A Dakota County Grand Jury has concluded Eagan police Sgt. Nathan Tennessen was legally justified when he used deadly force during an incident Aug. 28 in Eagan, according to Dakota County Attorney James Backstrom. Tennessen responded to a report of a male shooting a handgun near an apartment/townhome complex at 1284 Ironwood Lane and used deadly force in the shooting death of Justin Lee KulhanekDerks, 37, of Eagan. He was one of three officers responding to the scene around noon following multiple reports of a person firing a handgun from a motor vehicle. According to a Dakota County Attorney’s Office news release, KulhanekDerks ignored verbal commands, started backing out of the parking spot and fired at the officers. Two of the three officers fired back and Tennessen struck KulhanekDerks in the head. After approaching the vehicle, they found KulhanekDerks slumped over in the driver’s seat with a 9mm

Accusations fly at District 194 board meeting Keliher, Lewis claim Snyder’s resignation was not her choice by Laura Adelmann SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

#

during an Oct. 11 closed session that lasted approximately 30 minutes, according to District 194 meeting minutes. The issue was to be discussed again in November, but was removed from the agenda before the meeting. Snyder said she chose to not enter into negotiations on an additional contract, and as a result, she asked Volk to remove the discussion item on this topic from the November agenda. In an interview, Volk said she did not force Snyder to resign or ask her to resign. During the meeting, Lewis and Keliher confronted the rest of the board about how Snyder’s resignation occurred, claiming the board lacks transparency and calling for themselves to be put in leadership roles because of a lack of trust in other board members. Discussion became so heated, several residents in attendance recorded it and posted it live on Face-

book. “I was absolutely appalled to not be involved in that discussion,� Lewis said, describing feeling “furious� that a decision was made without her voice. “The superintendent made her own decision,� Volk said. “The superintendent did not make her own decision,� Lewis responded. “She made her own decision,� Volk said. “That’s not what you told me when I talked to you on the phone on the 13th,� Lewis said. Volk reiterated that Snyder made her own decision. “My trust level here is really very poor, and pretty much destroyed,� Lewis said. “The integrity that we have talked about is pretty much gone.� Lewis said the board has created transparency issues themselves and the board needs to rebuild trust. “I cannot tell you how appalling it is to not have been included in this when

I represent a lot of citizens, too,� Lewis said. Keliher agreed, and said the board is not transparent with the public. She accused Volk, Jim Skelly, Bob Erickson and Terry Lind of sharing outside of a meeting their intentions regarding a vote regarding a proposal to hire Kate Leavell for lacrosse coach at Lakeville North High School. “I think the lack of transparency has been really bad,� Keliher said. “There’s a lot of dialogue and discussions going on. There is no way four people did not support the administration’s recommendation for a lacrosse coach without some talking behind the scenes.� Volk sharply inhaled when Keliher accused Volk of refusing to tell Leavell the reason Volk did not support her reinstatement as coach. “There was a lawsuit pending,� Volk said in a raised voice, citing concern discussion would cause further legal complications.

Skelly said the district had a letter from legal counsel stating the board did nothing wrong. In an interview, Erickson said he did not know about concerns regarding Leavell until the night of the School Board meeting when Skelly raised the issue. Erickson said his decision relating to that position came as a result of the public conversation that occurred during the meeting. Lind was not available for comment. The board later approved Leavell’s spouse as assistant lacrosse coach. Minnesota’s open meeting law generally requires governmental bodies’ discussions be public and was established to ensure the public’s right to be informed about a public board’s decisions or to detect improper influences. “It’s very concerning, the direction of this board,� Keliher said. Laura Adelmann is at laura. adelmann@ecm-inc.com.

Accusations flew among Lakeville Area School Board members during a heated exchange at the end of a long meeting Tuesday. Numerous issues never publicly discussed were raised, including claims by board members Kathy Lewis and Judy Keliher that Superintendent Lisa Snyder submitted her resignation last month after learning from Board Chair Michelle Volk that Snyder did not have support of the board to renew her contract. Volk denied accusations she forced Snyder to resign, which arose during Tuesday’s discussion of board leadership for 2017. District administration members had been dismissed by Volk before the board discussed the super-

intendent s e a rc h and board leadership positions. To n y Massaros, exe c u t ive Lisa Snyder director of administrative services, was the only staff member present during the superintendent search process discussion, and left after board members agreed to hire a search firm by Jan. 24 and before the conflicts were aired. In an email to the newspaper, Snyder reiterated previous comments that she chose to resign as superintendent. “I am looking forward to a new challenge and opportunity,� she said. “At this point in my career, there are a number of opportunities available to me that will allow me to utilize my experiences, passion and talents to positively contribute to the profession that I love: education.� The board evaluated Snyder’s performance

Roadways current focus of ADA upgrade plans by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A quarter century after the Americans with Disabilities Act was passed, complying with the 1990 federal law remains a work in progress for Burnsville and other local governments. Burnsville is updating its plan for making roadway crossings and sidewalks accessible to people with mobility and other impairments. The update revisits a 2013 “transition� plan for meeting the latest ADA standards. Other plans developed in 2013 address the rest

of the city’s facilities: the Ames Center, Birnamwood Golf Course, the Ice Center, city parks, City Hall and the Police Department (which will get ADA upgrades during renovations that begin this spring), the GARAGE and the Ames Center parking ramp. The plans list hundreds of tasks and retrofits, most of which have been done alongside other planned upgrades, said Steve Albrecht, Burnsville’s public works director and ADA coordinator. Roadways are getting renewed attention now, and not just in Burnsville,

Albrecht said. That’s because federal authorities have made clear that federal contributions to future road projects will require updated ADA plans, he said. Also, standards for ADA-compliant curb cuts and sidewalk ramps have changed several times in the last decade, he said. And roadway features exposed to the elements are prone to deterioration, requiring frequent monitoring. The city held a public meeting Nov. 30 on its roadway transition plan. It was lightly attended, Albrecht said, though the

Minnesota Paralyzed Veterans of America has given input. “It’s an important thing,� Albrecht said. “In Burnsville, at least, we’re seeing bigger segments of our population use transit. And our sidewalks are being used more. Our trails systems are being used more. So it’s important that we keep those accessible.� Burnsville has “hundreds and hundreds� of pedestrian ramps, Albrecht said. “At many of our intersections, there’s four of them.� A color-coded map of Burnsville’s pedestrian

ramps shows most colored green (in good condition) or yellow (functional, but awaiting upgrades when associated road or sidewalk projects are done). A handful colored red must be fixed soon, Albrecht said. “Trip hazards tend to pop up when things are outside in the environment,� he said. “Sidewalks and things degrade. A sidewalk that may have been OK one year isn’t OK the next year.� Overall, “From a pedestrian facility standpoint, I think we’re in pretty good shape.� ADA standards have

been strengthened in recent years, Albrecht said. Standards for sidewalk segments leading to pedestrian ramps are more prescriptive, and use of stoplights with audio for the visually impaired has been expanded, he said. Information on Burnsville’s ADA compliance and transition plans is on the city website at www. burnsville.org/ADA. John Gessner can be reached at (952) 846-2031 or email john.gessner@ecm-inc.com.

