A lengthy Logan City Council agenda was cut short May 21, due to a quorum not being present at the meeting.

To facilitate council action on the amendment of the FY2011-2012 budget, and to avoid extra expense to republish, council member Dee Clark called in to vote on the item. Present at the

meeting were council members Dennis Crum, Wes Greve and Mayor Randy Fetter. Council members Skip Johnson, Nick Lefeber and Clark were not in attendance.

Action was also taken on the consent agenda that included approval of the May 7, minutes, amended to include more of the letter from the city attorney regarding his response to the citizens’ complaint letter which was turned over to the

State Ombudsman.

Winther stated she had not heard from any council member on what to change in the April 23, minutes, so they stand as is. The council set May 29, as a special council meeting and June 4, as the next regular council meeting; approved the claims register and building permits for Robert Bradshaw, 1021 Skyline Drive, fence; Jenna Spencer, 218 N. Maple Avenue, 20’ by 10’ deck; Scott Bonham, 1010

Skyline Drive, 16’ x 20’ shed with porch; Cindy Wright, 512 N. Fourth Avenue, concrete sidewalk and patio; Kevin Fitzgibbon, 420 N. Park Avenue, 10’ x 10’ deck and privacy fence; Deborah Hoffmeier, 214 E. Fourth Street, sidewalk.

During the time for citizens questions and comments, Chris Hartwig questioned why a quorum wasn’t present.

“The council set the date for the public hearing

and council meeting and they can’t all be here to take care of it?” Hartwig asked. “I don’t understand. Now you have to have a special meeting which will cost the city more.”

Bill DeWitt asked about the publication of minutes and if there was a time limit as to when they are required to be published.

Area teen spends three Primary weeks on mission in China election set Mary Darling for June 5 Editor

Rebekah Mether, daughter of Richard and Tammi Mether, Moorhead, recently had the chance to fulfill a prophecy she received as a child.

“When I was eight years old, God told me to go to China and tell people about Jesus,” Mether said.

“Our friends were planning a trip and asked if I wanted to go and I said yes.”

Mether went with three people from Moorhead, Minn., and three from Canada, and had translators working with them.

“The goal of the trip was to tell people about God’s love for them,” Mether said. “My mom and I designed a project called, “Toi Dac Biet,” Vietnamese for “I Am Special,” for 120 kindergarten kids. We helped the children make necklaces with the supplies we took

COUNCIL: Shortened agenda MISSION: Teen trip to China FROM PAGE 1 Angela Winther said they have to be published within 15 days of the meeting. They can be amended but don’t have to be republished.

Don Blackford questioned if city employee raises were already approved and Bob Dean asked at what point in time citizens could have made comment on the raises?

“We start talking about raises in January when we start doing the budget,” Winther said. “The council usually has me figure the budget with the higher percentage and then they see how the budget goes.

They usually wait until April or May to settle on a percentage for raises.”

Dean said the citizens didn’t know what percent was decided until the last meeting.

“To be honest with you, there’s probably many people in this room that haven’t seen a raise in years. Frankly I have a problem giving raises when the economy is the way it is,” Dean said.

Mayor Fetter said they had spoken with other cities in the area as to what percent of raises they were giving.

“One thing that did help, was our property taxes went down substantially,” Winther said.

John Espenmiller wanted the council to know he had walked through Milliman Park and all of the trees removed had been marked by the state forester.

“Many of the marked trees have not been removed,” Espenmiller said.

Winther updated the council on the status of the citizen complaint filed

with OSHA that claimed G&M Refrigeration left an electric breaker box uncovered exposing employees to live electric parts during construction of the new shelter.

“Elmer (Logan Police Chief) went to the shelter to check it out, took pictures and sent them to OSHA,” Winther said. “He called OSHA and told them the shelter was built by volunteers.”

Winther said Smith was told by the OSHA representative that volunteers do not fall under OSHA guidelines Winther reported that as of May 21, total expenses for the new shelter stood at $10,574 with estimated expenses from G&M Refrigeration of $1,305 and $500 from Mike Hinkel included in that amount. A total of $2,700 in donations have been committed to the project.

