The data from the report comes from 2018 and was compiled by United Way Wisconsin for the 2020 ALICE report. ALICE stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed and describes households earning more than the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) but less than the states’s basic cost of living.

Gov. issues mask mandate, sheriff responds JONATHAN RICHIE SENTINEL EDITOR

Since Saturday everyone in the state is required to wear a mask whenever indoors and not in their home. Following Governor Tony Evers executive order sheriff’s across the state

including Burnett County gave a statement regarding enforcement of the mask mandate.

“Gov. Tony Evers today declared a Public Health Emergency and issued an Emergency Order requiring individuals to wear face coverings when indoors and not

in a private residence, with some exceptions as clarified and defined in the order,” a press release stated last week. “The order is effective at 12:01 a.m. on Saturday, August 1, 2020, and will expire on September 28, 2020 or by a subsequent superseding order.”

‘If people need help, the first step is calling 2-1-1.’

Board votes down resolution for more local control JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

“Right now the state has these powers, what this resolution is doing is asking Madison to make a law to change that so we, at the county level can make those decisions,” County Chairman Don Taylor said when attempting to explain a resolution.

The resolution on the agenda titled, “In support of Wisconsin State Legislature working with County Government for the health, safety, protection and welfare of Wisconsin,” was defeated 14-7.

The Wisconsin Legislature has the ability to approve things like Gov. Tony Evers Safer-at-Home order. This resolution, according to Taylor,

would give County Governments a say in the process.

A number of people told the board they did not agree with the resolution. They brought up that Burnett County is not the same as Dane or Milwaukee County and they shouldn’t be treated the same.

resolution would be to support a law to give county government more power with these decisions.

Opposition to the resolution stated that there is a small amount of cases in the county, even though they have doubled in the last two weeks. They also spoke of personal freedoms.

“This is political, and we’ve gone too far,” one speaker said. “Don’t think about the pandemic, think about the loss of liberty.”

Another person said churches are under the power of God and that the county and/or state government have no control over them.

Opposition to the resolution also came from county board members.

Gene Olson said with churches listed in the last paragraph the resolution goes against the U.S. Constitution and freedom of religion.

Before the final vote on the resolution the board voted to strike the last paragraph of the resolution that some thought infringed on constitutional rights. It was taken out and still did not pass because of perceived overreaching status by a number of board members.

It read, “Be it further resolved, that County governments, via their health departments, should be given the authority to determine the safety of and regulate: Public and private gatherings of people; the opening and closing of businesses, churches, schools and other physical gathering spaces in the public sphere; and the wearing of masks.”

There was also a false claim made during the public comment section that stated Burnett County Health Department workers will be allowed to make sweeping decisions about county residents without them being held accountable like elected officials.

Taylor corrected this by stating the County Board of Supervisors makes these decisions “with the guidance of Public Health.”

The Sentinel reported on this meeting via zoom. The meeting was supposed to be held in the Highway Shop, however, it was moved back to the Government Center where there is much less seating available to practice social distancing.

The meeting concluded shortly before Gov. Evers announced a statewide mandate on wearing masks starting Aug. 1.

Supervisor Gerry Pardun said after the vote, “So this resolution would have returned power to the county board.”

“That’s correct and this body just voted it down,” Taylor concluded.

put out a reminder for people to take personal responsibility for your health. We are very concerned with the health of our county and would like this pandemic to end just as fast as everyone,” Sheriff Tracy Finch said in a social media post. “My staff has been extremely busy during these crazy summer months. We have been inundated with criminal investigations, drug cases, traffic crashes, burglaries, mental health issues, etc. We do not have the time or staff to directly respond to calls for service for civil violations of the mask order.

Instead of calling 911 to report people not wearing masks, the sheriff is asking people to Burnett County Public Health continues to monitor the situation in Burnett County. They reported on Monday afternoon there are 19 cases of of the virus with six people recovering, 1,486 negative cases and 114 cases being monitored.

