Critics say the charter is unnecessary and its allowance of citizen petitions could lead to more special elections and a minority of citizens undermining the elected City Council.

The first question on the Oct. 13 ballot will ask Grant voters if the proposed charter should be adopted. The second question asks voters if the city's Charter Commission should be disbanded if the charter doesn't pass.

If the majority of voters decide “yes” on the charter, the second ballot question is moot. State law requires cities that have a charter to have a charter commission. The commission's role would turn from developing a charter to considering proposing amendments to the charter.

If the majority of citizens cast “no” votes on both questions, the commission would remain intact and could later

After walking from Duluth to White Bear Lake in 2013 and camping in the cold to collect toilet paper in 2014, a White Bear Lake firefighter and friends this year are driving across the state thanking police officers.

From Oct. 17 to 19, Jeff Loeks and at least 10 fellow firefighters, paramedics and friends will drive from the Canada border to the Iowa border stopping at dozens of police stations presenting a token of gratitude. They're fundraising to support their journey and the Loeks purchase of gifts. Donors can request that a department of their choosing be honored with a personalized medallion and certificate.

If a sponsored department is too far out of their path through eastern Minnesota, Loeks will mail the thankyou gifts.

In 2013, Loeks started Firefighter Special Teams, an organization of first responders dedicated to charitable endeavors.

Given current events, Loeks said a journey to thank law enforcement officers was a no-brainer choice for what's becoming a tradition of fall feats for a good cause.

As a fellow first responder, Loeks said he is inspired when he often “gets to see [law enforcement officers] in their kindest moments helping people in tough situations.”

While police shootings and racial tensions have grabbed headlines, Loeks said the vast majority of law enforcement officers honorably protect and serve, and need a reminder they are appreciated. The firefighters said he's heard the same sentiment from many others and many of them have added a wish there were more opportunities to show their support.

So Loeks devised the idea for a trip of gratitude with invites for people to join or sponsor him.

He's starting on the Rainy River Bridge and will spend the first day visiting police stations between Baudette and Duluth. Day two will be spent between Duluth and the Twin Cities. Day three, he'll trek to Rochester and Albert Lea, making several more stops in between. His final stop at the state's southern border is still to be determined.

Loeks has invited fellow medics, nurse friends and their family and friends to join him on the journey. As of last week, roughly 10 were planning to trek with him for all of the route, several more were planning to come for parts of the excursion and a few more were interested but unconfirmed. Others are welcome to join him for all or portions of their trip, Loeks said.

People and organizations also can show their support by giving a donation. Donors can request that the travelers stop at any police department along or near their route. If donors lodge their request before Oct. 9, the medallions (which are being made by Hisdahl's) and certificates can be customized to include the

Voters to decide if charter adds protection or overreaches

by Kristine Goodrich Editor GRANT — Citizens will decide next Tuesday whether to adopt a new governing document called a charter and, if the charter doesn't pass, whether to disband the commission that created the proposed document.

A charter is a city constitution of sorts that provides additional restrictions on a city's governance beyond what is dictated by state law. Less than 13 percent of Minnesota's cities have a charter. The proposed charter was drafted by a commission comprised of citizens appointed by a county judge.

Proponents of the proposed Grant charter say the document's principal objectives are creating additional protections that ensure Grant will remain rural as well as providing citizens a greater voice in governing decisions.

Directing career takes WBL native across the country

by Kristine Goodrich Editor A theater production company founded by a White Bear Lake native has created hits such as “How to Talk Minnesotan: the Musical” and “Church Basement Ladies.” Founder Curt Wollan travels the country directing those shows and many others.

Wollan spends half his year on the road producing and/or directing everything from three national tours of “Forbidden Broadway” to a production of “Ring of Fire” at a small theater in Alexandria. Every summer for 35 years he has produced the “Medora Musical,”an outdoor Wild West-themed show in North Dakota. For 14 years he has directed a holiday show at Dollywood Theme Park in Tennessee.

Four sequels since have been penned about the four rural Minnesotan cooks and their pastor in the 1960s. A fifth sequel, about the men of the church, is in development.

Approximately 350 women have portrayed the four female charters in the many restagings of the shows across the country. The pastor’s role has been portrayed by the likes of Barry Williams (Greg on “The Brady Bunch”) and William Christopher (Father Mulcahy on “MASH”), both of whom Wollan

Something here is different...

BY CARTER JOHNSON PUBLISHER

Take a look a this story. Now compared to the others in this edition, it looks a little different. The font is altered. The spacing between paragraphs is gone, too. The byline is centered with the column and so is the headline. There is also a pencil thin line separating this story with the one next to it.

Why? This story is an example of the changes White Bear Press readers can expect as part of the Press’ redesign to appear in papers next week.

These tweaks to the layout of the story are part of the Press’ efforts to make the newspaper more user friendly for our readers. This isn’t the first time the Press has gone through such changes. Imagine a

Business Briefs

newspaper from 100 years ago. Back then, news stories were displayed in tight columns of text running all up and down the news page appearing a little like bars on a jail cell.

Over time, newspaper design evolved to include photos, larger headlines and color to make them more lively and modern. Since that time, studies have been done that calculate how many letters in a line of text are easiest to read and what fonts are the most comfortable for reader eyes and more. This new information has further refined newspaper design. Many of the Press’ new design changes were made with these studies and usability for our readers in mind.

Not only is the appearance of the news stories different, the new design of the Press also means the size of page will be approximately 6 inches shorter.

