By ROB MAHARRY The Grundy Register CONRAD- It was an issue that could’ve been extremely contentious a n d emotional, but the BCLUW school board’s unanimous decision to compete as the Comets in all grades and discontinue the use of the “Cobra” mascot at the middle school was met with little resistance during Wednesday night’s regular meeting. And now, the transition period begins: Superintendent Ben Petty and board members warned, however, that it won’t all happen right away.

After the board met in May, an online survey was sent out to residents of the BCLUW districts in all five communities, and the consensus was quite clear: almost 87 percent of the 275 respondents wished to see a unified, K-12 Comets mascot, while 10 percent wanted to keep the middle school teams as the Cobras and 5 percent responded with something other than the two primary options. There no public comments on either side of the issue during the meeting on Wednesday. Since BCL and U-W began whole-grade sharing 30 years ago, athletes at the middle school, which is located in Union, have worn green and black and competed as the Cobras (the former U-W mascot), and those at the elementary and high school, which are both located in Conrad, have worn black and gold and been known as the Comets (the BCL mascot).

One potential hold-up to the transition is the fact that new green and black Cobra uniforms were ordered this year for some sports, and Petty indicated in a follow-up e-mail that there is no definitive timeline for the transition.

“The transition may take several years to fully implement. As new sets of uniforms are purchased in different sports, it is very possible that some junior high teams will start using Comet uniforms and colors over the next couple years, while other sports may still be using Cobra uniforms and colors for a while longer,” he said. “I'm hesitant to predict what year all BCLUW teams district-wide will be wearing Comet uniforms… It's important to make this change in a fiscally responsible way, which likely requires phasing it in over time.”

A motion from board member Shannan Callaway to move forward with the change was approved by a 7-0 vote.

Chamber of Commerce appoints new director

By Michaela Kendall The Grundy Register GRUNDY CENTER – Recently, the Grundy Center Chamber of Commerce announced the selection of a new Chamber Director – La Rae Randall – who fills the position left vacant for several months now.

Randall enters the position with a wealth of knowledge in the marketing side of business, which she brings with her from a previous position as the marketing director for Parker Place Retirement Community, as well as experience in small business management, which she has gained from owning her own photography business.

Randall found herself interested in working for the Chamber after becoming involved as a volunteer last year, and working closely with the events committee. After the position opened up, she knew taking the job was the right thing for her.

Now in her second week at the Chamber office, Randall said she is ready to jump right in, and she

already has several projects in mind.

“I’m really enjoying it so far,” she said. “I have a lot of ideas, so I’m really excited to get going with that and get the chamber going in the right direction.”

One of the biggest things she hopes to accomplish as director is working to provide support for the local businesses here in Grundy Center.

“I’m really wanting to focus on serving the businesses versus doing events,” Randall said. “I want to focus on what the businesses need – not just to survive, but to thrive – and to stay in the community for a very long time.”

She also hopes to bring new benefits to the membership program, specifically in the area of social media.

“A lot of business owners might be afraid of using Facebook or Instagram [for their business] so what I want to offer is in-house training, where I will come to you and help you figure those things out,” Randall said.

She also plans to offer free headshot photos for businesses that are a part of the Chamber, as well as promotional photography for the more tourism-focused businesses.

These photos could be used for promotion on social media, or to build a profile on Google.

“Online presence is everything in this day and age and I really want to help our businesses move towards being successful in that,” she said.

Randall said she wants businesses and community members to know that they can always come to her with any questions, concerns, suggestions or ideas for what she can do for them.

“I’m excited to get down to the nitty-gritty about what our business owners need from us, and I’m excited to come up with new and unique ways to do that,” she said. “I look forward to working with everyone in town, whether it’s a large industry or a home based business, we want you to know that we’re here for you.”

Vandal spray paints over middle school mural

By Michaela Kendall The Grundy Register GRUNDY CENTER – Last week, the school was forced to clean up a mess after it was discovered that the “I Am Syria” mural painted onto the side of the utility shed at the east parking lot had been vandalized.

The unknown vandal used a can of red spray paint to write “Americans No Refugees” across the mural.

The mural, which was created by Todd Zinkula’s seventh and eighth grade social studies students, was not about refugees and was in no way political, Zinkula said, but simply about basic human rights.

The mural was part of the “I Am Syria” Green Hand movement, which according to the “I Am Syria” website, is aimed at bringing awareness to the suffering going on in Syria while showing support to the people as they fight against a dictator to instill democracy.

The green hand is a symbol of revolution, and supporters share the hand in hopes of educating others and raising awareness of the issue.

“This organization is about showing compassion to people living in this war torn area and trying to spread democracy,” Zinkula said. “It’s the concept of

human rights; it’s about standing up to dictators, it’s not about bringing in refugees or anything like that.”

Zinkula said his students had been learning about dictators this past semester, and decided that they wanted to create this mural as a way to raise awareness about tyranny and dictatorships going on in today’s society.

From the start he was a little nervous about how people would react to the mural, seeing as the big hot-button issue in the U.S. right now is about whether or not the country should accept 25,000 Syrian refugees – even though refugees have nothing to do with the Green Hand movement, he said.

He added that one student was so passionate about the cause that she took to chalking some sidewalks on Main Street, which prompted several community members to become upset.

Zinkula said that many people, including the vandal, have probably missed the message about what the “I Am Syria” movement is.

“I believe it was a misunderstanding or a lack of education [on the vandal’s part],” he said. “This is a very non-political message, it’s just about bringing awareness to these people suffering and living in this war torn country,

Shown above are Mr. Zinkula’s eighth grade students with the mural they helped create. Shown at right is the mural after it was vandalized last week. (Courtesy photos) and showing support for them as they stand up to a dictator.”

He added that in all actuality, the students took a poll and 70 percent of them were against bringing Syrian refugees into America – but they still wanted to show support for the See vandalism page 2

After 34 years of working at a law firm in Eldora as a certified legal assistant specialist, she was approached about taking over for retiring auditor Mary Schmidt in the summer of 2011 and jumped at the opportunity. As she recently celebrated her five-year anniversary of working for the county, The Grundy Register caught up with Deters to discuss what her job entails, the joys and challenges that come with it and what it’s like to run for re-election.

“This is a continual learning process, and the laws change all of the time,” she said. “There are always new things to be implementing.”

Zinkula said that if he could, he would tell the vandal to take a minute or two to hear what the message really is.

“What I stress with my students is that with any message, make sure

School board votes to discontinue County begins process of golf, track sharing with G-R re-codifying zoning laws

By Michaela Kendall The Grundy Register GRUNDY CENTER – At last week’s regularly scheduled Grundy Center school board meeting, board members voted to end several sharing agreements with Gladbrook-Reinbeck, including golf and track sharing for both boys and girls. The board also voted to end the wrestling sharing agreement with G-R and North Tama.

At least one decision, the decision to end golf sharing, was mutual between the two schools, as the G-R school board had already voted to end it at their May meeting.

The decision to end track sharing, though, was not brought up to G-R before the April 30 deadline for deciding which sports will be shared between schools. The reason for this, according to Athletic Director Rollie Ackerman, is that he and the coaches did not want to make a decision on renewing the track sharing until after the season had ended.

In his activity sharing recommendation for the 20162017 school year, Ackerman recommended that the board renew the sharing of wrestling between GR-NT-GC for one more year to be reviewed annually, renew spring sports sharing between GR and GC for boys and girls tennis and soccer, no longer share boys and girls golf, and no longer share boys and girls track.

In his recommendation letter, Ackerman stated: “While sharing of the high school track brought about many positives including a second place finish for the boys of NICL West, five boys events and four girls event state qualifiers, as per conversations with the coaching staff at Grundy Center, the coaches recommend we no longer share high school boys and girls track.”

In a separate recommendation letter by superintendent Jerry Schutz, Schutz recommended that Grundy Center should end the track

sharing agreement, but continue sharing soccer and tennis with G-R. He added that he thought it would be accepted by G-R. “I do want to say this: we need to be very careful to ensure that we work on maintaining our relationships with our partners, the community and other school districts,” he said. “I agree that it’s nice to go to state and get ribbons, but what’s really most important is that we provide opportunities to our kids in these events, and I think that this move does accomplish that.”

The board voted unanimously to approve the Spring Sport 28E Agreement with GladbrookReinbeck with the omission of boys and girls track and golf.

In regards to the wrestling agreement with G-R and North Tama, the board voted to deny the renewal of the agreement, citing ongoing concern with the practices being so far away, in Traer.

Schutz, as superintendent, recommended that the board pursue a sharing agreement with another district, perhaps one that’s closer to Grundy Center.

“We have a coach from A-P that has expressed an interest [in sharing],” he said. “I’ve had conversations with their administration, their superintendent, and he’s also talking to their AD and we’re looking to develop a [28E] agreement that we can bring to the next board meeting.”

Schutz noted several benefits of the arrangement, including proximity. “[The agreement] would forge a new relationship with A-P,” Schutz said. “It’s an opportunity for our students to work with a top notch program that’s closer to the district and to work collaboratively with them. I think this is really good news for our athletes.”

He also noted that he had spoken to G-R and North Tama, and that they understand the decision.

“As a district, they were trying

to help Grundy Center kids that have an interest in wrestling find an opportunity, and when they found out an opportunity came up that was closer, they were happy for us,” Schutz said. “At the end of the day, we’re trying to find the optimal opportunity for our students.”

Schutz noted that A-P has asked that if Grundy Center decides to share, the agreement be for a minimum of three years, at which point the success of the sharing program can be evaluated.

A-P wrestling coach Brian Benning was present at the meeting and spoke in support of the possible sharing agreement.

Though there was no written agreement between A-P and Grundy Center for a wrestling sharing arrangement, the board decided to move forward with ending the wrestling sharing agreement with G-R for the 2016-2017 school year.

