Lake lawsuit trial appears imminent

BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

ST. PAUL — Due to a deadline that likely won’t be met, the lake level trial scheduled next March is expected to proceed.

Parties involved in the lawsuit filed by the White Bear Lake Restoration Association against the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) met July 12 at DNR headquarters to discuss the looming deadline in the settlement agreement.

That agreement, which put the lawsuit on hold for three years, included a stipulation that the DNR support a legislative proposal to fully fund the feasibility and design of a project that would move six communities to a surface water supply system.

Those six communities are White Bear Lake, White Bear Township, Mahtomedi, North St. Paul, Shoreview and Vadnais Heights. The deadline is Aug. 1, 2016.

White Bear Lake City Attorney Roger Jensen said the DNR called the meeting to discuss the likelihood the Legislature would go into special session by Aug. 1 and if it does, the likelihood a provision would be included to fund the surface water feasibility study.

“If that funding doesn’t happen, the settlement will be terminated,” Jensen pointed out. “The consensus was that won’t happen so it appears apparent we will go to trial next March.”

The group also discussed “mundane things” like submitting a report to District Court Judge Margaret Marrinan in advance of an upcoming status meeting. Deadlines were considered on pre-trial

The first-time event was organized by White Bear Lake Area High School student Sydney Peterson and Mahtomedi High School student Isabel Birkeland to raise funds to help drill a well for a primary school in the Ugandan village of Orapado. The event exceeded the goal of $1,500 set by the organizers. At right: With White Bear Lake in the background, Mya Geiger and Genna Viggiano carry water jugs back toward West Park.

The jugs, which can weigh up to 40 pounds, were used to illustrate the amount of water villagers carry every day.

Air assault by helicopter

BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

DEBRA NEUTKENS | PRESS PUBLICATIONS

The Minnesota Mosquito Control District uses Benson Airport as a staging area for aerial application of BTI, a natural product containing bacterium that wipes out larvae.

Last year was a record year for mosquitoes.

“They just kept coming,” recalled Mike McClean, public affairs coordinator for the Metropolitan Mosquito Control District (MMCD). “We treated more acreage last year with a helicopter than ever before.”

And this year?

“We’re on the same pace,” he said. “There’s been a lot of good rainfall. When that happens, there is significant mosquito production. We’re hoping the second half of the year is drier and more typical.”

An inch of rain prompts a call to the helicopter service contracted by the MMCD. Benson Airport serves as the staging area for mosquito control.

Hoppers on the helicopters are loaded with organic granules made from ground-up corn cobs. The dry product, called BTI (Bacillus thuringiensis israel-

ensis), contains a natural soil bacterium that kills mosquito larvae lurking in swamps and other areas of standing water. The control product poses no risk to humans or animals.

The MMCD pays close attention to mosquito species before treatment.

Inspectors sample known breeding sites to identify species after each rainfall. If the species is a human biting mosquito or a species that has potential to spread disease, the site will be treated.

“We only treat when we find those mosquitoes,” McLean said.

Of the 51 species in Minnesota, most are rare.

The most common is Aedes vexans, a mosquito that breeds in depressions that fill with rain water.

“Few that are abundant are important,” noted University of Minnesota entomologist Roger Moon.

For the 25th year, Twin Cities teens are spending part of their summer participating in Summer Youth Players (SYP) at Lakeshore Players Theatre in White Bear Lake.

This year, the teens take on the fractured comedy “The Trials of Robin Hood.”

The show is a family-friendly adventure featuring familiar characters like Maid Marian, Prince John and the evil Sheriff of Nottingham… but with a twist.

The performance is a culmination of a three-week camp where students get a full theatrical experience both on stage and backstage. Aaron Fiskradatz leads the teens for his fifth year as director and said, “Putting on a two-act play with these ‘Summer Youth Players’ students is the highlight of my year.”

Trash hauler’s bankruptcy prompts city to hire legal help

BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE — The city’s refuse hauler is in Chapter 11 bankruptcy court and for sale to the highest bidder.

Once the sale of Troje’s Trash is fi nal, residents will have a new company in charge of their garbage and recyclables. The city just hopes it isn’t a bank.

City Attorney Roger Jensen told the City Council July 12 that a bankruptcy judge approved a proposal that all of Troje’s assets be put out for bid to satisfy its creditors. The largest creditor is Vermillion State Bank, which funded the company’s equipment purchase when Troje’s won the city contract. The bank has made it known that if bids are too low, it will take over the business.

Jensen called the bank’s move a “stalking horse” bid. “Google it,” he said. “It sets a level for other bidders who must meet the amount or they won’t win the company.”

The city retained a legal fi rm that specializes in bankruptcy proceedings to appear at a July 13 hearing on its behalf. “We put the judge on notice that the city is concerned the bank does not have the experience to take over an operation like that, especially the city’s contract,” Jensen said. “The judge said ‘duly noted.’”

White Bear Lake is prohibited from terminating the contract, which pays Troje’s $68,500 a month.

Bankruptcy is an automatic stay.

According to Jensen, the city was not satisfied with the service when the owner’s son took over and seriously considered canceling the contract.

“Then they fi led bankruptcy, which stopped us

from doing that,” Jensen explained. “Our contract is Troje’s largest asset.”

The legal fi rm, Kennedy & Graven, will bill the city at its municipal rate, Jensen said, which he expects will be a reasonable number.

Jensen asked the council to confi rm with a motion the city’s actions in the matter, which it did, adding a $10,000 cap. Legal fees will be paid from the refuse fund.

A closed session was also called at the end of the meeting to discuss tactics related to pending litigation regarding Troje’s. Internal issues were cited for the company’s troubles.

At least three national haulers are interested in purchasing the city’s contract. It is unclear whether the city will be legally bound to a new owner.

Final bids must be submitted by Aug. 10.

WHITE BEAR LAKE CITY COUNCIL NOTES The White Bear Lake City Council conducted the following business at its July 12 meeting: • Heard fi rst reading of a proposed ordinance amending City Charter. The amendment pertains to the mayor's veto rights. Additional time will be given council to override a veto. City Attorney Roger Jensen said it gives more power to the council. A second reading of the ordinance change is tentatively scheduled for the Aug. 9 agenda. It is the one time a mayor gets to vote.

• Approved a request for a 3-foot variance from a 5-foot setback for a driveway at 4922 Division Ave. Property owner Vicki Kennedy asked for a 5-foot variance but objections from a neighbor reduced that number. Kennedy currently has a gravel driveway and plans to blacktop it. The neighbor said the gravel has been creeping over time to his property.

Council worked to fi nd a compromise and felt 3 feet was sufficient with the remaining two feet turned to sod.

• Approved a request for five variances at 4304 Cottage Park Road.

Homeowners Michele and Tim Klegin plan to demolish the 1.5-story existing residence and build a new 2800-square-foot home with two-car attached garage. The lot is only 50 feet wide, like many lots in Cottage Park, or half what it should be.

Staff complimented the couple on the home's design but thought it went too far. City Planner Anne Kane noted one objection was a second-story "bonus room" above the garage, preferring it be set back

farther from the street. That room could become a third bedroom.

The footprint of the house is only 59 square feet bigger than the existing house, according to the architect, who said a goal is to get cars off the street.

Several neighbors spoke on the Klegin's behalf, telling council they were well informed in advance about the couple's plans.

Trudi and Frank Taylor said parking was a problem on the narrow road that the design helps solve and everyone had issues with variances. "The house will add to the value of our glorious neighborhood," Trudi said.

She also complimented council members: "We all live in a strange world right now. To come to this meeting as a citizen of this community and watch you figure out answers to things, let the rest of the world see you all. There is hope for us."

Councilman Dan Jones said he didn't see a hardship with the variance request and could not support it. "It's too much (house) for me. It could be smaller," he said.

Councilman Bill Walsh walked the property and thought the neighborhood was "weird" with its lot sizes and variance issues, but charming. "The neighbor support helps my decision," he said.

Council voted 4-1 to grant the variances with Jones voting no.

• Approved rental increase for the Armory.

Used mostly for community and youth athletic events, the Armory generates revenue through

private rentals. Rates were increased to $550 for private parties for residents and $750 for non-residents. Kitchen rental is additional. Hourly activities were increased from $20 to $25. The increase is necessary to support operational costs.

• Discussed downtown parking. Feedback from residents on Cook Avenue and Clark Avenue had opposite points of view when it came to striping parking spaces. Clark Avenue residents objected in a survey, saying it would harm the area's character. Cook Avenue residents said to go ahead and stripe. No decision has been made.

• Approved change to sign ordinance allowing dynamic display on commercial, industrial and public properties.

• Approved request by Katy Fick for three-year renewal of special home occupation permit at 2333 Mayfair Ave. to operate a massage therapy business out of a single family residence.

On racism

I

recently read “The Song Poet,” a memoir Minnesotan Kao Kalia Yang wrote about her father, Bee Yang, a Hmong refugee who came to Minnesota in 1987.

