use the animals to curb invasive species by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Goats are coming to Eagan and they’re bringing their appetite for buckthorn with them. Goats got the official OK from the city to set up shop in residential neighborhoods to chomp away at unwanted vegetation during Tuesday’s City Council meeting. Last summer, the city received a request from a Scott Schnuckle who wanted to rent goats to graze on his property with hopes of managing invasive species.

File Photo by Andy Rogers

Goat Dispatch from Faribault was used to help clear buckthorn and other invasive species from Dakota County Parks earlier this year. Eagan approved an ordinance to allow goats to be used on residential property. Goats have been used within Dakota County Parks in recent years to

acres of steep terrain at Miesville Ravine Park Reserve last spring using a Goat Dispatch out of Fairbault. “The goats strip the bark off the trees where it’s thin enough, but the larger trees, they stay away from,� senior ecologist with Dakota County Joe Walton said last spring. “We want the oaks to stay, but we want them to get all that other stuff.� Goats like to eat smaller shrubs and trees and find buckthorn berries tasty. It’s a more environmentally sound way to curb plants such as buckthorn, without using chemicals. Goats can also access hard See GOATS, 15A

Burnsville goes for Libertarian, council member accessory home units finds her stature growing Council members cite changing housing market by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Burnsville City Council members agreed Nov. 6 to consider ordinance changes allowing accessory dwelling units on singlefamily lots. Lifting the city’s prohibition on ADUs — sometimes labeled “granny flats� where aging parents or adult children stay — would be an acknowledgment that housing demands are changing, supporters said. All five council members voiced support for permanent attached ADUs. Four of five said

they’ll consider allowing detached units on lots of an acre or more. Council Member Bill Coughlin said he’s not ready to consider detached units. The ordinance changes have yet to be drafted and reviewed by the Planning Commission, which will be sometime after Jan. 1, Community Development Director Jenni Faulkner said. The council will then vote on the changes. The council didn’t find majority backing for temporary ADUs, also known as mobile “tiny homes.� City ordinance allows them in Burnsville’s three mobile home parks. A council majority also rejected allowing temporary health care dwelling See UNITS, 15A

Schulz takes job with party’s national committee by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Cara Schulz is a Burnsville City Council member and Libertarian Party activist with growing stature in both arenas. The first-year council member’s laissez-fare attitude on property rights is a key reason the council has spent part of 2017 reconsidering its bans on short-term home rentals and accessory dwelling units. She wants to freeze city property taxes — a call not heard on the council since

Cara Schulz Burnsville’s Great Recession budget retrenchment of 2009 and 2010. While campaigning in last year’s nonpartisan city election, Schulz also served as Minnesota coordinator for the Libertarian presidential ticket of Gary

Johnson and William Weld. Now she’s carrying more water for the cause of limited government, minimal taxes and maximal personal liberty as the candidate recruiting specialist for the Libertarian National Committee. The grassroots are buzzing with would-be candidates, says the party, which aims to field 2,000 in 2018, more than double the number in recent election cycles. Schulz’s job, mostly by phone and email, is to help them from coast to coast. The national committee announced her appointment last month. “It is a full-time job.

Burnsville gives its nod to bridge replacement Lane closures expected in 2019, 2020 SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The Burnsville City Council did its part Nov. 6 to assure replacement of the Interstate 35W bridge over the Minnesota River.

The council voted to give the Minnesota Department of Transportation municipal consent to replace the 60-year-old bridge between Burnsville and Bloomington. The Bloomington council voted its consent later that evening. Funding is secured and the project is “full speed ahead,� Burnsville City

Engineer Ryan Peterson said. Federal and state money will fund the project, estimated at $130 to $150 million. Burnsville will be on the hook only for insertion of the city logo on the entrance parapets of the new bridge. “There’s going to be a Burnsville leaf and a Bloomington leaf,� said

project manager Scott Pederson of MnDOT. The bridge is reaching the end of its useful life and can no longer be widened, according to MnDOT. Burnsville Mayor Elizabeth Kautz said “structural weaknesses� have been detected. “It’s time for us to get it done,� she said. “We do not want another bridge

to collapse.� Work is scheduled to begin next July or August and finish in November 2021. The new crossing will consist of two bridges, one for northbound lanes and one for southbound, with an 8-foot separation. There will be four See BRIDGE, 15A

Burnsville OKs archery deal by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A Burnsville auto dealership will expand and the city will get a new archery range under a contract approved by the City Council Nov. 6. Needing more space for vehicle storage, Dodge of Burnsville asked to buy adjacent city land now used as a public archery range. Under the contract between the city and Adamich Family Properties LLC, the dealership — located west of Interstate 35W and Cliff Road — will pay $370,000 for the land and kick in up to $13,000 more for construction of a new archery range on unused city parkland. The new range will be built on 3.4 wooded acres

at the Kraemer Nature Preserve south of Highway 13 and Chowen Avenue South. The site is next to businesses, Sue Fischer Memorial Park and the nature preserve. Building the range will cost an estimated $383,000, according to the city. “We look at this as a win-win,� with a local business expanding and the city getting a new archery range at no cost to taxpayers, Economic Development Coordinator Skip Nienhaus said. The contract also requires Adamich Family Properties to build an access drive to the city compost site next to the current archery range. The new site meets the city’s criteria for an archery range, including size, room for a berm or safety netting

and parking for 10 to 12 vehicles. In the past 30 years the city has had its archery range in three city parks — Lac Lavon, Cliff Fen and Orchard Gardens. It was moved from each over safety concerns as park usage grew. City staff sent letters to neighboring businesses of the new site saying it was being considered for an archery range but got no responses, according to a staff report. Under the contract, construction on Dodge of Burnsville’s new storage property can’t begin until the range is built. Contact John Gessner at john.gessner@ecm-inc.com or 952-846-2031.

Five women charged in fake retail employee scam by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A group Minnesotan women are facing jail time after an alleged scheme, in which one pretended to be an employee at a retail store while others loaded up thousands on prepaid debit cards last summer in the south metro. According to one criminal complaint, police responded to a report from retail store July 18 in Eagan of a female who went to the employee area where she found an employee ID and uniform. She allegedly informed staff she was a transfer employee and said her code for the cash register was not working. Once at a register, she proceeded to check out three other females, who were suspected accomplices, who loaded prepaid debit cars, purchased merchandise and then requested cash back from the transaction. More than $8,000 was used during the transactions. Asset protection believed it was Shafonuna Fay Johnson, 21, of St. Louis Park, whom officers identified via surveillance images. Six days later, the Red Wing Police Department said Johnson was in custody along with three other women for committing a similar offense. Lacora Natasha Gooden, 33, of Apple Valley, Jaquillah Amerea Johnson, 25, of Eagan, Noemi Del Carmen Torres, 33, of Apple Valley, were charged

via summons with theft by swindle (aggregating) (over $5,000), which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years and a $20,000 fine, in Dakota County District Court last month. Shafonuna Johnson was also charged with theft by swindle. She is facing a second charge of theft by swindle (aggregating) (over $1,000 up to $5,000) for allegedly pulling a similar scheme in Lakeville in June. On June 17, Lakeville officers responded to a retail store where employees told a similar version of events when Shafonuna Johnson allegedly asked a store employee for a uniform and a cashier code to access the register, claiming to be a new employee. Shafonuna Johnson was a former employee of the store and was well known to asset protection, according to the complaint. Once she had access to the register, two other women approached as customers and she loaded two prepaid debit cards with $500 each in addition to recording other merchandise that was not registered. The women handed her cash, which she did not place in the drawer. After another transaction was declined, they exited the store. Jiwayne Chatman, 32, of Minneapolis, was also charged with felony theft by swindle in this case. The charge carries a maximum sentence of five years and a $10,000 fine.

