Teacher of the year engages students with discussion, humor and storytelling

by Kristine Goodrich Editor Pass by John Taylor's classroom and there's a good chance you'll hear his students chuckling.

Colleagues of the Mahtomedi High School English teacher say Taylor has a gift for using humorous storytelling to engage his students.

“John uses humor as a part of his teaching. He is

a very funny man,” said guidance counselor John Akins, who nominated Taylor for the honor. “I am often in his class and he has the kids laughing about something. He has a gift of telling stories and the students love this.”

Fellow English teacher Jackie Halverson recalled one day hearing multiple bursts of laughter from Taylor’s classroom.

with John, but whatever was happening seemed bigger than usual,” Halverson said. “After class, I had to ask him what story he was telling or activity he was using. His response: 'We were learning about the parts of speech.

It's a roller coaster of thrills.' Very few teachers and students see grammar as a thrilling educational experience. I wanted to be a student in his classroom.”

Taylor's knack for storytelling is one of the reasons why his colleagues selected Taylor as the district's 2015-16 teacher of the year.

His top teacher duties commenced with a speech to his colleagues as they prepared for the start of the school year earlier this month. It's not the first time Taylor has spoken to a district audience. Seniors have, on three occasions, selected him to give their graduation ceremony address. That's one of two prior honors of which he said he's most proud, along with multiple past invites from seniors to attend the excellence event with them.

Taylor has taught English for 21 years, 16 of them in Mahtomedi.

After a year as a substitute teacher, he spent three years at the Hubert H. Humphrey Jobs Corps Center. At the St. Paul center he taught older teens

WHITE BEAR LAKE — The city adopted its 2015 preliminary tax levy and the news is not bad.

In fact, the median value home will have a slight tax decrease under the proposal. In 2015, the median-value home was $181,300 and was taxed $327 by the city. In 2016, the median value is $184,700 and the tax dropped to $323.

A review of property tax liabilities reveals that nearly all homeowners in the city will pay less property tax to fund city operations in 2016 than they did in 2007. Due to the city's fiscal policies and an increased tax base, homeowners will generally be paying between $45 to $85 or 10 to 20 percent less for city services than they did nine years ago.

The levy was set at $4.9 million, which is a 1.69 percent increase over last year, or $82,000.

City Manager Mark Sather told the City Council Sept.

8 that staff attempts to keep any increase in the tax levy in line with increases in residents' ability to pay.

A memo to council indicated the economy continues to expand while inflation remains below the Federal Reserve annual benchmark goal of 2 percent. Real estate values, it was noted, are steadily improving.

According to staff, the city's real estate valuation trends reveal the following changes from last year: • 52 percent of the city's housing stock increased in value between 0 to 10 percent.

• Residential valuation overall increased 3 percent.

• Apartment valuation increased 10 percent.

• Commercial valuation increased 2 percent.

• Overall market valuation continues to recover from the 2008 to 2010 period of declining or flat value.

• New construction permits for 2014 exceeded $25 million in valuation.

• The city expects to issue new construction permits during 2015 that will exceed $50 million in valuation.

• The city anticipates 2016 new construction permits could exceed $30 million in valuation.

• Modest growth in commercial property will result in a continuing "shifting" of the property tax liability from commercial property toward residential property. With residential valuations increasing, the taxation liability is "rebalancing."

Sather told the council the city's interest earnings have dropped significantly over the past seven years as the Federal Reserve has actively influenced rates. The

Thanks but no thanks to Mighty Ducks grant WHITE BEAR LAKE — The $200,000 Mighty Ducks grant awarded the city in 2014 for its aging ice arena has been "formally and respectfully" declined.

City Council agreed Sept. 8 to wait until next year to reapply for the matching grant. The money, awarded through the Minnesota Amateur Sports Association, is earmarked for rinks that need to replace obsolete R-22 refrigeration systems like the one used at the White Bear Lake Sports Center. Carbon emissions from production of R-22 are causing it to be phased out of production by 2020.

The award of the grant was conditioned on the city executing an acceptance agreement and performance contract. Work funded was to have been completed within 18 months of signing the agreement. The city asked for time to evaluate options for improving the coolant system and cost sharing, but was advised the time extension is about to end. That meant White Bear must accept the grant, requiring replacement of the refrigerant, or decline the grant.

"In terms of timing for this grant, we believe it best to decline the funding to put it back in the pool for the next round of grant applications, which we may or may not be prepared to apply for," said City Manager Mark Sather.

"We have been told there will be opportunities in 2016 and 2017 to apply."

Depending on which option is chosen, an upgrade to the refrigeration system is expected to cost at least $1.6 million. The city has yet to make a decision on whether it even will make the improvements.

Sale of water tower parcel cinches projects WHITE BEAR LAKE — The Tower Crossings project got a few more i's dotted and t's crossed last week.

City Council approved sale Sept. 8 of the 1.2 acres below the water tower on Centerville Road so developers can access both phases of the project; one being senior housing and two being retail.

The city-owned land, obtained years ago through eminent domain from Jarmila Lande, is selling for $245,000 to Division 25 LLC, the company building 112 apartments for seniors at 4650 Centerville Road. The development across from Cub Foods is considered mixed use since a 40,000-square-foot retail building is planned adjacent to the

high-density residential.

Traffic is expected to ramp up after Phase Two is completed, but not before. A detailed traffic study will be conducted once a tenant is identified, according to City Planner Anne Kane.

Access to the site will be aligned with the northern driveway of Cub Foods and be controlled via signal.

Owners of White Oak Plaza behind the McDonald's south of the project encouraged council to require the improved intersection and signal in Phase One instead of Phase Two. "Before we built our building, we thought the intersection at Meadowlands Drive was difficult," Stephen

Moriarty told council. He owns White Oak Development Company with brother John, which owns the building leased to Anytime Fitness.

