Farmington School Board chair Bob Heman resigns by Kara Hildreth THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

The Farmington School Board accepted the resignation of its chair Bob Heman at the Monday, Aug. 23, school b o a r d meeting. Bob Heman Heman resigned from the school board effective Thursday, Aug. 19. He also withdrew his candidacy to run for re-election after filing last week. Asked why he resigned, Heman said he was devot-

FARMINGTON ing too much time to serving on the board and the workload became more than a part-time job. Working to maintain a balance between work and family, Heman said all his time off was devoted to the school board. “My time was very rewarding, and I got to see a lot of changes throughout the district,� he said. “I have seen tremendous gains everywhere in the district.� Heman served from 1994 to 2001, and returned in 2006 to run for school board when there

was a lack of interest and an uncontested election. “It is time to step aside and let someone else do the job,� said Heman. Heman’s colleagues on the board thanked Heman for his years of service. “I was disheartened when I heard he had resigned because we are losing a very effective board member – one who cared deeply about this district and the students in the district,� said John Kampf, school board member. Kampf served for many years and many board terms alongside Heman. Kampf thanked Heman See Heman, 6A

Lakeville man charged for alleged role in Ponzi scheme Authorities say man bilked banks out of $80 million by Derrick Williams THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

A Lakeville man federal prosecutors say is behind an $80 million Ponzi scheme has been charged with fraud and filing a false income tax return. Corey Noel Johnston, 40, is accused of running the same kind of financial fraud that sent Minnesota businessman Tom Petters and national businessman Bernie Madoff to jail. According to a report in the Star Tribune, federal prosecutors in Minneapolis allege Johnston arranged the fraud from 2005 to March 2009.

LAKEVILLE The report said federal and state court records show Johnston, through his business services company First United Funding LLC, arranged multimilliondollar commercial and personal loans and then sold the loans back to banks to receive repayment directly. However, Johnston oversold them, resulting in a loss of $79.5 million for 17 different lenders. A phone message left to a number listed for First United Funding wasn’t immediately returned. According to the report,

the lawsuit alleged Johnston used the money on personal expenses including payments for corporate jets and vacations. The report says federal prosecutors believe Johnston falsely reported a 2005 taxable income of $383,000, while concealing $1.37 million he allegedly used to renovate his Lakeville home. If convicted of bank fraud, Johnston faces a maximum of 30 years in prison. E-mail Derrick Williams at: lakeville.thisweek@ecm-inc. com

For the past two years, Gardens of Eagan, an organic cooperative farm in Farmington, has been working to educate the public about the benefits of organic cultivation through a nonprofit program called Organic Field School. The only problem is the school is struggling to find funding. The solution — a Farm Fresh Dinner on Saturday Sept. 11 from 5 to 9 p.m. at the 100-acre farm at 25494 Highview Ave. in Farmington to raise funds for the school. “Raising awareness is as important as raising money,� said Linda Halley, farm manager at Gardens of Eagan. “Most people think organic farming is just about farming without chemicals ... but the main message is that orSee Gardens, 10A

Baldy’s gets liquor license After 10 months, Baldy’s BBQ allowed to sell beer by Derrick Williams

LAKEVILLE

THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

When Baldy’s BBQ opened last October it was Lakeville’s only barbecue restaurant. It was also the first restaurant in years to have a liquor license request denied. But after 10 months, and a partnership shake-up, owner Brian Wheeler finally got his liquor license in July. “It’s a good thing, I’ll tell you that,� Wheeler, 35, said after his application was approved. Lakeville’s City Council denied Wheeler’s application for a liquor license last year after having issues Photo by Derrick Williams

Brian Wheeler, 35, opened Baldy’s BBQ last October, but Lakeville’s City Council denied a liquor license at the time because of Wheeler and his business partner’s past criminal history. In July, however, the City Council approved a 3.2 license, now allowing him to sell beer.

with criminal background checks done on him and his business partner, Sonny Mann. “We were both young once, you know,� Wheeler said at the time. “The stuff we did in the past, it’s just that, the past. I have a wife and a kid now.� But with Mann no longer a partner, Lakeville’s City Council was amenable to a different license this time around. The council approved a 3.2 liquor license, allowing Wheeler to sell beer and malt beverages only. Located at 11276 210th St. W., near the County Road 70 and Interstate 35 interchange, the restaurant features dine-in and take-out options and the menu includes appetizers, children’s items, entrees with traditional barbecue fare, and catering.

Farmington School Board seeks remedy to cash flow shortfall by Kara Hildreth THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

The Farmington School Board authorized the sale of $5 million in Aid Anticipation Certificates to assist the district with cash flow problems from the delay in state education funding. Voting unanimously to approve the sale during the Monday, Aug. 23 school board meeting, the board heard a report by Jeff Seeley of Ehlers and Associates. “What aid anticipation certificates are is a borrowing vehicle, financial instrument, used by schools to meet short-term, cash flow needs,� Seeley said. The sale was slated to take place Wednesday, Aug. 25, with the parameters that the bid would be around 1.25 percent interest or less

on $5 million, Seeley explained. The sale closing date is set for Sept. 14 on the one-year term. “We are seeing the cash flow needs of school districts growing recently when the state has changed how they are paying out funding,� Seeley said. Before last year, the state paid about 90 percent of its education funding during the school year, and then 10 percent was paid in September or October, three months after the school’s fiscal year ends June 30. During the 2009-10 school year, 73 percent of District 192’s $49 million in state funding came during Kara Hildreth is at farmingthe school year.

million in funding payments to District 192. This delay in payment affected the district’s cash flow balance that is needed to pay teacher and staff salaries and building operating costs. “We are seeing more and more schools that are in the situation of borrowing or borrowing more, and this way school districts can pay their bills on a timely basis throughout the year,� Seeley said. District Superintendent Brad Meeks reminded the school board that last year at this time it also approved the sale of aid certificates to cover the cash flow shortfall.

