Eagan couple hope to start holiday tradition Adventure Santa is their creation by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Eagan residents Sean and Catherine Green really just want to see more families participate in impulsive and exciting activities together this holiday season. The husband and wife team love going on adventures with their two children, but the holidays can get hectic with work, parties, shopping and shoveling. It’s hard to capture some genuine creative Christmas spirit when you’re being pulled in all directions. That’s when you know it’s a good time to bring

ture Santa, a doll with big plans. The idea is to hide the Adventure Santa somewhere in the house. When found, children check inside Santa’s backpack where they’ll find a note listing something special about what they’re going to do today. “We usually hide him a little bit,� Catherine Green said, whose children are 5 and 3. “We put him on the couch or someplace where they can come across him. It’s fun to see the excitement when the Santa shows up. They scramble to see what’s in the backpack.� The adventures are up to the parents, but they do offer suggestions. They have a newsletter Adventure Santa owners can subscribe to. It could be as big as a

trip to Disneyland to a movie night, baking cookies or a sledding trip. “We’re planing on having a campout night in front of the Christmas tree soon,� Catherine Green said. “That’s what we’re going to use it for next. It’s very flexible.� There’s also a book focusing on the story of Adventure Santa, who remembers what it was like when he was younger and went on adventures. “It tells a story about parents who want to spend time with their kids and build memories together,� Catherine Green said. Adventure Santa is for anyone who still believes in the magic of Santa. Catherine Green came up with the idea during the 2014 Christmas seaSee SANTA, 14A

Burnsville police, fire station plans unveiled Projects also planned for City Hall, maintenance garage by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Thirty patrol officers share six work spaces in what used to be the dispatch area of the Burnsville police station. That, and much more, will change when an expanded and renovated station opens in the spring of 2018.

Five patrol officers sharing a work space will shrink to two, said John McNamara of Wold Architects and Engineers. City Council members got an early look at plans for the police station and other aging city buildings at a Dec. 13 work session. A first phase of longplanned upgrades is expected to break ground in April or May. The council is expected to vote Dec. 20 to hire a construction manager. The police station is the largest piece of a $13.3 million first phase,

which includes improvements to the adjoining City Hall and to the nearby city maintenance garage. The first phase also includes design work on the older of Burnsville’s two fire stations. Replacement of Fire Station 1 on 140th Street West just north of County Road 42 is expected to cost $11 million to $12 million when completed, tentatively in 2022. The police project includes a 30-stall enclosed garage that had been planned for a second phase, years down the

road, but won majority council support in September. The project will provide larger and more modern work spaces for police functions from patrol to investigations and evidence processing. To make way for construction, police are expected in February to begin moving some operations temporarily from the station to the lower level of City Hall. The City Hall project includes added restroom space in the lobby, an office and a conference space.

Maintenance garage projects include a new roof and other deferred maintenance items. The Burnsville Hockey Club, which occupies part of the building for training, asked for an estimate for new club restrooms. The estimate is $150,000. City Hall and the police station were built in 1988. The garage was built in 1969, with additions in 1974 and 1981. Fire Station 1 was built in 1975 — originally as a police station — and expanded in 1989 and 2011. It has outlived its useful life and must

be replaced, not renovated, officials say. Further in the future are improvements to Fire Station 2, on Parkwood Drive south of Highway 13, which was built in 1989. The “vast majority� of building project costs will be covered by the franchise fees on electric and gas users the council approved earlier this year, Council Member Bill Coughlin noted. John Gessner can be reached at (952) 846-2031 or email john.gessner@ecm-inc.com.

Kealey: Heart of City race deserves city designation by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Burnsville City Council Member Dan Kealey, who heads a popular 10K race here each September, is seeking a city designation for the event that would include publicity through city channels. A roadblock to the designation, which requires council approval, is that the Heart of the City 10K, 5K and 1K isn’t organized by a local nonprofit organization as city policy requires. The event, now held under the umbrella of the Burnsville Fire Muster, is sponsored by Burnsvillebased Rixmann Cos. as a fundraiser for the Kids Feeding Kids program of the Boys and Girls Clubs of the Twin Cities. In recent years the Boys and Girls Clubs considered

and rejected a plan to open a Burnsville club. K e a l e y, a Rixmann Cos. Dan Kealey e m p l oy e e who chairs the event’s board, says the city should change its policy restricting city-assisted “community� and “legacy� events to local nonprofits. Why not also give the designations to events that contribute to local causes? Kealey argued at a Dec. 13 council work session. The 10K event isn’t run by a nonprofit but could write a check to the Burnsville Youth Collaborative, a cause that fits the event’s mission, Kealey said. “The way our policy is structured, I think is not

necessarily the most ideal,� Kealey said. His council colleagues may need more convincing. Council Member Bill Coughlin defended the nonprofit requirement. “That’s on you,� he told Kealey. “I’m not willing to change that.� Council Member Mary Sherry questioned how the city would determine that an event has adequately benefitted a local cause, as Kealey suggested. Council members agreed to table the discussion and seek more information about the ramifications of assisting events not run by local nonprofits. There may be “unintended consequences,� Mayor Elizabeth Kautz said. City policy extends assistance to events that meet several criteria. Leg-

acy events, whose nonprofits must be established specifically to manage the event, receive more assistance, including a city staff liaison to coordinate city services. The city contributes 50 percent of the cost of services such as police, fire, public works and parks. The council now recognizes three legacy events: the Burnsville Fire Muster, the International Festival of Burnsville and the Art and All That Jazz festival, which hasn’t been held since 2012. It was founded by former City Council Member Dan Gustafson, who was elected again in November after a four-year absence. Community events receive slightly less assistance. The city will consider covering 50 percent of the city service costs and doesn’t provide a staff li-

aison. The organizer must be a local nonprofit but needn’t be set up specifically to manage the event. Both legacy and community events come with city publicity — and that’s what his event is lacking, Kealey said. The city touts the events through email blasts, its website calendar, the city newsletter, social media, Burnsville Community Television and the reader board in front of City Hall. Debuting in 2012, the run/walk got ample city publicity as a stand-alone event, even though it was under the Fire Muster umbrella, Kealey said. That publicity has dropped to almost nothing, he said. A community event designation would be sufficient for the event, he said. It will be especially important if the event is

forced to break away from the Fire Muster because of its rapid growth, Kealey said. Organizers aren’t planning that, but continued growth could make it impractical to run the event on Saturday morning during the Fire Muster, he said. The Fire Muster is held the week after Labor Day; its busiest day is Saturday. The run/walk grew from 442 participants in 2015 to 541 this year, Kealey said. Next year it will add a 15K race. The event took over for the former Tender Hearts Foundation Half Marathon, a legacy event begun in 2004. It was unsponsored in 2012 and removed from the roster of legacy events.