Renewal for the expired 10-year Lakeville Area School District 2007 levy referendum has an unofficial 74 percent “yes� to 26 percent “no� advantage with only one of 20 precincts yet to report, according to results compiled by the district. Voters approving the levy request were 4,620, while those voting no were 1,472. The results will become official once the Lakeville Area School Board approves a resolution on Nov. 14. “We are so grateful for the positive outcome,� Superintendent Michael Baumann said. “Our communities are tremendous and we appreciate your

support for the children in our communities. We will continue to work hard to make the most out of the resources that communities have entrusted to us.� Renewal of the 2007 levy secures 6.3 percent of the overall budget, which translates to $692.75 per pupil in funding for the first year, totaling approximately $8 million. The funding would keep the school district’s budget where it is currently. Every dollar of the approved operating levy referendum is spread three ways: 72 cents of every dollar will go toward school allocations, 19 cents of every dollar will go toward school services and support, and 9 cents of every dollar will go to districtwide support. Since 2013, this is the fourth referenda District 194 voters have approved.

Opinion It’s time to stop equating black with bad by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Ever been “black-balled”? Not a good thing, right? Or, have you read or heard recently about too much “dark money” in politics? Or have you seen a western movie with guys in black hats? They’re almost always are “the bad guys.” Here’s are two modest proposals that come from a life-time of reading and seeing words and symbols that equate black and dark with evil and bad. First: Please consider reading or listening with your kids, grandkids or students to the brief, gentle “Dream Variation” poem by award-winning writer Langston Hughes. It’s one of the all too rare depictions of black as pleasant and positive. It’s not “anti-white.” It simply presents black as something positive. The poem ends, “Night coming tenderly, Black like me.” https://www.poemhunter. com/poem/dream-variations/ Second: Let’s consciously find other words and terms to describe things we don’t like. “Hidden” money could easily replace “dark money.” “Reject, refuse or even discriminate” is just as clear as

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Joe Nathan “black ball.” “Why bother?” some readers are thinking. Others are thinking, “There goes Joe, being ‘politically correct’.” To such people – especially if they are white like me, I’d ask, how would you feel if people constantly equated white with wrong or evil? What if “white-balled” was something that you did not want to happen to you? What if you were pretty certain that people depicted in white clothing were criminals, losers or evil? These things matter. Some readers may remember the “doll test” used in the historic U.S. Supreme Court case Brown v Board of Education. In the 1940s, psychologists Mamie and Kenneth Clark showed dolls that were identical in all but one way to children. The only difference was that some dolls were black and oth-

ers were white. Most children, black or white, identified the white dolls as more attractive. (Information here: http:// www.naacpldf.org/brown-at-60-the-dolltest) But sadly, a 2010 replication of that doll study found similar results. A CNN report quotes Margaret Beale Spencer, a University of Chicago researcher who supervised the study. She believes that this research shows that “we are still living in a society where dark things are devalued and white things are valued.” http://www.cnn.com/2010/US/05/13/ doll.study/index.html. Last month, the Annie Casey Foundation released a report comparing the status of American children and young people of various groups. The foundation used measures like percentage of high school graduation rates, percentage of young children enrolled in a “formal learning environment,” young adults ages 19-26 who are in school or working, young adults ages 25-29 who have a twoyear college degree or higher, percentage of children living at least 200 percent above poverty. As in many studies, there were signifi-

cant gaps. Compared to young people in other states, Minnesota white youngsters ranked 5th, Latinos ranked 17th, American Indian children ranked 20th, African American youngsters ranked 25th, and Asian Pacific children ranked 41st. (Recently Minnesota legislators have agreed it’s important to be more specific about the range of young people within, for example, Asian-Pacific and African American.) The report is available here: http:// www.aecf.org/resources/race-for-results/. Changing our language is only one step toward a better world. But it doesn’t require government action. It doesn’t require spending any money. It isn’t hard. But it can help. Youngsters pay attention to what we do. It’s time for us to stop equating “dark” and “black” with “undesirable” and “bad.” Joe Nathan was a Minnesota public school teacher and administrator who directs the Center for School Change.

Letters Common sense safety laws To the editor: Even rights guaranteed by the Constitution are not absolute. It is said your right to swing your fist ends at my nose. You may not falsely yell “fire” in a crowded theater. What constitutional right or public policy would be affronted by common sense safety laws embodying the following principles? Limit rifle magazine capacity to five or six rounds. This would reduce the number of deaths in mass shooting situations without interfering with recreational ownership of firearms. A reasonable magazine capacity would not stop all mass shootings. It would, quite clearly, reduce the carnage of each mass shooting. The recent mass killer in Texas expended 15, 30-round magazines; 450 rounds. If he stopped to reload after five rounds, he would have to reload 90 times in order to expend those 450 rounds. Prohibit the sale and possession of armor-piercing bullets to consumers. Prohibit the manufacture, sale or possession of “bump stocks.” There is no policy argument to be made in support of these devices. They turn a semiautomatic rifle into a machine gun. They have no other, more benign, purpose. Machine guns are rightfully restricted by law and have been for decades. Prohibit gun sales to people on the terrorist “no-fly list,” but provide a prompt, judicial remedy for those erroneously placed on the no-fly list. Prohibit gun sales to people with designated mental illnesses or violence issues in their past, but provide a prompt, judicial remedy for those erroneously denied the ability to purchase a firearm. Require a computerized

background check for all gun sales at no cost to the buyer or seller. Repeal the “occasional seller” exemption for the sale of firearms. Many occasional sellers attend gun shows every weekend to “occasionally” sell their guns for profit and still avoid the obligations of a licensed gun dealer. We no longer live in the 18th century where muskets took 30 seconds to reload. While the 2nd Amendment is, by its terms, of constitutional dimension; so is the right to life. There are no longer any absolute rights in the 21st century. If we must choose to mildly circumscribe one constitutional right, in order to secure another important constitutional right, reasonable proscriptions on the purchase and use of nonsporting firearms is preferable to continued wholesale death on a monthly basis.” DAVID E. ALBRIGHT Apple Valley

Ames Center a success? To the editor: Only the government would declare a $33,000 loss a success. One can do that when you are spending someone else’s money — in the real world Burnsville’s Ames Center would have gone belly up years ago. The reality is the 2016 loss would be $133,000, not $33,000, were it not for a kind fellow who has his name on the structure. Two companies evaluated the possibility of building a profitable 1,000-seat entertainment center in the early 2000s. Both determined it would be a loser. But that did not stop the city. Again, the decision to build a structure like the Ames Center is a lot easier when it does not need to be profitable. There is another

hidden cost which is not included when calculating the Ames Center losses — the annual property tax loss since the city owns the lot and structure. It’s hard for me to believe the Ames Center will ever be profitable when the prior losses are considered. In the words of a great American, maybe we ought to drain the Burnsville swamp.

Group homes help people in need To the editor: I am very saddened by, and take great umbrage with, Dick Sjoquist’s letter to the editor of Nov. 3 regarding group homes. I am writing from personal experience. At age 9 my daughter had surgery for a malignant brain tumor. Because of the damage of the surgery she was plagued with a myriad of physical and emotional problems in her life, which manifested itself with a severe diagnosis of bipolar disease as a young adult. After a hospitalization she was assigned to several group homes. Those homes really made a positive difference. At present, my family and I live next door to a home which has become a hospice. There is also a group home several blocks from our home. There has never been any problem, to my knowledge, with either of these facilities. My wife has been afflicted with Alzheimer’s disease for the past six years. If there comes a day in which I am unable to be her caregiver, I would welcome the help of a memory care home. The staffs of those homes are trained to meet the needs of their patients. These care homes do not

billionaires. A congressman who wants to pull this amount of money out of the Minnesota economy and move to some other states wealthy will probably not listen to the people who live here but you need to try.