“Eventually we will get through this. I cannot be more proud of our public, as well as my staff, while navigating through a global pandemic,” Finch concluded.

Other area sheriff offices have been more direct.

Washburn County Sheriff Dennis Stuart said the law was “government overreach and unconstitutional on many levels.”

Polk County Sheriff Brent Waak said his department will not take any enforcement action in regards to the mask mandate.

STATEWIDE “This order requires every Wisconsinite 5 years or older to wear a face covering or mask whenever they are out in public and are indoors or in an public enclosed space like an outdoor bar or a taxi,” Evers said in his weekly democratic radio address. “While our local health departments have been doing a heck of a job responding to this pandemic in our communities, the fact of the matter is, this virus

METRO CREATIVE

doesn’t care about any town, city, or county boundary.”

In Wisconsin, there are a total of 55,328 positive cases with almost 45,000 recovered with 9,866 active case. The state has reported 949 total deaths.

Evers continued to explain the importance of the mask mandate.

“It doesn’t care what side of the county line you live on, and frankly, folks, this piecemeal approach is not working. We need to get back to working together statewide to flatten the curve and to prevent the spread of this virus. So I am calling on Wisconsinites to stick to their Wisconsin values of kindness, empathy, and respect and to wear a mask whenever you are out and about,” Evers said. “The most important thing you can do is serve as an example to those around you by wearing a mask or face covering, practicing physical distancing, and following best safety practices.”

Wisconsin State Assembly Speaker Robin Vos (R-Rochester) released a statement about the mandate. He has previously stated local efforts to control the spread of COVID-19.

“I understand the necessity of doing all that we can to control the spread of COVID-19. We all know it’s serious. People have lost loved ones, businesses are struggling to survive and this ‘new normal’ for families is stressful and exhausting, “ Vos said. “Local governments have been responding appropriately and increasing precautionary measures as needed. But Wisconsin shouldn’t have a one-size-fits-all mandate. It doesn’t build public support when there are questions surrounding the metrics and the constitutionality of this mandate.

“It’s disappointing that yet again Governor Evers has chosen to not communicate or work with the legislature,” Vos said. “There are certainly constitutional questions here; I would expect legal challenges from citizen groups.”

“The data is what drives our decisions, and that data tells us we have significant community spread in Wisconsin and need to take statewide action,” said DHS Secretary-designee Andrea Palm. “Community spread means that any interaction out in the community can

mean exposure, and because people can spread COVID-19 without symptoms or even knowing they are sick, we need to take universal precautions in order for wearing face coverings to be effective.”

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, the medical and scientific community continues to learn more about the virus, including how to best prevent its transmission. Recent scientific studies show that wearing face coverings is very effective in preventing the spread of COVID-19.

“Staying home, limiting interactions, practicing physical distancing, and washing your hands thoroughly are still the most effective ways to stop the spread,” said Dr. Ryan Westergaard, Wisconsin’s Chief Medical Officer and the State Epidemiologist for Communicable Diseases.

“But we learn something new about this virus every day. A growing number of scientific studies tell us that face coverings, when used correctly and consistently by a large percentage of the community, are extremely effective for preventing the spread of COVID-19 through respiratory droplets.”

WORKING POOR: ALICE Report says 23% of county is ‘working poor’ CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

improvements for ALICE households were improving. The state used to have 38% of households falling below the ALICE threshold.

United Way refers to this as the ALICE threshold. In Wisconsin, 549,313 (~23%) are ALICE and another 262,960 (~11%) households fall below the FPL.

The ALICE Report states the cost of living in Burnett County is $20,668 for an individual and $64,698 for a household of four. The FPL is $12,140 for an individual and $25,100 for a family of four.

This means that Burnett County is right in line with the state average of 23% of households are ALICE and 14% are defined as poverty households.

Ann Searles is executive director for United Way St. Croix Valley. She told the Sentinel that ALICE households are defined as the “working poor.”

“These are families or individuals that don’t have enough money, monthly, to make ends meet.” Searles said. “They often have multiple jobs and have tough choices to make. ‘Do I pay my rent this month?’

