Arrest made in pregnant woman’s death The Eagan Police Department arrested a 23-year-old Brooklyn Park man following the death of a pregnant woman Tuesday afternoon in Eagan. Officers responded to a call at 2:53 p.m. from 3149 Alden Pond Lane and found Senicha Marie Lessman, 25, of Eagan, unresponsive, according to the Eagan Police Department. Police officers along with Eagan Fire and Health East paramedics attempted life saving measures, but Lessman was pronounced dead at the scene. The initial investigation revealed Lessman had been subjected to trauma and was 32 weeks pregnant. Detectives believed

the death was due to a homicide. The fetus also died as a result of the homicide. The Brooklyn Park man was arrested in Mounds View, according to Dakota County Jail records. It is believed Lessman and the individual arrested were involved in a relationship at the time, according to the police. The man has not been charged with a crime, but he is in police custody and was booked into Dakota County Jail at 2:47 a.m. Wednesday on suspicion of first-degree murder premeditated and first-degree murder of an unborn child. An autopsy will be conducted for Lessman’s body and fetus at the Hennepin County Medical Examin-

er’s office to determine the cause of death. In a written statement to the press, Lessman’s mother, Margi Lessman, said: “We are devastated at the tragic death of my daughter Senicha and her unborn son. She was a loving, kind, smart and beautiful young woman who was very excited to be a mother. She was loved greatly by all of her family, friends and coworkers. We will miss her more than words can say. We are asking for privacy while our family grieves during this difficult time.” Eagan police reported they are not looking for additional suspects in connection to the case. — Andy Rogers

Her father was an “abusive, transient alcoholic,” Meehan said. “My mom left him when I was 7, but he lived down the road from us in Illinois and he did eventually drink himself to death,” she said. After a house fire when Meehan was 11, she and four of the children came to Crystal to live with their mother’s sister.

Business is looking up for speaker, author and life coach Annie Meehan. Based on current bookings, she expects four times more speaking engagements this year than in 2016. Things always seem to be looking up for Meehan, perhaps because she fell so far during her turbulent, precarious upbringing. Or maybe it’s because she always found a way to force her sights higher. For that she credits God, family and Oprah Winfrey. Last year Meehan, of Burnsville, published “Be the Exception: Your 7 Steps to Transformation,” and later a Bible study companion guide to the book.

Town hall arsonist sentenced Supreme Court says sheriff can collect DNA to 58 months in prison Dakota County to resume its process for serious crimes

by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

the Minnesota Supreme Court. The sheriff requested that the Supreme Court issue the writ to prohibit enforcement of the district court order that precluded the collection of DNA. In 2015, the Sheriff’s Department began taking DNA samples under Minnesota law from individuals arrested and charged with certain enumerated serious offenses after a court makes a probable cause determination. The law with regard to collecting DNA samples requires some law enforcement agencies to collect DNA for those who have appeared in court and have probable cause for committing the offenses of murder, manslaughter, assault, robbery, aggravated robbery, kidnapping, false imprisonment, criminal sexual conduct, incest, burglary, or indecent exposure. Leslie and Dakota County Attorney James Backstrom said in an October 2016 release that Dakota County started collecting DNA in 2015 after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Maryland vs. King that such DNA collection was constitutional under the Fourth Amendment. Backstrom said at the time that he said the statute reviewed in the U.S. Supreme Court case was substantially similar to the Minnesota law, which was created in 2005. He issued a legal memorandum on June 10, 2015, that concluded the King decision overruled a 2006 Minnesota Court of Appeals decision that said the state’s DNA collection law was unconstitutional.

The Minnesota Supreme Court ruled on Jan. 11 in favor of the Dakota County Sheriff’s Office when it determined that the department could resume its practice of taking DNA samples from individuals arrested for certain serious crimes. The court issued a writ of prohibition that overturned a district court action in January 2016 that prevented Dakota County from collecting DNA samples — a practice the department started in 2015. “This is a good development for public safety in Dakota County,� Sheriff Tim Leslie said in a press release. “We were the first and only sheriff’s office in Minnesota to once again begin the collection of DNA samples. We believed it was the right thing to do then and it’s still the right thing to do. This is an important law which aids in the identification of individuals arrested for serious felonies who are housed within the Dakota County Jail and helps protect the safety of our communities.� During the case against John David Emerson, then 68 of Rosemount, who was charged with second-degree assault after a road rage incident on Jan. 15, 2016, probable cause was determined, which would have allowed the Sheriff’s Office to collect the DNA under Minnesota Statutes Section 299C.105. Emerson’s attorney claimed the DNA collection was unconstitutional, and the Dakota County District Court judge issued an order to prohibit the DNA collection.

Sheriff’s office launches Books to the Rescue program The Dakota County Sheriff’s Office recently partnered with the Books to the Rescue support service program to provide children’s books and stuffed animals to be distributed when needed to comfort a child who has been involved in an accident or crisis situation. The sheriff’s office received six bags of items from the program on Jan. 18. “Our deputies continue to encounter children and families in crisis and can use Books to the Rescue to specifically help calm children who are facing a challenging circumstance. Resources like this, provided by the community,

give us another tool to help children and families. We are grateful and appreciate the generosity and support we get from the Dakota County residents each and every day,� said Dakota County Sheriff Tim Leslie. Tami Zvolena, Books to the Rescue coordinator for Dakota County, said the program is off to a great start, but there are more bags to fill for local first responders in the county. To learn more about the program, contact Zvolena at info@twincitiesbttr. org or visit www.twincitiesbttr.org.