School taxes to fall in District 191 next year by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Next year’s school property tax levy will fall by 2.4 percent in District 191, thanks largely to refinancing of existing debt, according to the district. The Burnsville-EaganSavage School Board approved the 2017 levy Dec.

15. The levy, totaling $38 million, will help fund operations in the 2017-18 school year. Property taxes total about a fifth of the district’s current general fund revenue of $121.8 million. School taxes on a $200,000 home in Burnsville will fall next year from $1,016 to $985, the

district estimates. School taxes on a $350,000 Burnsville home are projected to fall from $1,864 to $1,802. School taxes on a $2 million commercial-industrial property in Burnsville are projected to fall from $12,147 to $11,712. School taxes on a $750,000 apartment property are project-

ed to fall from $4,603 to $4,422. Most of the levy’s decline is in the $9.1 million general debt service fund, which is dropping by $1.3 million, or 12.2 percent. Bond refinancing the district has done in the last year and a half to take advantage of lower interest rates “is the main reason

why we see the 2.4 percent reduction in the total levy,� said Lisa Rider, director of business services. The refinancing is “definitely helping the taxpayers of our district,� Board Chair Dan Luth said. The $26 million general fund levy is rising by $555,000, or 2.2 percent. The local tax contribu-

tion to school funding is highly regulated by state formulas, Rider said. No one spoke at the board’s annual tax hearing. John Gessner can be reached at (952) 846-2031 or email john.gessner@ecm-inc.com.

McDonald’s toy, supply drive was successful Area McDonald’s restaurants were filled with holiday cheer this year. Several schools, businesses in residents made a toy and supply drive for Ronald McDonald House Charities special. It was the largest it’s been in the five years since McDonald’s locations in Eagan and Rosemount have been holding the drive. “We do fundraisers throughout the year, but this one is particular rewarding because we get to see the community bring in the gifts and interact with the schools,� said Kay Butler, owner of 10 area McDonald’s restaurants.

“(On Monday) we delivered a 12-foot trailer full of toys. We were so happy. The people (at the Ronald McDonald House) were very appreciative.� Area McDonald’s locations collected items to run the Ronald McDonald House and Ronald McDonald Family Rooms in the Twin Cities area including soap, cleaning supplies, paper plates and really anything that is needed to run charities. They also collected gifts like puzzles and coloring books for children who are either in the hospital or have a family member in the hospital.

“We were blessed by our customers and our employees and several schools in the district that help us with the drive for toys and household goods,� Butler said. “This is the time of year they look to supply the houses with the laundry and toilet paper and that kind of things. And they make sure the kids have something they can open on Christmas day. The parents don’t, obviously, always have the opportunity to shop.� Many students local elementary schools like Thomas Lake, Woodland, Deerwood and Parkview

elementary schools went them to school to fill up “It was a special effort,� shopping with their fami- the trailers. Butler said. lies, purchased the goods They also received help -AndyR ogers and the gifts, and brought from area businesses.

Opinion Fake news is a cancer for society by Keith Anderson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Tabloid journalism has been around for decades. The man who sneezed so hard it blew his wife’s hair off her head, NASA capturing photos of ghosts in space, the dolphin that grew human arms, the shocking photos of Abraham Lincoln not being a vampire slayer, as Hollywood might have you believe, but that “he” was in fact a she — all over-the-top fake. But for that readership demographic it’s all accepted with full acknowledgement that it’s just mindless entertainment, not news. Nobody really believes it. Not so with the fake content of social media and the many websites that have popped up to trick, deceive and flat out change people’s opinions on issues. This became omnipresent during the 2016 presidential election. According to a New York Times story published Nov. 8, 2016, numerous fake accounts that were attributed to notable politicians were circulating bogus information in the days leading up to the election. There was this fake message attributed to former N.Y. City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani: “We cannot let Blacks and Hispanics alone decide this election for Hillary! Everyone deserves a say. All others, head to the polls NOW!” Another site with irresistible headlines indicated President Obama and Hillary Clinton were promising amnesty to undocumented immigrants who voted for the Democratic ticket. Also not true. Yet, in 2016, this fabricated content is getting traction, and perhaps more concerning is that there is an entire generation of users who have grown up getting their “news” from social media feeds that neither claim nor deliver on the notion that what is appearing on these sites is accurate, objective or even remotely true. The intent is clicks, which drives revenue. Some describe social media as a land mine. I would say it’s more like a landfill. You can find some good stuff out there, but it’s mixed in with a lot of stinking, rotting waste that left unmonitored can infiltrate the environment and create a serious cancer threat. There’s no question fake news influenced some people during this past election. And in fact, it’s probably influencing them on a daily basis if they are relying on social media and bogus websites as their sources of information. Those who have been involved with ethical journalism have known just how difficult it is to bring accurate and trust-