"There is opportunity to solve the problem by developing the road now. It could be 10 years before Phase Two development comes in."

A spokesman for Division 25, John Johannsen, said a frontage road north to a signal would hinder their ability to attract a retailer since it would impact the site plan. He added that Division 25 is committed to finding a retailer (or two) and the tenant would be involved in the design of a road and parking lot.

"It's been two years since

the project was proposed," Johannsen said. "We closed before the zoning approval to show our commitment. We long ago recognized from the city that residential has to lead. That's what we did. We are doing good land planning in a nice trade area with wonderful demographics."

Traffic lights aren't easy to get installed, the developer continued. It will require traffic generation, which won't come until Phase Two. "We'll have to endure a little pain," he told council.

When asked if he was confident the company will attract a retailer(s) in the next 18 months, Johannsen said he was "reasonably confident."

Approval of the prelimi-

nary plat for the site and final plat for the first phase passed 4-1 with Councilwoman Renee Tessier opposed. She preferred the developer build a road in Phase One, believing it would improve safety for seniors to access area businesses.

The site plan includes removal of all existing trees and vegetation in Phase One. The developer is required to transplant and preserve about 27 white pines planted on the property in 2000. Kane noted that stability of the water tower is first and foremost the city's concern. There will also be 24/7 access provided to the tower.

New rules for city’s massage therapists WHITE BEAR LAKE — There are 24 businesses in the city offering massage therapy. Up to now, none have been regulated. In fact, Minnesota is one of only six states that do not have laws governing massage parlors, so it's up to individual cities to create their own laws.

White Bear Lake is among those jumping on the bandwagon to regulate the establishments.

Staff felt it prudent to get the ball rolling in July, noting in a memo to City Council an increase in metro massage parlors that offer illegal services under the guise of therapy.

At its Sept. 8 meeting, council approved language that businesses offering massage services carry a $1 million liability insurance policy and that its therapists be individually licensed. The police department will

be tasked with conducting criminal background checks on every masseuse and verifying credentials.

Therapists will also be required to have at least one of the following: certification from the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork; membership with the American Massage Therapy Association or Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals; or have completed 500 hours of study to obtain a certificate. Those who do not hold current licensure have four years to get the proper education.

An annual license will also be required, with the proposed fee $25.

The ordinance becomes effective Jan. 1, 2016.

Mayor Jo Emerson felt regulations were a way to make sure the massage business is lawful. "It protects those

operating a legitimate business from those that are not," she said.

Only one owner-operator had concerns with the licensure part of the draft ordinance. It was noted via email to the city that the owner of Yi Li Massage LLC received her training on the job. She purchased the business three years ago, locating in the city because she didn't need a license.

Councilman Bryan Belisle said he was wrestling with the requirements. "Should an exception be made if a business has been owned three years?" he asked, "or do we require the owner to go through the licensing requirements?"

City attorney Roger Jensen noted that the issue is equal protection.

"We could defend this," he said. "If the basis of the licensing requirement is to protect health, safety and welfare

of White Bear Lake citizens who use the services, the fact someone has been in business longer has nothing to do with protection."

Assistant City Manager Ellen Richter told council the city is trying to make sure service is provided appropriately and people are properly trained.

Of those who responded or attended a special meeting to discuss the ordinance, only one had concerns about educational requirements, Richter added. "All others had gone through training to meet or exceed what we're asking in the ordinance. They were quite comfortable with those provisions," she said.

10 Keys to Getting Ahead Financially 1. Get Paid What You’re Worth and Spend Less Than You Earn It sounds simplistic, but many people struggle with this first basic rule.

No matter how much or how little you’re paid, you’ll never get ahead if you spend more than you earn. Often it’s easier to spend less than it is to earn more, and a little cost-cutting effort in a number of areas can result in big savings. It doesn’t always have to involve making big sacrifices.

2. Stick to a Budget One of my favorite subjects: budgeting. It’s not a four-letter word. How can you know where your money is going if you don’t budget? How can you set spending and saving goals if you don’t know where your money is going?

3. Pay Off Credit Card Debt Credit card debt is the number one obstacle to getting ahead financially. Those little pieces of plastic are so easy to use, and it’s so easy to forget that it’s real money we’re dealing with when we whip them out to pay for a purchase, large or small. Despite our good resolves to pay the balance off quickly, the reality is that we often don’t, and end up paying far more for things than we would have paid if we had used cash.

We provide full service financial planning and investment advisory services specializing in personal planning, small business, non-profit and governmental employer groups.

4. Contribute to a Retirement Plan If your employer has a 401(k) plan and you don’t contribute to it, you’re walking away from one of the best deals out there. Ask your employer if they have a 401(k) plan (or similar plan), and sign up today. If you’re already contributing, try to increase your contribution. If your employer doesn’t offer a retirement plan, consider an IRA.

5. Have a Savings Plan You’ve heard it before: Pay yourself first! If you wait until you’ve met all your other financial obligations before seeing what’s left over for saving, chances are you’ll never have a healthy savings account or investments. Resolve to set aside a minimum of 5% to 10% of your salary for savings BEFORE you start paying your bills. Better yet, have money automatically deducted from your paycheck and deposited into a separate account.

6. Invest!

If you’re contributing to a retirement plan and a savings account and you can still manage to put some money into other investments, all the better.

7. Maximize Your Employment Benefits Employment benefits like a 401(k) plan, flexible spending accounts, medical and dental insurance, etc., are worth big bucks. Make sure you’re maximizing yours and taking advantage of the ones that can save you money by reducing taxes or out-of-pocket expenses.

