additional milk volume. This equates to about 4,000 new dairy cows’ milk production each day.

Based on the Iowa State Dairy Association and Iowa State University analysis, this is valued as an annual economic impact to Luana and the surrounding area of

approximately $24,000 per cow.

It is further noted, that Swiss Valley already has a market for the new cheese production. The new production is expected to begin this winter, either late 2016 or early 2017 as the construction is completed and all new equipment is installed.

Arbor Day Marquette celebrated Arbor Day with the planting of six shade trees at the playground area of the Timber Ridge Estates Subdivision on Saturday, April 30. The hard-working crew of volunteers made sure that the project was completed before the rain came later in the morning. An Arbor Day observance is one of the four requirements for communities seeking the Tree City USA designation. This year Marquette will be working toward its 14th consecutive year as a Tree City USA community.

Stephen Saunders shares reflections on war in Vietnam The Vietnam War was brutal for those of us who fought it on the ground. Our military performed with tenacity and distinction little understood. Many people, however, blamed us warriors for an unpopular war waged halfheartedly and unsuccessfully from Washington. They clearly demonstrated what they thought of the war and those who fought it for them. Academia, the media, and the elites spurned our service while glorifying the enemy. Right had become wrong. Vocal and subtle slurs and jibes subjected Vietnam veterans to antagonism and loathing. The stigma tore open the wounds and spit on the graves of my buddies. These blows to my dignity as a young combat veteran remain tender even after fifty years.

I survived one solid year of war, then my countrymen shot me in the back. Fire of such caliber tore a jagged hole through me.

We were castaways, marked as crazed pariahs, lepers afflicted with a nitro-glycerine menace—“postVietnam syndrome” was the smear.

We were the refuse of a lost war, unexploded ordnance, duds to be sidestepped. Today those who branded us will not look us in the eye.

Vietnam veterans returned confused from the war in which we had invested our young lives and sought no return. Many reacted to the homegrown incoming fire like an in-country firefight—we went to ground. It jinxed a homecoming of the spirit. Peace is more than just the absence of war. I rode the brakes on my sensibilities and resolved not to squander a life that had been spared, eager to harness the opportunities of America the beautiful. My country right or wrong; I love her so­­—for keeps.

Contrary to the shrill scorn for Vietnam veterans­, most had met severe tests there and scored well.

Many years after the war, a placid pride crept into me. It balanced the comedown, embarrassment and guilt plaguing me from public disdain and because, unlike so many I had known, I survived with all working body parts and a full tank of blood. It joined other unspoken attitudes shaped by wartime. I harbor no regrets that I fought there or for what I did there, but bear some for what I did not do.

As a 19-year-old in Vietnam, I took for granted the vivid camaraderie borne of war’s wild circumstances. I was blind to many sentiments under death’s cold

stare. Later I learned that these attachments were priceless beyond compare. In Vietnam we haggard grunts supposed we were the lowest of wretches on the planet, but we never stood so tall.

A few of my platoon survivors of the war and its shameful aftermath gather in our old age, bonded in the past and in a powerful fellowship borne of the inexpressible experience of war. We know each other’s dark place. None can articulate the sentiment, but all feel its muscle. It is an elegy to and a celebration of forlorn sacrifices.

In 1967, as I left the “bush” for the last time, whopping chopper blades drowned my elated shout of “Airborne!” They lifted me upward, homeward, away from my rifle platoon forever. As the Huey slowly rose, my right arm went up in salute to those left behind, to those gone before, to all that we had been and done, to our teenage savvy of a world of suffering, injustice, evil and love—and to all that we had risked and endured that none can say. I was buoyant; the moment seemed as an ascent to heaven. But it was to be a low height. I would be anchored there always. The shooting stopped, but there was no cease-fire. I hold that salute. My body left that doomful place, but my youth and its unbroken heart never boarded that helicopter.

Luana City Council to install speed bump The Luana City Council met May 5th for its regular monthly meeting. The Public Works Superintendent informed the council of the cost for both rubber and plastic speed bump. After discussion the council voted to approve purchasing a rubber 2 ∏” tall speed bump and warning signs for north end of Church Street.

Kristi Hager, candidate for IA State District 56, introduced herself to the council. Hager expressed her priorities for both cities and Iowa’s future.