Searles said the United Way runs a Food Bank Hudson. They are expecting a 30% - 60% increase in demand for food because of COVID-19.

“If people need help the first step is calling 2-1-1,” Searles said. “Anyone can call that phone number to get help and resources they need.”

Siren unveils summary of proposed plan JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

The Siren School board is still working on their plan for how to re-open schools.

They held a meeting for families and staff at Crooked Lake Park to discuss the proposed plan.

The draft of the plan given to attendees was one-page front and back with limited details.

Darrell Imhoff, Siren associate principal said the plan was over 40-pages and didn’t want to give parents all of that information at once.

The district plans to open up for students five days a week with contingency plans for half the students to be at school on two days and the other half the other two days. They also have a plan if all learning needs to go back to virtual.

The plan, which members of the school board said was a first draft, states all students in grades 6-12, all staff and all visitors will be required to wear face coverings.

Students from 4K through fifth grade will wear masks when physically distancing is not possible.

Siren’s plan also includes staggering traffic flow in hallways, installing plexiglass barriers throughout school, rearrange classrooms for social distancing.

There will also be new guidelines in place for students on busses, inside the cafeteria.

A number of concerned parents spoke during the meeting asking about the need to have children in the classroom. Others spoke about needing to also keep the School board president Mark Pettis said this is an ongoing process and that there will most likely be more meetings to the discussion on how to keep the school safe.

Lavender – here, there and everywhere

W

ell, it finally happened. I ran out of toilet paper and was left with a box of tissues sitting atop the empty roll in my bathroom.

I had an interesting experience when I got home with my purchase, but I’ll get back to that.

But first let’s discuss smell. No, not that smell – that would be crass.

They say scent is the strongest link to memory of all our senses. I believe it. I love the smell of fresh baked cookies, takes me back to eating handfuls with a big glass of milk.

And now I have the love handles and strong bones to prove it.

Smells can take us back to a specific time in our lives. They can be good like cookies, although they Sentinel can also be not so good.

I also get triggered into a slight Editor terror by the smell of freshly cut Jonathan Richie grass. As a kid, my brother would practice shot put in the backyard, I had to push-mow that section and it was murder on my ankles.

There are a variety of smells that take me back to my childhood. Any time I cut myself I think back to this circular red tin my parents had and my dad would open it up and the musky smell would assault my senses.

In that same vein there are smells, mostly unpleasant ones, that take me back to my early 20s and questionable decisions in college.

Where was I, oh yeah, toilet paper shopping. I was at the store grabbing a bunch of different things when I remembered at home a box of tissues is resting where the toilet paper belongs. So, I needed to buy that.

I find the aisle, it’s surprisingly almost fully stocked, I grabbed the biggest package for the smallest price. It’s toilet paper, the science is almost perfect so there’s nothing on the packaging I need to read. Right?

WRONG! I get home to find out that my newly purchased toilet paper is scented with lavender. Why, is my first and only question. I deduce that it’s sprayed with something to give it that lavender smell.

Lavender or any scented toilet paper is… asinine (pun intended).

I don’t understand it.

Am I living in the world where, like a dog, people are constantly smelling my butt to check my scent?

No, I’m a human who knows how to use toilet paper properly so I don’t need it scented.

Isn’t that the point of toilet paper? If you use it properly you don’t need to worry about the smell?

And if you’re that bad at using the restroom – you might want to switch to baby wipes.

But don’t flush those down the toilet! It’s not safe.

I get that there was a shortage, but I fully believe lavender toilet paper is the overcorrection that will lead our great country straight into socialism.

I support sanity in the bathroom. End scented toilet paper now, before it’s too late!

ello! I was able to take most of last week off to putter around the house and take care of some tasks that have gone undone for too long. The weather was great and I had a great time. I may even do it again.

I casually tuned into the news and saw the virtual testimony of the CEOs of Apple, Facebook, Google and Amazon. It was entertaining to see bipartisan bashing of the folks who essentially have control of a large block of information and our economy.

