Airport safety zone fears thwart townhome plans BY LOUISE ERNEWEIN CONTRIBUTING WRITER

WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP — Recent debate over a townhome development reached new heights for a planning application. Quite literally. A representative from Southwind Builders came to the township meeting on Oct. 5, hoping to hear Town Board supervisors give the green light to the Wyldridge Preserve South development. Instead of focusing on the planned 19-lot development at 5685 Portland Ave., the discussion shifted northwest and centered instead on 5860 Highway 61 N. — better known as Benson Airport. The submission for the seven-townhome, six-twin home development came in three parts. It was on the first part — an ordinance amendment to alter the airport safety zones — that progress stalled at 1,500 feet. A significant portion of the 22-acre Wyldridge Preserve South parcel is designated wetland, leaving just over six acres available for building. Because that land currently falls within an area designated as an airport safety zone — the approach to the runway at Benson Airport — additional restrictions apply to the property, limiting the development to one home per 3-acre lot. To maximize profitability on the 22 acres, Southwind Builders requested White Bear Township eliminate or modify the airport safety zone around Benson Airport, a move that would be permitted under state law since the airport is no longer classified as a public facility. Without the safety zones to contend with, the developer could construct three homes per acre.

Serial litigator suing businesses over disability access BY KRISTINE GOODRICH EDITOR

Several area business and property owners are being targeted by a serial lawsuit filer alleging their buildings aren't adequately accessible to people with disabilities. Among the approximately 100 lawsuits now filed by an organization fronted by a Minneapolis attorney, there are at least five involving White Bear area businesses. The owner of a pizza chain franchise in downtown White Bear Lake is being sued because of a step up to its front door. A White Bear Lake restaurant is facing a suit claiming it doesn't have enough handicapped parking spaces. Two property owners and a liquor store owner in Willernie and a restaurant and property owner in Mahtomedi are being sued because they don't have a handicap parking space marked with a sign and paint in front of their buildings.

HOURS: MON - FRI 7-6 • SAT 7:30-2 • SUN CLOSED

The local and state chambers of commerce meanwhile are working to educate local business owners about accessibility laws and are lobbying to change the laws to protect business and property owners from lawsuits if they promptly correct any violations. A Minneapolis attorney named Paul Hansmeier is behind the flurry of lawsuits across Minnesota. The suits, filed in both federal court and district courts, all claim lack of building accessibility violates the American Disabilities Act as well Minnesota human rights and anti-bias laws. The suits ask the court to award punitive damages and mandate that the access barrier be corrected. According to multiple news reports from across the state, Hansmeier offers business and property owners the option to pay a cash settlement instead of going to court. According to the response filed by the attorney representing Bill Rust, Hansmeier demanded $3,500 from Rust to settle.

College student trekking down the Mississippi Jubilee Prosser of White Bear Lake is one of 12 Augsburg College students spending the semester traveling down the 2,350-mile Mississippi River. Prosser, a biology major, is part of the school's first-ever River Semester. Students earn up to 16 credits while they travel by canoe, boat, bus and train focused on biology, environmental studies, health and physical education, political science and other subjects. The class departed St. Paul on Sept. 1 in 24-foot voyageur canoes and will land in New Orleans by Thanksgiving. Students will return to the Twin Cities in mid-December. Along their journey and in New Orleans they are attending town hall meetings, meeting with environmental organizations and hearing from guest lecturers on topics ranging from Mark Twain to the Dead Zone in the Gulf of Mexico. Each student is required to undertake a research project. Prosser is studying public health and fish consumption patterns in communities along the river. She's exploring the public health effects of food-chain fish consumption and the presence of carcinogens in the river’s waters. “If you can imagine paddling down the greatest river in the U.S., accompanied by close friends and using only the pack on your back and the head on your shoulders, you must understand how happy I am. I’m learning lessons I can only learn from river travels,” said Prosser. Compiled from Augsburg College press release

New look

elcome to our new look and format. As you may have read for the last few weeks in the pages of your Press paper, or even participated in one of our many focus groups, this week is the first edition of our new format. The re-design for Press Publications’ papers has been on our radar for several years. The first step of the re-design was researching what other successful newspapers do and understanding what is important locally. A few years ago we launched a re-design of our Forest Lake and Stillwater weekly papers. The layout of those papers is similar to what Publisher’s you see in this paper you are reading. In those local markets, View the response has been overwhelmingly positive from readCarter Johnson ers and advertisers. The images below show the design and size changes from 2006 to today. Along this journey I was able to meet with some of the brightest in the publishing world to learn from their experiences. Last year I met with a publisher in Florida who has successfully launched multiple weekly newspapers during this last recession when many papers were failing throughout the country. What I gleaned from our conversation was to continue to provide great content, improve on the design and make it easy for customers to get a copy of the paper. His papers were delivered primarily via newsstands, whereas our publications are delivered to your home, in addition to dozens of newsstands throughout the community. We know from our audits that our paper is well-read; and there is no other local publication that provides the variety, depth, and sheer amount of local coverage that we do. Recently we brought in a design consultant to help us with our font choices, styles, design and layout. As you read through our pages, take in the additional news pages, the expanded calendar of events, crossword and Sudoku puzzles and guest columns. The paper itself is also easier to handle. User feedback states that this size is more enjoyable to read. If you’re a Google user, you obviously notice the new font choice in its logo. Take a second look at Google and your favorite brands and publications, then look at our font choices; you may notice some similarities. Additionally, this new format will allow better use of our printing presses by using the full printable surface of the press. I won’t go into the technicalities of what that entails, but the benefit to you, the reader, is that you will see more color photos and story packages. I welcome your feedback on our products and re-design, good or bad. We have a comment section on our subscription envelope, or even send me an e-mail or letter. With that being said we need your help. I encourage you to become a subscriber — as you know, the paper has been free to residents throughout our community for years, but we couldn’t continue to provide the level of local content and the widespread delivery widesp service servic we do without the support of our su print and digital p subscribers. subsc A1 Please Pleas fill out your envelope, go to www. presspubs.com\ pre subscription sub or call 651-407mecoming 1200. 120 I hope you ebrates Ho cel e Lak r White Bea access r disability love lo the new inesses ove r suing bus ato litig ial Ser look lo of your paper. p ns Press Publicatio Avenue 4779 Bloom Lake, MN 55110 White Bear TED REQUES SERVICE CHANGE