Yang’s chapter about her little brother Xue tore at me. Yang watched Xue as a young, sweet boy full of life. Xue attended Andover High School in the early 2000s, the same years I attended Anoka High School just across town. I would have attended Andover had I been younger when the new school opened.

Xue was the only Hmong student. One day, some boys racially harassed Xue while in shop Story class; one said, “Go back to your homeland, fatso.” Xue threw the Chaser nuts and bolts he was holding at Sara Marie Moore the boy. Xue was suspended.

Overnight, the family’s mailbox was spray-painted with swear words. When Xue went back to school, the same boys began to push him. Xue punched, and he was suspended.

Overnight, the family’s mailbox was hit with a bat. Their parents bought a new one.

Xue quit fighting back at school, but the comments continued. The family’s mailbox was knocked over by a car overnight, and thrown into a ditch. Their parents cemented it back in.

But Xue was never the same. He never graduated from high school.

“The newspaper articles about the culture of fear and the suicide epidemic that would break the silence of the Anoka-Hennepin School District hadn’t yet been written,” writes Yang.

How I wished I had known the Yang family when I was growing up in Andover. I wish I could have welcomed them to America — and to Andover. I read Xue’s story the night before the article with my byline about racism at a local high school came out in the White Bear Press July 6.

After the article was published, I received phone calls from parents of white students at the high school. They didn’t want to share their names or be quoted, but told me white students have also been racially harassed.

While racist comments amongst high -schoolers may seem trivial compared to the issues currently facing our nation, perhaps the reason some people react to racism with violence is because they were bullied as youth and did not have the chance to learn how to react with peaceful dignity.

I don’t have the answers for the issues plaguing our city, state and nation. But I do have one answer — forgiveness. I know of no other choice that brings as much healing, freedom and justice as forgiveness.

Bitterness builds up until it hurts you and others. Forgiveness frees a person from the emotional prison the offender built for them.

There were protests at the Star Tribune this week. Protestors demanded to know which side the newspaper was on — law enforcement or theirs. I can’t answer for the Star Tribune, but as a journalist the answer to whose side I am on is simple — no one’s and everyone’s.

A newspaper is a place where people often turn when they feel they have nowhere else to go. The White Bear Press has been here for 120 years. We’ve rejoiced with you, we’ve wept with you, we’ve walked through struggles with you we all wish didn’t exist. We publish criticism about ourselves from the community without defending ourselves. We’re here for you and we plan to be here for over 100 more years.

American Idea: freedom from control

D

uring a recent discussion with a friend, she shared an interesting observation about our natural behavior as it relates to what we expect from our government.

At a few months old, babies begin to crawl; they begin to explore the world around them. At around 12 months they begin to walk and continue to expand their world.

At 5 years old they constantly Legislator are moving, exploring, playing, and Lingo creating – fi rst with a bike or Roger skateboard, and Chamberlain eventually with a smartphone or a car. At A 16 they h don’t want to be seen with their parents; at 18 they can’t wait to move on to the next phase of their life.

Certainly this isn’t a revelation.

So what’s the point? This has been the human experience since the beginning and it explains our natural condition – something that burns within each of us.

Our nature is to be free; free to explore, to create, to learn; to live and work freely, without fear, to better our condition.

The unnatural condition is to be controlled. A parent’s attempt to control is met with understand-

Our nature is to be free; free to explore, to create, to learn; to live and work freely, without fear, to better our condition. able resistance. The same is true for adults.

No one wants to be controlled or owned. Too much control leads to conflict, whether as a child or adult. Some marriages suffer because one spouse may try to dominate and control the other.

In the workplace, who enjoys a micromanaging boss?

We can be controlled and owned by things or employers or government. Given our experiences, the simple and obvious question is why are we so comfortable being owned?

There are times when it is good to sacrifice for others, and of course we need limits and restrictions if we are to live in a civil society. There needs to be a balance between the two competing forces. That balance was found and is embodied by the American Idea.

The American Idea is where people are free to make their own

choices and control their own lives; where they are free to be optimists and dreamers. We live in a nation where E.L. Godkin, founder of The Nation magazine, noted, “Freed from the annoying meddling of government, men devoted themselves to bettering their condition, with wonderful results which surround us.”

Our founding fathers had a vision, and we are losing sight of that vision by making so many small changes that are ostensibly to better our society. But like shaping a piece of clay on a potter’s wheel, if you make too many small changes eventually the whole thing collapses.

From our personal experiences as people and as a nation, we know that we are happiest and thrive and flourish when we are allowed to fully exercise our natural right of freedom. On the other hand, we know that to surrender control of our lives leads to misery.

I submit the solution to many of our problems will not come in the form of another law, program or policy. It simply requires us to remember the power of that personal freedom, to resist the temptation of false promises and instead rekindle that internal fi re and let it burn as bright as possible.

Ways you can save on your summer vacation

S

ummer vacations are fun, but can come with a hefty price tag.

Rather than just expecting to go into the red, it’s a good idea to be proactive and think ahead. This summer, do your best to enjoy a relaxing getaway without taking on any additional debt. Better Business Bureau of Minnesota and North Dakota ® (BBB) offers some timely tips to help you save money on your summer vacation.

Here are some ways you can save some cash when preparing for your next getaway: Prepare a budget Planning is important. Having a budget in place will help you stay on track. Be sure to include a little breathing room in your budget

by accounting for an unexpected emergency.

Don’t rely on credit cards!

Avoid the debt trap by saving up ahead of time for your vacations, and paying as you go whenever possible. For larger purchases, such as airfare and hotel rooms, using a credit provides added Movers and card protections if problems arise, but make Shakers should it a goal to start paying Better Business off those expenses when your next Bureau statement arrives.

Be resourceful Check the State Tourism Board or local Chamber of Commerce website where you will be vacationing for suggestions and links to recreational ideas.

Timing is everything If you do plan on traveling outside of your immediate area, steer away from peak periods, such as holiday weekends. Prices are usually substantially lower, and you won’t have to deal with the crowds. Offseason vacations are another option.

Short and sweet You don’t have to go on a two-week trip in order to feel refreshed after a vacation. Take a long weekend or two, and maximize your itinerary by

planning activities well ahead of time.

Pack some meals to-go When you’re on the road, travel with a cooler and purchase snacks ahead of time. When you arrive at your destination, look for rooms with a kitchenette or hotels that offer continental breakfasts.

To help ensure a successful and enjoyable summer vacation, it’s always a good idea to first research the businesses behind the travel offers you’re considering at bbb.org.

this 2.9-acre site currently sits vacant, having previously been home to a hardware store, automotive repair facility, and gas station. This cleanup grant will address asbestos abatement and soil remediation, making the land suitable for development.

Not only does this clean up address a contaminated site, but it helps leverage private investment. Current planned development at Garceau Corner includes 145 affordable senior apartments.

It’s admirable that our local officials understand the need for affordable senior housing in our community, and pleased I could vote for this grant. The funding provided by the Met Council helps create jobs, increase tax base, spur redevelopment, and produce affordable housing right here in our community, making it more livable for all of us. Similar grants were awarded to four other cities across our region – I’m thankful that Vadnais Heights was able to secure one of these highly sought-after grants.

I think that reading articles such as this one can serve as a good reminder that many people close to us, be it family, friends, or neighbors, need some help every now and again. Many of these people are ones who are fighting a good fight, and trying as hard as they can to make

ends meet, but just can’t. I think that this can serve as a reminder to us all that we should give what we can while we can, because when we can’t, we’re going to want someone else who is willing to help lift us up.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Beautiful downtown A big thank you to all the people who have made downtown White Bear Lake as beautiful and welcoming as it's ever been.

Special appreciation to the grounds crew and gardeners who have cleaned and maintained the lovely gardens and containers all over town. How lucky we are for restaurant and store owners whose pride of ownership shows with overflowing flower pots and window boxes, as well as the welcome outside tables and benches. Lastly, kudos to the city workers who promptly clean up so well after downtown events. Our fun and vibrant downtown is a treasure. Keep up the good work!

Mary Lue Kellgren White Bear Lake

Promoting affordable housing for seniors As our society ages, more and more seniors are looking to downsize their homes. Many want to remain in the community where they have raised their families, and are close to friends and resources. Because of this, affordable housing for seniors is an important asset across our region.

Here in Vadnais Heights, I salute the efforts being made to build affordable senior housing. As your representative on Met Council, I am pleased to announce that the Council has approved a grant for more than $100,000 that will clean up Garceau Corner. As many of you know,

Get inspired.

Meet medical specialists.

Connect with others.

PUBLIC SAFETY BRIEFS Bank robber arrested Law enforcement has arrested a suspect who attempted to rob Lake Area Bank in White Bear Lake June 28.