It was the consensus of the council to remove a dead tree located on boulevard at corner of

Truman and Burgess Street. The Public Works Supervisors will contact a company to cut down the tree and the town will then cut up and remove it.

Council members were informed that safety lights have been installed on a city vehicle. They also reviewed the updated Clayton County Hazardous Mitigation Plan and made necessary changes and set goals to

have items completed.

A motion to approve the renewal of the cigarette/ tobacco/ liquor

license for the Luana Tavern was also approved.

Monona City Council holds public hearing May 2, 2016 The Monona City Council met May 2 and held a public hearing concerning a proposed amendment to the Monona Urban Revitalization Area. Mayor Collins opened the public hearing at 6:06 P.M. Administrator Canton provided ‘Proof of Hearing Publication’ dated April 13, 2016 as documented

by The Outlook Newspaper.

Canton stated that after consideration at March 7, 2016 regular meeting the city council agreed to initiate the process for amending the Monona Property Tax Abatement Program under the Monona Urban Revitalization Plan. The Amendment to the Revitalization Plan will (i) update the language of the Revitalization Plan to match the current statutory requirements of the Code; (ii) extend or delete the expiration date; and (iii) update the tax abatement schedule for the residential property classification as follows: Residential Property Tax Exemption (Per Iowa Code) “All qualified real estate assessed as residential property is eligible to receive an exemption from taxation on the first $75,000 of actual value added by the improvements for a period of five (5) years”.

Along with the residential property tax exemption, city council also decided to delete the expiration date provision of the plan and further determined there would be no Property Tax Abatement for the following property classifications: Multi-Family Residential Property Commercial Property Industrial Property At the conclusion of explanation and having received no written or verbal objections, Mayor Collins closed the hearing at 6:11 P.M. The proposed 2016 Amended and Restated Urban Revitalization Plan for City of Monona Urban Revitalization Area as prepared by Amy Bjork of Dorsey & Whitney were reviewed in detail. Various provisions related to Eligible Improvements and Exemptions (specifically the residential property

tax exemption), Actual Value Added, Time Frame, Application Procedures and Approval of Applications were noted on page 3 of The Plan. After a brief discussion, it was the consensus of the council to approve the amended and restated plan. The amendment passed unanimously.

Council members voted to approve the First Reading of Ordinance No. 381-16 Amending Ordinance No. 257 Designation of the Business/Industrial and Residential District as a Revitalization Area. It was then moved by Blietz, seconded by Havlicek, that statutory rule requiring said ordinance to be considered and voted for passage at two City Council meetings prior to meeting at which it is to be finally passed be suspended and that said ordinance be regarded as having been considered and voted on for passage at two prior council meetings. The motion carried unanimously and the ordinance was approved.

A review was made of legal documents in conjunction with State Revolving Fund (SRF) Loan for financing Phase II Sanitary Sewer Improvements and Bulldog Boulevard Permeable Paver street surface improvements.

It was moved by Havlicek, seconded by Meyer, to Approve Resolution No. 2016-15 Authorizing and Approving a Loan and Disbursement Agreement and Providing for the Issuance and Securing the Payment of $1,815,000 Sewer Revenue Bonds. The motion passed unanimously.

A copy of ‘Notice of Application for Annexation’ as it appeared in The Outlook on Wednesday, April 27, 2016 was provided. Also made available was a copy of written Voluntary Annexation Request dated April 18, 2016 as submitted to the Monona City Council by Casey’s Marketing Company and authorized by Birdnow Chevrolet, Inc. The same notice was mailed directly to Clayton County Commissioners by city attorney Schiller. It was noted that city

council can legally take action at May 16, 2016 council meeting approving the annexation. The final step upon council approval is providing notification and obtaining subsequent concurrence with the Iowa Secretary of State.

City Administrator Canton distributed Iowa Code 368.11(3.)(m.) related to Annexation & Property Tax Exemptions was reviewed and discussed. He noted that Iowa Code has a provision that allows for an exemption from taxation of the following percentages of assessed valuation according to the following schedule: · First and Second Years, 75% · Third and Fourth Years, 60% · Fifth and Sixth Years, 45% · Seventh and Eighth Years, 30% · Ninth and Tenth Years, 15% Canton also explained that an alternative schedule may be adopted by the city council when they move forward with annexation of developed properties, however, an alternative schedule shall not allow a greater exemption than that provided by the code. The exemption shall be applied in the levy and collection of taxes. The provision may also allow for the partial provision of city services during time in which the exemption from taxation is in effect. If the city council provides for transition for imposition of city taxes against property in an annexation area, all property owners included in the annexation area must receive the transition upon completion of the annexation.