If you are the victim of consumer fraud, your whole family can be harmed. Fortunately, help is available. The Office of the Attorney General works year-round to listen to concerns from consumers and help the people of Minnesota. Lori Swanson, Minnesota’s Attorney General, issues warnings, negotiates agreements with businesses and Legislator sometimes files lawsuits against Lingo organizations attempting to Chuck Wiger take advantage of consumers. If you believe you have been a victim of fraud or are observing a violation of Minnesota law, the Attorney General’s office is ready to address your concerns. You can submit a consumer complaint with her office at any time, either through a Consumer Assistance Request or a Fraud Report Form found on her website. With these in hand, the Attorney General’s team can contact an organization on your behalf to address a problem, or build a case against a group perpetuating a fraud or a scam. Maplewood Police Chief Paul Schnell said lately his department is hearing from residents who have gotten calls from scammers asking them to verify their credit

card number because there is suspected activity on their account. “A legitimate caller will never ask you to provide your account number,” said Schnell. “If someone asks you to do that, report it to the police. We get calls multiple times per week about scams like that.” “We get calls every day from residents who have questions about a potential scam or fraud. We tell them that if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is,” said White Bear Lake Police Chief Julie Swanson. Swanson said her department encourages people not to return phone calls about free offers, such as a free cruise. A person who has been the victim of a fraud is encouraged to fi le a report with the police department. Some common scams are appeals to help a grandkid who is in jail, or a call from someone pretending to be from the IRS. “We investigate every issue, and provide advice,” she said. “We tell people that they cannot be too careful.” The Attorney General often protects—and helps taxpayers protect themselves—against tax scams or tax related identity theft. Sadly, tax-related identity theft and refund scams are on the rise: about 1.6 million Americans were victims in the fi rst half of 2013 alone. Consumer complaints help the office identify frequently used scams, warn taxpayers of harmful trends, and start to address the

problems they face. Here are some ways the Attorney General suggests you protect yourself against fraud: • Never provide personal or fi nancial information to unknown individuals over the phone, through email, or via text • Check your credit report at least once a year, and your fi nancial accounts regularly • Dispute incorrect information about your credit report with the credit bureaus, and immediately contact the fraud department of your fi nancial institution • Ask for credentials up front if you hire a tax professional to prepare your tax return • Do your research on businesses, charities, and tax preparers before providing financial information • The State of Minnesota’s efforts to combat fraud are a perfect example of how government should work for citizens. For more information about how the Attorney General’s office is tackling consumer fraud, visit her website, at http://www.ag.state. mn.us/. As always, if you have comments or questions about legislative activities, feel free to contact me at sen.chuck.wiger@ senate.mn or (651) 296 6820. — Senator Chuck Wiger Represents District 43 in the Minnesota State Senate

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Works for us With elections for the city of soon approaching, 5 Mahtomedi we write in support of Mayor Jud Marshall for mayor. For the past 12 years, Jud has served the community with a dedication and commitment that ref lect his love of this community that he has lived in for his entire life. When Jud first became mayor, the city had a problem with storage of city equipment. There was more equipment than space to store it in. Under his guidance, the city built a new building on city-owned property to store all of the equipment. Concerned for the environment, a holding tank was constructed under the back parking lot. It fills up with water, allowing the sediment to settle before the water goes into South Long Lake. In addition, the smaller parking lot in front of the building was constructed with pervious concrete to allow the potential runoff to seep into the ground. Another project that was completed under Jud's leadership was improving the water main on Park Avenue. The original 2-inch pipe that was installed in the 1930s was replaced with an 8-inch pipe last year. After becoming mayor, Jud encouraged the city to have two planning programs, one looking ahead 10 years, the other, five years. The programs are reviewed regularly to ensure that the city wants to keep all of the items. In addition to the many city meetings Jud attends, such as the Planning Commission, finance, environment, and park board meetings, to name a few, he regularly attends the Mahtomedi School Board meetings to keep informed. He is a10year board member of the Mahtomedi Area Educational Foundation. He also helps the Lions Club with events. Jud enjoys working with the people of Mahtomedi. He told us the reason is that the people in this community enjoy living here, and being

mayor is a great job. Let's re-elect Jud Marshall and keep him working for all of us in the community. Rand and Susan Kluegel Mahtomedi Effective leader Jud Marshall has been a lifelong resident of Mahtomedi. He has served extremely well as our mayor since 2003. Jud has always worked to make our community better, which benefits all of us. Jud has not only served as our mayor but has been an active member of the Lions Club, the Mahtomedi Area Educational Foundation, the Community Education Advisory Board and St. Andrew's Church. Jud has been an advocate for environmental protection of our community. Several recent city projects have also had a significant green content and more efforts are in the planning stages. Jud Marshall has dedicated his life to our community and has proven to be a very effective leader for our city. Jud has the years of background and experience than an effective leader of our city must have. Please join me in voting for Jud Marshall to continue as our mayor. Dale A. Johnson Mahtomedi Fresh ideas We have known Bill Coleman for over 30 years and are happy to support his campaign for Mahtomedi mayor. Mahtomedi is a great place to live, but many of the things that were issues when we moved here nearly 25 years ago are still issues. It is time for some new energy and fresh ideas, and Bill could bring just that. For 35 years Bill has professionally been helping communities throughout Minnesota and the nation reach toward their full potential. Economic development and community technology solutions are among his specialties. That kind of experience could be put to use