CHUCK ERICKSON Burnsville

To the editor: Words cannot express the gratitude we have for all of the people who helped make Burnsville’s 2017 Halloween Fest such a great success. Nearly 1,200 kids and adults came through the door – and we wouldn’t have been able to pull it off without a lot of help. For the first time ever, the event was moved indoors due to weather. This sent a lot of people scrambling. First, thank you District 191 Community Education for graciously allowing us to use Diamondhead Education Center with little advance notice. The staff there were instrumental in the event’s success, helping out in every way possible. We can’t thank them enough for their willingness to pull together for the community. Thank you to the Burnsville Lions Club and all of the other community volunteers who helped with set-up and handing out candy and trinkets on the treat trail. And finally, thank you to our sponsors: Ebenezer Ridges Campus, The Dental Specialists, TruStone Financial, New Horizon Academy, SharePoint Credit Union and TC Orthodontics. Their donations and financial support allow us to continue to hold this great event each year.

Spelling bad news for taxpayers To the editor: How do you spell taxation without representation? LEWIS. That is our congressman U.S. Rep. Jason Lewis, and he supports a big tax increase on W-2 wage earners in the south metro district. Some numbers – 900,000 Minnesotans will see a tax increase and this will take $12 billion out of Minnesota economy. The passthrough entities which are most non-public corporations will pay a maximum of 25 percent so everyone who hasn’t been pass-through will be now. Lewis wants to further borrow at least $1.5 trillion in your name to pay for even more tax cuts for extremely wealthy and the debt increase will probably be much higher. The silver spoon (inheritance) tax for trust fund babies will go to zero. Our area in the south metro is dominated by two earner households and we will be walloped by Lewis’ tax increase on wage earners. The result of this borrowing and Minnesota tax increase will result in loss of thousands of Minnesota jobs – maybe yours. Former U.S. Rep. Tim Penny states that Lewis’ new borrowing of trillions will de-stabilize economic progress. Recession is much more likely. We better tell Lewis to not raise our taxes and borrow trillions for a poorly thought out bonanza tax cut for

Time is now to take action To the editor: A few days ago, the “Climate Science Special Report, Fourth National Climate Assessment” was released by the federal government as required by a 2001 Act. Its contributing authors and references are from NASA, NOAA, many national laboratories and universities. This thorough 470-page report includes assessments of the confidence levels for each of the findings it reports. There are three key findings that everyone should understand. First, “it is extremely likely that human influence has been the dominant cause of the observed warming since the mid-20th century. For the warming over the last century, there is no convincing alternative explanation supported by the extent of the observational evidence.” Second, the current growth in greenhouse gasses is consistent with the worst scenario outlined in the report (RCP 8.5). This includes the possibility of 9 degrees Fahrenheit and 8 feet of sea level rise by the year 2100. Third, the severity of observed effects exceeds the predictions made years ago. That is, scientific models tend to underestimate weather-related disasters. Weather disasters have cost more than $1.1 trillion since 1980, and are predicted to grow to $1 billion per day in 10 years. Much progress has been made in developing solutions. We have the technologies we need. We need the political will to change economic policies to encourage the conversion to a life-sustaining future. The alternative has never been clearer. Please join us on Sunday, Nov. 12, 1-3 p.m., at Prince of Peace Lutheran in Burnsville, to discuss the actions we can take and the roles we all can play in securing a future for our children.

Eagan wins Voice of the People Award Eagan received a national Voice of the People Award last week for excellence in public safety. The award is based on public opinion research and responses to the National Citizen Survey. Compared with all other participating jurisdictions, Eagan residents rated safety higher than national benchmarks and ratings for hundreds of other cities nationwide. The safety category includes perceptions of police and fire services, protection from danger or risk, resident and commercial area crime, animal control and emergency preparedness. According to the National Research Center, Voice of the People awards are “only given to top performing jurisdictions that best listen and act for the benefit their communities.� According to the survey, 98 percent of Eagan residents feel safe in their neighborhoods. Police and fire services, including fire and crime prevention efforts, all rank in the 90th percentile, as they have for nearly two decades now, and about nine out of 10 residents surveyed reported they had

not reported a crime in the last 12 months. “We are extremely gratified to be held in high regard by the public we serve, and among our many excellent peer cities,� said Eagan City Administrator Dave Osberg. The award application credits the level of training Eagan police officers and firefighters receive, and it notes that to keep things safe, a total of 12 new full-time fire positions and five new police officers have been proposed over the next two years. Osberg and Assistant City Administrator Dianne Miller accepted the award at the International City/ County Managers Association annual conference held last week in San Antonio, Texas. Eagan was also named a finalist in two other categories for VOP awards: Built EAnvironment and Economy. Eagan was recently named the No. 1 financially healthiest city in Minnesota, according to the Minnesota Center for Fiscal Excellence when evaluating multiple factors from debt to revenues to maintaining capital assets. In May, Eagan led the Twin Cit-

ies in multifamily residential construction, and in two out of the last three years Eagan has had 33 percent of all the new retail development in the Twin Cities. The National Citizen Survey reports resident opinion and satisfaction with local government and services with a scientific, representative sample approach. Written surveys were sent last fall to 1,500 randomly selected residents. When compared to national benchmarks, Eagan residents rated their community and its governance significantly higher on more than two-thirds of the survey items—placing Eagan “among the top 10 communities on 19 characteristics,� said NRC Vice President Michelle Koybayashi. “These results are especially impressive given that most of the jurisdictions included in the national database [of more than 400 cities] are high performing ones.� Results from the full Eagan survey can be viewed at cityofeagan. com/survey and the Voice of the People nomination videos can be seen at https://www.cityofeagan. com/voice-of-the-people-awards.

Community huddles for ‘Top Secret Project’ Dakota County Community Education series teaches adults to identify signs of teen substance use by Amy Mihelich SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Even before President Donald Trump declared the United States’ opioid crisis a “health emergency� last week, Dakota County leaders were stepping up to teach their community about the danger of substance use. Know the Truth, the substance-use prevention program of Minnesota Adult and Teen Challenge, has partnered with Steele and Dakota counties to host educational events for parents and community members. On Wednesday, Oct. 25, community members gathered at Eastview High School for “The Top Secret Project: Decoding the Mysteries of the Teen Domain.� The program, created by the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation in partnership with nine other organizations, is “committed to helping adults uncover the mysteries in the lives of teens, providing tools and resources to foster safe environments, and encouraging ongoing dialogue.� Since the Know the Truth program was established in 2006, it has reached more than 300,000 students with over 10,000 presentations in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Minnesota Adult and Teen Challenge acknowledges, however, that kids need external support. Since 2014, they’ve also been facilitating community forums aimed at educating parents. That’s what brought 162 adults to Eastview High School last Wednesday for the “Top Secret Project.� Parents, community leaders and other concerned adults from Dakota County gathered at the school at 6 p.m. They congregated in the hallway outside the auditorium where 15 organizations had set up booths informing the public about the work they do to support youths in Dakota County. “The Top Secret Project� had set up a panel display that depicted a typical teenager’s bedroom. Attendees gathered around the display to search for

the items and read about how each one could signal a teenager is using drugs or alcohol, engaging in self-harm or struggling with depression or anxiety. At 6:30 p.m., attendees made their way into the auditorium for the formal presentation. Event organizers had set up a second bedroom display on the stage, this one featuring real items rather than photos. Eastview Assistant Principal Jodi Hanson, Dakota County Attorney James Backstrom and Dakota County Sheriff Tim Leslie made introductions. Ann Lindberg-Borgen, chemical health coordinator at Henry Sibley High School, presented the majority of the information about the “Top Secret Project.� She offered a slide show of common items a teenager might have in their room. Parents learned about different kinds of drugs, how teenagers are using them and how teenagers are hiding their use from their families and friends. Lindberg-Borgen said that the message is important for all adults because even if their own children aren’t struggling with substance use, they might know another child who is. She ended her presentation with tips for parents to create a more open and structured environment in their homes.