This size is easier to hold, easier to read and more portable. This does not mean there will be less content. As the pages get smaller, more pages are added to hold all of the content you have come to expect from the Press.

Not only is it easier to handle, the smaller page size also allows us to use our printing presses more efficiently and gives us the potential to have more full color pages. This is good news for both our readers and advertisers.

Even though it may seem very different at first, we hope our readers enjoy the new look of the Press.

If you have concerns about the new design, please feel free to contact ppinfo@ presspubs.com or call 651-407-1200.

Man charged with stalking councilwoman After he followed a Grant City Council member this summer, a Mahtomedi man is facing a stalking charge.

Timothy John Dewuske, 54, was charged by the Grant city prosecutor with gross misdemeanor stalking. He will make his first court appearance on Oct. 20.

According to Washington County Sheriff Department and Centennial Lakes Police Department incident reports: Dewuske followed Councilwoman Tina Lobin from the July 30 Grant emergency council meeting to Trailside Park in Centerville where Lobin was participating in a waterski show. Lobin claims Dewuske accosted her, videotaped her and for several minutes refused her and her husband's requests that he leave her alone. Lobin said she felt frightened and intimidated, according to the sheriff report.

A sheriff deputy contacted Dewuske about the incident on Aug. 10. According to that deputy's report: Dewuske admit-

ted he recorded and questioned Lobin about political issues and did not leave when asked because Lobin wasn't answering his questions. He said he didn't believe he had done anything wrong. He declined to identify whose cell phone he had used to record the encounter and who had driven him to the park.

He told the deputy he went to the park to document the fact that Lobin was there. Two members of the City Council had requested that the emergency council meeting be held later in the day so more people who work during the day could attend as observers. The council majority opted to schedule the meeting in the afternoon, reportedly because they had plans that evening.

The sheriff's office incident report notes that Dewuske previously had been escorted out of a Grant City Council meeting by a sheriff deputy due to “inappropriate behavior.”

Alumni celebration includes celebration of former teacher

by Kristine Goodrich Editor The fifth White Bear Lake Area Alumni Association all-classes reunion will launch a new tradition: recognizing a former educator.

The inaugural recipient of the honor is Edwin Nakasone, a history teacher at White Bear Lake High School from 1956 to 1970. He will be presented the alumni association’s first scholars award for excellence as part of an alumni celebration on Oct. 10 at the Armory.

For years the association has recognized accomplished alumni through its Nakasone hall of fame. According to board members Deb Berry and Dan Jones, association leaders decided this year they also wanted to start paying tribute to the educators who made a mark on their young lives and gave to the community in other ways.

Arts center benefit Artists are invited to donate small, original artworks for a one-night only event for the White Bear Center for the Arts.

The goal is 1,000 pieces of art donated by Friday, Oct. 30. Called Small Art — Big Hearts, the event is Friday, Nov. 13. All artwork will be priced at $30. The original work must be submitted on 5x7 inch paper by artists ages 18 and older.

For submission form and guidelines, visit www.

WhiteBearArts.org. Proceeds benefit the center's art education programs.

It’s still undecided how often the association will give the honor, perhaps annually or at each all-school reunion that is held every three or four years.

Nakasone was the unanimous choice by the association board as the first honoree, Jones said.

According to Press archives and information acquired by Berry: Nakasone, now age 88, taught 11th-grade American history at White Bear Lake High School. After also teaching part time at Lakewood Community College for a few years he left the high school and taught history and international relations at the college (which became Century College) from 1970 to 1999. In later years, in two-month stints, he taught history to sailors aboard Navy ships.

Nakasone is the son of Japanese immigrants and grew up in Hawaii. He was 14 when he witnessed Japanese planes bomb an airfield and barracks as part of the Pearl Harbor attack. He enlisted in the Army right out of high school. By then the war was ending, but he was sent to Japan as an interpreter aiding the reconstruction.

Opinion Multitasking myth There are buzzwords ANGLE OF and phrases that we hear, VIEW read and use on a daily basis that have become so firmly ingrained in our collective vocabulary that they manage to persist even though they are imprecise or even wrong.

Currently at the top of my list is the term multitasking. It’s gotten to PAUL DOLS the point that I can’t even count the number of times each week that I read or hear about how someone’s advanced multitasking abilities are contributing to their efficiency and productivity. However, contrary to popular belief, a growing number of independent research studies at major universities — including Stanford, Harvard and MIT — are revealing (with a couple of specific exceptions) that when our attention is divided between several tasks at the same time we aren’t really multitasking.

According to an article in Psychology Today, our brains are actually shifting from one task to another in rapid succession, or serial tasking. In fact, the Stanford University study participants with the most confidence in their multitasking abilities were not able to control their memory or switch from one job to another as well as the participants who said they preferred to complete one task at a time. I’m speculating, but wouldn’t be surprised to find that people with an inflated sense of confidence in their multitasking abilities are also more likely to think they can safely get away with texting while driving.

While it appears that the researchers who organized these studies wanted to find out (and tap into) how young digitally connected, heavily multitasking students were exercising the superior attention and thought control needed to text message, listen to music, surf the web and do their homework at the same time, they instead discovered that, when tested, these students didn’t perform as well as their lighter multitasking counterparts, were more easily distracted and also had difficulty filtering out superfluous information.