Wynn Donald Arvidson, 51, of Prior Lake, was sentenced last week to 58 months in prison by Judge Karen Asphaug in connection with a fire that damaged the Historic Eagan Town Hall in 2013, according to Dakota County Attorney James Backstrom. He was also sentenced to pay $413,027 in restitution, which includes $286,395 to Eagan, $21,895 to Eagan Fire and $104,736 to the League of Minnesota Cities. Arvidson pleaded guilty to one count of arson in the first degree in October. Arvidson’s co-defendant and brother Michael Damron, also known as Wade Arvidson, 53, of

Prior Lake, received 84 months in prison last year. “We are pleased to hold both of these defendants accountable for this premeditated crime of violence that caused significant damage to Eagan’s Historic City Hall,� Backstrom said in a release. Backstrom praised Assistant County Attorney Jennifer Bovitz, who prosecuted this case. Backstrom also thanked the Eagan Police and Fire Departments for their hard work on this case. According to the criminal complaint, the brothers were upset about a prior conviction from 2006 involving property thefts valued in excess of $250,000 from Eagan, Inver Grove Heights, Sha-

kopee, Savage, Burnsville, Lakeville, Elko, Prior Lake and Le Sueur County. The brothers unsuccessfully sued Eagan and Inver Grove Heights for $12 million because they felt the police had taken items belonging to them during the investigation. While investigating the arson in 2013, law enforcement found a fresh pile of feces, which matched Arvidson’s DNA. A search of Arvidson’s residence revealed an extensive home surveillance system, which show Damron and Arvidson leaving their residence during the time of the arson, practicing lighting fires and discussing the arson. - Andy Rogers

Burnsville cop reportedly exchanged racist texts A Burnsville police officer reportedly testified Tuesday that he exchanged racist texts with a Lakeville man on trial for felony assault and riot charges in the Nov. 23, 2015, shooting of five Black Lives Matter protesters. According to the Star Tribune, the exchanges were between officer Brett Levin and Allen “Lance� Scarsella, 24, who allegedly fired eight shots into the crowd at a Minneapolis protest, injuring five African-American men. The Star Tribune reported Tuesday that Levin said he had been friends with Scarsella since high school. Levin said that in 2015, Scarsella fre-

quently sent him “racially charged� text messages that were “negative about black people,� the paper reported. Asked if he replied with similar texts, Levin said he has, the paper reported. “How we were talking was more along the lines of locker room talk,� Levin reportedly testified. The Star Tribune reported that Levin declined to comment after his testimony. It said Burnsville Police Chief Eric Gieseke said it would be inappropriate to comment on testimony in a pending case. Levin has been with the department since May and has no formal complaints against him, Gieseke re-

portedly said. Levin had been with the Mankato Police Department. The protest at an encampment outside a Minneapolis police precinct followed the police shooting death of Jamar Clark, an unarmed black man. Scarsella’s defense team is arguing that he shot in self-defense against an onrushing group of protesters, the Star Tribune reported. Three other men who were with Scarsella that night are charged with second-degree riot and aiding an offender. They include Joseph Backman, 28, of Eagan. — John Gessner

Opinion Considering possibilities of the new year by Don Heinzman SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

So, what can we look for in 2017 in the Twin Cities metro area and the state? Many Minnesotans are on the Donald Trump bandwagon as evidenced by the surprisingly close vote in the presidential election. Legislators at all levels will try to figure out why Minnesotans are so upset and divided in a state that enjoys a state surplus and low unemployment. Republicans took over the state House and the Senate, and that portends a contentious 2017 Minnesota legislative session. A lot will depend on the policies and decisions of the new Trump administration, since certain governmental aids are vital to the state’s interests. Of critical importance will be the federal aid to health care through the Affordable Care Act. It has provided

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Don Heinzman record health insurance to Minnesotans and more health care by expanding eligibility for Medicaid. If Obamacare is repealed, which won’t happen overnight, MNsure insurers will not be able to offer tax credits to reduce health insurance premiums. A Republican-dominated Minnesota Legislature will aim to either eliminate MNsure or reduce its power, going against the governor who favors repairing but not eliminating it. Lost in the debate over the merits of MNsure is the fact that health insurance companies are increasing rates to

keep up with the rising costs of private health care providers. Those costs will continue to rise next year. The state’s costly human resource expenses will likely increase, primarily to address health care for the growing number of elderly who are living longer. There is hope a Republican Legislature will continue to see the importance of this department. This legislative session may be testy, as Gov. Mark Dayton battles with feisty Republicans who are anxious to unravel some of Dayton’s initiatives, particularly on health care and how to spend the budget surplus. Certainly the two sides will do something to fund fixing roads and bridges. Because of the political battle between Republicans and the governor, Dayton may not get his proposed expansion of a prekindergarten program, even though research is clear on how this program benefits children who can learn at an earlier age.

There will be changes in how prisoners are treated in the state’s prisons, as exposed by the media. Likewise, there will be increased funding so patients have better treatment in the state’s mental health hospitals. Look for some wrangling over the Metropolitan Council’s powers and the controversial metro transportation tax; and with a Republican-controlled Legislature, those powers, particularly how the council is appointed, could be changed. The council, however, has stood the test of time and there is no public clamor to change it. Looking into the 2017 crystal ball, if the public settles down it will discover that the country is not going to pieces. This year could be better than it may first appear.