UPDATE: At their Monday night meeting, the AplingtonParkersburg school board voted to pass the sharing agreement with Grundy Center. According to A-P’s athletic director Jon Thompson, the agreement is for a maximum of three years, renewable after each year, for both high school and junior. Practices and meets would be held at A-P and the team will compete as Aplington-Parkersburg using A-P uniforms. Grundy Center, which has had four to five wrestlers per year in its previous agreement, would pay $150 per student who wrestles.

• Approved Anderson Erickson’s milk bid for the 2016-2017 school year.

By ROB MAHARRY The Grundy Register GRUNDY CENTER- A group of Grundy County officials met with Brian Schoon of the Iowa Northland Regional Council of Governments (INRCOG) at the courthouse on Monday afternoon to begin the process of re-codifying the county’s zoning laws for the first time since 2009.

Board of Supervisors Chairwoman Barb Smith, Jane Katzer of the county planning and zoning commission, and Marcia Dudden and David Schmidt of the board of adjustment were all in attendance at the meeting with Schoon, who serves as the director of development for INRCOG, an organization that provides services for six Iowa counties (Black Hawk, Bremer, Buchanan, Butler, Chickasaw and Grundy).

The county’s ordinances on wind energy production were on the docket as they have been discussed frequently over the past few months after the Board of Supervisors overruled the planning and zoning commission to allow the construction of a second wind

Free community picnic set for Sunday

GRUNDY CENTER — The Grundy Center United Methodist Church will host a free community picnic Sunday, June 26 from 5 to 7 p.m. at Bel Pre Park.

Attendees are asked to bring a food item that will be donated to the Operation Threshold Food Pantry.

farm in western Grundy County near the Ivester Church of the Brethren. Schoon noted that when counties first began updating zoning laws to allow wind farms in 2005, people were generally supportive, and backlash was minimal. That changed, however, as developers came in and sought to build turbines on agricultural land.

“When the ordinances and standards were being developed, we didn’t see anybody, but when they can see it, the rooms get full,” he said. “(The wind farms) weren’t on a map, and people couldn’t see where they were going to be (at first). Then all of a sudden, things changed in terms of public opinion.”

Schoon mentioned that in many counties, the board of adjustments handles wind energy production through special use permits rather than rezoning, as Grundy County does, but Smith countered that because the BOA is an unelected board (and any appeal would have to go through the court system), she still believed that leaving the final decision to the Board of Supervisors was the best course of action.

Grundy County resident Susan Miller sued the board after it approved the Wellsburg wind farm in 2013, alleging that Smith and fellow supervisor Jim Ross had conflicts of interests and claiming that the county did not go through the proper procedures before voting to allow the project, but the case was dismissed last spring.

The meeting attendees went on to discuss designating areas for natural resource and agricultural preservation, noting that other factors besides crop suitability rating (CSR) may need to be included in the decisions in the future.

Other topics of discussion during the approximately 90-minute meeting included home businesses, nuisances in rural areas and minimum size requirements for new acreages (the current minimum is 35 acres). No official actions were taken, and the process is expected to take several months as the committee continues to hold meetings before eventually presenting its recommendations to the Board of Supervisors. The next meeting is scheduled for July.

applying valuations of land parcels throughout the county (which determine property taxes), serving as the secretary for the Board of Supervisors and preparing agendas for their meetings, conducting and overseeing all elections within the county, handling accounts payable, managing benefits and claims for all county employees and miscellaneous other jobs.

“One of the most challenging parts (of the job) is just the width of knowledge that’s required because our office takes care of so many different kinds of things, and we’re not so specialized,” Deters said.

“I’ve learned that I can’t always know everything. I have to depend on good people in our office, and we have good people in our office.”

From page 1 She added that some of her biggest achievements in her position thus far have been instituting a passport acceptance facility at the courthouse, receiving certification as a state election administration official and implementing electronic poll books and barcode scanners for voting over the last two years.

Deters herself is up for re-election for the second time this November after winning a four-year term in 2012, but if the primary

results are any indicator, she doesn’t have much to worry about.

She won all 392 of the votes cast in the Republican primary, and no Democratic challengers have filed to run against her in the general election. Still, she’s not taking it for granted, as she noted that several of the other current county officials defeated incumbents to get to their positions.

“I would love to do this job for as long as the people of Grundy County will have me,” she said. “I really do enjoy the work that I do.

I enjoy the people that I get to do it with. I enjoy serving the citizens of the county. It’s something that brings me great satisfaction, and something that I hope I can do for a very long time.”

There’s an old saying that if you love your job, you never work a day in your life, and Deters added that it has rung especially true for her since taking her current gig.

“I enjoy being able to help others, whether that’s our citizens, other employees of the county or even people outside of the county who are requiring information about Grundy County,” she said. “What brings me the greatest satisfaction is when I can help those people get the information that they need and find the answers that they want.”

From page 1 meeting to ask the board to hire an assistant as she coached boys and girls in grades 7-12 by herself last fall. Last year, she had 31 kids out, and she noted that because of the wording of her contract, she is actually not obligated to coach the junior high teams. Fiscus, who has led the program since 1999, has had a couple of volunteer coaches in recent years but added that with the high numbers as well as safety and disciplinary concerns, she felt that a paid assistant coach was needed, specifically citing incidents in which two high school cross-country runners have died after being hit by vehicles during practice.

“I don’t want to do it by myself,” she said.

Board member Lynne Kock pointed out that every other sport at BCLUW has at least one assistant coach and opined that it was time for Fiscus to have one, and Petty told the board that the cost for a

paid assistant is around $3,000. He spoke somewhat cryptically about addressing an “elephant in the room” in a few years, referring to smaller class sizes and the possibility that the amount of new money BCLUW receives from the state could be a net negative as a result. Still, the board agreed to advertise the position, and they hope to hire someone at next month’s meeting.

During the review of school policies, a lengthy discussion emerged on practices for extracurricular activities on holidays and Sundays, with Kock arguing that sometimes the practices were necessary, especially during postseason play and because students at smaller schools like BCLUW participate in a variety of activities, while fellow board member Brian Feldpausch countered that students should not be forced to practice on those days, adding that coach-led “open gyms” basically amounted to mandatory practices on weekends.

According to Carol Altenhein of Conrad, who was instrumental in bringing the rock here, a formal dedication will be held sometime later this summer.

Kock went on to say that show choir often practices on Sundays.

“It’s a catch-22,” BCLUW Activities Director Lynn Silver said.

“Kids can’t be in everything and be everywhere—there are only 24 hours in a day.”Elementary principal Mitch Parker suggested that coaches get approval from the superintendent for practices on holidays and Sundays, but no decisions were made. The board is expected to revisit the issue at next month’s meeting. Retiring school nurse Gloria Dielschneider, who split her time between BCLUW and Grundy Center, presented her report to the board and thanked those in attendance for the opportunity to do her job for such a long time.

“I always loved my job. It was a joy to come to work,” she said.

Dielschneider has accepted a new position on the Iowa School Nurse Association board and plans to stay busy in retirement.

In personnel news, the board approved the hiring of Laurie Wallis

as the new school nurse (the position will continue to be shared with Grundy Center) and Kristin Houston as the elementary counselor. A 28E agreement with GMG was also approved for Houston’s position.

IN OTHER BUSINESS, the board: • Approved the purchase of a book room for the elementary building.

• Approved the appointments of Megan Bergman and Jim Kadner as foundation trustees.

• Accepted a bread bid from Bimbo Bakeries and a milk bid from Anderson Erickson for the 20162017 school year.

• Approved a laptop quote from Sterling for 210 computers at a total price of $48,930.

• Observed a presentation from the District Leadership Team on trends in standardized test scores among BCLUW students.

Conditions were hot and humid with no wind to cool temperatures with wind, but even amidst those distractions, the scores showed “our ability to focus,” according to Straight Shooters coach Troy Emley.

In the intermediate division, Sage Lewis was the State Champion Intermediate/Advanced Female (187 birds) in singles and second place in handicap for Intermediate/Advanced Female (85 birds).

In CISS Green 2 (singles), Holden Lane, Keaton Woosley, Blaedyn Benscoter, Dawson Kitzman and Blain Augspuger came in third place for Intermediate/Entry Level with 788 birds.

Level with 69 birds and 12th place in singles for Intermediate/Entry Level with 174 birds and Dawson Kitzman finishing in 16th place for singles in the Intermediate/Entry Level with 170 birds.

In the senior division, honorable mentions went to Ross Wolken with a 40th place finish in the Senior/Varsity singles division (193 birds) and Sam Dixon with an 85th place in the Senior/Varsity singles division (190 birds).

In the CISS Gold 1, 13th Place in Senior/Varsity singles went to Ross Wolken, Tyler Perisho, Noah Kellogg, Sam Dixon and Tyler Nablo with 933 birds.

Emley was extremely pleased with the performance of his group.

“The 2016 State Championship will be one for our record book. We had awesome squad and individual performances. Our future looks bright as our high school senior athletes ride off in to the sunset,” he said. “We cannot wait until 2017.”

He went on to thank the graduating seniors, coaches (especially Joe Wagner and Rocky Monk, who were at all four days of state championships), Monk and Gary and Lu Ann Cooling for the shelters, everyone who brought food and especially water for the athletes, the parents who support the student athletes and the student athletes who have made the program possible in its early years.

Memory Lane

A Look back through The Grundy Register Compiled by Michaela Kendall

10 Years Ago This Week - 2006 Mark Reisinger, USDA Rural Development State Director in Iowa, recently recognized Grundy County REC for loans they received totaling $900,000 that were used to support three projects in Grundy County.

