Lakeville liquor stores to open Sundays Events planned at Heritage location by Laura Adelmann SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

After historic action by the Minnesota Legislature and Gov. Mark Dayton allowing Sunday liquor sales, Lakeville municipal liquor stores will be open seven days a week, beginning July 2. “We are planning quite the kickoff,� said Brenda Visnovec, Lakeville liquor operations director.

“When you think about it, in the history of alcohol sales, it’s like next to the repeal of prohibition. This is probably one of the biggest days in alcohol sales.� In celebration of the change, which occurs during Pan-O-Prog, the city’s municipal liquor stores will feature some commemorative items for sale, including bottles of bourbon that say “I bought mine on Sunday July 2nd, 2017� with the city’s liquor logo etched in it. Can koozies will be given away to the first 100

people who spend $50 or more at every liquor store location. The Heritage location will also be the opening kickoff celebration site for the liquor store’s monthlong fundraiser for the Lakeville Fire Department, dubbed “Fire it up for Public Safety.� “We are trying to raise money for some water rescue equipment,� Visnovec said. “So we’ll be asking Photo submitted for donations at the door The Lakeville municipal liquor stores will sell commemat all our locations.� orative bottles of bourbon engraved with “I bought mine on Sunday July 2nd, 2017,� to mark the state’s historic See LIQUOR, 12A day allowing Sunday liquor store sales.

A job well done Lakeville police Det. Dave Watson was presented the American Legion Post 44 Law Officer of the Year award at June 5 City Council meeting. Watson was chosen as the American Legion’s Law Officer of the Year for the state of Minnesota. Police Chief Jeff Long said the department nominated Watson based on his credentials. Hired in 1993 by then Lakeville Police Chief Don Gudmundson, Watson was promoted to detective in 1999. Long said Watson also serves as a certified fire investigator, is a U.S. Army veteran and is active in many professional organizations, including serving as president of the Tri-County Law Enforcement Association. Long noted Watson has received more than 100 commendations and awards, most of which have come from the FBI, U.S. Postal Inspectors Of-fice and the U.S. Department of Treasury. Watson has received an international commendation by the Narcotic Enforcement Officers Association and an award recognizing his teamwork with the International Association of Arson Investigators. Watson was injured and on leave for six months after capturing a dangerous fugitive, for which he received awards from the Military Order of the Purple Heart and the United States Police Hall of Fame. Long said Watson has also received many thank-you letters over the years, including one thanking him for reuniting a family. “I am privileged to work in such a noble profession and with people like Detective Watson that are dedicated to serving our community,� Long said. American Legion Post 44 Cmdr. Steve Sandberg and Vice Cmdr. Steve Buck presented Watson the award, after which Watson received a standing ovation. Council members expressed appreciation and pride in Watson’s accomplishments and the work of the department. “Thank you for making our city so proud,� Council Member Colleen LaBeau said. “We’re proud of you. Thank you very much for your service.� Photo by Laura Adelmann

The Lakeville City Council unanimously approved an ordinance June 5 allowing food trucks to operate downtown, but the business owner requesting the change expressed disappointment with the result. Angry Inch Brewing owner Jon Erickson said the amount of restrictions included in the ordinance will severely limit the number of trucks able to set up in downtown Lakeville. “It’s not what we want-

ed,� Erickson said. “I feel they’re putting too many restrictions on it and it’s not going to allow us to get any food trucks to come down here.� The ordinance allows one food truck per parking lot in the downtown district on federal holidays and Fridays and Saturdays between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m. Food truck owners must apply for a $50 per day license and carry at least $2 million worth of liability insurance for injury and $2 million against property damage. Erickson also said it also took the council so long to make a decision on an ordinance, many of the most popular food trucks

At the City Council’s

and they did, but Erickson said many food truck operators already have schedules set. He said they are left See TRUCKS, 12A

A fee is charged at some locations to cover distribution costs.

Before asking voters to renew an operating levy and possibly add another funding increase this November, the Lakeville Area School Board is seeking input from voters.

Hundreds of registered voters within District 194’s boundaries will be randomly selected to participate in a survey to be conducted by Springsted Inc., a company specializing in public sector consultations. School Board members debated the wording of questions that would be posed to voters during a special meeting June 1. Some of the questions

indicate possible areas new funds, if sought, could be spent on in the district. The survey questions reference options for the money that include band, music, choir, foreign languages or computer science programs and providing additional transportation options for student activities and academic help outside regular school hours. Superintendent Lisa

Snyder said many of the students who need extra academic help before or after school lack access to transportation. Laura Peterson, student transportation manager at the district’s busing provider Schmitty & Sons, said this school year, the company provided transportation for students to an early-morning learning session and a STEM program at Lake Marion El-

ementary, a Rise program at Oak Hills Elementary, an Empower program at Impact Academy and an after-school homework help class at Kenwood Trail Middle School. Peterson said the company provides transportation as required by school request. “If we receive a request for transportation, obviSee INPUT, 5A

Assistance dog keeps Burnsville woman upright Burnsville resident, new partner graduate from training by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Now on her second assistance dog, Kimberly Hodges still marvels at what the highly trained animals can do. “It is so fascinating to watch these guys work,� the 67-year-old Burnsville resident said. “They’re just amazing. They can do everything but cook dinner and put the dishes away.� Hodges, who has multiple sclerosis, uses her dog to steady her gait and help her keep her balance when she walks. The dog opens and closes Hodges’ cupboards and refrigerator, which have tug fixtures on them. The dog fetches Hodges’ shoes and would be taught to get the phone if she had a land line. “But I only have my cell, and I’m scared she’ll eat it or bite through it,� Hodges said. She and her new partner — a 2-year-old standard poodle named Shirley — are among more than 15 teams graduating

from assistance dog training at Can Do Canines in New Hope. The organization, which provides free assistance dogs to qualifying people with disabilities, is holding a graduation ceremony Saturday, June 10, at 1 p.m. Hodges brought Shirley home to her condo, where she lives alone, about six weeks ago. “We are still in a learning curve,� Hodges said. “The problem with a poodle is they’re so smart, the second-smartest dog behind a border collie. Whatever she can get out of, sometimes she will test me a lot, and we have to have some conversations. But she’s pretty good. We get along pretty well, I would say.� Hodges was working as a purchasing manager in Minneapolis 20 years ago when she learned of her disease in a lunch-hour doctor’s appointment. Hodges was due back at work for a meeting, but her career effectively ended that day. “They were hoping I had Lyme disease,� Hodges said. “So my doctor told me I had MS. I said, ‘I have to go to get back to work.’ And I turned around and collapsed. So, yeah, it was

kind of a shock.� The disease, while slow to progress in her case, has left her right leg, arm and foot very weak, said Hodges, who wears a leg brace. She’s mobile, but balance is a problem. About eight years ago a friend in Bible study told Hodges about assistance dogs. She looked online and found Can Do Canines, which provides dogs free to people with disabilities including diabetes, seizure responses, hearing loss, mobility challenges and autism. Hodges completed the application — which included a doctor’s endorsement — and was paired with Bishop, a smoothcoated collie. Dogs from Can Do Canines start their training as puppies with basic obedience and early assistance skills, in the homes of volunteers or in one of three prisons in Minnesota and Wisconsin. After 18 months they’re returned to the organization for more training. Dog-partner matches are based on the dog’s size and skills and the person’s needs, Hodges said. The partners train together — including going out in public to see how the dog

and had trouble getting in and out of the car and being on his feet for very long,� said Hodges, who sent Bishop to live with a friend. “Yes, I miss him terribly,� she said. “But I get to go see him.� Hodges lived in Florida for a year and a half after Bishop retired but returned to Minnesota to be near doctors and family. She immediately applied for another assistance dog. “Because I had one previously, I didn’t have to go to the back of the line, which is like 181 people,� she said. Shirley, whose duties include pushing heavy handicap-access buttons to open doors, wears a halti harness with a handle affixed that Hodges grips when she walks. “She walks right next to me,� Hodges said. “If I start going over to one side, she’ll kind of push Photo by John Gessner me to the other side, and I Burnsville resident Kimberly Hodges and her new assis- just hold onto her and she tance dog Shirley are graduating from training at Can steadies my gait.� Do Canines in New Hope. “Instead of holding onto a cane or a walker,� behaves — before a match ey to train these dogs,� she said, “I have a dog.� is finalized, she said.