Studies have shown that it is possible for our brains to engage in two tasks simultaneously, but only if two conditions are met. The first is that one of the tasks has to be automatic, like walking or eating.

The second condition is that the tasks must involve different types of brain processing. An example given in an NPR story online is that you can effectively read while listening to classical music, but information retention dramatically declines once lyrics are introduced because both tasks now involve the language center of the brain.

While still in high school, I can remember the adrenaline rush and borderline terror I experienced when I first drove on a high speed multi-lane freeway while giving my brother a ride from our small rural hometown up to the University of Minnesota. Thankfully our brain allows us to perform repetitive (and relatively complex) tasks like driving without having to constantly relearn each step. That said, I can still guarantee that you won’t find me weaving though traffic along Hwy. 94 while using a cellphone. With the abundance of pressures and distractions modern life presents, it can sometimes feel like we’re all collectively speeding down a multilane freeway with little time for reflection.

I personally believe that a good local newspaper can provide a trusted destination in a crowded and competitive media landscape currently dominated by powerful national entities. Earlier this year, as part of our continuing effort to ensure that the Press remains a relevant and important component in local life, we launched an enhanced online mobile site.

Now, we are preparing to launch an updated and revised version of our print edition. The new format is designed to be more reader friendly, visually vibrant and portable. While we don’t advocate trying to read it while driving or mowing the lawn, we do hope that you continue to find the original stories, photos and local news produced and edited by our staff worthy of your valuable time and attention.

A common sense approach to e-cigarettes in Ramsey County On September 22, I voted with other Ramsey County Commissioners to approve the Ramsey County Clean Indoor Act Ordinance.

The Ramsey County Clean Indoor Act, which will take effect in mid-November does two things: • Prohibits the use of e-cigarettes in those public spaces where cigarette smoking is currently not allowed under the Minnesota Clean Indoor Act, and • Prohibits both cigarette smoking and e-cigarette “vaping” within 25 feet of building entrances, open windows and ventilation intakes of public buildings.

E-cigarettes were largely unknown just a few years ago, but today their use is now on the rise nationally and among youth. This rapid increase has implications for people who “vape,” for the air quality of our public spaces, and for the health of adolescents. Several Minnesota counties and communities have taken action to restrict e-cigarette use in public spaces.

MOVERS AND SHAKERS

BLAKE HUFFMAN The products are not currently subject to any manufacturing standards or federal regulation, and the quality and content of ingredients varies among brands. The FDA and several other public health organizations agree on the need for further study to determine the overall public health impact of e-cigarettes. Treating the use of e-cigarettes like tobacco cigarettes in public spaces now gives us more time to determine the safety and health impacts of e-cigarettes.

While the vapor doesn’t contain the same cancercausing elements as cigarette smoke, poten-

tially harmful chemicals found in some e-cigarettes have included: heavy metals, dietheylene glycol, genotoxins, and diacetyl – which is known to cause lung damage.

Testifying in support of the ordinance at a public hearing in September, a cardiologist and medical director expressed great concern about exposure to diacetyl by e-cigarette users and those exposed to it involuntarily. Also testifying in favor of the ordinance, a chemist from 3M noted that if a roll of tape contained the heavy metals found in some ecigarettes, its sale would be regulated.

E-cigarettes also have the potential to roll back the progress we’ve made over the last few decades in reducing cigarette smoking rates, particularly among young people.

Marketing e-cigarettes to children with candy, bubble gum and gummi bear flavors, and other promotional efforts to target youth, were mentioned as a concern by several residents in their testimo-

ny at the public hearing.

Public health advocates who have worked hard to save lives and millions in medical costs by reducing smoking are concerned e-cigarettes are a gateway to tobacco smoking, and will hook a new generation of kids and adults.

A study just published this month in the JAMA medical journal appears to validate that concern, fi nding that high school students that use electronic cigarettes are more likely over time to smoke tobacco cigarettes.

Given the multiple concerns expressed at the public hearing, the study of this issue by Ramsey County’s public health department and other agencies, I believe that the Ramsey County Clean Indoor Act is a prudent – and commonsense – measure to avoid unnecessary health risks and ensure we continue to enjoy clean air in and around public spaces.

Mental Illness Awareness Week celebrates 25th anniversary The fi rst full week in October is Mental Illness Awareness Week (MIAW).

It was established by Congress in 1990, thus we are holding this event for the 25th year from October 4 through October 10. After a quarter of a century of work to raise awareness, educate the public about mental illnesses and promote acceptance of people with mental illnesses one must ask – has it made a difference?

The answer is yes – although our work is not close to being done.

Thanks to MIAW and other awareness campaigns such as Make It OK, Bring Change 2 Mind, and efforts by NAMI through the In Our Own Voice program, public understanding is improving. A Harris Poll conducted in August of 2015 found that 89% of people responding felt that mental health and physical health are equally important. People certainly know more about mental illnesses and the brain than they did 25 years ago.

One surprising fi nding is that while the public’s understanding of mental illnesses has increased, attitudes towards people with mental illnesses have not changed enough.

Mental illnesses and violence continue to be wrongly linked, which affects a number of things including people seeking treatment early, the ability to fi nish school or maintain employment, and the willingness of

MOVERS AND SHAKERS

SUE ABDERHOLDEN communities to support programs to treat and support both children and adults with mental illnesses.