Steven McKeon, 34, of North St. Paul was arrested after he allegedly robbed a TCF Bank in an Arden Hills Cub Foods, reads a complaint from Ramsey County. McKeon allegedly gave a note to a teller demanding money, just as he had in the attempted robbery in White Bear Lake.

The teller at TCF gave all of the cash from her drawer, about $4,298 and bait money equipped with a dye pack.

Two witnesses in a parking lot saw the suspect with a cloud of red smoke around him from the exploding dye pack and noted his license plate number. McKeon was traced and arrested July 13. His fiance, who did not know he had been involved in robbery, identified him in stills from the TCF Bank robbery and another robbery in Burnsville. McKeon then confessed to the robberies and the attempted robbery in White Bear Lake. The

complaint states McKeon gave a note to a teller at Lake Area Bank demanding money and indicated he had a gun, but left when she told him she had no cash drawer and went to get money out of the machine. McKeon admitted he told victims he had a gun, but said he did not actually have a gun during any of the robberies.

McKeon said he robbed the banks because they were behind on bills and because he has an addiction to pain killers. McKeon is being charged with second-degree aggravated robbery and second-degree attempted aggravated robbery.

Officer involved in fatal shooting has left home Jeronimo Yanez, the officer who fatally shot Philando Castile during a traffic stop in Falcon Heights July 6, temporarily left his home in Vadnais Heights a few days after the incident.

Yanez’ Minneapolis-based attorney Thomas Kelly

reports he advised Yanez he should probably leave his home, reports TIME. Kelly reports Yanez is saddened by Castile’s death. He reports Yanez reacted to the presence of a gun, not race.

Yanez remains on administrative leave from the St. Anthony Police Department.

The Minnesota Department of Public Safety Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) has been investigating the fatal shooting. The BCA will present its finding to the Ramsey County Attorney's Office, who will then decide whether the case will be decided by the office or a grand jury.

The Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office will continue to patrol the area to keep the community safe, according to Randy Gustafson, Ramsey County Sheriff's Office public communications coordinator.

MOSQUITOES: Aggressive cattail species hatches after holiday FROM PAGE 1A

“Probably a half dozen transmit agents that cause disease.

“Aedes is the same genus as the mosquito that spreads Zika virus, Aedes aegypti, but our version is not a threat,” Moon said. “It’s just so abundant it drives people crazy.”

Species that spread disease — like the West Nile-carrying Culex tarsalis — are noted online on MMCD’s interactive maps. See www.mmcd.org.

“Culex is an interesting mosquito,” added McLean. “It’s bird biting the first half of summer, then switches to mammals after the Fourth of July. It is a prairie mosquito, which explains why West Nile is more prevalent in North and South Dakota and western Minnesota.”

A species called Culex pipiens also carries West Nile. More prevalent on the East Coast, it does well in artificial structures and urban centers. As a precaution, MMCD sends crews out on bicycles three times a year to treat storm water catch basins for pipiens.

“The catch basins under the streets are excellent factories for pipiens,” McLean said, “and we

have to pay attention to that.”

There is also a cattail mosquito that is large and particularly aggressive this time of year. Larvae attach to the roots of cattails in the fall where they live through the winter under the ice. The species emerges around the Fourth of July.

“We can tell when cattail mosquitoes are out because we get phone calls,” said McLean said, adding the species makes up 10 to 15 percent of the biting mosquitoes.

Breeding sites are often treated with methoprene pellets or briquettes; sometimes in late February or early March before the ice goes out. The product contains a juvenile hormone found naturally in immature mosquitoes that keeps larvae from fully developing.

Established in 1958 by the Legislature, the MMCD is a government agency that serves the seven county metro area. The district’s budget is $18.8 million, which may sound like a lot but it’s spread over 2,900 square miles. “That’s bigger than the state of Delaware,” the MMCD spokesman pointed out.

Funding comes from property taxes. “A $250,000 home is taxed $13 for mosquito control,” McLean said. “That’s the same as a couple good-size cans of Off.”

SUBMITTED

There are more than 79,000 unique wetland settings in the seven-county metro area; designated in orange on online MMCD maps. Helicopters are the most efficient way to attack the insect in the water.

New YMCA location to act as hub for members

BY SHANNON GRANHOLM STAFF WRITER

The YMCA of the Greater Twin Cities has fi nalized the purchase of property located in the Gaviidae building at South Sixth Street and Nicollet Mall in downtown Minneapolis for a new site.

“We are thrilled to have purchased a portion of Gaviidae to build a contemporary, collaborative and convening space to serve our growing and changing community,” said Glen Gunderson, president and CEO of the YMCA of the Greater Twin Cities. “In this new optimal location, the Y will continue to deliver on our promise to serve relentlessly with our community until all can thrive at each stage of life. We look forward to working together with our partners to offer programming and services to address the opportunity gap,

ANNUAL GIVING CAMPAIGN The White Bear Area YMCA 2016 Annual Giving campaign raised $208,800 that will directly impact the community.

Chair of this year’s campaign was Gene Altstatt of Mahtomedi who reported 461 families donated to the annual appeal.

community health, homelessness, job readiness, newcomer support and much more.”

The new site is scheduled to be up and running in early 2018 and is in the “heart” of the city.

“The goal of the new location is to better serve the community. The one beautiful thing about this is its central location will offer wonderful opportunities for whether you are a corporation that wants to do a team building event with volunteering or whether you are just someone who wants to get involved and help serve the community,” said Joan Schimml, senior director of communications and marketing of the YMCA of the Greater Twin Cities.

“There will be plenty of opportunities from a social-responsibility and volunteering aspect that makes it quite unique.”

Although the new location is not in the White Bear Press coverage area, members are able to visit any of the Y’s locations. For example, if a YMCA member lives in White Bear Lake but works in Minneapolis, they can visit the new location before or after work. “It is important to know that this is a place for the community and to better serve the community. Everyone is welcome to come to this Y,” Schimml said.

The new location will be the home to the association headquarters and feature a social responsibility hub. “This is where we are really trying to do programming and services to address opportunity gaps, newcomer support, job readiness, homelessness ...” Schimml explained.

White Bear Area YMCA Executive Director Shane Hoefer told the White Bear Lake City Council July 12 the Y wouldn't be here without its partnership with the city. Established in 1906 at 2222 Fourth St. (now the Kellerman Event Center), the Y opened its current facility July 31, 1971 and remodeled in 2009 with fi nancial assistance from surrounding communities.

One highlight is the enclosed aquatic center, which helps ensure students receive water safety lessons. According to Hoefer, drowning is a leading cause of death in children under 14.

Mayor Jo Emerson proclaimed July 31 as YMCA Day in White Bear Lake. She noted that the Y is celebrating its 160th anniversary regionally and on July 31, its 45th anniversary at 2100 Orchard Lane.

The YMCA of the Greater Twin Cities is a nonprofit dedicated to strengthening communities through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. Its mission is, “Everyone deserves a chance to succeed — no matter their background or income — and that can happen only when we unite to nurture the best in all of us.”

Camp Invention fosters youth innovation

BY NOOR QUREISHY PRESS INTERN

VADNAIS HEIGHTS — Shouts of “sludgy, slimy,” “so boing-y,” “boing-y slime,” and “yay slimeballs,” rang through the classroom as a horde of elementary and middle school-age youth rushed in, eager to begin their lab of the day.

Their enthusiasm wasn’t limited to the slime, however. They greeted opportunities to make robotic crickets and take apart appliances from home with the same undying interest.

Camp Invention, a nationally recognized summer enrichment program focused on STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) concepts for first to sixth graders came to Vadnais Heights Elementary for the first time, captivating campers and volunteers alike.

Camp Invention participants love the opportunities for creativity the camp offers. “[Camp Invention] allows you to let loose your creativity or creative mind,” said fifth-grade camper Ava Dempster.

“I didn’t know very much about a lot of math and science because they aren’t some of my favorite subjects, but now I know more so it’ll help me...when I first went to this camp I didn’t know how to properly use a hammer, but now I do.”

Sixth-grader Logan Capra is also fond of the way Camp Invention encourages creativity and logical thinking.

“Our school doesn’t normally have time to teach us like this,” Capra said. “[Camp Invention] opens up the creative process.” He cites activities like building a CrickoBot, a robotic cricket, as one of

the ways Camp Invention pushes kids to problem solve. Campers are given challenges, like transporting the robot across a puddle, and figure out the solution individually or as a team.

Camp Invention came to Vadnais Heights from its former location, Otter Lake Elementary, because of ongoing construction at the site. Hence, the vast majority of campers were from nearby cities. A quarter of the kids attending the camp were from Vadnais Heights.

Through a partnership with Community Education and the school district, Camp Invention was able to move to Vadnais Heights when it became clear that Otter Lake would be unable to host this year.

It is unclear whether Camp Invention will be returning to Vadnais Heights next year, although it is possible that the camp will return, depending on next year’s director and district contact, says current local Camp Invention Director Alanna Kucera.