Apple Valley man charged after fatal crash An Apple Valley man was charged on Tuesday with two counts of criminal vehicular homicide in the crash that killed a St. Paul woman just south of downtown Minneapolis, according to the Hennepin County Attorney’s Office. Israel Delos Santos, 30, was charged with criminal vehicular homicide for leaving the scene of a death and for gross negligence in the death of 47-year-old Krista Sandstrom. Delos Santos was expected to make his first court appearance Wednesday. According to the criminal complaint, Sandstrom was driving her Honda Fit west on 15th

Street East and had the green light just before 6 p.m. Thursday, June 1. Delos Santos was driving a Chevrolet Trailblazer north on Park Avenue South when he ran a red light and struck the Honda. Witnesses said they saw Delos Santos and his passenger get out of the Trailblazer after the crash. The passenger appeared to hide a liquor bottle in nearby grass and then both ran away. Delos Santos was found by police not far away, and after some resistance, was handcuffed and put into an ambulance and taken to Hennepin County Medical Center to check him for injuries and to obtain a blood sample

to determine if he was drunk, according to the complaint. The results of that blood-alcohol sample have not been reported. Witnesses told police that Delos Santos appeared to be traveling about 70 miles per hour on Park Avenue and had run three red lights on the city street, according to the complaint. Investigators removed the airbag control module from the Trailblazer and its data indicated the SUV was traveling at least 66 miles per hour at the time of the crash and no brake was applied.

Dakota County offering grants for well sealing Dakota County is offering grants to residents on a firstcome, first-serve basis to help pay the cost of sealing unused or abandoned wells on their properties. Reimbursement varies based on the well construction. Reimbursements average $900 per well. Well owners will not be reimbursed more than the total invoiced amount. Well sealing, which involves clearing debris from a well and filling it with grout, must be done by a contractor licensed

by the Minnesota Department of Health. Well owners should not attempt to pull the well pump or seal the well on their own. Unused wells that aren’t properly sealed can contaminate groundwater — the source of drinking water for three out of four Minnesotans — and affect nearby drinking water wells. For more information or to apply for a grant, visit www. dakotacounty.us and search “well sealing grant� or call 952-891-7000.

Burnsville cop cleared in shooting of armed man by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A Burnsville police sergeant had legal justification to kill an armed and suicidal man last September, Dakota County Attorney James Backstrom announced Wednesday. Sgt. Steve Stoler, who shot the man three times after the man pointed his gun at Stoler, isn’t criminally liable, said Backstrom, who reviewed the case for possible charges. Stoler shot 48-year-old Jamie Joseph Lewis to protect himself and others from death or great bodily harm and to prevent the escape of a fleeing felon who had threatened deadly force — both of which are justifications under Minnesota law, Backstrom said in a news release. “Although I have concluded that the use of deadly force by this police officer was legally justified in this instance, any loss of life is a tragic occurrence,� Backstrom said. Police responded at 8:20 p.m. Sept. 26 to a crisis call from Lewis’ former girlfriend at the Dahcotah View Apartments, 1605 Cliff Road E., where he lived. She said Lewis was upset that she had recently broken up with him and had made numerous suicide threats before leaving the apartment

with a handgun, according to the news release. She also told police Lewis had a history of severe depression and was a convicted felon who had told her “he would go to prison for 10 years if caught with a weapon and that he would rather die than go back to prison.� With guidance from a State Patrol helicopter, police located Lewis at about 9:30 p.m. near a commercial building next to the apartment complex. Stoler and officer Bret Levin were the first to arrive. Levin shone his squad spotlight on Lewis. Through their rifle scopes the officers saw Lewis lying on the ground holding a gun. He ignored their repeated shouts to drop it. Lewis pointed it at his head a few times before sitting up and pointing it “directly towards� Stoler, causing him to “fear for his life, the lives of fellow officers, and members of the public nearby.� Stoler fired his rifle seven times, striking Lewis three times. Next to his body was a loaded .45-caliber handgun. Lewis had a blood-alcohol concentration of 0.62. Before arriving at the scene Stoler and other officers were informed of Lewis’ vulnerable state — the breakup, depression, suicide warn-

ings and the fact he had recently quit his job, the news release said. Lewis had said he would “go down fighting� to avoid 10 years in prison for being caught with a gun. He had been drinking beer and taking No Doze. A “reasonable officer would believe that Lewis was not only a threat to himself, but to police officers who would come into contact with him,� the news release said. It was the second fatal officerinvolved shooting in Burnsville in 2016. On March 17 last year, three officers killed Map Kong, 38, of Chaska, outside the McDonald’s at 2901 Highway 13 W. Kong had been sitting in his car acting erratically and brandishing a large knife. He ignored repeated warnings to drop the knife before bolting from the car with the knife and running toward Highway 13. The Dakota County grand jury concluded that officers Taylor Jacobs, John Mott and Maksim Yakovlev were legally justified in using deadly force.

Apple Valley High School incident investigation continues Police say complaints have not been received regarding a slur or excessive force by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The Apple Valley Police Department says it plans to have its investigation into an incident that led to the arrest of an Apple Valley High School student Thursday wrapped up fairly shortly, according to Capt. Nick Francis, since students are at the school until June 8. While initial information about an argument between a Muslim girl and a male student and the subsequent arrest of the girl reported that the boy used an expletive when calling the girl a terrorist and that a school security

officer and police school resource officer used excessive force against her, Francis said the department has not received any complaint that the slur was said or that there was excessive force used by the school resource officer. The Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District said its employee — security officer Jason Rieck — was placed on administrative leave pending completion of an investigation. The leave decision was made by district administration and is a common practice in such incidents. The district said Rieck has been a security officer since September 2013 and there have been no complaints against him since that time. He is one of two district-employed security officers at the school. Francis said there is an active investigation, the re-

sults of which will be public once it is released. He confirmed there was an argument between two students when an Apple Valley staff member attempted to intervene. One student was removed from the school, taken to the police department and released to her family. Francis said the police department’s school resource officer and staff at Apple Valley High School are investigating the incident. He said the police department and the school district collectively are working toward ensuring there is a positive and safe learning environment for all students so it is welcoming to everyone of every ethnicity in the school and the community. Francis said it was disappointing to hear that statements were made and

put in quotes about complaints that have not been reported to police. “It makes it challenging for us to do our investigation,� he said. The Council on American-Islamic RelationsMinnesota said a security officer and a school resource officer used excessive force against the girl, who alleged that a male student used an expletive when calling her a terrorist. The girl’s hijab (the traditional head covering worn by Muslim women and girls) was removed during her arrest, CAIR said. A phone call to CAIR on Monday was not returned as of the posting of this story. Contact Tad Johnson at tad. johnson@ecm-inc.com or at twitter.com/editorTJ.