Opinion ECM Editorial Funding crisis prompts hard choices on education With the present K-12 public education system in serious financial trouble, the education of Minnesota’s students is at risk. During the past decade, the increase in state funding to K-12 education has been less than the costs of running the educational program. There were no increases in the basic formula three of the last 10 years, 1 to 2 percent increases four of those years, and 4 percent increases three years. Over the past two years the economic crisis has restricted per-pupil funding increases to zero. The Minnesota Legislature is using the public schools as a credit card by withholding promised aid, forcing school districts to borrow money against next year’s taxes and cash reserves. Districts are forced to borrow

money the state won’t pay and to finance the interest. Some even question if the state will ever repay the millions it is holding back. With the state facing a $6 billion structural budget deficit and with education accounting for half the state’s budget, legislators must look at reducing state funding for education. Minnesotans need to consider how candidates for governor would solve the school financing problem. Local school officials around the state are responding to this funding crisis by going to a fourday week, closing schools, raising fees, cutting extracurricular activities, cutting course offerings and campaigning for extra property tax levies. With each year a bit more of

the school program disappears. We are moving into a great new age of learning and communications one educational crisis at a time, one funding crisis at a time, reaching for the magic bullet that will substitute for the hard work and systemic commitment true change requires. Maybe schools can get by this year, and maybe even next year, but what if the schools can’t be sustained? And why do we want to just “get by”? Determining how to change the delivery system and fund education must be a high priority for the governor and legislators. They must realize the present path of trying to get by and shifting school aids for another year won’t solve the problem. Critics offer solutions: Cut ex-

penditures, economize, be more productive, fund the essentials, cut the frills, raise taxes, test more, test less and eliminate No Child Left Behind. Other suggestions include: Teach more math and science and less of something else, have more charter schools, have fewer charter schools, do more online learning, have more secondary options, have merit pay, change the bargaining laws, have compulsory education for 4-yearolds. Some or all of these suggestions could not save enough dollars to preserve the present model of teaching young people. This is a model based on having quality teachers, teaching an up-to-date curriculum to reasonably sized classes, and using the latest technology.

At stake is the education of Minnesota students and the will of this state to maintain quality education, which many experts agree is at the core of having a productive state. With this in mind, ECM newspapers will examine the local issues schools are confronting. Our intent is to establish a base for discussion in our communities and encourage initiatives that will influence next year’s legislative action.

Superintendent’s Column Welcome to a new school year in Lakeville District 194 by Dr. Gary Amoroso LAKEVILLE AREA PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Welcome to the 201011 school year. I hope that you have had an opportunity to have a relaxing and enjoyable summer. We are preparing to welcome approximately 11,100 students to our schools. As we prepare for a new school year I would like to share a few thoughts about the academic achievement levels of our students during the 2009-10 school year. The Lakeville Area Public School students posted significant gains in math performance and maintained a high level of proficiency in reading on the 2010 MCA Accountability Assessments. These state assessments measure student academic achievement relevant to state standards. In comparison to the seven coun-

ty metropolitan area (48 school districts) Lakeville ranks eighth in overall proficiency and experienced the fifth largest performance gain. Compared to the top 10 district by size, Lakeville ranked first in both math and reading proficiency! I am also very proud to report that our students scored 23.7 on the ACT. This is the highest score in the history of the district. We will continue our efforts to improve student performance. Congratulations to our students and staff for these outstanding accomplishments. As you may know, the district is projecting a $21.2 million deficit for the next biennium (2011-12 and 2012-13 school years). In order to address this financial situation, the Board of Education has unanimously voted to place three levy questions on the Nov. 2 bal-

lot. The first question is a renewal of $236 per pupil unit. Passage of this question would have a $0 property tax impact. If approved the budget deficit is reduced to $15.4 million. This would require the Board to make significant budget adjustments. The second question requests $524 new dollars per pupil unit. If passed, this would generate a $299 additional annual property tax impact on a $250,000 home or approximately $5.75 per week. If questions 1 and 2 are approved, the Board of Education will have a $3 million budget deficit to resolve for the next biennium (201112 and 2012-13 school years). The third levy question is a capital projects technology levy. This question is focused on replacing 875 computers used in our district that are more than seven years old. If approved, the impact

of this question will be a $38 onetime impact for taxes payable in 2011 on a $250,000 home or approximately 73 cents per week. The Board is viewing this financial solution as a “shared sacrifice opportunity.” As many of you know, the district has adjusted its budget over the course of the last four years by approximately $17.7 million. The Board recognizes the challenging financial times that many are facing, but felt it was necessary to provide our community with the opportunity to determine the level of school funding prior to enacting further budget adjustments that could have a significant impact on the educational opportunities of our students. Our goal is to make sure that anyone who chooses to vote in the upcoming election has accurate information regarding the district’s financial situation and questions

that the board has put before the community. An information hotline has been established at (952) 232-2027. If you call with a question, please leave your name and a phone number and you will be contacted and provided with an answer. Two community information meetings have been scheduled to provide information. They will be held on Thursday, Sept. 16, and Wednesday, Oct. 27, at 7 p.m. at Kenwood Trail Middle School. Once again, welcome back to the 2010-11 school year. I greatly appreciate all the support that has been provided to the district in the past. Please feel free to contact me if I can be of service to you. Dr. Gary Amoroso is superintendent of Lakeville Area Public Schools. He can be reached at (952) 232-2000.