The camp features four modules, or lessons during the day. Campers participate in the CrickoBot, Epic Park, I Can Invent: Maker Studio, and The Lab: Where Pigs Fly and Anything is Possible modules.

They also have Camp Invention Games and Base Camp during the day. Beyond the camp experience, Camp Invention offers opportunities to students as volunteers and interns. Middle school age students can become counselors-in-training that volunteer at camp, while high school and college age students can apply to be leadership interns there.

Counselors-in-training and leadership interns gain valuable skills over the course of Camp Invention. “You gain so much from it but you don’t even really

Meyer says she improved her teamwork, leadership, and teaching skills at Camp Invention.

For participants, the allure of Camp Invention lies in the skills the campers are taught, which promise to help them in and out of the classroom. “[Campers get unique experience] working with others because at school you do that but not quite as much as you do here. They also are taught some learning skills like…figuring out how they can learn and whatever’s easier for them. Some people learn by just talking, and some people learn by doing and we do both here,” said Meyer.

Besides determining which learning style works best for them, campers also work on teamwork and problem solving skills. “[Camp Invention is] so hands on

and it’s all about problem solving, and working together and just creating and I know we try to incorporate STEM into my curriculum but we don’t always have the time. [This camp] just connects to so much learning,” said Kindergarten teacher and instructor at Camp Invention Sara Kahoun.

Due to the growing market for jobs in technology and other STEM fields, local Director of Camp Invention Alanna Kucera believes that the STEM-focused lessons students receive will give them an edge for future careers.

“With so many new jobs in technology, [activities at Camp Invention] help kids see what they can do with the things they’re interested in,” Kucera said. The creative problem solving and other brainstorming strategies learned at the camp are versatile, she explains; they would help the participants of Camp Invention in any field they choose.

LAKE LAWSUIT: Talk of augmentation shouldn’t impact trial FROM PAGE 1A

motions and exhibits intended to be offered at trial.

Those motions are already circulating, Jensen added.

“We also talked about whether the augmentation bill that was funded will influence the case,” said the city attorney. “Plaintiffs said they didn’t think it would affect the trial.”

Attorneys for the restoration association, Dick

Allyn with Robins Kaplan LLP, and co-counsel Ciresi & Conlin LLP, did not attend last week’s meeting.

Representing the plaintiff was Byron Starns, attorney for the White Bear Lake Homeowners Association, which is an intervenor in the lawsuit.

Funding by the Legislature is a key element in the settlement, noted Allyn in a follow up email.

“The goal is for the six nearby cities to use surface and not groundwater, thus reducing pressure on the

WAITING ON USGS: STATUS REPORT As attorneys on both sides of the White Bear Lake lawsuit prepare for a pending trial, they await release of a key scientific report.

Titled “Characterizing Groundwater and Surface Water Interactions in Selected Northeastern Twin Cities Lakes, 2013-2016,” the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) report addresses such areas as the regional effects of groundwater withdrawals on lake levels and reasons why fluctuations vary between lakes.

The much anticipated report is a follow-up to an earlier study that found a combination of decreased precipitation and increased groundwater withdrawals could explain lake level decline.

Expected to be released this fall, the report will now come in two installments at least a month apart.

USGS hydrologist and groundwater specialist Melinda Erickson is working with lead scientist Perry Jones on the study. She indicated a decision was made with the Metropolitan Council to publish two separate reports.

“One will be a description of the methods and results from field activities and statistical analysis,” Erickson said.

“That is well on its way, and available for release early this fall — probably October.”

The second report on a flow model that simulates groundwater/surface water interaction is still in process and expected to be completed late fall, Erickson noted, adding “the nature of the results are so different for the methods versus model, it made sense to do them separately.”

Both are important. “The field methods report gives us insight as to physical reasons for the things we see,” she said. “The model is a tool that will be useful to answer questions about specific well pumping and water levels in area lakes. That report has not yet entered the peer review stage.”

Erickson said the USGS is well aware of the report’s significance in the White Bear Lake lawsuit.

“The study is one of the highest profile projects we’ve had in terms of the breadth of the level of interest. It has truly been a team effort involving not just the USGS, but the DNR, the Metropolitan Council, watersheds and municipalities. It will be a fine piece of work when it’s done.”

aquifer that supports White Bear Lake,” Allyn said.

“The 2016 Legislative failure triggers a lift of the stay of litigation effective Aug. 1.”

The effect of lifting the stay will certainly be discussed at next month’s status meeting with the judge, Allyn added. He also questioned whether the DNR will keep its promise to set a “protected elevation” of White Bear Lake.

Unless something happens at the August status conference, the lift of the stay means litigation can start back up in preparation for the March 6, 2017 jury trial, said the plaintiff counsel.

That something could be the USGS report, “Characterizing Groundwater and Surface Water Interactions in Selected Northeastern Twin Cities Lakes, 20132016,” due this fall and considered a significant item of evidence in the case.

“There was discussion (at the DNR meeting) about how important the USGS (U.S. Geological Survey) report will be,” noted White Bear Township Clerk Bill Short. “Everyone will need time to receive and digest the report prior to the trial. Folks at the DNR and the Metropolitan Council also need time to apply the models that are part of the report.” (See sidebar) Added Short: “From what I hear from the attorneys, the judge understands the significance of the science and she has made it clear the report will be part of the decision process. Right now that could be kind of a squeeze.”

Both the city of White Bear Lake and White Bear Township are intervenors in the case on the side of the defense.

Care center gets own monarch garden

BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

Milkweed and monarchs are meant for each other.

Minnesota's state butterfly got a much needed nudge last week by volunteers passionate about the monarch's survival.

Beneficiaries will also be Cerenity Care Center White Bear Lake residents who a year from now will witness the monarch's metamorphosis from its tiny speck of an egg to larvae to chrysalis to butterfly.

Volunteers Helen Gehrenbeck and Bob Djupstrom, a retired ecologist, provided some facts on monarchs to residents July 13. They included a show and tell using milkweed leaves populated by larvae from Djupstrom's backyard, then followed their talk by planting seedlings in Cerenity's courtyard.

"Monarchs, native to North America, are at a critical phase in their survival," Djupstrom told the group. "Populations have dropped from 900 million at one time to 57 million in 2014."

Pesticides and habitat loss are largely responsible for the dramatic decline.

Monarchs feed only on milkweed, which is rapidly disappearing from farm fields and ditches. Six states, from Minnesota to Texas, are forming a monarch corridor

along I-35 dedicated to the planting of milkweed, according to the pair, to help the monarch in its annual migration to and from Mexico.

Djupstrom, who Gehrenbeck said "knows more about monarchs than anyone you'll ever meet," explained that monarchs use the orientation of the sun and the earth's magnetic field to find their way to a mountainous fir forest in central Mexico. The butterflies spend the winter roosting in tree branches at an elevation of 8,000 to 12,000 feet in temperatures that range from 33 to 59 degrees. Deforestation of the fir trees also threaten the monarch's survival. Weather is also a factor.

A March snow storm hit their wintering site when the spring migration had just started.

Last year, Gehrenbeck raised 49 monarchs and Djupstrom 75 from his patch of milkweed. He has 247 plants in his yard. This year, he spotted the first egg June 2 and by June 30, it was a butterfly.

Djupstrom encourages residents to plant gardens of common milkweed, which are very fragrant, to attract more monarchs. Plants are available at the St. Paul farmer's market and Prairie Restoration in Scandia.

Next year at this time, Djupstrom said, Cerenity will have its own butterflies.

Goodwill gets go-ahead to build on Centerville Road

SUBMITTED

This rendering was approved by the White Bear Lake City Council.

BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE — The proposal to build a new Goodwill store in town got the two ordinance changes necessary to proceed.

One was a rezoning that allows a secondhand and used goods store. A second hurdle was a conditional use permit to allow a collection site with drive-thru lanes and drop-off bays.

The Driessen Group, LLC, is developing the vacant property at 4500 Centerville Road for a 20,600-square-foot Goodwill with donation center.

Also approved by City Council July 12 was a permit to fill 47 percent of the wet-

lands on the 4.3-acre site.

City Development Director Anne Kane said the site was environmentally sensitive and a challenge to develop. She commended the engineer for the plat design, noting the property had a lot of constraints, especially with storm water drainage and treatment of runoff.

In total, four land use requests were granted.

Issues with parking were solved at the 11th hour when staff reached a compromise with developers on number of stalls.

Kane noted that some skills training will be conducted at the store that does not conflict with the busiest times for customer parking. Based on the anticipated sales volume and number of employees, as

represented by Goodwill, staff agreed to a compromise parking count of 89 stalls at first with a proof of parking for 14. The extra 14 can be constructed only with city approval. The developers had asked for 103 stalls due to expected volume.