Safety Zone aims to teach in Farmington Dew Days addition focuses on people young and old by Maren Bauer SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

to also use the Dew Days event to recruit youths, both boys and girls, ages 14 to 21 to start a venturing program. McNulty says they want to give youths the experience of what it’s like to be a firefighter, while also teaching them to work together and learn leadership and responsibility. The Dew Days event will also focus on teaching families what to do when a smoke detector or carbon monoxide detector goes off, how to change the batteries, how to create a family safety plan and escape route, and the importance of having a weather alert radio at home. As a reward, children and families can spray the firehoses. They hope to make the experience as realistic as possible; local fire departments have donated equipment (masks, helmets, boots, etc.) so that people can get a true sense of what it’s like to fight fires. The Safety Zone will be giving demonstrations with the fire engines on the hour Saturday, June 17, from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. More about Dew Days is inside this edition and online at farmingtondewdays.com.

With a jovial, clear, Minnesotan accent, Dan McNulty is happy to talk about the new Safety Zone at Farmington Dew Days. He’s excited about the summer and bringing a new feature to Dew Days to teach people young and old about being safe. McNulty is a secondgeneration retired firefighter who has a passion for teaching youths the art of firefighting. With his wife Theresa, a 911 dispatcher, they have been working with Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts of America in teaching young people how to be safe in case of an emergency. At Farmington Dew Days, the McNultys will hold demonstrations with fire engines. He’ll also have some of the fire equipment he’s collected over the years, including an engine McNulty purchased from St. Anthony Village, where he started firefighting in 1978 and where his father started in 1956.

Prime breaks ground on new facility in Eagan Prime Therapeutics, a pharmacy benefit manager serving 17 Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans nationally, broke ground on its new operations facility in Eagan on June 5. The 400,000-squarefoot facility will sit on approximately 40 acres in an office park south of Interstate 494 and east of Dodd Road in Eagan – adjacent to the new Minnesota Vikings corporate headquarters. It will be home to Prime’s IT and operations teams and will be flexible enough to accommodate Prime staff from four existing locations while also allowing for future growth. Currently, Prime employs more than 3,600 employees with more than 2,000 in Minnesota. Prime will retain its Bloomington,

Minn., office. Approximately 75 people attended the groundbreaking ceremony. Representatives included leadership from Prime, United Properties, construction contractor RJ Ryan, commercial real estate advisor JLL, architectural firm HGA, plus staff and elected officials from the city of Eagan, and other organizations that have helped along the way such as Greater MSP and Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (MN Deed). The project will be completed in two phases with the first phase to be completed and ready for occupancy by late 2018. The second phase is expected to be completed early 2020.

Opinion Lack of trust, respect led to state constitutional crisis Regardless of our differing political views, all Minnesotans should be unhappy with the final result of this year’s session of the Minnesota Legislature. For a time, we thought a “C” grade would be appropriate. That would be a “C” for “Compromise,” because both DFL Gov. Mark Dayton and the Republican-controlled Legislature had to give ground on numerous issues to get a deal done. Then, in the final hours, the GOP inserted language in a budget bill that would have defunded the state Department of Revenue if the governor did not sign the tax relief bill passed by the Legislature. The governor eventually signed the tax bill after first saying he would allow it to become law without his signature, but then he cast a line-item veto of all funding for the Legislature in the next two years, creating an instant constitutional crisis. In less than a week, their grade dropped from a “C” to an “F.” Our view is that Dayton wanted to avoid a government shutdown, which will come July 1. He had already forced special sessions and helped create one shutdown in the past. He didn’t want another. And with a $1.6 billion budget surplus, no need existed to cause one. The governor and legislative leaders negotiated as hard as they could and came up with compromises. No one was happy, but all could walk away saying

ECM Editorial that they had done their best. But DFL interest groups began protesting that the governor had caved, giving away too much. A year ago, the governor vetoed a tax relief bill because of a typographical error. To ensure that he would not find another reason to veto their tax relief this year, the GOP inserted language that would have defunded the Department of Revenue. So, in a tit for tat, the governor defunded the Legislature, but said that he would call them back into special session (which only he can do), if they agree to five additional concessions: eliminate tobacco tax breaks, cancel a $1 million increase in the estate tax exclusion, remove a freeze on the state’s (not to be confused with local governments’) commercial-industrial property taxes, remove language in the Real ID bill prohibiting illegal immigrants from obtaining drivers licenses, and renegotiate changes in teacher licensure provisions. The global agreements, reached in closed-door horse-trading, gave nobody what they wanted but everybody got something. The GOP may not have been up front about the language defunding the Revenue Department (indeed, some of the GOP’s own legislators said they

did not know it was in the bill), but since the governor signed the tax relief bill, no damage to the overall agreement resulted — until Dayton demanded to go back to the bargaining table. Three points need to be made about this: First, this is what happens when partisanship is put in front of sound public policy. By forcing Dayton to sign the tax relief bill with the threat of defunding an entire department, the Republicans demonstrated no trust. But just as they disrespected the governor and the principles on which he was elected and for which he was fighting, what does it say about the governor when he demanded that they put their own pay and that of their staffs ahead of the principles on which they were elected and for which they fought? Second, last-minute brinkmanship is a negotiating tactic designed to bring extra concessions. However, it only works when an adequate amount of respect and trust exists between the two sides. By their own actions, state leaders have shown how lacking those two assets are. The Legislature needs to recognize this changed reality and either amend its rules or, to include limits on the governor as well, a constitutional amendment. It’s no longer acceptable to pass bills that legislators and the governor’s staff haven’t had time to read, let alone understand. The term “all-nighter” should only

apply to high school prom goers or college freshmen preparing for finals, not to the elected leaders of 5.5 million Minnesotans. Third, some will argue that the cause is divided government in and of itself. How much easier things would be if we could dismiss out of hand those with whom we disagree? However, the electorate in aggregate has voted for divided government. Wise leaders would accept that reality and make do. Unfortunately, our leaders have disrespected the voters, the intent of state government and each other. Go to court, if you must, to settle your differences, but given that six of the nine justices were appointed by Dayton, don’t expect anybody’s credibility to skyrocket as a result. The best outcome would be for Dayton to call a special session, the Republicans to withdraw the language defunding the Revenue Department and Dayton to refund the Legislature. Then they both should say they’re sorry to each other and to the state. The governor should then tell his unhappy supporters that he did the best he could and sign the bill with no other changes. Anything less would cast doubt on this state’s ability to govern itself. This is an opinion of the ECM Publishers Editorial Board.

Sandbagging and other summer service projects by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Sandbagging on the St. Croix River is one of our family’s favorite memories. We joined with hundreds of others some years ago to help Afton, Minnesota, fend off the rising river waters. Our youngsters and I look back on the day as a time when we really made a difference and had fun doing so. That’s a combination of benefits that families might consider for the summer. What I’m urging in this column is that families, with their youngsters, make service to others part of their summer. Lugging sandbags was hard but satisfying work. There were different tasks for different people, including filling bags with sand, wheeling the bags to the dike that some of us were building, and actually putting the sandbags in place. So it was ideal for people of different ages and strengths. The sandbagging was an unexpected

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Joe Nathan part of a service day that our synagogue had organized. Other projects had been planned, but first thing that morning, some of us heard a plea for help on the radio. We decided to add sandbagging as an option. When a group of about 20 people arrived at the designated spot in Afton, a person who met us wondered where we had come from. When we explained, the Afton resident’s response was, “Thank God you’re here.” The town was desperate for help. While some families were in Afton, others helped Habitat for Humanity build a house, some staffed a food kitchen for homeless people, and others deliv-

ered food and toys that had been previously collected to donate to a shelter for women and children. In each case, the partner organization briefly explained to the participating youngsters what the problem was that they were helping to solve and what specifically they would be doing to make a difference. It was a long-remembered, very satisfying day where families worked together to serve others. Another day, earlier this year, brought thousands of Minnesotans together to share their concerns about the country’s direction. We participated, along with some of our children and grandchildren. Many people brought youngsters, some of whom had painted colorful, creative signs. But I want to be clear: I am saying a protest or demonstration, whether liberal or conservative, can be a very valuable experience for youngsters. Preparing them for the experience – and discussing how you’ll deal with critics and police directions – are important before taking

youngsters to any march or rally. From sandbagging to demonstrating, from helping build a house to feeding the hungry, there are countless ways to involve youngsters in helping others. Still looking for more examples of what you and your youngsters might do? The website www.whatkidscando. org offers hundreds of service learning projects that young people have carried out. One of the most important things parents and grandparents can do is model behavior we favor. Helping others makes young people feel productive and proud. Doing this as a family reminds young people that service and working for a better world are important family values.