Letters We’re in this ‘never-ending battle’ together To the editor: If you’re old enough, you might remember the original “Superman” television series. Its introduction, more memorable than any episode except for the one where Superman reversed the Earth’s rotation, never failed to get a kid good and charged up. Especially stirring was the part about “the never-ending battle for truth, justice and the American way.” I never thought Superman was real. But when I was in my teen years I did come to believe in the superhuman powers of Dr. Martin Luther King. He actually did fight “the never-ending battle for truth, justice and the American way.” Dr. King had a crystal clear understanding of freedom. Like our founding fathers and Abraham Lincoln, he saw that moral behavior is impossible without acknowledgment of and respect for the rights of the individual. He preached that violent ag-

gression is not only futile but immoral. A man of tremendous political power, he strove to unite. He never pitted Americans of one color against Americans of another color, religion against religion or nationality against nationality. We are in the midst of a dire struggle to preserve the individual freedoms recognized as self-evident in the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. The connivers who covet our individual freedoms routinely resort to name calling and slurs to disunite citizens who stand firm with those documents. No matter the issue, the connivers cry “racist” and shake a government-sponsored accusatory finger in the faces of those who refuse to knuckle under to their tyrannical demands. Look to the wisdom of Dr. King in this hour of struggle. Be inspired by his courage and love of peace. Don’t fear the lying connivers. Instead, be grateful that it is now our honored duty as freedomloving Americans to fight the “never-ending battle.” If one of us is not free, not one of us is free.

Aug. 28 is the anniversary of Dr. King’s beautiful “I Have a Dream” speech. Listen to it if you can. If you make it to the finish dry-eyed, you’re a lot stronger than me. JAN DOBSON Lakeville

Reject Madore’s ‘tax and spend’ To the editor: It is indeed fortunate that in 2008 the voters of District 37A chose to oust Shelly Madore as state representative in favor of our present incumbent, Rep. Tara Mack. While Madore never saw a tax she didn’t like and voted in favor of upping state and local taxes of all types, Mack has proven to be a conservative voice in the Minnesota Legislature. Now, Madore has her eyes on a bigger political prize and is seeking to join the (U.S. House Speaker Nancy) Pelosi crew in Washington. Who knows what new tax bills Madore might author and/or support when she is no longer constrained by a balanced-

budget limitation as is imposed at the state level here in Minnesota? Madore is now seeking to unseat our experienced, financially conservative U.S. Rep. John Kline on promises to “earmark” more federal funds for unnamed and unneeded purposes. Kline has appropriately rejected such earmarks as being wasteful spending of the taxpayers’ money. Now, voters in the 2nd Congressional District must reject the tax-andspend liberal propensities that Madore has exhibited heretofore and re-elect John Kline in November. THOMAS J.

Education begins in the home To the editor: Paul Hoffinger whines about his friend who teaches at a public school expecting 40 students per room (Thisweek, Aug. 20). He then makes this statement: “There was a day when that might have worked with particularly well-behaved young people, and as I re-

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

FRANKLIN M. WICKER Lakeville

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

(Kampf),� Burke said. Heman had four months left of his fouryear term. His position as board chair will be filled by vice chair Walter, who conducted the meeting Monday evening. Minnesota statute requires school boards to fill board vacancies, so the Farmington School Board is pursuing one of two options to fill Heman’s seat through the end of the year. Inquiries are under way to see if a former Farmington school board member would agree to serve the remainder of the four-month term. The second option would be to appoint the candidate with the highest votes in the November election to serve out the remainder of Heman’s term before beginning his or her new term. There are three seats on the Farmington School Board up for election in November that include seats held by Heman, Kampf and Walter. Walter is running for re-election. Kampf decided not to seek re-election. A total of seven people have filed to run for the Farmington School Board for four-year terms beginning in January 2011.

Heman/from 1A

for his years of service that he said have benefited parents and students. Julie McKnight, school board member and former school board chair, said in her 11 years serving on the Farmington School Board, she served beside Heman for nine of those years. “It (serving on the board) takes a lot out of a person, and it takes a lot to give back,� said McKnight. The school district and the Farmington community should all be grateful for Heman’s service on the board, district Superintendent Brad Meeks said. Newer school board members, Julie Singewald and Veronica Walter, board vice chair, thanked Bob for his “gracious demeanor, insight and talent� in guiding them as the “newbies� on the school board. “Regardless of what anyone thought about the positions Bob took, he was a public servant,� said Tim Burke, school board member. Burke said Bob cared about the students, schools and employees. “Four years ago when we might not have had a full slate of candidates, he (Heman) came out of Kara Hildreth is at farmingretirement and decided ton.thisweek@ecm-inc.com. to serve alongside John