I doubt anything will come of the testimony beyond some campaign sound bites. It’s too little, too late to make a difference, unless there’s enough political will to force the smashing of the companies into smaller ones.

The majority of digital advertising dollars in the nation are spent with Google and Facebook.

Newspapers are now seeking to get some help through the tax code to help fund news operations, the most vital aspect of our operations. The Local Journalism Sustainability Act (HR 7640) has been introduced into Congress.

Last month I saw an interview with Walter Hussman, Jr., publisher of the Arkansas Democrat Gazette.

— Adolph Ochs, 1858-1935 “Impartiality means reporting, editing and delivering the news honestly, fairly, objectively, and without personal opinion or bias.

“Credibility is the greatest asset of any news medium, and impartiality is the greatest source of credibility.

“To provide the most complete report, a news organization must not just cover the news, but uncover it.

It must follow the story wherever it leads, regardless of any preconceived ideas on what might be most newsworthy.

“The pursuit of truth is a noble goal of journalism.

But the truth is not always apparent or known immediately. Journalists’ role is therefore not to determine what they believe at that time to be the truth and reveal only that to their readers, but rather to report as completely and impartially as possible all verifiable facts so that readers can, based on their own knowledge and experience, determine what they believe to be the truth.

“When a newspaper delivers both news and opinions, the impartiality and credibility of the news organization can be questioned. To minimize this as much as possible there needs to be a sharp and clear distinction between news and opinion, both to those providing and consuming the news. “’A newspaper has five constituencies, including first its readers, then advertisers, then employees, then creditors, then shareholders. As long as the newspaper keeps those constituencies in that order, especially its readers first, all constituencies will be well served.’”

CAPITOL REPORT

WILD CHOW

Legal tab for GOP lawmakers’ private attorneys nears $4.8 million The tab for private attorneys hired by Republican lawmakers in Wisconsin has now hit nearly $4.8 million for this legislative session, fueled recently by fights over Gov. Tony Evers’ orders during the COVID-19 pandemic and a string of election lawsuits.

The tab jumps to $5.5 million when legal bills from the Wisconsin Elections Commission and Evers are added.

The rising legal bills underscore how often Republicans have turned to private attorneys since Democratic Attorney General Josh Kaul took office. They gave themselves new powers during the 2018 lame-duck session to intervene in various suits involving the Department of Justice.

In the lawsuits filed over the extraordinary session, Kaul declined to represent the governor or Legislature, saying it would be a conflict of interest. Kaul also has been generally representing Evers in the suits emanating out of the April 7 election.

Still, Republicans ‘The Legislature have hired legal counsel in the eleccontinues tion law cases even to want to with the state and concentrate national Republican parties involved in power and the suits. The suits were generally filed control in

by Democrats and itself and Democratic-leaning siphon power groups. GOP lawmakers’ legal bills have alaway from ready topped $830,000 the attorney in those Democratic suits and will climb general and the higher as a federal judge weighs a request governor.’ from Democrats to make changes to the Doug Poland November election to Attorney accommodate voters amid the pandemic. A trial is scheduled for early August in the cases.

Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, R-Rochester, and Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald, R-Juneau, blamed Democrats for the GOP

Biking for egg bake Some people bike for beer, I bike for egg bake.

I’m really close with my brother and my sister. Our personalities are a lot alike and we do many of the same things such as cooking, reading books about health and fitness, and mountain biking.

All three of us are mountain biking junkies. Over the last couple years, we’ve been searching out new trails across Minnesota and Wisconsin, and Oklahoma (That’s where my brother lives) and trying them out.

Many mountain bikers like Wild Chow to share a beer after a hard Lisa Erickson ride. My brother has two little kids, so we try to ride very early in the morning before they wake up. “Biking for beer” is out of the question. Mountain biking is hard work and burns a ton of calories. When we get home or back to where we’re staying, we’re hungry.