Letters Respectful discussions needed To the editor: Unwittingly, Kathy Griffin’s grotesque photos this past week proved we still have boundaries for acceptable behavior even in an era of increasingly bitter political discourse. However, what should give us pause is that, amid nearly weekly outbreaks of politically motivated violence on our streets, it was her offensive act that caused us all recoil in horror. Since the election, we’ve witnesses a systematic campaign to dehumanize and delegitimize not just our president, but everyone who dares question left-wing orthodoxy. Griffin’s crass stunt joins ongoing efforts to shout down, beat down and silence people exercising their First Amendment rights on college campuses and elsewhere. It has to stop. Now.

The mid-term elections are over a year away. Already, likely DFL candidates, like Angie Craig are rallying their troops with vague, imaginary bogeymen, fueling unjustified resentment and a victim hood mentality she believes will help her political goals. The cynical aim of Craig and those who share her twisted ideas is to pit people against one another, to hem in dissenters among those who belong to their conjured victim groups, and to railroad better understanding among family members as well as neighbors. Indeed, this “us vs. them” mindset necessitates hostility. It’s past time to reject this tired, toxic template. Start by getting to know your neighbors a little better, and learn how to have a positive, respectful discussions, even about politics. Take the time to understand and to explain without insults. Who knows, you might learn something that changes

your point of view too. KYLE CHRISTENSEN Lakeville

Help save the bees To the editor: We are fourth-graders at Impact Academy. We are doing a service learning project on pollinators. We learned that pollinators are disappearing and wanted to help. Here are some ways we found to help. First, if we want to save bees we should not kill them if we see them. Another way to help is to plant more flowers. Some favorite flowers that bees like are: purple coneflower, yarrow, sunflower, horsemint, prairie blazing star, Joe-Pye weeds, goldenrods, etc. Second we should not put pesticide on flowers so bees don’t die. We also have to take down the bee traps from our garden to help bees.

Without bees we would not have fruit. Not even chocolate. So we have to save bees because we will have less choices of fruit and candy and much more. We hope these facts help inform you about the importance of bees. Did you know the best way to take out a bee stinger is to scrape it out instead to pull it out. Did you know that if a bee stings you the bee dies. Did you know that bee venom has been used in research to block cancer cells from spreading to other cells. Did you know in summer a worker bee lives about 40 days and a queen bee can live up to 5 years. We hope that you can do these things to help increase the bee population.

the DFL and the left-wing elites think they are the only ones competent to be able decide what is best for our family’s lives. Mr. Wershow doesn’t know that the GOP will soon correct these misconceptions. When current DNC chairman Tom Perez ran for the chair position he promised to fight for abortion rights. On April 21, 2017, he stated that all liberals running for office must be pro-abortion and implied that the DNC could not support those candidates who were not. Now, I am wondering if Mr. Wershow believes that the DFL believes that too. Incidentally, the headline for the letter was, “Bringing people together.” That was part of Sen. Norm Coleman’s re-election campaign slogan in 2008. MONSE MARCIAL- Good slogans never die.

To the editor: The May 26 letter by Aaron Wershow is pure conjecture. Interestingly how Mr. Wershow claims his pie-in-the-sky beliefs are the same as those of the DFL. What causes me concern is how the arrogant, wise and virtuous

man activity on climate change. I have difficulty understanding why there is so much opposition among Trump supporters. After all, our economy has already embraced renewable energy and corporate America has signed up to make it all permanent. The goals of the Paris agreement are being implemented. China is now the world leader in installed capacity for wind and solar. The U.S. is losing a competitive edge that should have been a no-brainer. The idea of going back to expanding the use of coal and oil no longer makes sense from an economic perspective. Yes, it is important to find new jobs for that industry, but renewables are more than capable of filling that void. If Trump had really studied the energy market as it stands now and how its future looks, then he would be embracing the Paris Accords and demanding that Americans step up and lead the world in this regard — as we should. But our president chose the backwards path and America will have to deal with that. Fortunately, state and city governments have taken up the banner in a very big way. But we still have a lot of work ahead of us.

To the editor: President Donald Trump has pulled the U.S. out of the Paris Accords.

Genuine, critical discussion sought To the editor: The League of Women Voters for Dakota County held a health care forum on June 1 titled “The State of Health Care: Successes and Challenges.� LWV purports to be a “nonpartisan political organization� that “works to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influences public policy through education and advocacy.� I went to the event with an open mind to learn about a variety of potential health care/ insurance legislation/solutions. However, I was very disappointed with the panelists and the information they presented. Only a single solution was presented by the panelists: single payer universal health care and it was not adequately scrutinized. The sole panelist who offered concerns regarding single payer universal health care was Scott Keefer. He respectfully challenged some generally held beliefs about private health insurance companies and the challenges Obamacare presented to the

Voters will be asked Nov. 7 to renew a 10-year $73 million levy at today’s cost of $82 million; the board is also considering seeking $21 million over 10 years.

industry. However, the challenges were casually dismissed and the panel was still not provoked to discuss alternative solutions (e.g., non-single payer, open market based, alternative changes to Obamacare, etc.) I wrote several questions that asked about the difference between health care and health insurance and the economic and governmental forces that impact cost, access, and quality in the health care industry. However, the moderator did not ask any of these questions; the sole solution of single payer universal health care continued to be promoted with uncritical acceptance. The event was supposed to be about educating the public, but little education was offered. It was essentially a rallying cry for universal health care. I hope that future LWV events will offer a genuine, critical discussion containing multiple solutions and points of view.

It is our Constitution that restricts the power of the federal government and assures certain liberties for all citizens. And the only legitimate authority must be derived from us, the citizens. This is the criteria in which our congressman, Jason Lewis, must be judged. Some of the major bills that Lewis voted on include the Defense Accountability Act, the Juvenile Justice Reform Act, the congressional disapproval resolution, and the Consolidated Appropriation Act. On all of these major bills, Lewis rates an A. Not to be overlooked are the many bills that Lewis wrote and sponsored that again had the aim of enhancing our liberty by fidelity to our Constitution.

To the editor: The good news about solving the greenhouse gas problem is that sustainability creates jobs and saves money. The fastest growing occupation in the period 201424 is “wind turbine service technician,� at a rate two and a half times the next fastest career, with median pay of $52,260 per year. Solar electric installations are good work for electricians and welders. Many other inventions and retrofitting work are needed. There is great potential for innovative companies to create many new jobs and wealth. Money saved with efficiency improvements is money freed for other uses. It’s like getting a raise. The bad news is that the president hasn’t gotten the memo. His decision to pull out of the Paris Accord puts the U.S. in opposition to nearly every other country in the world (and the Pope). This doesn’t help American business abroad, but helps fossilfuel companies maintain their concentrated wealth. The rest of us are being taken out of the game. The science is clear, but a minority of people dismiss it because they do not want government regulations to limit personal freedoms. But regulations also prevent individual freedoms from causing harm to others. With no regulations, we’d have to fight for everything: safe water and food, safe travel, and the protection

To the editor: Just because the president has announced intent to withdraw from Paris Accord doesn’t mean we as a nation must stop our efforts to reduce emissions. You don’t need the government’s approval to drive less or to install solar shingles on your house. State and local governments do not need federal approval to erect windmills or solar panel farms. Utilities don’t need government approval to increase the share of power which comes from renewable sources. Want to know what you can do and which actions are most effective? An impressive team has produced the book “Drawdown: The Most Comprehensive Plan Ever Proposed to Reverse Global Warming,� and a very effective website with 100 suggestions for reversing global warming and those 100 actions are explained and ranked. When push comes to shove, reversing global warming will require effective actions from each of us. Governments have a role to play, but we don’t need government to act before we do.