helping Mahtomedi reach its full potential. We could also use a fresh look at our infrastructure. Mahtomedi Avenue and Stillwater Road are among the issues that were here when we moved to town. Safety and accessibility is a big concern, especially if you have ever tried to walk or bike around downtown or to one of our schools. Bill has served Mahtomedi on the Planning Commission and the Community Education Advisory Committee, and he was instrumental in starting TEDx Mahtomedi and the RITE of Spring celebration. Bill knows that no one is smarter than all of us together, and he will work to engage our citizenry in meaningful, valued and wellplanned decision-making. He will also work to better coordinate Mahtomedi’s efforts with those of the school district, Century College, the local business community, and with our neighbors in Willernie, Dellwood, White Bear and Grant. We will be voting for Bill Coleman for Mahtomedi’s mayor on Nov. 3. Dorian and Margie Grilley Mahtomedi Profound decision The Press' Sept. 30 reporting of the retirement of longtime City Manager Mark Sather raises the question about how Mr. Sather's replacement will be decided. In section 4.05 of our City Charter it states that the “City manager is appointed by the mayor with the consent of the majority of the council.” If this path, created in 1979, is indeed the one to be used to locate our next city manager, and our next city manager's tenure resembles anything close to Mr. Sather's, the opinions and vision of the individual selected will inf luence vital decision-making on infrastructure, mobility, ageless community, environmental issues, etc. for a long time. It is a strategic decision that will surely shape the personality

and success of our city. A community should have a voice in making such a profound decision about itself. At a minimum, residents should understand the mayor's litmus test. What is she looking for in a new city manager? And what leadership qualities, opinions, experience and expressed vision will win the council members' wholehearted endorsement? These criteria and opinions need to be put on the table posthaste for public consideration and open discussion. Mike Brooks White Bear Lake Skill set we need I am writing in support of Ellen Fahey for the District 624 School Board. Our community is losing three very dedicated and knowledgeable leaders with the departure of Lori Swanson, Chris Hiniker and Cathy Storey; we must be diligent in choosing their replacements. Our schools need well-educated, experienced and passionate board members who will build on our past success and guide them into the future. Ellen Fahey is such a leader. Ellen is a strong advocate for public education. She has 39 years of experience in the field, holds an master's degree and is highly trained in biology and reading. She has served our district as a member of the Sunrise Middle School Building Leadership Team, the Academic Excellence Committee and Professional Development Committee. Ellen Fahey is known as a problem-solver. She is recognized for her persistence, f lexibility and willingness to listen. She has the skill set we need to bring positive change to our district while retaining our longstanding traditions. I urge you to vote for Ellen Fahey on Nov. 3. Let’s keep our schools and community moving forward! Rolf Parsons Former school board member White Bear Township

LAWSUITS: Local, state chambers of commerce educating and lobbying for protection FROM PAGE 1A

Rust owns the Domino's in downtown White Bear Lake and in July was the first area business owner to be sued. Rust is refuting the claim that the small step in front of the entrance to the Domino's violates federal and state laws. Rust did not return an invite to comment about his case by press time, nor did any other business or property owners contacted by the Press. The parties that are being sued over handicapped parking spaces are: the owner of The Village Sports Bar property in White Bear Lake, the business and property owners of 4 Seasons Restaurant in Mahtomedi, the business at property owners of Wildwood Wine and Spirits in Willernie and the owner of the building that is occupied by Roma Restaurant and Wine Bar in Willernie. The lawsuits were filed in August and September. In each of the cases filed locally and across the state, the plaintiffs are one of a handful of individuals with disabilities and an organization named the Disability Support Alliance. Hansmeier is the plaintiff attorney in each case. Hansmeier and associates at a Chicago law firm previously have been sanctioned by federal judges for numerous lawsuits demanding cash settlements from men who allegedly downloaded copyrighted pornography. The White Bear Area Chamber of Commerce held a Oct. 1 presentation educating local business leaders about the disability access lawsuits and what they can do to protect themselves. Chamber leaders and partners are planning to hold a second similar session in

KRISTINE GOODRICH | PRESS PUBLICATIONS

The Village Sports Bar is being sued, despite currently having three handicapped parking spaces

coming weeks; the date was still to-be-decided. “We support the Americans with Disabilities Act, but we want to protect our members against people who are taking advantage of that law to make money,” said White Bear Area Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Tom Snell. Ben Gerber, an executive with the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce who spoke at the Oct. 1 event, echoed Snell's endorsement of accessibility laws but concern

over exploitation for financial gain. Given the complexity of the law, he recommended business owners consider investing in an access audit. Experts in disability access laws can be hired to survey properties and identify any areas of non-compliance. The state chamber is also lobbying for revisions to the laws to block these type of serial lawsuits, which also have occurred in other parts of the country. Gerber said his proposal is to require that be-

fore a lawsuit can proceed, businesses must be given opportunity to correct a violation. The state chamber is concentrating first on lobbying for change to state disability law. Plaintiffs can be awarded damages only for state violations and not federal violations. Thus removing that financial incentive for plaintiffs would deter serial lawsuit filers in Minnesota, Gerber explained.

TOWNHOUSES: Developer wanted to build 19 homes on 6 acres in the safety zone FROM PAGE 1A

"We require zoning for public airports ... but no zoning is required for private airports. This is a private airport; you are free to do as you please," said Rick Braunig of the Minnesota Department of Transportation Aeronautics. "In truth, most pilots don't realize what safety zones they have around the airports; [if you modified the safety zones] you would see no difference in the flight paths or the risk to the neighborhoods." But many residents felt the safety zones, which had been implemented in 1984, were an important puzzle piece in the safe operation of the airport

and the peace of mind of those living nearby. "Changing safety zones does nothing to improve the safety of the residents," said Ronald Denn, of Portland Avenue. "It only gives benefit to one property owner and that's the owner of the [Wyldridge Preserve South] property. The focus is on the health, safety and welfare of the residents and also the users of the Benson Airport currently." In 1996, Benson Airport was gifted to White Bear Township in the will of its owner/founder, John Benson, on the condition the land would continue to be operat-

ed as an airport for at least the next 40 years. Discussion at the Oct. 5 meeting included concerns that airport use would be jeopardized by modifying or eliminating the safety zones. Continued operation of the nearby Lake Animal Hospital, as well as several homes on Border Pine Court, would also have been negatively impacted by one of the proposed modifications, which would have placed the previously compliant buildings inside redrawn safety zone lines. Supervisor Ed Prudhon revealed he had gone to extraordinary lengths to prepare for and research the

issues raised at the meeting, reading a prepared statement to give his conclusions: "On Sept. 3 this year, I went flying in a Piper Cadet and after taking numerous approaches into Benson Airport, to me it seems imperative that the township keep the safety zones in place," he said. "This proposal will put a wall of homes in the direct approach to the runway ... We put guard rails on sharp curves and embankments [on roads], but if no one hits them in 10 years, they don't just take them down ... The property was knowingly purchased by the applicant with the safety zones in place