Grundy County REC used the funds to support expansion of the Grundy County Memorial Hospital, construction of an industrial park, and finance a Welcome Center. “Grundy County REC has been a great partner with USD A Rural Development and it is exciting to see these projects and what they mean to the community,” Reisinger said. “These projects will help improve the quality of life in the Grundy Center community and help create new jobs.” Grundy County REC received the first loan from Rural Development in June of 2003. The REC used the $450,000 loan to provide Grundy Center Development Corp. with a $160,000 zero-interest loan to help build a new industrial park and Grundy County Memorial Hospital with a $290,000 zero-interest loan to support their renovation and expansion project.

After 72 years of operating out of Grundy Center, it appears this year will be the last here for Spokesman Press, Inc. The company, a division of Times Citizen Communications of Iowa Falls, will be moving the printing plant in December to a 20, 250 square foot spec building in an Iowa Falls industrial park. The announcement was made by company officials last week in the Iowa Falls Times-Citizen newspaper. An executive of the Iowa Falls Area Development Corporation estimates the financial incentives package for the move at about $1.8 million.

The first-ever “Too Good To Be Threw” garage sale will be held this weekend at the Grundy Center Elementary School, at 903 9th Street. Designed as a fundraiser to benefit the Grundy Community Preschool & Childcare Center, the sale features items donated by families and friends of the childcare center.

Organizers will also have a Bake Sale both days featuring homemade breads, pies, cakes, cookies and other yummy snacks.

Pillsbury brownies … 2 for $2.97.

Nabisco Oreos … 2 for $4.99 25 Years Ago This Week - 1991 The Grundy Center city council met Monday evening in regular session to tackle a full agenda. The issue of skateboards being used on the streets and sidewalks of Grundy Center was brought up for discussion. Local downtown merchants and patrons of main street have voiced complaints to the council about the hazards invoke by skateboard riders and carless riding habits being exercised by some. Other residents came to voice concern over the lack of an appropriate place for the kids to ride their skateboards.

Police Chief Bruce Stotser sympathized with the frustration felt by the riders with not knowing where they can ride; but emphasized that downtown streets and sidewalks are not the place for it to be done.

The Grundy County Sheriff’s Reserve program, organized the summer of 1969, will draw to a close on June 30. Rising liability insurance and workman’s compensation insurance costs, and new training and certification requirements have forced the dissolution of the program. At present, liability costs to the county run at $270 per member. The force is currently 15 members strong. The Reserves program has served the county by providing reserve officers living in each community to provide quick backup response for incidents. plete the construction expense goal.

50 Years Ago This Week - 1966 Grundy Center’s role as a countywide “shopping center “ is underscored in a Grundy County Extension Service survey of rural shopping habits. A total of 288 farm families from all parts of the county took part in the survey conducted by the Extension Service to “identify various community centers, “ as the survey form put it. Persons taking part in the survey were asked to indicate the town where they shopped most frequently for such items as clothing, furniture, appliances, hardware, cars, farm machinery and supplies, and groceries. Grundy Center is clearly the leading retail center for Grundy County farm families, the survey results show With the exception of groceries, farm families shop most frequently at Grundy Center, regardless of the merchandise and irrespective of where they live.

John Vanderwicken is now in his 65th year as county editor. The Dean of Iowa’s newspaper publishers still puts in a full days work – more often than not, seven days a week – in a capacity he’s served for more than 64 years in Grundy County. Vanderwicken, Editor Emeritus and co-publisher of The Grundy Register, not only is Iowa’s oldest active newspaperman, he must certainly hold a similar distinction in the nation.

Two members of the Grundy County Board of Supervisors whose terms expire this year announced this week they will be candidates in the September 6 Republican primary election. Lyle Hawn, Present chairman of the board, will be a candidate from the Washington-Palermo district for a four-year term as county supervisor. He has served the board for 15 years. Calvin Kruse, who has represented the Lincoln-Colfax district since his appointment by the board earlier this year to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Frank Venenga, will be a candidate to serve the remaining two years of Venenga’s original four year term.

75 Years Ago This Week - 1941 The United States Department of Agriculture is urging the farmers of the country to plant more soybeans this year. Farmers who are in the farm program will not be penalized for overplanting beans. They are asked to do so and to harvest the crop and it will not be charged against them as soil depleting acreage. The government needs enlarged quantities of soybean oil for national defense which is the reason the farmers are urged to increase their soybean crop over last year.

More than 2,000 homeowners in Grundy county will ask for Homestead Exemption Tax credit. Last year there were 1,988. The last date for making application for Homestead Exemption credit will be on June 30. Property owners who have bought or built new residences the past year into which they have moved must see to it that the contract or deed for their property is recorded. If it is not, their application for tax exemption can’t be approved.

Assessors when they made their calls on property owners the early part of the year had a large number of Homestead exemption applications signed up. The board of supervisors must pass on all applications for tax exemption. They will complete this work in July. They have all of July to consider applications and to accept or reject applications.

“Life With Henry” starts its engagement on Saturday for three days at the Center Theatre.

Letters to the editor I was traveling near Dike, Iowa, late last Friday night with my mother and two sisters. We had a frightening experience of a driver coming down the wrong way on the highway. We were ran off the road, and I laid on my horn trying to get this person’s attention before they killed someone.

We called 911, and within seconds a patrol car was screaming down the highway trying to catch this white truck that nearly killed myself and three other very important members of my family. I don't know if this was the cause of the cover on the back of my truck to come undone but in seeing this, I took the exit leading into a town called Dike. I drove around trying to find shelter because I hear you people get crazy storms, and I was right in the middle of my worst nightmare. I turned a corner in this small little town, and wouldn't you know it, but we found a whole group of men sitting in a garage drinking some beers. When four women stopped and asked for help, these men moved a car and guided me to back up right into the garage. On behalf of my mother, whom is 80, and my sisters who aren't that young, I want to give a big shout out to these men. I don't know who you are, but the house is a block off the highway, and I think it’s white. You guys went beyond the call of coolness, and I thank you all. Best regards and God bless this wonderful country we live in.

Thank you again, Deanna Allen -just a girl from Ohio

Leading by example?

Late on June 10, I received notice through the mail to remove “tall grass and very obnoxious weeds” on the property where my wife and I live. It went on to say I had until the 15th before fines would occur and the city would remedy the problem. This gave us just four days to take care of the situation. What if my mail was delivered to another address, or we were out of town? I admit that some maintenance needed to come up to speed, largely due to a recent surgery and doctor’s orders.

My wife and I did the right thing and took care of the problem. That being said, we also knew that the city’s concrete dump was in much worse shape than our property. Some problems can also be found at the city’s tree dump. A very short walk around the block will also show that at least five of our neighbors also would fall into violation of the city’s ordinance. There are properties in our community that have not been mowed once while the rest of us have mowed many times. I am not even going to get into nitpicking about living in an agricultural community, but let’s face it, major municipalities in Iowa can have chickens but not even 4H youth in Grundy Center!

The fact that no one contacted us before the letter and that other people and the city seem exempt can make citizens feel targeted and singled out. We’re a small community in an agricultural region; I remember when the majority of our citizens were retired farmers. Things definitely have changed but can we afford to forget we were originally formed with communication and compassion? A simple conversation can, and usually does, solve many problems.

I will conclude with a couple of things I learned as a teenager in Grundy Center: It takes an assortment of people to make a community, not just one. You also need to lead by example. Everyone know “do as I say not as I do” is a plan for disaster.

Paul Sealman P.S. Isn’t it about time that the Grundy Center City Council meetings be televised on channel 11 as it was originally planned?

My Three Cents Worth

The return of the King

No athlete in modern sports history rewrote and perhaps saved his legacy more than one LeBron James did in the last week, ending a 52-year title drought in a city known only for sporting failure in the process. Even as only a casual fan of the NBA, I can say with certainty that this is one of the defining sports moments of my lifetime. We’ll be talking about the great Cleveland comeback and the King’s redemption decades from now—it’s still hard to believe it really happened.

I, like pretty much everyone else with even a passing interest in the finals, was ready to close the book on the Cavs and accept another close, but no cigar season: first, when Golden State won the first two games of the series, and again when the Warriors went ahead 3-1 with a chance to close it out in Oakland. This was, in fact, the greatest regular season team of all time, and Steph Curry had replaced LeBron as the face of the league with his back-toback MVP awards, boyish charm and a daughter with a knack for stealing the show at press conferences. Cleveland just wasn’t good enough to beat these guys, even with James’s more or less self-assembled team and handpicked head coach in Tyronn Lue. Trading for Kevin Love seemed like a huge mistake. Outside of LeBron and Kyrie Irving, no one on this team could score. JR Smith could hit shots that he had no business even taking and then miss eight layups in a row.

Once again, the Warriors seemed to have the Cavs figured out, even as Curry never really found his stroke offensively throughout most of the series.

But something changed in game five. James and Irving went off for 41

By Rob Maharry points each, and this downtrodden team seemed to have regained some of its swagger in the absence of Draymond Green, the undersized, loudmouthed, groin-hitting heart and soul of the Warriors, something of a Charles Barkley 2.0. Still, I thought, there are two more games, including one in the Bay Area.

There’s no way that the Cavs pull this off.

Green was back for game six, but it didn’t matter. At this point, James was a one man wrecking machine more focused than we’d ever seen him in his 13-year career, and he put up 41 points again en route to a 115-101 victory.

Suddenly, the impossible seemed possible. LeBron might just bring a title back to the area where he grew up, and he might just do it by overcoming a deficit that no team had ever overcome against one of the greatest teams of all time.

