City deems home on Sandra Lane unlivable; no charges yet BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

At left: Capt. Joel Schmidt and firefighter Matt Wenzel extinguish a simulated home fire that took less than two minutes to become fully involved once it was ignited. The open house also featured public safety information, rescue demonstrations and fire truck rides.

WHITE BEAR LAKE — There are no charges yet against the man who was living with two decomposing bodies on Sandra Lane, but the Police Department expects to turn the matter over to the Ramsey County Attorney’s office this week. According to Capt. Dale Hager with the White Bear Lake Police Department, family members are helping Robert Kuefler return to the house, which was declared uninhabitable Sept. 21 by the city’s housing inspector. “They are hiring a cleaning company as we speak,” Hager said. “We believe things are being taken care of at the house and we expect him to move back in.” The day after police discovered the bodies of an elderly woman and man in the home, located in the 4700 block of Sandra Lane, Code Enforcement Officer Jeff Rose placarded the residence stating it was not livable. He was escorted into the house with a police officer. “Conditions were unsanitary at the time,” Rose said. “Basically there were bodily fluids and lots of bugs; mostly flies and maggots.” There was no stench in the home, just the smell of cigarettes, added the building official. Rose said Kuefler was advised to hire a professional cleaning company to deal with the areas where the bodies were found. “Besides those areas, it was a normal house,” he said. “It SEE SANDRA LANE, PAGE 8A

Farm-to-school program makes lunchrooms fresh BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE — Gone are the days of canned pears and peaches floating in sugary syrup on lunch room trays day after day. Over the last five years, a term called “farm-toschool” has rocked the school lunchroom boat in districts across the nation. Now, it is a national movement. White Bear Lake Schools is jumping on board. One of its closest and most familiar local farmers is Pine Tree Apple Orchard in Dellwood. From the end of September through January, students in the district will have the option to eat a variety of kinds of apples from just down the road or across the lake. The apples last in the orchard’s cold storage until mid-winter. Pine Tree Apple Orchard has been around since

1904 and is co-owned by six siblings who grew up eating their parent’s apples; Art and Dickie Jacobson bought the orchard in 1958. Several years ago, son Bill Jacobson began to approach districts with the apples. He remembered his dad had sold apples to schools long ago before it became popular for districts to have a “one-stop shop with vendors,” Jacobson said. His offer was accepted by the down-to-earth culture of today. He now sells apples to 19 districts. “I just put on a clean shirt,” Jacobson remembers of his meeting with White Bear Lake Schools staff. “I showed them my apples and everyone said ‘Yes.’” The district’s partnership with Pine Tree Apple Orchard has inspired new Nutrition Services Coordinator Bridget Lehn to expand the grassroots initiative SEE FARM TO SCHOOL, PAGE 8A

Members of the Orsett Golf Club in London (wearing the white jackets) played members of the White Bear Yacht Club in a friendly Ryder Cup-like match last week. The home boys won

Yacht Club site of mini Ryder's Cup BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

European golfers were welcomed with open arms to the White Bear Yacht Club in advance of one of the state’s biggest sporting events. When they heard Hazeltine would host the Ryder

SUBMITTED

Golf pro Chris Nathlich said the Londoners were looking for places that could accommodate larger groups and set up a match against members. They also played Legend at Giants Ridge and a course in Golden Valley prior to the Ryder Cup.

Cup, the Yacht Club’s golf chair, Bob Edgar, and head pro Chris Nathlich started marketing the historic course to both national and international visitors. The effort started at the PGA merchandise show in January. Nathlich reached out to two head pros at similar clubs in Chicago, site of the last Ryder Cup on U.S. soil. “They opened their playbook, offering advice on what worked and what didn’t,” Nathlich recalled. “Then we identified the 40 top clubs in the country. We sent personal letters to the head pros asking they keep us in mind for members attending the Cup.” Their networking efforts resulted in about 1,100 PGA professionals eventually getting the letter, including some outside the country, which yielded about 160 players from various places. The focus of the letter was on the course’s long history, plus the fact it’s ranked in Minnesota’s top five and in the top 100 classic courses nationally, according to Golf Week. Golfers from England, Germany, Sweden and Norway accepted the invitation. And how did their guests like the course? “They were blown away by our hospitality,” Nathlich said. “They loved the course.” Included in the $250 fee was a cart and lunch. Many stayed and enjoyed a steak dinner across the street at the Yacht Club’s Commodore Room overlooking White Bear Lake. “Their passion for the Ryder Cup is intense,” Nathlich observed. “It’s unbelievable how much they love this event. Hosting it helped put Minnesota on the golfi ng map.” The Brits also have a unique connection to the Yacht Club course. The fi rst pro was an Englishman named Tom Varden. His brother was U.K. golfi ng icon Harry Varden. Members of the White Bear Yacht Club not only enjoyed a mini Ryder Cup, but some were also invited to serve as marshals for Hole 5 at Hazeltine during the event. Yacht Club member Mark Mammel was one of them. “I was standing directly behind the 5 green next to David Feherty (golf personality) and various radio commentators and photographers,” he said. “It was very busy

in the stands. Even though the PGA planned for big crowds, it appeared to us we could use more bleacher seats and, of course, potties.” An estimated 200,000 people attended the Cup in Chaska. This was the fi rst time the golf tournament was played in Minnesota. For the Yacht Club, the Ryder Cup offered a oncein-a-lifetime opportunity. “We had to take advantage of it,” said Nathlich, who is in his second year as head pro. “This gave us a lot of national and international exposure that benefitted the club by bringing in late season revenue. You never know what planting these seeds will produce later down the road. The course was in perfect condition. The weather couldn’t have been better. It was spectacular — perfect golf weather.”

City has new trash hauler The city of White Bear Lake’s contract for solid waste and recyclable collection has been purchased by Republic Services. This contract was previously held by Troje’s Trash Pick-up Services, which fi led for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in January of this year. Republic Services took over operations Oct. 1 and will continue to utilize Troje’s trucks and carts throughout the transition. Pickup dates and rates for White Bear Lake customers will not change as a result of this transition, but route changes may be considered for future efficiencies. In the meantime, the hauler asks that carts be in place by 6 a.m. on the day of your scheduled pickup. Republic Services is a locally operated company with a national presence that provides pickup ser-

vices in neighboring cities of Maplewood, Vadnais Heights, North St. Paul and White Bear Township. The current contract term ends on Aug. 31, 2019. Residents will continue to receive invoices from the city of White Bear Lake for standard refuse and recycling services. For inquiries regarding size change-outs and cart repairs, yard waste pickup or pickup of bulky items, please call 952941-5174. For questions regarding your quarterly bill, contact the city of White Bear Lake’s Utility Billing Clerk Jen Morse at 651-429-8565. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this transition. From city press release

News tube cheers

his fall I did what any good runner-turnedreporter would do – I ran all the way around White Bear Lake in the Lions Bear Water Run 10-miler. Besides my husband standing along the course with the elephant-shaped ‘SARA’ sign he made when I ran my fi rst marathon and the eccentric cheerers at the water stops, my inspiration came from something most of the runners probably didn’t notice. Every few hundred feet, I passed by a green Press Publications newspaper tube. Those green boxes began to cheer me on. Every time I spotted one, I pretended it was cheering me on Story in my run around the lake this community calls home. I was esChaser pecially inspired when I passed Sara Marie Moore a home in Mahtomedi with a yard full of people with bells and on all the runners – and of d music i cheering h course, there was a green Press Publications box beneath their mailbox. For over an hour, I took in box after box, analyzing their abundance as my legs began to ache more and more. The newspaper tubes weren’t just cheering me on in my race anymore. They were cheering me on as a community journalist. I thought about the readers who, week after week, wait for the news in their tube. I especially thought about the subscribers and how their subscription payments cheer us on in our work. When I crossed the fi nish line, my husband was there with a bouquet speckled with orange flowers, the White Bear Lake Lions were there with orange and white t-shirts and some blessed volunteers with pickles to restore my depleted electrolytes. I had conquered all 10 miles of White Bear Lake. I had actually run around the lake for two reasons: I’m a runner and I’m a reporter. When I wanted to get back into running, I chose a run around a local lake supporting an organization in the community I write about. I figured my run around the lake I drive around while on the hunt for a story would be inspiring. I’m grateful for all the readers who cheered me on with their newspaper tubes in more ways than one. Through your subscription, you are cheering on local news. A few days after my run around White Bear Lake, I found myself circling the lake for a story. I stopped fi rst at Sunrise Park Middle School, about a third of the way around the lake from our office. I checked out the new salad bar and heard about the district’s farm-to-school program. Afterward, I drove immediately to Pine Tree Apple Orchard; it sells apples directly to the district. I was now halfway around the lake. Amidst the cherry-red apples and the iconic barn, I couldn’t help but be struck by what the apple grower told me. His dad used to sell apples to local schools long ago, but then food service apparently became one-stop shopping. Thankfully, our culture today is back on track and buying apples from local growers. As I drove the rest of the way around the lake back to the office crunching on a caramel apple fresh from the orchard, I remembered my race along the route I was now driving. It has been those in the community who buy local that have helped 100-plus-year-old businesses like Press Publications and Pine Tree Apple Orchard to endure, just like the news tubes along my run inspired me to keep going. Our newspaper needs your cheers and your subscription. Fill out an envelope today. Sara Marie Moore is editor of the Shoreview Press and Vadnais Heights Press.