Public policies, which have a huge impact on people’s lives, have changed as well over the past 25 years. Long-term discrimination under Medicaid, Medicare and private insurance meant there was no steady stream of funding to pay for treatment and services. While some refer to “our broken system of care,” the reality is that the system was never built. That same Harris Poll found that many (43%) felt that mental health care is not affordable and a third felt it is not accessible for most people and that people do not know where to find mental health care.

Key legislation has helped with awareness and inclusion, namely the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Mental Health Parity Act of 1996,

the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act, the Paul Wellstone and Pete Domenici Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008, and, most recently, the Affordable Care Act of 2010, which guaranteed healthcare coverage through exchanges.

The Minnesota legislature also made significant recent investments in its mental health system in 2013 and 2015, creating a framework and a set of services and supports that will be further developed during the next two years across the state, providing hope for thousands.

Andy Warhol said, “They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.” MIAW has made a difference; and the incredible changes that have taken place have been due to the hard work of countless individuals with mental illnesses, their family members and mental health professionals who have joined together to continue to change attitudes and laws not only during MIAW but throughout the year.

WHITE BEAR/VADNAIS HEIGHTS PRESS

Letters to the Editor Charter scam Jeff Huber GRANT — A confession: I’m a bad politician. I tell it like it is and I have principles.

I’m obviously disqualified from higher office.

The special charter election is a scam. Originally scheduled for November 2016, the Charter Commission pushed a special election (Oct.13) on the city hoping you don’t show up to vote.

The usual lie is in play: city water. The only council member who’s ever planned for city water is Charter Commission member Larry Lanoux. I confronted him on it at the June council meeting, watch it.

Lanoux also proposed a 29 percent tax increase at our initial budget meeting: ouch. The charter, if approved, can make tax increases this big stick. The majority this time wisely knocked it back to 4 percent.

If you follow any news in Grant, a video of Lanoux explaining his city water plan is easy to find, watch it. Originally, they said the charter would keep Grant transparent and open. Two weeks ago the charter decided none of its meeting tapes were public and voted to stop taping their meetings altogether. You see they were about to get publicity they didn’t want; that’s some transparency.

If you don’t like your councilperson you can fire them by electing someone else. Okaying this charter means a judge appoints people to draft policy forever. Don’t like those people?

Too bad, you can’t vote them out.

A council is subject to voters, with open meetings and public disclosure your best defense. If your goal is low taxes, rural character and real transparency, our system has delivered for many years. People know charters don’t work since none have been approved since 1993. Afton, Cottage Grove, Eagan and Greenfield all fired their commissions.

Vote no to the charter and yes to disband. Show up and be heard on Oct. 13.

Editor's note: The letter writer is a Grant City Council member.

Community and civic pride John D. Smith GRANT — The Grant City Council led by Mayor Carr requested the District Court to appoint a Charter Commission: Council Resolution 2013-08.

The original Charter Commission included: Mayor Carr, Councilman Bohnen, two lawyers, three former planning commissioners, one businessman/horseman and one retiree.

All were long-term Grant residents.

Mayor Carr and council members Huber and Lobin have twice signed petitions to disband the Charter Commission.

They prefer Thomas’s Rules, not Robert’s Rules of Order.

They can’t lose when they make the rules.

The council majority paved the way for an ice arena, supper club, wedding barn and home occupation invasion. Big brother is watching out for you.

The council majority accepts anonymous conditional use permit complaints. The building inspector will visit you soon.

The council majority and their city planner are rewriting land use definitions and zoning. Goodbye “home in the country,” hello “home in the city.”

The council majority tossed 4-H out of Town Hall after 50 years of service to the community. Town Hall is now known as “council chambers.” Shame, shame shame.

Mayor Carr says he doesn’t want a charter. He prefers doing things his way with Thomas’s Rules. The charter lets citizens have a place and voice in public affairs. What a novel idea.

The proposed charter is about community and civic pride.

The council majority is about looking into your yard and business. They should spend more time looking at roads and stormwater problems.

The proposed charter guarantees your right to stable, farm, hunt, fish and preserve the rural nature of your land and waterways. Glory Alleluia!

Vote yes for the proposed Charter on Oct. 13 at Oak Hill Church or now by absentee ballot at the Washington County Courthouse.

Change in Grant Robert Tufty GRANT — Each election cycle in Grant produces a chorus of candidates proclaiming a desire to keep Grant rural and that there will be no changes in Grant. Why then, are some of those same people trying to change Grant with a Charter Commission when that is, in fact, a huge change? The $40,000 for this charter election plus very substantial future hidden costs are frightening.

Is this a power play, or a method of pulling off an end run around the City Council to obtain an expensive road program for Indian Hills paid for by all Grant residents including those who live on gravel roads and state or county roads? By "end run" I refer to a charter provision which allows a petition to overrule the City Council by calling for another special election.

Our small population city does not need another layer of government. We also do not need a nine-person judge-appointed government body. This is America, where a representative republic form of government thrives, except in the cases like a Charter Commission.

Your vote is needed to assure that no change in Grant remains a true statement. Please vote no on the charter and yes to disband the Charter Commission. Go to the city of Grant website at: www.cityofgrant and read the proposed charter and also www.newsingrant.com for more information. Please, don’t let them change Grant.

Provides protection Larry Lanoux GRANT — Recently Mayor Tom Carr has indicated to local news agencies that the special election for a charter will cost $34,000 to publish the charter and $6,300 for the county to administer the election. The cost could have been approximately $1,500 for city election judges and $2,200 to publish the charter in a different qualified local newspaper. Why is Mayor Carr wasting more than $36,000 of your tax dollars?