East Lake is name of new District 196 school in Lakeville by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Students like to feel they are a name rather than a number. The same can be said for the schools they attend. Since planning started for the newest elementary in the Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School Dis-

trict, it’s been referred to as “Elementary 19.� No more. The School Board officially dubbed the building East Lake Elementary School during Monday’s regular meeting. The name was proposed after a public input process, an initial name screening that whittled the

list to nine, a parent committee’s preparation of a three-name finalist list and final selection by school administration. The school takes its name from the nearby East Lake, which is to the southwest of the school. The city of Lakeville’s East Lake Community Park is located around the

lake, both of which will be visible from the new school. During the public suggestion timeframe (Oct. 17-Nov. 11), more than 1,000 names were offered for the new school. The parent committee, which met Nov. 30, could have selected just one name to forward for

consideration, but instead gave three options for the administration. The district reported that there are other East Lake elementary schools in other states, but none in Minnesota. Superintendent Jane Berenz thanked the parents who served on the committee and others who

have been involved in the development of the school for leading these efforts. The school will open in fall 2017 at the southwest corner of the intersection of Diamond Path and County Road 46 in Lakeville. Email Tad Johnson at tad.johnson@ecm-inc.com.

Prokopowicz, chief deputy attorney, honored by attorneys association Dakota County Chief Deputy Phillip Prokopowicz was presented with the MCAA Meritorious Service Award at the Minnesota County Attorneys Association annual meeting. This award honors an individual who has demonstrated leadership in her/his office, or has served in key roles in the MCAA governance

structure to advance the goals of MCAA. Prokopowicz was recognized for his hard work and dedication to helping the association secure passage this year of drug sentencing reform legislation. This legislation was MCAA’s No. 1 legislative priority for 2016. Securing support for this proposal by

legislators and numerous other key stakeholder organizations was not only complex and incredibly time consuming, but also exhausting and frustrating at times. Throughout the difficult negotiations and challenging legislative process, Prokopowicz advised all involved of the proposal’s impacts

throughout the numerous iterations it went through and to draft the final bill language needed to make the proposal a reality. Prokopowicz put in significant time and effort in the drafting process, was always available for consultation, and was critical to the successful outcome the association and pros-

ecutors across the state achieved. The drug sentencing reform legislation is one of the most important legislative accomplishments the MCAA has been able to push through and secure the passage of in recent decades, said Dakota County Attorney Jim Backstrom. “This suc-

cessful outcome could not have been achieved without the hard work and dedication of Phil Prokopowicz.� MCAA executive director Robert Small remarked, “Prokopowicz is so deserving of this award. His leadership at the Capitol with legislators was paramount to our success.�

Opinion What are Trump’s plans for Minnesota schools? by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

U.S. Sen. Al Franken, Minnesota, will soon have a chance to ask several questions of Betsy DeVos, Presidentelect Donald Trump’s nominee for secretary of education. That’s because Franken serves on the U.S. Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee. Marc Kimball, state director of communications for Franken, recently confirmed in a phone call that the committee will meet with DeVos as part of her confirmation process. Here are several issues that I hope Franken will consider raising. You may want to suggest these or others. 1. Promoting safety, respect and optimism among students. If students are frightened, intimidated or bullied, they learn much less. A recent national poll of more than 10,000 educators, conducted by the Southern Poverty Law Center, found that since the election: “Ninety percent of educators report that school climate has been negatively affected, and most of them believe it will have a long-lasting impact. A full 80 percent describe heightened anxiety and concern on the part of students worried about the impact of the election on themselves and their families. Also on the upswing: verbal harassment, the use of slurs and derogatory language, and disturbing

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Joe Nathan incidents involving swastikas, Nazi salutes and Confederate flags.” The SPLC acknowledged that this was not a scientific poll, noting that respondents were not a representative sample: “(Respondents) may have been more likely to perceive problems than those who did not.” However, I agree with the SPLC’s conclusions: “The tremendous number of responses as well as the overwhelming confirmation of what has been anecdotally reported in the media cannot be ignored or dismissed.” More information about the poll can be found here: http://bit.ly/2fzqiKg. 2. School choice – which Trump says he wants to expand to include private and parochial schools. Minnesota offers lessons about choice, as we have within-district and cross-district schools, magnet schools, teacher-led schools, charter public schools, dual-credit programs (credit for high school and college) and tax credits. We’ve found that choice can promote widespread improvements – for example, districts added more

dual-credit courses in response to Postsecondary Enrollment Options. But I think we’ve wisely avoided providing per-pupil funds to private and parochial K-12 schools. 3. Educating students with some form of disability. Congress requires that these students be served appropriately, but does not come close to providing the amount of funding that it originally promised. Will DeVos recommend an increase or other changes in these programs to make them more efficient? 4. Other priorities for improving pre-K-12 schools. There was little discussion during the campaign about K-12 education. Other than choice, what priorities does DeVos have? 5. Postsecondary education. Most jobs require a one- or two-year certificate or a four-year diploma. But many families are suffering from huge college debt. Completion and graduation rates are quite low at many institutions. College access, cost and quality urgently need more attention. 6. Learning from success. The U.S. Department of Education honors many schools, but it could do much more to help educators and families learn from the most effective. It’s worth noting that people disagree about DeVos. Dan Quisenberry, who I’ve known and respected for years, is president of the Michigan charter

school association. He’s worked with DeVos and believes she is “a passionate education reformer (who) has high expectations for schools to perform academically and will hold all schools, including charters, accountable for results.” Others, including, for example, presidents of national teacher unions, have strongly criticized her. DeVos has written: “I am committed to transforming our educational system into the best in the world. However, out of respect for the United States Senate, it is most appropriate for me to defer expounding on specifics until they begin the confirmation process.” (Read more from her at http:// betsydevos.com/qa.) Only about 10 percent of the funding for public schools comes from Congress. But that’s still more than $68 billion. Equally important, the head of the U.S. Department of Education can speak out on many issues. The department also can increase or decrease regulations on U.S. schools. Fortunately, Franken can ask DeVos for details and encourage her to consider what’s happening in Minnesota.