... Modifying the safety zones would create a significant risk to the public and the users of Benson Airport." The usually unanimous board of supervisors was split on the fi nal decision, with chairman Bob Kermes siding with Prudhon to reject the rezoning and townhome/ twin home applications, while Steve Ruzek dissented on the question of the safety zones. Speaking immediately after the meeting, Southwind Builders owner Larry Alm said he was not sure of the next step. "It's hard to tell. There is no plan B. There was only plan A."

WHITE BEAR TOWN BOARD NOTES

Additional action taken by the White Bear Town Board on Oct. 5 included: • Awarded the contract for moving the old Town Hall from its present site on Hoffman Road to a new location at Polar Lakes Park.

3 streets on next summer's improvement list BY KRISTINE GOODRICH EDITOR

VADNAIS HEIGHTS — English Street, Montmorency Street and Hoffman Road East are in line for improvements next summer. Work has just recently wrapped up on this year's city road improvement project, and city leaders are already planning for next summer. Last week the council concurred with the staff recommendation to move ahead with planning to improve English, Montmorency and Hoffman. The roads' pavement will be removed and replaced. Curb repairs also will be made where needed. English and Montmorency are connecting residential streets off of County Road E that were built in 1970 and were resurfaced in 1995. Hoffman Road is a culde-sac on the city's eastern border serving commercial properties; it was built in 1984 and hasn't ever been resurfaced. SEH was hired to prepare the required feasibility report at a cost of up to $9,500. The report will include a more thorough examination of the current road condition, estimates of the cost of the road work and preliminary estimates of the assessments to each impacted property owner. Preliminary staff cost estimates are $354,000 for English Street, $256,000 for Montmorency Street and $212,000 for Hoffman Road. On Hoffman Road, the property owners will have to pay for all of their road work.

City policy is to assess commercial properties for 100 percent of road improvement costs. Assessments will be determined based on each property's front footage. On the two residential streets, the residents will be assessed approximately half of the cost and the city will fund the remainder. On each street, the residents' portion of the the cost will be divided equally and each property will be assessed the same amount. Based on preliminary estimates, the city's contributions for the residential streets would be $305,000. The preliminary capital improvement budget sets aside $325,000 in tax increment financing funds for next year's roads project. Before making a final decision to go ahead with the road work, city leaders plan to hold informational meetings as well as public hearings. Affected property owners will be notified by mail.

Drug treatment facility expansion nets opposition BY KRISTINE GOODRICH EDITOR

GRANT — A proposal to rebuild and expand a drug treatment facility drew many concerns from neighbors and City Council members last week. After a more than two-hour discussion at the Oct. 13 Grant City Council meeting, the council tabled action to its November meeting and requested more information from the applicant and the city attorney. The operator of the Cedar Ridge Treatment Facility at 11400 Julianne Ave. N. wants to expand its residential substance abuse treatment program for men. Meridian Behavioral Health proposes to rebuild the campus and treat up to 50 patients at a time instead of the current average of 36. The property has been home to a treatment facility since 1971. For the first two decades it served juveniles. In 1991 the City Council denied an application from a new owner of the facility to convert to an adult treatment program. The new owner filed a lawsuit against the city and the city agreed to conditionally allow the change and paid a cash settlement. The conditional use permit was updated in 1997. Meridian took over the facility in

2007 and since has acquired more land, bringing the property to 51 acres. The company proposes to demolish all of the buildings on the complex, including three dormitories (one of which is in disrepair), an administrative building and a recreation building. It would then build a single facility nearly 22,000 square feet in size. The new building would be near the western property line, not far from the Jasmine Trail N. cul-de-sac. A new 28-stall parking lot would be installed. The driveway and access at Julianne Avenue wouldn't change. Meridian representatives told the council that all patients are there voluntarily, are supervised at all times, and stay an average of one month. Some patients are referred as part of a criminal sentence but the facility doesn't accept violent offenders or sex offenders, they advised. All prospective residents undergo psychological screening and those found to have serious mental health issues are not admitted. The company's attorney noted that the new facility would include a perimeter alert system that would notify staff if any patient sneaks out of the building. Despite those assurances, several

neighbors said they don't want the treatment facility to expand. Keats Avenue resident Kris Thunhorst said she inquired with the Washington County Sheriff's Office and learned there have been 29 emergency calls to Cedar Ridge so far this year, including eight medical calls and four instances of patients disappearing. She reported her research also uncovered a 2010 police report of an alleged sexual assault at the facility and a sheriff's office investigation in 2000 (when the facility was under different ownership) found there were patients at the facility who had committed violent crimes and sex offenses. “When Cedar Ridge decides to act like a good neighbor to the citizens of Grant and we no longer have to be concerned about violent criminals wandering loose in our neighborhoods without notification, and the impact of that to our safety, welfare, mental well-being and property values, then perhaps discussing additional privileges for Cedar Ridge would be warranted,” Thunhorst said. “Why would we want to allow expansion of this facility with the current issues that are already going on?” Other neighbors talked of encounters with patients who left the facility. One

woman claimed she used a pitchfork to protect herself from a patient who refused to leave her property. Several neighbors reported they haven't received notifications of patients on the loose. The city permit granted in 1997 requires the company to call all neighbors who had requested alerts. The city attorney warned council members that neighbor opposition isn't a legally adequate reason to deny the application. Council members asked the Meridian officials to consider building a smaller facility and maintaining the current number of residents, or if they'd make a pledge not to seek further expansion in the future. The council asked Meridian to provide additional information and documents, including admission procedures and the patient code of conduct. Council members also discussed placing additional restrictions on a new facility, such as mandating that a taller fence be constructed around the property, residents wear location tracking devices, the company provide broader community notification when a resident goes missing, and patient admission evaluations be conducted by an independent psychiatrist. The council asked the city attorney to review whether the ideas are legally viable.