Don’t fear the impact of Real ID legislation by Peter Nelson SPECIAL TO SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

I must admit I took pride in the fact that Minnesota was among the last holdouts in passing a seat belt requirement when the federal government demanded states pass such a law or risk losing federal transportation dollars. Likewise, I must admit to taking some pride in Minnesota being among the last holdouts for passing Real ID. State sovereignty is regularly undermined by federal laws that legislate on matters traditionally within the sphere of state power. Indeed, federal officials too often forget that the 10th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution reserves the powers to the states that are not specifically delegated to the federal government by the Constitution. So, it’s always refreshing to see a state push back against federal overreach. All that said, it’s time for Minnesota to pass Real ID legislation. In response to the 9/11 terror attacks, the federal government passed the Real ID Act in 2005 to improve security of airline travel and access to federal buildings by establishing stricter verification and security measures for IDs used to access these facilities. Because state driver’s licenses are now used for such purposes, the law requires

Guest Columnist

Peter Nelson state driver’s licenses to comply with the stricter standards if a state wants to enable their residents to use their licenses to fly and enter federal facilities. Currently, there’s push back coming from both the left and right against Minnesota complying with Real ID. The left worries about how Real ID will impact undocumented immigrants access to a driver’s license. From the right, Real ID is an unconstitutional mandate outside the federal government’s enumerated federal powers that creates a national ID with serious impacts on privacy. The left’s argument doesn’t appear to hold water. According to the Star Tribune editorial board, “A state administrative rule now bans issuing driver’s licenses to undocumented immigrants. The House Real ID bill would put that ban in statute, so that legislative action would be required to remove it.” Thus, the bill doesn’t change anything. It just requires future legislative action to make any change to the ad-

ministrative rule, which should have been a requirement to granting licenses to undocumented immigrants in the first place. Constitutional objections also don’t hold water. Real ID is of a different character from other federal intrusions into the affairs of state governments. This does not involve the federal government bribing states to pass a law or risk losing federal funds and it is not the federal government simply taking over an area of traditional state concern. Instead, Real ID is law that regulates access to federal facilities and interstate commerce. While the U.S. Constitution’s Commerce Clause has long been abused to justify federal overreach — starting with the U.S. Supreme Court’s approval of federal regulation of wheat production in Wickard v. Filburn in 1942 — the regulation of air travel between the states is a clear example of the interstate commerce that the federal government is empowered to regulate under the Constitution. Imagine multiple states requiring varying types of IDs for air travel. Compliance would be maddening for U.S. citizens. Privacy is the most reasonable objection. Without getting into the nuances of the privacy argument, the Real ID legislation moving through the Minne-

sota House and the Senate creates two tracks of driver’s licenses — one that complies with Real ID and one that does not. Thus, anyone with privacy concerns can opt out. This is an entirely reasonable compromise. Whatever you might think of the privacy problems with a national ID, the Real ID Act is the law of the land and well within the constitutional powers of the federal government. As such, privacy concerns should be taken to Minnesota’s federal delegation. The state’s implementation of Real ID is really about guaranteeing convenient air travel for Minnesota residents. The federal government is not mandating the state do anything. It’s just saying Minnesota driver’s licenses won’t be valid for air travel in 2018. Not complying with Real ID will require any Minnesotan that wants to fly to get a special federal ID. It also risks imposing severe confusion on travelers when they try to fly and either forget their federal ID or never got one in the first place. To help Minnesota travelers, it’s now past time for state lawmakers to pass Real ID. Peter Nelson is vice president and senior policy fellow at Center of the American Experiment.

Letters This is not normal To the editor: Several disturbing events have taken place surrounding and in the wake of President Donald Trump’s inauguration. A group of eight people, two French nationals and six Canadians, were denied entry into the U.S. when they revealed that their intent was to attend the Women’s March in Washington, D.C., on Saturday. Border agents said that attending the march was not a valid reason to enter the United States. The Canadians were told they would be arrested if they tried again to cross during the weekend, and the two French citizens were told that they would be required to apply for a

visa for any future visit to the US. France is a member of the Visa Waiver Program, which allows French citizens to enter the U.S. without a visa unless there is a pretty good reason not to allow them entry. Even if turning them away on this instance were justified (a claim that is debatable), requiring them to obtain a visa in the future because they had once tried to cross the border to attend a lawful protest is ludicrous. Six journalists were charged with felonies for covering the inauguration protests. They are facing a $25,000 fine and up to 10 years in prison if convicted. After the National Park Service re-tweeted photos of the small inauguration crowd, the Trump administration temporarily sus-

pended the agency’s Twitter privileges, and imposed restrictions as to what could be posted on its official social media outlets. The Trump administration has instructed the Environmental Protection agency to suspend its contract and grant programs, as well as all outgoing communication, immediately and until further notice. These things are indicative of isolationism and an attempt to control the press, both of which are detrimental to a free and democratic society in a world that gets smaller with each technological advance. This is not normal. AMBER BATHKE Apple Valley

Let your voices be heard To the editor: I have never written to the editor in my 8-plus years as a Lakeville resident and father of three children who are very active in the Lakeville Area School District, but after receiving the newspaper in my mailbox I feel obligated to write. I sent same letter to the school district. On the front page in the top three stories we have: 1. Want more money because we can’t manage well and need a third levy. Really! 2. Hiring a search firm to find a superintendent when we just hired an external candidate that didn’t stay. How about looking at the three to five internal candidates we have and just go inside and save the money. Proven performers at no cost to find. 3. And most appalling is a school board that can’t get along, nor make decisions, and now we want to hire a mediator to resolve the issues. I would expect that from my 9-year-old, but not grown adults who have one mission within our schools. This really is embarrassing. As a business leader who is responsible for 1,000-plus employees, I have to say how utterly disappointing this is. In the business world we would make serious leadership changes with this type of behavior. Certainly in the great Lakeville community we deserve much better performance. I was a quiet supporter, but I will now become an avid spokesman against this and the current leadership. And will be an avid supporter of removing School Board members in the next election.

