Following the childrens’ event the 5K run will start and proceed down Ann Street. Runners will cross Main Street at 3rd street and continue down along the river until the turn around neat the end of the road. Back tracking, they will return to Main Street and then continue up the street ending at the finish line at Turner Park. Walkers will start about 15 minutes after the runners and will follow the same route. The registration fee for the run/ walk is $15.00 in advance and $20.00 on July 31st and includes a ticket to the hog roast. Pre registrations are encouraged but not mandatory. Registration forms are available at the McGregor Marquette Chamber of Commerce, McGregor City Hall and at the McGregor Public Library.

Democrats to meet July 23 The Clayton County Democrats will meet Thursday, July 23 at the Volga City Park. A potluck dinner will begin at 6pm with a meeting following at 7pm. We are expecting presidential and congressional staff to be attending. Over 30,000 youth from the Evangelical Lutheran of America gathered in Detroit last week for the National Youth Gathering. Along with large group worship sessions, the teens and their chaperones participated in several service projects. Seventeen youth and their chaperones, Tracy Decker, Heidi Feuerhelm and Pastor Erika Kielstrup, attended from St. Paul in Monona. Friday, as part of their service project, the group fought bugs and brush to mow grass and clear debris from abandoned yards. The ELCA has a phrase “God’s Work, our Hands” which was surely embodied in these events. The gathering ended Sunday with a worship service led by the National head of the ELCA, Bishop Elizabeth Eaton. She said, “The Lutheran Church wants to be in places where they can speak about and learn about justice and what it means to be God’s people. We also did lessons about racism, classism and sexism and how our values as Christians push us to seek justice.” Monona youth at the gathering are pictured above. The convention was also a way for Detroit improve its image. Many participants said they were pleasantly surprised by how nice the downtown looked.. An Iowa teen said, “I feel awesome that we were helping the community and all of Detroit.” At the ELCA Youth Gathering, there were so many opportunities to give. Some donated hair to benefit children with hair loss, some have made fleece hats to keep the community warm, some contributed to ELCA World Hunger’s Walk for Water like two pictured to the left, and thousands of diapers were donated for families in need. Participants had the chance to take an unforgettable walk designed to simulate the experience of collecting water miles away from home, while raising questions about access to water in the U.S., too. The goal was to raise $500,000 for the water-related projects of ELCA World Hunger, and the gifts will be matched - dollar for dollar – until a grand total of $1 million.

Now, there is great interest in red and whites, and they usually command sale value higher than similar pedigreed black and whites. Also, red colored babies can turn black, as they get older. The trick is to look at the eyelashes to see if they are red.” Andrew Larson Outlook Editor Henkeseen Holsteins, a dairy farm located just outside of Luana and run by Trent and Leslie Henkes, played host to a stop on the National Red & White Convention Tour. This was one of the last stops on the way to the national convention in Decorah. Crowds of dairy enthusiasts, cow connoisseurs, and those just looking to have a good time learning about Holsteins found their way to the Henkes’ farm Tuesday morning to view the facilities and get to know the herd. “We ended up with a real good turnout – 125 people in all. The National Red and White tour group included international guests from Germany and Australia,” said Henkeseen Holstein co-owner Trent Henkes afterward. “The convention was held in Decorah and included a cattle show, cattle sale, banquet and annual meeting. We had two animals consigned in the sale.

