in the preliminary budget, including a union-negotiated 1.5 percent salary increase for the city’s 78 full-time employees. At first, May anticipated a 10 percent health insurance premium increase, but has budgeted for an 18 percent increase. Rising costs The city is shopping for While cuts were made, better rates, but won’t receive

bids before the city must adopt the levy and budget; adjustments may be made later to accommodate any reductions. Other expenses include budgeting for a loss for the Steeple Center’s premier year, with $87,500 in expenses and $13,500 in revenues anticipated in 2011. Over half the expenditures

The Rosemount Irish won their season opener 34-13 against Bloomington Kennedy on Sept. 2 thanks to 389 total yards. The team did most of its damage with 48 rushing attempts for 287 yards. Nicholas Liska was the workhorse, running 20 times for 88 yards, and Kevin Larson broke free for a 71-yard touchdown run. Larson also threw for 102 yards and two touchdowns, all to Andrew Hausmann.

Eastview’s Jacob Ulrich, No. 46, is poised to recover a fumble from Lakeville North’s Jake Berg, No. 28. It didn’t help as Eastview lost to Lakeville North 3-0 in the season opener on Sept. 2 in overtime. Eastview held Lakeville North to less than 100 yards total and came close to scoring in overtime, but an interception put a stop to the drive.

Girls cross country: Irish pick up where they left off by Andy Rogers THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

It looks like the magic the Irish captured in 2009 won’t be vanishing anytime soon. The girls team will have six of the seven runners that helped Rosemount finish 10th in the Class AA state meet last fall. It was the first time the team qualified since 1981. At their own Irish Invitational on Sept. 3, Rosemount finished in sixth place, with Armstrong the only nonranked team to fin-

ish ahead of Rosemount. Tori Grund and Ashley Comstock paced the Irish with 20th- and 22nd-place finishes, respectively. Just 40 seconds separated the seven Irish runners. “We have more depth this season than in the past, evidenced by our small one through seven spread,” coach Chris Harder said. “We have a lot of work to do, but this was a good opening meet.” Other key runners who should help Rosemount get back to state include Bridg-

Apple Valley The Eagles certainly aren’t loaded with seniors in 2010, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have any speed or endurance. The girls ran to fourth place at the Dakota Classic. Alexa Nelson was the top finisher for Apple Valley, coming in ninth overall out of more than 60 runners. Hannah Segar was about See Girls, 18A

Rosemount The Irish have a long list of swimmers this year with many underclassmen eager for a spot on varsity. Several of those underclassmen already have state tournament experience. Elyse Griffith, Beth Wenman and Claire Tolan were all members of the statequalifying 400 freestyle relay last fall. “They look very strong, and are capable of being state qualifiers,” coach Tami Carlson said. Wenman was also part of the 200 freestyle relay along with returning swimmer Teija Normandeau. Megan Jelinski is another key underclassman back swimming for the Irish along with diver Claire Judeh. Carlson’s goal is to have a winning record in the team’s dual-meet schedule and qualify some individuals and two relays in the state meet. Andy Rogers is at andy.rogers@ecm-inc.com.

The Lightning girls swim team is hoping to glide through the water faster than anyone else this season. Given the talent returning to the pool this season, Eastview should be in the mix with Lakeville North and Prior Lake for the South Suburban Conference title, as well as the Section 3AA title. Coach Mark Tollefson feels so confident that he thinks the team has the potential to break all three relay records as well as the school records in the backstroke, breaststroke and fly. The Lightning have two returning swimmers with state tournament experience in Breanna Schlegel and Kayla Hutsell. Hutsell finished third in the Class AA state tournament last year in the butterfly and sixth in the backstroke. Schlegel was part of the 200-yard medley that qualified for state last year as well. Eastview also has Kristin Podratz, Emily Kilen, Kelsey Deinhammer, Leah Anderson and Katharine Hamand back swimming and diving with Eastview printed on their swim caps. Anderson and Podratz were part of the 200 freestyle relay that finished 13th at state. “Many (members of

our) team trained extensively over the past nine months and we are looking to improve upon our section and state meet performance from last year,” Tollefson said. The team already defeated Burnsville in the season opener 91-78.