PUBLIC SAFETY BRIEFS Bicycle accident witness sought Investigators are looking for any witnesses of a fatal bicycle accident on Centerville Road in Vadnais Heights on Oct. 2. A bicyclist was found down in the roadway in the 4200 block of Centerville Road, near Birch Lake Boulevard S., at approximately 1:20 p.m. The victim, Robert Prudhomme, 57, of Cottage Grove, was unresponsive and was taken to a hospital. He died Oct. 9 after he was taken off life support. It is unclear what caused Prudhomme to crash and Ramsey County Sheriff's Office investigators hope someone witnessed the crash or was in the area and can provide clues. According to a sheriff's office spokesman, it initially was believed Prudhomme suffered a stroke while biking, causing him to crash. A medical professional later advised that it appeared Prudhomme sustained blunt force trauma that caused the stroke. There was no evidence that a motorist had struck the bicyclist and fled. A family member, however, reported that Prudhomme was an experienced cyclist and believed he wouldn't have crashed unless he was struck. Investigators are especially looking for a couple in their late 50s or early 60s in a gray or silver GMC SUV that was seen in the area around the time of the crash. Anyone who believes they witnessed something that could aid the investigation is asked to call 651-266-7320. Shoe store employee assaulted An employee of the Famous Footwear in Vadnais Heights reportedly was assaulted when she tried to prevent shoplifters from leaving the store. According to the Ramsey County Sheriff incident report: an employee at the shoe store in the Vadnais Square mall said a group of two females and three males tried to flee the store with six pairs of footwear the afternoon of Oct. 5. She said she was watching the group closely because an employee of a St. Paul

Famous Footwear location had recently called to warn her that a group had just shoplifted from the St. Paul store. The Vadnais Heights store employee said she stepped in front of the door and blocked the group from leaving. One man yelled at her to move and when she did not, she said the man pushed her and punched her in the face. Other members of the group then joined in on the assault, which moved to outside the store, the employee said. A person outside the store witnessed the tail end of the assault, saw the group get into a vehicle and was able to obtain the license plate information. The employee was treated for minor injuries. The alleged assault and theft is under investigation. Credit card thief sentenced A Mahtomedi teen who was caught with two stolen credit cards was sentenced to community service and probation. Cody Michael Buzay, 19, was sentenced Sept. 24 on a felony identity theft charge. He pleaded guilty in June. According to the criminal complaint: An employee of the Woodbury YMCA reported on Feb. 22 his credit card was stolen from the Y on Feb. 10 and was used fraudulently three times before he canceled it. The employee reported that a suspicious man who had been at the Y the day it was stolen was at the Y again. The employee said he followed the man into the men's locker room and saw him rifle through multiple lockers. The man, later identified as Buzay, was still in the locker room when a Woodbury police officer arrived. Buzay had two credit cards in his wallet, one belonging to the complainant and one belonging to another man. Buzay claimed he didn't know how the Y employee's card got into his wallet and he claimed the other card belonged to a friend who had given it to him. When later contacted, the friend said Buzay had taken his wallet about a month prior. The friend noticed his credit card was missing the following day and then

learned that someone had unsuccessfully attempted to use the card to withdraw cash from an ATM. The friend said he confronted Buzay and he denied taking the card. Buzay was sentenced to 30 days Sentence to Service, minus the three days he had already spent in jail after his arrest. He also was sentenced to five years probation and he must undergo gambling addiction and mental health screenings and complete any recommendations. Just a few weeks before he was arrested for identity theft, Buzay was convicted of misdemeanor DWI. Bank employee sentenced An employee who stole nearly $86,000 from the White Bear Lake branch of Wells Fargo Bank was sentenced to six months confinement or community service and he must pay restitution. Jonathan David Peterson, 32, of North Branch, pleaded guilty to felony theft in August and was sentenced on Sept. 29. He was ordered to spend 178 days in jail, on home detention or Sentence to Service. He had spent two days in jail after his arrest. He also was sentenced to 10 years probation, must repay the nearly $86,000 he stole and must complete gambling addiction and mental screenings and follow any recommendations. According to the criminal complaint, Peterson was a teller supervisor at the White Bear Lake bank and admitted to taking money from his cash drawer last May. He then tried to replace the funds by withdrawing funds from an account belonging to the White Bear Lake-based Pheasants Forever organization. Investigators also suspected Peterson was planning to steal more money when he tried to access the bank after it was closed the night a sizable amount of cash had arrived.

COMMUNITY BRIEFS Volunteers wanted for home water conservation study Race to Reduce is looking for 15 White Bear Lake homeowners to participate in a dual-flush toilet pilot study. In 10 homes, two toilets will be retrofitted with dual-flush systems that consume less water. The water consumption of the residents in each of the participating homes will then be monitored over the first quarter of 2016 and compared to consumption figures during the same period in 2015. Water consumption at five control homes will also be monitored and compared; those participating homes will receive a toilet retrofit once the study is completed. A $5,000 grant from the White Bear Lake Conservation District is funding the study. There is no cost for the 15 participants. Volunteers must live in the city of White Bear Lake and must have two toilets that use more than 1.6 gallons of water per flush

(toilets installed before 1992 likely meet that criteria). Homeowners interested in participating in the study should contact Sarah Alexander at salexander@ h20forlifeschools.org. Jacob Montgomery's science classes at White Bear Lake Area High School will assist with the pilot test and preparation of a study report. The report will include data from the pilot and, assuming that consumption at the 10 homes decreases, will also include estimates of how much water could be saved if all the area's older toilets are retrofitted with dual-flush systems. Food packers wanted The White Bear Area Emergency Food Shelf needs volunteers to pack food for its new KIDS Pack Program from 5-7 p.m. on the fourth Monday of each

month. The new program provides bags of food for the weekend to students in need in the White Bear Lake Area School District.