Mayor Carr petitioned the court to appoint a Charter Commission. If the mayor is willing to misrepresent the cost of the election, how else has he misled the citizens?

Mayor Carr petitioned the court to appoint a Charter Commission.

At the May council meeting, Councilman Huber asked for council consensus to put pressured water within the city of Grant on the next agenda as well as a waste water treatment plant.

At the June council meeting, the council majority voted against my resolution opposing prospective legislation for construction of a waste water treatment plant. The Northeast Metro Water Supply report released by the Metropolitan Council (an appointed body) proposes connecting the northeast communities with the St. Paul Regional Water Services to supply drinking water. Estimated capital cost is $623 million and annual operating cost is estimated at $18 million.

Are you ready to cap your well and crush your septic tank?

One only has to drive into Lake Elmo to see the future if the council majority keeps supporting Met Council policy.

Without a charter, only three votes from the council majority are required to allow public water and sewer, which will change the rural nature of the city. With a charter it would require approval from 51 percent of the citizens.

Imagine a council that allows citizen input and participation, that is dedicated to keep out public sewer and water, that maintains a 10-acre density and rural character.

The charter, which is a constitution for the city, not a layer of government, can protect our unique city.

Vote yes to adopt the charter and no to disband the Charter Commission.

Editor's note: The letter writer is a Grant City Council and Charter Commission member.

Checks and balances Peggy VanDeRiet GRANT — I am writing this to urge voters in Grant to vote “yes” to adopt the Home Rule Charter on Oct. 13. Changes in ordinances, zoning and conditional use permits, etc. takes only a majority vote of the City Council’s five members. This means that three people, out of Grant’s 4,000-plus residents, have the power to unilaterally decide critical issues affecting what is allowed on our property and what we can do on our property.

Currently, the number one stated goal of Grant’s comprehensive plan is to “Preserve the rural character of Grant…” Three council members can change our comprehensive plan, resulting in city-mandated sewer and water, increased density and other ordinances and zoning changes which could contribute to the destruction of our rural lifestyle.

Passage of the charter will ensure citizen participation in our city government and reinforce adherence to our comprehensive plan. With a charter, it would take 51 percent of Grant’s voters to change our comprehensive plan. In addition, the charter would mandate the City Council to reinstate a Planning Commission, allowing citizens a more meaningful voice in our city.

I don’t believe the current system, where just three out of five council members have so much control over our lives, is best for our city. I believe a city charter would provide a system of checks and balances. Please join me in voting “yes” to adopt the Home Rule Charter.

Unnecessary and redundant Alice Pepin GRANT — I read the proposed Grant charter and see that it’s missing the most important provision. In fact, this one provision could constitute the entire charter. It goes something like this: “Whereas the citizens of Grant have endured years of childish behavior on the part of many of their elected officials, going forward our government and individuals participating in government will hereby conduct themselves as adults in a mutually respectful manner, keeping the best interests of the city of Grant in the forefront at all times.”

We’re very privileged to live in this beautiful (I’d like to also say “peaceful”) city, but the way many of our city officials behave, you’d think they live in a crowded tenement building.

Forget the unnecessary and redundant charter. Go to your corners and come out and shake hands, and then get on with the business of running our city properly.

WHITE BEAR PRESS

Director Continued from page 1A directed.

The original show is back at Plymouth Playhouse for a 10th anniversary run through mid-November. Wollan directed the local revival, then spent much of September directing a staging of sequel No. 3 for a theater in Pennsylvania and is currently directing sequel No. 4 for a theater in Iowa.

He hasn’t yet tired of his frequent turns with the same cast of characters. “It’s nice to come back to an old friend,” he said, adding that he enjoys the challenge of “putting new little twists” on each production.

He’s proud, he said, that successful stagings of the show have helped revive a number of theaters that were struggling financially.

Wollan said he knew “Church Basement Ladies” would be a hit before it hit the stage.

“It’s funny and it’s relatable to everyone,” he said. “It celebrates underappreciated women who give of themselves and love working in their church basements.

Everyone knows someone like that.”

Growing up, Wollan still remembers hearing the laughter coming from the kitchen of Lakeview Lutheran Church in Maplewood,

where his mother was a church basement lady in her own right.

Wollan’s first time on a stage was at Lakeshore Players Theatre in White Bear Lake. He vaguely recalls taking a youth acting class there and wearing a mushroom costume.

He also acted at White Bear Lake High School.

The 1969 graduate doesn’t remember what his first play was in 11th grade, but he remembers he played a soldier and he wasn’t happy about having to wear tights.

At Luther College he majored in theater and speech. He planned to try his hand at acting until the graduate school acting program at the University of Iowa was eliminated just as he was about to start classes, so he switched to the still-offered directing program.

He acted a bit after college, but found his niche in directing.

In 1987, he was working at what’s now the Plymouth Playhouse (it was then called the Radisson Playhouse) when the company that produced all the theater’s shows moved out of town. Wollan found a partner and they formed a production company and they took over the playhouse, located in a Plymouth hotel.

– Submitted photo

The cast of Plymouth Playhouse’s 10th anniversary production of “Church Basement Ladies,” directed by Curt Wollan include, from left, Tara Borman, Greta Grosch, Dorian Chalmers and Janet Paone.