8. Review Your Insurance Coverages Too many people are talked into paying too much for life and disability insurance, whether it’s by adding these coverages to car loans, buying whole-life insurance policies when termlife makes more sense, or buying life insurance when you have no dependents. On the other hand, it’s important that you have enough insurance to protect your dependents and your income in the case of death or disability.

9. Update Your Will 70% of Americans don’t have a will. If you have dependents, no matter how little or how much you own, you need a will. If your situation isn’t too complicated you can even do your own with software like WillMaker from Nolo Press. Protect your loved ones. Write a will.

10. Keep Good Records If you don’t keep good records, you’re probably not claiming all your allowable income tax deductions and credits. Set up a system now and use it all year. It’s much easier than scrambling to find everything at tax time, only to miss items that might have saved you money.

Opinion A Minnesota tradition THERE ARE VERY ABOUT THE few Minnesota State TOWN Fairs that I have missed from the time I was a toddler. Most enjoyable for Kathy and I is working at the Newspaper Museum, now for the third year, located in the front of the 4-H Building GENE JOHNSON on what used to be called Machinery Hill.

The Fair is known as the Minnesota Get-together, but it might be better named the Minnesota Eattogether. The variety of foods, on a stick or not, seems to be the biggest attraction for the 1.7 plus million people who attend annually.

This year we spent three half-day shifts explaining the 1930s hot metal process of producing a newspaper. People of all ages continue to be fascinated, and especially those who have had someone in the family working with hot type or today are on a newspaper or in a commercial printing plant.

Mark and Deb Erickson of Floral Drive in White Bear Lake came by to say hello. They have lived in White Bear Lake for 20 years and were complimentary of the museum.

Paul Chapin of Bald Eagle and his friend Carol Kepple of Albert Lea came by to say hello. Paul is a pilot for American Airlines, and president of USA Water Ski Foundation and Water Ski Hall of Fame.

They had a lot of questions about the old process of printing a newspaper.

Jeannie Inglehart stopped by to make newspaper hats out of newsprint. She loves to do this for their own parties and had this to say, “First Amendment rights are our primary concern. Thanks for the education. I moved to White Bear Lake in April.”

Dick and Sally Parenteau, our neighbors, came by the museum with two grandsons, Nick and Vinny.

Sometimes we have to be away from White Bear Lake to greet neighbors.

Mary Pat Laboda and Bob Hogoboom from Stillwater came by to say hello. Bob grew up in White Bear Lake and was a ’66 graduate.

Two gentlemen came by, Bill and John, but I missed their last names. Bill especially wanted to say thank you for sending the White Bear Press while he served in Vietnam from 1969 through 1970.

Another fellow by the name of John came by to say thank you to the new owner of the apartments on the northwest corner of County Road E and Bellaire Avenue. Now that they are cleaned up, there are far fewer problems in the neighborhood and fewer police cars.

Bob and Joy Wilson of Lino Lakes have purchased a home on Cook Street in White Bear Lake and are currently fixing it up so they can move in.

Jim and Kay Anderson from Marine on St. Croix came by to say hello. Kay was a reporter for the Country Messenger in Scandia from 1974 to 1977.

They live next door to mutual friends, the Chuck Arnesons.

Dean and Mary Shawbold stopped in to say hello.

Dean and I served on the White Bear Lake Area Educational Foundation board together. It’s also a reminder of the fall fundraiser for the Foundation on October 23rd at the White Bear Yacht Club.

Mahtomedi schools seek to engage, challenge and inspire In February, the Mahtomedi School Board embarked on a strategic planning process to create a framework and roadmap for where we want to be in the next three to five years. Over the course of four months, the board hosted seven focus groups, designed an electronic survey to gather stakeholder feedback, and invited community members — including teachers, administrators, parents, and students — to examine the district’s mission, vision, and belief statements. These are the words that frame the district’s approach to educating students and engaging the community.

In August, the school board announced that Mahtomedi Public Schools’ vision is to engage, challenge, and inspire students to create opportunities for themselves and others. It’s a powerful statement and the three action words — engage, challenge, and inspire — are important.

Why? Because our goal is to engage students in their

CHALLENGE: Once again, our students have had terrific academic results. This year our students did exceptionally well on the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments or MCAs. With a history of accomplishments, there might be plenty of reasons to rest on our laurels and keep doing what we’re doing. HowMARK LARSON ever, our staff members know this isn’t the right own learning. But more way to go. Instead, they than that, we also have to engage our community in challenge the status quo helping and supporting all and look to continuously innovate and improve eduof our students.

ENGAGE: One way that cation for all students.

INSPIRE: We want we’re engaging our older our students to set goals adults is via the Zephyr and receive an education Gold Pass. Launched that helps them attain three years ago, the Zephyr Gold Pass enables those goals. We want our all older adults who live in students to be inspired to create learning, working, our school district to attend home athletic events and serving opportunities and fi ne arts performanc- for themselves and others.

And this is already taking es for free. Our goal is to place. We have a number of ensure our older adults student-created initiatives have access to our events that provide service learnand, in doing so, feel coning, community engagenected and engaged with ment, and career exploraour students, staff, and tion experiences. schools.

MOVERS AND SHAKERS

As our students progress from preschool to graduation, they will have many chances to engage with the community and each other through academics, the arts, activities, and service learning projects. We want our students to be challenged to be the best they can be in whatever area is of interest to them.

And fi nally, we want our students to be inspired to create opportunities for their own learning, create opportunities for different projects or activities, and create opportunities for others to also reach their goals.

The vision statement is going to guide us for the next several years and we think it is powerful enough to be a driving force for student success.

As we begin another great school year, it’s reassuring to know that, as always, it’s a great time to be a Zephyr!

Concussions and fall sports Minnesota high school students suffered nearly 3,000 sportsrelated concussions during the 2013-14 school year, according to estimates based on voluntary reports to the Minnesota Department of Health by schools in the Twin Cities. While the concussions range from mild to severe, the point is that each one is considered a brain injury and that’s serious business.