The permanent extension of sanitary sewer and water services to annexed properties was again discussed. It was acknowledged that timing and specific location of infrastructure extensions and connections would need to be determined prior to discussions with property owners. At the conclusion of comments, it was the consensus of the council to consult with Fehr Graham engineer Jon Biederman about appropriate routing of various infrastructure.

Natural gas has an excellent safety record, but faulty appliances, misuse and other incidents can cause a leak. To help detect leaks, we add an odorant to natural gas before sending it to our customers. Most people compare the odor to the smell of rotten eggs or some other distinctive odor.

If you think you smell natural gas: • Get everyone out of the building immediately — leave the door open as you exit.

• Once outside, call 911 or the emergency number below.

• As you leave, don’t touch light switches, electrical appliances, phones or doors and windows. A spark of static electricity could ignite a leak.

• Wait well away from the building for emergency personnel.

APRIL STUDENTS OF THE MONTH

Letter to the Editor

from front

Dr. Crispin Pierce points to need for further study Dr. Crispin Pierce, Associate Professor of Environmental Health, University of Wisconsin Eau Claire, has led studies on the potential risks of tiny particles (PM2.5) of airborne silica dust to those living in the vicinity of frac sand mining operations.

His peer reviewed work published in the November 2015 Journal of Environmental Health included four sampling sites near frac sand mining operations.

The study states, “Fine particulates have been identified by the U.S. EPA as a cause of cardiovascular and lung disease including lung cancer.” While crystalline silica is known to be a health risk to workers in industry, there has been few independent studies of the health effects to citizens living near frac sand mining operations.

Researchers took data from six nominal 24-hour ambient

air samples in a wide variety of weather conditions. Five of six samples had PM2.5 levels higher than corresponding DNR or MPCA regional background levels.

The study concluded “health departments and elected officials face unanswered questions about potential health risks” and proposes “the establishment of longer-term PM2.5 particulate monitoring….to protect public health.”

Pattison Sand of Clayton County, IA wants a zoning change now to support a proposed 764 acre underground mine expansion for use in 10-20 years. How can officials predict future community needs? How will venting of the mine affect the quality of life and health of neighbors? What are the other issues around this expansion proposal? It would be prudent for officials to refuse the zoning change for the present.

VMH recognizes National Hospital Week Veterans Memorial Hospital generates 193 jobs that add $10,699,598 to the Allamakee and northern Clayton county economy, according to the latest study by the Iowa Hospital Association.

In addition, Veterans Memorial Hospital employees by themselves spend $1,905,146 on retail sales and contribute $114,309 in state sales tax revenue.

The IHA study examined the jobs, income, retail sales and sales tax produced by hospitals and the rest of the state’s health care sector. The study was compiled from hospital-submitted data on the American Hospital Association’s Annual Survey of Hospitals and with software that other industries have used to determine their economic impact.

The study found that Iowa hospitals directly employ 71,348 people and create another 44,935 jobs outside the hospital sector. As

an income source, hospitals provide $4.3 billion in salaries and benefits and generate another $1.8 billion through other jobs that depend on hospitals.

In all, the Iowa health care sector, which includes offices of physicians, dentists and other health practitioners, nursing home and residential care, other medical and health services and pharmacies, contributes $15.5 billion to Iowa’s economy while directly and indirectly providing 312,821 jobs, or about one-fifth of the state’s total non-farm employment.

“With more than 300,000 jobs, health care is one of Iowa’s largest employers, and hospitals are by far the biggest contributor to that number,” said Kirk Norris, IHA president/CEO. “That impact carries through to local communities, where hospitals are often among the largest employers in Iowa cities and counties.”

Canton stated that after consideration at March 7, 2016 regular meeting the city council agreed to initiate the process for amending the Monona Property Tax Abatement Program under the Monona Urban Revitalization Plan. The Amendment to the Revitalization Plan will (i) update the language of the Revitalization Plan to match the current statutory requirements of the Code; (ii) extend or delete the expiration date; and (iii) update the tax abatement schedule for the residential property classification as follows: Residential Property Tax Exemption (Per Iowa Code) “All qualified real estate assessed as residential property is eligible to receive an exemption from taxation on the first $75,000 of actual value added by the improvements for a period of five (5) years”.