Nine end-of-year tax tips for procrastinators and planners alike by JoAnn Waugh SPECIAL TO SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Guest Columnist

It is the time of the year when procrastinators and planners both are looking for those last-minute, end-of-year tax tips that could save them money on their 2016 tax return. Here are nine tips taxpayers can use, whether they’re just getting started thinking about their 2016 tax return or they’re putting the final touches on their 2016 tax plan: 1. Don’t forget about use-it-or-lose-it money in flexible spending accounts. Putting money in a flexible spending account (FSA) during the year saves taxpayers from paying taxes on that amount. Then, taxpayers can use this money taxfree on qualified medical expenses. But, whatever funds taxpayers don’t spend before the end of the year – or grace period, if their company’s plan provides one – is just money left on the table. Instead, taxpayers should make sure to use this money for unreimbursed medical expenses like eyeglasses, prescription medications, medical equipment or copays. If they still have extra money in the flexible spending account to spend, they might want to schedule end-of-year appointments or buy prescription medicine they will need in 2017. 2. Sign up for health insurance. Taxpayers without insurance could have to pay a penalty of $695 per uncovered adult and $347 per uncovered child (to a maximum of $2,085) or 2.5 percent of their household income over their filing threshold, whichever is greater. A family of four earning $60,000 could pay a penalty of more than $2,000 for 2016. While it’s too late to avoid these penalties in 2016, to avoid them in 2017, taxpayers may enroll in a health insurance plan on the marketplace. Some taxpayers will also qualify for advance premium tax credits to help them pay their health insurance premiums. 3. Compare standard versus itemized

deductions and plan to accelerate or delay payments. Nearly every tax filer can claim a standard deduction, which reduces their taxable income, which in turn reduces their taxes owed. The standard deduction is $6,300 for single filers and $12,600 for married couples filing jointly. There is a way for some taxpayers to increase their deduction beyond the standard amount – and it doesn’t involve walking down the aisle. Taxpayers can choose to itemize their deductions instead, which means they deduct specific qualifying expenses including mortgage interest payments, state and local income or sales tax and charitable donations. If their itemized deductions add up to more than their standard deduction, the taxpayers can get a bigger tax benefit by itemizing. If a taxpayer has itemized deductions that total less than the standard deduction for their filing status, they should plan to claim the standard deduction. And if they know they’re claiming the standard deduction this year but expect to itemize next year, they may prefer to wait until January to pay some end of year expenses. Delaying those expenses until 2017 could boost their ability to itemize more in 2017. For example, if they plan to buy a house or move to a state with higher income taxes next year, they might want to delay other deductible expenses to get the tax deduction. One way to do that would be to bunch end of year deductible expenses and pay them in January 2017, when they can use that expense as an itemized deduction, instead of December 2016 when they will claim the standard deduction. Or, if they think they won’t have as many itemized deductions in 2017 as

they do in 2016, they might be able to accelerate some payments and shift some deductions from next year to this year. For example, if they’re itemizing in 2016 and can pay real-estate tax in two installments, they might consider making the payment in 2016 that would normally be due in early 2017. In all these cases, taxpayers should remember that tax planning occurs over a multi-year horizon and paying an extra amount this year could hurt some taxpayers in 2017. 4. Estimate income and determine if a tax benefit phaseout could affect the tax return. Most tax benefits generally phase out, usually as an individual’s income increases. At a certain point, the tax benefit may be eliminated altogether or it may be available only at a small amount. If taxpayers are close to a phaseout range of a tax benefit they’re otherwise eligible for, they could try to lower their adjusted gross income (AGI) so they can claim the tax benefit, for example by contributing as much as possible to a pre-tax retirement plan, such as a 401(k) or 403(b), or a deductible IRA. 5. Contribute to a retirement account to lower adjusted gross income and taxable income. Lowering AGI and taxable income is always good, but especially if the taxpayer is getting phased out of a tax benefit. Contributing to a pre-tax retirement plan lowers both AGI and taxable income. These plans include 401(k)s, 403(b)s, deductible IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs and SEPs. Taxpayers have until Dec. 31 to make contributions to 401(k)s and 403(b)s for 2016. They have until April 16, 2017, to make contributions to IRAs and some other plans. 6. Donate to a charity to lower taxable income. If a taxpayer itemizes, they can lower their taxable income by donating to charity. They must give to a qualified charity

by Dec. 31 and keep the necessary documentation, which will vary depending on the type and amount of the gift. 7. Consider a qualified charitable rollover to lower adjusted gross income and taxable income. Taxpayers who are at least 70.5 should consider a trustee-to-trustee transfer of some or all of their required minimum distributions to a qualified charity. Doing so lowers AGI which, in turn, lowers the amount of Social Security subject to tax. 8. Sell certain securities. Taxpayers with a large net capital gain so far this year might want to sell some stock to generate a loss before year end. Doing so could reduce the amount of tax they pay this year. But in any case, taxpayers should not let possible tax savings cause them to make a decision contrary to their overall investment strategy or financial needs. 9. Investigate before buying mutual funds. Taxpayers who are planning to invest a large amount in a mutual fund should find out when the fund declares and pays its dividend. Confirm that the fund isn’t declaring and paying a large amount of dividends before the end of the year. Buying shares before the dividend is declared could mean they’ll increase their income by the amount of the dividend. This is true even if they reinvest the dividend in new shares. They should look for this information at the fund company’s website. After taxpayers make their final tax moves for 2016, they can look forward to filing their return, and then start tax planning – or procrastinating – for 2017.

been spurred by subsidies, which are a small fraction of those given to the fossil fuel industry. I can already power my electric vehicle on 100 percent wind power for 1 cent per mile ($10 to go 1,000 miles) through my utilities overnight charging program to buy otherwise wasted wind energy. A standard mix of electricity during the day is 3 cents per mile. Even at the remarkably low cost of $2 per gallon, a 40 MPG car costs 5 cents per mile. My switch from an SUV to my EV earlier this year is going to put $1,000 in my

pocket every year in fuel energy savings, and that’s not even factoring in the dramatically lower maintenance costs of EVs. A policy like that described by Citizens’ Climate Lobby will work to hasten the transition for everyone over to renewables. Fossil fuels will become increasingly expensive, pushing more and more people toward the already cheaper renewable options. This drives these remarkable savings even higher as the market gains additional efficiencies of scale, and more of our money is spent in America

instead of being shipped off to foreign countries who may not have our best interests at heart. CCL’s dividend also helps maintain our freedom to choose fuel sources during the transition. We could wait as the market is quite clearly headed in this direction, but I’d rather push it along as fast as possible to get more money into the hands of people as quickly as we can.

Education Here’s a change: District 194 levy will decrease in 2017 School Board certifies levy by Laura Adelmann SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

For the first time in at least a decade, District 194 property owners are expected to pay less than they did last year for the school portion of their property taxes. Lakeville Area Public School Board members at their Dec. 13 meeting unanimously approved certifying the 2017 levy, which will drop from $43.5 million to $43.2 million next year. As a result, a residential property valued at $300,000 will pay an estimated $52 less in the district portion of their property tax bill, assuming a 14.6 percent property value increase according to a chart by the district’s financial consultant, Ehlers. A commercial property valued at $5 million is expected to pay $1,020 less in 2017 for the district portion of property taxes, according to the Ehlers’

calculations. The district’s .8 percent levy reduction ($36,060) resulted because of multiple factors, including $550,039 in savings from reduced levy for bond payments and last May’s action of refinancing bonds, said Michael Baumann, District 194 executive director of business services. Another first in 2017: the district’s levy will include $700,000 to fund QComp. The amount is about $280,000 less than the district is legally allowed to levy after School Board members cited concerns about the potential of a nearly $1 million levy increase for the newly created program. Q-Comp is the district’s voluntary techer performance pay incentive program it has established with the teacher’s union through the collective bargaining process. Under the program, the district is planning to add instructional coaches to help new or struggling teachers and provide onthe-job professional devel-