A message for all Sam Schultz is a client in the Minnesota Adult and Teen Challenge long-term program, and he volunteers with the Know the Truth Program to help young people make informed decisions. “When I was in high school, the Know the Truth program came into my school. I heard it, and I rolled my eyes, thinking ‘that’ll never happen to me,’ � Schultz said. Now, the roles have reversed. Schultz is passionate about educating the community on the ways substance use can affect families and providing people with tools for prevention. “I want to tell people that this is serious and it can happen

Minnesota Adult and Teen Challenge partnered with Dakota County to present the “Top Secret Project: Decoding the Mysteries of the Teen Domain� at Eastview High School on Wednesday, Oct. 25. to anybody,� Schultz said. Know the Truth is a program built on evidence-based principles that works through a peerto-peer format to reach middle and high school students. “We don’t go in and say: ‘Don’t do drugs.’ We go in and say: ‘I did drugs and this is what happened,’ � said Tracee Anderson, Minnesota Adult and Teen Challenge community engagement manager. Schultz said his message is relevant to all students because drugs aren’t the only thing he talks about. “I talk about the social issues I had — like losing my identity and not being happy. I wanted to fit in with certain kids, so I lost who I was,� he said. “And that’s the stuff kids can relate with. Drugs are just a symptom of it.�

The beginning of a conversation This event was the first part of a larger conversation. The Dakota County Community Education series will continue with two free events for community leaders, parents and other

concerned adults. The first event will take place Nov. 14 at Diamondhead Education Center, 200 W. Burnsville Pkwy., Burnsville. The second will be Nov. 16 at Eastview High School, 6200 140th St. W., Apple Valley. Both events go from 6 to 8:30 p.m. For the first half hour, people will explore the interactive Know the Truth Exhibit. Attendees will search a virtual bedroom belonging to a teenager for warning signs of substance abuse. They’ll also look through a staged medicine cabinet and learn about the dangers of over-the-counter drugs. Participants will also be able to visit a model jail cell, where they will be able to sit down and imagine what it would be like to visit a loved one in jail. Know the Truth debuted this exhibit at the Minnesota State Fair, where it was well received by visitors, Anderson said. Beginning at 6:30 p.m. at both upcoming events, Know the Truth will give an hour-long presentation featuring talks by law enforcement officers, a school resource officer and a principal.

Young adults who have struggled with substance use, and parents of teens who’ve struggled, will tell their stories as well. The event will end on a hopeful note, with details about what is already being done to help local youths, and will provide attendees with some tangible skills people can take home to help the young people in their lives. A question and answer session will follow. Anderson said she hopes the event will get community members to invest in an issue that affects teens all over the county. “We are not going to give them all the information. We want them to reach out and educate themselves too,� Anderson said. “Parents are going to need to seek out information and invest in it. We hope the event gets the ball rolling for a lot of people.� People seeking more information should contact Tracee Anderson by email at tracee.anderson@mntc.org or by phone at 612-238-6546.

AREA VETERANS Give support during Military Family Appreciation Month by William Tschohl SPECIAL TO SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

This month we kick off the holiday season with an annual tradition — Thanksgiving. The holidays are all about family. November is the perfect month to celebrate a special kind of family — our military families. I encourage people to thank their friends and neighbors who are part of military families for the sacrifices they make every day in protecting the freedoms we enjoy. On Saturday, Nov. 4, many were reminded of the dedication and service performed by our National Guard members and service men and women when Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton administered the oath of office to Maj. Gen. Jon A. Jensen, of Apple Valley, as the Minnesota National Guard’s 31st adjutant general at the St. Paul Armory. Listening to those leaders speak helped others understand many of the challenges they have faced and why our support is important. The ceremony reminded the many special guests, more than 400, including military personnel why it is so important to have a tremendous leader of the Minnesota National Guard. Dayton said throughout his years of dedicated service Jensen has served in two top leadership positions as the commanding general of the 34th Red Bull Infantry Division based in Rosemount and as chief of staff at the Guard Joint Force Headquarters. Some may have forgotten, but more than 2,800 National Guard members in the Red Bull Division served in Iraq for

Guest Columnist

William Tschohl more than a year returning home in 2007. They completed 5,200 patrols, secured 24 million convoy miles and captured 400 suspected insurgents. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have highlighted the importance of our brave citizen-soldiers in the National Guard and Reserves and the sacrifices they have been called upon to make. Their families have bravely endured many burdens while their loved ones were deployed overseas. We certainly have an obligation to wrap our arms around those who served and sacrifice so much for us. On a regular basis we are seeing our National Guard members being asked to served in combat positions alongside active duty soldiers. During their time overseas, military spouses have to continue to look after their children and keep up the home and yard on their own. We need to support the Guard and Reserve members and their families so they do not suffer because of their willingness to answer the call of duty. The Minnesota Beyond the Yellow Ribbon Network, which was started in 2008 has networks in 203 locations in Minnesota. They are there to serve our brave soldiers and their families. This has resulted in help for many of our active and retired service men and women. Apple Valley chapter president Paul Chellsen has arranged for members to

serve 20 monthly free veterans dinners, and Rosemount chapter president Karl Xavier III has done much to lead the Rosemount network. Dayton recognized Farmington resident Annette Kuyper, the Minnesota director of military outreach, for her dedication to serve people as she was responsible for helping start and grow Beyond the Yellow Ribbon in Minnesota. Jensen has promised to continue to support and grow the network in the state. Dayton also recognized retiring Adj. Gen. Richard Nash for his service in that capacity from 2010 to 2017. He served 45 years in military service. The governor awarded him the Distinguished Service Medal and promoted him to lieutenant general. Nash said the state will be good hands under the leadership of Jensen. He and Jensen have enjoyed a close working relationship, which will ensure a seamless transition. He said he is proud of each and every one of our brave citizen soldiers and airmen. He said he was leaving his position knowing full well that our National Guard and the entire state has contributed greatly in a period of history that will be looked upon as a remarkably important time — we were always ready, always there. In 2018, we can expect to see over 700 National Guard members sent to Kuwait and Jordan, all in an effort to make our lives at home safer. They will deserve a warm sendoff with support for their families during their absence. Nash said Jensen was a true professional and has unparalleled leadership skills. Nash felt confident that he will lead our National Guard with a steady

hand through the uncertain times that lie ahead. In recent times Guard members have been increasingly relied upon not only for area problems, but also trouble around the world, requiring new levels of readiness. Soldiers will do the job they are trained for, and they will go to where they are deployed. The hard job is for the families and the kids they leave behind, and the challenges it causes for employees. They are the real heroes. Remember those in uniform deserve recognition and every “thank you,� too. Jensen is a 17-year resident of Apple Valley and was featured guest speaker at the Apple Valley Beyond the Yellow Ribbon Veterans dinner May 18 at the Apple Valley American Legion Post 1776. The event was the second highest attendance in the dinner series with more than 148 military members, veterans and their families in attendance. Jensen said at the time that support from our communities, American Legion posts and Yellow Ribbon Networks are very important because of continued deployments overseas. We have been so fortunate to enjoy the leadership of Nash and look forward to supporting Jensen and his 13,000 troops. We need to honor and care for all military families and veterans who have stepped up to the plate for us. I encourage everyone to join our service men and women in celebrating Military Family Appreciation Month. William H. Tschohl is a director of Apple Valley Beyond the Yellow Ribbon.