Lakeville soldier’s hit-andrun death may go to trial Farmington man charged has long criminal history SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A Farmington man with a long history of criminal convictions will appear in Scott County court Jan. 31 to face charges in the hit-and-run death of a 24-year-old Lakeville soldier last year. Matthew Keely Hartley, 33, has been held in the Scott County Jail on $500,000 bail since his arrest last year on three felony counts of criminal vehicular homicide. At Monday’s hearing, Hartley could accept a plea offer or choose to go to trial, which would start Feb. 6, according to court records. Mollie Mahowald of Lakeville died Sept. 25 in Elko New Market after being struck by a motorcyclist that witnesses reported was one of two who were racing while Mahowald and friends were walking down the street.

lice records state the driver did not stop at the scene, and continued racing after another motorcyclist who had a female passenger. The motorcyclists reportedly passed police on the way to assist Mahowald, 24. Life-saving measures were unsuccessful and Mahowald died on the scene, where she was with friends and her youngest sister. After the incident, one of Hartley’s friends told police Hartley had called him asking for help bringing a motorcycle home because he had crashed it, according to police records. Elko New Market police reported they found the dirty and damaged motorcycle on property where Hartley was living hidden under a canoe. A Scott County criminal complaint stated Hartley’s driver’s license had been revoked at the time of the crash. It stated he

had been convicted of a DWI in July 2016 and had another DWI charge pending. Court records show Hartley has been charged over 50 previous times with convictions or guilty pleas on offenses that include domestic abuse, violating probation and no-contact orders, DWI, driving after suspension, burglary, terroristic threats, obscene or harassing phone calls, financial transaction fraud and check forgery and theft. Mahowald served as a U.S. Army mechanic while on tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. She returned home late last year, joined the Army National Guard and was attending college to become a veterinary technician. She is buried at Ft. Snelling National Cemetery.

Eagan author publishes ‘Danny’s Boy’

tifically plausible. Once she picked it back up, the story wrote it self. The premise and key plot points were always there, but sometimes she would come up with a unique twist that would surprise her. Inspiration came from many places. Her mother grew up on a farm and Rossin has worked near the University of Minnesota campus for years. Her favorite authors are Edgar Allan Poe and Stephen King, and she loves Alfred Hitchcock movies. “My book is not horror, but there’s a little bit of plausibility that it could really happen,” Rossin said. She’s worked in technical writing in the past, which helped her in researching and writing the scientific aspects of the book. After submitting her book to a few agencies without much success, she ended up publishing the book on her own. “I think it’s an enjoyable book and it has merit,” Rossin said. “But getting that foot in the door was a real challenge. I decided I wanted it out there.” Since it was published, the book received positive reviews on Amazon from people she didn’t know, which was extremely gratifying. “To hear they’re intrigued and it’s a page-turner, it’s always nice to hear,” Rossin said. She said the “Danny’s Boy” works as a single story with a satisfying ending, but she’s also currently working on book two. “It’s a continuation of Danny’s story,” Rossin said. “I’m just drawn to these characters. It’s going to be titled ‘Danny’s Revenge.’ ” The paperback and e-book version are available on Amazon.com, and the ebook is available via Apple iTunes. More information about Rossin and her book can be found at www.dannysboy.com.

You never know what you’ll find when you move. When Laurie Rossin was going through old boxes while moving a few years ago, she came across about 100 pages of a book she started in the 1990s. The Eagan wife, mother and grandmother has a little more time on her hands now that she’s semi-retired, so she finish her first book, “Danny’s Boy,” a medial thriller, which was self-published last summer. The first words came to her in 1996 when scientists where cloning sheep. “Everyone heard about Dolly the sheep and all this controversy about cloning back then,” Rossin said. “I thought, what would happen if there was a human clone, so I started a book. But I got busy with my career and life.” She completely set it aside until she opened that box a few years ago. Her book tells the story of a young woman, Danielle O’Neil, from rural Iowa who attends the University of Minnesota to study journalism. There she he meets the hand- Laurie some Dr. Nicholas Goodman, Rossin a scientist developing stem cell therapy to cure devastating diseases. O’Neil’s life is turned upside down when she becomes pregnant with Goodman’s child, who is no ordinary child. “It’s hard for me to know how much to tell people about the story,” Rossin said. “So much is supposed to be a surprise for the reader.” The story blends romance, loss and love with science, medical ethics and moral dilemmas. “It’s a story about an everyday person who finds herself in an unusual situation and has to find way to cope with it,” Rossin said. The technology of cloning has evolved Andy Rogers a bit since 1996, so Rossin had to do a bit Email more research to make sure it was scien- andy.rogers@ecm-inc.com.

members, including Superintendent Lisa Snyder, worked hard in sometimes heated discussions to create the recommendations. School Board members noted at their Jan. 24 meeting the elementary school crowding issues could be temporarily addressed by boundary changes. Board Member Bob Erickson noted the building costs do not include added expenses for staffing. “It has to be staffed,� Erickson said, noting that the district could expand an existing elementary school to address needs in the interim, while continuing to monitor growth to ensure the district can justify the expense for a new elementary. “That’s one of the reasons for the boundary and funding committees is to take a look if you adjust the boundaries for capacity additions, you may find short-term solutions that allow you to not have an elementary school for several years,� Dierks said. Board Member Jim Skelly, who had promoted the creation of a 10year plan, said the plan provides options for consideration and includes phases that provide flexibility. Michael Baumann, District 194 executive director of business services, said the district will regularly refine building capacity projections. “It’s a dynamic environment, not static,� Baumann said. “So we have to be agile with that.�

Six years after transforming Crystal Lake Elementary into an early-childhood center, a Lakeville Area School District 194 committee is recommending the district build a ninth elementary school, citing space concerns for grades K-5. The committee ranked the new elementary school among its highest priority projects, to be built within four years, located on a yetto-be-determined site and estimated construction costs at $30 million to $32 million. It noted the district’s elementary school buildings are facing capacity issues that are boundary-related, but based on data that included enrollment projections, the committee determined capacity pressures at elementary schools will continue beyond the 600-700 student perbuilding maximum. Committee members also recommended the district establish boundary, site and funding committees to begin the elementary school building process. Other short-term priorities, estimated to be needed within the next four years, include building security enhancements, new gymnasium space at McGuire Middle School and Impact Academy at Orchard Lake, new turf at both high schools, two new practice fields and repair of playgrounds at five elementary schools. The committee also concluded there is inequity among pools and swimming programs at the district’s three middle schools.