Council/from 1A eral committees and planning groups. She was appointed by the governor to serve as the metro cities representative for the Board of Water and Soil Resources. Fogarty wants to implement new policies to streamline the commercial businesses permit process that can help businesses start building in 30 days. She wants to complete projects started during her tenure, including a longterm parks plan. Steve Wilson, who is completing his sixth year on the council, also announced his bid for re-election. Wilson’s top three platform issues are to reduce the tax burden on residents, continue to strengthen communications between the city and residents and build on the success of economic development efforts. He wants to continue to position Farmington to be ready for more retail, commercial and industrial businesses. Employed as an account manager for HealthPartners in Bloomington, Wilson and his wife, Andrea, have three children. He is active with Cub Scouts of Farmington Pack 120 and coaches a variety of youth sports. When looking at budget cuts, Wilson wants to make sure residents can expect a dependable police and fire service and see that roads are plowed and parks and trails

As a small business owner in Farmington for more than 20 years, Ristow said he is a firm believer that businesses help by bringing people into the community. Touting his council experience and ability to move Farmington forward, Ristow said he wants to maintain a balanced budget and eliminate unnecessary spending. He said the city’s greatest challenge will be to control spending and attract a greater business base. Jason Bartholomay returns for a second run for city council after running in 2008. His reason is his concern with the inefficiencies of city government and the impact of declining property values. He believes there needs to be tax relief for residents. Bartholomay’s top platform issues are to relieve the tax burden, seek fiscal responsibility and obtain better communications with residents and businesses. Homeowners are suffering from a depressed housing market, and it is imperative that government exhausts every effort to cut costs without burdening homeowners, he said. As a business consultant hired to find ways for companies to expand into different markets, Bartholomay said he can bring those skills to the city council. Bartholomay’s goal, if elected, would be to reduce waste, spur economic devel-

are accessible for family recreation. A top priority for Wilson is to continue discussion on a teen center location in Farmington. He thinks the council should explore a possible partner in the community to make the teen center a reality. He also wants to establish a veterans’ memorial in the next few years. Don Hayes, a Farmington city parks maintenance specialist, filed to run for a city council seat. He plans to retire before he would begin serving in city office. Top priorities for Hayes include improving communications between management and city staff. Two ideas Hayes wants to move forward are to move city council meetings to Tuesday nights, and change council meetings to weekly, instead of twice each month. Hayes wants to investigate the idea of merit pay for city employees who go the extra mile. He said merit pay would reward employees and encourage other city staff to become more committed in their jobs. Jerry “Digger� Ristow, a lifelong Farmington resident and former mayor, will run to serve again on the Farmington City Council. He served from 1992 to 1996 and served as mayor from 1996 to 2004. Ristow wants the city to uphold its logo and commitment of “A Proud Past and a Promising Future.�

opment and increase property values. He would propose a reduction in the elected city office compensation. Lenny Hall, a native of Farmington, said he seeks office because he wants to help improve communications between the city and the public. Hall’s top three platform issues are to improve the city’s wasteful spending during poor economic times, communication, and making better judgments on city projects. A parent of two young adult children, Hall works as a bartender in Castle Rock Township. David Pritzlaff, a former Farmington City Council member who lost his re-election bid in 2008, announced he will run again. As a Farmington resident for 17 years, Pritzlaff works as a self-employed contractor. As a business owner, he said, he can relate to the commercial and industrial needs of the city. Top issues for Pritzlaff are working to make sure city government is more accessible and more financially stable. He said he wants to get rid of wasteful spending that occurred in the past two years. Pritzlaff wants to follow up with continuing city projects and open issues that arose during his previous four-year term. Pritzlaff volunteered to help at Farmington’s Dew Days summer festival, and he also volunteered to help with the new Rambling River Center senior building reconstruction project.

Thisweekend Ex-cop finds calling as novelist ‘Dot to Dot’ author LG Bradshaw featured at Sept. 14 Robert Trail Library event by Andrew Miller THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Rosemount author LG Bradshaw has a funny story about his first encounter with literary critics. Bradshaw, whose given name is Jabra Kawas but uses “LG Bradshaw� as his nom de plume, has been crafting fiction since he was 9 years old. He doesn’t remember the plot or even the title of the first story he wrote, but he does remember the critical response it generated. “I had my dad read it and he was a brutally honest critic – ‘This is not very good’ – and I was like, ‘Dad, I’m 9!’ � he said with a laugh. Harsh parental review notwithstanding, he remained undaunted about his prospects as a writer. Bradshaw, 42, published his first novel, “Dot to Dot,� in April, and will be the featured speaker at the “Meet the Author� event on Tues-

LG Bradshaw day, Sept. 14, at the Robert Trail Library. Bradshaw describes “Dot to Dot,� the first of three novels he completed between June 2009 and June 2010, as a “literary relay race� whose plot involves a U.S. senator, a private detective and a serial killer. The title derives from the book’s central theme of “how we’re all connected.�

“The story jumps from character to character – it’s kind of like connecting the dots,� said Bradshaw, who cites writers as diverse as horror novelist Stephen King and “high literary� author JD Salinger as influences. A former Minneapolis police officer, Bradshaw opted for early retirement earlier this year after 14 years on the force, partly to devote more time to his writing. He’s now looking to publish the two novels he completed after “Dot to Dot,� – “Epicenter� and “The Walls.� Bradshaw’s appearance at the Robert Trail Library on Sept. 14 is the fourth event in the “Meet the Author� series hosted by the Rosemount Area Arts Council. Past speakers in the series have been Craig Macintosh, author of the World War II suspense novel “The For-

tunate Orphans�; longtime Golden Gophers sports announcer Ray Christensen, author of “Ray Christensen’s Gopher Tales,� and former Star Tribune political reporter Betty Wilson, author of “Rudy! the People’s Governor: The Life and Times of Rudy Perpich.� While the focus of Bradshaw’s “Meet the Author� talk will be on his new novel and his writing process, there will be a questionand-answer session, and Bradshaw said he’s OK discussing his experiences as a police officer. “Everybody always asks if I ever had to fire my gun,� he said. “Dot to Dot� is available for purchase from online booksellers such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble, and through the author’s website, www.lgbradshaw.com. Andrew Miller is at andrew. miller@ecm-inc.com.

Directions to movie set: Take a left after the next corn field Eureka Township farmhouse set for feature film by Laura Adelmann THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Signs along County Road 86 in Eureka Township direct film crews and chauffeured actors to an 1800s-era picket-fenced farmhouse in rural Dakota County. Crowded around the yard are people, many wearing ear pieces, sitting quietly amid an array of tripods, ladders, portable lights, cords, tables and various props, including a box of Grape Nuts cereal. A newcomer to the house is quickly “shhhed,� and a bright pink sign on the home’s kitchen door warns there’s a “hot set� inside. Suddenly, the scene apparently complete, everyone moves into action, rushing into the kitchen, carrying equipment in and out. For seven days in August, actors and crews were busily filming for the feature-length motion picture, “Souvenirs,� an independent film. “Souvenirs� screenplay writer Marc Conkoin said the film, which stars James Cromwell and his son John Cromwell as well as Mary Kay Fortier-Spalding of Minneapolis, is about a 13-year-old boy who finds his grandfather’s World War II footlocker, and gets him to agree to share the stories behind three of the items in the box. Conkoin said the boy eventually becomes a soldier himself and serves in Iraq. “It’s about how their experiences in war parallel each other, and how this day on the porch that they share really helps each of them to deal with these experiences,� Conkoin said, “The story is really anchored here at this porch.�

Outside the kitchen of the Eureka Township home, a film crew prepared equipment for the next scene. Actors waiting for their scenes or getting a make-up retouch waited in the tent in the background or in trailers brought in for the production.

Actors James Cromwell and Mary Kay Fortier-Spalding sit on the front porch of the Eureka Township home where the feature-length movie “Souvenirs� was being filmed last week. “Souvenirs� producer Craig Christiansen said the story’s farmhouse is a key part of the story, but finding a home like the one they’d dreamed of was a challenge. “It took us a long time to find this place. Farmhouses like this don’t come around very often,� Christiansen said. The group has filmed scenes throughout Minnesota, including Iraq war scenes that were done in a Mankato quarry, and ex-

pected to wrap up last week. But before the movie will be seen in theaters, the group has to find a distributor. “It’s a huge project. ‌ I want to have this do very, very well for us all, but also for the Minnesota film community,â€? Christiansen said.

Dakota County

County 2011 budget plans filled with uncertainties by Laura Adelmann THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Dakota County commissioners are grappling with many unknowns in setting the 2011 budget. Among the challenges commissioners discussed in an Aug. 24 budget work session: falling property values, the governor’s race, anticipated state funding losses and economic trends. While many factors are still unknown, county officials are considering raising the property tax 1 percent in 2011, which would equate to a property tax cut on the county portion of most property tax bills due to falling property values. In both 2012 and 2013, commissioners are considering 2 percent levy increases. Commissioners also talked

about raising the 2011 Regional Rail levy 38 percent. Although the percentage increase sounds significant, the result on a medianvalue home, which for 2011 is $206,100, would increase $2.35 per year, going from $5.69 per year to $8.04 annually. The funds would help pay for continued transit improvements along Cedar Avenue and the Robert Street corridor. But much of the budget discussion centered on the county’s rising health insurance premiums. Without any change to the county’s base health insurance plan, the organization’s insurance costs will increase $1.8 million in 2011, the equivalent of 21 jobs, said Communications Director Gail Plewacki.

Already, county department directors have cut spending and left positions unfilled, planning on a budget that is $10.6 million below the 2010 level of $368 million. By 2013, the county expects the budget to drop below 2010 levels by another $55 million. But as county commissioners have concentrated on the likelihood of layoffs next year, union representatives are concerned about the county’s proposed change to its health care coverage to avoid a $1.8 million premium increase in 2011. Under a new health plan, employees would have three free medical visits and pay a higher deductible than under its previous plan. The proposed plan, “Three for Free,� includes an indi-

vidual out-of-pocket limit of $2,000 and $4,000 maximum for any size family. Commissioners said some county employees have pleaded with them for the county insurance plan to remain unchanged because of ongoing health issues. Their concerns prompted the county administration to address a letter to employees, warning that if the county doesn’t change its plan, health insurance could become an unaffordable benefit. Historically, the county has proven more expensive to insure, and recently claims outpaced premiums. That record makes it challenging for the county to receive competitive bids for insurance. In the letter to employees, county administration ex-

plained it’s facing “a perfect storm of budget pressures.� The letter explains, “state aid to counties is steadily shrinking. Investment revenues are down significantly. A variety of costs are increasing, including the county’s contribution to the pension plan for employees. Raising property taxes simply cannot begin to address all of these challenges.� During the workshop, commissioners urged negotiators to help union officials understand the county’s predicament and agree to the insurance plan. The county will set its maximum levy at the Sept. 14 board meeting, and will adopt a final budget Dec. 14.