As local football, soccer and cross country teams begin practice and games, it is important for athletes, parents and coaches know basic and important information about concussions and traumatic brain injuries (TBI). Sometimes the signs of a concussion or TBI are obvious; the patient is unconscious or acting “out of it”. But signs and symptoms are not always immediate. That’s why it is so important to understand the main causes and symptoms of concussions and brain injuries which are often more serious than just a “bump on the head”.

Immediately following a TBI, two things happen.

First the brain tissue reacts to the trauma with biochemical and physiological responses to brain cells that have been damaged or even destroyed. The second and more commonly known reaction, is the loss of consciousness which can last minutes, hours or even longer.

MOVERS AND SHAKERS

KURT BELK Other symptoms of a concussion or brain injury include short or long term changes in thinking, sensation, language and emotion.

Here are some of the physical symptoms a young athlete may experience if he or she has recently suffered a concussion or TBI: • Headache or “pressure” in head • Nausea or vomiting • Balance problems or dizziness • Fatigue or feeling tired • Blurry or double vision • Sensitivity to light or noise • Numbness or tingling • Does not “feel right” For adults, here are short and longer-term symptoms you might notice in an athlete who has suffered a concussion or TBI: • Appears dazed or stunned • Is confused about events • Answers questions slowly • Repeats questions • Can’t recall events prior to the hit, bump, or fall • Loses consciousness (even briefly)

• Shows behavior or personality changes • Forgets class schedule or assignments The most important thing to know if you or a loved one has sustained a blow to the head is to seek medical attention, especially if you are noticing any symptoms out of the ordinary. The key to recovering from even less severe head trauma is rest. For young athletes sustaining a concussion, it is important to stop play and sit it out, immediately. Your brain needs time to properly heal, so rest is necessary.

Athletes and children should be closely monitored by coaches upon resuming play.

Prevention is key to protecting yourself from serious head injuries.

When necessary, wear a helmet especially in sports like football and while up at bat for softball or baseball. These are instances when a tackle or pitch can cause irreversible damage to an athlete who isn’t wearing head protection.

Repeatc oncussions cause cumulative effects on the brain.

Successive concussions can have devastating consequences, including brain swelling, permanent brain damage, long-term disabilities, or even death.

Letters to the Editor Lose-lose situation Bryan and Jan Jarvinen VADNAIS HEIGHTS — The city of White Bear Lake continues to seek a cost sharing partner to replace the $1.4-2.4 million ice system at its aging ice arena.

Absent identifying financial partners, the White Bear City Council is not funding the costs alone. The White Bear Sport Center is home to the White Bear Area Hockey Association and it's very unfortunate neither the hockey association nor the city realized the condition of their ice arena before the Vadnais Sports Center financially failed.

Ironically, earlier this month the White Bear Area Hockey Association was back in front of the Vadnais Heights City Council seeking city approval to take over pull-tab sales at Jimmy's. In fact, the city has been threatened with litigation if the city denies the application.

Could there be a connection between the hockey association's need to raise money for their home ice arena and their relentless effort to take charitable gambling dollars out of Vadnais Heights?

We are not gamblers, but we think the proceeds from charitable gambling raised in Vadnais Heights should stay in Vadnais Heights to help the needy in our city. We find it unfortunate we're all in a lose-lose situation, especially if this charitable gambling issue ends up in the courts.

Business decision Robert Morse VADNAIS HEIGHTS — I was displeased, then saddened, to see the Vadnais Heights mayor and some council members go out of their way to deny a local business to legally and ethically pursue a change of venue for its pull tab partnership in order to attempt to increase patrons to the establishment, all in the convenient name of a technicality of an old form.

The city attorney rightly alerted them that there were no substantive differences between forms. This was quickly followed by a decision to place a moratorium on any future charitable gambling applications.

Secondly, the finance director summarized that since the proposed charitable foundation overpaid the 10 percent tax share over four years to the city from a present Vadnais Heights establishment, there might be an indication of problems in more complex areas. Smoke on the water and, I fear, another opening for adverse action which residents have to pay for.

Doesn’t a tax-paying business owner in good standing get to decide who to allow on his property to raise equally valid charitable funds with a foundation that is also in good standing locally? Government has no right to deny a business owner, or any of us, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, and if some don’t agree with it, they have the right to patronize another establishment.

In the words of The Gipper, government is not meant to run our lives.

Three Blind Mice Joyce Welander GRANT — Councilmen Larry Lanoux and Loren Sederstrom have requested a special City Council meeting at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 16 to discuss legal newspaper options for publishing the proposed city constitution (charter) as required by law prior to the Oct. 13 special election.

Why? Because the Three Blind Mice council majority has refused to allow them any opportunity to rationally discuss why the council should reconsider its choice of legal newspaper. The current legal newspaper's charter publication cost is approximately $34,000 while two other newspapers offer the same service for approximately $2,200 and $7,000.

This debacle has been brought about by Robert's Rules of Order that precludes a single councilperson from moving a

consent agenda item to the regular agenda where it can be openly discussed. The mice have conveniently found a way with the consent agenda rule to avoid discussion on matters of importance to the public. They scurry behind the scenes in darkness to avoid transparency about the truth in Grant.

Rush line options narrowed to three

by Kristine Goodrich Editor

Community meetings

Transit plans for the Rush Line Corridor are tentatively narrowed to three options and planners are collecting public input before conducting further study.

The three currently preferred options between St. Paul and the northeast metro are: a rapid bus on White Bear Avenue to southern White Bear Lake, rapid bus on a new busesonly road to Forest Lake, and light rail or similar diesel-powered transit to downtown White Bear Lake. The latter two would be located on former or existing railroad tracks adjacent to Highway 61.