opment. Yet another budget first comes in 2017: because the district paid off its lease for the Alternative Learning Center, the district will also no longer make lease payments, resulting in a cost reduction of about $115,000. The district also will have increased costs, including $469,098 next year to cover retiree health insurance benefits. Baumann said the district does not issue bonds for the benefit expenses, but has a “pay as you go� plan and the cost will fluctuate every year. Total levy adjustments resulted in a general fund decrease of $1.02 million, which will gain from state aid and other sources and is estimated to total $26.1 million in 2017, a .6 percent increase from the end of 2016 levy . The district’s projected balance of its general fund at the end of 2017 is estimated to be $11.7 million with another $681,427 in its restricted general fund balance. At the end of its 2016

fiscal year on June 30, Baumann said the general fund balance was $16.5 million and its restricted general fund balance was $1.2 million. All seven district fund balances are expected to total $83.7 million at the end of fiscal year 2017. Baumann said the district receives about 75 percent of its income from state aid, 21 percent from property taxes, about 2 percent in other local revenue and 2 percent in federal revenue. The district’s biggest general fund expense is salaries and benefits, which Baumann said comprised about 80 percent of its $128.7 million 2016-17 budget. “We are a human capital operation,� Baumann said. “Lots of teachers with our students, and so that’s where the majority of our costs go with regard to the general fund.� School Board Member Bob Erickson thanked Baumann and the retiring District 194 Controller Jabber Alsiddiqui. He called their work

“the best budget document that’s ever been prepared� since he has been on the School Board. He also noted the refinancing of Lakeville South High School and reconstruction of Oak Hills Elementary will yield a seven-year consecutive debt service benefit in reducing the previous debt as of favorable interest rates. “There’s six more subsequent years of debt service savings that we’re going to realize, which will be beneficial to our taxpayers,� Erickson said. Erickson also recognized the work of Superintendent Lisa Snyder, Education MinnesotaLakeville and the administration for finding an alternative to implement Q-Comp and reduce the cost of it when the final piece of the program is implemented in 2017-18. He said the alternative allowed the district to avoid placing all the financial burden on taxpayers in 2017. School Board Member Judy Keliher called

the size of the reduction “rather nice.� She complimented Alsiddiqui and Baumann for their effort and called the way it has been consistently communicated has been an “absolutely totally transparent process.� She said the result is a “very challenging� achievement. “You both should be very proud of what your office has done,� Keliher said. School Board Member Jim Skelly noted that the district is not only reducing taxes but adding services in the form of QComp’s alternative teacher compensation. He said it is an investment in quality, performance and support for their teaching staff. “Although we like to talk about the spending portion of it, the reduction, we are also investing at the same time,� Skelly said.

Education School District 194 land sale is in question Post not responding to district representative’s outreach by Laura Adelmann SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The future of a $1.6 million land sale by District 194 to Summit Development is in question after Post Consumer Brands invoked terms of a 1995 covenant agreement attached to the property. Summit Development owner Louis Olsen had proposed to build detached townhomes on the 24-acre property, contingent on rezoning the property from office park to residential. Terms of the sale agreement specify the purchase of the land, located off 210th Street and adjacent to Post Consumer Brands headquarters, must be completed and city final plat approvals obtained within 180 days, Dec. 26. The city has not yet formally reviewed the plat, according to city records. Lakeville Planning Director Daryl Morey said they have had no contact from any Summit Devel-

opment officials for weeks. “As far as staff’s concerned, the project’s on hold until we hear from the developer...,� Morey said. “We haven’t heard boo from him.� Summit Development officials recently requested the district contact Post officials to verify their final position on the covenant terms, according to District 194 Executive Director of Business Services Michael Baumann. He said as of Dec. 13, Post Consumer Brands has not responded to the agent’s Dec. 5 inquiry. The School Board held a closed meeting Nov. 25 for discussion regarding the land sale, and in an unusual move at the board’s Dec. 13 meeting, School Board Member Kathy Lewis requested changes to minutes from that meeting. She said she wanted the record to be adjusted to show the district’s representative, commercial Realtor Bruce Rydeen with Cerron Commercial Properties, attended the meeting. She also requested the minutes reflect comments she made after she and School Board Member

Judy Keliher cast the two lone votes against closing the meeting. The motion to close the meeting was made by School Board Member Bob Erickson and seconded by School Board Member Terry Lind. Lewis noted state statute says the public body “may� close a meeting and she did not believe the items on the agenda justified the reason for closing the meeting. “I did not think the purpose of the meeting, the topic of the meeting and the discussion really met the true legal requirement of the session,� Lewis said. School Board members approved Lewis’ requested changes to the minutes, with the addition of the key words: “in her opinion.� School Board Member Bob Erickson requested the caveat because he said he respects Lewis’ right to say that, but it is her opinion. “Otherwise, absent that, this would not be appropriate or accurate,� Erickson said. “It would be a legal position that I don’t think the statute supports, but she’s entitled to

her opinion and I respect that.� School Board Member Jim Skelly said they should be careful about having discussions in a public meeting about what transpired in a closed meeting. “This is mainly procedural, I understand that,� Skelly said. “But it’s a little uneasy to have that discussion here in a public board meeting, I think we followed all the rules on this.� Lewis agreed, and said that is why she tried to put it within context of procedure. In an interview, Keliher said she also did not believe the School Board should go into closed session. She said the board has to be careful about how they determine to go into a closed session, calling transparency a “huge issue� in the community. “I just think we have to be very careful and not abuse the ability to be able to go into closed session,� Keliher said. She noted that going into closed session for property purchase was put in state statute years ago because of lobbying efforts of Lakeville city and

school officials. “It wasn’t so we could talk about land deals in closed session,� Keliher said. “It was so that we could discuss our strategies and our pricing as a government entity, so people don’t take advantage of the fact that we’re a government entity and think they can get the piein-the-sky dollars for land because the school district was buying it.� In an interview, Lewis said she does not believe the School Board violated open meeting laws, because the statute says the public body “may� go into closed session. “It doesn’t say you should or could,� Lewis said. “It just says you may close the meeting.� Lewis said she thinks the district needs to be more transparent, but respects the board’s decision and will uphold it.

owner Louis Olsen. City officials suggested he hold a meeting with them after adjacent neighbors had quickly organized against the proposed development, speaking at public meetings, writing numerous emails to City Council and School Board members and submitting a petition against it. Post Consumer Brand’s covenant prohibits development for 30 years of residential housing on the 25 acres of land, located off 210th Street and adjacent to Post Consumer Brands headquarters. Post Consumer Brands Corporate Communications Director Linda Fisher in November told Sun Thisweek the company intends to preserve the property from residential development. She said in an email that preserving the property “affords us flexibility to use our property to meet Post’s covenant the needs of our business The existence of Post without impacting an adConsumer Brand’s cov- jacent residential neighenant on the property borhood.� proposed for residential development was revealed Laura Adelmann is at laura.