After obtaining a degree in library science from Augsburg College in Minneapolis, she served as elementary librarian in two schools in Mahtomedi until she retired in 1984. The Little Theater was of great interest to Bella, and she played many leading roles in Broadway musicals, both on the military bases oversees and in the little theater in White Bear Lake.

Charlotte Preston Charlotte Ann Preston died Thursday, October 8 at home, surrounded by loving friends and family. Born July 27, 1953 in Sublette, Kansas, Charlotte was the daughter of Charles Almon and Bertha Pauline Masquelier Preston. A graduate of Manhattan Bible College, Charlotte received her MA in English from Kansas State University, and studied further in the Ph.D. program in Rhetoric at the University of Southern California. She was a gifted teacher, first at Marymount College in Salina, Kansas, then at USC. Together with her wife, Mary Kurth and their son, Charlotte moved to Minnesota in 1993, and began her own business, Charlotte Preston Catalysts, Inc., and became a leading education consultant to the jewelry industry nationwide. Dedicated to community service, Charlotte was a past member of the White Bear Lake Chamber of Commerce, and was an active leader in her congregation, serving as president of White Bear Unitarian Universalist Church in Mahtomedi, and on the Board of Directors of the Mid-America Region of the Unitarian Universalist Association. In a 2002 presentation to her church, Charlotte said this: “I believe we can together arrest what is evil, nurture our children, buffer broken hearts, save this world.” Charlotte was a gifted essayist and lyricist and a powerful singer. Music gave voice to her spirit. She is survived by her beloved wife, Mary, their son Jake (Emma), her sister Sharon Stapleton (Roy Van), nieces and nephews, and a wide, deep circle of colleagues and friends. In the words of novelist E.B. White, “She was in a class by herself. It is not often that someone comes along who is a true friend and a great writer. Charlotte was both.” Charlotte’s family expresses deepest gratitude for the care team at the Cancer Center at Woodwinds Hospital. Memorial gifts may be made to White Bear Unitarian Universalist Church in Mahtomedi, or Doctors Without Borders, or Caring Bridge. Arrangements for a memorial service are pending.

Wild pot plants uprooted in Hugo HUGO A complaint from nearby residents led Washington County deputies to what patrol Sgt. Wayne Johnson described as "ditch weed." It all started when homeowners on Greene Avenue noticed teenagers parking on their street, then running in and out of the trees lining Oneka Boulevard. When deputies checked it out, they discovered hundreds of unattended pot plants. The weed was growing wild on private property along the road and would easily have gone unnoticed if not for observant neighbors. Johnson and members of the narcotics unit proceeded to pull more than 300 plants one day in early October and about 130 the next. "The stuff is

SHOREVIEW Shoreview Senior Living wants to build a second apartment complex adjacent to its existing building at Cumberland Street and Hodgson Road. The Shoreview City Council approved rezoning the site to allow the prospective development, which would still need council approval. The proposed building, still in the early preplanning stages, is projected to be comparable in size and style to the original complex, which boasts 105 apartment units and amenities including a theater and library. CIRCLE PINES Four people were inducted into the Centennial School District Hall of Fame last month, including Rosann Lorenz of White Bear Lake. Lorenz was recognized for leading the Centennial Dance Team from 1980 to 1996. Other honorees were: Tom Kaluza, a fourth-grade teacher from 19631998 and a founder of the Centennial Basketball Association; Craig Sturlaugson, a former geography teacher who coached

nine different Centennial sports teams; and Asha Blake, a 1979 graduate who became an Emmy-winning news anchor. FOREST LAKE Records at the Forest Lake Area Chamber of Commerce show it was incorporated in 1964, spurring observance of its 50-year anniversary at its Oct. 13 meeting. However, a chamber scrapbook donated to the Washington County Historical Society years ago indicates the group is even older. Newspaper clippings glued onto its pages indicate the group was actually founded in 1956 as U.S. Chamber affiliate the Greater Forest Lake Association. Either way, the nonprofit has been a continual advocate for local business through multiple community changes. “For a community the size of Forest Lake, to have had a chamber 50 years is quite an achievement,” said the group's Executive Director Ted Blank. “A lot of communities that size can't sustain one.”

HEALTH TRENDS

Mental Health: When “Something is Just Not Right” The start of school is a time of hope for success, growth, the joy of being with friends and the promise of something new unfolding for children, teenagers and their families. However, early into the school year, some parents begin to see signs that their children are struggling. Kim Lundholm-Eades, owner of CenterLife Counseling in Centerville and White Bear Lake, advises families to pay attention when they sense that “something is just not right.”

motivate them to explore an utilize productive means to attain them.

“We often hear families tells us about changes in eating, sleeping, mood, activity and behavior that worry them,” says Kim who is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. While some changes can be normal, a pattern of emerging extremes or extended periods of extremes is worth parental attention. These changes can impact the whole family system, increasing stress, disrupting routine, creating conﬂict between parents and confusion and frustration due to unsuccessful attempts to understand and intervene. By getting help and an outside perspective, families can gain reassurance that all is well and tools to help them process through normal changes, or if there is a more serious issue, treatment by a qualiﬁed professional.

Kim elaborates, “With young children we utilize play therapy to help children express what is troubling them.” Children are unable to understand and talk about their feelings the way adults do. For children, toys are their words and play is their language. When it comes to middle and high school ages, we co-create solutions with the teen, using their stated goals to

Financial Management TOP 10 TIPS FOR MANAGING YOUR FINANCES 1. Track your monthly spending. Many people do not know how much they spend each month on food, clothing, housing, or entertainment. Whether you are paying with cash, a debit card or credit card, total your expenditures at the end the month to gain a better picture of how you’re spending your income.

2. Develop a household budget you can follow. Using the data you’ve compiled by tracking your monthly expenses, develop a realistic budget so that it’s easier live with. Track how well you follow it each month – that means continuing to track your monthly expenses.