BEVERLEY ORR President Last Hope

To the editor: The June 1 issue of the Dakota County Tribune had a front page article on “Farmington animal shelter is in Top 20.� It was a nice well written article, but I would like to provide some additional information that is important to the operation of Last Hope animal rescue of Farmington. Proper credit was given to Petco stores in Apple Valley and Burnsville for hosting pet adoptions for Last Hope. Another important outlet for our animal adoptions is the new Petsmart store in northeast Lakeville at Pilot Knob Road and 160th Street adjacent to the Hy-Vee Store. We have pet adoptions from that Petsmart store every Saturday 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. This Petsmart also keeps several cats for adoption in their store at all times. Another place to adopt a Last Hope cat is at Fluegel’s Farm, Garden and Pet on Highway 3 in downtown Rose- VICI OSHIRO mount. They keep several Burnsville of our cats at their store at all times for adoption.

Fluegel’s personnel provide housing, food, water for these cats kept in their store and keep their living quarters clean and complete all of the necessary paperwork to complete adoption of one of these cats. I thank Petsmart, Petco and Fluegel’s for serving as adoption outlets for our cats and dogs. We could not be successful without them.

of personal property. Climate change is one way that our actions hurt others throughout the globe. Which brings me to faith. I am a Christian, so I have an imperative to be a good steward of God’s creation that sustains all life. I’m reminded of the parable of the good Samaritan. There are a priest and a Levite in the story who pass by the victim because they had important work to do, but Jesus taught a different message. Most faiths include stewardship imperatives. Let’s focus on that and work together to create a sustainable life for all future generations.

levy renewal and an additional $2.1 million annually. Michael Baumann, District 194 executive director of business services, noted renewing the operating levy will not increase taxes, and the preliminary estimate showed the district portion of property taxes would decrease a few dollars if voters just passed the renewal levy. District 194 has issued similar surveys for the past several years prior to holding a levy referendum election and voters have approved since 2013 the last two requests that included three referenda totaling around $90 million over 10 years.

Caponi Art Park continues Multiple disabilities are no barrier for Amazing Jeffo to evolve in Eagan Park celebrating 25 years Sunday by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The Caponi Art Park is throwing itself a 25th birthday bash Sunday. Cheryl Caponi, the park’s executive director and co-founder, hopes to make it a celebration where they can say thank you. “The park began because my late husband had a vision of what the park could be and what the community would need when it’s a mature city,� Caponi said. “He did an awful lot, but it took other people to get to where we are, and for us to get to another 25 years, we’re going to need them.� Park founder Anthony Caponi created Caponi Art Park as an outdoor laboratory to teach and demonstrate how creativity is an essential part of daily living. The park opened to the public in 1987 and became a nonprofit in 1992, as it began to offer arts and education programming. The 25th Birthday Bash is scheduled for 3-5 p.m. June 11 at 1220 Diffley Road, Eagan. Cheryl Caponi said the event will be more like an open house and it will include family activities, art demonstrations, cake and tours of the park. It will also serve as a classroom dedication ceremony. The organization was able to raise funds to build a permanent structure for classes, tours and other art activities over the past year. Caponi said they’ll need the surrounding community to help with more ideas and programming to get to 50 years. “We want this to be a regional resource,� Caponi said. “If we’re not doing things the people in the immediate area are interested in, we need to know.� With hopes of lasting another 25 years and continuing to grow, Caponi Art Park made a few changes for its summer programming.

makes it debut on Friday this year. It’s scheduled for 5:30-8:30 p.m. July 14, with a performance by the Rosemount band Sawtooth Brothers The cost for a presale ticket is $10. A single admission at the door is $12. Caponi said this could be the beginning for more Friday evening performances. It’s scheduled around a traditional happy hour, so Caponi said she hopes it attracts those who live in the area along with people who commute to Eagan to work. “We’re trying to tap into that audience,� Caponi said “We took note that there’s a lot of people who work in Eagan, but live somewhere else.� Another new series is coming to the park, as well, titled CAP Presents, which will offer more entertainment options that will “hopefully attract new people,� Caponi said. Beer is provided by Urban Growler Brewing Company and food by New Bohemia Wurst + BierHaus. A new CAP Presents series will also kick off this summer. It features performances brought in from other organizations. “Going forward, there will be more performances we’ll be hosting rather than presenting,� Caponi said. The schedule includes “An Evening with Mark Twain� at 6:30 p.m. July 23; “Lion King Junior� at 6:30 p.m. Aug. 12 and 13; and “Philemon and Baucis – A Picnic Operetta� at 6:30 p.m. Aug. 27. The Mark Twain performance will be led by Michael Bateson who performs as Mark Twain, offering an interactive experience with one of America’s and the world’s best-known humorists and authors. The performance of “Lion King Junior� will be a two-act musical adapted from the Disney version. Mixed Precipitation will perform a new adaptation of Joseph Haydn’s rarely performed marionette opera, “Philemon and Baucis.�

CAP Presents is meant to help fill a gap in the regular Summer Performance Series, which is down from six to three events this year. The Dakota Valley Summer Pops Orchestra is July 9; Kalpulli Ketzal Coatlicue & Chinelos San Pablo Apostol are Aug. 6; and Kevin Kling and Simone Perrin are Aug. 20. All performances are from 6:30-7:30 p.m. and there will be a cost at $5 per person to attend. Caponi Art Parks’ funding situation changed, Caponi said. The organization is not getting the foundation and grant funds they’ve relied upon in the past, and all these events cost money. “Charging money is new for us, but it’s a reality,� Caponi said. “Artists need to be paid just like everybody else.� Caponi Art Park will also have another metal casting series called Casting for Community in July. It was held last fall and Caponi said interest was high. “We’re opening up for the public so they can come to the park and make molds and watch them be cast,� Caponi said. “We want to be a place where people can not only experience art, see performances, they can be involved in making art.� Workshops are scheduled for 10 a.m. July 15 and at 6 p.m. July 19 with a community iron pour at noon July 22. More information and tickets can be found at www.caponiartpark.org. Free puppet workshops and performances are scheduled for 10:30-11:30 a.m. June 17, July 7 and July 28.