At a Planning Commission meeting in May, Lynn Dahl, Goodwill real estate director, said the White Bear Lake store is anticipated to have more volume than Maplewood with sales near $1.5 million the first year. “We will also have a mission services department for on-site training.

That adds two to four case managers and 10 to 15 participants, so we need more parking.”

Councilman Dan Jones welcomed Goodwill representatives, saying "this

is a great use of the property and a good negotiation."

The wetland mitigation off site did bother him though, Jones added. "That water is gone. It's not returning here. We need to work with our watersheds to make sure mitigation happens in our city."

Dahl said they hope for a March 2017 opening. She also reminded the commissioners that Goodwill pays property taxes.

After the approval, Mayor Jo Emerson welcomed the developers to White Bear Lake. "Glad to have you," she said.

An entity of Minneapolis-based Driessen Group paid $1.78 million for a 1.29-acre site on University Avenue in St. Paul in 2014. A call to Vince Driessen for comment was not returned.

JULY 20, 2016

DISTRICT 624 SCHOOL BOARD NOTES The District 624 School Board took the following action at its July 11 meeting:

million in 2018, $6.7 million in 2019, $5.9 million in 2020, $1.8 million in 2021 and $2 million per year each following year until 2026. The plan assumes the issuance of $15 million in Long-Term Facilities Maintenance (LTFM) revenue program bonds and a phase-in of pay-as-you-go funding.

White Bear Lake is one of 25 schools who qualified for LTFM funding, brought in by the 2015 legislature.

• Approved 2016-2017 membership in the Minnesota State High School League.

• Approved Sara Paul, assistant superintendent for teaching and learning, Wayne Kazmierczak, assistant superintendent for finance and operations, and Michael Lovett, superintendent, as identified officials with authority, who are authorized access by local education agency users to Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) secure websites, as required by MDE. • Approved its 2016-2017 regular school board meetings to be the second Monday of the month, and its work-study sessions to be on the fourth Monday of the month. Exceptions include December, June, and

• Approved an agreement with First Student, Inc. for student transportation services for two years, with an option to extend for an additional two years. Currently, daily District bus/ van routes number 92 with approximately 500 separate runs each day.

Of the 92 routes, the District operates 29; for 2016-2017 this will increase to a minimum of 37. For regular buses, First Student will cover 25 routes in 2016-2017 compared to 33 contracted routes in the 2015-2016 school year.

This difference of eight routes will be covered with District vehicles and employees. The rate for regular routes will be $318 per day, up from $301. The rate for special education routes will be $315 per day. First Student does not currently cover any of the District’s special education routes. Year two of the agreement calls for a 2.75 percent rate increase.

• Approved a 10-year, long-term facilities maintenance plan. White Bear Lake Area Schools plans $5.7 million in facility maintenance in 2017, $6.3

July when there is no work-study session, and March when the regular board meeting will be held on the first Monday of the month due to spring break.

• Approved the proposed 2016-2017, 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 master agreement with the School Nutrition Association representing the food and nutrition employees of White Bear Lake Area Schools.

• Approved an agreement with Ramsey County election officials to administrate the school district's elections for 2017-2020. The district already had an agreement for 2013-2016.

• Approved the bid by Seating and Athletic Facility Enterprises (SAAFE) for a press box at South Campus in the amount of $214,574.

The board had previously voted not to approve the bid at a May 9 meeting. The board expressed concerns that only one bid had been received.

An additional bid was since given from National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA) in the amount of $219,300.

• School board members also visited the press box since the May 9 meeting. Board Chair Janet Newberg

expressed concern at the rotting box.

Board member Marge Newmaster expressed concerns of the safety of the current box. Board member George Kimball said he now feels confident the money is being stewarded well.

The funds will come out of the longterm facilities maintenance plan fund. Board member Kim Chapman thought the cost was still too much to pay from taxpayer dollars and does not think there is a direct student benefit. The board passed the motion 5-2. Chapman and Don Mullin voted no.

• Approved changes to school board policies. The word “gender” was added to a list of categories that the district does not unlawfully discriminate against in the Equal Educational Opportunity policy and was also added to the Harassment and Violence policy. The Mandated Reporting of Child Neglect or Physical or Sexual Abuse policy had definitions of abuse, nonmaltreatment mistake and reporting updated.

LOOKING BACK Week of July 17 – July 20, 2016 Culled from the archives of the White Bear Press at the resource library of the White Bear Lake Area Historical Society 1916 Again the sudden, silent messenger has appeared in our midst and summoned another member of the community when William Schwinn, aged 19 years, 4 months and 27 days drowned in White Bear Lake, near the ice houses, between the village limits and White Bear. It seems the young man went in bathing with several others. He was not an expert swimmer and he waded out in the distance and stepped off a ledge…

White Bear town team struggling but players vastly prefer hardball to softball

BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR

It has been a while since the heyday of town baseball in White Bear Lake.

A White Bear team won the state championship in 1925, but none has even reached a state tournament in the 92 years since, according to the team’s website.

The current edition, which plays as White Bear Township (no nickname), decked in Pittsburgh Pirate-style sleeveless jerseys, is not likely to end that drought, having won just two games this summer, but these guys thrive on lacing up the spikes anyway.

“Most of us just love baseball and want to keep playing,” said Jason Bujold, the team’s catcher

and manager. “Winning is a bonus. We're too competitive for slow pitch softball. We have fun.”

The team’s won-lost record is “two and a lot.

I’ve lost track. Let’s say 19,” said Bujold. They have five games left, plus playoffs.

WBT plays in Class A, biggest of the three divisions in the Minnesota Baseball Association.

Home games are played at Polar Lakes Park.

The pitching has been pretty good but the hitting not so much — such as Andy Pass shutting down St. Anthony in a 2-0 loss at home last Wednesday.

The squad has six players currently on college teams: Chance Carnahan, Alex Dash and Dan Klonowski (all Macalester), Ryan Zimmel (Califor-

nia-Santa Clara), Marcus Schlepper (St. John’s) an Andy Kramlinger (St. Mary’s).

The older guys are former college players including St. Mary’s alums Bujold, John Swenson, Andy Pass and Matt Biagini. Others are Bill Sand, Blake Milner, and Kody Gregerson (all Hamline), Pat Koehler (Augsburg), Pat Shrewsbury (St. Olaf) and Jonathan Castro (Iowa State).

Kramilinger and Koehler are WBL grads and the rest of the roster hails from Mounds View, Cretin-Derham Hall, St. Thomas, Woodbury and out-of-state.

Schleper has been a good leadoff batter, and Carnahan, Zimmel and Dash have done well at times at the plate,

the manager said. The capable pitching staff was headed for a while by Biagina, who was “lights out” before he broke his jaw in a non-baseball mishap.

WBT’s last strong year was about a half-dozen years ago when they won the Skyline League.

“Unfortunately, a lot of those guys had to move on after one season,” said Bujold about his former teammates. He said the team was “middle of the pack” from then until the last two years.

Bujold, who works for Department of Veterans Affairs, has played with Township since 2005, and Swenson since 2007.

Pass started about the same time but missed two years after Tommy John (shoulder) surgery, as did

Sand, who missed some seasons while attending law school.

“I’m really proud of the way guys have stayed with it and not put their

heads down,” Bujold said.

“When things go well in baseball, it's easy to show up. When things aren't going well, that's when the true test is.”

COON RAPIDS — Matthew Garside of Vadnais Heights won the 2016 Minnesota Junior PGA Championship presented

by Under Armour and Genesis Networks on July 13 at The Jewel Golf Club in Lake City.

By winning the boys division, Garside qualified for the 41st Junior PGA Championship Aug. 9-12 at Wannamoisett Country Club in Rumford, Rhode Island.

Garside, 15, posted a final-round 3-over 74 for a two-day total of 1-over 143, but that was not enough. He finished the day in a three-way tie for first with Connor Glynn of Waconia and William Lonnquist of Edina, after 36 holes. On the first playoff hole, Garside nailed his 5-foot par putt while the two others missed their short par putts; making Garside the champion.

“I started off the round with a 3-putt, which was kind of a sour start,” Garside said. “But I finished really well; I had birdies on the 16th and 17th.”

Garside saw his title hopes dwindle after an errand tee shot on the par-4, 14th caused him to re-tee and ultimately led to a double-bogey. “After that [double-bogey on the 14th], I just tried to keep myself calm,” Garside emphasized.

Safe to say he was able to keep his composure by making two, lengthy birdie putts on the 16th and 17th to finish

2-under on his last three holes to force a playoff he would win with a clutch par.

“This was completely unexpected, I haven’t really though it through,” Garside said referring to qualifying for the national tournament. “I’m just excited to compete on the national stage,” he added.

The 41st Junior PGA Championship presented by Under Armour and Genesis Networks, is open to one boy and one girl champion from each of the 41 PGA Sections, champions of the eight PGA Junior Series events, select national junior tournaments conducted throughout the year and special invitees who have not reached their 19th birthdays as of the final round of the championship.