Barbecue offers unlikely path to redemption fail in the first year, Baldy’s turned a large enough profit for Wheeler to lease a stand-alone building in Minneapolis along the University of Minnesota’s West Bank. Baldy’s BBQ restaurant No. 2 opened on Sept. 3. David Siegel, executive vice president of the Minnesota Restaurant Association, said Wheeler’s success is an impressive feat. “Any restaurant surviving and expanding in this economy is doing a great job,â€? Siegel said. For the first year in 10 years, more restaurants closed than opened, Siegel said. “There is no room for mistakes right now,â€? he said. “Restaurants, especially new ones, require good management to be successful – keeping costs down with suppliers, and labor, and right now, it’s hard to do everything right.â€? The new restaurant is located at 1813 Riverside Ave., near the corner of Cedar and Riverside avenues, and features dinein, take-out and delivery. The menu includes appetizers, kids items, entrees with traditional barbecue fare, and even catering – just like Lakeville. “It’s a great location,â€? Wheeler said, pointing to the university’s Carlson School of Management standing less than two blocks away. “We’ll be open later, we’ll offer delivery to all the students who want barbecue instead of pizza. ‌ This location could be bigger than Lakeville.â€? And he got the restaurant for a steal, Wheeler said. “I was down here looking for a piece of equipment for the Lakeville location and I saw a sign – for sale by owner,â€? Wheeler said. “So I called.â€? That was in April. By July, Wheeler was negotiation a lease with the property owner. Wheeler wouldn’t say what his rent was but admitted that Baldy’s is in the building “pretty minimally.â€? “It was an old Chinese restaurant. It didn’t fail, but the owner retired. So I took it as is. Spent 211 man hours cleaning it up with some of my employees,â€? Wheeler said. The key to success in Lakeville, he said, will also be the key in Minneapolis – keeping costs down. “All those restaurants that fail – well, they all buy new stuff. New equipment, new booths, new this, new that,â€? he said. “I buy all those failed restaurants’

stuff for nickels on the dollar.� If the Baldy’s Minneapolis location fails, the only thing Wheeler said he’s on the hook for is the sign out front. “I’m the stingiest person in the world with our money. We have a goal in mind and don’t do it unless we can do it,� Wheeler said. Wheeler is staffing the Minneapolis location with four Lakeville veterans and a group of local workers, he said. “It’s a totally different crowd down here, but the vibe is big. People are stopping by and knocking on the door all the time,� he said. “With the U of M, Augsburg and (Fairview Riverside Hospital) all within blocks of the place, there is a lot of word-of-mouth already.� And having left a good and memorable mark in Lakeville, Wheeler is trying to do the same thing in the big city. “I guess I don’t care what others think about me, you know?� he said. “But now, if I can give someone down on their luck a job pulling pork, well, that’s a good thing for me. That makes me feel good.� Siegel said independent restaurant owners like Wheeler have an opening in the market because chains have stopped opening new restaurants because of the recession. “Combine that with being active in the community, getting good word-of-mouth, and having a good plan, and success isn’t so surprising,� Siegel said. And after a year without alcohol sales in Lakeville, Wheeler has that now, too. The Lakeville City Council, after seeing Wheeler and his partner, Sonny Mann, in action for a year, granted a smaller, 3.2 liquor license to Baldy’s BBQ in July. It allows Wheeler to sell beer and wine to barbecue customers. “Not that it matters much,� Wheeler said. “That has been a big surprise. I thought people wouldn’t want to eat at Baldy’s if we couldn’t offer beer. I was way wrong.� Wheeler said Lakeville’s Baldy’s location is only selling 15 to 20 beers a day. “It shows that if you’ve got good food, people will come,� Wheeler said.

Dakota County

Farmington Rotary hosts second annual Rocktoberfest on Sept. 25 THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Rocktoberfest 2010 will feature 80s hair band Great White on Saturday, Sept. 25, at the Dakota County Fairgrounds in Farmington. The Farmington Rotary Club is hosting the event, with headliner Great White set to take the stage at 9 p.m., and 80s rock band Border Patrol opening at 7 p.m. “If you are a fan of those 80s hair bands, it should be fun,� said Lisa Dargis, Farmington Rotary Club vice president. The public can buy discounted tickets early from a Farmington Rotarian or online at www.rocktoberfestrocks. com.

The Rocktoberfest party begins at 5 p.m. with food, beer and polka music from Carol and the Country Dutchman. The first Rocktoberfest in 2009 saw 80s rock band Hairball perform outdoors in cold and rainy weather. Organizers decided to bring Rocktoberfest indoors this year. “We are still looking for volunteers because it’s a pretty big event,� said Dargis. Since Jack Russell, the lead singer of Great White, has taken ill, Dargis said he is being replaced by the former lead singer Jani Lane of the band Warrant. “Fans will be able to hear songs from Great White and Warrant,� Dargis said. Free parking will be offered. The audience target range is 16

years and older. “This is our only fundraiser that supports all of our activities,� Dargis said. Annual local charity events include serving a holiday luncheon at the Rambling River Center, scholarships for students, and Armful of Love where the Rotary Club adopts five families during the holidays. Free bus transportation to and from Rocktoberfest will be provided by Marschall Lines Inc. in Farmington. For pick up times and routes in Farmington, Lakeville and Rosemount, visit www.farmingtonrotarymn.com. Kara Hildreth is at farmington.thisweek@ecm-inc.com.