Numerous unforeseen project changes added costs to the design plans for the Cedar Avenue transitway, but county staff negotiated with its consultant to keep the project within budget. County Commissioner Paul Krause thanked SRF Consulting Group representatives at an Aug. 17 Physical Development Committee meeting for their work on designing the state’s first bus rapid transit corridor, Cedar Avenue, and their willingness to work out contract amendment amounts. In May, SRF gave the county a 54-page request outlining $1.09 million in additional work performed not described in its original

$2 million contract, funded with state bonds distributed through the Met Council. Additional work cited included streetscape design, drainage design, and various plan modifications. Dakota County staff spent months discussing the requests, finally reaching an agreement to pay another $465,641 in state bond funds for the work. Additional design costs are expected to be offset by right-of-way acquisition costs that were significantly reduced by the design changes. The amount keeps the design work within 6 percent to 8 percent of the estimated construction fees, as is expected in a typical design contract.

Previously, the county and Apple Valley had agreed to split additional design costs of $80,000 for requested streetscape elements added in the city. In addition, Apple Valley also paid another $20,485 for additional utility design work it requested. County Transportation Director Mark Krebsbach said in the future, county staff will work to catch any other out-of-scope contract amendments earlier in the process.

ture. The goal of the fund raiser is to raise enough money to provide training and formal internship programs for apprentices at Gardens of Eagan, Halley said. Funds will also go toward providing tours of the farm for local school children, she said. “It’s important for them to learn where their food comes from,� Halley said. “Kids, more than anyone, shouldn’t be exposed to chemicals, and need to see how an organic farm works.� In addition to raising funds for the Organic Field School, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Emergency Foodshelf Network, which serves families in the Twin Cities area. “Raising awareness about the food shelf is equally important,� Halley said.

A growing movement Gardens of Eagan was established in Eagan in 1973 by Martin and Atina Diffley, family farmers who wanted to get into the growing organic market. The business was moved to Farmington in the late 1980s when Eagan began to develop around the farm’s former site. In 2007, the Diffleys decided to retire and sold Gardens of Eagan to its current owner, Wedge Community Cooperative. Today, Gardens of Eagan sells produce to cooperative grocery stores across the metro. It currently has 20 employees, and more than half of them are agriculture students, Halley said.

The South Suburban Conference will have a few unknowns in 2010 for volleyball. Four unknowns to be exact: Apple Valley, Burnsville, Eagan and Rosemount, four yearly contenders, will have new head coaches this season. All of the schools hired veteran volleyball coaches who were either junior varsity, assistants or worked within the junior volleyball programs in their respective communities. But they’re still unknowns to many teams.

players to graduation, both teams should kick the ball off right where they left it. It will be almost impossible to match last year’s success for Apple Valley, but the Eagles could easily be in the mix for another state title this season. One team that will be in its way again this year is Eagan, which would love to get over the mountain that is Apple Valley. The Wildcats were close to the summit last year and the gap may be closer in 2010.

Lakeville a volleyball hot spot in the state by Andy Rogers THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

An uneducated, quick glance at the volleyball roster and it’s easy to dismiss Lakeville North. With three seniors, one may think the Panthers are a work in progress. Not when you have girls such as Kellie McNeil, Alyssa Goehner and Taylr McNeil. With them you’re talking South Suburban Conference, Section 3AAA, and state contender. The Panthers have eight returning players who took them to a 19-10 record in 2009. Seniors Kellie McNeil, Paige Leclerc and Whitney Abrahamson will provide the leadership in 2010. Few girls have played for Lakeville with the setting ability of McNeil. Setters might not be the flashiest position on the court, but coach Milan Mader’s goal isn’t entertainment. “From my own experience, anytime we’ve made the state tournament, we made it because we have a good setter,” Mader said. “In that department, we’re good.” Goehner and Taylr McNeil are freshmen, but they’ll be the main forces at outside hitters along with Allie Baier. “They’re better than last year, too. A big benefit of any volleyball player is leaping ability to get way up above the net,” Mader said. “It’s a big plus for them.” Lakeville North en-

tered the season as the No. 1-ranked team in Class AAA by the Minnesota Volleyball Coaches Association, but Mader isn’t going to prognosticate before the first game. His teams have been ranked No. 1 in the state before. “I’m concerned about injury, illness,” Mader said. “I hope none of that is going to haunt the team.” Mader likes to load his schedule with difficult teams. North will open the season against defending Class A state champions Bethlehem Academy on Tuesday. The Panthers will participate in the three premier varsity volleyball tournaments in the state, including the Marshall Tournament Sept. 10, the Apple Valley Invitational on Sept. 24 and the Todd Bachman Invitational at Lakeville North on Oct. 8. Along with playing in the South Suburban Conference with top-ranked teams such as Eastview, Apple Valley and Lakeville South, the team has a nonconference schedule that includes Wayzata and Shakopee, the top two teams in the state last season. “In a couple weeks everyone will know who the top teams are,” Mader said.