The scams continue Recently our department held a Fraud and Scam Presentation at the Normandy Senior Center in partnership with the White Bear Lake School District. We are pleased to report that the room was ﬁ lled and extra chairs were needed to seat everyone! Each year our department offers community wide presentations as scammers continue to change their tricks and ﬁ nd new ways to lure Cops in victims. Corner For those who missed the senior Sergeant center event – don’t John Vette fret, as we hope to offer you some good advice in this article. Also, continue to monitor our Facebook page (www.facebook. com/whitebearlakepolice department) and Twitter Account (@wblpd) for info on new scams and upcoming presentations. We have learned that fraud victims are of all ages, yet a disproportionate amount of targeted victims are seniors.

We have learned that fraud victims are of all ages, yet a disproportionate amount of targeted victims are seniors. hand in fear by saying that if you don’t “act now” something bad will happen. They may call you and claim your computer will be disabled, or a loved one will be hurt, or a grandchild may be locked away in jail. Remember —- nothing is urgent. Slow down, contact loved ones independently, and get help in dealing with the situation before taking out cash or buying these scammers a gift card. For example, in one recent case a lady was contacted by a scammer who claimed to have kidnapped her grandson. An actor was heard in the background screaming in pain. The caller directed her to go the bank immediately and take cash out, and threatened to hurt her grandson if she hung up the phone or did not comply. Luckily the bank called the police and through investigating the caller ID number it was quickly conﬁ rmed that the caller was overseas. Her grand-

son was ﬁne, no money was lost, and the scammers moved on. Once again the fraudsters used fear, emotion, and time as their nasty tricks to accomplish their evil goals. In our presentation we offered the Top 5 basic tips when contacted by a scammer. Follow these, and you surely are less vulnerable: 1). Do NOT trust strangers 2). When it comes to a “now or never” opportunity, choose “never.” 3). If an offer sounds too good to be true, it probably is. 4). Do not buy go out and buy gift cards for anyone! 5). Contact a trusted family member or call the police if you are not sure. Scammers often request Green Dot MoneyPak cards, Itunes gift cards, or money sent through wire transfers. These are all red ﬂags as most legitimate organizations do not handle money transactions using these methods. Don’t do it – it’s a scam!

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

MN DNR | SUBMITTED

Graph produced from DNR data.

Fluctuating lake level not unusual I’m responding to the opinion piece from the Friends of WBL on Sept. 21, 2016. I’m a 63-year resident of this area and I’ve seen the lake go down and come back twice now. I guess I did not know until recently that those little round buildings near the lake had wells and pumps that maintained White Bear Lake levels. The water level is not unusual. The website for “MNDNR lake water level report” shows that from 1924 to 1937 the lake was at an average of 921.3 feet compared to 922.64 feet as of last week. The lake is 15 inches higher than the historical average before any artificial augmentation started in the ’40s. What is the normal level for White Bear Lake? We can’t say, because artificial augmentation for over 50 years hides the truth. For 26 years without augmentation, from 1990 until today the average level was 922.89 feet. We are within 3 inches of that rolling average. The lake level was lower than today in 1924 before there was any land development or cities. White Bear Lake has been lower in the ’90s and recovered its level with only rainfall, even after many cities are pumping their water from wells. Is White Bear Lake special? Both Turtle and Snail lakes experienced low levels in the last 26 years and have now recovered. Lake Superior 120 miles north was 2 feet lower during the last 17 years and has recovered, allowing ships not to bottom out in the harbor. Now that rain has raised the lake the Friends of WBL are saying that proves we need augmentation. It is obvious that the Friends are looking for a way to maintain their private lakeshore every year and have someone else pay for it. If the Friends of WBL want augmentation, then all the parties that own lakeshore — including the city and county — should pay the bills in relation to the lakeshore footage that they own. Craig Johnson Vadnais Heights

Found column ‘baffling’ Roger Chamberlain’s column on the differences in vision of the two major parties was baffling (“Differences in vision,” Sept. 28). He said that one party “doesn’t trust you to make good choices” and therefore wants to control our lives. He claims to be talking about the DFL, but what he’s describing sounds more like the Republican Party’s view on women’s access to health care, including contraceptives and abortions. He further suggests that the DFL has “a pattern of self-service.” But again, that sounds more like the Republican Party’s ploys of limiting voters’ rights through voter ID laws and other tactics, as they hope to make voting inaccessible to minorities, students and low-income residents. Sen. Chamberlain’s descriptions seem out of whack. It is a topsy-turvy world when Republicans spurn Minnesota business leaders’ pleas for transportation improvements — including light rail. Thankfully, Democrats have a “people first” mentality and want workers to be able to get to their jobs and businesses to be able to market

their goods via a reliable infrastructure. Democrats agree with business leaders that in order to recruit and keep workers and businesses in our state, we need a mix of roads, bridges and mass transit. Louis Asher Vadnais Heights

Too many deer We recently were told the city of White Bear Lake and Mahtomedi will not join with Birchwood to reduce deer populations, which increase every six months. One doe has two or three fawns and the bucks keep coming back and rub their antlers on young trees and kill them. They stand on hind feet and eat tree branches and leaves when flowers and bushes have been annihilated. The does and fawns come back and eat whatever they can reach, leave manure piles all over the lawn, which bring flies (almost horseflies) and also deer ticks. Then, when they run out of the yard they smash/plow thru wood fences (made of tree branches) and metal fencing is smashed down. Any roses, bushes, flowers (except wildflowers) and buds are chewed off morning, noon and night. These are wild predators, not pet ponies. So let’s invite NRA (National Rifle Association) volunteers to be in charge, give meat to food shelves, reduce insurance costs for collision. Some voters think it’s fine to kill babies, then sell their body parts and taxpayers are forced to pay costs — but no action on deer overpopulation. What would President Donald Trump do? A friend in Hennepin County tells her cousin a doe and two fawns are after her garden, apple and cherry trees. Next day she comes home from shopping and was surprised to see a doe hanging from a tree (bow and arrow hunted) and is happy to be rid of that predator problem. Jo Haus Birchwood

Thank you for successful Grassroots Celebration Lakeshore Players Theatre extends a sincere thank you to everyone who attended our “Grassroots Celebration” on Sept. 17. We were thrilled to host a large public event to officially introduce the community to the future home of the new performing arts center. The event was a great success; we estimate nearly 500 people came for a fun afternoon of kids’ theater games, treats, live bluegrass music, face-painting at the White Bear Center for the Arts’ booth and tours of the new building footprint. In addition, 50 commemorate seat plaques were sold, raising nearly $40,000 in one day. Lakeshore Players Theatre has raised nearly 75 percent of the fundraising goal to build a new multiuse performing arts center in downtown White Bear Lake.

White Bear Band and music director Shannon Anderson with birthday girl Ferol Grode.