Egg bake is the perfect breakfast after a big ride.

“As long as Democrats continue to use the courts as a place to further their liberal agenda, and as long as the governor allows his administration to break state laws, we will be forced to hire lawyers to defend Wisconsin law,” Vos said. “The frivolous lawsuits and costly political games played by Democrats are frustrating and should stop.”

Fitzgerald added, “If Governor Evers and his liberal allies would stop breaking the law or suing us, we wouldn’t need to hire lawyers.”

Neither statement addressed questions posed to the leaders about why GOP lawmakers hired private attorneys in cases where the state and national Republican parties were already involved. They also didn’t address whether they were considering cost-saving measures to offset the rising legal bills with the state facing a drop in revenues due to the economic impact of COVID-19.

The overall budget for the Legislature for 2019-21 is $153.9 million in general purpose revenue. But the branch receives a sum sufficient appropriation, meaning there’s no cap on its spending.

Doug Poland, an attorney who’s represented Democratic groups in various lawsuits in which GOP lawmakers have sought to intervene, said the rising legal tab is a direct result of Republicans giving themselves the power to intervene in cases as part of the package they approved in the 2018 executive session.

“The Legislature continues to want to concentrate power and control in itself and siphon power away from the attorney general and the governor,” he said.

We understand you are very busy, but we hope you can attend the screening with your child. If your child was born between September 1st, 2016 and February 28th, 2017, please call the Elementary School at 715-463-2320 to schedule a time for your child’s screening.

Thank you.

WEEKLY WAG

A room with a view AN OUTDOORSMAN’S JOURNAL MARK WALTERS

Hello friends, About a half a dozen times over the last 31-years I have written a column where I climb up in a tree in a remote area and write about what I see over a period of about 20 hours. This week I did just that, I drove over to the Durand area and canoed into some backwaters of the Chippewa River, went looking for deer sign in an area that I have been to before, set up a portable deer stand and had a very cool experience being an observer.

I kept notes and that is how this week’s column is written.

Wednesday, July 29 High 80, low 50 Before I set up my stand which would be in a birch tree that is on a natural funnel between a forest a marsh and a ridgeline, I put out two trail cameras and was pleasantly surprised when I observed a heck of a lot of deer sign.

Next I made three trips from my canoe to where I would put up my stand and then I hung my stand using climbing sticks. For food I had carrots, green beans, an apple

and a bottle of Gatorade.

On an experience like this you have to think heat, I wore sandals and shorts to set up and chill, lots of cloths for a long night of heavy dew as the base of my tree is literally in water.

3:01 p.m. a large doe just came down from the ridgeline, crossed the creek, and walked about 30-feet from me, she knew something was wrong.

4:45 I had a friend climbing my tree. It is a 4.5 foot snake and it was amazing to watch how easily it can literally go straight up a tree. Fox snakes are good swimmers as well and when my buddy saw me, which was just before I was about to give him a get out of here warning, he slowly eased his way back down the tree. It looked just like a rattle snake and until I saw it’s tail, I had my concerns.

6:17 The marsh grass and brushy trees are so dense here that in many cases I do not see deer until they are within 30-yards. That was the case when a velvet horned 5-point buck appeared out of nowhere directly below me. What was really cool is that in every deer situation, I heard them in the

7

News and Updates from the Humane Society of Burnett County

water before I saw them.

There are hundreds of Monarchs for me to watch and I have to tell you something, I hate it when I hit them with my truck. Monarch’s in my opinion are the ultimate survivor.

9:12 and 9:27 deer underneath my tree before I could see them and in both cases, they were not happy with me and did their warning snorts for a good five minutes.

Wanna be humbled by your quarry, have a deer tell the world that you are in the woods.

Here is where my intellectual level is a bit weak. I have pretty good clothing to stop the skeets and I also have bug spray. Because I am me, I decided not to use the spray and after dark they decided I should be dinner.

10:53 another deer directly below me, it knows something is wrong, humbled again!