And he did. If game seven didn’t cement his legacy as one of the greatest to ever play the game of basketball, I’m not sure what will. For all of the criticisms of LeBron over the years—“The Decision,” the argument that he isn’t clutch and defers to teammates in big moments, his lack of the sociopathic obsession with winning at all costs that consumed Kobe and Jordan, and the perception that he’s soft—he put them to rest with a triple-double performance that included one of the greatest defensive plays in NBA history with just over a minute to go, a Superman-esque block on Andre Iguodala as he went to the basket for what looked like an easy go-ahead layup.

Irving played his part as well, nailing what proved to be the decisive three in a one-on-one matchup with Curry and outdueling the MVP throughout the series, and the pandemonium in Cleveland commenced despite the fact that the Cavs were playing 2,500 miles away. I’ve spent my whole life in Iowa and have only driven through Ohio once, but I felt like a Clevelander that night. The underdog won in the most dramatic fashion, and even a neutral observer can appreciate that.

I’m not sure where King James will go from here, but with three NBA titles and Finals MVP awards in each one of them, he has nothing left to prove to anyone. I’m sure he’d like to win a few more and put himself in the conversation with His Airness, Magic, Kobe, Kareem and some of the other all-time greats, and with five or six good years left in him, that’s entirely possible. But regardless of what happens, he’ll be able to look back at 2016 as the year he put a team on his back, defied the odds and took down Goliath. Curry may be the prince of the NBA right now, but LeBron is still the king.

It’s been a little over a week now since the latest mass shooting/terrorist attack/hate crime/whatever you want to call it based on your political beliefs, and once again, we as a nation seem completely void of answers or solutions.

If you’re a conservative, radical Islam is the only culprit, and if you’re a liberal, it’s all about guns. We’ve heard this before, and unfortunately, we’ll probably hear it again. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Trump congratulated himself for being “right,” and Hillary gave a perfectly scripted speech crafted not to offend anyone. Neither seems to have much of a clue on what to do other than give the government more power to monitor people in hopes that these problems will somehow just go away in the future (they won’t). Four bills were proposed in the Senate in the aftermath of the shooting, two from Republicans and two from Democrats, and they all failed.

One of the negative byproducts of a country based on the idea of “freedom” is that it also entails the freedom to do horrible things that most of us would never even dream of.

While we offer another round of thoughts and prayers to the victims of the Pulse Massacre, there seems to be a creeping resignation to the fact that while we all feel for the victims and offer our sympathies, there’s nothing even resembling a consensus on what to do going forward. Something has to change one of these years.

Letter to the editor To the people who recently stole flowers from the Grundy Center Cemetery: I am sad for you that you have such a family life that you cannot think of other things to do with your life than steal flowers to hurt others.

This close to Father’s Day, you tok flowers from a much loved father’s grave. My family is a long way away from home and were totally shocked to know this happened.

Please find something else to do with your life other than stealing flowers.

Felix Grundy Festival offers new entertainment, fun for the whole family

By Michaela Kendall The Grundy Register GRUNDY CENTER – This year ’s Felix Grundy Festival promises to offer all the tried-andtrue festival favorites, as well as several fun, new additions.

The most notable addition to this year ’s festival is the c a r n i v a l r i d e s b e i n g o ff e r e d by entertainment company Amusement Associates.

On both Friday, July 8 and Saturday, July 9, there will be rides set up in the festival area.

There will be around 10 to 12 rides, which will be suitable for kids all ages. The rides will range from thrill rides to a mechanical bull to jousting and more.

In order to fund the rides, the Felix Grundy Festival committee will be offering pre-

sale wristbands and tickets up until the start of the festival. There are two different wristbands for sale: one for Friday and one for Saturday. The wristbands will allow the rider to go on almost every ride, with the exception of the mechanical bull, for the day that the wristband is valid for. On Friday, the rides will run from noon to 9 p.m., and on Saturday they will run from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Another new event at this year’s festival is an outdoor movie showing at the courthouse yard, sponsored by Engelkes Abels Funeral Home. The movie being shown is “Nanny McPhee,” the 2005 Fantasy/Comedy about a man who hires a nanny to care for his seven rambunctious children, who have chased away

all previous nannies. This nanny, Nanny McPhee, uses mystical powers to instill discipline to the children. When the children's great-aunt threatens to separate the kids, the family pulls together under the guidance of Nanny McPhee.The movie will be showing at 8:30 p.m., and has a run time of 1 hour and 39 minutes.

Popcorn will be sponsored by the Center Theatre.Among other events new to this year’s festival are several new Gazebo Entertainment acts, including: the Johnson Family Strings, Brazilian Twins, Magic Mike and more.

News from Ivester Grundy Center Community School FATHER’S DAY District Foundation 2015 Fundraising Visitors from Wisconsin to the Jer-

Members of the Timothy Christian School graduating class of 2016 are L to R: Michael Pruisner, son of Todd and Liz Pruisner; Aaron Zinnecker, son of Brad and Wendy Zinnecker; Gwendolyn Thorne, daughter of Scott and Valerie Thorne; and Jacob Olthoff, son of Ed and Betty Olthoff. Also pictured is Principal, Janna Voss.

Timothy Christian School Class of 2016 Timothy Christian School celebrated the graduation of four eighth graders on May 26 at First Christian Reformed Church of rural Wellsburg. The students chose as their class verse, Jeremiah 6:16, “Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is and walk in it..” Pastor Rick Vollema, of Pleasant Valley Reformed Church, addressed the graduates on living out the message from their verse. The eighth graders then performed a skit that depicted various highlights from their years at Timothy Christian.

Diplomas were awarded to the graduates by Board Chairman, Ryan

Bakker. They were presented with Study Bibles by Principal, Janna Voss who then spoke briefly to the graduates and shared selections that each had written concerning the legacy they would be leaving as they moved on to high school. Michael Pruisner and Gwendolyn Thorne will be attending Aplington-Parkersburg High School. Aaron Zinnecker will be moving with his family to New York State. Jacob Oltoff and his parents have not yet made a decision about where he will attend high school.

Mary Zimmermann, the graduates’ writing teacher was unable to attend but wrote these words about

her students: “A legacy is a gift, something handed down from one person to another. The dictionary defines legacy as money or property, but I think the greater gift is this meaningful contribution to our Timothy families from the 2016 graduates who are well-grounded in their faith, who embrace their unique gifts, and who focus on making a difference in the lives of others. They are students who pIace little emphasis on accomplishments and recognition. I believe they understand very clearly that their value comes from who they are at their core, and Whose they are in their hearts."

Established in 1991, the Foundation harnesses the support of alumni, business, faculty, friends and community members to provide additional education opportunities and experiences for students in the Grundy Center Community School District.

They moved back to Grundy center in 1943. Doris married Doug Arends in 1948. She was employed for 35 years at the Spokesman Press. She was active in her church and was an avid golfer and quilter. She is survived by two sons Steve (Vicky) Arends of Cedar Falls, Iowa and Stuart Arends of Willard, New Mexico; three grandchildren Michelle (Jeff) Runde of Dubuque, Rebecca (Tim) Lalk of Waverly and Ryan (Sarah) Arends of Ankeny; and twelve great-grandchildren.

A good catch and going for more!

The week of June 18 was just what I expected, busy busy busy.

Birthdays, Father's Day and company. Company is always the most fun because lots of helping hands make the work faster and easier. The fun started Saturday the 18th with a 2 pm birthday party for my 2-year-old great-grandson Carson Clark. Parents Eric and Chelsea put the cake in his hands and this is what you get.

Party guests were from Dike, Waterloo, Fort Dodge and Cedar Falls.

One party for Saturday has ended and it is time to celebrate with Joe and Rita Galloway. The 50th anniversary party was well attended at Fox Ridge and Joe and Rita introduced the original wedding party and then Joe and Rita did the Bride and Groom wedding dance with music provided by Rita's brothers, Don and Ron. Wonderful entertainment.

On to Sunday the Father's Day for all men that are important in the lives of family and friends. Charles Paige on this June 19 was his time to celebrate a birthday and Father's Day. Charles attended church with his family of Suzan Bienfang, Diane Paige and Joel and Chris Paige and Amber and Ava Paige of Hubbard.

Enjoying the hamburger cookout at the Paige home were family that also included Wayne, Marlene and Paul Paige, Gloria Gerstenkorn, Eric, Chelsea and Carson, Mike, Amy and Abby, Martin, Wendy, Haleigh, Nick and Maccoy. Kyle and his friend Leah and Ari stopped by later in the afternoon with birthday wishes.

Spring Clean-up was successful with 20+ volunteers and business owners helping clean sidewalks, wash windows, plant flowers and pull weeds on along G Avenue. An informational meeting was held on May 9th with Ed Bausch from Iowa Economic Development and Jim Thompson of Main Street Iowa to discuss a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) application process.

Main Street Grundy Center has received a $5,000 grant from Main Street Iowa and efforts continue to match those funds locally. These funds will be used to complete the initial phase of the downtown revitalization project, such as hiring an architect firm to evaluate each of the buildings in the downtown district, prioritize them by need, and meet with those building owners to discuss needs, possible renovation features, costs, and their interest in participating in the façade renovation program. Former Old Baptist Church is not included at this time. So far ten of our local business have bet with our Small Business Development Center representative, with more on a waiting list. Dave Stefl will compete on June 16, 2016 to compete with three businesses at sub-state for a chance to win $9,000 in the “Open for Business” competition.

Jennifer Havens, CEO of Grundy County Memorial Hospital, made comment on the contract that is being presented during the meeting. This contract is between the City of Grundy Center full time Paramedics and the Grundy County Memorial Hospital. This contract will allow the Paramedics to fill in with the Emergency Department if needed, when they are not out on a call.

Mark Jungling, Grundy County Courthouse employee, commented on the need to find a space to store building materials, lawn mower, snow blower equipment, etc. once the building project of the new annex begins. The County has a 12’x16’ garage on skids currently on their property. His request was if this garage could be moved to the very southwest corner of our 801 7th Street property during this 10 month construction period.