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Keith Anderson

worthy news to readers every day, largely because it is labor intensive. It takes effort. That’s not always easy. A few weeks ago Pulitzer Prize winning reporter Chris Ison spoke to a room of ECM journalists about his efforts as an investigative journalist. He talked about digging through dumpsters to find documents. He and a colleague tracked key figures for days to gain further leads. He pored over hundreds of pages of government documents and talked with dozens of sources to help develop stories. It took weeks and weeks of effort, but it was money well spent because in one of those stories, it was being done to educate the public about sloppy arson investigations. On a more local level, it’s impossible to tell the story of a city’s plan to create a new tax district without talking to the people involved, examining where it has been tried before, and asking questions of business leaders who may be affected by it. But in order to tell that story so readers have accurate information, an investment of time and energy must be made by the reporter. That means interviews, fact checking, citing reputable sources, and presenting it all objectively. There is an expense to that, something that many of us have been willing to ignore because so much of what we read comes from somebody else who shared it through a post, connected to a link, taken from a screenshot or pasted as a PDF. As readers we’ve had little reason to think about how much a newspaper spent in time and talent to bring that story to bear because the internet has fed our appetite and allowed us to devour it all quite anonymously, and in most cases at no charge. And that is odd. Newspapers have real costs to bring readers the news. As consumers when we visit a restaurant, we not only pay for our food, we tip our waiter or waitress for exceptional service. In fact, many folks tip regardless of the level of service. Even taxpayer-funded projects, led by city and county officials, end up charging us a fee for their use including our neighborhood community centers, city swimming pools, public school extracurricular activities, community theaters,

taxpayer-supported professional stadiums, community education programs and so much more. If there is value to it, there is usually a fee attached. That’s because it takes the investment of time and energy to create a product the public needs. Of course it’s much easier to create bogus news that does not require fact checking, does not require accuracy, does not develop the basis of the story with any ethical standards and has no goal of objectivity. Usually, its No. 1 goal is to deceive, persuade and generate clicks, which in turn results in revenue. Fake news promoters do not care what the impact might be to the individual, a community or a nation. Their agenda is usually singular and for the rest of society the results are cancerous. Our society has become more polarized in the last 10 years than most of us have ever experienced. That tunneled perspective simply feeds into the fake news formula, which is insistent on appealing to the people who are eager to agree with whatever is being fabricated or stretched. That helps spread the bogus story to others and pretty soon fake becomes blurred with real and many who read only headlines are influenced. That should scare every citizen in a democratic society. How can any of us make informed decisions if we are not getting our news from objective sources? It’s also perpetuated by the algorithms on social media sites that are designed to feed us even more stories that conform to the beliefs we have amassed by our previous clicks. In other words, our newsfeeds continue to provide us with views and stories that narrow our scope of our nation, state and community. That means there is a lot of reputable news that won’t even make it to your newsfeed because it doesn’t fit the algorithm for your site. This decay from within is also possible because people by nature are trusting. Those with a stilted agenda are preying on that trust. They depend on it to spread their deception. Since few readers have the time to fact check and verify everything being read, it’s easy for those with a motive to exploit fears and invade that trust. But when people start making life decisions based on newsfeeds that are littered with deceptive news, as a society we must examine the ramifications. In a free and democratic society there is a responsibility for each of us to be informed of the events and news that occur in our communities. In turn, we use that information to make intelligent decisions, take action with grassroots initiatives, support elected officials who will help improve our communities, and actively

engage fellow citizens on issues that affect us all, including education, racial equality, public safety and health, transportation and human rights. That is our mission as community newspapers. We strive to bring you news and information that is relevant to your lives, but also helps you stay abreast of the critical policy decisions that are being made every day by city councils, school boards, state legislators, county boards, chambers and more. Will we make mistakes? Absolutely. But they won’t be deliberate and we will also acknowledge and correct them in our effort to make sure readers are getting accurate, pertinent information. And you should let us know when we are not living up to the standards of reporting that you deserve. We may not always succeed, but it won’t be for lack of effort. But to do that there is a price. This is a fact. The trash that continues to get generated by the fakers and the deceivers will certainly multiply over the next few years, but even if you don’t want to support this newspaper, you should take steps to ensure the news you receive is not fabricated. First, don’t pass along content that seems unbelievable. It probably is. Certainly don’t do it deliberately. Every time you share questionable content with friends and others you perpetuate the problem. Check the sources. Verify that what’s being reported is in fact attributed to a reputable source. Avoid the influence of headlines that scream to your fears. And make sure you are getting more than one side to a story, even if it makes you feel uncomfortable. If your current news sources seem only to reinforce everything you already believe, you may want to see how much objectivity is really being reported. Our society cannot successfully function with a populace that is receiving biased news and deceptive information. That’s why getting news from credible sources is so vitally important. But don’t expect somebody else to solve this problem. The fake stream only loses its value if people aren’t reading and sharing it anymore. We hope you will help support our newspapers and the countless other media outlets that work every day to bring you information and stories that are relevant and factual. Truth in reporting may not always be pretty, but a nation, state or community propped up by lies cannot survive.

A gift for you and a great teacher by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Today we’ll talk about giving you, the reader, two gifts. Here are two ways to do this. First, please remember a favorite teacher. Write her or him a thank you note and send it. I’ll never forget my middle school music teacher, Jim Hardy. He was as kind and gracious in responding to my note as he was 40 years earlier when my voice was changing and my singing was awful. The same was true for Richard Crouter, a college religion professor who helped me (and many others) through the trauma of the 1960s. The second gift is to buy a copy of “Thank You, Teacher,” edited by Holly and Bruce Holbert. Holly initiated this book, which has brief letters from more than 80 famous people thanking their favorite teachers. The book began when Holly decided to honor her husband’s more than 30 years as an English and social studies teacher. Published by New World Library this year, it’s one of the most moving, uplifting books I’ve read in many years. You can comment about a teacher on their Facebook page, “Thank you, teacher.” Holly wrote in the introduction,

usually comes from the individual. I also believe that the Earth is getting warmer. This view is held by 87 percent of the nation’s scientists. However, only about one half of the general public agrees. The individual must solve this problem. In any event we certain-