Community open houses are being held this fall before transit leaders finalize their preferences and order more detailed examination of the feasibility of each option.

In an initiative dubbed the Rush Line, a coalition of area officials are studying many prospective transit options for commuters between downtown St. Paul and the northeast suburbs. The objective is to collectively select one preferred transit improvement option for which to seek federal, state and regional funding.

The recently completed first phase of evaluations gave a preliminary look at a number of potential transit modes and routes.

The preliminary study wasn't able to narrow down the prospective routes within the city of St. Paul; a number of possibilities will need to be studied in more depth, according to Rush Line Project Manager Mike Rogers.

North of St. Paul, the first-round study was able to rule out many of the options due to factors such as cost and low population density in the service area.

Light rail along White Bear Avenue was eliminated, for example, because it would

Three transit options north of St. Paul are recommended for further study.

Three upcoming meetings are planned in which community members are invited to come learn more about the Rush Line plans and provide feedback: • 5-7 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 22 at Headwaters Service Center in Forest Lake; presentation at 5:30 p.m.

• 5-7 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 29 at the Maplewood Community Center; presentation at 5:30 p.m.

• 6-8 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 30 at Arlington Hills Community Center in St. Paul have required too much right-of-way acquisition. A rapid transit bus route on I-35E to Forest Lake (which would run more frequently and have more stops than existing bus service) was eliminated because it was anticipated it wouldn't have high ridership and because the addition of MnPASS lanes on the freeway will improve the existing bus service.

In the northeast metro the prospects have tentatively been narrowed to three options: 1. All-day frequent bus service on White Bear Avenue to Highway 61.

2. Either a light rail line or diesel multiple unit line that ends in downtown White Bear Lake. A diesel multiple unit is similar to the light rail units that currently operate in Minnesota, except it’s powered by a diesel engine instead of overhead lines, Rogers explained.

3. Frequent bus service on a roadway reserved for buses only that would stretch to downtown Forest Lake.

Both the second and third options would utilize a corridor along Highway 61 currently occupied by trails or railroad tracks.

A segment south of White Bear Lake is former tracks currently occupied by the Bruce Vento Trail and owned by the Ramsey County Regional Rail Authority. Through White Bear Lake it is occupied by railroad tracks and owned by BNSF Railway. And to the north it is the Hardwood Creek Trail and owned by the Washington County Regional Rail Authority. The existing trails would not be eliminated and it is undecided whether a trail would be added along the White Bear Lake segment, Rogers said.

Three upcoming public meetings will give interested community members opportunity to learn more about the results of the first phase of the study and give feedback on the preliminary recommendations. Rush Line leaders will receive summaries of the feedback before they make a decision in November whether to move ahead with further study of the three proposed options.

The more in-depth study will project ridership numbers and construction and operating costs, weigh the environmental impact on neighborhoods and more. It also will decide details such as where the bus or transit stops would be located.

The second study is expected to conclude next spring and another round of public input will be collected then, Rogers said.

Tax levy Continued from page 1A city's overall 2015 and 2016 interest earnings are projected to be $300,000, which is $2.3 million less compared to 2007.

Councilman Kevin Edberg said he was concerned the city was not putting money aside like it did 10 years ago for large projects.

Sather said his point was well received, but wanted to add a different perspective.

"Those were unique times when we had those interest earnings. We had large surpluses to invest in a $10 million public works building, a public safety building and infrastructure. But we are a fully developed community. But for our parks system, and this haunting thing about what might happen to our water utility pending litigation, we don't have many of those big projects anymore."

The city still has good reserves and is carefully monitoring rates, he added.

Since 2013, the housing market has stabilized and recovered a significant portion of the market value that eroded during the recession, the memo read. About 80 percent

of the city's housing stock has increased in value compared to 2013. A recap of the median market valuations over the last eight years is shown in the table below.

Most of the levy, $4.56 million, goes into the general fund for governmental operations. The municipal building fund will use $160,000 for capital facility improvements, $75,000 will go for equipment acquisition and $132,000 will go to municipal debt service for the YMCA. Combined with other revenue sources, this levy will allow the city to meet its operating requirements, continue current service levels and meet its infrastructure maintenance needs for 2016.

A note of interest: The proposed levy, collectible in 2016, is exactly the same as the levy required to fund the 2007 budget.

The preliminary levy is used to develop property tax statements the county is required to mail to property owners in November. The council is scheduled to adopt the final tax levy on Dec. 8

Continued from page 1A

“John’s commitment and passion is reflected in his effort to make Mahtomedi School District an amazing place to learn and develop for both students and staff. He is one of the most respected staff members in our district. John is continually looking to improve himself and the district.”

— Keith Miley, guidance counselor who nominated John Taylor for teacher of the year

and young adults working to obtain GEDs. At Mahtomedi in years past Taylor has taught Advanced Placement, 12th-grade English and creative writing. Currently he teaches ninth and 10th-grade English.

Nine years ago he took a sabbatical from Mahtomedi to spend a year teaching in Shanghai at an English-speaking school. His then new bride had convinced him to come with her; she was a world traveler and fellow teacher (she's now a stay-at-home mom to their three children). The chief difference he observed is the Chinese culture emphasizes academic achievement and places little value in extracurriculars, Taylor said. He still keeps in touch with some of the teachers he met there who hail from across the globe.

He keeps in touch with many of his former Shanghai and Mahtomedi students as well. He recently attended a Mahtomedi alum's wedding. The most rewarding part of teaching is “seeing students grow up, get married and become successful,” he said.

His colleagues say Taylor goes above and beyond to ensure every student achieves success in his classes.

“John is very knowledgeable and he is able to reach every student he teaches,” Akins said. “He works effectively with students of all abilities and the kids are successful.”