Miller moved and Ammerman seconded action on Resolution 2016-29, a resolution awarding a BIG Grant to Jason Appel, owner of Crystal Bowl for lane, gutter and pin deck and infrastructure upgrades. Motion carried four ayes.

Miller moved and Ammerman seconded action Resolution 2016-30, a resolution authorizing fund to be used to purchase new planters and trash receptacles for G Avenue.

This purchase will not be made until Fall 2016 when word on grant arrives. Miller moved and Ammerman seconded action to table this resolution until Fall 2016 when the purchases are actually made. Motion carried four ayes.

Motion carried four ayes.

Miller moved and Stefl seconded action on Resolution 2016-32, a resolution authorizing the fiscal year end transfers prior to June 30, 2016. Discussion was started by Sawyer explaining the transfer for the unused funds of the Fire Department Budget. This was a request made by Fire Chief during budgeting time.

This contract allows our full time paramedics to fill in at the Emergency Department when they do not have ambulance calls. Kiewiet asked Paramedic Gliem if this was a good thing for the Ambulance Department, he commented that staff had approved this arrangement. They are looking forward to increased call volume and interested in working with the local Emergency Department more. Motion carried four ayes.

Mayor Buhrow opened the discussion on the building permit fee schedule. Sawyer explained that the Finance Committee had met and discussed a possible sliding fee for commercial properties only. They felt that the residential fee scale was sufficient for the needs. The Finance Committee recommended the sliding fee scale of 0.50% of project cost for the first $100,000; then 0.25% from $100,000 to $500,000; and then 0.10% for the balance. There was also a discussion about the possibility of a zoning administrator per visit fee. The discussion also included the need to remove verbiage from the code regarding non-profit organizations, such as churches, schools, and U.S. Governmental organization not being charged a fee. Sawyer was instructed to move forward with an ordinance with these changes along with adding a definition of a project cost.

Mayor Buhrow opened the discussion on Chapter 69.08 –No Parking Zones in our Code of Ordinances. The Public Safety Committee had looked at all of them that are currently in our code and made suggestions on some deletions and additions needed to bring our Code up to date. Discussion was had mainly around the narrow streets around our schools buildings. Sawyer was instructed to move forward with an ordinance amending the current Code. .Finance Committee made no further comment.

Public Safety Committee made comment Officer Fox designed new patches for entire department.

Zinkula said that if he could, he would tell the vandal to take a minute or two to hear what the message really is.

“What I stress with my students is that with any message, make sure

you educate yourself and hear both sides of an issue before you go out and form an opinion.”

Although he isn’t sure if they will repaint the mural next year, Zinkula said that he’s already had several people encourage them to continue with the project, and he’s even had

someone volunteer to pay for the paint. He added that while he is not seeking punishment for the vandal, he does hope that they find out what the message is really about.

School board votes to discontinue County begins process of golf, track sharing with G-R re-codifying zoning laws

By MICHAELA KENDALL The Grundy Register GRUNDY CENTER – At last week’s regularly scheduled Grundy Center school board meeting, board members voted to end several sharing agreements with Gladbrook-Reinbeck, including golf and track sharing for both boys and girls. The board also voted to end the wrestling sharing agreement with G-R and North Tama.

At least one decision, the decision to end golf sharing, was mutual between the two schools, as the G-R school board had already voted to end it at their May meeting.

The decision to end track sharing, though, was not brought up to G-R before the April 30 deadline for deciding which sports will be shared between schools. The reason for this, according to Athletic Director Rollie Ackerman, is that he and the coaches did not want to make a decision on renewing the track sharing until after the season had ended.

In his activity sharing recommendation for the 20162017 school year, Ackerman recommended that the board renew the sharing of wrestling between GR-NT-GC for one more year to be reviewed annually, renew spring sports sharing between GR and GC for boys and girls tennis and soccer, no longer share boys and girls golf, and no longer share boys and girls track.

In his recommendation letter, Ackerman stated: “While sharing of the high school track brought about many positives including a second place finish for the boys of NICL West, five boys events and four girls event state qualifiers, as per conversations with the coaching staff at Grundy Center, the coaches recommend we no longer share high school boys and girls track.”

In a separate recommendation letter by superintendent Jerry Schutz, Schutz recommended that Grundy Center should end the track

sharing agreement, but continue sharing soccer and tennis with G-R. He added that he thought it would be accepted by G-R. “I do want to say this: we need to be very careful to ensure that we work on maintaining our relationships with our partners, the community and other school districts,” he said. “I agree that it’s nice to go to state and get ribbons, but what’s really most important is that we provide opportunities to our kids in these events, and I think that this move does accomplish that.”

The board voted unanimously to approve the Spring Sport 28E Agreement with GladbrookReinbeck with the omission of boys and girls track and golf.

In regards to the wrestling agreement with G-R and North Tama, the board voted to deny the renewal of the agreement, citing ongoing concern with the practices being so far away, in Traer.

Schutz, as superintendent, recommended that the board pursue a sharing agreement with another district, perhaps one that’s closer to Grundy Center.

“We have a coach from A-P that has expressed an interest [in sharing],” he said. “I’ve had conversations with their administration, their superintendent, and he’s also talking to their AD and we’re looking to develop a [28E] agreement that we can bring to the next board meeting.”

Schutz noted several benefits of the arrangement, including proximity. “[The agreement] would forge a new relationship with A-P,” Schutz said. “It’s an opportunity for our students to work with a top notch program that’s closer to the district and to work collaboratively with them. I think this is really good news for our athletes.”

He also noted that he had spoken to G-R and North Tama, and that they understand the decision.

“As a district, they were trying

to help Grundy Center kids that have an interest in wrestling find an opportunity, and when they found out an opportunity came up that was closer, they were happy for us,” Schutz said. “At the end of the day, we’re trying to find the optimal opportunity for our students.”

Schutz noted that A-P has asked that if Grundy Center decides to share, the agreement be for a minimum of three years, at which point the success of the sharing program can be evaluated.

A-P wrestling coach Brian Benning was present at the meeting and spoke in support of the possible sharing agreement.

Though there was no written agreement between A-P and Grundy Center for a wrestling sharing arrangement, the board decided to move forward with ending the wrestling sharing agreement with G-R for the 2016-2017 school year.

UPDATE: At their Monday night meeting, the AplingtonParkersburg school board voted to pass the sharing agreement with Grundy Center. According to A-P’s athletic director Jon Thompson, the agreement is for a maximum of three years, renewable after each year, for both high school and junior. Practices and meets would be held at A-P and the team will compete as Aplington-Parkersburg using A-P uniforms. Grundy Center, which has had four to five wrestlers per year in its previous agreement, would pay $150 per student who wrestles.

• Approved Anderson Erickson’s milk bid for the 2016-2017 school year.

• Approved Bimbo’s bread bid for the 2016-2017 school year.

• Approved the professional memberships totaling $6,631 for ASCD, IASB, SAI and IPTA. • Approved the resignation of Rollie Ackerman as athletic director and .5 teacher, Jill Krausman as concessions manager, and Kassi Nelson as girls golf co-coach.

By ROB MAHARRY The Grundy Register GRUNDY CENTER- A group of Grundy County officials met with Brian Schoon of the Iowa Northland Regional Council of Governments (INRCOG) at the courthouse on Monday afternoon to begin the process of re-codifying the county’s zoning laws for the first time since 2009.

Board of Supervisors Chairwoman Barb Smith, Jane Katzer of the county planning and zoning commission, and Marcia Dudden and David Schmidt of the board of adjustment were all in attendance at the meeting with Schoon, who serves as the director of development for INRCOG, an organization that provides services for six Iowa counties (Black Hawk, Bremer, Buchanan, Butler, Chickasaw and Grundy).

The county’s ordinances on wind energy production were on the docket as they have been discussed frequently over the past few months after the Board of Supervisors overruled the planning and zoning commission to allow the construction of a second wind

GRUNDY CENTER — In conjunction with the Felix Grundy Days the Grundy Center Sports Hall of Fame is sponsoring their 10th annual 3-Person Best Shot Golf Tournament on Thursday, July 7, the day before the official start of the Felix Grundy weekend.

The tournament will be held at the Town & Country Golf Club starting at 12:30 p.m. Two teams will be on each tee. The tournament is open to anyone, with proceeds going to help fund the GC Hall of Fame Board and plaques located at the Grundy Center High School. The field is limited to the first 24 paid teams.

There is an entry fee for each player, which includes the 18 holes of golf, prizes, a GC HOF logoed item and a steak dinner. Entries can be made by calling the Town & Country Golf Club at 319-824-3712 or by sending in

Free community picnic set for Sunday GRUNDY CENTER — The Grundy Center United Methodist Church will host a free community picnic Sunday, June 26 from 5 to 7 p.m. at Bel Pre Park.

Special guest for the picnic will be Christian instrumentalist and Barney Fife impersonator Larry Delawder.

Attendees are asked to bring a food item that will be donated to the Operation Threshold Food Pantry.

farm in western Grundy County near the Ivester Church of the Brethren. Schoon noted that when counties first began updating zoning laws to allow wind farms in 2005, people were generally supportive, and backlash was minimal. That changed, however, as developers came in and sought to build turbines on agricultural land.

“When the ordinances and standards were being developed, we didn’t see anybody, but when they can see it, the rooms get full,” he said. “(The wind farms) weren’t on a map, and people couldn’t see where they were going to be (at first). Then all of a sudden, things changed in terms of public opinion.”

Schoon mentioned that in many counties, the board of adjustments handles wind energy production through special use permits rather than rezoning, as Grundy County does, but Smith countered that because the BOA is an unelected board (and any appeal would have to go through the court system), she still believed that leaving the final decision to the Board of Supervisors was the best course of action.