Now Wollan owns the company and it still produces all the playhouse’s shows. Premieres at the playhouse have included multiple original stage adaptations of the book “How to Talk Minnesotan” and a series of musicals co-written by Wollan featuring the fictional performing group “The Lovely Liebowitz Sisters.”

Wollan’s company, Troupe America, has produced many nationally touring shows, including multiyear runs of “Miracle on 34th Street,” “Schoolhouse Rock Live” and “Babes in Toyland.” Troupe America has staged shows in every state in the U.S. and every province in Canada, according to Wollan.

Wollan has another company for his summer endeavor in the top tourist town in North Dakota. It’s a new variety show every year celebrating Theodore Roosevelt and his time in the Badlands. Wollan met his wife in Medora over 30 years ago. Now his grown children are involved in the show; his son is a performer and

Own mafia Tina Lobin GRANT — Larry Lanoux and his friends have been harassing and bullying just about anyone who has anything to do with city government. It is difficult to get work done at the council table with all of the outrageous accusations, outbursts and hostility. It appears Lanoux is only on the council to satisfy his own personal needs and could care less about rules.

Lanoux threatened me following the July 30 meeting. One of his friends then followed me to Centerville to video me while yelling in my face. Stalking me, what’s next? Is this the behavior Grant residents want from the co-chair of the Charter Commission and a councilman?

I recently asked Charter Commission Chairwoman Barb Kelly why they are pushing this special election costing taxpayers so much extra money. She said she knew why but didn’t want to talk about it. Really? I suspect they believe low-information voters at the 2016 election would be more apt to vote no on the charter, and the commission can get more supporters out to this special election than their opposition.

The excuse Lanoux and friends are giving for the early election is that Tom Carr and Jeff Huber want to bring water and sewer to Grant. That’s ridiculous! That scare tactic has been used in Grant for many years. The Charter Commission’s own attorney told them the charter can’t prevent it.

The charter also has a recall provision. If Larry doesn’t like a council member, he’ll get a petition going and then here comes more special elections. How many special elections will we have to pay for? Mr. Lanoux likes to scare people and leave out facts.

There’s a new website to give the people of Grant the truth, but it’s hard to get the information out when the signs for www.newsingrant.com continue to disappear. Also, pro-charter fliers were sent out with improper use of the city logo.

I am so tired of the harassment, lies and attitude coming from someone who is supposed to uphold the truth and laws of our city. It seems Grant has its own mafia with a self-appointed godfather.

Editor’s note: The letter writer is a Grant City Council member.

Charter Continued from page 1A propose a revised charter.

This is the first time a charter proposal has been put to a vote. Last year a referendum to disband the Charter Commission failed by two votes.

The proposed charter orders that the council must “keep, preserve and protect the right of every citizen to stable, farm, fish, hunt and preserve the rural nature of their land and waterways.” It also prohibits the extension of any new sewer or water lines into the city, unless approved in a citizen referendum.

State law currently doesn't allow charters to make the following requirements, but if the law ever changes to allow it, the proposed charter demands that any new development must average one residence per 10 acres and a minimum density of one house per 5 acres must be enforced.

Charter detractors don't object to those proposed charter restrictions, but say they are not needed because the city's comprehensive plan and many of its ordinances protect the city's current rural atmosphere. Charter supporters note that those ordinances and the comprehensive plan can be changed by a three-person council majority.

The most controversial section of the proposed charter allows citizen petitions to force referendums to decide ordinances and whether to remove council members from office. A group of five sponsors can start a petition to remove a council member or enact an ordinance on almost any city issue, excluding the tax levy or other financial matters.

To trigger a referendum, the petition must be signed by registered voters at least equal in number to 20 percent of the number of voters who voted in the last city election. If there is no upcoming regular election scheduled, a special

election can be called.

Detractors worry that this provision could lead to frequent special elections, at the city's expense. Because special elections often have low turnout, there also is concern that a small percentage of citizens would be making these decisions.

Other notable regulations in the proposed charter include: • The Planning Commission (an advisory body to the council) will be reestablished and will have seven members. Three-year appointments are made by the City Council on a three-fifths vote and commissioners can be removed by a four-fifths vote.

• City Council, Planning Commission and Charter Commission meetings must be video recorded.

• A public comment period must be held at the beginning of every City Council, Planning Commission and Charter Commission meeting.

• If a proposed ordinance fails to receive council majority approval, a motion to reconsider the vote can only occur within one week of the initial vote.

• If the council wants to sell any city-owned land, it must publish public notice of the proposed sale and a fourfifths vote is required for approval. A petition signed by a number of residents equal to 2 percent of the number who voted in the last state election can force the sale to be put to a referendum.

• The council must allow the Charter Commission and community and recreation groups to use the Town Hall and other city facilities; the council can assess a fee and impose “reasonable conditions.”

• If the charter is adopted, it can be amended only by a referendum vote.

out on a street corner for a weekend collecting donations to fill a large truck full of toilet paper for the White Bear Area Emergency Food Shelf. In 2013, Loeks, Ron Hawkins and Justin Nelson walked from Duluth to White Bear Lake and collected pledges to buy an ATV for their fire department to use for grass fires and water rescues.

This Saturday the group will be making its fifth annual walk around Bald Eagle Lake. This year they'll be collecting funds for their trip.

his daughter is a choreographer.

Perhaps the biggest name Wollan has ever worked with is Dolly Parton. He’s directed a holiday show at her theme park for a number of years and also a show about Parton’s upbringing that stars members of the Parton family.