11:25 I just had a skeet crawl deep in my ear. I cannot squash it with my finger, I can feel every move it makes. I took a soft branch from a leaf, went exploring, and musta got it. Live bugs in the ear drum area are a challenge to one’s sanity.

11:30 coyotes are howling!

2:27 I just saw my 3rd falling star and would see one more. I am having a difficult time staying comfortable due to the dampness in the air which is soaking my cloths. I put on my rain suit, which is no easy task in the dark on a deer stand. This move made the rest of my night much more comfortable.

3:30 the first sign of daylight was observed and at this time the birds started singing, it would take about two hours for night to become day.

Something that amazed me was that I did not get tired. I stayed in the tree until 10:00 a.m. at which time I had been up for 27- hours and by the time I got home I had been awake for 33.

This experience could be done by anyone and let me tell you, if you pick the right place, it can be extremely interesting and a neat challenge.

I had so much time to think and observe that I realized exactly where I want to put my stand when I come back in two months with my compound bow.

Push yourself, you will be better off in the long run! Sunset.

HSBC has a couple of guys who are looking for someone to pal around with. Whether you are a cat fanatic or a dog person, the shelter has a pet to meet your desires!

Koda is one chill dude. This 60-pound black and tan hound mix is a mellow fellow who makes ffriends wherever he is.

This two-year-old was T p previously abandoned, w which is a shame b because Koda is an a amiable and laid-back g guy. He is housetrained, g good with kids, willing tto please, and likes tto hang out with his p people.

Another cool cat waiting for a fur-ever family is Tigger. This medium-haired adult male is a handsome guy, with green eyes and light orange fur with white markings. Tigger is not just a pretty face; he is also a lover! Friendly and easy-going, he gives off a relaxed vibe with his pals; and everyone is his pal! Tigger would be a great addition to any family, and we sure would like to see him fill out a bit!

Dental care is essential, not only for humans but for our furry friends!

Anyone who has ever suffered from a toothache knows Tigger what a relief it can be to have the problem resolved. In the past couple of months, Star’s Fund covered the cost of several residents’ dental needs. However, we still have a few pets that would benefit from cleanings and extractions.

Donations to Star’s Fund are earmarked for these types of medical expenses. It is a vital piece of HSBC’s dedication to the health and wellbeing of the homeless pets of Burnett County.

Two options for new jail following analysis JONATHAN RICHIE SENTINEL EDITOR

There are two options for a new jail in Burnett County. An architecture firm gave two estimates spanning between $15 million and $21 million for a potential new jail.

The public safety facility committee began meeting in late 2019. Their goal was to take a look at the current jail, sheriff’s office and health and human service facilities and then make a plan following an analysis put together by BWBR, an architecture firm out of St. Paul.

Both options would have a pod setup for the jail in-

stead of a linear setup which is what the jail currently has in the jail that was built in 1983.

A pod setup would have a centralized control room where jailors can see the inmates with the cells surrounding the control center.

Option 1 for a new jail would include new jail housing, updated sheriff offices including a new lobby and jail administration building, and updated health and human services offices. The estimate came in at $21,101,000.

The second option is similar but would not include the expanded sheriff offices or the public lobby. That estimate was for $14,992,000.

Both options would require the new facility to be built northwest of the Government Center and would also require a re-configuration of the parking lot.

BWBR representatives told the County Board that they believe these prices are the “maximum amount� the county can expect to spend. They include construction costs, furnishing costs and contingency costs.

Supervisors realized that the construction costs are easy, the difficulty will be with keeping the facility

Design plans for Jail would include a new housing unit and new office space for the sheriff’s office.

maintained and employed.

BWBR put together an executive summary on the current jail. They described the facility as “antiquated� and “inadequate to meet the needs of growing population.�

The Burnett County Jail has 26 beds. The population often exceeds 50 and Sheriff Tracy Finch said before the virus they were averaging 70-80 inmates.