Band kids make birthday party special I’ve been a White Bear resident all my life. I went to White Bear schools, as did my parents and my children Kegan and Ferol Grode. Shannon Anderson is the music director at South Campus and she knows my kids. Kegan played in the band when he was in high school and Ferol’s Special Ed classroom was across the hall. Ferol loved going into the band room every day to listen to the kids play, and Ms. Anderson was always kind enough to let Ferol come in. I contacted Ms. Anderson and asked if any of the students would be interested in playing for Ferol’s 21st birthday party. Fifteen students volunteered to come and play eight songs, including Happy Birthday, the WB school song and many more. They sounded fantastic and Ferol was so happy and excited to have them play for her. It really just topped the day off to an already wonderful, fun-filled day of face painting and balloon art. I was so grateful and appreciative to all these kids who came to her party, on their day off to make this special needs girl very happy. Ferol has always migrated towards music. It’s one of the things that I can use to calm, motivate or just make her happy. Ferol was born with a chromosome disorder call Partial Trisomy 13. She was born with cleft lip and palate and extra toes and fingers and is developmentally delayed. She has had over 18 operations in her lifetime but she is a super happy and healthy young lady. She has gone through the special education program in WB through 12th grade. She currently is attending 916 at Wels-S for her last year of school. She will be in a work program after she graduates. White Bear is a wonderful place to live. The community is second to none. Patty Perron-McLevish White Bear Lake

Tiresome rhetoric from legislator The “differences in vision” in Senator Roger Chamberlain’s “Legislator Lingo” column (Sept. 28, 2016) is a blatant example of the divisive “They are evil” rhetoric for which he is known. It is tiresome, especially considering the consistent lack of real solutions offered. Chamberlain’s views, if enacted, would take health care from millions, destroy public schools, and remove basic safeguards for friends and family among us who truly have a need. To suggest it is “quite clear” They are “self-serving and unaccountable” while “his” group is the opposite is ridiculous and the main reason state and federal government action has ground to a halt. If both Democrats and Republicans continue to view the other as evil, unworthy to serve, and as having no reasonable ideas, Minnesota will continue to get nowhere. Senator, as you know well, both Republicans’ and Democrats’

approval ratings are at an all-time low. That includes you. Those close to legislative workings realize Chamberlain is extreme and out of touch even when compared to pretty conservative colleagues. Chamberlain (in 2014) was among those voicing opposition to an anti-bullying bill, citing “First Amendment rights” of school kids. Really? Seriously? Kids have a constitutional right to bully other kids? Chamberlain argued schools should be left alone to handle bullying, and “Several Minnesota laws already are in place to protect children in schools.” He said this at a time when reports of bullying were increasing at an alarming rate, and when numerous youngsters in one nearby school district took their own lives – with bullying the primary cause. This is Chamberlain’s pattern. He longs for a return to the “good old days” (only good if you were the right color and had a good income), and apparently lacks the vision and ability needed to deal with 21st century issues. Hopefully the intelligent voters of District 38 will stand up to extremists and bully defenders like Chamberlain (and Donald Trump, for that matter), who do not represent White Bear Lake-area values. Pat Davern, a hard-working man of vision and AFL-CIO credentials, deserves our vote. George Kimball WhiteBear Lake

Trapping muskrats on Birch Lake The White Bear Lake City Council recently voted to trap muskrats on Birch Lake. It was stated by the city engineer that the population has “exploded” since trapping was banned in 2013. This has resulted in damage to the shoreline on the north side, blocked culvert drains, and could cause damage to the street. It was also stated that they would be humanely live trapped. Upon further review, that was not true. They will be caught underwater in a colony trap and drowned. I live on N. Birch Lake Boulevard so this was news to me. I decided to put my waders on and investigate the shoreline. I did not see any damage, and saw two muskrats in the four hours I was out there. Since the city has exempted themselves from the law it passed in 2013, I guess there’s nothing we can do about it now. But for next year I suggest two things. Put a mesh barrier along the shoreline so they can’t burrow into it. Use the money you’re spending on the trapper. And use the same mesh to block the culvert on both sides. This came from a wetlands specialist I’ve known for years. Easy Peasy. If you agree, please let the city and your councilperson know your thoughts. Betsy Larey White Bear Lake

RAMSEY COUNTY SHERIFF REPORTS The Ramsey County Sheriff’s Department reported the following incidents:

VADNAIS HEIGHTS • A prowler helped himself to a purse containing prescriptions, a driver’s license and a paycheck the afternoon of Sept. 21 in the Wal-Mart parking lot. “The vehicle was unlocked,” the 37-year-old Hugo woman admitted to deputies. • It started like most do, with yelling and name-calling, but the Sept. 21 morning confrontation soon deteriorated into something more serious. When the man threatened his 50-year-old girlfriend with a baseball bat, she called 911. The 51-year-old was jailed on pending felony charges of second-degree assault (fear of bodily harm), terroristic threats and possession of a dangerous weapon. • A Mom reported her 21-year-old “suicidal” son out of control the afternoon of Sept. 22. The agitated man was intoxicated and had been punching doors before leaving home, Mom said. The troubled man was found passed out on some nearby railroad tracks holding a half-empty 1.75-liter bottle of vodka. He was transported to Regions Hospital for a medical evaluation. • An employee at a 24-hour SuperAmerica gas station in the 1000 block of County Road E reported the theft of her 1996 Chrysler Cirrus sometime during the wee hours of her Sept. 23 graveyard shift. “The keys were in the center console and the car was unlocked, she told deputies ruefully. “But the thief won’t get far,” she added, “the car quickly overheats.”

• Passersby in the Wal-Mart parking lot saw two small children and a dog in a vehicle with the windows down and no adult in sight the evening of Sept. 24. When the kids were still there 30 minutes later, they reported it. Arriving deputies waited until a man showed up. “The dog would protect them,” the 32-year-old said. He was strongly lectured on “child neglect” and the dangers that could befall the 1- and 3-year old kids. • The bird-killing cat reported here on Sept. 10 was back at it on Sept. 24, according to a Berwood Avenue caller. RC Animal Control is looking for the offender. • When the renters on Bankers Drive were evicted for nonpayment Sept. 27, a small dog was left behind. The former residents could not be reached and the cream-colored Schitzu was impounded at Hillcrest Animal Hospital. • Employees of a manufacturing fi rm in Labore Industrial Court called 911 the evening of Sept. 27 after seeing a “heavily intoxicated” man stumbling around and trying to open vehicle doors. The 40-year-old local man, who tested a whopping 0.29 percent on the Datamaster, was cited for “vehicle tampering.”

WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP • A 15-year-old, gender not released, arrived at Northeast Metro School in the 2500 block of County Road F on Sept. 23, smelling of pot and was subjected to a pat-down search. A homemade pipe was found in the offender’s possession. The youth was

charged with possession of drug paraphernalia, a petty misdemeanor, and released to a parent. • A shoplifter was last seen leaving the Cub Foods parking lot in the 1000 block of Meadowlands Drive in a red pickup truck the afternoon of Sept. 25, according to an employee who called 911. No other information was released. • A “fluffy” white dog was taken to Hillcrest Animal Hospital after the 18-pound female was found abandoned at an off-leash dog park Sept. 25 on Otter Lake Road by dog walkers and turned over to county Animal Control. • A 12-year-old juvenile, gender not released, faces a pending charge of disorderly conduct after a Sept. 26 incident at Northeast Metro School 916 in the 2500 block of County Road F. No other information on the case, which was forwarded to the county attorney’s office, was released. • A traffic stop at County Road H2 and Bald Eagle Boulevard on Sept. 26 for a stop sign violation quickly turned into something more. The driver, a 33-year-old Moorhead man, who was wanted on a Douglas County felony warrant for his arrest for burglary, an Ottertail County felony warrant for theft and a pair of misdemeanor Hennepin County warrants, was also charged with gross-misdemeanor false information to police and booked into the Ramsey County Jail. • A report of “shots fi red” in the wee hours of Sept. 27 in the 5900 block of Bayberry Drive was deemed “unfounded” after an on-site investigation.

WASHINGTON COUNTY SHERIFF REPORTS The Washington County Sheriff’s Office reported the following selected incidents in Birchwood, Dellwood, Grant, Mahtomedi, Pine Springs and Willernie:

GRANT • Hit-and-run to a parked vehicle was reported at 4:02 p.m. Sept. 23 in the Mahtomedi High School parking lot. • A Brooklyn Park woman, 20, was cited Sept. 24 on 80th Street N. and Ingberg Court N. for instructional permit violation.