Shop local for the holiday season Special events bring shoppers to retail centers by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The holiday shopping season is upon us, and there’s no looking back. While it seems that Christmas decorations emerge earlier each year, it’s for good reason. The holiday shopping season often dictates whether a retail store will turn a profit or loss for the year. Black Friday, typically the day after Thanksgiving, earned its name since it’s seen as a day when retail locations turn profits for year, which put them in the “black.� Local businesses owned by friends and neighbors in Dakota County are no different. With increased competition both from new brick-and-mortar businesses starting in the growing south metro suburbs and competition from on-

country have realized the value that local businesses bring to provide jobs, incite economic development and provide unique products and services that they have made an effort to

She says the chamber’s mission, similar to that of other chambers in Apple Valley, Lakeville and the Dakota County Regional, is to “unite and support local businesses with the goal of increasing economic opportunities and fostering a healthy business climate.� “So everything we do is about promoting and advocating for Burnsville businesses,� Harmening

said. Burnsville and Eagan are home to two of the largest shopping centers in Dakota County. Burnsville Center has long been a magnet for holiday shoppers as it offers special events and visits from Santa Claus during the season. Twin Cities Premium Outlets is another regional draw that offers a little something different with upscale retailers in a walking mall setting. Special events also come to other regional shopping areas like the Heart of the City in Burnsville and the downtown areas of Lakeville, Rosemount and Farmington, which host treelighting ceremonies that also dovetail into a shop local effort. These experiences aim to bring people to the downtown areas for fun, meeting neighbors and discovering what these downtown areas have to offer for gift-giving time. There are dozens of small shopping centers throughout each of the cities. These are filled with many local retailers offering boutique or unique shopping excursions. “We find that retailers are focusing on the shopping experience and making sure that customers enjoy shopping here in Burnsville,� Harmening said. “Our businesses are also getting more creative with engaging customers through social media.� Sun Thisweek and the Dakota County Tribune will offer a large listing of local events in the Nov. 16 and 17 editions with the special section “The See SHOP, next page

Healthy checkups for families during winter The winter holiday season is wonderful for bringing people together. However, that also means bringing their germs with them as well. Increased travelers, walking through busy areas, and being out of the regular routine are all simple ways to wind up sick. To keep your family healthy through the winter, here are a few suggestions.

Institute a house quarantine If you think that someone may be contagious, try and contain them to a few rooms of the house. By keeping them away from everyone else, it can help reduce the chance of the whole family becoming ill. In addition to where they rest, also limit what they touch. TV remotes, gaming remotes, and towels are easy ways to share germs. Make sure to wipe anything that gets touched, and replace hand towels with disposable paper towels.

If it seems as if your child always spends the holidays sick, it may be a better option to head it off at the pass.

Holidays.� The section will offer information about holiday tree-lighting events along with arts and entertainment that’s focused on the season. The idea behind many of these events is that people can attend them and stop along the way to shop local retailers or dine at a local restaurant. Inside the shops people will find treasures that make for great gifts, some of them one-of-a-kind that one wouldn’t find online. Buying local also gives a person the satisfaction that they are propping up the local economy that provides jobs to friends and neighbors. “A healthy business community means a healthy tax base, a healthy tax base reduces the portion of the tax base that homeowners pay and overall leads to a strong com-

munity,� Harmening said. Apple Valley has one of the busiest retail areas in Dakota County at the junction of Highway 77/ Cedar Avenue and County Road 42. The area is home to scores of retailers and restaurants, several of them are locally owned. “It is important to see other small business around us doing well,� said Deb Haupt, of Eagan, owner of Haupt Antiek Market in Apple Valley. “Other shop owners are investing in their small businesses as well as new businesses moving into the area.� Many of these businesses are taking a cue from shops like Haupt Antiek Market, which is only open four days of month and focuses on an event shopping experience. The business has a theme for each monthly sale and brings in new

items for each sale that aim to turn the shopping experience more into a treasure hunt. Local businesses also have the perk of often having ample parking and accessibility. Customer service is another aspect of shopping local that businesses strive for. If people can’t find exactly what they are looking for at a local shop, the retailers often take the time to talk to a customer and see if a certain product can be ordered for them. Harmening said Burnsville folks are very loyal to local businesses as many use directories like those found on the chamber’s website to find retailers to support. To find these directories, go online to burnsvillechamber.com, lakevillechamber.org, applevalleychamber.com or dcrchamber.com.

Sports Wildcats win in a final-second stunner Pagois’ goal gives Eagan 3rd state title in 4 years by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

In the final seconds of the state Class AA girls soccer championship game, it was difficult to tell what concerned Eagan’s players more — the possibility they would have to go to overtime and perhaps lose, or the threat of some extra road work afterward. “In our practices, if we don’t go to the last minute, go to the last play, we have to go and run,” goalkeeper Megan Plaschko said. “So it’s kind of put into us right away that you play until the last whistle blows.” Instead of coasting into overtime and trying to win the game then, the Wildcats (17-2-2) took advantage of one last

victory over Maple Grove For the third time in on Thursday and its third their last four postseason state championship in four games, Eagan went into years. the final minute of the second half tied. On two occasions — the Section 3AA championship game against Rosemount and Thursday’s state final — the Wildcats scored the winner in the final seconds. Eagan didn’t score in the final minute against Edina in the state quarterfinals, but did win it early in the first overtime period. The Wildcats saw the final corner kick as one more opportunity they could seize before having to deal with overtime. “Our team knows six seconds is a lot of time, more than enough time for a goal,” Plaschko said. Junior forward Grace Sjoberg sent the corner kick into the penalty area. “I looked at the clock and there were 10 seconds left, so I was like, ‘Hey, one more play. Get this cross off in bounds and hope someone gets a head on it,’” Sjoberg said. “The keeper was a lot shorter than I was, so I Eagan players rush to congratulate Ellen Pagois after she scored with six seconds just made sure I took adremaining in the state Class AA girls soccer championship game against Maple Grove. vantage of that and got

my head over the ball,” Pagois said. “It hit the back of my head.” The goal stunned a Maple Grove team that might already have been anticipating overtime. Asked if Maple Grove was ready for the final corner kick, Crimson midfielder and Ms. Soccer award winner Meredith Haakenson said, “I don’t think so. Our coaches always tell us it’s not over until it’s over, so I think that’s just something that we’re all going to wish we had back.” Pagois would have been one of the least likely Wildcats to end the game. She was in the starting lineup for Eagan’s last two state tournament games because Brooke Peplinski sustained a concussion in the quarterfinal game against Edina. The gamewinner in the state final was Pagois’ first goal of the season. “I never thought I would even set foot on a varsity field. This is insane,” Pagois said.