FROM PAGE 1 along.”

Mether said her team also visited nursing homes in China and gave out bananas and cookies.

“We purchased cooking oil,” Mether said. “It is very expensive for the Chinese to buy.”

They visited mountain villages and gave gifts to hundreds of children and teachers. The team also had a t-shirt project and gave out hundreds of them to children to decorate.

“We made a photo button for each child with their picture on it,” Mether said. “We did manicures and haircuts for anyone who wanted it.”

The team took along beautiful homemade canvas bags made by Karen Burmeister of the Pisgah area, filled with school supplies. These were given to several classrooms in Vietnam and China. They also gave gifts of coloring books, pens and suckers, to people in the markets in Vietnam.

According to Mether, their travels took them in Vietnam to Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) and in China to Kunming, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, and small mountain villages.

Their trip also included

some sightseeing, Mether said.

“In Vietnam we went to the Mekong Delta, saw floating markets with hundreds of boats loaded with produce, and boat people who lived on the river, and a coconut candy factory. The Mekong Delta was my favorite part of the trip,” she said.

Communicating with the people in the countries was a challenge and they spoke through translators most of the time.

“Very few people in the villages spoke English. I learned some Chinese words like hello and thank you, and Vietnamese words for hello and good work.”

Mether said. “Money was hard to understand. It cost me 800,000 Vietnamese dong for a few packages of postcards…which was only about $6 American dollars.”

Throughout their travels they stayed in hotels in Vietnam and China, but also stayed two nights in the mountain villages.

“There were no showers and they had just gotten electricity a few months before our visit,” Mether said. “Houses had dirt floors and a grocery store was shelves set up in a person’s house. They were built for short people and I am not short. I was also the only red head

in the area.

One of the scariest things, Mether said, was when their car was almost hit by a water buffalo.

There was a variety of different foods to try in the two countries.

“In Vietnam we had elephant ear fish which was very good,” Mether said. “Lots of rice and fresh fruit, fish and BBQ pork for breakfast.”

The menu in China also included rice and noodles for breakfast.

“I did not eat the fried bamboo worms, but my friends said they were really good and healthier than French fries,” she said.

From the experience, Mether learned that, “We are very blessed and rich compared to the people I met.” “The people in Vietnam and China were very friendly, hospitable and generous.”

As far as what influence Mether felt her group had on the people, she wanted them to know that they are loved by God and many people heard that message, she said.

“This was the first mission trip for me, but not the last,” Mether said.

“This same team is going again in March 2013, and I hope to join them again.

I appreciate all the people who gave money and encouragement for this trip. I was blessed.”

GOCHENOUR: Spent second semester as Iowa Page FROM PAGE 1 to get a Bill passed and the amount of work that has to be done before it goes to the Legislature.

“There are all kinds of hoops to jump through,” she said. “If the majority party didn’t like it, it didn’t have to pass it.”

Gochenour worked as one of three Legislative Service Agency Pages in the offices with the drafters and editors of Bills.

“I would take the drafters revisions to the editors and then the editors copy to the typists,” she said.

“It’s kind of confusing unless you are there.”

Gochenour said 10 drafters of Bills and nine editors work in the office.

“Some days there may have been nothing to do, and some days we were running all morning,”

Gochenour said.

She began her duties in January and completed them in May. Her hours were, Monday through Thursday from 7:30 to 4 p.m., or 8 to 4:30 p.m. or she would stay until they were done. Her latest shift was until 10 p.m.

“If the Legislature didn’t adjourn for the day, we couldn’t leave,” Gochenour said. “Even if we didn’t have anything to do.”

Something that impressed Gochenour was how immaculate they kept the Capitol.

“They were always cleaning or repairing something,” she said. She also said she got a completely different feeling in the atmosphere between the Senate and the House.

“People may think it’s really easy, but they do a

“There are all kinds of hoops to jump through.”