Lori Brockway was present to discuss the target area for the 2016 Owner Occupied Housing Rehabilitation Grant application. The state is interested in seeing more concentrated efforts within a community for a larger impact. Council person Halvorson stated that is very difficult in a small community such as McGregor and is not only impractical but also leaves out some qualified applicants. City Administrator Sander had provided a highlighted map of potential areas based on previous applications removing areas located in the flood plain, those who have received funding in the most recent past grant, and those who did not occupy the home. Brockway stated that she would be happy to host an open house to explain submission of the application and to determine interest in the program. Mayor Brooks asked that she coordinate that open house with the City Clerk with a decision on how to proceed with the target area to be made at a later date. An operations report provided an update on status of C Street project /Sewer rehab project update: The retaining wall construction is about half done with approximately two weeks remaining on that work. Street construction and blacktopping, sidewalk and curb and gutter work, and final landscaping in disturbed areas will follow. Weather permitting, substantial completion is expected by mid August. Hamann informed the Council he would be ordering the truck sander so that it would arrive in time for snow. The Council reviewed a draft of the Turner Park 28E between MFL MarMac and the City. The City Attorney had posed several questions that he felt should be addressed. Mayor Brooks asked the Council to send any comments on the draft to the clerk so the draft could be finalized and sent back to the school for their review. An application to become a Tree City was discussed. The Trees Forever coordinator had recommended McGregor consider this to ensure active forestry management to combat the threats of the Emerald Ash Borer and other destructive insect and disease issues facing the urban forest. Mayor Brooks recommended the interest be publicized which would include requesting people interested in being on the tree board submit their names to city hall. Administrator Sander opened discussion regarding the funding shortfalls expected due to the closure of Holiday Shores. Based on estimates of revenue from room rentals from a previous owner, the revenue that the hotel contributes in hotel motel tax was approximately $15,400. The chamber receives 2/3 of the hotel motel tax revenue with the 2014-2015 amount of funding being $20,629. If the same funding formula is used the chamber would experience a shortfall of approximately $10,000. Sander explained that the Council and Chamber should be working on a solution to the funding concerns now during the interim before the next quarterly payment in early October. Use of the entire hotel motel tax receipts and a portion of local option tax are possibilities, but either would leave the city without those dollars that have previously been used for other economic development expenses. Chamber Director Carolyn Gallagher was present and will take the conversation to her board with a joint meeting scheduled in early August. Halvorson stated that some difficult decisions and actions may be necessary to reduce expenses and increase revenues.

Mayor Barb Collins presided with Randee Blietz, Dan Havlicek, Andrew Meyer and John Elledge present. Jason Schubert was absent. Guests Present: Robert Penrod (PeopleService) and Audrey Posten (North Iowa Times) An urgent meeting was called by Mayor Collins at 8:31 A.M. to consider an Addendum to a Purchase and Sale Contract between the City of Monona and the ‘The Overland Group’ dated April 21, 2015. Contract was for purchase of real property located within the Monona Commercial Park for construction of a local Dollar General Store. A timely decision was needed to expedite the process. Approve an Addendum to a Purchase & Sale Contract between City of Monona & The Overland Group for Real Property Located in Monona Commercial Park Lot ‘Addendum 1’ along with attached ‘Map’ labeled Exhibit “A” was received from Paul Stramaglia of The Overland Group for purchase of additional land along US Highway 18. More highway frontage is needed in order to access the commercial lot and still comply with Iowa DOT ingress/egress provisions. Distance from existing juncture of Davis Street and US18 to nearest ingress/egress is required to be 600’. The Addendum identified a total highway lot frontage of approximately 400’ and a lot depth of about 235’. Proposed parcel as shown on Map Exhibit “A” is 2.15+ acres and located west and north of Davis Street Car Wash that also fronts US18. After review of original Purchase and Sale Contract provisions, including map exhibits, a phone call was made to Paul Stramaglia to clarify proposed lot dimensions as shown on Exhibit “A”. Stramaglia confirmed with his associates that the lot configuration as noted is correct. He commented that size of the lot could vary slightly depending upon final survey measurements and that a grading easement might be needed to shape final elevation of the northern perimeter. Stramaglia also acknowledged that there is an existing sanitary sewer manhole structure in the highway ditch slope and a 15” gravity sanitary sewer main located in vicinity of needed ingress/egress area. Along with the additional highway frontage, the Addendum also reflected an increase in the purchase price from $20,000.00 to $40,000.00. It was explained that other than those two (2) items, all other provisions in the original Purchase and Sale Contract would remain unchanged. At conclusion of comments and discussion, it was moved by Elledge, seconded by Havlicek, to approve and authorize Addendum 1 with attached Exhibit “A” as proposed. Roll Carried Unanimously.