3. Be sure to budget for savings. Your savings are a Rainy Day Fund, which is important when unforeseen expenses or emergencies arise. Be sure to budget part of your monthly paycheck for deposit into a savings account – ideally at least 10% of each check. If you ﬁnd or earn extra money – put that away in a savings account, too!

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

763-689-9023 | 877-403-2374 www.efsadvisors.com Securities and Investment Advisory Services offered through EFS Advisors. A Registered Investment Advisor. Member FINRA & SIPC. 440 Emerson St N Ste 4, Cambridge MN 55008 - (763) 689-9023

4. Pay your monthly bills on time and avoid late charges Take inventory of your regular monthly bills and make reminders for yourself on when each bill is due. That way you can avoid costly late fees, which can also damage your credit score. The best approach is to pay bills as soon as they arrive.

5. Review your credit report. The details of your credit report can have an enormous impact on your ﬁnancial future. Obtain a free report once a year at www.annualcreditreport.com, and check it for accuracy. Be sure to dispute any errors.

6. Obtain your credit score. Your three-digit credit score tells lenders and businesses how well you manage your credit and your ﬁnances. Scores range between 500 and 850. The higher the number, the better the rating and the better chance you have of obtaining credit at a better rate.

7. Eliminate credit card debt. Credit cards can make it easy to pile on debt. If your debt adds up faster than you can pay it off, you’re likely living beyond your means. Stop using the credit cards and pay off existing balances – the sooner you do, the less you’ll pay in interest. Remember: not all debt is bad; taking on loans for higher education or to buy a home is really an investment in your future.

8. Take advantage of free money If your employer offers a contribution match for retirement savings or heath savings accounts, be sure that you’re contributing enough to obtain the maximum match amount. Otherwise, you’re missing an opportunity for free money. Maximizing your contributions can lower your taxable

income.

9. Assess your insurance policies. Insurance is an important tool for protecting against ﬁnancial hardships, and the premiums you pay can be one of your top household expenses. Talk with your provider to be sure you have the appropriate level of protection – that way, you’re not paying too much for coverage.

10. Use legitimate ﬁnancial institutions. Millions of people do not rely on traditional banks or ﬁnancial institutions to manage their money. Open a checking and/or savings account at an FDIC insured bank, savings and loan, or credit union. Be sure to research whether there are any fees for their services before choosing an institution

WHITE BEAR LAKE — The Bears got an extra kick out of beating visiting Roseville last Friday in the regular-season football finale for both clubs. The crucial kick came in the final seconds of the game from Bear senior Brett Hronoski. His 33-yard field goal with just one tick of the clock remaining lifted White Bear to a 31-29 victory, and also snapped a burdensome five-game losing streak. The seventh-seeded Bears enter Class 6A play with a 2-6 mark, and travel to play second-seeded Osseo Friday night to get playoffs underway. The winner of that game will meet the winner of the matchup featuring Hopkins and Rosemount at the site of the highest seed. Osseo brings a 5-3 mark into the contest. It's won two in row, including a 45-14 rout of Blaine last week. White Bear surrendered 445 total yards to Roseville, with Raider quarterback Henry Bensen doing most of the leg and arm work. Bensen had a monster day, with 21 completions in 27 attempts for 265 yards and a trio

of touchdowns. He also led the Raiders with 98 yards rushing on 14 carries. The game was knotted 7-7 after the initial quarter, and 14-14 at the half. The Bears took a 28-21 lead after three quarters on a Jessiah Majest three-yard touchdown run. Roseville threatened to steal the game with a late drive that resulted in a Bensen touchdown pass to Levi Brown. A two-point conversion run by Devin Dykes put Roseville on top 29-28, and set the stage for Hronoski's last-second heroics. Bensen hit Brown for the 17-yard touchdown to begin the scoring, and Bear quarterback Carter Kaun pulled White Bear even at 7-7 with a one-yard scoring dive. A Bensen-to-Dykes 38-yard touchdown collaboration began the second quarter, followed by a Majest fiveyard scoring run before halftime. Majest had a huge game to fuel the Bear offensive attack with 238 yards on 38 carries.

Zephyrs draw Millers in Section 4 kickoff BY MARK AGUIRRE CONTRIBUTING WRITER

The Mahtomedi football crew hopes to reverse its recent fortunes in Section 4(5A) play beginning this week. The Zephyrs (4-4) travel to Minneapolis Washburn Wednesday night for a bout featuring fi fth-seeded Mahtomedi and the No. 4-seeded Millers (4-4). The winner of that game will square off against top-seeded SMB (Blake). The Bears won the Twin City Gold Conference this fall, and enter the contest with an unblemished 8-0 mark. The other portion of the section bracket has third-seeded St. Paul Central hosting No. 6 Tartan, with the winner facing second-seeded North St. Paul. Section fi nals are set for Oct. 24. Simley dealt Mahtomedi its third consecutive setback last Friday in its regular-season fi nale. The Spartans

Zephyr boys soccer on to playoff s

built leads of 14-0 and 21-8, on the path to a 28-22 victory. The Zephyrs racked up 310 yards rushing and scored all three of their touchdowns on the ground, but could manage just nine yards passing. Simley had a pair of rushing cores in the opening quarter before Mahtomedi running back T.J. Tumbleson raced 22 yards for a touchdown. The Spartans quickly countered with a long-distance sprint to the end zone by J Woja. Woja ripped off a 79yard scoring run and led 21-8. Jalen Fryle had a four-yard touchdown run, and Simley quarterback Mike Busch plowed in from one yard out before the intermission. Tumbleson's one-yard touchdown dive was the lone score in the second half. Frye led everyone with 23 carries for 143 yards, and Tumbleson added 137 yards on 23 attempts. Quarterback Jared Johnson was 2 for 11 passing for nine yards, and also gained 30 yards on six tries. Quinn Lemke led the defense with 13 total tackles.