Grundy County resident Susan Miller sued the board after it approved the Wellsburg wind farm in 2013, alleging that Smith and fellow supervisor Jim Ross had conflicts of interests and claiming that the county did not go through the proper procedures before voting to allow the project, but the case was dismissed last spring.

The meeting attendees went on to discuss designating areas for natural resource and agricultural preservation, noting that other factors besides crop suitability rating (CSR) may need to be included in the decisions in the future.

Other topics of discussion during the approximately 90-minute meeting included home businesses, nuisances in rural areas and minimum size requirements for new acreages (the current minimum is 35 acres). No official actions were taken, and the process is expected to take several months as the committee continues to hold meetings before eventually presenting its recommendations to the Board of Supervisors. The next meeting is scheduled for July.

applying valuations of land parcels throughout the county (which determine property taxes), serving as the secretary for the Board of Supervisors and preparing agendas for their meetings, conducting and overseeing all elections within the county, handling accounts payable, managing benefits and claims for all county employees and miscellaneous other jobs.

“One of the most challenging parts (of the job) is just the width of knowledge that’s required because our office takes care of so many different kinds of things, and we’re not so specialized,” Deters said.

“I’ve learned that I can’t always know everything. I have to depend on good people in our office, and we have good people in our office.”

From page 1 She added that some of her biggest achievements in her position thus far have been instituting a passport acceptance facility at the courthouse, receiving certification as a state election administration official and implementing electronic poll books and barcode scanners for voting over the last two years.

Deters herself is up for re-election for the second time this November after winning a four-year term in 2012, but if the primary

results are any indicator, she doesn’t have much to worry about.

She won all 392 of the votes cast in the Republican primary, and no Democratic challengers have filed to run against her in the general election. Still, she’s not taking it for granted, as she noted that several of the other current county officials defeated incumbents to get to their positions.

“I would love to do this job for as long as the people of Grundy County will have me,” she said. “I really do enjoy the work that I do.

I enjoy the people that I get to do it with. I enjoy serving the citizens of the county. It’s something that brings me great satisfaction, and something that I hope I can do for a very long time.”

There’s an old saying that if you love your job, you never work a day in your life, and Deters added that it has rung especially true for her since taking her current gig.

“I enjoy being able to help others, whether that’s our citizens, other employees of the county or even people outside of the county who are requiring information about Grundy County,” she said. “What brings me the greatest satisfaction is when I can help those people get the information that they need and find the answers that they want.”

From page 1 meeting to ask the board to hire an assistant as she coached boys and girls in grades 7-12 by herself last fall. Last year, she had 31 kids out, and she noted that because of the wording of her contract, she is actually not obligated to coach the junior high teams. Fiscus, who has led the program since 1999, has had a couple of volunteer coaches in recent years but added that with the high numbers as well as safety and disciplinary concerns, she felt that a paid assistant coach was needed, specifically citing incidents in which two high school cross-country runners have died after being hit by vehicles during practice.

“I don’t want to do it by myself,” she said.

Board member Lynne Kock pointed out that every other sport at BCLUW has at least one assistant coach and opined that it was time for Fiscus to have one, and Petty told the board that the cost for a

paid assistant is around $3,000. He spoke somewhat cryptically about addressing an “elephant in the room” in a few years, referring to smaller class sizes and the possibility that the amount of new money BCLUW receives from the state could be a net negative as a result. Still, the board agreed to advertise the position, and they hope to hire someone at next month’s meeting.

During the review of school policies, a lengthy discussion emerged on practices for extracurricular activities on holidays and Sundays, with Kock arguing that sometimes the practices were necessary, especially during postseason play and because students at smaller schools like BCLUW participate in a variety of activities, while fellow board member Brian Feldpausch countered that students should not be forced to practice on those days, adding that coach-led “open gyms” basically amounted to mandatory practices on weekends.

According to Carol Altenhein of Conrad, who was instrumental in bringing the rock here, a formal dedication will be held sometime later this summer.

Kock went on to say that show choir often practices on Sundays.

“It’s a catch-22,” BCLUW Activities Director Lynn Silver said.

“Kids can’t be in everything and be everywhere—there are only 24 hours in a day.”Elementary principal Mitch Parker suggested that coaches get approval from the superintendent for practices on holidays and Sundays, but no decisions were made. The board is expected to revisit the issue at next month’s meeting. Retiring school nurse Gloria Dielschneider, who split her time between BCLUW and Grundy Center, presented her report to the board and thanked those in attendance for the opportunity to do her job for such a long time.

“I always loved my job. It was a joy to come to work,” she said.

Dielschneider has accepted a new position on the Iowa School Nurse Association board and plans to stay busy in retirement.

In personnel news, the board approved the hiring of Laurie Wallis

as the new school nurse (the position will continue to be shared with Grundy Center) and Kristin Houston as the elementary counselor. A 28E agreement with GMG was also approved for Houston’s position.

IN OTHER BUSINESS, the board: • Approved the purchase of a book room for the elementary building.

• Approved the appointments of Megan Bergman and Jim Kadner as foundation trustees.

• Accepted a bread bid from Bimbo Bakeries and a milk bid from Anderson Erickson for the 20162017 school year.

• Approved a laptop quote from Sterling for 210 computers at a total price of $48,930.

By ROB MAHARRY The Grundy Register CEDAR FALLS- The BCLUW/ East Marshall Straight Shooters trapshooting team wrapped up its third season with a successful outing at the state championship in Cedar Falls from June 9-12.

Many personal best scores were achieved, including 25 straights and one 75 straight shot by Ross Wolken.

Conditions were hot and humid with no wind to cool temperatures with wind, but even amidst those distractions, the scores showed “our ability to focus,” according to Straight Shooters coach Troy Emley.

In the intermediate division, Sage Lewis was the State Champion Intermediate/Advanced Female (187 birds) in singles and second place in handicap for Intermediate/Advanced Female (85 birds).

In CISS Green 2 (singles), Holden Lane, Keaton Woosley, Blaedyn Benscoter, Dawson Kitzman and Blain Augspuger came in third place for Intermediate/Entry Level with 788 birds.

In CISS Green 1 (single), sixth place in Intermediate/Advanced went to Cameron Critchfield, Taevin Perisho, Logan Proffitt, Sage Lewis and Tucker Wall with 857 birds.

Honorable mentions included Dawson Kitzman with a fifth place in the handicap for Intermediate/ Entry Level with 79 birds, Blaedyn Benscoter finishing in 10th place in the handicap for Intermediate/Entry

Level with 69 birds and 12th place in singles for Intermediate/Entry Level with 174 birds and Dawson Kitzman finishing in 16th place for singles in the Intermediate/Entry Level with 170 birds.

In the senior division, honorable mentions went to Ross Wolken with a 40th place finish in the Senior/Varsity singles division (193 birds) and Sam Dixon with an 85th place in the Senior/Varsity singles division (190 birds).

In the CISS Gold 1, 13th Place in Senior/Varsity singles went to Ross Wolken, Tyler Perisho, Noah Kellogg, Sam Dixon and Tyler Nablo with 933 birds.

Emley was extremely pleased with the performance of his group.

“The 2016 State Championship will be one for our record book. We had awesome squad and individual performances. Our future looks bright as our high school senior athletes ride off in to the sunset,” he said. “We cannot wait until 2017.”

He went on to thank the graduating seniors, coaches (especially Joe Wagner and Rocky Monk, who were at all four days of state championships), Monk and Gary and Lu Ann Cooling for the shelters, everyone who brought food and especially water for the athletes, the parents who support the student athletes and the student athletes who have made the program possible in its early years.

Memory Lane

A Look back through The Grundy Register Compiled by Michaela Kendall

10 Years Ago This Week - 2006 Mark Reisinger, USDA Rural Development State Director in Iowa, recently recognized Grundy County REC for loans they received totaling $900,000 that were used to support three projects in Grundy County.

Grundy County REC used the funds to support expansion of the Grundy County Memorial Hospital, construction of an industrial park, and finance a Welcome Center. “Grundy County REC has been a great partner with USD A Rural Development and it is exciting to see these projects and what they mean to the community,” Reisinger said. “These projects will help improve the quality of life in the Grundy Center community and help create new jobs.” Grundy County REC received the first loan from Rural Development in June of 2003. The REC used the $450,000 loan to provide Grundy Center Development Corp. with a $160,000 zero-interest loan to help build a new industrial park and Grundy County Memorial Hospital with a $290,000 zero-interest loan to support their renovation and expansion project.

After 72 years of operating out of Grundy Center, it appears this year will be the last here for Spokesman Press, Inc. The company, a division of Times Citizen Communications of Iowa Falls, will be moving the printing plant in December to a 20, 250 square foot spec building in an Iowa Falls industrial park. The announcement was made by company officials last week in the Iowa Falls Times-Citizen newspaper. An executive of the Iowa Falls Area Development Corporation estimates the financial incentives package for the move at about $1.8 million.

The first-ever “Too Good To Be Threw” garage sale will be held this weekend at the Grundy Center Elementary School, at 903 9th Street. Designed as a fundraiser to benefit the Grundy Community Preschool & Childcare Center, the sale features items donated by families and friends of the childcare center.

Organizers will also have a Bake Sale both days featuring homemade breads, pies, cakes, cookies and other yummy snacks.

At the Center Theatre … “The Break-Up” and “Cars.”

Pillsbury brownies … 2 for $2.97.