Sports And they’re back: Panthers return to state tourney North rallies to win its final 3 section games by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Lakeville North has kept its cool in situations that might cause other teams to overheat, and it helped send the Panthers back to the state baseball tournament. Three times in the Class 3A, Section 1 playoffs, the Panthers trailed in the late innings. They rallied to win all three times, including Tuesday’s 5-4 victory over New Prague at Dundas Memorial Park to wrap up the section championship. The Panthers (19-5) earned their fifth consecutive trip to the state tournament and will play in the Class 4A quarterfinals Thursday, June 15, at CHS Field in St. Paul. North’s 3-2 victory over Farmington on Saturday put it in the finals, where it had two opportunities to win one game to advance to state. North, undefeated in the double-elimination tournament, needed just the first chance. “We’re into it at the start, but (when trailing)

Michael Dooney puts the ball in play for Lakeville North, which is going to the state baseball tournament for the fifth consecutive year. we’re even more into it because we like a challenge,” said Panthers catcher Nick Juaire, whose two-out single in the sixth inning started a two-run rally against Farmington. “This team is close. We just pick each other up.” Ryan Bastyr’s sacrifice fly in the bottom of the seventh scored pinchrunner Zach Breeden with the deciding run against New Prague. North trailed 4-1 after 4 1/2 innings but tied the game with a threerun fifth. Nick Spitt had a

two-run single during the rally. Collin Denk worked the final three innings and was the winning pitcher. On Saturday, the Panthers trailed Farmington 2-1 in the sixth inning. After Juaire reached base, Spitt followed with a double off the left-field fence that allowed Juaire to score the tying run. Two innings earlier, Juaire had tried to score on a Spitt double, but an on-target Farmington relay cut him down at the plate. Bastyr poked a sin-

gle into center field that brought in Spitt with the go-ahead run. Denk, who went to the mound in the sixth inning to replace starter Luke DeGrammont (who was taken out because of pitch count considerations) shut down the Tigers in the seventh. In their previous section tournament game, the Panthers trailed Rochester Mayo 2-1 in the bottom of the seventh inning before hitting two home runs – including a game-deciding grand slam by Michael Dooney – to win 6-2. North coach Tony Market emphasized the importance of being “on edge” during games. “You have to have fun, but you also have to get right to the point where you’re on the verge of tears, of you’re elated,” he said. “Somewhere in there is the edge we’re looking for people to be on. “So much of the game the players have to work on physically through the off-season, but so much is also played mentally.” Spitt, the Panthers’ cleanup hitter, was 3-for-3 with one run batted in and two runs scored against Farmington. Tyler Fietek drove in Spitt with a sacrifice fly in the second in-

ning. But Farmington took a 2-1 lead in the fourth inning when Brady Bean’s fly ball dropped near the right-field line, scoring two runs. The Tigers put the game in the hands of their top pitcher, senior Mitchell Fox, who kept North off-balance until the sixth. “He pitches backward a lot,” Juaire said, meaning Fox threw breaking pitches in counts where hitters might expect fastballs, and vice-versa. “I don’t know if he does that normally, but he’s done that against us. We’ve struggled a little bit with guys who have a slow curveball. But when we started timing that up, things started happening.” DeGrammont, a senior left-hander, held Farmington to three hits and one earned run over 5 1/3 innings before being removed because he was close to 75 pitches. If he exceeded 75 he would not have been eligible to pitch Tuesday under Minnesota State High School League pitch count regulations. “He didn’t like that,” Market said with a wry smile. “We told him it was his game, but at the same time when you’re down 2-1 you have to plan ahead a

little bit. We sat him down and he said, ‘We’re going to win the game, so it’s not going to matter,’ and I’m like, ‘Either way, it might be nice to have you on Tuesday.’ ” DeGrammont wasn’t used in the first game but would have been available for a second game had New Prague won the first. But the Panthers undoubtedly are happy with the way things worked out. The late-game tension might be tough on North fans, but Market said he wants his players to look at it as fun. “We’re coming off a dramatic win just to get to this position and lo and behold, we’re in this position again,” the coach said. “Some of the same people are involved, so it’s pretty fun to watch.” It also kept North on pace toward the players’ ultimate goal. “We expect ourselves to win. We have our eyes on Target Field,” Juaire said, referring to the site of the Class 4A state championship game. “From Day 1, that’s been our goal.” Contact Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecminc.com.

Cougars repeat as section boys golf champions Two North girls qualify individually for state tourney by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Lakeville South earned another shot at a boys golf state championship after surviving the weather and the competition at the Class 3A, Section 1 tournament last week in Lake City. Thunderstorms rolled through the Jewel Golf Club on Saturday, cutting the final round of the Section 1 tourney to nine holes. That made it tougher on the teams chasing Lakeville South, which held a nine-stroke lead after the first round June 1. Lakeville North made a run the second day but finished three strokes behind Lakeville South, which qualified for the state Class 3A tourney for the third consecutive year. The Cougars were third in 2015 and runners-up in 2016. South was led by ninth-

grader Gavin Cronkhite, who shot 73-40–113 to tie for fourth place. Tanner Sperling tied for the best score Saturday – a 35 over nine holes – and finished tied for sixth at 114. Brandon Sperling, William Moore, Griffin Norcia and John Langlois also will play for North in the Class 3A tournament. Boys tee times start at 7:30 a.m. Tuesday, June 13, and Wednesday, June 14, at Bunker Hills in Coon Rapids. Lakeville North not only missed a spot in the state team competition by just three strokes, two of its players were denied individual spots in the state tourney in deflating fashion. Max McCarty and Ryan Oberg were part of a tie for sixth place with 27-hole scores of 114. That put them in a threeway playoff with Rochester John Marshall eighthgrader Nathan Meyer for one state tournament spot, which Meyer earned by making birdie on the fourth extra hole. Farmington qualified for the second day of the Section 1 boys tourney and finished fifth. The Ti-

gers’ Cade Bowe led them in the first round with a 79. Red Wing completed a runaway with the Class 3A, Section 1 girls tournament Monday at Cannon Golf Club in Cannon Falls. The Wingers, first in the Minnesota Golf Association all-class state rankings, had a tworound total of 632 and came in 51 strokes ahead of second-place Lakeville North, the MGA’s fifthranked team. Two Lakeville North players qualified individually for state. Junior Megan Welch, who tied for second in the 2016 Class 3A tourney, was third in Section 1 with a 149 total. Welch’s sister Emma, an eighth-grader, finished eighth with 173 and grabbed the last available qualifying spot. The Welches will play in the Class 3A girls tourney June 13-14 at Bunker Hills, with tee times starting at 7:30 a.m. each day. Lakeville South finished sixth in the Section 1 girls tourney with a 732 total.

Section team titles mean plenty South boys repeat in 1AA track meet by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The main purpose of section track and field meets is for teams to get as many people to the state meet as possible, in as many events as possible. But there still are team trophies awarded, and that meant something to local teams that won them last week. “We have some girls who are going on to the state meet this weekend, but for a lot of them the section meet was their last meet of the season,” said Rosemount girls coach Sara Hateli, whose team won the Section 3AA championship at Concordia University in St. Paul. “It was a great way for them to end their season, and as a coach it was good to see them get rewarded for the work they put in.” The Irish repeated as Section 3AA champions

in a season in which they qualified for the state True Team finals for the first time in 30 years and finished third in the South Suburban Conference. They have five individual qualifiers for the state meet in seven events, including standouts such as Alexys Berger and Shae Buchman, who could contend for first-place medals this weekend at Hamline University. Lakeville South’s boys and Farmington’s girls won Section 1AA team championships Saturday at Lakeville South High School. For the South boys, who successfully defended their team title, “it means a lot,” coach Jon Gilmer said. “We’ve had a good season, taking second in the conference and fourth at True Team state. But it’s great to win a meet like that, and we got a lot of kids into the state meet, so we accomplished a lot of what we set out to do.” Lakeville South came in about 35 points ahead of second-place Lakeville

North at the Section 1AA boys meet. In the girls competition, Farmington edged South Suburban Conference champion Lakeville South by two points. The Tiger girls won five events, including a sweep of the 1,600and 3,200-meter races by Anna Fenske, the reigning state Class AA cross country champion. The challenge now is getting the state qualifiers to peak at the state meet. That’s no easy task under ordinary circumstances, but this week the circumstances are anything but ordinary as most schools have their graduation ceremonies. Lakeville South seniors will attend their graduation ceremony at 8 p.m. Thursday in downtown Minneapolis. That means the seniors that have qualified for the track meet won’t get home until after midnight – factoring in a stop at the all-night senior party – and have to be at Hamline University on Friday morning for the See TRACK, 11A