FARM TO SCHOOL: Creating healthier options for cafeteria lunches FROM PAGE 1A

Salad bars and snack bars in the schools

inspired by a local farmer into a fullfledged farm-to-school program. “We are in the infancy stages,” Lehn said, who is in her second year with the district. In season, green peppers come directly from Pahl Farms in Apple Valley. The district also has several vendors who are not direct farmers but purchase from local farmers. The district purchases local tomatoes and corn from Bergin Fruit in St. Paul. The district gets milk from Agropur Milk in Maplewood. The majority of their milk comes from Minnesota cows raised on Minnesota land, reported Lehn. Bread in the schools comes from Franklin Street Bakery in Minneapolis, which has flour milled in Hastings. Tortillas come from Catallia Tortillas in Eagan. Lehn is working on getting wild rice and other grains from a local company in Bemidji. Since the start of school, the district has been getting apples from an orchard in Wisconsin, until Pine Tree Orchard’s more local apples are ready. Lehn would really like to find a local farmer who sells watermelon for the first few weeks of school next year. Buying from local farmers benefits the farmers, district, students, taxpayers and the environment. The less distance food has to travel, the more economical it is to purchase. Fewer trucks rumbling food across the country also means less environmental impact on the earth. On Oct. 13 at noon, students at Birch Lake Elementary will all simultaneously take a bite of an apple from Pine Tree Apple Orchard in celebration of national farm-to-school month — along with 1 million others in the Midwest who will participate in the Great Lakes Apple Crunch with their own local apples.

Lehn is also creating healthier options for students even if those options don’t all come from Minnesota farms. A salad bar was piloted in one high school and one middle school last spring. It started up this fall in all secondary schools. The salad bar has a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables and an option of a sandwich or another daily entree. The salad bar is the same price as a regular meal, and students can take as much as they want. The regular entree lines also have fresh fruits and vegetables. The salad bar fits in perfectly with the reusable trays that were also brought back last year. For several years, the district had used biodegradable disposable trays. But the district decided it would rather “spend labor and save the environment,” Lehn said. “It is a lot nicer for the kids and the environment.” The school’s snack bars also don’t look anything like the snack bars she grew up with. Lehn remembers eating Starburst for lunch because it was available. Today, no candy or pop is allowed to be purchased during school hours. Instead, juice and healthier snack options are sold. And the district tries to make those snack options as local as possible, too. JonnyPops, all-natural, real fruit popsicles made by locals in St. Louis Park, are sold in the snack bars. MixMi Treats, peanut-free puppy chow made in Ramsey, is also sold in the snack bar. Of course, families can always pack in extra apples from their own visit to the orchard for lunches or snacks. “A lot of kids who go to White Bear have our apples in their lunch boxes,” Jacobson said while standing in his apple sales barn filled with apples and apple-baked treats. “We’ve got a home for every apple.”

Apples hang fresh on the trees at Pine Tree Apple Orchard in Dellwood Sept. 21. The orchard sells apples to White Bear Lake Schools from September to January.

MINNESOTA PARENTS SUPPORT HEALTHY SCHOOL LUNCHES and Blue Shi Shield Minnesota this month A Blue Bl Cross C d Bl ld off Mi t poll ll thi th revealed l d many Minnesota Mi t parents t want healthier options in schools but few speak up: • 93 percent of Minnesota parents believe there is a connection between students’ health and their ability to learn and succeed in school. • 69 percent say they do not believe or are unsure if all Minnesota children currently have access to healthy food and opportunities for physical activity during the school day. • 12 percent of Minnesota parents have actively asked their local school to provide healthier options. 68 percent say they have been generally supportive of past proposals to include healthier options; only 6 percent say they have actively opposed changes.

wasn’t filthy but the bugs made it an issue. They will have to discard a mattress in a main floor bedroom and a downstairs chair.” Officer Hager said he doesn’t “officially” know where Kuefler is living but that family members are assisting him. Charges are still expected, but not per the initial booking. Hager believes that charge will change. Police arrested Kuefler, 59, on suspicion of financial exploitation of a vulnerable adult but released him 48 hours later. “We don’t believe he financially exploited anyone while they were alive, so that charge is not accurate,” Hager said. “We know there will be some type of financial charges, but not according to that statute.” Kuefler was released from custody two days after his arrest due to state law that requires law enforcement to charge or release a suspect. Due to the amount of evidence to sift through, the department was not ready to pursue charges within that time period. As noted in earlier reports, Kuefler had told police the two people in the home had passed away on separate occasions in 2015 and he just had not taken care of the bodies. The Ramsey County Medical Examiner’s Office has identified the deceased as Evelyn Kuefler, 93, the mother of Robert, and Richard Kuefler, Robert’s twin brother. So far, it appears the two died of natural causes. Police suspect Robert was cashing disability or Social Security checks sent to the home for his mother and brother after they died, but Hager said they are keeping possible charges “close to the vest until we are done with the investigation.”

One ‘stupid’ act and life changes forever BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

Twenty-three years after she broke her neck diving off a slide in White Bear Lake, Tiffi ny Carlson has found her calling. She has moved on from being a bitter, angry young woman to an advocate for the disabled. Carlson has also moved on from her hometown; a place she visits often to see family, but a place she’ll never live. “I have no interest in coming back to White Bear Lake,” Carlson said. “High school was a bad experience. The crowd I graduated with was uncomfortable around anyone who was different. If you had a disability, they wouldn’t talk to you.” A quadriplegic, Carlson recalled the day she broke the fi fth and sixth vertebrae in her neck, tearing her spinal cord. It was Aug. 25, 1993. She was 14 and about to enter ninth grade. “I was on a slide and dove off in 4 feet of water,” she said. “Other kids dove too, but I was the only one who got hurt.” Calling it a “stupid accident,” Carlson won’t be pitied. She prefers that people understand that spinal cord injuries (SCI) can happen to anyone at any time. Standard terminology for her injury is C5-6 quadriplegic. It means she can move her biceps and wrists but not her fi ngers. She is paralyzed from the waist down. It changed her world. After spending three months in the hospital, Carlson started high school in a wheelchair. She could no longer play the clarinet or dance, and abandoned her dream to be a cheerleader. If she could go back in time, Carlson maintained, she would try to reclaim those high school years. “I would be more outgoing and talk,” she said. After high school, Carlson attended Augsburg College — a disability-friendly campus — graduating in 2001 with a mass communications degree. Now 37, she lives in a New Brighton condo and supports herself by writing for New Mobility magazine. Her work on life with a disability has been featured in the Huffi ngton Post and Playgirl. She also serves as executive director for a spinal cord injury nonprofit based in Maryland called Determined2Heal. The organization was founded by an attorney who suffered a SCI at 18 and provides videos to help newly disabled people transition. Everything is done online so Carlson can work from home. Carlson also founded a disability website called BeautyAbility.com in 2000. “I thought I would help other girls in wheelchairs feel beautiful, so I wrote this book called “Wheelchair Fashion 101.” “I’m still motivated by this,” Carlson noted. “I feel women especially have bad self-esteem. They feel like no one will look at them again. I’ve also done articles on fashion advice. I’m really into adaptive fashion.” Carlson considers her advocacy work the coolest

thing she’s done. “I don’t have a husband or kids to talk about. My job is what I do. If we are born for a purpose in life, that is my purpose.” Asked if she’s dating, Carlson said she does have a boyfriend, someone she met online. “We haven’t been together that long but when you feel it’s right, it’s right. We’ll see what happens.” She is very close to her family, who all live in White Bear. Brother Dustin is a White Bear Lake chiropractor. Her father Paul is a local plumber. He and wife Celi live in White Bear Township. Her mother Vicki remarried Jeff Plaisted, owner of the White Bear Dairy Queen. Carlson has a stepsister, Sienna, who is a hairdresser at Mixx Salon. “Everyone stayed but me,” Carlson said. During an interview at the downtown Caribou, Carlson was frank and articulate while discussing life after her accident. “Not enough people know about our world, but it’s an important topic. Diving accidents account for 30 percent of spinal cord injuries after sports and car accidents. Your world changes. “There was some bitterness I had to work through,” she recalled. “I was so angry about how it ruined my life. There was a lot of self-discovery. You could say I was reborn a week before high school.” Still, she takes an “it could be worse” attitude about her disability. “I make the best out of a bad situation,” she said.