Several Eagan seniors are in their final week as high school volleyball players, and they want to sprint through the finish line. Volleyball season can be long – many players will go to club team tryouts Sunday, the day after the high school state tournament – and maintaining enthusiasm is important. At Eagan, that’s not difficult, Wildcats senior captain Ally Murphy said. “I think we’ve been really lucky with athletes who appreciate the game,” Murphy said. “You won’t find anybody on this court who doesn’t love volleyball. If we have free time, we play among ourselves. “I think for a lot of teams, high school’s more of a social game. But we’re fortunate to have such good athletes we can play at a high level the whole time.” Going into this week’s state Class 3A tournament, Eagan’s level has been higher than anybody else’s. The Wildcats (28-1) have won 20 consecutive matches since their only loss to Lakeville South on Sept. 12. They have lost only nine sets all year and none since Sept. 14. They go into the state tournament Thursday favored to win their third consecutive Class 3A championship and fourth in five years. Eagan plays Forest Lake (21-8) in the state quarterfinals at 9 a.m. Thursday at Xcel Energy Center. If the Wildcats take the title, it would be a third

when called, something coach Bulut Ozturk said Pagois took to heart. “Ellen wasn’t going to be a starter today. We needed her to step up, and that’s the culture and mentality we’ve built with our girls,” Ozturk said. “We have a lot of fight on this team.” Haakenson headed in a free kick 17 minutes, 24 seconds into the game to put Maple Grove (19-3) ahead 1-0. Eagan tied the game about 15 minutes later when junior defender Jessica Van Wyk scored on a free kick that Crimson goalie Sarah Cortez deflected but couldn’t stop. Like Pagois, the goal in the state championship game was Van Wyk’s first of the season. Eagan might not have been in a position to win the game in the final minute if not for Plaschko’s diving save on Maple Grove’s Lauren Bredensteiner with about 13 minutes remaining. Plaschko said even as she dove for the ball she thought she might not prevent a goal. “I was like, we’ve got to find a way to get this (goal) back. Then I dove for it and felt it hit my arm and I looked back and thought, it didn’t go in. I knew I gave my team an opportunity to get back in it. At that point if we had gone down we’d still be out there playing, probably.” The save helped make a possible a finish that, while of the storybook variety, was strangely familiar to the Wildcats. “Megan pointed out to me earlier we won in the last seconds in the first game of the year (against East Ridge), and here we are winning in the last seconds of the last game of the year,” Ozturk said. “It kind of became an expectation.”

Eagan and Lakeville North are the top two seeds in the state Class 3A volleyball tournament that begins Thursday. consecutive championship for McKenna Melville, who Tuesday was named the Star Tribune metro player of the year and Wednesday signed to play at the University of Central Florida. “Last year was just as huge as it could be this year,” Melville said. “We’re going to work our hardest and hopefully we’ll get there.”

Eagan won all three of its Section 3 playoff matches in straight sets, including a 25-22, 25-24, 25-13 victory over East Ridge in the final last Saturday at Prior Lake High School. Those teams played in a regular-season match Sept. 7 at East Ridge, where Eagan dropped the first two sets before rallying to win in five. Not long

after that, the players and coaches recognized changes were needed. “We just started working a lot harder in practice and realized we had to get a lot better in order to succeed,” Melville said. “This year was one of those years where we needed to slow down a little bit and figure out what we needed See WILDCATS, 14A

Some of the top high school athletes in Minnesota made their college choices official Wednesday, the first day of the National Letter of Intent fall signing period. Among those signing Wednesday were Apple Valley senior Tre Jones, one of the top boys basketball players in the class of 2017. He will attend Duke University. His classmate Gable Steveson, ranked as the nation’s top high school wrestler, signed with Minnesota. Two players from perennial state baseball power Lakeville North signed with Big 12 Conference schools – catcher Nick Juaire (Texas Christian) and pitcher/first baseman Nathaniel Peterson (Oklahoma State). Eagan senior McKenna Melville, one of the state’s top volleyball players, signed with Central Florida. Another Eagan senior, state hurdles champion Natalie Windels, will compete in track and field at Minnesota. Farmington senior Emma Frost, whose extra-inning home run clinched her school’s first state softball championship in June, is headed to Minnesota-Duluth.

Trenton Allen (432) of Eagan runs the boys 5,000-meter race at the state Class AA cross country meet Saturday at St. Olaf College. Allen, a senior, finished 81st in 16 minutes, 43 seconds. Eagan senior Adam McMonagle was 128th in 17:08.2. WILDCATS, from 13A to work on in order to get better.� Murphy said the Wildcats needed a refresher course in fundamentals, and with the high school season lasting less than three months, realized it needed to be done quickly. “You think when you have a team with this much skill and this many players at such a high level, you can go and work on the fun stuff, like the plays and what you’re going to hit,� Murphy said. “But our blocking was terrible. I’m a blocker, so it’s not like I’m saying that about anybody else. We broke that down and worked on it every day, did footwork (drills) and stuff. “We went back to the basics so we could do the fun stuff again. If you don’t have a good pass and a good set, you can’t hit. If you don’t block, you’re not going to dig, and you can’t do anything else.� Working on fundamen-

tals can be mundane, but “they didn’t tell me they minded it,� coach Kathy Gillen said. “They’ve seen that it works, so I don’t think they questioned it.� By the time the Wildcats saw East Ridge again, they had been transformed. “Definitely a lot more mentally tough. The first time we were not very smart about where we hit and where we passed,� said Melville, who had 12 kills in the section final. East Ridge “didn’t know what to do because we have so many strong people,� Murphy said, “as opposed to the first time when we couldn’t pass and couldn’t get the set.� Four players who started for Eagan in the 2016 Class 3A championship match – Melville, senior outside hitter Anne Wong, junior middle hitter Ellie Husemann and freshman setter-outside hitter Kennedi Orr – returned this season. Also back was Murphy, a member of the last two Eagan state cham-

pionship teams. Gillen also tinkered with the lineup in midseason, and the result, Murphy said, is a team that does a lot of things well. “We serve receive really well,� Murphy added. “When you have such a good passing game, we can set it to anybody in the front row at any time and I’m confident they could put it down. When McKenna’s in the back, she can back-row attack. We have so many forces going all at once.� If the Wildcats’ season ends with another state championship, Gillen undoubtedly will field questions about what she did to set in motion the recent streak of dominant play. But she said the questions should be posed to her players. “I didn’t accomplish it,� Gillen said. “They did.� Email Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecminc.com.

It will be a familiar environment for Apple Valley when it plays in the state Class 5A football quarterfinals Saturday night — but the Eagles’ opponent can say the same. Mankato West, one of Minnesota’s most successful programs in the 2000s, will face Apple Valley at 6 p.m. Saturday at Shakopee West Junior High School. The Scarlets have won four state championships since 1999 (including the 2014 Class 5A title) and have been to the state playoffs nine of the last 10 years. They were thought to be in a transition phase under first-year head coach J.J. Helget but are 10-1 with all but one of their victories by at least 10 points.

and fourth time in six years. Mankato West “has a lot of experience getting to this point and beyond,� Apple Valley coach Chad Clendening said. “They’re a solid team and can score a lot of points. Offensively, they do a lot of things that are deceptive. Their strength is running the football, but they also take shots down the field. Defensively, they do a great job of shutting down the other team and getting off the field.� Dustin Mueller, a senior running back, gained 240 yards and scored twice as Mankato West defeated Waconia 24-14 in the Section 2 championship game last Friday. Apple Valley also is likely to rely on its defense and rushing, and also has not been in a lot of close games. All nine of the Eagles’ victories have been by 14 points or more, including their 42-7

rout of St. Thomas Academy in the Section 3 final. The Eagles led STA (65) 35-0 by halftime and didn’t lose their shutout until 4 minutes and 37 seconds remained. Apple Valley rushed for 240 yards and scored all six of its touchdowns on the ground. About the only mistake the Eagles made last Friday was a holding penalty that brought back a 72-yard punt return for a touchdown by junior Damian Swanson, but a few minutes later Swanson took the ball on a sweep and scored on a 22-yard run. Quarterback Tyler Cardella rushed nine times for 86 yards and scored twice, including a 54-yard run in the first quarter. Trey Kocher also had two rushing touchdowns and Kellan McKeag had 69 yards on 11 carries and one score.