Eighth-grader is new District 191 spelling champion Yana Khetiya practiced an hour a day for a couple of weeks to prepare for the 33rd annual BurnsvilleEagan-Savage School District 191 Spelling Bee on Dec. 5. It paid off. The Eagle Ridge Middle School eighth-grader emerged as the champion from among the 28 best spellers from around the district and took home the big trophy.

The event went about 15 rounds with “competition� as the winning word. This was Yana’s second trip to the district bee. Two years ago, as a sixth-grader from Harriet Bishop Elementary, she was disappointed with her performance. “I was nervous, and messed up spelling the word ‘forty’ which I knew,� she said. But it was a different

story this year. “I was not nervous this time because I’d been through it before and I had prepared for it,� said Yana. She is good with words and loves to read, especially mythology and dystopian novels. She recently completed the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer. Other favorite authors are J. K. Rowling and Rick Riordan.

“Yana is a positive leader at Eagle Ridge,� says Principal Don Leake. “She works hard, has a great attitude and is a talented student.� Math is her favorite subject. “Because wherever you go in the world, it will be the same, with the same symbols and concepts,� said Yana. Her future plans include becoming a medical doctor, specifically a cardiologist or neurologist. Yana will go on to a regional spelling bee, if one takes place. Joey Vollmers, a seventh-grader from St. John’s School, was the runner-up in the District 191 spelling bee. The spelling bee was recorded and will be shown on Educational Channel 18 and on the district’s website at www.isd191. District 191 spelling bee champion Yana Khetiya (Photo org. submitted)

Apple Valley, ex-employee settle harassment case Settlement includes $100,000 payment by Andrew Miller SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The city of Apple Valley has reached a settlement with a former Police Department employee who alleged she suffered years of sexual harassment and assault. Amanda Barnes, who worked as a records technician in the Police Department for eight years, resigned in May. She filed a sex-discrimination complaint with the Minnesota Department of Human Rights following her resignation. The settlement, reached Nov. 21, includes a $100,000 payment to Barnes. The city, which denied any wrongdoing in the settlement, also agreed to conduct additional training for supervisors in city government who handle sexual harassment complaints, along with revisions to city policies subjecting supervisors to disciplinary action if they fail to report complaints. In an interview with this newspaper Dec. 11, Barnes described a sexually hostile work environment during her employment with the city, in which she was subjected to inappropriate remarks

and physical contact by multiple police officers both on and off city property. During Barnes’s employment with the Police Department, the city twice conducted investigations into her claims of sexual harassment and assault, bringing in a third-party investigator. In the first investigation, “there were some allegations that were substantiated, but many were not,� said Jana O’Leary Sullivan, a League of Minnesota Cities attorney representing the city. In the second investigation, “the bulk of (Barnes’s claims) were not substantiated,� O’Leary Sullivan said. “The city took Ms. Barnes’ complaints seriously and they believe they addressed them thoroughly with the investigations.� Neither of the investigations, nor the settlement, resulted in disciplinary action to officers whom Barnes alleged had harassed or assaulted her, Barnes said. O’Leary Sullivan said the city opted for a settlement with Barnes to bring finality to the matter, as the case could have lasted years — first at the Minnesota Department of Human Rights and then at court. “Ms. Barnes was a good employee and the city really did want to part on good ways with her,� O’Leary Sullivan said.

The League of Minnesota Cities, to which the city of Apple Valley belongs, paid $90,000 of the $100,000 settlement, and the city paid the remaining $10,000. According to a press release from Shannon Law, the law firm representing Barnes, reports of sexual harassment by female employees in Apple Valley city government have not been limited to Barnes’ case in recent years. “Barnes and other female employees repeatedly reported a sexually hostile work environment at Apple Valley in the past few years,� the release from Shannon Law stated. Barnes, who said she was diagnosed with posttraumatic stress disorder during the second city investigation into her claims, said she wanted to publicly share her experience in hopes of preventing similar situations from occurring to others. “I want to help other people in this situation. It’s not easy to come forward — you are so looked down upon and doubted,� she said. “If people are getting away with this repetitively, it’s sickening.� Since her resignation, Barnes has returned to college and is pursuing a career in human services.

Cantata at 10 a.m. Sunday, Dec. 18, is looking at the Christmas story from a new slant: What was it like for Joseph to hear from his betrothed that she was pregnant? And that this was all reportedly the doing of the Holy Spirit? What kind of emotional struggle did he go through? How did his buddies in the community react to that news? And how did Mary and Joseph’s faith in the reality of God’s intervention in the world ultimately carry them to follow God’s guidance through the process? With a script written by Jerri Johnson, PCA’s director of music, the cantata borrows Christmas music that explores the complex mix of doubt and faith experienced by Joseph and Mary and the community in which they lived. The story raises questions we deal with today: What if couples have a relationship that the community is convinced is wrong, but they know in their hearts is right? How can people follow what they believe is God’s guidance, when everyone around them tells them they’re wrong? Presbyterian Church of the Apostles is at 701 E. 130th St. in Burnsville.

Bauer, a recent St. Olaf College graduate, has taught English in two different California high schools and most recently was a manager of the Sylvan Learning Center in Coon Rapids. She said she has been contemplating a career change in recent months and felt journalism was the direction she wanted to go. With the new reporting team, Johnson and Rogers will be offering combined coverage of Rosemount. Rogers, a former sports editor at the newspaper, has been the Farmington editor for the past three years.

Among the major issues Rogers has written about in the past few years are special levy proposals, the district’s Innovation Zone efforts and economic development issues. “Through the years I’ve met many interesting people while covering Farmington,� Rogers said. “It’s a vibrant community with lots to offer. I hope that I’ve kept residents informed about the city they live in and the people they share it with.� Rogers will concentrate on municipal government, business and civic life in Rosemount, while Rogers and Johnson will give a combined approach on education and school news. Municipal government in Eagan will be Rogers’ primary focus along with business, civic life and school news in Eagan. “I’m excited about the transition to Eagan and Rosemount, both of which are closer to home for me,� Rogers said. “Change is good. I’m up to the challenge. I’ve already met several wonderful people in both communities and I know I’m just getting started.� Johnson will be covering district-level operations

published in the St. Paul Pioneer Press and ThreeSixty’s summer magazine. She is a National Honor Society member at BHS and participates in College Possible, which helps students reach and navigate college. She’s been accepted for admission to the U next year — eyeing studies in pre-dental biology or biochemistry or communications and journalism — but is holding out hope for Northwestern University or DePaul University. “I just want to go to Chicago,� said HoangLong, who in her short time at the U has been involved with the Asian American Student Union and the Vietnamese Student Association of Minnesota. “I feel like it’s so important to understand who’s around you and to keep a positive spirit while you’re around your classmates,� HoangLong said. “If you get to know your community better, you’ll feel more comfortable and you’ll do more to help out.�

I don’t get to experience it,� she said. “It’s fine. Just knowing it’s there, it’s cool.� She has also served as a student leader for Youth Frontiers retreats the organization did last year with BHS juniors. HoangLong is an active member of BrainPower in a Backpack, a student group that fills backpacks with weekend food for needy District 191 students. She has served on the leadership team of Bowls for BrainPower — a BrainPower in a Backpack fundraiser — and was saddened by the unexpected death in March of BHS art teacher Tim Hammes, who led the bowl-making pottery event. “His project was so special and important and for such a good cause, I was hoping it would live on,� said HoangLong, whose father is Doai Hoang and mother is Tram Nguyen. She helps students in the after-school Partners Achieving Learning Success program at M.W. Savage Elementary and is a member of the ThreeSixty Journalism project teen news team at the University of St. Thomas. HoangLong has had her work

scholarship from the Luther Automotive Group. “Samantha epitomizes leadership,� wrote Katie Burke, a BHS English teacher and BurnsvilleStrong adviser who nominated HoangLong for the award. Her volunteerism hasn’t waned even though she spends most of her days on the U campus, Burke wrote: “Samantha is always a positive ambassador for our school and the organizations that she represents. She makes it to every event she can and doesn’t just show up, but takes an active role to make the events better and involve everyone.� Last year HoangLong joined BurnsvilleStrong, which started as a hashtag and grief-support effort after a series of tragedies involving Burnsville students and recent graduates. Its mission now encompasses a host of leadership roles, including promoting academic support for students and lending a hand to new students and students in distress. “Our motto is to inspire, support and unite the com-

munity,� HoangLong said. “So we do a lot of work to spread positivity around this district (School District 191).� She has served on BurnsvilleStrong’s Positive Outreach Committee. “Last year we did simple things like writing positive quotes on the girls bathroom mirrors or handing out Valentines to the bus drivers and custodians — simple things like that. The little things,� HoangLong said. She’s “one of the kindest students I know,� Burke wrote. “She is always trying to include others, reach out and make people feel comfortable in what can sometimes be uncomfortable situations.� HoangLong helped form and lead another BurnsvilleStrong group to prop up the student mood during last year’s high school construction and to promote the high school expansion and other Vision One91 improvements underway in the district. Now that HoangLong is hanging out on a college campus, she hasn’t had the full benefit of her refashioned high school. “I knew everything that was going to be added;

Sports SSC swimming: Defending champions win opener Eagan wins eight events against Farmington

relay in 1:34.87.

by Mike Shaughnessy

Ethan Elumba won two events for Apple Valley in its dual-meet opener at Shakopee. After scoring 170.15 points to take first in diving, Elumba came back five events later to win the 100 backstroke in 1:05.19. He also competed on two Eagles relays that took third place. Also winning for Apple Valley were Chase Brustad in the 500 freestyle (5:14.07), Jakob Fossen in the 100 breaststroke (1:07.16) and the 400 freestyle relay team of Brustad, Fossen, Branson Skogrand and Erik Vogel in the 400 freestyle relay (3:57.36).

Defending South Suburban Conference boys swimming champion Eagan won its opening dual meet of the season Friday night, as did Lakeville South, Eastview and Shakopee. The two SSC teams that did not swim Friday, Rosemount and Burnsville, were scheduled to meet Tuesday night at Burnsville. Eagan, which was third in the 2016 Class AA meet after winning the state title the year before, defeated Farmington 93-88 at Dakota Hills Middle School. The Wildcats had a 30-point lead with two events remaining before swimming exhibition in those final two races. The Wildcats had eight first places and also had the fastest time in the 100yard breaststroke, one of the events where they swam exhibition. Jasper Appleton won two events, the 200 freestyle (1 minute, 49.36 seconds) and 100 butterfly (54.44). Colin Kehoe was first in the 50 freestyle (23.07) and 100 freestyle (49.57). Max

(Photo by Mike Shaughnessy) Stigman (200 individual medley, 2:02.19) and Jordan Nguyen (diving, 224.20 points) also won individual events. Stigman’s time of 1:00.99 in the 100 breaststroke was the fastest in the varsity meet by more than seven seconds even though the Wildcats did not get team points for it. Appleton, Stigman, Michael Kehoe and Colin Kehoe were first in the 200 medley relay in 1:39.94. Michael Kehoe, P.J. Collins, Colin Kehoe and Appleton won the 200 freestyle relay in 1:31.17. Farmington’s Austin Kueck won the 500 freestyle in 5:01.76 and had a

seven-second edge over the runner-up. Ben Gunderson took first in the 100 backstroke in 56.82. Tanner Hubbard was first in the 100 breaststroke in 1:08.41. Kueck, Eric Heddinger, Ian Alexander and Gunderson finished first in the 400 freestyle relay in 3:28.77.

Eastview 101 Prior Lake 83 The Lightning took first in eight events on its way to victory at Prior Lake. Eastview senior Sam Pekarek, runner-up in the 200 individual medley and

100 breaststroke at the 2016 state Class AA meet, won both of his individual events in the 2016-17 season opener. He swam the 200 IM in 1:58.46 and touched in 48.12 in the 100 freestyle. Sjon Greseth (200 freestyle, 1:51.71), Drew Reinhardt (100 butterfly, 55.92), Ben Montgomery (100 backstroke, 58.94) and Jack Poppitz (100 breaststroke, 1:04.39) also won individual events for Eastview. Montgomery, Pekarek, Reinhardt and Soren Gloege won the 200 medley relay in 1:42.02, while Sam Hagen, Poppitz, Reinhardt and Greseth took the 200 freestyle

Based on rankings, Eagan’s boys basketball victory over North St. Paul last week would be considered an upset. But the Wildcats want to reach the point where a victory over a ranked opponent is no longer viewed as a surprise. A 68-58 home-court victory over the 15thranked Polars on Dec. 8 was “a good win for us,” Eagan coach Matt Vollum said. “I was happy with how we competed, and we saw a lot of improvement over our Chaska game (a 77-57 loss to the eighthranked Hawks on Dec. 3).” Eagan is 2-1 after defeating Henry Sibley 7955 at home last Saturday. While it might sound odd to say the Wildcats are trying to build on the momentum of a 10-19 season, that’s exactly what they want to do. They

500 freestyle (5:33.88), and Torborg’s firsts in the 50 freestyle (22.40) and 100 backstroke (55.19), helped South build an insurmountable 95-60 lead after 10 events. The Cougars’ Tate Leverenz was first in the 200 individual medley (2:07.83), with Andrew Lind first in the 100 freestyle (50.94). Darrin Koblas scored 158.55 points to take first in diving. Ray Bares, Leverenz, Torborg and Brody Knips swam the 200 medley relay in 1:44.07, edging the top Lakeville North team by less than two-tenths of a second. Bares, Leverenz, Berg and Lind took first in the 200 freestyle relay in 1:34.73. Berg, Hayden Epinette, Lind and Torborg turned in a time of 3:33.46 in the 400 freestyle relay even though they swam exhibition in that event. North’s Trepanier had first-place times of 50.89 in the 100 butterfly and 1:00.65 in the 100 breaststroke. Tanner Hall, Tommy Krueger, Owen Teague and Brennan Jensen were first in the 400 freestyle relay in 4:03.18.