It offered two options to address the discrepancy: either fix the pools at McGuire and Kenwood middle schools or the preferred recommendation is to build a new competition pool at Century Middle School, which does not have a pool. Short-term priorities identified are estimated to approximately cost between $52.2 million and $56.9 million, although a building site was not included in the estimates. Priorities for the next five to six years include transforming media centers and creating flexible personalized learning spaces and replacing furniture. Long-term priorities, identified as needs for the next seven to 10 years include addressing a work space shortage at the District Office along with restrooms and meeting spaces. Vaughn Dierks, a partner with the district’s consultant, Wold Architects, who presented the committee’s recommendations said members anticipated and themselves questioned the 2011 decision to close Crystal Lake Elementary and now build another elementary school. Dierks said many factors led to the decision that included enrollment, operations and leased space. He said the district has also changed, as have its needs, and the plan addresses the changes to reflect the district’s Strategic Plan goals that include the move toward personalized learning.

Issues surrounding a potential $1.6 million land sale bookended the Jan. 24 Lakeville Area School Board meeting. District 194 School Board members listened to multiple residents’ concerns during public comment about “closed-door� conversations regarding terms of the sale, then the members responded by unanimously voting to open what had been on the end of the agenda as a closed session to discuss the land sale. The board’s efforts toward sunlight were darkened by meeting’s end, when after repeatedly leaving the board room to confer with the district’s consultant, commercial Realtor Bruce Rydeen with Cerron Commercial Properties, Superintendent Lisa Snyder announced another party had objected to openmeeting discussions about the land sale. Michael Baumann, District 194 executive director of administrative services, later told Sun Thisweek the party objecting was Post Consumer Brands, which owns land adjacent the 25-acre property off 210th Street. Post’s headquarters are newly located adjacent to the property, and the company was the opposition’s hero in November when it halted the project by invoking terms of a 1995 covenant agreement attached to the property. The covenant prohibits residential development on the property for 30

years — a provision that was invoked hours before a meeting Summit Development owner Louis Olsen had arranged with neighbors. The meeting was cancelled an hour prior to its start. During public comment, residents referred to a proposal by Post for a nine-acre buffer that was to be discussed during closed session. Several School Board members said they did not have any documents regarding the proposal and knew nothing about it. Resident Chad Baker said Post has appeared to reverse its public statement to enforce the covenant and maintain the land as commercial. He said Post has requested acreage in exchange for their cooperation and the buyer is seeking a discounted price. “Why are you even considering this when the public’s been told repeatedly you don’t need to sell this land?� Baker asked. He was critical of the proposal, describing it as giving away 30 percent of the land to a corporation and selling to a developer at a discount. Several other residents spoke against the proposal, prompting School Board Member Terry Lind to say he knew nothing about it. Resident Jeremy Hjelm questioned the process of the land sale and the “persistence� of the School Board to pursue the sale, describing the situation as a “river of deception.� He questioned “whispering in corners before and during meetings,�

closed-door meetings, misinformation, “emergency holiday weekend work sessions to devise 11th-hour (purchase agreement) extensions� and the last-minute cancellation of a neighborhood meeting. Action regarding the proposed townhome development stalled late last year, and the purchase agreement was set to expire, but School Board Chair Michelle Volk said in an interview she authorized Baumann to grant an extension for the contract to Jan. 31. “Mr. Baumann is our representative and he has all the authority to do that,� Volk said. “I told him he could and I wrote the board a note saying the same thing. Everybody knew.� Board members Judy Keliher and Kathy Lewis proposed not discussing the land sale in a closed meeting, and although the board ultimately agreed, several members said they knew less than what the residents did about what they would be discussing. “My concern is I don’t know what the closed session is for,� Lind said. “I have no idea. I’m hearing from the audience that somebody wants some property or a trade for a yes vote or whatever might be. I don’t know. I don’t know anything regarding this closed session, so I’m not sure if I can support it because I don’t know what it’s about.� Board Member Jim Skelly agreed, stating the board had not background materials. “The board doesn’t

know what is going to be presented,� he said. Board Member Bob Erickson said the board has not been “privy� to what was to be presented. Baumann said the discussion was to discuss an amendment to the purchase agreement that would change the price and the amount of land sold. He said in an email to Sun Thisweek he had responded to public inquiries about the land sale by phone, in-person and by email throughout the process. “I have responded as I consider I am obligated to do so as a public official,� Baumann said. “The questions started immediately after the City Council meeting (last year). The last inquiries came when the (purchase agreement) extension issue arose.� During the meeting, a question Erickson posed to Baumann highlighted another issue not previously publicly reported regarding an “encroachment� on the property. Baumann said Post has a pipe draining onto district property, and described it as “an issue� the district has raised with the company. After Post objected to discussing the issues in an open meeting, the board agreed to table discussion until its Jan. 31 open meeting work session at 6 p.m. at the Crystal Lake Education Center.