Talking about mental illness in Dakota County Public Health effort aims to get people help, reduce suicide rate by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Dakota County Public Health is making a concerted effort to remove the stigma that surrounds talking about mental illness and suicide. In the past few months, the agency with longtime adolescent health coordinator Shannon Bailey leading the effort to get conversations started about mental illness and suicide has conducted “Make It OK� training throughout Dakota County. Facilitators have spoken to groups like Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District social workers, school nurses, South St. Paul-MendotaHeights-Eagan school officials and Lakeville South staff members. “My goal from a public health perspective is to inform key community leaders on the mental health evidence-based best practices so their agencies can incorporate strategies into their policies and practices,� Bailey said. “Educating people on the signs and symptoms of mental illnesses is important but we can’t stop there.� Last Thursday, Bailey spoke with the One Rosemount leaders group

that includes representatives from local schools, churches and civic groups. “I would like to continue the conversation on how to promote mental health and suicide prevention with each leader and their agencies,� Bailey said after the meeting. Mental illness has been identified by Dakota County Public Health and every other public agency in the metro area as the No. 1 priority in their most recent five-year assessments of the top issues to address. It ranked right next to chronic disease and obesity, according to Bailey. She said one in five people live with a mental illness, and it’s most important to get people help in addressing their needs before a tragedy like suicide occurs. Bailey said it is impossible to prove that Dakota County’s focus on Make It OK training and other public communication efforts with regard to mental illness and suicide are responsible for a drop in suicides this year, but she knows the more people talk about their thoughts and feelings, the better the outcomes. “All of our work in the community has contributed to this (decline),� Bailey said referring to the culture in schools, churches and businesses that getting help for mental illness is accepted and encouraged. She said Dakota County is on pace to have a re-

duction in the number of suicides by about 15 to 25. As of the Dec. 15 presentation, there were 30 suicides reported in Dakota County in 2016. Nearly half of the suicides this year were among those 50 and older, while men ages 18-24 accounted for 15 and those under 18 accounted for five. Bailey said those numbers illustrate that suicide is not confined to adolescents and the community needs to find better support mechanisms for older adults and young adult males. “As leaders you all have an important role from this day forward,� Bailey told the group. “Don’t talk quietly about mental illness. Our challenge is to make it OK to talk about mental illness.� Bailey related several stories about people who have lived with mental illness for up to 60 years who have revealed their struggles for the first time during some of her presentations. Those stories of people known very well by those in these presentation groups illustrate how pervasive mental illness is, how hidden it can be and the humanity of it. Bailey said medical research has shown there is a biological reason for mental illness as those who have these illnesses inherited them through their DNA. It’s not anyone’s fault they have a mental illness,

and it should be treated as such, according to Bailey. For the same biological reasons, more boys and young men die from suicide as their brains don’t allow them to talk about their problems or crisis moments. Bailey said 90 percent of Dakota County suicides are by boys and men. She offered advice in engaging with boys and young men (or anyone) who have become withdrawn or had a sudden change in behavior. She said the best way to approach a person who may be in a crisis is to first tell them that they are loved and supported. After telling the person that one is concerned about changes in their behavior, directly ask them if they have been having thoughts of killing themselves. Bailey said the conversations will take two different paths at this point. If the person says no, relief comes to the conversation. If the person says yes, Bailey said that person needs to know what they have shared took courage and that “I will walk alongside you to get help.� Participants in the Dec. 15 session said they appreciated both the information that put mental illness into perspective and practical tools people can use in addressing mental illness on a personal level. “The most important element for me was

how to communicate or talk about suicide at city (community) level,� said Rosemount Mayor Bill Droste. “Suicide is a public health problem and learning about the issue was tremendously valuable. Having ministers and principals at the meeting helped me understand the responsibilities leaders have helping survivors of suicide loss deal with grief and loss.� Bailey offered much advice to the leaders in how to handle communication after a suicide has taken place. Rosemount High School Principal John Wollersheim said he’s gone through the training before, but added that: “I think there is real power in our leaders hearing this message together. Awareness citywide is a great step in the right direction.� He said the meeting offered him a chance to update his contact list with area clergy leaders. “I thought the presentation was great,� said Rosemount Family Resource Center Coordinator Natalie Schmidgall. “I know that working in a resource center most of the families we work with are in crisis and often times we come across families who live with mental illness.� She said she is going to educate volunteers and coworkers about the importance of breaking down the stigma of mental illness and suicide. “I think that the more

we can educate and discuss these the topics the more we can take a holistic approach when working with our families and create a positive environment that everyone feels comfortable to be their self,� she said. “When someone can truly connect it provides an opportunity to pick up on things. At the resource center we have been able to provide resources during these moments because of our connections we have with our families and the approach we take. I hope we can continue to break down the stigma, educate and continue to support and make proper referrals so that we can support those who live with mental illness each and every day and ultimately help save lives.� Bailey said she and others trained in offering the “Make It OK� session are available to meet with local groups. To find out more, contact Dakota County Public Health at public.health@co.dakota. mn.us or 651-554-6100. St. Paul-based National Alliance on Mental Illness also holds several support group and training events in Dakota County. More information is at namihelps.org or 651-645-2948.

Resolve to start the New Year without an eye injury For most people, ringing in the New Year means celebrating with friends and family, champagne toasts and cheer, but if you get hit in the eye with a champagne cork, it may mean a trip to the emergency room. Every year, improper cork-removal techniques cause serious, potentially blinding eye damage. A

champagne cork can fly up to 50 miles per hour as it leaves the bottle – fast enough to shatter glass. At such high speeds, there is no time to react and guard against eye injury. The Minnesota Academy of Ophthalmology offers some tips on opening a bottle of bubbly correctly to avoid flying corks in the first

place: – Make sure sparkling wine is chilled to at least 45 degrees Fahrenheit before opening. The cork of a warm bottle is more likely to pop unexpectedly. – Don’t shake the bottle. Shaking increases your chances of eye injury. – To open the bottle safely, hold down the cork

with the palm of your hand while removing the wire hood. Point the bottle at a 45-degree angle away from yourself and from any bystanders. – Place a towel over the entire top of the bottle and grasp the cork. – Keep the bottle at a 45-degree angle as you slowly and firmly twist the bottle

while holding the cork to break the seal. Continue to hold the cork while twisting the bottle. Continue until the cork is almost out of the neck. Counter the force of the cork using slight downward pressure just as the cork breaks free from the bottle. – Never use a corkscrew to open a bottle of cham-

pagne or sparkling wine. In the event that an eye injury does occur, seek medical help from an ophthalmologist – an eye medical doctor – immediately. To learn more about champagne cork safety and eye injuries, visit geteyesmart. org.

Final Exit loses Court of Appeals decision Group says it will petition to have case heard by state Supreme Court by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The Minnesota Court of Appeals upheld on Monday a Dakota County court ruling that a national right-to-die group was guilty of two charges connected to the May 2007 suicide of an Apple Valley woman. In issuing its ruling the court rejected Final Exit Network’s claims that the charges were unconstitutional under the First Amendment when the group’s members “assisted� in 57-year-old Doreen Dunn’s death. Final Exit was found guilty of felony assisting another to commit suicide and gross-misdemeanor interference with a dead body or death scene in May 2015. The indictment against Tallahassee, Florida-based Final Exit was issued by a grand jury in May 2012.