Kaitlyn Gochenour referring to the passage of a Bill lot of work,” Gochenour said.

While in Des Moines, Gochenour lived in an apartment with a roommate not far from the Capitol. She had to pay the rent for it as well as utilities and groceries, but was paid to work as a Page. Her roommate was from Mason City and worked as a Page in the Senate.

According to Gochenour, the experience taught her a lesson about politics.

“Everyone looks at politics like it’s easy. They don’t understand how much

work all the other people put into it besides the politicians,” she said. “I know how long drafters and editors worked. They don’t get enough credit for what they do.”

While in Des Moines she met Gov. Branstad, State Rep. Matt Wind-schitl, and many other people. She was able to go up in the dome and was surprised that the outside dome you see is really not the dome.

“It blew my mind,” she said. “You can walk up there in the area. I also didn’t know the Capitol had a basement and attic.”

While working as a Page, Gochenour also took an online class and participated at Logan-Magnolia as a wrestling cheerleader on the weekends.

“I like to keep busy,” she said.

Of her experience, she said she really liked it.

“But some parts, as with any job, you get frustrated on days. Overall it was a very good experience. You need to know you have to give up some of your senior year, but it’s definitely was worth it for the friendships I made and the experience to live on my own for six months.”

Gochenour, the daughter of Paul Gochenour and Lana Shoemaker, will be attending Simpson College in the fall majoring in Political Science with plans to go to law school in the future.

Editorial Down Home

By Sandy Turner Sandy Turner writes a weekly column “Down Home” which is published in several newspapers in the Midwest. She puts a humorous spin on issues that revolve around families and every day life, drawing from her own experiences.

Taking a nap in the dentist’s chair I called to let her know she had another dentist appointment that day. Her reaction was what I had expected – she dropped the phone, threw herself on the ground and began sobbing. Repeating the word, “noooooo, noooo.”

Many of us want to have this same reaction when it’s time to hit the dentist chair, but I couldn’t blame her, she was 11 and had already been through a lot with teeth that made the record books.

Celebrating their first wedding anniversary, my daughter is beginning to show signs of wanting to start a family. I used this as a way to get her back into the dentist office, since she had avoided it like the plague after feeling she had been tortured as a child through the hands that held instruments resembling pliers and drills.

I told her if she didn’t get her teeth in good health before she got pregnant, they could possibly fall out. OK, I know that’s a little harsh, but it did get her to think about making an appointment.

Her phobia is deep rooted, and I can’t say I blame her.

For reasons unknown, as a child she had two rows of baby teeth on the bottom and her two front teeth fused to the ones next to them. Trying to make room for her permanent teeth to grow in, where they should, was how her nightmare began.

Trying to keep a kid calm when they have their mouth propped open with a rubber block and an oral surgeon trying to pull out tiny teeth didn’t go well. Multiple trips and finally the bottom teeth were back to normal. We never made it to the dentist to get the front four taken care of as she fell off the monkey bars and her older sister’s elbow knocked them out.

Once the permanent teeth came in and after three years of braces, she was good to go, although going to the dentist wasn’t topping her list of fun things to do.

I was surprised when she called recently and asked if I could drive her to a dentist appointment. She’s 26, I thought, and she still can’t get to the dentist by herself?

This was going to be an all day event – sedation dentistry – to have her teeth cleaned and some dental work done, while she was sleeping.

She was already pretty loopy by the time I picked her up in the morning, which was a good thing, because she wasn’t nervous. I dropped her off and waited for the call to come back and get her. Several hours later, they called to say she was done.

Maybe it was the drugs or the laughing gas, but she was feeling great about going to the dentist and even said she was going to send him a thank you card. Who sends their dentist a thank you card? Especially from someone who would rather have major surgery than go to the dentist.

Maybe it’s just an old wives’ tale that it weakens your teeth when you’re pregnant – but I believe it’s a mother’s privilege to tell pearly white lies.