The Junior PGA Championship has traditionally been a stepping-stone for many of today’s PGA and LPGA Tour professionals, as well as current collegiate stars. Past Junior PGA Championship competitors who have gone on to successful professional careers on tour include: Inbee Park, Luke Guthrie, Trevor Immelman, Cristie Kerr, Justin Leonard, Hunter Mahan, Phil Mickelson, Grace Park, Dottie Pepper, Jordan Spieth, Lexi Thompson, David Toms, Michelle Wie and Tiger Woods.

Gene Annis

USGA golf rules: Enough is enough I wrote a column in 2011 about the USGA rule book.

That year Dustin Johnson was assessed a two stroke penalty at the U.S. Open while playing at Whistling Straits for grounding his club in the sand. I stated that I thought the call by Tee Time the USGA was ridiculous.

Everyone I knew conwith Coach curred.

For the record, the USGA Betsy Larey had allowed that bunker (it had no definition as a bunker, it was just sand, dirt and some grass) to be part of the traffic pattern for the gallery. It did not look like a bunker, and the rules official with that group did not bother to tell him he was in a bunker.

No call = bad call in my book.

Yet here we are again in 2016 with the U.S. Open, and once again the USGA ”considered” assessing a penalty for Rule 18-2b. Ball at Rest Moves. Dustin Johnson (yet again) addressed the ball on the green and it moved. The shocker about this one is there was a rules official on the hole that deemed no penalty. Lesson learned from

2011. Yet five holes later the head honchos went up to Johnson and said “we are considering assessing you a penalty” and will discuss it after the round.

They are incredibly lucky he won big, can you imagine the uproar had he won by one stroke? As I see it, the irony of that situation is they overruled their own rules official.

For those of you who don’t play competitive golf, here’s the deal on Ball at Rest Moves after player addresses the ball. I know this one first hand because I lost a match play tournament because of it. Prior to 2012, if a player addressed the ball on the green and it moved, you were assessed a one stroke penalty. The new revised rule in 2012 said if wind caused the ball to move you were to replace it with no penalty. But no mention of gravity.

The day I played the green in question was severely sloped, and the stimpmeter was running 12-13 (very fast). I addressed my putt and the ball moved. It moved because the green was almost brown and had just been rolled that morning. It was gravity, not wind that caused it. Too bad so sad, one stroke penalty and I lost the hole.

Fast forward to 2016 and yet another revision. If it moves for any reason other than the player causing it to move there is no penalty. Three revisions in four years.

The USGA rule book is 192 pages. In 2011, it was 182. It is very difficult to understand for the average golfer. In the first version found from 1744 (located in the National Library in Scotland) there was one page with 13 basic rules. My favorite was number 10. “If a ball be stopp’d by any person, Horse, Dog or anything else, The Ball so stop’d must be played where it lyes.” If you would like to read these 13 perfect rules, google Rules of golf – Wikipedia.

Three weeks after the Men’s Open the women played their version at CordeValle.

Brittany Lang and Anna Nordqvist were in a 3 hole playoff at they tied at 72 holes.

Both players were tied after the second playoff hole – or so they thought. The FOX broadcast team (they are horrible, another bad USGA decision for giving them a 10 year contract) showed the replay of Nordqvist in a fairway bunker on 17 touching “a” grain of sand with her club before taking her club back.

I will guarantee you that happens a lot in golf, and the only reason she was as-

sessed the penalty was the FOX announcers decided to get a USGA rules official in the booth to see the hi-def replay. Thank you FOX, please stick to baseball.

The travesty here was AGAIN how the USGA fumbled notifying the players. The rules official stepped in and told them out of sequence. Nordqvist hit her third shot into the green. Then he walked over and told Lang before she hit her third shot. She puts her club away, pulls out an iron and plays the safe shot to the right of the green.

I love golf, I love playing by the rules.

But the USGA needs to give it up to the R and A. For the record, the R and A (formerly the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews) oversees golf in every country in the world except the US and Mexico.

And may we please have our original 13 rules from 1744 to play by?

Rush transit through White Bear Lake moving along

BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE — Light-rail could be a new feature downtown – or maybe railcars or rapid transit buses.

Representatives will be on hand to discuss the options being considered at Marketfest in downtown White Bear Lake July 28. Public meetings to discuss which option is best will also be held Aug. 11 in White Bear Lake.

The northeast metro is being considered for new transit as part of the Rush Line Corridor, which stretches 80 miles between St. Paul and Hinckley. Four alternatives of routes and transit types have been presented for the route from St. Paul to Forest Lake.

The options, both routes and transit types, are expected to be narrowed by November, said Andy Gitzlaff of the Ramsey County Regional Railroad Authority. A locally preferred alternative should be chosen in the spring of 2017.

“There might be a better sense of what is working well and what is not by that November timeframe,” said Gitzlaff. More neighborhood meetings will be held when the alternatives are narrowed in November.

All the current options include rapid bus transit from downtown White Bear Lake to downtown Forest Lake.

Rapid bus transit, light-rail or railcars are proposed from

St. Paul to White Bear Lake.

Three routes through the White Bear Lake area are being considered.

One of the routes, proposed to be with either light-rail, bus rapid transit or railcars, would use the Bruce Vento Regional Trail, which stretches from St. Paul through Maplewood to Vadnais Heights, with an option to jump over to Maplewood Mall and back.

From Vadnais Heights the route would continue along a rail corridor or jump over to Highway 61. Both routes would pass Marina Triangle and head into downtown White Bear Lake.

The Bruce Vento Regional Trail is a former Burlington Northern rail corridor that was purchased by the Ramsey County Regional Railroad Authority (RCRRA). The RCRRA permitted the installation of the Bruce Vento Regional Trail as an interim use, preserving the corridor for future transit use. If transit were used in the corridor, the trail would either run alongside it or be relocated close by.

Gitzlaff said decision makers have been researching other parts of the country where transit and trail co-exist. Most of the corridor of the trail area is 100 feet wide, and there would be room for both without acquiring nearby property, Gitzlaff said.

“At this point, we are focusing in on the property we own and fitting it in there,” Gitzlaff said.

Light-rail, railcars or rapid bus transit is being proposed along the Bruce Vento Regional Trail in Vadnais Heights as one of the options for a Rush Line between St. Paul and Forest Lake.

Another route, proposed to be with either light-rail or bus rapid transit, would follow White Bear Avenue from St. Paul through Maplewood, and cut over to the Bruce Vento Regional Trail along Beam Avenue by Maplewood Mall.

The light-rail or bus would follow the same route options described in White Bear Lake.

Bus rapid transit can operate in a dedicated corridor or lane, separate from other vehicles or within mixed traffic.

Another route, proposed to be with arterial bus rapid transit, would follow White Bear Avenue from St. Paul through Maplewood and either continue on White Bear Avenue to Marina Triangle or cut over to Highway 61 via Beam Avenue by Maplewood Mall. It would continue from Marina Triangle to downtown White Bear Lake. Arterial bus rapid transit systems have vehicles with low floors that allow boarding from both doors. Fares would be paid before boarding, trips would be frequent and there would be fewer stops per mile.

The decision-makers The decision on the alternative to be selected is being made by a variety of groups: the policy advisory committee, the rush line corridor task force and county regional railroad authorities.

The task force is a 23-member board made up of city, county and township elected officials.

Task force members from Press Publications' coverage area include Ramsey County Commissioner Victoria Reinhardt, Washington County Commissioner Fran Miron, Anoka County Commissioner Rhonda Sivarajah, White Bear Lake Mayor Jo Emerson, White Bear Township Board Supervisor Bob Kermes, Hugo Mayor Tom Weidt, Centerville Mayor Tom Wilharber, and Forest Lake Councilman Ben Winnick.

The policy advisory committee has assisted the task force in the pre-project development study, providing input on the project. It includes additional elected officials and agency representatives, including representatives from the Metropolitan Council and the Minnesota Department of Transportation.

area include the task force members in addition to Gem Lake Mayor Robert Uzpen, Vadnais Heights Mayor Marc Johannsen, Lino Lakes Mayor Jeff Reinert, White Bear Area Chamber member Sheila Kelly and Forest Lake Chamber President Colleen Eddy.

The policy advisory committee and task force board will recommend a route and transit type as a preferred alternative to county regional railroad authorities. If railroad authorities recommend the preferred alternative as well, they will recommend it to the Metropolitan Council for adoption. The preferred route will then be studied in-depth for potential impacts, including environmental impacts.

The foregoing is an Official Summary of the Ordinance Number 51A approved by the Council of the City of Dellwood on July 12, 2016.

The City of Dellwood does not provide a public sewer system. This Ordinance requires a Permit from the City before any work is commenced to construct or repair any private wastewater disposal system. A final inspection and approval by the Dellwood Sewer Inspector is required before the system is put in to use.

Permit Fees and Inspection Fees are set by Resolution of the Council.