Along with the residential property tax exemption, city council also decided to delete the expiration date provision of the plan and further determined there would be no Property Tax Abatement for the following property classifications: Multi-Family Residential Property; Commercial Property; Industrial Property At conclusion of explanation and having received no written or verbal objections, Mayor Collins closed the hearing at 6:11 P.M. 5) Consideration of Amendment to Urban Revitalization Plan for the Monona Urban Revitalization Area: Proposed 2016 Amended and Restated Urban Revitalization Plan for City of Monona Urban Revitalization Area as prepared

by Amy Bjork of Dorsey & Whitney were reviewed in detail. Various provisions related to Eligible Improvements and Exemptions (specifically the residential property tax exemption), Actual Value Added, Time Frame, Application Procedures and Approval of Applications were noted on page 3 of The Plan. After brief discussion, it was consensus of council to approve the amended and restated plan.

6) Resolution No. 2016-13 Adopting the Amendment to the Plan for the Monona Urban Revitalization Area: Moved by Blietz, seconded by Havlicek, to Approve Resolution No. 2016-13 Adopting Amendment to the Plan for the Monona Urban Revitalization Area. Roll Call Vote: Ayes – Three. Nays – None.

9) Status of Annexation Process for Casey’s Building Site & Zoning District

Determination: Copy of ‘Notice of Application for Annexation’ as it appeared in The Outlook on Wednesday, April 27, 2016 was provided. Also made available was a copy of written Voluntary Annexation Request dated April 18, 2016 as submitted to the Monona city council by Casey’s Marketing Company and authorized by Birdnow Chevrolet, Inc. Same notice was mailed directly to Clayton County Commissioners by city attorney Schiller. It was noted that city council can legally take action at May 16, 2016 council meeting approving the annexation. Final step upon council approval is providing notification and obtaining subsequent concurrence with the Iowa Secretary of State.

10) Iowa Code Section Related to Annexation & Property Tax Exemptions: City administrator distributed Iowa Code 368.11(3.)(m.) related to Annexation & Property Tax Exemptions was reviewed and discussed. He noted that Iowa Code has a provision that allows for an exemption from taxation of the following percentages of assessed valuation according to the following schedule: First and Second Years, 75 percent; Third and Fourth Years, 60 percent; Fifth and Sixth Years, 45 percent; Seventh and Eighth Years, 30 percent; Ninth and Tenth Years, 15 percent.

Canton also explained that an alternative schedule may be adopted by the city council when they move forward with annexation of developed properties, however, an alternative schedule shall not allow a greater exemption than that provided by the code. The exemption shall be applied in the levy and collection of taxes. The provision may also allow for the partial provision of city services during time in which the exemption from taxation is in effect. If the city council provides for transition for imposition of city taxes against property in an annexation area, all property owners included in the annexation area must receive the transition upon completion of the annexation.

Permanent extension of sanitary sewer and water services to annexed properties was again discussed. It was acknowledged that timing and specific location of infrastructure extensions and connections would need to be determined prior to discussions with property owners.

At conclusion of comments, it was consensus of council to consult with Fehr Graham engineer Jon Biederman about appropriate routing of various infrastructure components.

11) Approve Appointment to Monona Planning & Zoning Commission An application was received from Kevin Brainard requesting appointment to the Monona Planning and Zoning Commission. Having received no other applications and hearing no further comments or questions, it was moved

by Havlicek, seconded by Meyer, to appoint Kevin Brainard as a board member of the P & Z Commission for a term that expires January of 2021. Carried Unanimously.

12) Status of Commercial Property on North Page Street: Administrator informed council that the city has taken ownership of the former Anthony Meyer commercial building located at 201 North Page Street through an abandonment legal proceeding. Property is described as: Lot 1 of 9, Lot 1 of 10, Block 9 of New Monona and identified as Parcel No. 36-11-480-010 on Clayton County Beacon. A Certificate of Redemption from Tax Sale from Clayton County Treasurer was also distributed. Next step would be to obtain price quotes for building demo etc.