“I feel lucky I can drive my own van and do my own makeup.” In fact, Carlson had no trouble maneuvering around the tables in her 350-pound “tank” of a power chair. Hot water was her drink of choice at the coffee shop. “I love hot water,” she said. “It’s an Asian thing and very comforting, actually.” Part of being paralyzed is she gets cold easily, Carlson explained. “We can’t regulate our body temperature. I don’t sweat, so essentially, I’m cold-blooded.” Thanks to the Americans with Disability Act signed into law 26 years ago, accessibility is good in most places. She does wish people with SCI had more access to health clubs. “I’d like to get out of the house more and work out. I do adaptive yoga, which is really helpful stuff in terms of wellness.” Back pain is an issue from sitting for hours in a wheelchair. Carlson often adjusts her back to relieve the discomfort. She loves to cook and admits to “binge watching” TV shows. “I’m a sci fi nerd who used to cosplay. “Battlestar Galactica” is one of my favorite shows. If I had a bucket list, it would be to go to London, get married and move somewhere warm. My list is short. I don’t care to go skydiving. I’m afraid of heights.”

White Bear Lake Shortest Marathon One Block Run A big thank you to ALL who participated in the Fifth Annual Shortest Marathon for the benefit of the White Bear Area Food Shelf. Over 370 came with enthusiasm and smiles, donated, and completed the WHOLE BLOCK for a great cause. It was like a big party! Thanks to our mayor, Jo Emerson for leading us off again, and to Linda Osterbauer from the VFW for presenting the flag and leading us in the Pledge of Allegiance. Thanks to the sponsors of the tee shirts: Donatelli’s, Kim Bennett Ins. Agency, Abbott Paint and Carpet, VFW Post #1782 and East Central Screen Printers. Thanks to our food sponsors: Mueller Mortuary for the White Castles, Cub for water, Grandma’s Bakery for doughnut holes, Caribou Coffee on 96, and Sweet Treat Peddler for the ice cream treats. Also thanks to Subway for the treats at the Food Shelf open house and shirt distribution on Friday. It’s doubtful anyone lost any weight at this marathon! Thank you to my committee: Ron Carpenter, John Smith, Peggy and John Parenteau, Lois and Don Harvey, Cheryl and Bob Cunningham, Diana Trost, and Bobbi Svoboda. This event wouldn’t happen without their faithful assistance each year. My thanks also to the staff at the Food Shelf for their assistance and support, to Kris, Carter and Paul at the White Bear Press, and to Fr. Talbot and Matt Palkert for their assistance with publicity. OUR TOTAL EFFORTS MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF THOSE LESS FORTUATE WHO NEED TEMPORARY HELP. Gloria Carpenter, organizer

BUSINESS BRIEF Donatelli’s celebrates 40 years Since opening Sept. 2, 1976, Donatelli’s has been the go-to spot for many family celebrations and the restaurant has given back through investments in both time and money. In honor of its 40th anniversary, Donatelli’s will continue its tradition of giving back by donating 10 percent of all dinein sales to Second Harvest Heartland Oct. 10 through 13. Co-owner Steve Donatelli said the entire staff agreed to support the Minnesota food bank. Patrons are also invited to write favorite Donatelli’s memories on its Wall of Memories at the restaurant, 2692 East County Road E in White Bear Lake. Co-owner Trish Appleby added that cake will be served to guests during the celebration, “so make sure you save room for a piece.”

Spirit of White Bear Tourism Award recipient Explore White Bear presented its 2016 Spirit of White Bear Tourism Award to Dale Grambush at a reception Sept. 29. A resident and owner of the Farmer’s Insurance Agency downtown, Grambush is active in Main Street Inc., serving as promotions chair, Marketfest and the Economic Development Corporation. Explore Vice Chair Sara Hanson presented the award to Grambush, saying he “gets stuff done by quietly working behind the scenes.” The award has been presented annually since 2005 to “those who do extraordinary things,” she added.

The reception was held in the newly named Allen Ballroom at the White Bear Country Inn. Owner Bill Foussard announced the name change in honor of Andy Allen, the ﬁrst owner of the hotel. Allen was unable to attend but his family members were present to receive an “Andy Allen Day” proclamation from the mayor. Accompanying Grambush to the awards presentation were his parents, wife Tina, their two children, grandson and his fatherin-law. The reception was preceded by short tours of the hotel’s updated guest rooms.

Bears still winless after stirring near-upset at Mounds View BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR

White Bear Lake didn’t show much clout in its fi rst four football games, with three blowout defeats and a close loss to a foe that had lost 41 straight games. More of the same seemed likely when the Bears played at Mounds View, a 3-1 team that had beaten them 12 of the past 13 times, on Friday night. However, the Bears sprang to life and almost upset the Mustangs, falling short 34-27. Daniel Lyons completed 31 of 52 passes for 296 yards and was throwing into the end zone from the red zone the last three plays. The hosts batted down a fourth-down pass with seven seconds left to escape with the win. “It was a great game. We thought all week we would win and our kids believed that,” Bear coach Ryan Bartlett assessed. “Offensively we had a good night, but need to protect the ball and our QB better. Lyons is doing a great job making plays and competing. He’s a tough kid who plays hard.” Lyons, a 5-foot-11, 155-pound junior, mostly threw short passes to the fl anks, but did hit a wide-open Sam Broberg over the top for a 46-yard score. Lyons also had a 10-yard touchdown run. He was sacked four times and intercepted twice, not bad with 56 drop-backs. Jessiah Majest, whose shifty yet punishing runs have been the main threat all season, carried a season-low 15 times but rolled up 104 yards and a 21-yard touchdown. Broberg booted field goals of 33 and 36 yards and caught five passes for 72 yards. Matthew Muedeking caught 11 for 78 yards, Charlie Wachtler six for 88, and Blake Charles six for 42. Mounds View’s Xavier Myles ran for 115 yards and TD’s of one and 34 yards, Jack Graham ran for 108 yards and a 44-yard TD, and Ryan Nickel

had a 10-yard TD run and a long pass to Max Janes for a 52-yard score. The Bears will host Woodbury (2-3) on Friday at homecoming. “We feel like our best football is ahead of us,” Bartlett said, “and with homecoming approaching, we’re excited.”

“They’re all here for the same reason.

They are called White Bear Lake Area Schools Unified Bears because students with and without special needs are teammates. That’s the point, says founder Leslie Sieleni, in this joint effort by Special Olympics and the White Bear Lake school district. “This is a really big deal for these kids,” said Sieleni, mother of Sean, 16, who has Downs Syndrome. “Sean enjoys seeing his friends there. I never have to argue with him about going bowling.” By competing on the same team — bowling, volleyball and basketball are offered — the kids come to perceive they are not all that different, she said. “I am a huge advocate of inclusion, whether it’s in the school or community,” Sieleni explained. “Good relationships have developed … Kids are more accepting, more understanding.” Parents of children with special needs, she said, are concerned about lack of social

acceptance. Their kids are accepted inside the school, but once outside the walls, they are isolated. Their phones don’t ring, they don’t get invited to parties, they don’t attend football games, with the other kids. She co-founded PALS eight years ago so kids could mix at a monthly Game Day at YMCA for video games, swimming and bonding, just “hanging out” together with no parents allowed. They followed five years ago with the Unified Bears, in cooperation with the school district. “It’s a good story,” said activities director Tim Hermann. The kids practice each Sunday at The Pinz in Oakdale and compete at region and state meets later on. The school awards them a varsity letter. They have a float in the Homecoming Parade, tossing candy, to get the word out about the club. They get to be “typical teenagers” in those settings. As the kids practiced Sunday, Mark Deflorin, father of Kaitlyn, 11, mused about how winning and losing are irrelevant to them.

A boy named Donavan surmised that it would be “very hard” to have a disability but he enjoys mixing with the Special Olympians. “They help you if you’re down. They goof around, just like us.”