The Ordinance adopts by reference Minnesota Rules Chapter 7080 through 7083.

The Ordinance establishes minimum capacity for septic tanks and requires that each developable lot have at least 10,000 square feet of designated suitable land area for an individual sewage treatment system. Soil borings and percolation tests are required.

Each system must have at least three (3) feet of vertical separation between the bottom of the treatment system and saturated soil or bedrock.

Modified Type III ALternate Systems may be allowed under certain conditions set forth in the Ordinance.

Each system in the City is inspected annually by the Dellwood Sewer inspector to determine if the system is functioning properly, failing, or in need or replacement or repair.

No person may engage in the business of inspecting, altering, installing, repairing, pumping or cleaning of any system without having a current license and a Permit from the City.

Violations of this Ordinance constitute misdemeanors for which penalties may be imposed according to law.

If the system constitutes a nuisance or a health hazard, the CIty may take steps to abate the nuisance and to discontue use of the system until it has been replaced or repaired to the satisfaction of the City Sewer Inspector.

A complete copy of the Ordinance is on file and available for inspection by any person at the Office of the Dellwood City Clerk, 111 WIldwood Road, WIllernie, Minnesota 55090.

Increases property tax imposed on other properties as a result of fiscal disparities contribution*:

*The fiscal disparity property tax law provides that the growth in commercial-industry property tax values is shared throughout the area. In a tax increment financing district, this value sharing can either result in a tax increase for other properties in the municipality or result in a decrease in tax increment financing district revenue depending on how the tax increment financing district is established.

Tax Increment Financing Districts 1-1, 1-2, 1-13 and 1-14 in White Bear Township does not share its growth in commercial-industrial property tax values. This results in an increase in property taxes for other properties located in White Bear Township. For taxes payable in 2015, this increase in taxes on other properties amounted to $43,484.

Additional information regarding each district may be obtained from: Tom Kelly, 1281 Hammond Road, White Bear Township, MN 55110 or at (651)-747-2760.

The City’s municipal systems consisting of lift stations, manholes, collection piping, service piping, force main, and associated appurtenances located within the public right-of-way and applicable easements shall be operated as a public utility and convenience from which revenue shall be derived, subject to the provisions of this chapter. This chapter shall be referred to as the City’s Utility Regulations.

Compliance with Regulations. No person, firm or corporation shall connect any water or sanitary sewer service to the municipal systems or make use of the systems except in the manner provided in this chapter. All connections to or extensions of the systems shall be in accordance with relevant portions of the Minnesota Building Code, Minnesota Plumbing Code, and City of Gem Lake Standard Details for utility construction.

Sanitary Sewer and Water Fund. There is also created and the City shall maintain on the official books and records of the City a separate and special fund to be designated as the Sanitary Sewer Fund, and a special fund to be designated as the Water Fund which shall be held and administered by the City separate and apart from all other funds until the purposes for its creation have been accomplished.

Connections with Sewer Required.

(A) Existing Structures. Any buildings presently used or capable of being used for human habitation or in which a toilet or other plumbing facilities for disposal of human waste is installed and located on property adjacent to a sewer main, or in the platted block through which the system extends, shall be connected to the Municipal Sanitary Sewer System within one year from the date on which a connection is available to such building. Where the property owner has failed to connect to the sanitary sewer system within ten years or within six months if the septic system fails, the following procedures shall be followed: (1) The property owner shall be notified that it is the intent of the City to connect the property to the sanitary sewer system and assess the cost of connection against the property owner. The notice shall be mailed by registered mail to the property address.

(2) The cost of the improvement shall include all costs incurred by the City in order to connect the property to the main sewer line and shall include City permit and connection charges which must be submitted to the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services.

(B) New Structures. All buildings hereafter constructed within the City on property adjacent to a sewer main or in a platted block through which the Municipal Sanitary Sewer System extends, shall be provided with a connection to the sewer system for disposal of all human waste before occupancy of the building shall be allowed or a certificate of occupancy issued.

(C) Sewer Not Available. Where sewer is not available to a building, the building shall be connected to and deliver waste to an individual sewage treatment system.

Municipal Sanitary Sewer System Charges. A portion of the cost of constructing and maintaining the municipal sanitary sewer system shall be recovered by the imposition of special assessments pursuant to Minnesota Statute 429, a connection charge, and a sewer availability charge (SAC) on behalf of the Metropolitan Council.

(A) Connection Charge. A connection charge, as determined from time to time by City Council ordinance, shall be collected when housing units are connected to the Municipal Sanitary Sewer System. In addition, before a connection permit will be issued, the City shall determine that one of the following conditions exist: (1) The lot or tract of land to be served by such connection has been assessed for the cost of construction of the sanitary sewer main with which the connection is made; or (2) If no special assessment has been levied for such construction cost, the proceedings for levying the special assessments have been or will be commenced and completed in due course; or (3) If no special assessment has been levied, and no special assessment proceedings will be completed in due course, a sum equal to the portion of the cost of construction of the sanitary sewer main which would be assessable against said lot or tract has been paid to the City; or (4) If none of the above conditions are met, no permit to connect to any sanitary sewer main shall be issued unless the applicant shall pay an additional connection fee which shall be equal to the portion of the cost of construction of the said sanitary sewer main which would be specially assessed against said lot or tract served by such connection. Said assessable cost is to be determined by the Engineer upon the same basis as any special assessment previously levied against other property for said main. If no special assessment has been levied, the assessable cost will be determined upon the basis of the uniform charge which may have been or which shall be charged for similar connection with said sanitary sewer main.

(B) The Metropolitan Council has established sewer service availability and connection charges (SAC) for all buildings constructed or connected to the Metropolitan Disposal System.

Connection Permits. A permit must be obtained to connect to the municipal systems. The connection permit fee, as established by Gem Lake City Council ordinance, shall be submitted at the time of permit application. All permits for service installations shall be made by the owner of the property, or his duly authorized agent and shall state the size and location of the service connection and all other information as required. The applicant shall pay to the City prior to the issuance of the permit, the total amount of fees or deposit required for the installation of the service connection as herein provided. No permit shall be issued except to a licensed plumber, certified pipe layer, or homeowner performing work on his or her own premises. City inspections are required for all connections to, and extensions of, the municipal systems.

Statements for Water and Sanitary Sewer Use Charges.

(A) Water and Sanitary sewer use charges, as determined from time to time by City Council ordinance shall be payable quarterly. Such statements shall be due and payable on or before the first day of the second month following receipt of the billing. Where service is for less than a quarterly period, the quarterly charge shall be pro-rated on a monthly basis. . If a water meter is found to have been operating in a faulty manner, the amount of water used will be estimated in accordance with the amount used previously in comparable periods of the year.

(B) Penalties for Delinquent Payments. A penalty equal to 10% of the amount due shall be added to accounts not paid in full on or before the first day of the second month following the billing period and to each quarterly billing thereafter until the amount of the delinquent account plus accrued penalty is paid in full or otherwise certified to the County Auditor as a delinquent account.

(C) Annual Certification of Delinquent Accounts. Each year the City shall prepare a list of delinquent service charge accounts, including accrued penalties thereon, in the form of an assessment roll. The City Council shall annually review the delinquent service charge assessment roll and adopt an appropriate resolution directing that the assessment roll be certified to the County Auditor as a lien against the premises served and directing that the County Auditor collect the assessment as part of the ensuing year’s tax levy.

Service Charges relating to Municipal Water Utility. When actions or activities of water customers require coordination with or a call out of City utility personnel (e.g. turning water supply on/off at curbs tops), a water service charge shall be assessed to the utility account. When the call out occurs outside of normal business hours, it will be deemed an emergency call out. The service charges for regular and emergency call outs will be established by Gem Lake City Council ordinance.

Discontinuance of Water Service.

(A) Conditions. The City reserves the right to discontinue service to any consumer of the municipal water system whenever: (1) The owner or occupant of the premises served, or any persons working on any pipes or equipment thereon which are connected with the water system, has violated or threatens to violate or causes to be violated, any of the City’s water utility regulations.

Financial Management 6 Major Financial Steps of Your Life

By Miriam Caldwell 1. Getting Married One of the most exciting times is when you are about to get married. It is thrilling to begin planning and preparing for the wedding. After the wedding, you will begin your ďŹ nancial life together. Money is one of the most difďŹ cult topics to deal with in a marriage. It is important to address this issue from the very beginning of your marriage.

This will help you and your spouse work towards the same goals. Open communication about your ďŹ nances will help your marriage be successful. Working together can help you achieve your goals. If you are having a hard time compromising, you may want to take a budgeting class together or go to counseling to try to work on these issues.

2. Getting Out of Debt Once you begin to settle down in the working world, you should get serious about getting out of debt and using your money wisely. Once you are debt free, you can begin to accumulate real wealth. This will help you to achieve your dreams and move forward. If you continue to make payments you are limiting what you can do with your money. Choosing to live debt free is one of the best decisions you can make for building real wealth. A debt payment plan and a clear timeline can help you achieve this more quickly.