SUN THISWEEK - Burnsville - Eagan Nov. 10, 2017 15A

GOATS, from 1A to reach places to chomp away at the plants. Previous city code classified goats as farm animals, which are to be kept on agriculturally zoned properties of at least five acres. The City Council approved an ordinance amendment allowing goals on properties of at least a half acre or on multiple properties with a combined grazing area of a half acre. It would require an administrative permit and limit two goats per tenth of an acre, so 20 goats per acre. UNITS, from 1A units on single-family lots. The city will continue to opt out of a state law that allows the structures. Council members also agreed to consider allowing micro-apartments by reducing the city’s 500-square-foot minimum for efficiency apartments. Council Members Cara Schulz and Dan Gustafson have been vocal proponents this year of opening up Burnsville’s

SCHULZ, from 1A Schulz, 47, who is working on a contract basis. Schulz finished a strong third in the 2014 council election before breaking through last year. She knocked on more than 22,000 doors in 2016 for herself and for the Johnson campaign, according to Wes Benedict, the national committee’s executive director. “She won’t accept many excuses,� Benedict said in announcing her appointment. “She’s the kind of person we need to rally Libertarians to run for office nationwide.� Part of her job, Schulz said, is to field would-be candidates’ questions and connect them with party leaders in their own states. She’s also creating a candidate “workbook� for the party, which lacks majorparty status in Minnesota and many other states. “We can’t use a regular playbook for how to run a campaign,� Schulz said. BRIDGE, from 1A southbound lanes and five northbound. The added northbound lane will be an auxiliary/truck lane extending from Cliff Road in Burnsville to 106th Street in Bloomington. The current bridge has three northbound and four southbound lanes. A pedestrian and bicycle trail will be added. The freeway will be rebuilt from Cliff to 106th Street to remove it from the 100year floodplain. The 106th Street bridge over the freeway will be replaced. Lane restrictions are expected from spring 2019 to summer 2020, accord-

The city initially considered one goat per tenth acre, but Schnuckle said it would take the goats longer to do its job. The more goats, the faster they clear out the buckthorn. Per the new rules, goats must be contained within an enclosure preventing them from running at large. “It doesn’t mean we’re requiring an electric fence, but that is the typical temporary fencing method,� said Christina Scipioni, city clerk. “If an electric fence is used by the goat rental company, they would be required to have an addition boarder fence so that contact by the elec-

tric fence can’t be made by people.� Goat Dispatch owner Jake Langeslag said the problems is not really goats, it’s usally people trying to look at the goats. He was fine with the fencing. He often places the double fences near high traffic areas. The city can revoke a permit if the goats are found running free on two or more occasions. Future permits can be denied if applicants are found in violation. The goat owner is required to provide insurance. The initial applicant fee is $50 and renewal applications are $25. It often takes more

than one grazing period to be effective. “Typically with perspective grazing, they would come in the spring, when buckthorn is just sprouting and all the other native plants haven’t started,� Scipioni said. “Then come again in again in the fall when it’s just buckthorn when all the other plants have gone dormant.� Someone has to live on the property while the goats are there, Scipioni said. The city received several emails from residents concerning the issue. Almost all of them were in support stating it’s a pro-

gressive and creative way to handle the invasive species, and were excited about their potential temporary neighbors. But one homeowner described a situation where woke up in the morning to find four goats in his backyard. Apparently one of their neighbors was using goats on their property and four escaped. One was pounding their horns on a basement window. The homeowner said they were against bringing goats to the city. “We don’t like to have goat running at large,� Langeslag said. “It’s something we take seriously. “ Langeslag said they

check in with clients regularly’ “For our reputation we try to take care of things as fast as possible,� Langeslag said. Schnuckle used the goats earlier this year to remove a thick forest of bucktorn on his property, before the rules were in place. Scipioni said the only other city she could find with an ordinance was Faribault.

housing regulations. “This is a trend that’s really coming up and coming into its own,� Schulz said of ADUs. The owner demographics are desirable, she said: Thirty-eight percent of ADU dwellers are debt-free compared with 22 percent of all Americans, more than half earn more than $75,000 a year, and 83 percent volunteer in their communities. “I think when you look at the demographics, who lives and wants to live in

these types of dwelling units, those are exactly the type of people that every city fights tooth-and-claw to bring into their city,� Schulz said. They’re also great investments in existing homes that boost tax base and generate local economic activity, Schulz said. Mortgage brokers and real estate appraisers love ADUs, said Gustafson, a Realtor. “We don’t have products like this in the city,�

Gustafson said. “We don’t have multigenerational housing in our city.� Council Member Dan Kealey agreed that market demands are changing. “There’s evidence across the board that this is what a mature city like ours should allow,� he said of ADUs. “I was a little surprised we didn’t allow it, and I think we ought to allow it.� Mayor Elizabeth Kautz, who cared for her late husband when he was

dying of cancer, was especially adamant about prohibiting health care units. They separate caregivers from their loved ones, she said. “If you love that person, be in that house,� said Kautz, who said her husband’s medical equipment was brought into her home. Schulz said the units can be “truly amazing� high-tech stand-ins for hospital rooms. “They’re expensive, and that’s why people generally

rent them,� she said. Microapartments are gaining popularity in buildings rich with common amenities, supporters said. With the Orange Line rapid bus line slated to come to Burnsville, demand for microapartments will grow, Gustafson predicted.

“Oftentimes, Libertarians have to go to great lengths just to get on the ballot� in statewide races. “A Republican or Democrat is automatically placed on a ballot in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. Libertarians aren’t. They have to do things like get thousands of signatures on a petition or pay truly exorbitant filing fees.� The party, founded in 1971, calls for a spartan government that exists to protect property rights, adjudicate disputes and provide a legal framework for voluntary trade. Most other government regulations are overreaching, it says. Libertarians want to reduce or eliminate taxes where possible, the party says, freeing up businesses and individuals — who, in one of the party’s betterknown stances, should be able to consume what they want, free of the government’s “racist� war on drugs. “At its most simple,

Libertarian philosophy comes down to: Don’t hurt people and don’t steal their stuff,� Schulz said. When she took office in January, Schulz became part of a working majority of council members that is likely to approve regulations allowing short-term vacation rentals in city neighborhoods and has been willing to at least consider allowing accessory dwellings on singlefamily lots (see related story in this week’s edition). Schulz campaigned on shaking up the zoning code. Council Member Bill Coughlin opposes shortterm rentals but has agreed to consider attached accessory dwellings. “I like Cara, she’s a very nice person, and I don’t think one way or the other of her ideology,� Coughlin said. “She agrees with my frugality mostly. Sometimes she’s even more frugal than I am. I don’t always agree with her on some issues,

but that’s normal.� Mayor Elizabeth Kautz is a self-proclaimed Republican and former president of the U.S. Conference of Mayors who co-chaired the 2000 BushCheney campaign in Minnesota. “I am going to continue to serve the people of Burnsville and not a particular party’s ideology,� said Kautz, who is wary of short-term rentals and some kinds of accessory units. As for Schulz, “She comes to the meetings very thoughtful, and she has an opinion on the different issues just like everybody else. And then we take the vote.� Neither she nor Coughlin will back a 2018 property tax freeze when the

council votes on the annual city budget and levy next month. Coughlin estimates a freeze would force $1.2 million in cuts, likely including police officers “because that’s the biggest part of the budget.� When it approved the maximum levy in September, the council limited itself to a 3.9 percent levy hike and could end up approving a slightly lower number when a final vote is taken Dec. 5. Schulz? “We’ll see on that,� she said of her vote, the first she will cast on the annual budget and levy. She believes that annual tax increases with “no end in sight� represent an “unacceptable state of affairs.� Young families and se-

nior citizens get hurt, said Schulz, who is eager to bring her experience to her new job. “Being able to serve the people in your area and being able to truthfully make a lasting impact on your area, it is all worth it,� Schulz said. “I’ve just been in office for a little under a year, and it has been one of the more amazing experiences of my life.� Asked about her health, Schulz said that a reoccurence of colon cancer after she took office reached Stage 4 but is in remission. “I am very hopeful,� she said.

ing to MnDOT. The contractor will be allowed to restrict traffic to five lanes — two general-purpose lanes in each direction and one reversible MnPASS lane. The contract will include incentives to minimize the five-lane configuration and keep three lanes open in each direction — two general-purpose lanes and a MnPASS lane. A few people spoke at a public hearing before the Burnsville council vote. Michelle Swanson of Xcel Energy stressed the importance of maintaining access during construction to the Black Dog power plant in Burnsville.