The transportation costs associated with inmates being housed in separate facilities across the region has been rising over the last few years. Anytime an inmate is housed of the county and has a court date coming up they have the right to be in the courtroom in person – even if it is just for a status conference that may take five minutes.

Jail Administrator Mark Schmidt has told the public safety committee on numerous occasions that inmates, “like getting out and going for a ride.�

Burnett County spent over $250,000 in 2018 for inmates out of county costs, according to Sheriff Tracy Finch. In early 2019 Finch explained to the public safety committee that they went almost $30,000 over their budget.

She said they were budgeted for $210,000 in out of county costs in 2018 and spent $259,437. “But if we follow this trend, it’s going to cost us around $400,000 in total for 2019,� Finch said last year.

Finch told the Sentinel the sheriff’s office in 2020 has spent over $200,000 which includes transportation costs.

Sheriff Tracy Finch said that another part of housing is transportation of inmates to and from Burnett County. Burnett County has inmates in Barron, Douglas and Polk County. They sometimes use Bayfield County Jail which is about a 235 mile round-trip.

Those longer trips require two officers for transportation. In 2018, according to Finch, Burnett County Sheriff road deputies did 61 transports and correction officers did 2017 transports.

The next step in the process is sending the public safety facilities analysis to the infrastructure committee and get their input.

Pod-style housing is being considering for a new jail. It would allow staff to monitor inmates from a central location.

DNR board will reconsider deer hunt amid meeting allegations ASSOCIATED PRESS

MADISON—The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources board is set to reconsider changes next week that it made to the fall deer hunt amid allegations that four members violated open meeting laws when they drafted them ahead of a vote.

The seven-member board adopted the 2020 season framework during a meeting June 24. They voted 5-2 to adopt an amendment reducing antlerless quotas that citizen advisory committees wanted in 11 northern Wisconsin counties, including Bayfield, Burnett, Douglas, Florence, Langlade, Lincoln, Marinette, Oconto, Oneida, Sawyer and Vilas. The board posted notice Friday of its planned special meeting to reconsider the vote.

The move comes after former board members David Clausen, Fred Clark and John Welter wrote a letter to current board Chairman Fred Prehn on July 13 alleging some board members shared the amendment among themselves the day before the meeting in a walking quorum, a violation of Wisconsin’s open meetings law.

Clausen wrote in a formal complaint that Prehn, Greg Kazmier-

METRO CREATIVE

zski, Terry Hilgenberg and Bill Bruins made up the walking quorum.

Kazmierski developed the amendment at Bruins’ request to review hunter complaints about low deer populations in northern counties, according to the complaint.

The amendment was never adequately noticed, amounting to another open meetings violation, according to the complaint. It remains unclear if Clausen had ever filed the complaint with anyone; he didn’t immediately return a voicemail Friday.

“Regardless . . . of whether an Open Meetings Law violation is substantiated, the public appearance of this action is counter to the spirit and intent of the Open Meetings Law, and it is counter to the tradition of openness that we as former members expect from the NRB,” the letter said.

Former Gov. Jim Doyle,

a Democrat, appointed Clausen and Welter to the board. Current Gov. Tony Evers, another Democrat, appointed Clark. Former Republican Gov. Scott Walker appointed Prehn, Kazmierzski Hilgenberg and Bruins.

Prehn didn’t respond to a message left with his answering service Friday afternoon. Kazmierski said in a telephone interview that the amendment was crafted the same way members have done it for decades. He said the board decided to reconsider the vote because Prehn and board members want to be free of any “process issues.”

Bruins called the allegations “a bunch of hooey.” He said members developed the amendment under the guidance of DNR attorneys. DNR spokeswoman Sarah Hoyle didn’t immediately respond to a message seeking comment.

Hilgenberg, for his part, called the accusations “ridiculous and unfounded.”

He said he never spoke to more than one member of the board at a time about the amendment and the former board members simply don’t like Walker’s appointees.

“It’s just something to try to create issues,” Hilgenberg said. “And we’ve got enough issues.”

Better Customer Service Tired of being herded like cattle through chain stores?