Later this month he’s headed back to Dollywood to direct a reimagining of “A Christmas Carol” that includes a hologram of Dolly Parton playing the Ghost of Christmas Past.

After that, without even a day off, the St. Anthony resident is scheduled to direct the Plymouth Playhouse production of “Christmas My Way.” He might slow down his travel schedule a bit in coming years as he hits traditional retirement age, but he has no plans to fully retire anytime soon.

“When you love what you do you never want to stop doing it,” he said.

There is one item on his bucket list for when his directing schedule is less hectic: go on a cruise. His directing gigs have taken him all around the country, but he’s never found the time to vacation aboard a cruise ship.

Last year their collection funded accessories for the new ATV. In prior years they've fundraised for organizations such at the Regions Hospital Burn Center.

The group also will be selling another calendar this year featuring photos of first responders from across the region. The 2016 edition will be available at WBLFD Station No. 1 and at Hisdahl's by the end of the month.

Proceeds will go to charities that support law enforcement officers and their families.

Ponies, Wagner run down Bears

by Mark Aguirre Contributing Writer STILLWATER — It was a tale of two teams going opposite directions Friday when White Bear Lake football visited Stillwater.

One thing for certain, Pony running back Stephen Wagner was going in one direction — north to south.

And he was doing that quite well.

The Stillwater senior running back motored for 216 yards and four touchdowns in a 40-6 defeat over the Bears, out-gaining the White Bear Lake offense (212 total yards) by himself.

The win marked the third straight East Metro Blue Division victory in a row for coach Beau LaBore's club, while the Bears stumbled for the fifth consecutive time.

East Ridge (6-0, 6-1) and Woodbury (5-1, 6-1) are dueling for top spot in the division, followed by Cretin-Derham Hall (4-2, 5-2), Stillwater (4-2, 4-3), Mounds View (3-3, 4-3), Roseville (1-5, 1-6), White Bear Lake (1-5, 1-6) and Forest Lake (0-6, 0-7).

Stillwater and Wagner were off to the races thanks to a 13-0 first-quarter lead. They led 20-0 at the break, and 40-0 after three quarters.

Pony quarterback Muff Hoefferle found Joey Costa for a 25-yard touchdown in the opening quarter, and Wagner had scoring runs of 2 and 71 yards in quarter two.

He capped his scoring with touchdown runs of 20 yards and 1 yard in the third quarter, before defensive back Tanner Lau scooped up a Bear fumble and returned it 25 yards for a score and 40-0 Stillwater cush-

ion.

White Bear Lake averted a shutout with a five-yard touchdown pass from Tristin Dacus to Gage Johnson with just 1 second left in the game.

The Pony defense held Bear running back Jessiah Majest to just 29 yards on 14 attempts. White Bear quarterback Carter Kaun was 9 for 21 passing for 61 yards, Dacus 3 for 5 for 28 yards and Hoefferle 9 for 14 for 109 yards.

Carter added 46 yards rushing on 17 carries. Sam Broberg had four catches for 42 yards for the Bears, and Costa finished with three grabs for 45 yards for Stillwater.

The Bears entertain Roseville Friday night. The Raiders were toppled 41-13 by East Ridge last week after losing to Cretin on the last play of the game the week before.

Zephyr soccer logs 4-0 homecoming shutout

Wolfpack strikes quick to tackle Zephyrs 42-14

by Mark Aguirre Contributing Writer MAHTOMEDI — ParkCottage Grove quarterback Brendan Beaulieu proved to be a passing fancy, directing his team to a convincing 42-14 triumph over host Mahtomedi in a East Metro Red Division matchup Friday.

The Wildcat senior threw for 240 yards and a pair of touchdowns, completing 17 passes in 22 attempts. He also had a rushing touchdown.

Park was in control from the outset. It tore out to a 21-0 first quarter lead, led 28-14 at the

break and made it to 35-14 at the end of three quarters.

The Wolfpack rolled up a 378-225 advantage in total yards, restricting the Zephyrs to 127 yards on the ground and just 98 through the air.

Jalen Frye scored both Mahtomedi touchdowns in the second quarter, ending with 112 yards on 16 carries. Mahtomedi quarterback Jared Johnson was 11 for 20 passing for 98 yards.

Andy Voyen had five catches for 33 yards.

Evan Reyes, Jack Heinsch, Spencer Scott and Nick Bonine paced the Zeph defense in tackles.

The Park victory enabled it to keep abreast with St. Thomas Academy and South St. Paul in the division race. All have 6-1 records. North St. Paul (5-2) is alone in fourth, followed by Mahtomedi (4-3), Simley (4-3), Hastings (2-5), Henry Sibley (1-6), Tartan (1-6) and Hill-Murray (0-7).

The Zephyrs close out the regular season portion of their schedule Friday night against visiting Simley.

Park-Cottage Grove is at North St. Paul, South St. Paul travels to HillMurray and St. Thomas is at Sibley.

Junior Dylan James (No. 16) guides one past the Hill-Murray goalie.

MAHTOMEDI — The Zephyr boys' soccer team gave its homecoming crowd plenty to cheer about in a 4-0 win over Hill-Murray Oct. 1. Senior Captain Logan Morrison started the scoring with a penalty kick and scored his second goal minutes later on a pass from freshman Helio De La Torre.

De La Torre then scored before halftime on a feed from junior Dylan James.