The appeals court said Final Exit’s information on its website and other communications with regard to the right-to-die or emotional support are not prohibited since it is not directed to a specific individual, but the group’s members violated Minnesota law with regard to the preservation of human life when it assisted in Dunn’s suicide. Final Exit members provided information directly to Dunn. They came to her house and explained to her procedures that led to her death. A Final Exit medical examiner checked Dunn’s pulse afterward to determine she had died. Members also removed equipment that led to the death and disposed of it in a dumpster to create the appearance of a natural death, the court said. “We are pleased with the decision of the court of appeals to uphold the conviction of this corporation whose members directly enabled Doreen Dunn to take her own life in violation of our laws,� Dakota County Attorney James Backstrom said on

Tuesday. He said what Final Exit members did is not OK and it will never be. “What Final Exit Network does in aiding individuals suffering from serious medical conditions who, like Doreen Dunn, are not terminally ill but are extremely vulnerable or depressed, in taking their own lives and then covering up the truth about what occurred ‌ is not only legally wrong, it is morally reprehensible,â€? Dakota County Attorney James Backstrom said about the guilty verdict in May 2015. Dunn reportedly suffered pain for 10 years following a 1996 medical procedure when she joined Final Exit. Minnesota Citizens Concerned for Life said in a press release that the ruling sends a very clear message that assisting suicide in Minnesota is illegal. MCCL referred to Final Exit Network as an assisted suicide advocacy group that purposely came into the state, broke the law and assisted in a suicide of a vulnerable person who needed care,

not suicide. MCCL said the “law protecting Minnesotans from suicide predators like Final Exit Network and other assisted suicide advocates has been in place since 1992 and has served all of us well.� “This court was just one step on the appellate ladder,� Final Exit president Janis Landis said on its website after Monday’s ruling. “Whether we won or lost in this court, we always knew the case would have to go to the Supreme Court of Minnesota, and maybe beyond. So now we’ll step up to the next court. We’re in this to stay until we obtain justice.� Backstrom said he is confident the conviction will continue to be upheld in the Minnesota Supreme Court since the appeals decision was based on the interpretation of the law in the Supreme Court’s review of the State vs. William Melchert-Dinkel. “The Minnesota Supreme Court clearly indicated that words in a direct manner that instruct people how to take their own life is not protected under the First Amend-

ment,� Backstrom said. Backstrom said the Minnesota Legislature has set forth how end-oflife issues are addressed under the care of a physician communicating full knowledge of the situation to the patient and the family. He said the protections need to be in place so there aren’t any abuses that occur. The appeals court based its ruling largely on the precedent set in Melchert-Dinkel. In the case, MelchertDinkel, a Faribault resident posing as a female nurse, contacted two different people through the Internet and started conversations with them in which he was found to have “assisted� one person in a death by suicide. After an appeal of his conviction to the Minnesota Supreme Court, the court determined that “assists� means “proscrib(ing) speech or conduct that provides another person with what is needed for the person to commit suicide� or “enabl(ing) the person to commit suicide.�

The case also further found that the speech must be directed to a specific individual and not merely expressing a moral viewpoint or providing general comfort or support. Melchert-Dinkel served nearly six months in jail after his 2014 conviction and remains on 10 years of probation, according to the Faribault Daily News report of March 2016. Final Exit was ordered on Aug. 24, 2015, to pay a $30,000 fine and approximately $3,000 in restitution in connection to the Dunn case. The sentence included a stay of execution of 21 months in prison and 15 years of probation. While a corporate entity cannot be sent to prison, under Minnesota law the prison term establishes that the offense is a felony. Final Exit was on probation until the fine and restitution was paid, which the group said on its website it would pay immediately. Email Tad Johnson at tad.johnson@ecm-inc.com.

Spreading holiday cheer at Apple Valley Villa by Andrew Miller SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Residents at Apple Valley Villa are embracing the spirit of giving this holiday season with their gift program for retired military veterans. Earlier this month, about 20 residents at the senior-living apartments on the Augustana Care campus, 14650 Garrett Ave., gathered to assemble “Christmas Cheer� gift boxes for the Veterans Home in Minneapolis. “I love to see all of the participation,� said Judy Offenbacher, an Apple Valley Villa resident who founded the program three years ago. “Everybody comes together and works hard at wrapping. I love to see the appreciation from all of the staff and veter-

ans on Christmas.� Offenbacher said she started the program to honor her father, a World War II veteran. She was assisted in organizing the program this year by Dick Vatne, an Apple Valley Villa resident who served in the U.S. Navy during World War II. Within the last three years, Apple Valley Villa has delivered over 200 wrapped boxes to the Veterans Home. The Veterans Home provided Offenbacher with a list of gift items veterans could use such as socks, shampoo, toothbrushes, note pads and puzzle books. Each year, those items are purchased by Apple Valley Villa residents. The day after this year’s wrapping party, Offen-

Church provides a safe haven in subzero cold Grace Lutheran hosts temporary homeless shelter by Andrew Miller SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

As temperatures dropped to dangerous, subzero levels last weekend, those in need of a place to stay could find warm refuge at Grace Lutheran Church in Apple Valley. The church played host Dec. 15-18 to the Dakota Adult Shelter Project’s crisis shelter, which offered basic services — including food and a place to sleep — on Grace Lutheran’s second floor. The temporary homeless shelter served about 25 guests each night, said Monica Nilsson, a homelessness advocate who was coordinating efforts for the Dakota Adult Shelter Project the night of Dec. 18. “About 40 percent of our guests were sleeping in their cars� prior to the shelter’s opening at Grace, Nilsson said. “There’s been volunteers coming around bringing food, the Apple Valley Police Department

A community room on the second floor of Grace Lutheran Church was filled with beds and personal belongings as the church hosted a temporary homeless shelter last weekend. (Photo by Andrew Miller) has been donating one officer outside to provide a police presence, and the shelter guests feel cared for. You can’t feel cared for if you’re sleeping in your car.� Though there are homeless shelters in Eagan and Hastings, those shelters are at capacity, and Dakota County has dozens of people each night with nowhere to sleep, Nilsson added.