reached the Class 4A, Section 3 championship game last March, beating Park of Cottage Grove and Burnsville before losing to Apple Valley. “I think our guys saw what they’re capable of doing and want to be in that position again,” Vollum said. “We got stronger in the off-season. That showed up in the North St. Paul game, where we had 28 offensive rebounds. I thought we outworked them, but I also think it was because of our strength.” The Wildcats return two of their top five scorers from last season, junior forward Jaren Tschetter and senior forward Jake VanWyk. VanWyk has had a particularly strong start, averaging 15.3 points and 11 rebounds in the first three games. He had 12 points against North St. Paul and 19 against Henry Sibley. Jackson McCullum, a

junior guard, scored 12 against North St. Paul and 11 against Sibley. Senior guard John Streed is averaging 11 points a game and had 13 in the victory over North St. Paul. “John didn’t play much on varsity last year,” Vollum said. “But he’s always been a good shooter and he looks really comfortable out there.” Matt Thompson, a senior forward, has averaged about 11 rebounds a game. Guards Grant Weis and Cam Lachance scored nine and eight points in the North St. Paul game. Another guard, senior Owen Pixler, scored nine against Henry Sibley. Vollum said the Wildcats could use as many as 10 players in varsity games. Scoring, he said, doesn’t look like it will be a problem. Defensively, “we’re definitely a manto-man team, and we’ll look to press some and try to get some transition

baskets,” the coach said. The Wildcats return to the court at 2 p.m. Saturday at Bloomington Jefferson, then open the South Suburban Conference schedule Tuesday, Dec. 20, at home against Prior Lake. This week gave the Wildcats a luxury they’re not likely to have again this season – five uninterrupted days of practice. “Even at the start of the season we had three days of practice, then played some scrimmages,” Vollum said. “It’s good to have five straight days of practice now. We’ll do a lot of individual stuff and we’ll have time to work a little more on defense, like defending ball screens. We’ve had three games to see what we need to work on, and now we have the time to do it.” Email Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecminc.com.

The biggest requirement for Thursday’s South Suburban Conference Nordic skiing meet at Valleywood Golf Course has been fulfilled, thanks to a storm that dropped at least 6 inches of snow on the metro area last weekend. Unlike last week’s conference opener at Cleary Lake Park where the athletes needed to use roller skis, on Thursday they can bring their snow skis to compete on the real thing. Thursday’s varsity races are scheduled to be threeleg-by-3-kilometer freestyle relays with the boys race starting at 3:15 p.m. and the girls at approximately 3:45. The conference features four teams that competed in the 2016 state meet – Eagan and Burnsville on the boys side, and Burnsville and Eastview on the girls side. It also has the 2016 state pursuit runnerup, Eagan senior Patrick Acton. Eagan senior Ryan Steger, who was eighth in the 2016 state meet, had the fastest boys time of 13 minutes, 13 seconds in the 5-kilometer roller ski meet Dec. 6 at Cleary Lake Park. Acton was second in 13:25. Lakeville South senior Tyler Haroldson was fourth in 14:05, Eagan senior Ryan Conroy was sixth in 14:39, Kevin Gunawan of ISD 196 (Apple Valley, Eastview, Rosemount and the School for Environmental Studies) was eighth in 14:58, Eagan’s Dylan Schuller was

ninth in 15:17, Ben Barry of Lakeville South was 10th in 15:29 and Nathaniel Blichfeldt of Burnsville finished 11th in 15:33. Blichfeldt, a senior, was 11th in pursuit at the 2016 state meet. Eagan was first in the boys team competition with 174 points, 13 more than Prior Lake. Lakeville North and Lakeville South will compete as a combined team during the regular season and placed third at last week’s meet with 134 points. Burnsville (109), ISD 196 (94) and Northfield (82) completed the standings. Burnsville junior Kelly Koch, 11th at the 2016 state girls pursuit race, took first in the SSC roller ski race in 14:26. Second in 16:03 was Lakeville North senior Emma Drangstveit, who also helped lead the combined Lakeville squad to first in the team standings. Burnsville senior Krista Holmstrom took third in 16:15. Violet Tessier of Lakeville South came in fifth in 17:30. Lakeville skiers Brianne Brewster (South) and Monica Toussaint (North) were seventh and eighth in 17:43 and 17:44. Tess Grunklee of ISD 196 (the girls co-op consists of Apple Valley, Eagan, Rosemount and SES) was 11th in 17:56 and Gabby Kraemer of Eastview was 12th in 18:07. Lakeville scored 169 points in the team competition, 26 more than Prior Lake. Burnsville was third with 139. Northfield placed fourth, with Eastview (115) and ISD 196 (47) taking fifth and sixth.

Burnsville boys are looking to pick up the tempo Basketball team wants to use its speed by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Moving up in the South Suburban Conference boys basketball standings is a tough climb. The league has at least two legitimate state championship contenders, plus several others with players headed to Division I and Division II college programs. How does Burnsville, which

finished last in the league last season, plan to escape the basement? One thing the Blaze doesn’t plan to do is slow games to a crawl to keep the score artificially close. But if opponents want to slow the pace, Blaze coach Matt Eppen said his team can adjust. “We’re fast, no doubt, and we want to use our speed,” Eppen said. “We want to play at a pretty quick tempo. But one of the strengths of our group is we can compete well if the score is in the 70s and we can do the same if it’s in the 50s.”

The Blaze won one of its first three games, including a 7357 victory at Chanhassen last Friday. “Even in our first two games (losses to New Prague and Eden Prairie) there were stretches where we played well,” Eppen said. “Our game against New Prague was close the entire second half, and against Eden Prairie we had the lead at one point in the second half.” Eppen expects to have three sophomores and a freshman in the regular rotation, but senior guard Jackson Martens will drive a lot of what the Blaze

does. “He’s a three-sport athlete, but the thing that really stands out is his leadership. He’s been a great example for our younger players,” Eppen said. “When he comes into a game, he can play positions one through four. He’s really versatile.” Martens had 15 points in the victory over Chanhassen. Junior forward Ty Miklowski and senior guard Matt Baisch also scored in double figures in the Chanhassen game, and sophomore guard Marcus Shepley pulled down seven rebounds. Six-foot-six senior forward

Abdijabbar Mursal led Burnsville with 18 points in a 68-53 loss at Eden Prairie on Dec. 6. Mursal came in as a bit of a wild card because he did not play for the Blaze varsity last season but looks like he’s in a position to help the team this year, Eppen said. Baisch can play point guard but is likely to spend more time at shooting guard as the Blaze expects him to be one of the team’s top offensive players. Sophomore Julian Hutchinson will see time at point guard.