Birds of a Feather Revisited Sandy Turner writes a weekly column called, “Down Home,” and it is one of the first things I look for when I open this newspaper. She is always entertaining. One of her past stories , “Birds of a feather flock together,” described how Alfred Hitchcock’s movie, “The Birds,” let her imagination run wild when flocks of birds gathered around. I saw the same movie but birds didn’t frighten me.

Even reading that Tippy Hedron was really under attack by frenzied birds trying to escape a confined space only made me further appreciate the movie.

Her terror in that scene was real, and she suffered minor injuries. Hitchcock was so impressed by the scene, he included it in the movie. Knowing Hedron was not acting during the apparent attack made me enjoy the movie even more.

My close encounters with birds were less spectacular than Turner’s and the wild turkeys. Over the years, I had felt bad when our car accidentally hit a

were unfounded, because we later discovered the culprit. A small bird had sneaked into our cottage and it picked my turning off the light to fly next to my face.

My second encounter happened in 1995, as I drove south on Interstate 29. The day was hot, and the driver’s side window was open. I drove behind a semi-truck at 70 mph as we met a northbound truck.

An unfortunate robin picked that moment to cross the Interstate. It barely avoided the truck ahead of me, but the wave of air the truck was pushing caught the bird. Even that should not have been so bad, but as the two trucks met, the blast of air between them grew stronger and took the robin north toward my car and into the

window. During my momentary horror, the bird smashed into my sternum and bounced onto the passenger seat. It felt as if a baseball had struck and my heart began to fibrillate so violently I was afraid I might faint. I quickly parked on the median until I felt fit enough to continue on to my historical society meeting. My heart beat irregularly at times for another week or so, but it didn’t bother me enough to consult a doctor.

While not as catastrophic as a collision with a wild turkey, my encounter was just as memorable, especially since a doctor later said I was lucky to be alive.

It there is a bird heaven, one can imagine a wild turkey meeting a robin.

One says to the other, “how did you get here?”

muskmelon and watermelon varieties is June 20.

Suggested muskmelon varieties for Iowa include Earlisweet, Eclipse, Athena, Aphrodite, Superstar, Ambrosia, Hale’s Best, Earlidew and Passport.

Excellent watermelon varieties include: Crimson Sweet, Royal Sweet, Sangria, Crunchy Red, Gypsy, Millionaire, Sweet Beauty, Yellow Baby, and Amarillo.

A seeded variety must be planted with seedless watermelon varieties for proper pollination. Pollinator seeds are often included in seedless watermelon seed packets.

Muskmelon and watermelon are usually planted in hills. Plant four or five seeds per hill at a depth of one inch. Later, remove all but two or three healthy, well-spaced plants per hill

when seedlings have one or two true leaves.

Hills of muskmelon should be spaced three to five feet apart with five to seven feet between rows.

Watermelon hills and rows should be spaced six to eight feet apart. If garden space is limited, bush-type varieties of muskmelon and watermelon are available.

To obtain an earlier crop, start melon transplants indoors. Sow seeds indoors three to four weeks before the anticipated outdoor planting date.

Plantable containers, such as peat pots, work best as both plant and container are transplanted directly into the garden, resulting in little damage to the transplant’s root system.

Sow three or four seeds per container, later remove all

but two seedlings.

Transplant outdoors when plants have one or two true leaves. Harden the plants outdoors for a few days prior to planting to lessen transplant stress.

Initially place the transplants in a shady, protected location and then gradually expose the plants to longer periods of direct sun.

Melons are relatively easy to grow. Their basic requirements are full fun and a fertile, well-drained soil. The planting site should receive at least six hours of direct sun each day. Heavy, poorly drained soils can be improved by incorporating organic matter such as compost or well-rotted manure, into the soil.

Muskmelon and watermelon are warm-season crops. Plant melons after the danger of frost is past and soil temperatures have warmed to 60 to 70 degrees. Melons can be planted in mid-May in central Iowa. Gardeners in southern Iowa can plant about one week earlier.

Plant one week later in northern areas of the state.

bird, or a pheasant collided with the grill of our car.