“Clearly, in four days we’re seeing the need for this,� she said. The temporary shelter at Grace Lutheran came together after Dakota County put out an appeal last week for a site, anticipating the dangerously frigid weather. Grace Lutheran, part of a multichurch coalition working with the Dakota Adult Shelter Project, offered to serve as host site.

“Grace has been part of a multiple-congregation task force working on a more permanent solution to homelessness in Dakota County,� said Rev. John Matthews, lead pastor at Grace Lutheran. “Approximately 25 Grace members have been physically involved (at the shelter), with many more giving money and items of food and clothing. Our goal, using social media,

has been to involve the broader community.� The Dakota Adult Shelter Project, which also consists of homelessness advocates and Dakota County Social Services workers, is seeking a long-term site to shelter the county’s homeless. The group is looking at churches and other buildings in northern Dakota County. Meanwhile, additional churches have stepped forward to host a temporary shelter until the end of the year. The Dakota Adult Shelter Project moved out of Grace Lutheran on Dec. 19 and headed to Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Burnsville for a four-day occupancy. Spirit of Life Presbyterian Church in Apple Valley agreed to host the temporary shelter Dec. 23-26, and Dakota Adult Shelter Project was in talks with an Eagan church interested in serving as host site Dec. 27-Jan. 1. Guests at the temporary shelter at Grace Lutheran ranged in age from infants to senior citizens. Richard, an adult guest at Grace Lutheran last weekend, said he and a friend had been sleeping

in his car in Eagan, and the cold weather combined with his car’s broken heater had made their situation desperate. On the waiting list at the men’s homeless shelter in Hastings, Richard said he learned about the temporary site at Grace Lutheran through an Eagan police officer. “This really saved us,� he said. “It has been phenomenal. The food — I’ve eaten more in three days than I have in three weeks. All the volunteers have been so caring.� The Dakota Adult Shelter Project is seeking donations for its emergency and long-term services. Those wishing to donate can go to www.gofundme. com/dakcountyshelter. Those in need of temporary shelter, or interested in volunteering at a shelter site, can contact Monica Nilsson at 612405-5156 or monicanilsson@gmail.com. Temporary shelter can also be sought through Dakota County Crisis Response at 952-891-7171. Email Andrew Miller at andrew.miller@ecm-inc.com.

Burnsville High School nurse receives statewide recognition Pam Walcher was always drawn to the nursing profession, but it’s when she became a school nurse that she found her true calling. “I love other fields of nursing but with school nursing, I’m able to make a positive impact on our youth to support their learning and move them forward to healthier lifestyles,� she said. “That gives me an incredible sense of satisfaction, and it’s what keeps me going.� Walcher was recently named as a “Nurse of the Year� in the Community Health Nursing category by the Minnesota March of Dimes, which recognizes nurses throughout the state in 16 different categories.

“The remarkable efforts of these individuals often go unsung, and the March of Dimes is proud to celebrate nursing excellence,� said a spokesperson. More than 600 nurses were nominated for the awards. Walcher is the school nurse at Burnsville High School, which serves 2,700 students in grades nine to 12. She sees her role as being an advocate for students and she effectively bridges the link between their educational and medical needs. “Pam’s nursing knowledge and communication and listening skills create a calm and caring environment for students and families at Burnsville High School,� wrote nominator Bernie Bein, another

school nurse in District 191. “Learning is an important activity in a school and the health office is an extension to the learning environment. Pam is an expert health educator who sees every interaction with students as an opportunity for learning and health promotion.� “The health office connects with all the other departments at Burnsville High School,� said Walcher. “We all work together to make sure students have what they need to succeed and reach their goals� To students, she says: “We care about you and we want you here at BHS so you can graduate, which sets you up for a successful future.� She also supports

families who are facing issues. There are serious and tough situations, but there are also joy and accomplishments. “I really like working with high school kids,� said Walcher. “Their sense of humor and insights make me smile and help me grow.� Among the District 191 school nurses, Walcher has a leadership role

in developing procedures and policies such as nutritious snacks in the school, extended field trips and emergency preparedness. She has also mentored nursing students. Walcher is an active member in the School Nurse Organization of Minnesota (SNOM) and is currently treasurer and co-chair on the awards committee.

“Pam’s dedication and passion to the profession of school nursing is demonstrated every day through the interactions and the nursing care and support she provides to students, families and staff members,� said Bein. “She is very deserving of this honor.�

As if on cue, Belanger Braid received a call from The City of Lakes Waldorf School in Minneapolis with a donation of violins, violas and cellos. The donations followed the donation of $35,000 worth of new band instruments to Nicollet Middle School in partnership with Yamaha.

Sports Cougars’ victory gives them breathing room South beats Eagan 4-3 in duel for SSC girls hockey lead by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Lakeville South has faith in its depth. If the Cougars can send three productive lines over the boards, coach Mark Johnson said, good results will follow eventually. That’s what happened Saturday night when the Cougars played Eagan for first place in South Suburban Conference girls hockey. South overcame a sluggish first period and rallied to beat the Wildcats 4-3 at Hasse Arena. Lakeville South is 9-0 in the conference (10-3 overall) and has a four-point lead over Eagan (6-1-2, 6-3-2). Four different players scored for the Cougars, with junior forward Allison McKinney getting the winner 2 minutes, 42 seconds into the third period. The game matched what are probably the South Suburban’s two deepest teams. Emily Fischer and Halle Gill are South’s top two scorers but it was McKinney, who hadn’t scored in the Cougars’ first 11 games, who got the game-winner. Eagan junior forward Taylor Anderson, a MinnesotaDuluth commit, attracts a lot of attention, but the Wildcats have 13 players with at least one goal. “We were a little flat the first period,” Johnson said after Saturday’s game. “We didn’t quite have what we usually play with. Once our three lines got rolling over the boards, they went really hard. When we roll three lines, we can really step up our game.”