Guest at temporary homeless shelter facing sex charge by Andrew Miller SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A male guest at the temporary homeless shelter hosted by Apple Valley’s Grace Lutheran Church in December has been charged with criminal sexual conduct in connection with an incident there. According to the criminal complaint, Mark D. Frederickson, 54, allegedly approached two women who had gone outside the church to have a cigarette the night of Dec. 16 and engaged in nonconsensual, inappropriate touching with one of them. The other woman alleged Frederickson had made a lewd gesture and said he wanted to “goose� her. The two women reported the incident to Apple Valley police, and Frederickson was arrested at 8:20 p.m. that night and booked into the Dakota County Jail. As a result of the incident, a police officer was stationed outside the church, 24 hours a day, for the remainder of the Dakota Adult Shelter Project’s occupancy at the church. “We had some serious safety concerns, and I think the presence of an officer helped

calm things,� Apple Valley Police Chief Jon Rechtzigel said. The Dakota Adult Shelter Project, a coalition of southmetro faith communities, homelessness advocates and Dakota County Social Services workers, ran temporary homeless shelters at multiple churches in the county in midto late December as the area experienced dangerously cold weather. The shelter was at Grace Lutheran Dec. 15-18, then moved to Prince of Peace Lutheran Church Dec. 19, followed by occupancy at Apple Valley’s Spirit of Life Presbyterian Church Dec. 23-26. Apple Valley police also stationed an officer at Spirit of Life during the homeless shelter’s intake process. Rechtzigel said the cost to station an officer outside Grace Lutheran for the duration of the homeless shelter’s time there was about $3,900, all of which was footed by the city. Spirit of Life contributed funds to defray the cost of the officer at that site. The Dakota Adult Shelter Project has announced plans to find a long-term site to shelter the homeless and is looking at churches and other

buildings in northern Dakota County. Rechtzigel said the alleged sexual misconduct at Grace Lutheran underscores the public-safety issues that would come with a homeless shelter operating in the area. “Running a homeless shelter can be problematic because you draw people from all over the metro and some of them have criminal backgrounds, addiction issues and/ or mental illness,� he said in an email. “This poses a public safety concern and can have a negative impact on the community.� Frederickson, who has been charged with grossmisdemeanor criminal sexual conduct, faces a maximum penalty of one year in jail and a $3,000 fine if convicted. His trial is set for Jan. 30 in Hastings. Frederickson’s city of residence is listed as South St. Paul on the criminal complaint. He was previously convicted of criminal sexual conduct in Ramsey County in May 2016. Email Andrew Miller at andrew.miller@ecm-inc.com.

Lakeville man allegedly stabbed family member 19-year-old charged with two felonies by Laura Adelmann SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

him in the chest before getting an eight-inch knife from the kitchen and attempting to stab his father. The father was reportedly stabbed multiple times in his hand before running outside where the mother was returning from calling police. An incident report from the Lakeville police say Bistodeau was located in a nearby neighborhood after he was heard screaming in the area. Police said Bistodeau at first refused officers’ orders and they had to fire multiple less-than-lethal rounds of rubber bullets designed to stop an assailant with less chance of fatally injuring them or innocent bystanders. Bistodeau was arrested and booked into the Dakota County Jail after police used a K-9 officer to gain his compliance. Bistodeau is also charged with misdemeanor domestic assault. Each felony charge carries a maximum penalty of up to seven years in jail and/or fines from $4,200-$14,000.

Authorities say a 911 report of a mental health crisis turned violent in Lakeville on Jan. 11 and resulted in police officers firing rubber bullets and employing a K-9 officer before arresting a knife-wielding 19-year-old Lakeville man. Adam Hunter Bistodeau, Lakeville, has been charged with two counts of felony seconddegree assault with a dangerous weapon for allegedly assaulting a family member and female friend with a knife. According to a Jan. 19 Dakota County criminal complaint, Bistodeau allegedly said he thought he was going to kill his female friend and held a pocket knife to her neck before he awoke his parents to drive the female friend home. His parents believed Bistodeau was acting like he was under the influence of a controlled substance, and the mother and the female left the residence and called 911 from a business.

Sports Four SSC schools qualify for state True Team swimming Eagan wins Section 3AA; Rosemount, Farmington, Shakopee advance as at-large teams by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Three South Suburban Conference teams will be in Saturday’s state Class AA boys True Team swimming and diving meet. Eagan, which finished third in last year’s event, earned a chance to return by winning the Section 3AA championship Jan. 21 in Apple Valley. Rosemount and Farmington received two of the four at-large spots for Saturday’s state finals at 6 p.m.

at the University of Minnesota Aquatic Center. Lake Conference powers Minnetonka, Wayzata and Edina are among the eight section champions. Minnetonka is the defending Class AA True Team champion. The field includes three of the top four teams in this week’s state Class AA rankings – Minnetonka (first), Stillwater (third) and Eagan (fourth). Rosemount, which finished third in the Section 3AA meet, was fourth in the point standings used to select at-large teams from among those that did not win section championships. Eastview, the Section 3AA runner-up, was second in those rankings but elected not to go to the state finals. That left a spot

open for Farmington, fifth in the at-large point standings and second to Rochester Mayo in the Section 1AA meet last weekend at Dodge Middle School. Farmington edged Lakeville South by 13 points for the final at-large spot. Shakopee earned its at-large spot through the Section 2AA meet. Eagan won seven of the 12 events at the Section 3AA meet for a 78-point margin over Eastview. Third-place Rosemount was 40 points behind Eastview. Eagan won all three relays, starting with a victory by Caiden Kuehn, Quenton Steffen, Colin Kehoe and Noah Baum in the 200-yard medley race. Their time was 1 minute, 43.57 seconds.

Colin Kehoe, Mike Kehoe, Baum and Jasper Appleton won the 200 freestyle relay in 1:31.57, and Kuehn, P.J. Collins, Mike Kehoe and Appleton won the 400 freestyle relay in 3:21.94. The Wildcats’ individual event winners were Appleton in the 200 freestyle (1:48.42) and 100 butterfly (53.77), Jordan Nguyen in diving (404.70 points) and Colin Kehoe in the 100 freestyle (49.62). Eastview senior Sam Pekarek won two events, the 200 individual medley in 2:00.12 and the 100 breaststroke in 59.64. Sjon Greseth and Ben Montgomery were runners-up in the 500 freestyle and 100 breaststroke. Lightning teams finished second and third in the 200 medley, and Eastview had two of the top six

teams in the 200 freestyle relay. Rosemount junior Grant Toenges won the 100 backstroke in 56.57 and was second in the 100 butterfly. Stephen Satnik was second in diving. Apple Valley finished sixth in the Section 3AA meet. The Eagles’ top finish was a fourth by Chase Brustad in the 500 freestyle. Burnsville competed in the Section 2AA meet last weekend, finishing seventh of eight teams. The Blaze’s top finishes were three 10th places. Ryan Dobrzynski took 10th in the 50 freestyle, and Burnsville was 10th in the 200 medley and 200 freestyle relays. Email Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecm-inc.com.