Robby Gale scored five goals, including the game-winner in overtime, in Lakeville North’s 1514 victory over Lakeville South in the Section 1 boys soccer championship game Tuesday night. The Panthers, state runners-up in 2016, qualified for the tournament for the fourth year in a row. Lakeville North (9-7) will play a quarterfinal game June 13 at Chanhassen High School. The section championship game was close throughout. Lakeville North led 8-6 at halftime, but South midfielder David Byers scored his fourth goal of the game just eight seconds into the third quarter. The ebb and flow continued. South led 12-11 after the third, but North scored three consecutive goals to lead 14-12 with less than six minutes remaining. South then scored the final two goals of the period to force the game into overtime. Lakeville South (7-9)

play in the state quarterfinals Tuesday, June 13, at Minnetonka High School. The time and opponents had not been announced as Sun Thisweek presstime. Tigers senior Kamryn Corraro had a hand in nine of the Tigers’ 10 goals Tuesday, scoring eight and assisting on one. One of her goals came seconds before the halftime buzzer, giving Farmington a shot of energy as it went to the break. She also scored twice in the final five minutes, breaking an 8-8 tie. Ashley Steffes had a goal and three assists for the Tigers. Lavictoire said senior Alexis Stanley was key in the draw circle, recovering numerous ground balls. Goals by Lakeville South’s Jenna Hayes and Abby Schaefer tied the game 7-7 and 8-8. The score remained at 8-8 for more than nine minutes before Corraro scored to put Farmington ahead to stay. Lakeville South, the three-time defending section champion, finished 10-6.

It’s safe to say Farmington isn’t indifferent about its first section girls lacrosse championship. Shortly after the Tigers defeated Lakeville South 10-8 in the Section 1 final Tuesday night at Tiger Stadium, coach Stephanie Lavictoire took the trophy, held it in front of the Farmington fans and shouted, “This is for you!” It also was for the Farmington players, who have been chasing Lakeville South in the section playoffs for a long time. The Cougars defeated the Tigers in the playoffs four years in a row, including the last three Section 1 championship games. “These kids have been playing together for six or seven years, so eventually it was going to happen,” Lavictoire said. “They were hungry. They thought they really needed to push this year, put their foot on the gas, and they did it. “All the factors kind of lined up, and we punched Contact Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecmour ticket, finally.” Farmington (14-2) will inc.com.

TRUCKS, from 1A with less-popular food trucks which will not have an established following to create a buzz and build interest to draw more people and increase business in downtown Lakeville. “If you get food trucks down here that nobody knows, it’s not benefiting downtown,” Erickson said. Council members have discussed and listened to debate about food trucks for months. While Erickson said food trucks downtown would light up social media and generate traffic to help all businesses downtown, neighboring restaurant owner Marty Richie expressed opposition to the proposal. Richie said the increased competition would detract customers from his Heavy Metal

LIQUOR, from 1A Also at the Heritage location, a fire truck will be on site for children to tour, and the city will give away free hot dogs and root beer as well as brats soaked in Templeton Whiskey for adults. Firefighters will also be on hand at the Heritage location to provide carryout for customers who donate to the equipment fund.

Grill restaurant and others downtown, slowing sales and ultimately shuttering the established businesses, leaving downtown empty. City Council members agreed to implement a “walk, not run” approach to test how allowing food trucks would work for all. Erickson said by the end, the restrictions slowed traction on the issue to a “crawl.” Richie, also a food truck owner, said he respects the City Council’s decision in passing the ordinance but agreed with Erickson’s assessment of how food truck operators would react to the ordinance. “I think the decision or the ordinance they put in is food-truck repellent,” Richie said. “I don’t think they’re going to get any food trucks to come in.” Richie said an ethical food truck business would

not operate in front of a brick-and-mortar restaurant on a regular basis and thereby “stealing their business.” He added people will not drive from Northeast Minneapolis to visit one food truck, but if the city allowed one huge rally, food truck fans would show up in droves and benefit all the downtown. “Make a huge event out of it,” Richie said. “Don’t just bring in one that’s going to drip business dry.” Richie said if the City Council really wanted to have food trucks operating in downtown Lakeville, it should have met with multiple food truck owners and learn how their businesses work. At the meeting, Council Member Luke Hellier said he talked to several food truck owners and all expressed the ability to meet the ordinance re-

quirements and were comfortable with the daily permit cost and no option for an annual permit. “I think we’ve got something that’s going to put us in the right direction, as I said, a jumpingoff point to see where we can go,” Hellier said. Council Member Brian Wheeler also owns a restaurant, Baldy’s BBQ, and operates a food truck of the same name. He told Sun Thisweek he plans to bring his truck downtown at some point. Council Member Bart Davis called the ordinance “a step forward.” “We’re making the initiative to see how it goes and we have the ability to go back in 2017 and make adjustments that may be deemed necessary,” Davis said. Erickson said they do not have any food trucks lined up to come down-

town, but they hope to bring in a truck to help them celebrate their oneyear anniversary July 29. He said he would have liked to see an option for an annual permit instead of a one-time permit that causes food truck vendors a lot more work and hassle. Erickson said he is happy they are going to be able to have food trucks, and he is hopeful that restrictions will ease as time goes on. His father, Chris Erickson, attended the council meeting and expressed his appreciation to the council for their deliberation. “I just hope that you will see and take note of the positive things that Angry Inch is doing to contribute to the welfare of this city and promote business,” he said. In an interview, Mayor Doug Anderson said he

They hope to raise over $10,000 for the water rescue equipment throughout the month. “Other locations will have the can koozies and the specialty items, but only the Heritage location will have the fire department kickoff,” Visnovec said. Minnesota is one of only about a dozen other states that banned Sunday liquor sales, although 3.2

beer has been available at convenience stores and various retailers, and wine could be purchased at a Minnesota farm winery. “The spirits section of it kind of got pushed aside,” Visnovec said. “They really didn’t have any avenue to sell their products. So they were a big component in getting this pushed through in the state of Minnesota.” She said the Distilled

Spirits Council has been working to open Sunday liquor sales across the United States, and many people have advocated for the sales to increase convenience. Visnovec said it has been proven in other states that opening Sundays will only increase sales by about 3 to 6 percent but add on about 10 percent costs in hours the stores are open.

“My job is to ensure that we remain in line as profitable as always,” Visnovec said. “If people don’t monitor it closely, it could end up creating losses.” She said she will monitor and make adjustments as possible. Sunday hours will be 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The city’s Heritage liquor store is located at 20164 Heritage Drive. Liquor stores will not

is pleased with how the council worked together to come up with a starting point. “We said we wanted to take baby steps and didn’t want to jump into this hook, line and sinker,” Anderson said. “Some council members actually did talk to other food truck owners, so I feel comfortable that I think we did some reasonable work. That doesn’t mean that some people won’t disagree with that, but I hope that, particularly Mr. Erickson, I hope that he can see a pathway that with some appropriate planning he can accomplish some things that he couldn’t accomplish before.” Contact Laura Adelmann at laura.adelmann@ecm-inc.com.