“John is a teacher who is completely dedicated to his students,” said colleague David Wald. “His humor and caring attitude motivates students to excel in his classes. He is able to reach students who are not traditionally successful in the classroom.”

In addition to storytelling when applicable, Taylor said the key is engaging students in discussion. “If you let them have a voice they are more apt to try harder,” he said. It requires a “delicate dance” of maintaining control of the class while also being flexible at times to let the students lead the conversation, he said.

It's also important during those discussions for teachers to realize they “can't have all the answers,” he added. “Students respect teachers who admit they don't know but will help them find an answer,” Taylor said.

The quiet students often get a nudge before or after class to share their thoughts.

“I want every student to feel comfortable to speak in class,” he said.

Outside of the classroom, Taylor is the announcer for the high school football and hockey games. Sometimes his students ask him to weave some of his famous stories into his announcing; he opts against that temptation because he doesn't want to detract from the action on the field, he said.

For a number of years before he switched to announcing, Taylor coached the girls varsity hockey team and the freshman girls soccer team.

Taylor also leads the English department's “professional learning community” teacher professional development program.

“As a colleague, I go to him frequently for advice on students, assignments, lesson plans and life,” Halverson said. “He is an amazing resource, and I feel lucky to have him as part of our department.”

Cul-de-sac question has residents talking in circles

by Louise Ernewein Contributing writer WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP — It may have felt at times as though the Sept. 9 Town Board meeting was going around in circles.

That was due to item 6E on the agenda: discussion about a request to ban parking around the island at the center of the cul-de-sac on Bartylla Court.

About 10 residents of Bartylla Court attended to voice their opinions, which were split evenly on the question of allowing or doing away with parking on the road, which is a city street.

Town Board supervisors told the group to try to work together to find a resolution before asking for civic intervention — despite fire and police concerns about narrow access on the circle.

"If the neighbors can get together and try to work something out, then it makes it much more meaningful," said Town Clerk Bill Short.

Tom Horak, president of the homeowner's association for the cul-de-sac, said that he had brought the issue to the attention of all residents in July after a string of problems with trash and delivery trucks attempting to navigate around the island in the cul-de-sac while cars were parked on the circle.

"We have, as an association, a concern primarily for emergency vehicles," he said. "If there were a car parked there, would a fire engine or an ambulance be able to get through?"

His concerns were echoed by White Bear Lake Fire Department and in part by the Ramsey County Sheriff's Department, both of which were invited by town staff to give their opinion on the issue.

"The Fire Department prefers 'no parking' on the circle," wrote fire chief Tim Vadnais in his recommendation.

Ramsey County Sheriff deputy Mike Casey agreed, "It is tight," after driving the road, though he added: "I'm not in favor of more signage, probably wouldn't get enforced until there are complaints."

Other residents living on and near the circle were resistant to eliminating on-street parking on the cul-de-sac, arguing it would cause an undue burden on homeowners.

"Trucks have trouble navigating the circle whether there are cars parked there or not," said Dave Seidenstreicker. "A garbage truck with no cars parked there has to back up several times; the narrowness of the cul-de-sac is such that there are problems. If there could be modifications to that circle so that if a truck could drive over part of it, there wouldn't be damage to plantings, that would help."

One-year Bartylla Court resident Gerald Backhaus, who said he lived just outside the circle, said he thought a total parking ban was premature.

"The [homeowner's] association should be able to work together and come up with a situation where everyone could agree that there's not going to be parking in the circle during certain hours during the day," he said. "If you are talking about a fire truck [not being able to navigate the circle], my solution would be to get rid of the center island if it's that serious."

After hearing that the homeowner's association has one of its biannual meetings coming up in October, Town Board supervisors directed the residents to discuss the matter there.

They requested the association return to the township with a consensus on the action to take, up to and including removal of the center island.

In other action, the township: • Reviewed the plans and specifications for the old town hall relocation project and authorized the township engineering firm, TKDA, to advertise for bids to perform the work to move the building, currently on Hoffman Road, to Polar Lakes Park.

• Reviewed the plans and specifications for a project to address issues with groundwater seeping into sanitary sewer pipes to the east and west of Bald Eagle Lake. Action was required after the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services detected maximum levels in their sanitary sewer system were exceeded by the township in August last year. Engineering firm TKDA was also authorized to advertise for bids from

contractors to resolve the issue by fitting new pipe linings to extend the life of the pipes by another 50 years.

• Reviewed the plans and specifications for the rehabilitation of township well No. 5 to address quality issues to enable the well to be brought back into use as a secondary water supply for residents. Supervisors learned that the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, upon reviewing the township's plans to refurbish the well, required the incorporation of a backwash waste metering system, which will increase the cost of the project by $15,000, bringing the estimated total to nearly $382,000.

• Following a six-month conditional license approval, granted a full hobby kennel license to applicant Patrick DeGree to keep three dogs at his property at 5451 Normandy Court.

• Declined to remove a stop sign at the intersection of Otter View Trail and Otter View Circle after hearing from township staff that opinion in the neighborhood was split on the issue.

• Passed a resolution to reduce the 2016 debt service tax levy on residents from $254,179.38 to zero, after hearing that the township had sufficient funds in hand to pay all of its debt obligations for 2016.

• Passed a second resolution to adopt a preliminary 2016 tax levy of $3.06 million. This represents a 7 percent increase over the 2015 levy. For the owner of a $300,000 home in the township, the difference would represent an additional $50 a year in taxes. Township supervisors may vote to reduce the levy between now and the end of the year; they may not increase it.

• Approved deer bow hunting permits for Fredrick Espe, Ryan Sorenson, Dave Markoe and Michael Gatzke.

• Tabled a license agreement renewal with Paul Humble, the homeowner at 5512 Fisher Street, which allows the resident to.