In the second half, Morrison's corner

was headed back across the goal by senior Captain Tyler Pieper, then James finished with a nifty volley into the net. The Zephyrs kept the Hill-Murray keeper busy all night.

Mahtomedi dropped its match to St. Thomas Academy 3-0 earlier in the week. Its record is now 9-3-1, with away games at Hastings and Henry Sibley remaining to finish the regular season.

MINNEAPOLIS — The White Bear Lake women’s cross country team got a good look at the Section 4 cross country course when it competed Sept. 25 at the Griak Invitational, a mega race hosted by the University of Minnesota. The Bears finished 21st of 49 teams.

Coach Patty Percival was pleased with the team’s performance and felt it finished as planned. The coaches described the field as the strongest ever seen at the Griak.

Teams came from many states outside of Minnesota, and many individuals came without their entire teams. The Bears competed with a mix of seniors (Leighlin Ahlstrom and Isabel Brown), juniors (Keely Nistler and Tori Popham ) and young runners (Olivia Schwintek, Emily Brockberg, Maddie Verkerke, Josie Moor, Claire Larson and Hailey Miller).

“The whole team competed hard, working their way up throughout the race. It was a warm and humid day, not the best conditions, but we raced well,” said Pervival. “This team has a lot of potential.”

She said the experience should contribute toward a strong race at the Section 4 meet and an opportunity to race at state.

“The Section 5k course is easier than this one, so that race will feel easier,” she added.

The Bears' next varsity race is the Alexandria Invitational Oct. 10.

ARDEN HILLS — The White Bear Lake boys' soccer crew split a pair of Suburban East Conference games last week, capping the week with a 2-0 non-conference victory over visiting Prairie Seeds Academy Saturday.

The Bears were tipped 2-1 by host Mounds View to begin the week Sept. 29, blanking Forest Lake 1-0 on Thursday.

Cretin-Derham Hall (6-0-1, 8-4-1) has locked up the SEC title, but a quartet of clubs are still vying for second.

East Ridge (3-1-2, 8-2-3) and Stillwater (2-0-4, 6-2-6) are knotted for second place entering games this week.

Mounds View (3-2-1, 8-3-2) and Woodbury (3-2-1, 6-5-1) are tied for fourth, followed by Roseville (2-3-1, 8-4-1), Forest Lake (2-4, 8-4), White Bear Lake (1-5, 7-5-1) and Park-Cottage Grove (1-6, 5-9-1).

The Mustangs spotted White Bear a quick advantage.

After forcing Mounds View to turn the ball over in its own end, Bear junior forward Toheeb Adegoke collected a pass from William Moris, wheeled to gain some space to shoot and fired the ball past Mustang goalkeeper Austin Kunkel.

The marker came at the 32:54 mark, and gave White Bear a 1-0 edge.

Mounds View pressed to gain the equalizer, and had some golden opportunities to score. It either misfired or was turned away by Bear senior keeper Chad Granger, however. He came through with a great save from pointblank range missile by Mustang midfielder Till Konczak with 8:20 left before intermission.

Mounds View knotted the game with 3:10 left until halftime on a Konczak goal. It came after a steal by a teammate, and a long run down the left wing by Konczak.

Granger and the Bears were stung by a 35-yard second-

half goal by Mustang senior midfielder Austin Trapnell that turned out to be the game-winner.

Trapnell's goal came after the Mustangs had crashed the net. The ball was sent back to Trapnell, and his strong boot kissed the top of Granger's outstretched fingertips and into the net.

The marker at 29:35 gave the hosts their eventual winning margin, but not before Adegoke just missed on a pair of chances down the stretch. He banged the ball off the crossbar with 5:00 left, and fired over the top of the goal 1 minute later.

The Bears squared off against Roseville Tuesday (after press time) before for the SEC finale Thursday at East Ridge. They end the regular-season portion of their slate Saturday, with a non-conference game at Eden Prairie.

The first installment will be payable with interest at the rate of 3% per annum on the entire assessment from October 19, 2015 to December 31, 2016, and each subsequent installment will be payable with one year’s interest at said rate on all unpaid installments.

The general nature of the improvement is set forth as follows: The reclaiming of the existing roadway, subgrade corrections, and installation of a new bituminous surface, and any and all improvements incident thereto, in the area of the Town of White Bear described as follows: Leibel Street from Highway 61 to County Road J, all in Ramsey County, Minnesota.

The area proposed to be assessed for such improvement is every lot, piece or parcel of land benefitted within the area to be served by said improvement, to-wit: Leibel Street from Highway 61 to County Road J, Ramsey County, Minnesota.

The total amount to be assessed is $ 201,300.00.

An owner may appeal an assessment to the District Court pursuant to Section 429.081 of Minnesota Statutes, by serving Notice of the appeal upon the Chair of the Town Board or the Clerk of the Town within thirty (30) days after the adoption of the assessment and filing such Notice with the clerk of the District Court within ten (10) days after service upon the Town Board Chair or Town Clerk providing a written objection signed by the affected property owner is filed with the municipal clerk prior to the assessment hearing or presented to the presiding officer at the hearing. Sections 435.193 to 435.195 provide that a Town making a special assessment may, at its discretion, defer the payment of that special assessment for any homestead property owner by a person 65 years of age or older form whom it would be a hardship to make the payments.

The Town of White Bear has elected to defer some special assessments and has adopted Ordinance No. 53 establishing the standards and guidelines.

Dated: September 21, 2015.