The veto came as a surprise to everyone because his office was part of the final negotiations to close down the 2015 legislative session. At that time, he gave no indication that he was opposed to the school funding plan or that he would veto the agreement. According to school leaders, the veto means larger class sizes, fewer teachers, and higher property taxes. One school district said yesterday they will operate in a deficit next year because of the veto. With 6% growth projected in the budget next year and an additional $1 billion in surplus and reserves, we can afford to make a solid investment in our schools next year. The state closed the 2015 fiscal year on June 30th collecting $33 million more. That’s why I’ve joined many of my colleagues in the Iowa House and Senate to request a special session of the Iowa Legislature to make educating Iowa students a top priority again. It’s really the only option left for our schools. If two-thirds of lawmakers agree to come back for a special session, we can overturn the Governor’s veto and put our kids first again. I hope you’ll join the call for a special session along with over 6,000 Iowans and sign this petition at https://www.change.org/p/ members-of-the-iowa-legislaturecall-for-a-special-session-to-restoreschool-funding. Our kids deserve it. Please feel free to contact me with any comments or questions at [email protected]. RUFF calls for special session to override governors veto; make educating Iowa kids a priority again After Governor Branstad vetoed school funding last week, Representative Patti Ruff of McGregor announced today she will sign a petition calling for a special session of the Iowa Legislature to override the Governor’s veto and make educating Iowa students a top priority again. “I strongly disagree with the Governor’s veto and that’s why I’m calling for a special session to make educating our kids a top priority again,” said Ruff. “I’ve been listening to parents, teachers, and our school leaders who have all told me that inadequate school funding will lead to larger class sizes, fewer good teachers, and higher property taxes.” Last week, Governor Branstad vetoed $56 million in k-12 school funding. It was a compromise reached by lawmakers after the majority party in the Iowa House broke the law and refused to set school funding for over a year and a half. “Educating our kids has to be the top priority in Iowa because the future of our economy depends on it. I’m hopeful we can take quick action to avoid cutbacks and end the uncertainty for local schools with a special session,” added Ruff. In order to hold a special session, two-thirds of Iowa lawmakers must sign a petition to return to the Capitol. outlook editor Being raised as a diehard Star Trek fanatic, as well as a fan of science fiction in general, it is no surprise that I’ve become enamored with outer space over the years. Seeing those seemingly infinite points of light sparkling up in the sky at night gets me every time, and you can still sometimes catch me singing “Starlight, star bright” under my breath upon glimpsing the first star to grace the evening sky on a given night. With all this in mind, one can imagine how overwhelmed I became upon seeing the first high quality photographs of my favorite non-earth planet, Pluto, come in, courtesy of New Horizons, a NASA probe that has spent the better part of the last decade making the jaunt over to Pluto. On Tuesday, July 14 the probe reached its destination and finally shed some light on the former planet. Before I go into that, however, a little background on the New Horizons project is in order. Built by the John Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, in conjunction with the Southwest Research Institute, the probe was launched on January 19, 2006 from Cape Canaveral with the goal of observing Pluto, its four moons, as well as a celestial body or two in the Kuiper Belt, a dense band of asteroids and dwarf planets encircling most of the furthest reaches of the solar system. Aside from a quick diversion to Jupiter and perhaps one or two other detours, New Horizons spent much of the nine and a half year voyage in hibernation, waking up only once every year or so for routine system inspections to make sure everything was functioning within acceptable parameters. This past Tuesday, at long last the probe pulled off its historic flyby of the placid planet, coming to within 17,900 miles. The images sent back were glorious, highlighted by a heart-shaped region in the center of the planet, now dubbed Tombaugh Regio, named for Clyde W. Tombaugh, the astronomer credited with Pluto’s discovery in 1930. The surface of the planet was surprisingly crater-free, giving Pluto a rather youthful appearing topography. Other points of interest from the photos include a large dark region, informally nicknamed ‘The Whale’ or ‘Cthulu’, as well a range of icy mountains near the South Pole, which rise to as high as 11,000 feet, or approximately the height of the Rocky Mountains. New Horizons also sent back some impressive photos of Pluto’s largest moon, Charon. It was revealed that Charon has a rather large dark swath of terrain near its northern pole, an area informally known as ‘Mordor’. That’s right. Mordor is now an actual place, although I’m guessing it would take Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee a bit longer to get here than their last trip to Mordor, and one definitely does not simply walk into this Mordor. My takeaway from this event is the knowledge that we just took a great leap toward understanding our solar system and the great big universe around us. When Pluto was first discovered 85 years ago it came to be known as ‘Planet X’ and speculation quickly arose over what sort of dangerous alien life could be brewing there. We obviously know now that Pluto was never home to any sort of alien race bent on planetary conquest, but it is home to some of the most enigmatic topography, complete with hearts, whales, and possibly even the Eye of Sauron. Family Dentistry’s Random Acts of Kindess Continues In honor of Family Dentistry’s yearlong celebration of being in Monona for 30 years, Dr. Mark Fohey presented the Family Aquatic Center (represented by Linda Gullickson, City Clerk) a donation to be used towards the new pergolas at the pool. The pergolas were constructed by the Industrial Technology classes taught by Joe Milewsky at MFLMarMac High School this past spring and have been in place all summer for patrons of the pool to utilize. Staff members went to help a Monona resident, Leila Kilcher, with her yard work of cleaning out flower beds, trimming trees and bushes and hauling the debris away.