Ramps at Black Dog Road will be required to provide access at all times, according to MnDOT. One resident offered suggestions for improving traffic flow on I-35E near County Road 11 and Cedar Avenue, which will bear more traffic as an alternate route during construction. Another wanted to know if the project could be finished quicker and asked the cost of the trail, which will offer “zero return on investment.�

The School Board will canvass the results of the election at its meeting on Monday, Nov. 13. Newly elected board members will be sworn in at the board meeting on Monday, Jan. 8. The candidates will serve four-year terms, running from January 2018 to January 2022. Coulson said he was “surprised and relieved” when he discovered he’d received the most votes. “I’m always humbled by the whole thing,” he said. “You think nobody knows who you are, and then you see the results and realize people do actually know who you are.” Angrimson, who has run in three previous school board elections, said he went to bed on Tuesday before the election results had been announced.

he had won a seat when his daughter called him at 11:15 p.m. to ask why he hadn’t called her to announce his victory. “Hearing it from my 20-year-old daughter made winning even more special,” Angrimson said. Coulson said the large number of candidates running this year shows that people are invested and interested in District 196 schools. He said being a member of the school board takes up more time than most people realize, but he enjoys the work. “We have a board that works really well together,” Coulson said. “It makes it easier to give up your time and do the work when you have the same goal.” Angrimson said he believes he was elected be-

balance. School funding provided by the state Legislature hasn’t kept pace with inflation or rising education costs, which are about 3.7 percent a year, the district says.

Approval of the two measures will raise school taxes on an average-value home ($250,000) by $120, according to the district. A total of 6,554 ballots were cast on the first question and 6,536 on the

second, according to the unofficial results.

cause people see him as a p p ro a c h able and as someone who will listen to them. Craig “I got out Angrimson there and met people and let them see I’m just a normal person. People like to have someone on the board they can talk to,” he said. “I’m humbled to be elected. It’s something I don’t take lightly.” He also said his endorsement from the Dakota County United Educators (DCUE) was a huge component of his success. “Teachers are the most valuable thing in our district. Their support means so much to me,” he said. Looking ahead, the newly elected school board members have already begun to focus in on a few of their goals. Coulson said he is working with administrators to think about what kind of teachers the district will hire in coming years. He said a large

number of teachers will soon retire, and it is an opportunity to hire new staff who will more accurately represent the district — a community that has undergone great changes in the last 20 years. “We are at a historic moment in which we are going to see a large turnover in our teachers,” Coulson said. “Let’s be strategic about how we replace those teachers and staff, let’s be intentional about who we are hiring so it better reflects the community we serve.” Coulson said being more intentional when hiring teachers, staff and toplevel administrators is one way District 196 can tackle the achievement gap. As the chair of the legislative committee for the board, he said he also wants to establish a steady, predictable source of funding for the district that reflects economic reality. Angrimson said his primary goal is to be a liaison between the school board and the people it repre-

sents. “I want to open up the line between the school board and the people,” he said. “Some people feel like they don’t have a voice or don’t know what’s going on. I want to represent them.” He said he wants to work to find new ways to listen to people as well as get the word out about school board processes and decisions. Angrimson said he is still interested in engaging in a dialogue about later school start times. He said he’s been talking with parents, teachers and administrators and he’s seen valid reasons on both sides of the argument. He said he wants to continue these discussions and either find a way to make later school start times a possibility or find a way to communicate to people in the district why it isn’t a viable option. At press time, the Sun Thisweek and Dakota County Tribune were unable to reach Roseen. During a forum with the

Dakota County League of Women Voters, Roseen said his main goal in his next term was establishing and maintaining the budget. “Everything else comes after that,” Roseen said. Coulson said he is looking forward to working with Angrimson, and at the same time he is sad to see a valued colleague leaving the board. “We will work with him (Angrimson) closely, and we’ll get him up to speed,” Coulson said. “It’s good to have a fresh set of eyes on things, but it can be kind of daunting.” Angrimson said he is excited to begin his first term — something he’s been wanting for years. He said he knows he has big shoes to fill. “When I checked through my texts this morning, Gary Huusko was one of the first people who texted me to congratulate me,” he said. “That shows his character.”

Running Nov. 10-19, this holiday classic tells the story of Kris Kringle, an old man in a retirement home, who gets a job working as Santa for Macy’s. Kris unleashes waves of good will with Macy’s cus-

tomers and the commercial world of New York City by referring parents to other stores to find exactly the toy their child has asked for. Seen as deluded and dangerous by Macy’s vocational counselor, who plots to have Kris committed, he ends up in a court competency hearing. Especially at stake is one little girl’s belief in Santa. In a dramatic decision, the

History Talk to recount how 1921 movie was made in Rosemount Post. Lewis later expanded the story to a full-length novel. Since the story revolves around an auto trip from Minneapolis to Seattle, Kahlert and Berg hit upon the somewhat novel idea for the time of shooting the many outdoor scenes on location and using local people as extras. When the movie company left New York for St. Paul it had only the bare minimum of plans. They expected to remain in St. Paul for about a month and then head west to Fargo and finally Glacier Park to film all of the outdoor scenes needed. Beyond this they had no idea of exact locations, filming sequence order, timetables or cast extras lined up. While filming was taking place in St. Paul, a search began for filming locations outside of the city. After an exhaustive search it was decided that Rosemount most closely fit the description of the mythical town of Schoenstrom in the story. Other scenes shot in Rosemount depicted the various towns along the way to Seattle. Short scenes were also filmed in Mendota at the

ferry crossing to Fort Snelling and at St. Peter’s cemetery. Outlook Photoplays was interested in more that producing entertainment. The company was funded by 21 subscribers representing large industries who pledged $300,000 to help defeat the goals of the Farmers’ Nonpartisan League, a socialist movement commonly referred to at the time as “Townleyism.” The company produced five short films in time for use in the 1920 Minnesota elections and then three full-length movies, the second being “Free Air.” The subliminal message in “Free Air” was that in a free society anyone can aspire to better themselves through perseverance. By the early 1920’s an era of Among the many artifacts that will be presented great prosperity began and during the History Talk many of the subscribers of “Making of the Movie the company lost interest ‘Free Air’ ” are a poster in the work. After givpromoting the movie and ing up their careers in the movie industry, Berg and photographs taken in Rosemount during the filming Kahlert became very sucof the 1921 silent movie. cessful stockbrokers in the Twin Cities.

Rosemount historian Gerald Mattson will give the next in the Rosemount Area Historical Society’s History Talk series recounting the “Making of the Movie ‘Free Air’ ” at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 16, at the Robert Trail Library. For 10 days in August 1921 Rosemount became the village of Schoenstrom in the Sinclair Lewis novel “Free Air.” Usual business came to a standstill as several locals gained small parts and everyone else watched the action. Although the original silent film no longer exists many stills and publicity photos not seen in public for almost 90 years will be featured during the talk. Rosemount was playing host to a New Yorkbased movie company with strong ties to St. Paul. The owners of Outlook Photoplays Inc. were West St. Paul natives William G. Kahlert and Einar A. Berg. They had secured rights from Lewis to make a movie based on his short story “Free Air,” which was published in installments beginning in the May 31, 1919, edition of The Saturday Evening