B

ig chain stores may offer slightly lower prices on some items —if you’re lucky — but one thing they’re almost universally criticized for is customer service.

If you want to be served by businesses that truly care about you, it’s best to find local stores that know their products and, more importantly, know how to treat people.

WEEK 2 OF 4 LOCAL SHOPPING

STATS

CLOSER RELATIONSHIPS The individuals that run and own local businesses could be your friends, neighbors, or even a relative. This relationship allows the consumer to forge an actual friendship and respect with the proprietor of the business. Small business owners generally go the extra mile to ensure you find what you need and that your needs are taken care of while you shop with them.

That professional relationship can open other doors to you that you will not get at other retailers. Many small business owners take great pride in serving their neighbors which lends them to being far more flexible than a corporate entity.

70% GREATER LOCAL ECONOMIC IMPACT

A 2004 study in Andersonville, Ind. showed that, per square foot of space, local firms had 70 percent greater local economic impact than chain firms.

By sourcing more of their supplies and products from local vendors, employing local people and keeping their profit close to home, these businesses contribute more to the local economy.

PEOPLE YOU KNOW The greatest treasures of the small businesses who bring all of these things

to a community are the owners. Unlike the rushed and harried seasonal workers at big chain stores, owners and employees of local shops are people you recognize from within the community.

This makes visiting their businesses more personal than a standard shopping trip. Staying local gives you an opportunity to establish relationships with shop owners who can come to know your preferences and will be able to help you more easily, leading to a relaxed, personal shopping experience.

MORE INVOLVED Many local business owners are also active in the town and nearby areas.

The man who helped you pick out the perfect present for your niece may be the same person who puts out a fire at a neighbor’s house. The hairdresser could be the one overseeing the next big seasonal festival. By supporting the livelihoods of these people, you in turn support their ability to give back to the community.

GOOD VALUE We all want to get a good value on the products we buy. But if the money you spend isn’t going to help your friends and neighbors locally, how much of a value is it really?

Before you buy that television, MP3 player, bookcase — or any other product of the sort — call up your local small business. Ask them if they have any price matching programs. Many businesses do, but the information is often posted on signs in the store that are overlooked by shoppers. That means there is a good chance you can get your product at a competitive price and still support your local business community.

Resisting the pull of out-of-town stores can be difficult, but the benefits of local shopping are worth staying close to home. Keeping money and consumer loyalty within the local economy helps create a community atmosphere, and that’s great for customer service.

Things I need to today… breathe in and out

Pastor Danny Wheeler Yellow Lake Lutheran

Jesus visits Martha and Mary along the way.

“Now as they went on their way, he entered a certain village, where a woman named Martha welcomed Jesus into her home. She had a sister named Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet and listened to what he was saying. But Martha was distracted by her many tasks; so she came to him and asked “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to do all the work by myself?”(Luke10:38-40).

Martha and Mary … “Martha, Martha you are worried and distracted by many things; there is need of only one thing,”(Luke 10: 41).

Aren’t we all in some ways a lot like Martha, distracted by many thing? Yet our heart is in

the right place. Martha was about her guest’s comfort; her ministry was one of hospitality and welcoming. Where would we be without people like her?

Mary was happy listening to Jesus, seated at the His feet. Jesus comes to us where we are in our busy life and invites us to come and sit with him for a while; rest your weary feet, listen and hear.

Just like he invited Martha from her many tasks to rest awhile. Maybe, just maybe, what we can learn from Mary and Martha is to stop, breathe, listen, and see the wonders all-around.

Jesus is saying to us today: “Come on and rest, let me take care of you.” Then in that moment

we become his guest. He invites us to stop for a moment. “I love you,” He says. This is the one thing we need to always remember.

We all live in a busy world. There are things to do and things to plan. When we stop to listen, to take a breath, and reflect, we remember who we are and that God is here and cares for us so very much.

Jesus loves you. God cares for us. We are after all a baptized child of God. Be at peace; God knows what we need even before we ask.