Had not our car and the birds met at the same place at the same time, the birds would have lived their lives as they were meant to. I never felt fear, only mild regret.

That changed for the first time when we lived in England. Our 450 year-old thatched roofed cottage was supposedly haunted and though we don’t believe in ghosts, my wife and I saw and heard some things we still can’t explain. One dark and stormy night, I drove home to get something for my wife who was working in the base library. Snow and sleet rattled on the windows as a strong gale roared about the house. I turned off the light as I prepared to leave. At that instant, something made a whirring noise so close to my face, I could feel the draft. My heart jumped to my throat, as I turned the light back on, expecting to see something. The room was empty and I suddenly decided I didn’t want to be alone. Visions of evil spirits

truth is jettisoned, a culture is left with no objective standards upon which to make decisions. All choices are to be considered of equal value and all results of those choices are to be equally accepted and tolerated. The result is what we have today that is

manifested in the killing of pre-born children, using live embryos for research, re-defining marriage so same-sex couples can “wed,” doling out end-oflife care so the elderly feel obligated to refuse treatment to make room for younger patients, and the

list goes on.

When the most vulnerable among us (the preborn) are not safe in what should be the most protected environment possible (the womb) then can any of us be safe?

Alternative voter Earn Special Olympics check-in set for medals at competition Harrison County

Fishing derby at Arrowhead Park June 2

For the first time, Harrison County voters at the June 5 Primary Election will have the option of using an Iowa driver’s license or voter ID card to expedite the check-in process. County Aud-itor Susan Bonham said barcode scanners will be available to voters in all precincts for a faster and easier check-in procedure.

“The scanners read the barcode on the back of the voter’s driver’s license in order to search for and select the correct voter.

The process is fast and accurate, but it is the voter’s choice whether to use their driver’s license,” she said.

“For voters who do not have a driver’s license or choose not to use it, the precinct official will type in the voter’s name the same way they have done in previous elections,” Bonham said.

The system will also work with a non-driver ID card from the Iowa Department of Transportation or a voter ID card from the county auditor.

Bring your fishing gear and enjoy a fun-filled afternoon at Arrowhead Park at the annual Kids’ Fishing Derby.

Come out to Arrowhead Park from 1 to 3 p.m., Saturday, June 2, to catch bluegill, bass and catfish residing in the lake.

This event is held in connection with Iowa’s free fishing weekend, so a license is not required for Iowa residents. All other Department of Natural Resource fishing regulations apply. Free gifts will be given to all children entered in the derby.

Children must be under 16 years of age to participate in the derby. Weather permitting.

For more information please call (712) 4852295.

“I believe this is another important step in my goal of ensuring that every election in Harrison County is conducted in a safe, secure and efficient manner,” Bonham said.

This will be the first major election at which the alternative check-in procedure will be offered.

Bonham said she believes the 42 Iowa counties using the alternative process are the first in the nation to scan driver’s licenses and voter ID’s to check-in voters. She added that in the seven counties that have piloted the scanning process over the past six months, voters in large numbers voluntarily chose to use their identification cards.

The scanning process was developed by Cerro Gordo County as a recent improvement to the Precinct Atlas software program. That program has received two national awards and is currently used in 56 Iowa counties.

For more information, contact Harrison County Auditor Susan Bonham at (712) 644-2401.

Sportsmen invited to Pisgah June 5, for DNR discussion The Iowa Department of Natural Resources is hosting an informal gathering of hunters, anglers and trappers to discuss the future direction of hunting, fishing and trapping in Iowa. The meeting is set for 6:30-8:30 p.m., Tuesday, June 5, in the Loess Hills Visitor Center, Pisgah.

Anyone with an interest or opinion on the outdoors is encouraged to attend.

The Iowa DNR will present a brief history on hunting, fishing and trapping in Iowa, including success stories and issues on the horizon facing hunters, trappers and anglers.