(Photo by Jim Lindquist/sidekick.smugmug.com) Anderson, who had a goal and assist against Lakeville South, has 10 goals and 16 points in Eagan’s first 10 games. “Taylor is having a great season, but I’m also pleased that when you look at our stats, you see we have a lot of players contributing,” Eagan head coach Dan Wilson said. “We think we can compete with any team in the state and one of the reasons is our depth.” Gill scored at 2:07 of the first period against Eagan before the Wild-

cats took the lead on goals by Anderson and Megan Plaschko. South regained the lead in the second period on goals by Maddy Fox and Fischler, but a powerplay goal by Plaschko with 1:28 left in the second tied the game again. Plaschko did not have a goal this season before getting two (along with one assist) against South. On Friday, Eagan planned to have Plaschko work with the top power-play unit, but practice was canceled because of a snowstorm. The Eagan coaches

Notebook: EV’s Luke Doolittle takes first in opening Alpine race by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Lakeville teams dominated at the first South Suburban Conference Alpine skiing meet of the season Monday at Buck Hill. Lakeville South’s boys won by 101 points over second-place Prior Lake. Lakeville North won the girls meet, finishing almost 60 points ahead of Prior Lake. Eastview senior Luke Doolittle, who finished third at the 2016 state meet, was boys medalist with a two-run time of 45.27 seconds, Lakeville South senior Jake Abbott was second in 46.72, leading five Cougars skiers that placed in the top nine. Completing the top nine were Izak Hofstad of Eagan, Joshua Doolittle of Eastview, Camden Palmquist of Eagan, and Kyle Wentworth, Brandon Wentworth, John Olson and Oliver Grasdal, all of Lakeville South. Jonathan Erickson of Apple Valley/Rosemount was 11th and Jacob Allen led Burnsville/Shakopee in 15th. Lakeville North’s top skier was Benjamin Harmening, who finished 28th.

Lakeville North skiers took the top three places and four of the first five in the girls meet. Panthers senior Bailey Servais was first in 49.55, with teammate Kathryn Kossack second in 52.99. North’s Peyton Servais was third in 53.59. Isabelle Urban of Lakeville North (fifth), Tylee Schultz of Apple Valley/Rosemount (sixth), Ashlynn Baumgartner of Lakeville South (seventh), Tatum Frey of Burnsville (eighth), Fiona Chow of Burnsville (ninth) and Andrea Ray of Lakeville North (10th) also placed in the top 10. Sydne Gustafson was Eastview’s top skier in 19th place and Anna Schnuckle was 26th to lead Eagan. The next South Suburban Conference race is Jan. 12 at Buck Hill.

Boeser out of Junior Worlds University of North Dakota forward and Burnsville native Brock Boeser had what was described as minor wrist surgery last week that will keep him out of the International Ice Hockey Federation World Junior Championship that will start Monday in Montre-

decided to go with the new group anyway and it paid dividends immediately; Plaschko had a goal and assist on the power play. The stat sheet showed Eagan with a 16-4 advantage in shots on goal in the third period (and 34-18 for the game), but South’s Gill said the Cougars played the third period exactly the way they needed. “We were conditioned in the third period. We had it in their zone the whole time. They couldn’t get it out,” Gill said. “I think we’re very well trained.”

As for the goaltending, South junior Lexi Baker made 31 saves and came into this week with a 2.37 goals-against average and .908 save percentage. After backing up Chloe Crosby on South’s state tournament team last season, Baker has made a smooth transition to the starting job. Her teammates aren’t surprised. “She’s not really a goalie where you can mess with her mind a lot,” Fischler said. “I never really have to worry about her. She’s pretty much the only one on the team you never have to worry about.” Even though Eagan lost Saturday’s game, Wilson said he thought the Wildcats would carry forth some confidence. “I thought we dominated the game at times,” he said. “It was disappointing to lose, but we now know we can play with a team of that caliber, maybe even outplay them.” Lakeville South defeated Shakopee 6-3 at home on Tuesday. The Cougars’ next game is 5 p.m. Monday, Dec. 26, against Maple Grove in the first round of the Edina holiday tournament at Braemar Arena. Maple Grove is ranked second in Class AA, with Lakeville South ninth. Eagan, ranked 13th in the state, scored three goals in the third period to tie Eastview 3-3 on Tuesday. The Wildcats retained second place in the South Suburban but fell another point behind Lakeville South. Eagan plays thirdranked Eden Prairie in the opening round of Eden Prairie’s tournament on Tuesday, Dec. 27.

Lakeville South also didn’t practice Friday, which Gill said might have affected the team’s start Saturday. “We didn’t have a terrible (first) period, but we knew what level we could get to and I think we finally reached that in the third,” she added. Johnson didn’t seem bothered by the shot total, either. “One thing I really like about watching these girls is they get stronger as the game goes on. They get the job done, and good Email Mike Shaughnessy at goaltending really helps,” mike.shaughnessy@ecminc.com. he said.

al and Toronto. Boeser played on the U.S. team that won the bronze medal in the 2016 World Juniors. He is expected to return to the North Dakota lineup sometime in January. In 2015-16 he had 27 goals and 60 points for a Fighting Hawks team that won the NCAA championship. St. Cloud State defenseman Jack Ahcan, a former Burnsville High School player, and Lakeville native Jake Oettinger, a goalie at Boston University, were training with the U.S. team this week in Buffalo, N.Y., and Oshawa, Ontario. Team USA plays Latvia in its first game at the world tourney Monday in Toronto.

SSC gym teams ranked in top 10 Lakeville North is No. 1 in the first high school Class AA gymnastics rankings released this week by the state coaches association. The Panthers are one of three South Suburban Conference teams in the top 10. Lakeville South (fifth) and Rosemount (10th) are the other SSC teams that cracked the first top 10 of the season.

overall, also has a fivegame winning streak after dropping its first two games of the season. It’s not difficult to find the reason for the turnaround. Eastview allowed 13 goals in its first two games, losses to St. Thomas Academy and HillMurray, but only five in its last five games, and just two in the last four games. Ben Beattie, a junior, has been in goal for all four of Eastview’s conference victories and has a

1.98 goals-against average and .929 save percentage. He stopped 39 shots in a 1-0 victory over Lakeville South on Dec. 15. Zach Herro, a junior, has played two games in goal, including a 3-0 victory over Hastings on Dec. 13. After falling behind Apple Valley 1-0 in Saturday’s game at Apple Valley Sports Arena, Eastview struck back with goals by Noah Lindner and Tyler Kukowski less than two minutes apart late in

the second period. In the third, Jesse Fan and Nate Bordson scored 27 seconds apart to expand Eastview’s lead. Senior forward Jake Ford had two assists and Beattie made 14 saves. Eastview and Lakeville South combined for 71 shots on goal in their Dec. 13 South Suburban Conference game, but only one found its way into the net. Junior forward Chris Fan scored the game’s only goal 2 minutes, 42 seconds into the third period, with

Jesse Fan and Zach Anderson assisting. Chris Fan, Jesse Fan and Anderson are the Lightning’s scoring leaders, each with seven points through seven games. Anderson leads the team with four goals. Ford has six points, and Lindner and Kukowski have five each. Apple Valley (3-4 overall, 1-3 South Suburban) held Eastview to 19 shots Saturday, but the Eagles saw the game get away from them in the second

and third periods. That came less than two days after they lost a two-goal lead against Farmington and fell to the Tigers 4-2. Apple Valley also lost a one-goal game against Prior Lake, which until Saturday was tied for the conference lead. Eastview will try to maintain its South Suburban lead when it plays host to Eagan at 7 p.m. Thursday at Apple Valley Sports Arena.