SSC sports: Blaze in race for hockey title Boys team plays host to Eagan on Thursday by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Lakeville North and Burnsville entered this week’s play as the top two teams in South Suburban Conference boys hockey. North leads the league at 9-1-1, followed closely by Burnsville (8-1-1) and Prior Lake (7-3). Lakeville South (6-4) and Eastview (5-4-1) also are above .500 in the league. Lakeville North, 13-2-2 overall, defeated Eastview 6-1 on Saturday as Reed Smith and Spencer Schneider scored two goals each. The Panthers play at Farmington at 7 p.m. Thursday.

Boys hoops: Eagles escape Farmington was on the verge of the boys basketball program’s biggest victory since joining the South Suburban Conference, but had it snatched away by Apple Valley star Tre Jones. Jones made a 15-foot jump shot at the buzzer to give the Eagles a 76-75 overtime victory at Farmington last Friday and keep them in first place in the South Suburban. The game matched two of the league’s leading scorers – Farmington guard Sam Wilson, second in the league with a 22.4 average, and Jones, who’s third at 21.7. Wilson had a gamehigh 31 points, while Jones scored 29. Although Apple Valley has played in some highprofile games against quality opponents, those often happened at neutral sites. Winning tough games in other teams’ gyms is still

new to many of the Eagles’ players, coach Zach Goring said. Apple Valley also won at third-ranked Lakeville North in December. “We were fortunate to leave there with a win,” Goring said. “It was a big, noisy crowd, and we were going against a team that was playing really well that night.” Apple Valley is 12-2 overall and 7-0 in the conference after beating Eagan 77-39 on Tuesday. The Eagles, who lead Lakeville North by one game in the South Suburban, will play host to Eastview at 7 p.m. Thursday.

Lakeville North senior Bailey Servais and Burnsville/Shakopee senior Jack Lindsay were individual champions at the Buck Hill Invitational Alpine skiing meet Friday in Burnsville. Servais also led Lakeville North to second place in the girls varsity team competition. Approximately 125 girls raced on Friday, and Servais’ two-run time of 50.91 seconds was more than two seconds faster than the runner-up, Chloe Townsend of Edina. Servais has the fastest time on each of the two runs. Servais’ sister, Peyton, placed ninth overall in 55.37. Stillwater placed four skiers among the top 20 individuals and won the girls team championship with a 349.22 score. That’s the combined time in seconds of the Ponies’ top six finishers. Eagan/Eastview was eighth in the girls team competition with 394.42. Sophomore Hannah Burns had a two-run time of 58.67 to place 22nd. Taylor Andrie (31st, 61.38) and Fiona Chow (37th, 62.76) led Burnsville to ninth place with 399.41. Bloomington Jefferson won the boys team championship, scoring

PARK, from 1A also been choking out the oak trees in the area, so it has to go. The total cost of the restoration projects is about $900,000, but about $660,000 comes from grants via the Minnesota Legacy funds. Dakota County recently began the process of restoring 24 acres of swamp,

oak woodland and oak savanna near Holland Lake. The area is currently being cleared out while the ground is frozen so the heavy machinery doesn’t damage the ground. The project will revive a tamarack bog, which is one of a kind in this part of Minnesota. “It’s a unique resource,” Sullivan said. “It’s the only one in Dakota County.

We’ve been losing the tamaracks.” The park can’t just replant tamarack trees that come from northern Minnesota because they can’t handle the climate in the south, so county workers clipped branches on trees within the park to replant, according to Meghan Manhatton, natural resources specialist with Dakota County.

Once the invasive species and thinning of speckled alder is complete, the conditions will be more favorable for the tamarack to regenerate. Other areas of restoration include the Star Pond Savanna expansion, where the county will remove low-quality trees and shrubs to allow a transition to higher-quality oak and aspen system.

Buckthorn and other invasive species will be removed from 136 acres around Jensen Lake and Buck Pond. About 31 acres of new prairie land, 5 acres of remnant prairie and 2.5 acres of wetland will also be restored in the area. The park also relies on several volunteers to help eliminate invasive species and help place new plants

throughout the year, and they’re always looking for more volunteers. For more information, visit www.co.dakota. mn.us/parks/Improvement.

Eagan Theater Company is presenting a novel twist on mystery dinner theater next month. In “Spontaneous Human Deduction,� it’s the audience, not the script, that determines how the plot unfolds. The show, which runs Feb. 10-11 at Lost Spur Golf and Event Center in Eagan, will have clues, a motive and a guilty party chosen by the audience, with actors doing the audience’s bidding on the spot. “It requires a cast with strong improvisational skills, as it’s only about 20 percent scripted,� said director Justin Cervantes. “The play is fresh at each performance and a lot of fun for both the audience and cast.� Set at a mansion, the play includes familiar murder-mystery characters such as a butler, maid, chef and chauf-