SANTA, from 1A son. Both Catherine and Sean were working long hours but wanted to enjoy the magic of the holidays with their son, who was 3 at the time. “The thing about Elf on the Shelf, it was such a big daily commitment,� Catherine Green said. “Adventure Santa is more flexible. He comes out when you want him to come out.� Elf on the Shelf is a tradition in which a toy hides DIESSNER, from 1A neapolis) had just begun to build this retreat center out in Lakeville and Farmington and were looking for someone to develop programs and make it into an ecumenical center,� Diessner said. “I did that for a couple of years and did some teaching out there.� But the pull of the family business was strong. Diessner’s wife, Barbara, is the daughter of Lloyd Engelsma, who was a bookkeeper for KrausAnderson Construction when he bought the Minneapolis business in 1938. Barbara’s twin brother, Bruce, is now chairman of the board of KrausAnderson Cos., which encompasses construction, insurance, mortgage banking, accounting, real estate development, capital leasing and resort manageCLINIC, from 1A It will continue to offer pediatric care along with internal medicine, OB/GYN and podiatry services. The old location at 1440 Duckwood Drive will close as of Dec. 16 with an urgent care opening at the

in people’s homes, spying on children and providing other assorted high jinks. “We figured there was a lot of other families with a short amount of time who wanted to make the most of their time with their kids,� Sean Green said. “Something more flexible. Something with more activities.� Last year the family beta-tested Adventure Santas with about 40 friends. “It was fun to see how other families used it,�

Sean Green said. After officially launching on Nov. 1 this year, they’ve entered the big unknown, reaching out to people all over the United States, hoping it clicks. Perhaps one day they will find a distributor. “There are some ups and downs,� Sean Green said. “Not everyone gets it right away.� They run the business out of their basement, filling orders while surrounded by boxes of Santas.

They make daily trips to the post office and spend hours marketing their venture. Coming up with the design and the story was the fun part. Sean Green is an engineer by trade and Catherine Green works in human resources, so they have had to figure out the details with some help. They hired a design firm to polish off the design of the doll and the packaging. They also hired an author and illus-

trator to put the finishing touches on the book. It’s been an adventure, no doubt. They hope to find other families who want to go on adventures as well. The primary place to buy one is at www.adventuresanta.com. They will also be at the Carousel Craft Show, Dec. 17 at the Maplewood Community Center.

ment. Diessner joined the company in 1983, managing office buildings for Kraus-Anderson Realty. “Because of the way Kraus-Anderson conducts its business and because I was so close to the owner and founder and leader of that company and saw the high ethical standards with which we were expected to conduct ourselves and were part of the core values of KrausAnderson, it was an easier transition than one might think,� he said. Diessner was promoted to vice president of KrausAnderson Realty in 1991 and. In 1993 his fatherin-law put him in charge of the insurance division, hoping to kick-start the 20-year-old business. “They weren’t growing very fast,� Diessner said. The insurance company was headquartered in

another Kraus-Anderson building, the old Valley Ridge mall at Burnsville Parkway and County Road 5. “Every time someone would move out, we’d take over the space,� said Diessner, who moved with his wife to Credit River Township after raising five children in Burnsville. “We’d have a patchwork of offices connected by hallways.� He diversified the book of business, adding manufacturers, municipalities, school districts and retailers to Kraus-Anderson’s roster of construction-oriented insurance clients. “I really took the perspective of loss control, of risk management, as opposed to the selling of insurance products,� Diessner said. Under his leadership the company developed a specialized practice called

Comptrol that helps employers control workers compensation costs. It developed a human resources consulting group to help companies manage their employment insurance liabilities. “A lot of our midsized companies need that kind of help but don’t necessarily need to have a full-time HR person on staff, or can’t afford that,� Diessner said. His company does quarterly service projects in the community, following the boss’s example. Diessner has been a Burnsville chamber member for more than 25 years, including past service as board chair. He’s a former Burnsville Rotary club president and served two terms as board chair for Community Action Council. “His list of leadership in nonprofit organizations

is among the most impressive of anyone to receive this award,� said Tom Taylor, the chamber’s 2015 Business Person of the Year. Diessner serves on the scholarship fundraising committee of the Association of General Contracts and has been a board member with Homeward Bound, a nonprofit for special-needs children. “It’s a wonderful organization,� Diessner said. “They take care of children that have very specific and severe needs. They have special homes and a residential setting for these children and just do an outstanding job of bringing the highest quality of life possible to people who have a lot of challenges.�

new place at 5 p.m. Dec. 16. The main clinic will be open Dec. 19. They’re planning on transferring much of their equipment over the weekend. “It’s coming down to the wire,� Wahman said. “The movers are coming.

We want to be able to serve patients throughout. It’s tricky but it’s all really well planned out.� The new location was designed with using sustainable business practices, Wahman said, from a more efficient HVAC facilities to low emission

glue on the wall paper. It will also be easier for employees to bike to work. “We’ll have showers now and a bike rack,� Wahman said. “It’s right next to the park there, too. So employees can use the park during their breaks.�

Kids holiday classic comes to Lakeville stage ‘The Best Christmas Pageant Ever’ runs through Dec. 29 by Andrew Miller SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Trouble is brewing at a church’s annual Christmas play after six misfit, delinquent siblings land roles in the show. That’s the premise behind “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever,� which local theater group The Play’s the Thing Productions is presenting this month at the Lakeville Area Arts Center. “It’s a very well-loved show — kids and families and parents know it well, but most of them have read it but never seen it,� said director Dayna Railton, founder of The Play’s the Thing. “It’s about the Herdman kids — they basically terrorize their teachers, other students and parents, and they go to auditions for the Christ-

mas pageant because they hear the church gives free treats, and they snatch all the major roles.� The production is adapted from Barbara Robinson’s bestselling 1971 book of the same, which was made into a TV movie in 1983. The Lakeville show, which runs through Dec. 29, features a cast of over 30 actors, made up primarily of youths. Railton said she “double cast� the show, with one cast of actors in speaking parts and the other in group scenes in a given performance, and the casts switching for the following performance. Audiences will enjoy the fun and playful spirit of the production, Railton said, as well as the show’s message. “The Herdmans wreak havoc and cause problems,

but they do get the spirit of the season,� she said. “The lesson is that things and people are not always what they seem, and there are lessons of kindness, tolerance and humanity to be learned from the Nativity story.� Show times for “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever� are 7:30 p.m. Dec. 15-17, 21-23 and 29, and 2 p.m. Dec. 18. Tickets are $14 and are available online at www.LakevilleAreaArtsCenter.com or by calling 952-985-4640. Following “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever,� The Play’s the Thing plans to present “Sister Act: The Musical� at the Lakeville Area Arts Center in May.