The scores on the board were in double digits and there were lots of gutter balls but the smiles never stopped. Jeff Parnell said he had a 112 once. Asked who’s the best bowler, Jeff cited Sean Sieleni, Leslie’s son. But Sean just shrugged, when asked about scores. “I don’t know,” he said, with a big grin. “I don’t care.”

The Zephyr boys, who made their sixth state trip in 2014 and went 12-4-1 last year, are in basically start-over mode with a new coach, mostly rookies on the field and just two seniors in the lineup.

One lone resident questions street assessment BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE — With the exception of a Fourth Street resident who had a question, no one spoke during the assessment roll hearing for the 2016 mill and overlay project. City Engineer Mark Burch called the project successful and told the City Council that property owners will be assessed the usual one-third of the $604,200 cost, per city policy. Assessment fi gures for fi xing the seven streets, including Fourth, Bald Eagle Avenue, Willow Avenue and Buerkle Road, have not changed since fi rst proposed in March. Affected property owners have 30 days from Sept. 27, when council approved the roll, to pay all or part of the amount at City Hall, if they wish. Otherwise, the assessment is certified to the county for payment via property taxes starting in 2017 at an interest rate of 4.25 percent for the next 10 years. Resident Mike Brooks asked the city how the assessment fi gure is derived. He is paying $1,650 for work to Fourth Street and questioned whether his property gains that much in value, as is required by state statute. Burch replied that yes, the city’s appraisal fi rm found the assessment was fair. “The appraiser’s conclusion was that the city’s assessment rates are low compared to the rest of the Twin Cities area,” Burch said, and offered to share the report with Brooks. The Fourth Street resident felt there should be a “counter weighting” in determining value, meaning the new surface makes it more desirable to drive on his street, which results in more traffic and more carbon dioxide emissions. Mayor Jo Emerson pointed out that some cities charge property owners 100 percent of the cost and many charge two-thirds. City Attorney Roger Jensen noted that those cities that charge most of the improvement costs to property owners frequently face appeals in district court. The judge then determines if the benefit from increased market value exceeds the cost of the improvement. “Those cities frequently lose those appeals,” he said. “We have not lost an assessment appeal since 1977.” A review of the assessment rate policy will

likely appear before the council in the near future, Burch added.

Conversation about color Red, green or terra-cotta? The gazebo at Matoska Park is getting a new roof; but what color? Burch informed the council that the red tar paper covering the Matoska Park gazebo is in disrepair and needs to be replaced before winter. The 130-year-old gazebo was a surprise gift for the daughter of Thomas Erd, Anna, and her new husband, Emil Geist. It was moved to the park in 1974 when the White Bear Lake Women’s Club got permission to renovate the gazebo with the condition it be relocated. It was restored in 1999, upgrades that included the red roof. Burch reached out to the same advisory committee that took on the project 16 years ago. An architect with the group recommended a terra-cotta-colored, standing seam metal roof, which is what the city plans to use. Councilman Kevin Edberg felt a metal roof was not in character with the historic gazebo. “Is there a way to give it an aged appearance?” he asked. Burch said red tarpaper could not be found. The important thing is to keep water out to prevent further damage, he added. The mayor wondered why green wasn’t chosen. Councilman Doug Biehn felt it was a decision best left up to city staff. “I guess you’re moving forward,” the mayor told Burch. The new roof will cost $2,795, which Emerson felt was reasonable. Money will come from the 2016 park capital improvement budget. The downtown depot is also getting a new roof this fall. Bear Roofi ng is providing free labor. The council was assured a “historic color” will be selected.

Update on Highway 96 bridge Last Wednesday, Sept. 28, the Highway 96 ramp to southbound I-35E closed. Motorists will want to take the County Road E ramp to southbound I-35E during the closure. The ramp is expected to reopen in late October. MnDOT urges motorists to always be attentive, drive with caution and slow down in work zones. The ramp closure is part of the two-year I-35E Goose Lake Road and Highway 96 road resurfacing project. In addition to resurfacing, the work includes widening the road, redecking and widening the Highway 96 bridge, replacing the I-35E bridges over Goose Lake Road, updating drainage, repairing guardrail and constructing a trail.

Gondola Nationals row into Stillwater BY JACKIE BUSSJAEGER STAFF WRITER

STILLWATER – Most visitors to Stillwater are familiar with the gondola that often plies the waters near the Lift Bridge, offering romantic rides to strollers enjoying a day trip to the city. What Stillwater visitors may not be familiar with is that there are cities across the nation that have their own iconic gondolas, and that many of them will be visiting town Oct. 22-23 to compete in the fourth annual Gondola Nationals competition. John Kerschbaum is the owner of Gondola Romantica, the Stillwater-based business that offers scenic gondola rides on the St. Croix River. According to Kerschbaum, the U.S. Gondola Nationals event has only been around for four years – one competition took place in Rhode Island, and two in different places in California in past years. Kerschbaum has competed in these events in the past, and this year volunteered to host the competition on his home turf: the St. Croix River. “I’m organizing the medals, registration and awards ceremony,” he said. “We’ll have a raffle for a free gondola ride if you bring an item for the local food shelf. We are going to give a talk on Saturday and Sunday at 1 about the history of gondolas and Venetian rowing from a few experts. It’s always fun to listen to them, it’ll be fun to have that open to the public and do a Q & A.” Closely associated with Italian culture, gondolas originated in Venice, Italy in the Middle Ages as a way to navigate the waterways of the city. Over the centuries, the canoe-like boat developed an asymmetrical design, allowing one boater (gondolier) to easily steer with a rowing oar from the rear. “They make them asymmetrical; the port side is longer and rounder, and starboard is shorter and straighter,” Kerschbaum said. “It keeps evolving. It’s a magic boat to handle. Once you get it going it’s the same amount of energy as walking. On a quiet, calm day, some

people can’t believe it doesn’t have a motor in it.” Competition activities begin at 8:30 a.m., Saturday, Oct. 22 in Lowell Park with the National Anthem. Races commence at 9 a.m., with an interlude for the public talk about the history of gondolas and rowing. In the afternoon, competitors participate in the obstacle course races, and the day’s events are followed at 6:30 by a pasta feed at Ascension Episcopal Church (214 Third St. N., Stillwater). Sunday follows the same schedule with a few different race events, and an awards ceremony will take place at 6:30 at Dock Cafe (425 Nelson St. E., Stillwater). Altogether there will be seven races, both single and tandem. New this year, Kerschbaum said, is the introduction of the obstacle course. He plans to attach

weights to some floating bumpers and arrange them in a course so gondoliers have to weave in and out around the barriers. Kerschbaum said the competition is a little different every year, in part due to location. There were more participants in the cities in California, he said, because there are simply more gondoliers there. Since travel is hard on the boats, and transporting them can be expensive, Kerschbaum had offered the use of two of his own boats that competitors will take turns using during the events. All in all, Kerschbaum said that the Nationals competition has allowed him to connect more closely with enthusiasts from across the nation. “Before the nationals started, I knew there were a couple in Boston, Rhode Island, San Diego; now they’re all

my friends,” he said. “It’s great to get together with 30 to 40 guys who are as nuts as you are about these boats. We have a great time.” And the fun extends to the rest of the community. ‘They’re the most recognized little boats in the world,” Kerschbaum said. “It’s the beauty and romance of old Venice. People are touched when they see the boats, and again when they ride in the boat. They’re fun boats. People like watching them; they’re unique. It’s different with seeing people in them, they’ll be stripped down, we’ll be racing them. The two-man four-man rowing contest has to be in sync to get the boats moving.” To learn more about the Gondola Nationals, visit www.usgondolanationals.com.