Lakeville South Lakeville South should be one of North’s toughest competitors for the South Suburban Conference title this year. The Cougars have several top returning players, includ-

ing captains Kelly Davenport, Monica Turner, and McKell Anderson. All three were named to the All-Conference team in 2009. They will be joined by three other starters from a year ago in Jazzmyn Tingelhoff, Elle Roesner, and Megan Heimerman. Kaitlin VanWinkle will step in to the middle for departed senior Jennie Kalbfell. South will also have back Allie Mosser, who returned to Lakeville after two years living out of state. Mosser was the starting setter for her team since she was a freshman. The Cougars will also have Baylee Meier, Amanda Hillyer, Katelyn Schwartz, and Emma Ritchie contributing on the court this year in their first full year of varsity play. Although many of the returning players are juniors, they’re loaded with experience. “Our playing maturity will be stronger than last year and we look to finish again in the top of our section and conference,” Nelson said. South has a strong base of middle hitters and blockers to go with some athletic setters to keep defenses guessing, according to Nelson. “These girls have played together now since most of them were freshman,” Nelson said. “The chemistry on the court is the strongest it has ever been.” The team entered the sea-

and it owns the crown until someone else takes it. Both programs will be right back up there again in 2010. Rosemount and Apple Valley are a year older and year better than last year. They were both young last year, but gave their opponents everything they could handle. After a bit of a down year, Lakeville South could be right back in the mix. The program has been one of the best in the state since the school opened.

Al Newman coaches third base during an Apple Valley 76ers American Legion baseball game. He was recently named the Apple Valley High School varsity head coach.

Al Newman to coach Apple Valley baseball Former Minnesota Twin will replace Al Iversen by Andy Rogers THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Newman broke into the big leagues as a player with the Montreal Expos in 1985. He signed with the Twins in 1987 and played a key role during the team’s run to the World Series championship. He continued with the Twins for the next four seasons and again played a role in the 1991 championship run. Newman finished his playing career in 1992 with the Texas Rangers. Newman replaces Al Iversen, who resigned in June to become the head baseball coach at Lakeville South High School.

Apple Valley High School has announced that Al Newman has been hired as the head baseball coach. Although Newman is probably best known for his time with the Minnesota Twins, he’s been a coach with Apple Valley’s American Legion baseball team for the past three years. Newman’s coaching career began with the Arizona Fall League, working his way up through the Minnesota Twins system. Newman was the third-base coach for the Minnesota Twins from 2002 to 2005. Rogers is at During that time, the Twins Andy andy.rogers@ecm-inc.com. won three division titles.

In the past two seasons, the Farmington boys soccer team has won about eight games. This season, coach Julian Buss says, that should change. The biggest difference between this roster and last year’s roster is experience. Nine of 11 starters are previous letter-winners. “This roster is loaded with year-round soccer players who know how to play the game and who have been working together on the field for years,” Buss said. The team’s goal is to finish in the top three in the Missota Conference and in the Section 1AA tournament. Team captains are midfielder Christian Thao, midfielder Justen Thelen and forward and defenseman Samuel Leske. Chad Stivers is back in goal. Other projected starters are Blake Smith, Brandon Scott, Cole Landwehr, Michael Ricker, Elijah Kierski and Tyler Petter-McCauley.

Coach Buss believes his squad can compete with anyone out there. “They play together all fall, they play indoor in the winter, they play spring and summer soccer,” Buss said. “These boys are ready to go.” An outsider might look at the roster and see many young starters. “We do have a number of freshmen added to the roster so far, in addition to sophomores and juniors, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see a couple more of our young (junior varsity) players see varsity time as well,” Buss said. “Although size and youth can be a disadvantage, all of our younger players have speed, explosiveness, elusiveness, and years of playing experience.”

Lakeville North girls

At state the Panthers lost in the first round to Woodbury, one of the best teams in the country in 2009. Since then, North has seen its roster sheet require nearly a full rewrite. For starters, the Panthers lost 12 seniors to graduation in the spring. Kathryn Schwartz has also taken over as the head coach. The team will have familiar faces such as Simone Kolander, Taylor Brownrigg, Chelsey Neitzke and Solena Cavalli-Singer returning to the field. Brownrigg, Neitzke and Cavalli-Singer are captains and were part of the 2009 team’s success. They’re hoping to pick up where they left off. Schwartz feels the team has good midfielders. They should have good possession and field recognition. The key will be finding a goalie since both the team’s goalies from 2009 graduated.

Lakeville North qualified for the state tournament in 2009 for the first time since 2004, when the school was just Lakeville High School and South was still under Andy Rogers is at construction. andy.rogers@ecm-inc.com.