Dinner and a mystery in Eagan

18A January 27, 2017 SUN THISWEEK - Burnsville - Eagan

OLSON, from 1A The fox yawned, and Olson snapped. The image now hangs in the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C. Olson’s photo, “Time for a Nap,� won honorable mention in the 2016 Nature’s Best Photography Windland Smith Rice International Awards sponsored by the Smithsonian. It’s one of about 100 photos chosen from more than 20,000 entrants for an exhibition that will remain through September. Olson, who earns his living photographing real estate, wildlife and nature, said that photographic moment was unlike any he’s experienced. The profile shot of the rusty-coated fox with the white front shows her tongue framed by a row of pointed teeth, curling at the end in a perfect half-circle. The shallow depth of field from Olson’s 2.8-aperture lens creates a hazy greenish background, a canvas on which to capture the finest details of the animal’s face and mouth. “It was about 9 o’clock in the morning, so the sun hadn’t broken the treeline yet, and it was kind of fil-

tering through the conifer trees, kind of diffusing it and giving it kind of a subtle glow,� Olson said. “It was perfect — one of those opportunities I’ll probably never get again.� But it’s not his first hurrah. Olson, 30, won an honorable mention in the same competition in 2014 with a snowy owl shot called “Phantom of the Arctic.� Other honors stretch back to 2008. Olson’s love affair with wildlife started early. While growing up in Farmington, he worked at the A Wet Pet fish store in Apple Valley. At home, he bred saltwater fish and propagated coral. He chose to attend the School of Environmental Studies in Apple Valley instead of Rosemount High School. His first trip to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area was an SES outing. Olson took up photography at 16. “My grandfather gave me my first camera about two months before he passed away, and I traded in all my hunting and fishing equipment and started bringing cameras out,� he said. “I still hunt and fish, but only for sustenance, not for sport.� After graduating in 2005, Olson started digi-

tal imaging technology studies at Dakota County Technical College before earning a biology degree, with emphases in ecology and evolution, from Bemidji State University. He then completed the DCTC degree to quality for a prestigious North American Nature Photography Association scholarship, which sent him to Jacksonville, Florida, for a weeklong photojournalism conservation project. Wildlife photography “definitely became very much a way of life and an obsession over the past 12 years,� said Olson, whose awards include a pair of Bemidji Art in the Park honors from his college days. He worked for four years managing a photo printing company in Mendota Heights before becoming a full-time photographer in 2013. Olson works for Spacecrafting, a Minneapolis-based real estate photography company. His nature and wildlife clients have included the Crane Trust, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, Wolf Ridge Environmental Learning Center and Friends of the Boundary

MEEHAN, from 1A

Waters Wilderness. “I’d say about 30 percent of my income comes from wildlife photography,� said Olson, who is represented by stock photo agencies in Los Angeles and the Netherlands and also sells his work through his website, benjamin-olson.com. He has a printing and framing studio at the Burnsville home he shares with his wife, Emily, and their 11-month-old son, Louis. Olson has a busy schedule ahead. In early March he will speak on climate change in Minnesota’s boreal forests at the Nature Photography Summit in Jacksonville. A week later he’ll head to Nebraska to shoot for the Crane Trust, which works to conserve land along the central Platte River that supports sandhill cranes. This Saturday he’s leaving for a week of photographing Canada lynx and great gray owls somewhere in Minnesota’s Arrowhead Region. “A secret spot,� Olson said. “I don’t divulge locations, to keep people from harassing animals.�

had a woman — mostly because my mother was too exhausted, too unhealthy and too incapable of speaking any life or goodness into me — speak that into me, say ‘You can be anything, you can do anything.’ She’s the real deal.� Despite her obstacles, Meehan earned her GED before her high school graduation date, attended community college and, by then a 21-year-old single mom, got a receptionist job with Piper Jaffray. Over nine years with the firm she got four promotions, started making good money and met her future husband. She had three more children with Greg, became a stay-at-home mom and school volunteer in District 191 and worked for a couple of years as a “lunch lady� at district elementary schools. A decade ago, while a church volunteer who led the youth and senior ministries at Prince of Peace Lutheran in Burnsville, Meehan began fielding speaking requests after people had heard her story. She published her first book, “Paths, Detours & Possibilities: A Journal to Map Out Your Legacy� in 2013. That year she was certified as a life coach by the Learning Journals International Center of Coaching. Her longtime memoirin-progress, whose working title was “Dumpster to Dynasty,� became “Be the Exception� after a publisher heard her speak and convinced her to write the book. “I’ve overcome a lot,� Meehan said. “But first I give credit to God. And second, I’m surrounded with an amazing support system.� Her website is at anniemeehan.com.

or one or two of us out,� Meehan said. Her mother also had a hoarding problem, “and because of that, we never were able to stay too long anyplace,� Meehan said. Her mother’s hysterectomy prompted another expulsion of the kids, she said. Meehan would live with other people or sometimes take a nanny job. At one point the 17-year-old was working three jobs and supporting her younger brother while living in a single rented room. “I was always bouncing as a child,� she said. “I can’t as an adult look back and say, ‘That was my home.’ There’s no place that ever felt like a stable place or a home because we were constantly moving. At 18 I counted how many places I had lived, and I had lived 83 places in the first 18 years of my life.� Depressed and struggling with drugs and alcohol, she often wound up staying days at a time at The Bridge for Youth in Minneapolis. When “The Oprah Winfrey Show� apJohn Gessner can be reached proached The Bridge in at (952) 846-2031 or email 1986 seeking a subject for john.gessner@ecm-inc.com. a segment on teen survivors of homelessness, Meehan was recommended. She got a call from the producer. “To be honest with you, I had been using the night before, I was not feeling fabulous, I thought it was a joke, and I hung up on her,� Meehan said. Then 17, she eventually agreed to do the show with two other teen girls who, unlike her, were runaways who had been involved in prostitution. Afterwards, Oprah came backstage and shared personal stories and inspiration Meehan remembers to this day. “She really encouraged us to not let other people’s negative voices define us,� John Gessner can be reached Meehan said. “And it was at (952) 846-2031 or email really the first time I had john.gessner@ecm-inc.com.