Nabisco Oreos … 2 for $4.99 25 Years Ago This Week - 1991 The Grundy Center city council met Monday evening in regular session to tackle a full agenda. The issue of skateboards being used on the streets and sidewalks of Grundy Center was brought up for discussion. Local downtown merchants and patrons of main street have voiced complaints to the council about the hazards invoke by skateboard riders and carless riding habits being exercised by some. Other residents came to voice concern over the lack of an appropriate place for the kids to ride their skateboards.

Police Chief Bruce Stotser sympathized with the frustration felt by the riders with not knowing where they can ride; but emphasized that downtown streets and sidewalks are not the place for it to be done.

The Grundy County Sheriff’s Reserve program, organized the summer of 1969, will draw to a close on June 30. Rising liability insurance and workman’s compensation insurance costs, and new training and certification requirements have forced the dissolution of the program. At present, liability costs to the county run at $270 per member. The force is currently 15 members strong. The Reserves program has served the county by providing reserve officers living in each community to provide quick backup response for incidents. plete the construction expense goal.

Red plums … 79 cents per lb.

Kiwi fruit … 3 for $1.

Seedless white grapes … $1.39 per lb.

50 Years Ago This Week - 1966 Grundy Center’s role as a countywide “shopping center “ is underscored in a Grundy County Extension Service survey of rural shopping habits. A total of 288 farm families from all parts of the county took part in the survey conducted by the Extension Service to “identify various community centers, “ as the survey form put it. Persons taking part in the survey were asked to indicate the town where they shopped most frequently for such items as clothing, furniture, appliances, hardware, cars, farm machinery and supplies, and groceries. Grundy Center is clearly the leading retail center for Grundy County farm families, the survey results show With the exception of groceries, farm families shop most frequently at Grundy Center, regardless of the merchandise and irrespective of where they live.

John Vanderwicken is now in his 65th year as county editor. The Dean of Iowa’s newspaper publishers still puts in a full days work – more often than not, seven days a week – in a capacity he’s served for more than 64 years in Grundy County. Vanderwicken, Editor Emeritus and co-publisher of The Grundy Register, not only is Iowa’s oldest active newspaperman, he must certainly hold a similar distinction in the nation.

Two members of the Grundy County Board of Supervisors whose terms expire this year announced this week they will be candidates in the September 6 Republican primary election. Lyle Hawn, Present chairman of the board, will be a candidate from the Washington-Palermo district for a four-year term as county supervisor. He has served the board for 15 years. Calvin Kruse, who has represented the Lincoln-Colfax district since his appointment by the board earlier this year to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Frank Venenga, will be a candidate to serve the remaining two years of Venenga’s original four year term.

Rose Croix applesauce … 3 cans for 29 cents.

Florida sweet and juicy watermelon … 77 cents each.

Fresh vine ripe cantaloupe … 3 large fruits for 89 cents.

Bing cherries … 12 lb. lug for $3.66.

75 Years Ago This Week - 1941 The United States Department of Agriculture is urging the farmers of the country to plant more soybeans this year. Farmers who are in the farm program will not be penalized for overplanting beans. They are asked to do so and to harvest the crop and it will not be charged against them as soil depleting acreage. The government needs enlarged quantities of soybean oil for national defense which is the reason the farmers are urged to increase their soybean crop over last year.

More than 2,000 homeowners in Grundy county will ask for Homestead Exemption Tax credit. Last year there were 1,988. The last date for making application for Homestead Exemption credit will be on June 30. Property owners who have bought or built new residences the past year into which they have moved must see to it that the contract or deed for their property is recorded. If it is not, their application for tax exemption can’t be approved.

Assessors when they made their calls on property owners the early part of the year had a large number of Homestead exemption applications signed up. The board of supervisors must pass on all applications for tax exemption. They will complete this work in July. They have all of July to consider applications and to accept or reject applications.

“Life With Henry” starts its engagement on Saturday for three days at the Center Theatre.

Cream cheese … 23 cents per lb.

Graham crackers … 19 cents per 2 lb. box.

Sugar … 57 cents per 10 lb. bag.

Letters to the editor I was traveling near Dike, Iowa, late last Friday night with my mother and two sisters. We had a frightening experience of a driver coming down the wrong way on the highway. We were ran off the road, and I laid on my horn trying to get this person’s attention before they killed someone.

We called 911, and within seconds a patrol car was screaming down the highway trying to catch this white truck that nearly killed myself and three other very important members of my family. I don't know if this was the cause of the cover on the back of my truck to come undone but in seeing this, I took the exit leading into a town called Dike. I drove around trying to find shelter because I hear you people get crazy storms, and I was right in the middle of my worst nightmare. I turned a corner in this small little town, and wouldn't you know it, but we found a whole group of men sitting in a garage drinking some beers. When four women stopped and asked for help, these men moved a car and guided me to back up right into the garage. On behalf of my mother, whom is 80, and my sisters who aren't that young, I want to give a big shout out to these men. I don't know who you are, but the house is a block off the highway, and I think it’s white. You guys went beyond the call of coolness, and I thank you all. Best regards and God bless this wonderful country we live in.

Thank you again, Deanna Allen -just a girl from Ohio

Leading by example?

Late on June 10, I received notice through the mail to remove “tall grass and very obnoxious weeds” on the property where my wife and I live. It went on to say I had until the 15th before fines would occur and the city would remedy the problem. This gave us just four days to take care of the situation. What if my mail was delivered to another address, or we were out of town? I admit that some maintenance needed to come up to speed, largely due to a recent surgery and doctor’s orders.

My wife and I did the right thing and took care of the problem. That being said, we also knew that the city’s concrete dump was in much worse shape than our property. Some problems can also be found at the city’s tree dump. A very short walk around the block will also show that at least five of our neighbors also would fall into violation of the city’s ordinance. There are properties in our community that have not been mowed once while the rest of us have mowed many times. I am not even going to get into nitpicking about living in an agricultural community, but let’s face it, major municipalities in Iowa can have chickens but not even 4H youth in Grundy Center!

The fact that no one contacted us before the letter and that other people and the city seem exempt can make citizens feel targeted and singled out. We’re a small community in an agricultural region; I remember when the majority of our citizens were retired farmers. Things definitely have changed but can we afford to forget we were originally formed with communication and compassion? A simple conversation can, and usually does, solve many problems.

I will conclude with a couple of things I learned as a teenager in Grundy Center: It takes an assortment of people to make a community, not just one. You also need to lead by example. Everyone know “do as I say not as I do” is a plan for disaster.

Paul Sealman P.S. Isn’t it about time that the Grundy Center City Council meetings be televised on channel 11 as it was originally planned?

My Three Cents Worth

The return of the King

No athlete in modern sports history rewrote and perhaps saved his legacy more than one LeBron James did in the last week, ending a 52-year title drought in a city known only for sporting failure in the process. Even as only a casual fan of the NBA, I can say with certainty that this is one of the defining sports moments of my lifetime. We’ll be talking about the great Cleveland comeback and the King’s redemption decades from now—it’s still hard to believe it really happened.

I, like pretty much everyone else with even a passing interest in the finals, was ready to close the book on the Cavs and accept another close, but no cigar season: first, when Golden State won the first two games of the series, and again when the Warriors went ahead 3-1 with a chance to close it out in Oakland. This was, in fact, the greatest regular season team of all time, and Steph Curry had replaced LeBron as the face of the league with his back-toback MVP awards, boyish charm and a daughter with a knack for stealing the show at press conferences. Cleveland just wasn’t good enough to beat these guys, even with James’s more or less self-assembled team and handpicked head coach in Tyronn Lue. Trading for Kevin Love seemed like a huge mistake. Outside of LeBron and Kyrie Irving, no one on this team could score. JR Smith could hit shots that he had no business even taking and then miss eight layups in a row.

Once again, the Warriors seemed to have the Cavs figured out, even as Curry never really found his stroke offensively throughout most of the series.

But something changed in game five. James and Irving went off for 41

By Rob Maharry points each, and this downtrodden team seemed to have regained some of its swagger in the absence of Draymond Green, the undersized, loudmouthed, groin-hitting heart and soul of the Warriors, something of a Charles Barkley 2.0. Still, I thought, there are two more games, including one in the Bay Area.

There’s no way that the Cavs pull this off.

Green was back for game six, but it didn’t matter. At this point, James was a one man wrecking machine more focused than we’d ever seen him in his 13-year career, and he put up 41 points again en route to a 115-101 victory.

Suddenly, the impossible seemed possible. LeBron might just bring a title back to the area where he grew up, and he might just do it by overcoming a deficit that no team had ever overcome against one of the greatest teams of all time.

And he did. If game seven didn’t cement his legacy as one of the greatest to ever play the game of basketball, I’m not sure what will. For all of the criticisms of LeBron over the years—“The Decision,” the argument that he isn’t clutch and defers to teammates in big moments, his lack of the sociopathic obsession with winning at all costs that consumed Kobe and Jordan, and the perception that he’s soft—he put them to rest with a triple-double performance that included one of the greatest defensive plays in NBA history with just over a minute to go, a Superman-esque block on Andre Iguodala as he went to the basket for what looked like an easy go-ahead layup.

Irving played his part as well, nailing what proved to be the decisive three in a one-on-one matchup with Curry and outdueling the MVP throughout the series, and the pandemonium in Cleveland commenced despite the fact that the Cavs were playing 2,500 miles away. I’ve spent my whole life in Iowa and have only driven through Ohio once, but I felt like a Clevelander that night. The underdog won in the most dramatic fashion, and even a neutral observer can appreciate that.

I’m not sure where King James will go from here, but with three NBA titles and Finals MVP awards in each one of them, he has nothing left to prove to anyone. I’m sure he’d like to win a few more and put himself in the conversation with His Airness, Magic, Kobe, Kareem and some of the other all-time greats, and with five or six good years left in him, that’s entirely possible. But regardless of what happens, he’ll be able to look back at 2016 as the year he put a team on his back, defied the odds and took down Goliath. Curry may be the prince of the NBA right now, but LeBron is still the king.