“We want to see a good turnout so we can have a frank discussion about Iowa’s natural resources here locally and across the state,” said Scott Peterson, southwest Iowa district wildlife supervisors for the Iowa DNR. “We held similar meetings two years ago and received excellent input that was used to make decisions on where we as an agency should

Through hands-on activities, safety day participants will learn how to prevent farm incidents and how to reduce the extent of injuries if incidents do occur.

focus our efforts with our given resources.”

Peterson said license buyers play a major role on outdoor improvements in Iowa through the fees they pay.

“License dollars go to the Fish and Wildlife Trust Fund. That fund belongs to our license buyers. We are the stewards of that fund, making decisions in their best interest based on science, data and input from license buyers,” Peterson said.

The meeting offers an opportunity for hunters, anglers and trappers to learn more about how their license money is spent and to discuss local priorities with DNR fish, wildlife and law enforcement staff.

Friday, May 18, three athletes from Mosaic competed in the State Level Special Olympics in Ames. All three athletes took home the gold.

Management of flooded timber to be Field Day topic The historic flood along the Missouri River in 2011, had many immediate impacts. In the forest, signs of stress can take days, months and even years to become evident, depending on the tree species, Iowa State University Forestry Exten-sion and the Iowa DNR will host a Forestry Field Day Thursday, May 31, for landowners and

others interested.

Field Day participants will learn about the impacts of floods on trees, signs and stress such as soil loading, disease and insect infestations. Fores-try experts will discuss woodland management options, potential treatments for disease and insect problems, restoring wildlife habitat, as well as cost

share programs specific to forestry practices in flooded areas.

Local, state and federal forestry experts will be onhand throughout the day to discuss practical methods that homeowners can use to track the health of their trees and methods to alleviate problems or restore destroyed timbered areas. Ongoing public

land restoration projects also will be discussed. In the afternoon, participants will tour flooded timber and ongoing restoration efforts in Mills and Fremont counties.

The program will begin at 9 a.m., at the Western Historic Trails Center, Council Bluffs. Travelers should take exit 1B (24th Street exit) on I-80 and

travel south to the first road on the west side of 24th Street. (The intersection is marked with a western historic trails center sign.) The day will end at 4 p.m.

The program is free to all, but registration is encouraged. For more information and to register, call IDNR District Forester Lindsey Barney at

(712) 482-6245. Drinks and snacks will be provided, but participants will need to bring a sack lunch and should dress for outdoor conditions.

More information and the full agenda may be found at www.forestry.iastate.gov under “ E d u c a t i o n a l Opportunities, Field Days.”

ing that a concerned citizen had placed an anonymous call to report that G & M Refrigeration had left an electrical breaker box uncovered, exposing employees to live electrical parts during construction of the new shelter. Chief Smith went to the park to check it out and took pictures of everything. He sent the pictures to OSHA and called them and explained that volunteers are building the shelter. OSHA explained to Chief Smith that volunteers don’t fall under OSHA guidelines. The City Clerk stated she had tried to find out the name of the person that had called OSHA so that she could let them know that there wasn’t an issue because the wires weren’t hooked up and therefore couldn’t harm anyone. OSHA would not give out the name of the caller.

Citizen’s questions/comments: Chris Hartwig stated that the Council set the date for the public hearing and the council meeting and there were not enough council members here at the meeting to take care of the agenda items. He stated that he has been on the council, and there are items on the agenda that are pretty important and need to be taken care of. Now there has to be a special meeting so it’s going to cost the City more money. He also stated that he didn’t know the reasons the council members were not at the meeting, but he thought they could have made a phone call or something to make changes before the publication in the paper. Hartwig also stated to the Park Board that the pavilion looks very nice, and it’s a good asset to the City Park. He said he applauds the Park Board for all of the volunteers that have spent a lot of time getting it done.

Bill DeWitt asked if there is a limit of time in which the minutes are supposed to be published in the newspaper. He stated in the last couple of months he knows some of them have not made it in time.