LEE AHLNESS | SUBMITTED

Jock Irvine, left, received the Brian Goyer Trophy awarded annually for outstanding and unselfish contribution and service to the WBYC Sailing Division at the club’s annual awards banquet

On Saturday, Oct. 1, 2016, our world lost one of the kindest, most generous souls to grace our lives. John (Jock) Ordway Irvine’s life was marked throughout by service and philanthropy, including a seat on the boards of the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra, the United Hospital Foundation, Hazelden, and Camp Widjiwagan. He was co-founder of the Ordway Center for the Performing Arts. He also was an avid sports fan, especially in his support of University of Minnesota Gopher athletics and as part owner of the Minnesota Fighting Saints. He was an avid hunter and fi sherman as well, having

been named angler of the year at Sailfi sh Point. Jock’s greatest passion, however, was sailing, where his talent and dedication to yacht race management earned him national recognition. He was the recipient of the Inland Lake Yachting Association’s Ed Malone Trophy, the Bilge Pullers Cannon Trophy, US Sailing’s Hanson Award, and the White Bear Yacht Club’s Goyer Memorial Trophy, each organization’s highest honor for service in race management. Jock Irvine was born Feb. 16, 1941, in St. Paul, Minnesota. He was the son of Thomas E. Irvine and Sally

Upstairs, downstairs: Two-story restaurant up in air BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE — If the developer of Boatworks Commons has his way, there will not be a restaurant attached to the apartment complex. If the city has its way, the two-story site will be a restaurant, at least on the first floor. Neither side is budging. The developer, Landers Group headed by CEO Michael Lander, is asking the city to amend a conditional use permit (CUP) to allow a professional office as a tenant in the commercial building that is part of Boatworks Commons. Along with his attorney and chief operating officer, Lander attended a public hearing Sept. 26 before the Planning Commission. They explained to commissioners why a restaurant isn’t feasible for the site on Lake Avenue S. and why an architectural firm is a suitable tenant. The firm is ready to move in as soon as the city amends the CUP, Lander said. Community Development Director Anne Kane told the commissioners that staff does not object to professional offices on the second floor of the building, but not the first. “From the onset, we knew securing a full-service restaurant tenant might be difficult,” Kane said. “However, staff is aware of two successful

restaurant operators who have expressed an interest in this location. The city was not provided the opportunity to offer financial assistance in the tenant improvements.” Kane would not reveal who the restaurateurs are but said they have been provided with lease terms and specified turnaround timeframes. Staff also questions the developer’s earnestness in securing a restaurant tenant. “We don’t know with what sincerity those terms were provided given we believe the developer has strong interest from the local architecture firm,” she told the commission. If this CUP amendment

is granted, Kane added, the opportunity to establish a restaurant will not be available for the duration of the lease for the professional office. Lander’s attorney, Wynn Curtiss, said the commissioners’ job is not to decide if the developer’s efforts are commercially reasonable. “Our efforts are being doubted. We dispute staff’s contention that we have not made a sincere effort to attract a restaurant. Your job is to apply the standards of the ordinance for a CUP.” When Lander went to the podium, he indicated expenditures in the “hundreds of thousands of dollars” attempting to find a restaurant operator to lease the 2,400-square-foot building. “We worked our tails off to get a restaurant there,” he said. “We did everything we could. We failed. We have to go to Plan B.” Plan B, Lander pointed out, is an architectural firm “currently a stone’s throw away” that has signed a letter of intent. “We think office use like this will bring daytime activity to the area,” added the project developer. “Lights will be on in the building. Employees will play croquet on the green space. There is no activity or programming at the community room right now. The front row is too quiet. We’ll work to bring life to that building.” The two restaurants mentioned by staff have dropped out, Lander said. “We don’t have a deal from either of these parties. It was merely an interest. They did not come forward in the way that we see good qualified tenants do with their act

together.” The Boatworks developer wanted the city to know he is passionate about the project. “We have put a lot of blood and sweat into this. To say we were not sincere or didn’t try very hard is insulting. It’s preposterous.” Commissioner Peter Reis questioned whether the two restaurateurs were interested or not. “This is a critical issue,” he said. Lander replied there has been no business plan or financials from any restaurateur. Reis asked Kane if the architect would be interested in just the second floor? “I believe they would not,” she said. According to Lander, his COO, Tony Kriha, knocked on doors soliciting potential restaurant operators for three years. Kriha told the commissioners seasonal issues with the location was a common theme from the 40 showings they held with qualified restauranteurs. “There are six main components why the site falls short,” Kriha said. “We wanted a restaurant there but it just doesn’t work. Our comments are based on the feedback we heard. We have done our diligence for the last 3 and a half years. The marketplace has spoken and it’s loud and clear.” Lander put it more bluntly: “The site won’t work. I have never, ever promised a restaurant,” he said. “We anticipated office use from the beginning. We are developers, we always have a Plan B. There has to be a point where we give up because it is our money. That time has come and gone.”

The site is zoned for a restaurant. “It’s what differentiated Lander’s proposal from prior concepts,” Kane said. “Everything on the original plans for a mixed-use redevelopment indicated a 110-seat restaurant. On all the plans Lander submitted, that is what he was proposing. To me, that is a commitment.” The city also expanded the public parking at the Boatworks site by 27 stalls to accommodate a restaurant, paying the developer $21,200 per stall to build the public parking level, read a city memo. That was a $570,000 investment to support the restaurant. Seven members of the Economic Development Corporation also attended the hearing. President Carol McFarlane said the group opposes amending the CUP. “Professional offices should be restricted to the second level with ground floors for uses that generate retail traffic,” she said on behalf of the advisory group. Downtown business owner Dale Grambush noted that people knew there were problems with limited visibility and seasonality back in 2012, yet everyone still wanted a restaurant. “We still want a restaurant,” he said. “I don’t find this request reasonable. It would change the character, spirit and intent of what we put together. I’m asking you to deny the request.” City Attorney Roger Jensen informed the commissioners that the city “takes the legal position that the obligation remains to retain a restaurant.”

Lander then apologized to the commission. “This project involves tremendous trust. You can’t trust us and for that I’m sorry.” Reis told Lander the trust comment made him “wince.” Speaking as one member, “that is not true,” he said, referring to a loss of trust. Chairman Erich Reinhardt felt it wasn’t a loss of trust, but a “wariness.” “It’s been a complicated topic for a long time,” he observed. After the hearing, the five commissioners voted to deny the developer’s request. The matter now goes to the City Council Oct. 11. In a followup phone call, Jensen indicated the council can only deny an application if they have a basis for denial that deals with health, safety and welfare of a community. “In this case, we have a contractual obligation on part of the developer to use reasonable efforts to secure a restaurant for the site on Boatworks development property. We believe evidence establishes that they have not used commercially reasonable efforts. And that is legitimate justification for denying the application.” “We’re hoping we can work something out,” Jensen added. “The city has some redevelopment funds available to help with the buildout of the restaurant. The city is prepared to offer some assistance.” As for the possibility of a lawsuit over the issue, if denied, Jensen had this to say: “If we end up in a lawsuit over this, that building might be vacant a long time. It wouldn’t make good economic sense.”

Home improvement projects for your fall to-do list Homeowners know that maintaining a home can be a year-round job. No home is immune to wear and tear, and homeowners who want to protect their real estate investments should try to stay two steps ahead to ensure their homes do not succumb to the elements or become outdated and unappealing to prospective buyers. Fall has become a season that’s synonymous with home improvement, but homeowners need not wait until the leaves begin changing colors to start planning their next projects. The following are a few items homeowners can add to their fall home improvement to-do lists.

Gutter cleaning While some homeowners prefer to delay their gutter cleaning projects until late fall, those whose homes are surrounded by trees may need to schedule two such projects. Gutters clogged with leaves and other debris can cause serious roof damage, and that damage can extend all the way inside a home. In addition, clogged gutters make great nesting areas for insects or critters. Always stand on a ladder when cleaning gutters, wearing gloves to remove items by hand and dropping leaves and debris into a trash can below. Standing on the roof and leaning over gutters greatly increases your risk of injury. If the gutters are clear when you first examine them in early fall, you can wait until later in the season to give them a complete and thorough cleaning. Once you have finished clearing the gutters, you can use a hose to run water through them and the downspouts to confirm everything is functioning properly.

Window and doorway inspection Before temperatures start dropping once again, homeowners will want to inspect their windows and doorways for leaks. Over time, cracks can develop around windows and doorways, and while such cracks are rarely noticeable when the weather outside is warm, they can be quite obvious and very costly if they remain unsealed come the start of winter. Cold air can enter a home through cracks around windows and doorways, and many homeowners who don’t suspect leaks

may respond by turning up the thermostats in their homes. That can prove quite expensive over a full winter. Choose a windy autumn day to place a hand by windows and external doorways in your home to see if you can feel drafts. If you can, seal these cracks as soon as possible.