The first-seeded Zephyr boys soccer team (5-1 conference, 11-3-1 overall) enters Section 4A playoffs Thursday against the winner of an Oct. 13 game featuring Hmong Academy (No. 8) and St. Paul Johnson (No. 9). The Zephyrs finished the regular season tied for second with St. Thomas Academy in the Metro East Conference, behind North St. Paul which was ranked No. 1 in AA polls most of the season. Mahtomedi finished with conference wins at Hastings (1-0) and Henry-Sibley (2-1). In the Hastings match, senior Captain Tyler Pieper headed in a

2-2, 10-4-2). Fourth-seeded White Bear hosted No. 5 Woodbury Tuesday, Oct. 13 (after press time) with the winner facing the winner of the game featuring eighth-seeded Tartan and top-seeded Mounds View. The game is scheduled for Thursday at the site of the high seed. The other portion

of the section bracket has No. 2 East Ridge entertaining seventh-seeded Roseville, and third-seeded North St. Paul hosting No. 6 Stilllwater. Section finals are Oct. 20. Mark Aguirre

Triangular parcel appeals to senior housing developer BY DEBRA NEUTKENS REGIONAL EDITOR

HUGO — Supply is evidently striving to meet demand as aging residents seek assisted living. Yet another senior housing facility has been proposed in the city. This one sits on a 3.3-acre parcel currently zoned single-family residential. The applicant is DigniCare LLC, a senior living provider owned by St. Croix Holding Co., 855 Village Center Drive, North Oaks. In the company's planned unit development (PUD) application, Operations Manager Audrey McElwain described the proposed 20,000-square-foot facility as an assisted living and memory care community that serves the needs of the elderly. It will feature 32 private suites with 18 providing assisted living services and 14 providing memory care services. The facility will employ 20plus full- and part-time workers with an annual payroll of $285,000. In asking the city to grant the project a PUD, the developer pointed out that the project "provides an attractive use on a property that has been diffi cult to develop." It was further noted, "the project hopes to provide a solution that is neighborhood-friendly while serving the community." Current R-3 zoning allows 3 to 4 units per acre. The higher density requested in the PUD proposal is 9.5 units per acre. Though the project adds a higher density to the site than the current zoning provides, the density the project adds actually means less traffi c and parking than other housing types, noted the application. In a report to the Planning Commission, Community Development Assistant Rachel Leitz said the city has a "relatively high level of discretion" in approving or denying a rezoning application. The proposed zoning must be consistent with the city's Comprehensive Plan. If it is not, the city must deny the application. The city has similar say

in approving a PUD and may impose reasonable conditions on the applicant to promote the general health, safety and welfare of the community. The property in this case is considered medium-density residential, according to the 2030 Land Use Plan. Maximum density allowed with a PUD for this land use is eight units per acre, which would allow for about 26 units. The applicant is proposing 32; however, McElwain felt the request is reasonable because the facility is a "low-intensity user with a small visual impact." Leitz noted in her memo to the commission that residents of the building will be immobile, so the only traffi c coming in and out would be staff and visitors. It is staff's opinion that the nature of an assisted living facility is different from typical residential uses and doesn't fi t neatly into typical residential land use categories, Leitz wrote. Although the proposed density exceeds the allowed number, the impact on traffic and adjacent landowners is much less than an apartment building with the same number of units. Staff supports the proposed project,

she said. Access to the facility would be from 127th Street, which would be extended to Highway 61 with a right-in, rightout a likely confi guration. MnDOT is reviewing the request. The applicant is also requesting fl exibility to allow a 22foot rear yard setback adjoining Beaver Ponds 6th Addition; 30 feet is the minimum allowed by ordinance. "It will disturb the site," noted Bryan Bear, city administrator. "Area residents will have a building there instead of trees and fi eld. From a staff perspective, the proposal seems to serve as a good transition between the highway and the single-family [housing] in the back." Planning Commissioner Scott Arcand said people attended the public hearing with a preconceived notion that they would be opposed. "They quickly changed their mind when they had the real information." The corner piece has been tough to sell, Arcand pointed out. "I think everyone felt it would be a nice looking building and a good addition. I don't know what else the owner could have done with it."

The triangular-shaped property was sold by former owner Judd Jackson for development. The land is just north of Northern Pines Townhomes and south of 130th Street on the east side of Forest Boulevard.

A decision to recommend approval to the City Council was unanimous, with Corky Lessard abstaining since he lives in Beaver Ponds. The project is scheduled to go before the City Council Oct. 19. DigniCare is also planning projects in Roseville and Osceola, Wisconsin.

Applications that contain all of the information required by Minn. Stat. § 238.081, Subd. 4, and that comply with all state and local requirements, including the RWSCC’s Request for Proposal, must be received by 12:00 p.m. on Thursday, November 5, 2015 at 2460 East County Road F, White Bear Lake, MN 55110, and be addressed to the attention of Executive Director Timothy Finnerty. A copy of the RFP may be obtained from the RWSCC Executive Director, Timothy Finnerty. Each franchise application must be accompanied by an application fee in the amount of $40,000.00. This fee shall be made payable to the Ramsey/Washington Suburban Cable Commission. Applications shall be in writing, notarized, in a format which is consistent with that RFP issued by the Commission. Three hard copies and one digital copy (either on a CD or a thumb drive) shall be provided to the Commission at the address above in a sealed envelope. Every franchise proposal submitted by an applicant must include a design for a state-of-the-art cable system that is capable of reliably providing a panoply of cable services to subscribers of the Member Cities, except as provided below. It should include a build-out plan consistent with applicable law for the initial term, and otherwise set out the Applicant’s proposal for meeting community needs and interests and respond to the RFP. In reviewing each applicant’s franchise application, the Commission will consider all relevant factors it is required or permitted to consider under state or federal law, including, but not limited to: (a) the quality and capabilities of the cable system that will be constructed; (b) whether the application satisfi es cable-related needs and interests of the community, as identifi ed by the Member Cities and the Com mission, (c) whether the application adequately provides for capacity, facilities, equipment or fi nancial support for public, educational and government (PEG) use of the system (including institutional network use); (d) whether the applicant is fi nancially, technically and legally able to perform; (e) whether the application evinces an intent to improperly discriminate or deny service to any person, group or persons; and (f) whether the grant is otherwise in the interest of the public.