• Appointed Steve Swisher to the Park Board for a term expiring April 30, 2018.

• Approved a request for a variance from Dennis Anderson at 5295 Anderlie Lane, to add a 480-square-foot extension to a 720-square-foot accessory structure.

Obituary Notices

Death Notices

Dupre

Miller

Bonnie M. Dupre, age 79, of Willernie, passed away peacefully on August 28, 2015.

Survived by her husband of 60 years, Jim; children, Jim Jr. (Mary Jo), Mike (Lynda) and Christine; 8 grandchildren, and 5 great-grandchildren.

Bonnie was a treasure and brought warmth, laughter and smiles to everyone she met. At her request, there will be no service. Private interment. Always and forever in our hearts!

Mark J. Miller, 54, of White Bear Lake, died Aug. 30. Memorial service was Sept. 12 at St. Stephen's Lutheran Church in White Bear Lake.

Winkel-Ledin Margaret M. Winkel-Ledin, 76, of Vadnais Heights, died Sept. 7. Mass of Christian burial was Sept. 14 at St. Odilia Church in Shoreview. Burial Ft. Snelling National Cemetery.

Randklev Ronald Martin Randklev, 87, of Grand Marais, formerly of White Bear Lake, passed away peacefully September 5, 2015. Ron will always be remembered as a devoted husband to his sweetheart Arlene for 62 years.

Ronald was very proud when 3M honored him with its Technical Achievement Award and Innovator of the Year Award for his research work developing polymer materials that helped create the multi-billiondollar 3M dental products division. In layman language, these innovations included the white dental filling mixture that was harder and safer than silver fillings. He merited 19 international patents for his work.

In the '50s and early '60s Ron also worked with a team of chemists to Randklev help solve the filtering and cleaning of rocket fuel used in the Atlas Missile Project; which later sent the first Americans to the moon.

He was born and raised in Crookston, Minnesota. He always spoke of those days with deep affection and also with great respect and appreciation for The People of the White Earth Indian Reservation where he hunted and dreamed and fished as a boy with his friends.

He was a graduate of Bemidji State University with degrees in chemistry. He served in the Army Air Corps during the Korean War, where he was stationed in San Antonio, Texas, and worked in a research laboratory on top-secret projects with former WWII German and American scientists.

When Ron retired, he lived north of Grand Marais on Lake Superior for more than 20 years where he fished for lake trout, groomed his organic food garden and their acre of flowers with his wife Arlene. He was home again in Northern Minnesota, the land of his birth, absorbing himself in nature.

Ron invested his whole life into creating and finishing projects; whether at work or at home, he was an industrious and creative man. He was a quiet man, brim full of ideas. He was an impeccable man, who observed what most people never see, when looking at the ordinary.

Ron suffered in the last years of his life with Alzheimer’s disease. But he never lost that smile, that wink, that determination to go on. “Ohh,” he’d say every day of his life, “that’s beautiful!”

Ron’s life was filled with angels as he slowly faded with Alzheimer’s disease. They are Rose Adair, Karin Adams, Vicki Nelson, Max Nelson, Pamela Jeans, Mary Lou Schultz and Jim Broede for his miles and miles and miles of walks and talks with Ron. And thanks to Dr. Alvin Holm, Dr. Matt Logan and his hospice team Rachel and Michelle, and Dr. Jose Bernard, and the entire Salvation Army Day Care Center of Maplewood with unheralded love from Pam and Andrea and their gifted staff.

For the past year of Ron’s life, we’ll forever praise the leadership and staff of Arthur’s Residence of Roseville. The respect, acceptance and embracing of Ron from Deb, Kate, Keturah, Emily, Anna, Eden, Amy, Brittney, Renata, Katie, Allison, Rina, Ashley, Christina, Alli, Lauren, Maria, Stephanie, and Jamie will always be a treasured gift. We called it Ron’s Shangri La. Ron is survived by his two daughters, Julie (Richard Leepart) Randklev and Mary Murray; four grandchildren, Dax Leepart, Kelsey (Patrick) Valdez, of San Antonio Texas, Katherine (Mark) Feitz, of Kansas City and Patrick Murray, of New York City; three greatgrandchildren, Gabriella Valdez and her brother Kaden James Valdez, and new grandson Henrik Alexander Feitz. Ron is also survived by two brother-in-laws, Arvid Mathias (Clarella Benett) Dalby and Raymond Leroy (Polly Rose) Dalby. Ron is preceded in death by his wife Arlene, his father Norman, his mother Olga, and brother-in-laws, Melvin Sigrid Dalby and John P. Tucker; sisters-in-law, Marie Olivia Tucker and Fern Jeanette Dalby and his best dog ever, Peaches.

A memorial service in remembrance of Ron will be held on Friday, October 2 at 11 a.m. at Mattson Funeral Home, Forest Lake, Minnesota. Family will greet friends one hour prior to the service.

Online condolences may be made at www.mattsonfuneralhome.com. Cards and memorials may be directed to Mattson Funeral Home and Cremation Services, 343 N. Shore Drive, Forest Lake, MN 55025.

Sports Marshall begins pro career; bring items for food shelf Just to clear the ice about the status of former University of Minnesota hockey player Ben Marshall, he's headed for a tryout with the Rockford IceHogs at the end of the month.

The former Mahtomedi High graduate and Gopher alternate captain has signed a contract with the Indy Fuel of the ECHL. Both Rockford and Indianapolis are farm clubs of the defending Stanley Cup champion Chicago Blackhawks.

Rockford is a member of the American Hockey League, and is the Blackhawks' top minor league affiliate. Marshall hopes to secure a spot in Rockford, and gain experience and seasoning with a goal of making the "big" club some day.

The defenseman brings a noteworthy resume to professional hockey that includes 159 games with Minnesota, that featured four conference titles and two Frozen Four berths.