It’s been a little over a week now since the latest mass shooting/terrorist attack/hate crime/whatever you want to call it based on your political beliefs, and once again, we as a nation seem completely void of answers or solutions.

If you’re a conservative, radical Islam is the only culprit, and if you’re a liberal, it’s all about guns. We’ve heard this before, and unfortunately, we’ll probably hear it again. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Trump congratulated himself for being “right,” and Hillary gave a perfectly scripted speech crafted not to offend anyone. Neither seems to have much of a clue on what to do other than give the government more power to monitor people in hopes that these problems will somehow just go away in the future (they won’t). Four bills were proposed in the Senate in the aftermath of the shooting, two from Republicans and two from Democrats, and they all failed.

One of the negative byproducts of a country based on the idea of “freedom” is that it also entails the freedom to do horrible things that most of us would never even dream of.

While we offer another round of thoughts and prayers to the victims of the Pulse Massacre, there seems to be a creeping resignation to the fact that while we all feel for the victims and offer our sympathies, there’s nothing even resembling a consensus on what to do going forward. Something has to change one of these years.

Letter to the editor To the people who recently stole flowers from the Grundy Center Cemetery: I am sad for you that you have such a family life that you cannot think of other things to do with your life than steal flowers to hurt others.

This close to Father’s Day, you tok flowers from a much loved father’s grave. My family is a long way away from home and were totally shocked to know this happened.

Please find something else to do with your life other than stealing flowers.

Felix Grundy Festival offers new entertainment, fun for the whole family

By MICHAELA KENDALL The Grundy Register GRUNDY CENTER – This year ’s Felix Grundy Festival promises to offer all the tried-andtrue festival favorites, as well as several fun, new additions.

The most notable addition to this year ’s festival is the c a r n i v a l r i d e s b e i n g o ff e r e d by entertainment company Amusement Associates.

On both Friday, July 8 and Saturday, July 9, there will be rides set up in the festival area.

There will be around 10 to 12 rides, which will be suitable for kids all ages. The rides will range from thrill rides to a mechanical bull to jousting and more.

In order to fund the rides, the Felix Grundy Festival committee will be offering pre-

sale wristbands and tickets up until the start of the festival. There are two different wristbands for sale: one for Friday and one for Saturday. The wristbands will allow the rider to go on almost every ride, with the exception of the mechanical bull, for the day that the wristband is valid for. On Friday, the rides will run from noon to 9 p.m., and on Saturday they will run from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Another new event at this year’s festival is an outdoor movie showing at the courthouse yard, sponsored by Engelkes Abels Funeral Home. The movie being shown is “Nanny McPhee,” the 2005 Fantasy/Comedy about a man who hires a nanny to care for his seven rambunctious children, who have chased away

all previous nannies. This nanny, Nanny McPhee, uses mystical powers to instill discipline to the children. When the children's great-aunt threatens to separate the kids, the family pulls together under the guidance of Nanny McPhee.The movie will be showing at 8:30 p.m., and has a run time of 1 hour and 39 minutes.

Popcorn will be sponsored by the Center Theatre.Among other events new to this year’s festival are several new Gazebo Entertainment acts, including: the Johnson Family Strings, Brazilian Twins, Magic Mike and more.

News from Ivester Grundy Center Community School FATHER’S DAY District Foundation 2015 Fundraising Visitors from Wisconsin to the Jer-

Members of the Timothy Christian School graduating class of 2016 are L to R: Michael Pruisner, son of Todd and Liz Pruisner; Aaron Zinnecker, son of Brad and Wendy Zinnecker; Gwendolyn Thorne, daughter of Scott and Valerie Thorne; and Jacob Olthoff, son of Ed and Betty Olthoff. Also pictured is Principal, Janna Voss.

Timothy Christian School Class of 2016 Timothy Christian School celebrated the graduation of four eighth graders on May 26 at First Christian Reformed Church of rural Wellsburg. The students chose as their class verse, Jeremiah 6:16, “Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is and walk in it..” Pastor Rick Vollema, of Pleasant Valley Reformed Church, addressed the graduates on living out the message from their verse. The eighth graders then performed a skit that depicted various highlights from their years at Timothy Christian.

Diplomas were awarded to the graduates by Board Chairman, Ryan

Bakker. They were presented with Study Bibles by Principal, Janna Voss who then spoke briefly to the graduates and shared selections that each had written concerning the legacy they would be leaving as they moved on to high school. Michael Pruisner and Gwendolyn Thorne will be attending Aplington-Parkersburg High School. Aaron Zinnecker will be moving with his family to New York State. Jacob Oltoff and his parents have not yet made a decision about where he will attend high school.

Mary Zimmermann, the graduates’ writing teacher was unable to attend but wrote these words about

her students: “A legacy is a gift, something handed down from one person to another. The dictionary defines legacy as money or property, but I think the greater gift is this meaningful contribution to our Timothy families from the 2016 graduates who are well-grounded in their faith, who embrace their unique gifts, and who focus on making a difference in the lives of others. They are students who pIace little emphasis on accomplishments and recognition. I believe they understand very clearly that their value comes from who they are at their core, and Whose they are in their hearts."

A good catch and going for more!

The week of June 18 was just what I expected, busy busy busy.

Birthdays, Father's Day and company. Company is always the most fun because lots of helping hands make the work faster and easier. The fun started Saturday the 18th with a 2 pm birthday party for my 2-year-old great-grandson Carson Clark. Parents Eric and Chelsea put the cake in his hands and this is what you get.

Party guests were from Dike, Waterloo, Fort Dodge and Cedar Falls.

One party for Saturday has ended and it is time to celebrate with Joe and Rita Galloway. The 50th anniversary party was well attended at Fox Ridge and Joe and Rita introduced the original wedding party and then Joe and Rita did the Bride and Groom wedding dance with music provided by Rita's brothers, Don and Ron. Wonderful entertainment.

On to Sunday the Father's Day for all men that are important in the lives of family and friends. Charles Paige on this June 19 was his time to celebrate a birthday and Father's Day. Charles attended church with his family of Suzan Bienfang, Diane Paige and Joel and Chris Paige and Amber and Ava Paige of Hubbard.

Enjoying the hamburger cookout at the Paige home were family that also included Wayne, Marlene and Paul Paige, Gloria Gerstenkorn, Eric, Chelsea and Carson, Mike, Amy and Abby, Martin, Wendy, Haleigh, Nick and Maccoy. Kyle and his friend Leah and Ari stopped by later in the afternoon with birthday wishes.

Party on world I'm taking a nap!!

Spring Clean-up was successful with 20+ volunteers and business owners helping clean sidewalks, wash windows, plant flowers and pull weeds on along G Avenue. An informational meeting was held on May 9th with Ed Bausch from Iowa Economic Development and Jim Thompson of Main Street Iowa to discuss a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) application process.

Main Street Grundy Center has received a $5,000 grant from Main Street Iowa and efforts continue to match those funds locally. These funds will be used to complete the initial phase of the downtown revitalization project, such as hiring an architect firm to evaluate each of the buildings in the downtown district, prioritize them by need, and meet with those building owners to discuss needs, possible renovation features, costs, and their interest in participating in the façade renovation program. Former Old Baptist Church is not included at this time. So far ten of our local business have bet with our Small Business Development Center representative, with more on a waiting list. Dave Stefl will compete on June 16, 2016 to compete with three businesses at sub-state for a chance to win $9,000 in the “Open for Business” competition.

Jennifer Havens, CEO of Grundy County Memorial Hospital, made comment on the contract that is being presented during the meeting. This contract is between the City of Grundy Center full time Paramedics and the Grundy County Memorial Hospital. This contract will allow the Paramedics to fill in with the Emergency Department if needed, when they are not out on a call.

Mark Jungling, Grundy County Courthouse employee, commented on the need to find a space to store building materials, lawn mower, snow blower equipment, etc. once the building project of the new annex begins. The County has a 12’x16’ garage on skids currently on their property. His request was if this garage could be moved to the very southwest corner of our 801 7th Street property during this 10 month construction period.

Miller moved and Ammerman seconded action Resolution 2016-30, a resolution authorizing fund to be used to purchase new planters and trash receptacles for G Avenue. Discussion began with Tiffany Carson, Main Street Design Committee Chairman, explaining that these funds will be saved and put with grant funds to purchase more planters and updated trash receptacles for G Avenue. This purchase will not be made until Fall 2016 when word on grant arrives. Miller moved and Ammerman seconded action to table this resolution until Fall 2016 when the purchases are actually made. Motion carried four ayes.

Mayor Buhrow opened the discussion on the building permit fee schedule. Sawyer explained that the Finance Committee had met and discussed a possible sliding fee for commercial properties only. They felt that the residential fee scale was sufficient for the needs. The Finance Committee recommended the sliding fee scale of 0.50% of project cost for the first $100,000; then 0.25% from $100,000 to $500,000; and then 0.10% for the balance. There was also a discussion about the possibility of a zoning administrator per visit fee. The discussion also included the need to remove verbiage from the code regarding non-profit organizations, such as churches, schools, and U.S. Governmental organization not being charged a fee. Sawyer was instructed to move forward with an ordinance with these changes along with adding a definition of a project cost.

Mayor Buhrow opened the discussion on Chapter 69.08 –No Parking Zones in our Code of Ordinances. The Public Safety Committee had looked at all of them that are currently in our code and made suggestions on some deletions and additions needed to bring our Code up to date. Discussion was had mainly around the narrow streets around our schools buildings. Sawyer was instructed to move forward with an ordinance amending the current Code.

Finance Committee made no further comment.

Public Safety Committee made comment Officer Fox designed new patches for entire department.