He asked if there are some now that aren’t making it in time. The Clerk stated that except for one set of minutes, they have been published in the newspaper on time but not always approved by the council. DeWitt asked if there are any ramifications of minutes not being published in time. The Clerk stated that she could be charged with a misdemeanor per State Code. The State Auditor advised her to attach the supporting documents for why minutes were not published in a timely manner to her minutes to alleviate being written up. Mike Johnson stated that the Clerk is responsible to have the minutes published in two weeks.

He asked if the Council doesn’t like the minutes, does the Clerk have to amend them. The Clerk stated that they are amended but they don’t have to be republished. Then they would be approved at a council meeting on the consent agenda with a description of the amendment. Don Blackford asked if the city council raises have already been approved. The City Clerk asked if he meant the city council or city employees. He stated that it was 3%. The City Clerk verified that it was for city employees, and it was approved at the last council meeting. Bob Dean asked at what point would there have been public comment on raises. The City Clerk stated that it was on the agenda at the last council meeting and the one before that. Mr. Dean stated that it was voted on before the citizen’s had a chance to comment.

He said basically you brought it up, you voted on it and approved it, and the public was never given the opportunity to make any comments. The City Clerk stated that raises are discussed beginning in January and February in the budget work sessions, which are open to the public. In April or May the percentage is decided by the council. The Clerk stated that it could have been discussed anytime in there. Mayor Fetter stated that it should have been discussed when it was on the agenda the first time. Mr. Dean stated that they didn’t know what the percentage was until the last meeting, and it was decided and voted on before the citizens had a chance to put their two cents in. He stated that there are several people in this room that haven’t seen a raise in years. Whether this is a small raise or not, it doesn’t matter. He personally works for the government too, and he hasn’t seen a raise in going on two years. He knows there are probably other people that haven’t seen a raise.

He also stated that with the economy the way it’s going, shouldn’t we be trying to reserve every dime that we can to keep in the city coffers before we start spending. He stated that he doesn’t think the employees do a bad job, but he doesn’t feel he does a poor job or half of the people in this community don’t do a poor job. Financially, he has a hard time swallowing giving raises out when the rest of the community doesn’t have that luxury. At no point did he see in a pub-

lic hearing or forum like this the ability to have the public make a comment. The City Clerk stated that every time it has been on the agenda, the Council has had the figures in front of them. Mr. Dean stated that he had not been to every single meeting.

Mike Johnson stated that a resolution has not been passed so any comments would be acceptable now.

Bill DeWitt stated that he was surprised that we didn’t hear anything about what our neighboring communities are with regard to raises.

The City Clerk and Mayor Fetter both stated that we had talked about what the County and other area cities are giving for raises.

The Clerk also stated that she thinks the one thing that helped is the fact that our property taxes went down so substantially. They went down over two dollars (of the city tax levy). Mayor Fetter reminded the citizens that this decrease in taxes is for the next budget year.

John Espenmiller spoke in reference to the cleanup at the park.

At the last meeting it was discussed by the citizens and council members that some trees may have been removed that weren’t marked by the state forester. Mr. Espenmiller went to the park and verified that any trees that were removed had been marked. He stated that a great many trees that were marked have not been removed yet. Another statement made at the last meeting was that the people that cleaned at the park created a road. Mr. Espenmiller visited with some residents of Logan that have lived here for a long time, and they said that from where the old boy scout shelter used to be and down that hill that spills out into the park, there was a road. The City took a road grader up there over fifty years ago and flattened it all out so the kids would have a place to sleigh ride. He stated that if it gives the appearance of a road, it was the City that created it, not the people who were cleaning up the park.

Gary Nordby had mowed a wide path to help with the removal of the trees and brush that were taken out. Mr. Espenmiller stated that he could not imagine in any circumstance that Mr. Nordby would continue to mow a twenty foot wide path through the park. He stated that a four to six foot wide path is going to be sufficient for a walking trail.

Nikki Allen stated that the Park Board is raising money for the survey at Milliman Park. They will be done soon.

Chamber update: Chris Hartwig stated that the Chamber is working hard on the 4th of July cel-