SUN THISWEEK - Lakeville June 9, 2017 17A

Thisweekend New leaders aim to drive new vision at the zoo The Minnesota Zoo and its nonprofit foundation recently announced the selection of three new leaders. The zoo’s foundation has hired Tony Grundhauser as executive director, and the state-run Apple Valley institution selected Dave Frazier as zoo deputy director and senior vice president for operations, and Michelle Geddes as senior director of marketing and communications. “I am excited to add such talented and experienced industry experts to our leadership team,� Zoo Director and President John Frawley said. “The role of zoos has never been more important as we work together around the world to help save wildlife. Therefore, it is imperative that we attract leaders in various fields to ensure our success. “These new leadership team members will create opportunities for our guests and people throughout Minnesota to experience emotional connections with wildlife and gain a greater appreciation for them. By delivering extraordinary guest experiences and increasing awareness of the growing challenges of wildlife survival, we hope to encourage all Minnesotans to become partners with

The Minnesota Zoo has a temporary exhibit this summer called Kangaroo Crossing.

Tony Michelle Grundhauser Geddes us to achieve our mission to ‘connect people, animals, and the natural world to save wildlife.’ � After a search led by executive recruitment

firm, CohenTaylor, Grundhauser succeeds Melissa Parker Lindsay who retired Dave in March Frazier after 11 years with the foundation. Grundhauser was most recently the vice president for institutional advancement at Ham-

line University. Prior to his nearly 13 years in higher education, he worked for The Nature Conservancy where he helped lead efforts in conservation, conservation science, land protection, and fundraising. “Tony is the perfect person for the job,� said Samantha Capen Muldoon, foundation board chair and a member of the search committee.

“He has outstanding fundraising, community relations, and event management skills, along with an extraordinary commitment to conservation.� He will lead efforts to secure annual operating, conservation, and capital funds. Over the past two years, the foundation raised more than $8 million. Frazier joined the zoo in February 2017, with

nearly 30 years of business and customer service experience in the amusement industry. He is the past vice president and general manager of Valleyfair Amusement Park in Shakopee, and the former general manager of Nickelodeon Universe at the Mall of America. At the zoo, Frazier manages the zoo’s day-today operations, including customer service, membership, volunteers, grounds, and food service.

Music highlights annual ArtBlast lineup in June Rosemount Area Arts Council event has 10 bands on the slate by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The city of Rosemount will be filled with music, art and laughter June 19-25 during the fourth annual ArtBlast. The weeklong celebration of all things artistic will take place at a variety of venues aiming to attract people who are interested in being spectators or participants. Each year since 2014, the Rosemount Area Arts Council has worked with community partners to stage a slate of events in an effort to exhibit the profound amount to artistic talent in the local area. Since the outset, the Bluegrass Americana Festival has been a featured event. It will be bookended by two other nights of music in Central Park by the decidedly different genres of rock and concert band. Variety has long been a goal of organizers who endeavor to give a little bit of something for everyone. Also on the slate are two nights of evening theatrical performances and a steel drum concert on another night. Familiar faces return to Bluegrass Americana Festival with Rosemount presences in two of the acts. Two Rosemount-raised brothers form half of Sawtooth Brothers, which released its debut album “One More Flight� last year. The band features two sets of brothers — Clint and Luke Birtzer, of Rosemount, and Ethan and Jesse Moravec, of Rochester — and combines traditional and contemporary bluegrass, classic country and gospel. Sawtooth Brothers perform originals along with covers of bluegrass standards and overlooked gems. Rosemount resident Craig Evans

plays hammer claw banjo in Eelpout Stringers, which play “old time� music defined as that dating back to the 1800s. The band says on its website: Think of music from the movie “O Brother, Where Art Thou?� They tend toward ballads, Civil Warera songs or square dance music. The two bands will share the stage from 5-9 p.m. Saturday, June 24, with the King Wilkie’s Dream and Roe Family Singers. King Wilkie’s Dream is a Twin Citiesbased band that plays bluegrass, blues, swing, Americana, country, tin pan alley, old time and just a little pop. The Roe Family Singers are a goodtime, old-time hillbilly band from Kirkwood Hollow, Minnesota. Led by wife and husband Kim Roe and Quillan Roe, the band blends characteristic old-time sound with rock and roll urgency and influence. More about the bands is at http://sawtoothbrothers.com, http://www.eelpoutstringers.com, http://www.kwdream. com, and http://www.roefamilysingers. com. Rosemount’s Guitar Shop owner Brad Wegner will take to the stage with Radio Active 7-9 p.m. Friday, June 23, at the Central Park Amphitheater. The band was started in 2014 with the idea of playing classic rock and country songs that aren’t typically covered. In addition to Wegner on rhythm guitar, the band includes Sydnee Lynne, vocals; Randy Biehn, vocals and drums; Mike Gustafson, lead guitar; Mike Siedow, bass; Michelle Aldrich, keyboard and vocals; and Bob Sturm, sound engineer. More is at www.rockradioactive.com. The 1st John Philip Sousa Memorial Band will be perform Sunday, June 25, at 7 p.m. The group was formed in 1970 by a group of graduating Edina Minnesota High School band members with the purchase of 50 used band uniforms and

$30 worth of marches. The band was brought into the sponsorship of the city of Edina Parks and Recreation in 1973 and has enjoyed their support up to the present time. The 45 band members come from throughout the Twin Cities area and rehearse once a week. Following a different concert band vein, the Rosemount Community Band is assembling the second version of the show called JazzBlast for 4-9 p.m. Saturday, June 17, at Central Park. The Community Band was assembled in September 2011 and includes 60 members of a variety of backgrounds and ages, but this performance includes three smaller combos: 651 Jazz, Twin Cities 7 and Acme Jazz. Admission is free, food and beverages will be available for purchase. The Minneapolis-based Pan-Handlers Steel Drum Band will bring a tropical sound to Central Park, starting at 7 p.m. Thursday, June 22. Band members use Trinidadian steel drums, a relatively new instrument which originated as nothing more than a series of notes shaped from the bottom of an old oil barrel, to play music that includes calypso, reggae, pop and classical selections. More information about the band is at http://www.pan-handlers.org.

Acting up Two theatrical and one very magical performance are on the ArtBlast slate June 20 and 21. The Amazing Jeffo, a blind magician, will perform on June 20 at Central Park (see sidebar), and he will be followed at 7:30 p.m. by the melodrama “Mine All Mine� written by Denise K. Buhr and staged by the RAAC Front Porch Players under the direction of Keith Reed. The melodrama will encourage audience participation to cheer on the hero and boo the villain. Groans, laughter and applause are all acceptable as the story of Trillby Sterling plays out.

In the story, Trillby is digging a water well to support her farming operation, but a stranger in town says he’s with the government and the land should be deeded to it. Other charismatic characters aim to help out Trillby along with another stranger who appears to look a lot like Trillby’s true love, Tom, to save her cows and the farm. RAAC’s other acting troupe, the Second Act Players, will stage five original one-act plays at 7 p.m. June 21 at the Steeple Center. The group planned to produce the best one or two plays from the five that were part of a script writing class, but organizers said they were all so good that each one will be part of show. The five plays include: “The Mating Game� by Susan Friedline — A take-off on the 1970s “Dating Game� with a twist. “The Reunion� by Anita Hoffman — Takes place in a small town in Minnesota, where the local school is commemorating its 100-year anniversary. Two people meet by chance in a nearby restaurant, and recognize each other from the past. “Roles� by John Dinan — Earnest Daughter brings Flawed Boyfriend back home to meet Protective Dad for the first time. The comedic but poignant conversation is driven by some recognizable cultural and generational tensions as the two males grapple for the fair maiden’s soul. “Karma� by Jean Crewson — Two strangers meet in a restaurant. They are waiting to be seated and as they talk, they come to realize they know each other. Differences arise as they talk. “Decisions� by Faye Heffele — A construction worker struggles to make a difficult decision, then must deal with the consequence of that decision. Art exhibits, demonstrations and workshops are planned, along with photo contests and a writing contest. More about all of those events is at http://www.rosemountarts.com