3. Buying a New Car You may also reach a point where you want to buy a new car. A car is necessary in most cities. It is important to prepare yourself for this purchase. If possible you should pay cash for your car, but if you can’t you need to shop for the best loan options available. Additionally, you should be careful about how much you spend on your car because a payment can limit what you can do in the future. It is also important to realize that your car is not a true asset since it depreciates in value each year.

4. Buying Your First Home Another exciting time is when you purchase your ďŹ rst home. This is a big decision and commitment. You need to be sure that you are ready to purchase a new home.

Additionally, you need to understand the terms of your mortgage. You should have enough money set aside to cover emergency home repairs. It is also important to consider the additional cost of insurance and property taxes. If you plan carefully you should be able to transition into home ownership easily. If you are working on this goal, you should focus on saving up a down payment.

5. Finding the Right Career Path After a few years in the workforce, you may be ready to move onto a new career. You can look for promotions inside your company, or you may look elsewhere to ďŹ nd better beneďŹ ts and a more lucrative salary. This is an important step. You want your income to continue to grow, and making the move at the right time is part of that. You should make sure that you are prepared to make the changes a new job would require. You can also take additional classes or certiďŹ cation training to make yourself more marketable.

6. Investing Your Money Additionally, you should begin to seriously invest your money. You will be responsible for your own retirement costs. Investing is essential if you want to live comfortably and not worry about your later years. It can also help you pay for your children to attend college. Investing your money can be intimidating if you do not understand what you are doing. However, if you ďŹ nd a good ďŹ nancial planner, he should be able to explain everything to you in detail.

We provide full service nancial planning and investment advisory services specializing in personal planning, small business, non-pro t and governmental employer groups.

RELAY FOR LIFE WHITE BEAR LAKE RE-LEI FOR LIFE

Join Us

Friday July 29, 2016 • 6:00pm • WBLAHS South Campus

Photos by Mike and Barb Yungers

This year’s Manitou Days theme was Musical Bears.

When John Evans, long time Relayer, got the call he was honored to be chosen as the Grand Marshal. They were looking for someone who represented music, community service, and longevity within the area. The community of White Bear Lake can attest that this certainly was a perfect pick.

Evans was thrilled, but he did have one small request, that he be the representative of the talented musical community we have here in White Bear Lake.

The 2016 Manitou Days Grand Marshall is humble and kind and definitely supportive of service within the community.

Evans emphasized how important it is to build the community and how he felt that “community is the root of everything.” If you build the strength and the sense of community, everything you do will fall into place.

For the past 22 years, Evans has devoted so much of his

time, effort, and talents to our White Bear Lake Relay. At his very first Relay, John’s participation included a small performance with what he explained as “just another gig,” he sang Morning is Broken. What he did not expect was a lifelong commitment to this growing community of people who have been touched by cancer.

From the beginning, he has been a “classic Keith recruit,” Evans explained. Keith Warner had been with Relay from the beginning, recruiting so many amazing people, and most of which still continue to participate in Relay. Warner passed away from cancer in December of 2013. Evans and Warner had been long time friends and avid church goers at Saint Mary’s.

After that first Relay John began picking up more tasks as needed until he became the all-around entertainment guru.

About six or seven years ago he finally considered himself “hooked on Relay” John chuckled as he exclaimed. He now heads all things music, lighting, sound, infrastructure, and power along with Dave Lenz.

John has many connections with cancer as both brothers have been affected by prostate cancer, and he has lost his mother and three sisters to breast cancer. “Cancer is everywhere,” he said, and it truly is.

We are all only one degree away from cancer, whether it be a

friend, family member, neighbor, coworker, or passerby.

“The American Cancer Society is so effective it is hard to say no,” Evans explained. It really draws you in and “the amazing people on the committee are so talented and devoted it feels like one big family,” said Evans. This is why the White Bear Lake Relay has one of the highest participation satisfaction ratings in the nation, which is hard to beat.

John explained, “It is the hardest to convey the rush that comes over you when the lights go off during the Luminaria Ceremony,” it makes all the hard work over the past year to get the job done, absolutely worth it. The moment the lights go off it takes your breath away and immediately you are overwhelmed with emotion.

Then to take a step back and really think about what it is we are supporting, and how our efforts never go unnoticed, it is overpowering.

“CAFÉ SOCIETY”

“THE INFILTRATOR” (R) [STRONG VIOLENCE, LANGUAGE THROUGHOUT, SOME SEXUAL CONTENT, AND DRUG MATERIAL.] — A riveting, intense, factually based, superbly acted, well-paced, star-dotted (Amy Ryan, Jason Isaacs, Olympia Dukakis, Richard Katz and Michael Paré), 127-minute thriller based on Robert Mazur’s autobiography in which clever, smart, hard-as-nails Florida customs official Robert Mazur (Bryan Cranston), who has a wife (Juliet Aubrey) and two children (Niall Hayes and Lara Decaro), goes undercover as a legitimate business owner in Tampa in order to launder money with his reckless partner (John Leguizamo) and a greenhorn agent (Diane Kruger) and concocts an elaborate, daring, dangerous scheme in 1985 to throw a wide net in an attempt to capture notorious drug dealers (Benjamin Bratt, Rubén Ochandiano, Yul Vazquez, Daniel Mays, Joseph Gilgun, Simón Andreu, et al.) and greedy, unscrupulous bankers (Saïd Taghmaoui, Art Malik, Tim Dutton, et al.) involved with the Colombian Medellín Cartel that imports more than $400 million worth of cocaine into the U.S. each week.

“THE PURGE: ELECTION YEAR” (R) [DISTURBING BLOODY VIOLENCE AND STRONG LANGUAGE.] — Extreme violence dominates this disturbing, action-packed, suspenseful, timely, somber, 115-minute thriller in which a tough-as-nails former police sergeant (Frank Grillo) tries to protect the anti-purge presidential candidate (Elizabeth Mitchell) during the night of the purge in Washington, D.C., in May from her opponents (Ethan Phillips, Tom Kemp, Raymond J. Barry, et al.) while a deli owner (Mykelti Williamson), his protégé (Joseph Julian Soria), and a concerned EMT friend (Betty Gabriel) try to protect his store and the senator.

“WIENER-DOG” (R) [LANGUAGE AND SOME DISTURBING CONTENT.] — A shocking, horrific conclusion punctuates this dark, quirky, 88-minute film that follows the mixed-up life of a lovable dachshund as it is passed from owner to owner, including an inquisitive young boy (Keaton Nigel Cooke) whose coldhearted parents (Julie Delpy and Tracy Letts) look for excuses to get rid of the dog from the time they brought it into their pristine Colorado home, a compassionate vet technician (Greta Gerwig) who travels to Ohio with a crystal meth addict (Kieran Culkin) and ends up giving the mutt to a couple (Connor Long and Bridget Brown) coping with Down Syndrome, a down-on-his-luck acting

professor (Danny DeVito) who desperately tries to sell his screenplay, and a blind, elderly woman (Ellen Burstyn) whose estranged granddaughter (Zosia Mamet) finally pays her a visit looking for a handout.

Worth a Look Forget it

Update Your Retirement Checklist You’ve been smart about building your wealth. Now make sure you’re on track to grow and protect it for yourself and your loved ones.

The Landmark Group has an extensive and in-depth working knowledge of 3M benefits. Join your friends and colleagues in getting valuable information from an experienced, professional team working for Thrivent, named one of the “World’s Most Ethical Companies®.”1.

3M Retirement Checklist

3

Tues., July 26 or Thurs., July 28, 2016 11:30 am – 1:00 pm Lake Elmo Inn Event Center 3712 Layton Ave. N., Lake Elmo

Educational only; no products will be sold.

Workshop topics include: • Creating a dependable retirement income distribution strategy so you don’t run out of money.

• Understanding Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs).

• Bridging the gap to Medicare: Coordinating your 3M health credits (RMSA/HRA) with Medicare to address medical costs.

• Moving your 401(k) assets to an IRA. Is it right for you?

To register call Loretta at 651-779-9720 or email landmarkgroup@thrivent.com.

The registration deadline is the day before each event.

Over the past 10 years, the Landmark Group has presented more than 100 educational workshops for 3M employees and retirees.

• Recent IRS tax ruling: It’s now possible to move some of your after-tax 401(k) dollars tax-free to a Roth IRA. • Estate Planning: Do you need a trust?

• The 2016 estate tax exemption, and the documents you need in order to avoid probate and minimize taxes.

• How 3M stock within your 401(k) can potentially receive favorable tax treatment.

• Using inherited IRAs and 3M 401(k)s to extend taxdeferred status to your kids, grandkids and other heirs.

While some of the information is 3M-specific, others are welcome to attend.