Roof inspection Less precipitation tends to fall during the warmer months than during the late fall and winter. As a result, homeowners may not be aware of leaky roofs until autumn has come and gone. But waiting until winter to inspect the roof can prove disastrous, as weather conditions will not be conducive to inspection and increased precipitation may result in potentially costly damage. Leaky roofs can be easily identified by looking for water stains on interior ceilings. Once you see a stain, you can climb onto the roof to identify the location of the leak and fix it before winter rains and snowfall turn the problem into something much larger. Inspect your ceilings for signs of leaking after a strong rainfall, and then address any leaks immediately.

Patio cleanup

Patios are popular hangouts during spring and summer, and that can result in a lot of wear and tear. Once you store patio furniture for the winter, inspect your entire patio to determine if it needs any refurbishing. While certain patio projects may be best left for spring, you can still clean any stained areas around the grill and look for cracks in the sidewalk that need to be addressed. Preparing for fall home improvement projects ahead of time can help homeowners complete projects in a timely manner and ensures they won’t be forced to brave the winter elements when refurbishing their homes.

Tobacco smoke contains thousands of pollutants that can greatly diminish indoor air quality, so make sure smokers limit their smoking to outside the home throughout the year, but especially during winter. • Take off your shoes when entering the home. Snowy conditions often require a home’s inhabitants and guests to remove their footwear upon entering a home, but it helps to remove footwear in a mudroom or just inside the front door when entering a home even when it’s not snowing. Shoes can pick up dirt, dust and a host of other particles

during winter, and if tracked inside those unwanted guests can negatively affect indoor air quality. • Routinely inspect bathrooms for mold. During winter, mold can grow in rooms that are exposed to moisture but not properly ventilated. In many homes, that’s the bathroom. Even if a bathroom has a ventilation fan, routinely inspect the ceiling and shower for mold growth. Exposure to mold can cause a host of negative side effects, including nasal and sinus congestion and sore throat. Mold also can exacerbate asthma symptoms. Improving and maintaining indoor air quality in winter can help a home’s inhabitants stay healthy during the colder months.

How to avoid the cold discomfort of a drafty house For those who live in older homes, the transition to colder weather can be extra disheartening, as the vision of expensive heating bills, chilly rooms and drafty windows dance in their heads. However, it’s easy to change the outlook from cold to cozy with a few simple DIY solutions. The most effective way to improve the comfort level in your home is to properly insulate. Insulation can be inadequate in older homes. Over time, it can settle and compact, creating gaps. Topping up attic insulation will help keep the warm air in, reducing heating bills and preventing stress on your furnace. For easy installation, homeowners and professionals alike recommend a stone wool batt insulation product called Roxul Comfortbatt. For attics, aim for an r-value of R-50 or a depth of 16 inches. A little preparation can go a long way to keep the cold at bay. Seal out drafts by replacing worn weatherstripping and caulking along windows, doors, baseboards, and trim. For other ways to beat the cold, consider inexpensive window insulation kits along with thicker drapes, and don’t forget to reverse ceiling fans to push warm air back down.

Top 10 actions to care for your onsite sewage treatment system Hire a licensed maintainer to clean and inspect the septic tanks every two to three years. Cleaning frequency of a sewage tank depends upon tank capacity, the number of people using the system and use of appliances such as a garbage disposal. Follow your local government guidelines. All of the septic tanks in the system should be cleaned on each maintenance cycle.

Cleaning and inspection of tanks must be performed through the maintenance cover, not through inspection pipes.

2 3

Send only those items to the septic tank that belong there. Don't flush coffee grounds, cooking fats, drain cleaners, cigarettes, personal hygiene products or other non-decomposable materials into the sewer system. Do not use excessive amounts of household chemicals or anti-bacterial products.

4 5

Keep traffic off of the sewage treatment area, especially in winter months.

Don’t use "starter" products or additives to begin bacterial action in the septic tank.

6 7 8

Don't exceed the capacity your system was designed to accommodate. Take the correct action to the sound of a lift tank alarm. This alarm has not been installed to alert you of the maintenance schedule. When the alarm sounds, there is limited reserve capacity in the tank. Check your circuit breakers to be sure there is power supply to the pump. Contact your maintainer for a repair call.

Keep a map or sketch illustrating the location of the tanks and treatment area and keep all system components accessible. Don’t install decks, playground equipment or extensive landscaping over the system.

Practice water conservation and periodically check and repair your plumbing fixtures that leak or are dripping water.

“DEEPWATER HORIZON”

— Phenomenal special effects dominate this riveting, intense, factually based, well-acted, 107-minute thriller in which a supervisor (Mark Wahlberg) who has a wife (Kate Hudson) and daughter (Stella Allen), tries to save other workers of the 126-member crew on the Deepwater Horizon (Kurt Russell, Gina Rodriguez, Dylan O’Brien, Ethan Suplee, Joe Chrest, et al.) along with a BP bigwig (John Malkovich) 41 miles off the Louisiana coast when the Transocean oil rig has a massive blowout and an explosive fire breaks out on the oil rig that eventually spilled more than 210 million gallons of crude into the Gulf of Mexico.

What a great showcase of Minnesota weather we experienced for the Ryder Cup. It truly doesn’t get much better than this: sunny, light winds, low humidity and comfortable temperatures. Our recent “dry spell” couldn’t have come at a better time. Colors are changing over northern Minnesota and I’ve seen a few colorful Maples in my area. Waiting for the ﬁrst frost to get rid of those pesky mosquitoes. Coots on White Bear Lake this past weekend as they make their way south.

Crossword

“BLAIR WITCH”

Fun Fact

A duck can’t walk without bobbing its head.

(R) [LANGUAGE, TERROR, AND SOME DISTURBING IMAGES.]

— When a grieving Maryland college student (James Allen McCune) is joined by a group of friends (Corbin Reid, Brandon Scott, Wes Robinson, Valorie Curry and Callie Hernandez) in the search for his sister who went missing in the Black Hills Forest in 2014 in this creepy, disappointing, lostfound-footage, 90-minute thriller sequel to “The Blair Witch Project” dominated by jittery handheld camera work, they are terrorized by an unseen, menacing entity in the dark woods.

Did you know?

In Ancient Greece, throwing an apple to a woman was considered a marriage proposal.

“BRIDGET JONES’S BABY” (R) [LANGUAGE, SEX REFERENCES, AND SOME NUDITY.]

— A lighthearted, engaging, funny, star-dotted (Emma Thompson, Jim Broadbent, Celia Imrie, Shirley Henderson, Ed Sheeran and Gemma Jones) 122-minute romantic comedy in which a full-of-life, 43-year-old British news producer (Renée Zellweger) in London has a one-night stand with a handsome matchmaking guru (Patrick Dempsey) at a music festival, then with a straight-laced barrister (Colin Firth) and then finds herself pregnant, torn between two men and trying to figure out which one is the baby’s father.

“SNOWDEN” (R) [LANGUAGE AND SOME SEXUALITY/NUDITY.]

— Slow pacing hinders this intriguing, ire-producing, factually inspired, star-studded (Nicolas Cage, Joely Richardson, Shailene Woodley, Scott Eastwood, Timothy Olyphant and Rhys Ifans), 134-minute, behind-the-scenes Oliver Stone film based on Luke Harding’s novel “The Snowden Files: The Inside Story of the World’s Most Wanted Man” and on Anatoly Kucherena’s “Time of the Octopus” that chronicles the fast-track career of computer programming genius and high school dropout Edward Joseph Snowden (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) as a CIA and NSA analyst and program designer to his covert meeting in 2013 with documentary filmmaker Laura Poitras (Melissa Leo) and journalists Glenn Greenwald (Zachary Quinto) and Ewen MacAskill (Tom Wilkinson) to expose the U.S. monitoring of millions of Americans and other citizens worldwide.

WENDY SCHADEWALD The preceding films were reviewed by Wendy Schadewald, who has been a Twin Cities film critic since 1986. To see more of her film reviews, log on to www.shortredheadreelreviews.com.