MAYORS, from 1A marks about the things that we need as mayors throughout the country,� she said. “But he’s also very competitive. He asked, ‘How is the current administration working on all of those things? If they’re not doing as well, we’re going to do better.’ � The mayors group, led by President Mick Cornett, mayor of Oklahoma City, focused on tax-exempt bonds, infrastructure, public safety and economic vitality, Kautz said. Cities are “the engine of the economy,� she said. “We drive it. (Trump) looked at me and said, ‘I get it; I’m there.’ � Trump strongly supported continued tax exemptions for bonds sold by local and state governments to fund infrastructure projects, according to the mayors. President Obama has proposed capping the benefit to higher-income bond investors, and some observers say House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wisconsin, hasn’t been clear about how he would treat the tax exemption for municipal bond interest in his proposed tax reforms. “This has been going on for years, and we’ve been fighting and pushing back,� Kautz said. Though a frequently gridlocked Congress passed a $305 billion, five-year highway bill last year, Kautz said it doesn’t cover the nation’s needs. She awaits details on Trump’s developing plans for building infrastructure through publicprivate partnerships, but warned against “unintended consequences�

from such arrangements. “There’s a lot of tails to that,� she said. “And then how is it going to affect taxes when they’re going to do tax reform? All of these things are very complicated.� Trump met alone with the group, without aides, Kautz said. “He has a desk, and then he has a little round table for meetings,� she said. “Around his desk there are six chairs. It’s like people come in and sit around his desk and things get done. That’s how our meeting was also — we sat around his desk.� Kautz said she has “worked very well with four presidents,� noting that as mayor, her ties to Washington, D.C., date back to the “Clinton Cops� days of her first term, when Burnsville landed grant money to hire more officers. In 2009, when she was second vice president of the U.S. Conference of Mayors and in line to lead the group, Kautz was one of the mayors chosen to address Obama at a meeting on an economic stimulus package. She said of Trump’s election: “He is our president, the people have spoken. I have worked with every president, whether they were people I voted for or didn’t vote for. And we worked well. Because at the end of the day, it’s about what’s good for Burnsville, what’s good for Minnesota and what’s good for America.� John Gessner can be reached at (952) 846-2031 or email john.gessner@ecm-inc. com.

Waking up to racial justice A coalition of south metro churches is working together to understand the history of racism in America, and work toward reconciliation and justice. The community is invited to participate by reading the book “Waking Up White, and Finding Myself in the Story of Race� by Debby Irving, and joining a study discussion group

at one of the participating churches. There is no cost to attend; books are available at local or online booksellers and area libraries. In “Waking Up White,� Irving describes her experiences of learning how she has benefited from being white. Irving details her “cringe-worthy struggle� to understand the history behind racism and racial tensions and invites readers to examine their own beliefs about race. Participants at the church book studies will have the opportunity to explore these ideas within a caring and supportive group. All are welcome. The timing of these studies is intended

ART, from 1A We could make signs, suggested a fellow member of the foundation, which raises funds for public art and amenities in Burnsville. And they have. This month the foundation began selling yard signs proclaiming “We Support Our Police and First Responders.” Proceeds from the sales will raise seed money for a larger project — a public art piece to be installed in the small courtyard between the Burnsville police station and City Hall. The goal of the piece is

to depict support for public safety responders without drawing sides, according to Delise. “What we really want to do is unite the citizens and law enforcement,” said the Apple Valley resident, president of ION Communications Inc. and a former longtime Burnsville resident. “Our officers, this is what they’re sworn to do — to protect and serve. Without law enforcement, we are not a civilization. And we need them to be civil. That’s our mission, to unite and to make a difference — bring people together to not say ‘You’re the bad guy’ or ‘You’re the bad guy,’ but to

say we need each other.” Delise said her admiration for Burnsville police grew after she emailed Chief Eric Gieseke with her frustrations and he invited her in for a meeting. “He invited me into his office and spent two hours with me telling me about their department and how they are different than many other police forces in the country,” Delise said. “Burnsville police officers must have a fouryear college degree. Not every police agency has that mandate. The Burnsville Police Department was one of the first in the nation to purchase body cams.”

Installation of the art piece will roughly coincide with major police station renovations scheduled to begin this spring and debut a year later. “They were completely unrelated, but the timing is good,” Delise said. The sale of yard signs won’t begin to cover the cost of the art piece, said Delise, who spearheaded fundraising for the $140,000 “Ascent Fountain,” a bronze sculpture with a smaller companion piece honoring the late Ken Slipka, a former foundation president. It was unveiled in June at Nicollet Commons Park. Fundraising for the

public safety piece will begin in the first quarter of 2017, Delise said. “We have not selected the artist,” she said. “We have not selected or agreed upon the amount that we’re going to spend on this art piece.” Under the auspices of the foundation, launched in 1998, bronze sculptures in Burnsville have included the Ames Sculpture (2001), “Centrifuge” in Nicollet Commons Park (2004), a sculpture of a young ballplayer at VanderLaan Field in Alimagnet Park (2014) and “Ascent Fountain” (2016). The foundation also places benches and trash

receptacles, sells pavers in Nicollet Commons and is responsible for the winter lighting and illuminated snowflake programs in the Heart of the City. Delise said yard signs are available at City Hall, 100 Civic Center Parkway, and at the Burnsville Chamber of Commerce office, 350 W. Burnsville Parkway, Suite 425. Information on the foundation is at www. burnsvillefoundation.org.