SWAT prep time Photos by Rick Orndorf

More than 40 Minneapolis and St. Paul SWAT team officers trained on methods for how to perform highrisk search warrants during a mock training exercise held at the Flint Hills Resources Training Facility in Rosemount, Aug. 24. Flint Hills has provided the training grounds for state, local and federal police and fire, military and government group training at no charge for the past decade. The oil refinery company recently upgraded its grounds to include a mock duplex and apartment building, where this training was held, as well as an obstacle course and a K-9 course. “The facility offers the ideal environment for us to train because we are able to set up different types of scenarios within one building,� said Minneapolis Sgt. Dave Clifford. “By providing these first-rate facilities to us, Flint Hills is truly making the community a better and safer place.�

Tracey Louise Hill Our lovely Tracey, age 52, of Apple Valley, MN. is at peace with her Heavenly Father. She ended her courageous 10-month battle with ovarian cancer, filled with hope and optimism each day, on Saturday, August 14, 2010, at the N.C. Little Hospice in Edina. Born in Galesburg, IL, May 8, 1958, to Douglas and Constance Bergmann, she graduated from St. Olaf College in 1980 with degrees in Norwegian and Music History. She joined First Federal as a teller, and finished her banking career as the manager of the Teller Training and Manager Training Department to stay home and raise her daughters. She returned to work as a church secretary for the Music Director at Shepherd of the Valley (SOTV). Her last career move was to Apple Valley High School with a student support program for 9 years. Tracey was a compassionate, kind, and caring person with her family and friends. She loved to sing, and participated in ensembles and choirs at SOTV, and sang at Carnegie Hall and in Germany with her church choir. She loved to travel with family and friends, both in U.S. and abroad. She loved the interaction with students, helping chaperone school music trips with Jefferson's Band program to Ireland, Italy, and other venues in the U.S. for 8 years. She led many family camping trips; some of her favorite places were beaches on the Oceans and the Rockies in Estes Park. She enjoyed music and dance, especially kicking up her heels to Swing music. She enjoyed getting exercise outdoors including biking, walking, tennis, and golf. Tracey was an avid supporter of fine arts and athletics, as she followed her husband and daughters' events at Apple Valley, Eastview, Kennedy, and Jefferson High Schools. We are indebted to Minnesota Oncology, Dr. A. Catherine Casey, and Nurse Nancy for their relentless care. She was very strong in her Lutheran faith; we are thankful for the care, support, and advice from the SOTV staff, especially Pastor Chris Smith. Tracey will be deeply missed by her family and friends. Blessed be the memory of Tracey Louise Hill. Tracey is survived by her loving husband of thirty years, Steve; her daughters, Kirsten and Siri; her granddaughter, Eva Luisa; her parents, Douglas and Constance Bergmann; her brothers Scott (Agma) and Curt (Susan); and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. She is preceded in death by her grandparents, Frances and Ida Neseth, Edwin and Hilda Bergmann, and her Aunt Corky. The visitation will be held on Monday, August 23, 2010, from 4-7 P.M. at Henry W. Anderson Mortuary in Apple Valley and on Tuesday at the church an hour prior to the service. The Funeral Service will be held at 11:00 am Tuesday, August 24, 2010 at Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church in Apple Valley. Please join the family after the service for a short lunch, followed by a procession to the Acacia Cemetery. Memorials can be gifted to the family.

Scott Erdman played a world record-setting 74 hours of pool at Shooters Billiard Club in Burnsville last weekend while also raising money for the American Diabetes Association.

Eagan man pockets world pool record at Shooters

Scott Erdman played billiards continuously for 74 hours THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

It was the early morning hours – when the pool hall was quiet and sleep was beckoning – that were the toughest, Scott Erdman said. But he credits the support of his wife and his friends with helping him stay on his feet for 74 hours as he broke the world record for most consecutive hours playing pool. The previous record, set just last year by a North Carolina man, was 72 hours. Erdman, of Eagan, broke the record at 9 a.m. Monday, Aug. 23, at Shooters Billiard Club in Burnsville. He began playing at 7 a.m. Friday, Aug. 20. “After the first day I was like, ‘I don’t know if this is such a good idea,’ � he said. “After that it got fairly easy, but toward the end I was running on fumes.� Shooters general manager Duane Marquardt said he loved the idea, but was initially skeptical about Erdman’s goal. “I thought he was on the crazy side,� he said. “I didn’t think he realized how long 72 hours is.�

That skepticism wasn’t exactly abated after the first day, Marquardt said. “After 24 hours he definitely looked sleep-deprived. I didn’t think he would make it,� he said. “But then he caught his second wind.� In all, Erdman played 393 games against 93 opponents. He was allowed only a five-minute break every hour, which he used to rest his increasingly swollen feet. A pedometer revealed he walked a total of 41.8 miles around the pool table during the three-day event. He also lost five pounds. Erdman, who has been playing pool since he was about 10, said he’s been interested for years in breaking some kind of world record but just never got around to it. “I finally just figured, you know, I’m not getting any younger,� he said. “And my wife and some of my family and friends have diabetes, so I wanted to tie it in to a fundraising event.� The event, which even drew players from other cities who wanted to participate, raised more than $3,500 for the American Diabetes Asso-

ciation. “I had strangers coming in from out of town who just saw me on the news and said they wanted to be a part of this,� he said. “I had a lot of support.� Erdman worked with Shooters to line up enough players for every hour around the clock. The pool hall remained open 24 hours a day through the event. “The toughest times to fill were definitely early mornings and late nights,� Marquardt said. “But the final hours created some excitement – people really wanted to be here.� Now Erdman will submit all the necessary documentation – names, witnesses, video, photos – to the Guinness Book of World Records, which will verify the record before sending him a certificate. It could take a few months, he said. Erdman said he’s proud that he accomplished his goal, but it’s not something he’d want to do again. “I was just happy I completed what I set out to do,� he said.