Marshall was a steady and reliable performer for coach Don Lucia and flourished at the point on the Gopher power plays.

Having made no fewer that 16 trips with wife Linda to see son Ben as a member of Omaha in USHL before his Gopher days, dad Scott Marshall is excited about his son's entrance into professional hockey.

"We'll be driving to see him whether he makes the Rockford team, or gets his feet wet first with Indy," he said with a laugh. "Ben's agent suggested he might consider playing in Sweden, but Ben wants to play in the states. Sometimes kids go (overseas) to play, and kind of disappear from the radar screen. Besides, he can always play in Europe. The (Olympic size) rinks in Europe might even suit his game better (than the smaller NHL ice sheets).

Best of luck to Ben Marshall, whatever direction he skates. He's already made us proud as a Zephyr and Gopher both on and off the ice.

EXTRA POINT

MARK AGUIRRE "Harvest Bowl."

The Bears and Mustangs bump heads, with bragging rights at stake.

The Mustangs enter the game with a 3-1 record, while the Bears are 1-3 following a tough defeat at the hands of Cretin-Derham Hall last Friday on a late Raider field goal.

Patrons are reminded donations will be taken for the White Bear Lake Area Food Shelf at the game. Bring three nonperishable food items to the game and gain free admission.

Items of need include canned fruit, pudding cups, applesauce cups, pancake syrup, ketchup, mustard, and crackers.

The game is set to begin at 7 p.m.

Junior linebacker Antwan Lee (No. 30) runs for a touchdown after recovering a fumble.

Late Raider field goal deflates Bears hopes

By Mark Aguirre Contributing Writer WHITE BEAR LAKE — A 14-point lead proved to be fleeting for the White Bear Lake football team Friday night against Cretin-Derham Hall.

The Bears raced out to a two-touchdown lead and went toe-to-toe with the always formidable Raiders, only to get kicked around in the final moments of a 31-28 defeat.

Actually they weren't kicked around, but booted away from victory on a Benedict Schlueter 32-yard field goal with just 1:28 remaining in the struggle.

"It was a great back-andforth game," offered Bear head coach Ryan Bartlett.

"The kids really competed hard — we just made a couple more mistakes than them. Sam Broberg (who made three touchdowns) really had a clutch game at wide receiver. He made some great plays and tough catches. Safety Antwan Lee led the defense and had a touchdown."

The Bears deadlocked the game 28-28 with 6:23 left in regulation when Jessiah Majest flipped a 10-yard scoring pass to Broberg before running in for a twopoint conversion to knot the game.

White Bear led 7-0 after the opening quarter on a

Cretin quarterback Dan Ryan had a touchdown pass in the first half, and two scoring strikes to Denzel Fondungallah in the second half. He finished with 13 completions in 19 attempts for 171 yards. Fondungallah had four receptions for 77 yards and two touchdowns.

The Bears bring a 1-3 overall record into their game Friday night against visiting Mounds View. The Mustangs are 3-1 after beating Roseville 20-7 last week.

"After losing to East Ridge, we challenged our team to look in the mirror (and ask) what they could do better," said Bartlett.

"I told that to the coaches as well. We weren't happy with the result against East Ridge, but if we have another great week of practice, you always give yourself a chance on Friday. That is our focus every week, to have great practices that give us a chance on Friday."

Lakeside property owners get assessment bill WHITE BEAR LAKE — Along with the many improvements along Lake Avenue South in front of the old Johnson Boat Works site, come some hefty assessments.

Over a three-year period, both city and business owners along the avenue from Whitaker Street North to Highway 61 had property lines realigned, water, sewer and storm sewer installed, built a parking ramp and constructed a dumpster enclosure for joint city marina and VFW use.

To facilitate the $631,000 in improvements, the city entered into agreements with the VFW, Sampair Properties (owner of the Acqua building), Keith and Jan Dehnert and Boatworks Commons LLC. At its Sept. 8 meeting, the City Council declared the

costs to be assessed and set a Sept. 22 hearing date for the proposed assessments.

Impacted property owners, who have 20 years to pay for the upgrades, were assessed as follows: • City of White Bear Lake - $190,500 for street and parking ramp • Dehnerts for C.G. Hooks Eatery - $40,000 for street, storm sewer and parking ramp • Dehnerts for Tally's Dockside - $42,000 for street, water and sewer and parking ramp • Sampair Companies - $78,300 for street, storm sewer and ramp • Keep Zimmer Post 1782 VFW - $25,000 for street, storm sewer, dumpster enclosure and parking lot

• Boatworks Commons, LLC for apartments and restaurant - $225,000 for public improvements and parking ramp All but the Dehnerts have signed the petitions for assessment, according to city engineer Mark Burch. He told the council the business owners would be penalized for delaying the process if they do not sign by end of day Sept. 22.

City Manager Mark Sather pointed out that both Tally's and C.G. Hooks are "woefully underparked."

"They don't have near enough parking to accommodate seating. With acceptance of the assessment (for the parking ramp), they are made whole; they are in compliance.

I'm surprised they haven't signed."

To help advance that discussion, she shared the district definition and vision for equity as follows: Definition: At Northeast Metro 916, equity means that everyone has access to what they individually need in order to learn, grow and thrive.

Vision: At Northeast Metro 916, equity is a core component of all of our work and is necessary to maximize the potential of each individual student, staff and family. We believe equity is a continuous and challenging process in which we must work to recognize and reduce assumptions and biases to truly understand the needs and potential of those whom we support. We are dedicated to fully engaging with others about our differences and deepening conversations around dignity, inclusion and culture. We will hold ourselves accountable for our words and actions through our everyday interactions with each other. We are committed to using equity to guide all interactions, decisions, and instruction.
