Manager
The Sibley East School
Board approved a resolution
to accept a mediated settlement agreement relating to
litigation in the ongoing
M.K.M vs. Kevin Jones and
Independent School District
(ISD) # 2310 (Sibley East) at
its regular monthly board
meeting on Monday night,
June 17.
Jones was the transportation director for Sibley East
until December 2008.
The total payout amount of
the settlement is $309,553.02,
according to the court settlement documents.
The settlement releases the
district from any liability in
the matter.
According to the settlement
agreement, Sibley East will
be liable for $50,000 in cash,
which will be taken out of the
general fund.
EMCASCO, an insurance
company for the district will
pay $25,000 and Continental
Western Insurance Company,
the insurance company used
by the district until July 31,
2008, will pay up to
$104,553.02.
Periodic payments will be
distributed to the plaintiffs in
the form of annuity on March
17, 2019, and March 17,
2027, in the amount of
$30,000 each and a $70,000
lump sum payment on March
17, 2047.
The present value of the
annuity is $70,446.98 which
will be funded by Continental
Western Insurance Company.
Each party is responsible
for their respective legal fees.
The final bill has not been
received from Knutson,
Flynn & Deans, P. A. the law
firm retained by the board to
protect its interest in this matter. As of the date of the last
bill, May 20, 2013, the district has paid $40,115.95 to
K n u t s o n .
In addition to the annual
stipend of $3,000, the district,
to date, has paid $5,008 to
Nerud for fees associated directly to this matter.
The board approved the
hiring of Knutson, Flynn &
Deans, P. A. at the May 2012
meeting under the urging of
Nerud.
Jones, who was terminated
as the Sibley East transportation director in late December
of 2008, was charged with
five counts of first degree
criminal sexual conduct in
Sibley County District Court
in October 2008.
The charges were in connection with a then alleged
sexual relationship between
Jones and a then 15-year-old
female student.
He was also charged with
one felony count of harassment -- violation of a restraining order/falsely impersonating another person in
Sibley County District Court
in March 2009.
Jones pleaded guilty to one
count of first degree criminal
sexual conduct in Sibley
County District Court in
April 2009. In addition, he
also pleaded guilty to an
amended
misdemeanor
charge of violation of an
order for protection at that
time. Other charges were dismissed.
He was sentenced to serve
144 months (12 years) in
state prison.
Appeal attempts by Jones
have been denied.

The Arlington City Council, during its regular meeting
on Monday night, June 17,
unanimously approved a motion to suspend Police Chief
Bruce Rovinsky for one day
without pay.
The City Council took the
action after Rovinsky was
found in contempt of court by
the Honorable Thomas McCarthy in Sibley County District Court on Thursday
morning, June 6.
Rovinsky had received a
subpoena on Friday, May 31
to testify in a civil matter in
district court on Monday,
June 3.
Rovinsky failed to appear
in district court on Monday,
June 3 and Judge McCarthy,
in turn, summoned Rovinsky
to appear in district court on
Thursday, June 6.
During that court appearance on Thursday, June 6,
Rovinsky apologized to the
court for his failure to appear
and took full responsibility
for the matter.
Rovinsky said he simply
forgot about the court appearance on Monday, June 3.
When asked why he did not
respond to calls to contact
him that day, Rovinsky responded that he had worked
the late shift on Sunday night,
June 2 and turned off his cell
phone after he went home to
sleep. Rovinsky told Judge
McCarthy that it would never
happen again.
Safe Routes
To School
The City Council unanimously approved a motion to
approve the Safe Routes To
School project plans/specifications and authorize the advertisement for bids.
The City Council is scheduled to open bids on Thursday, July 11, according to
City Engineer Jason Femrite.
Femrite suggested that the
City Council could hold an
open house for adjacent property owners sometime between Monday, July 15 and
Friday, July 19. He said this
is not a requirement, but a
good move to keep adjacent
property owners updated on
the project.
Femrite said the City
Council is scheduled to
award the bid during its regular meeting on Monday night,
Aug. 5.
He added that the 45-day
construction project is scheduled to start on Monday, Aug.
12.
Grant
The City of Arlington, with
Sibley County as a sponsor
and the Sibley East Public
Schools and St. Paul’s
Lutheran School as cooperative partners, received a federal $199,980 Safe Routes To
School grant during the late
summer of 2011.
Arlington, at that time, was
one of 16 Minnesota projects
funded by the federal program and announced by the
Minnesota Department of
Transportation (Mn/DOT).
Of the 16 projects, 12 are
in Greater Minnesota and the
rest are in the Twin Cities
metropolitan area. All of the
grants will be used to improve or build trails and sidewalks for walking and biking.
The total was $3.8 million.
“These projects will make
walking and biking to school
easier for children and more
acceptable to their parents,”
Mn/DOT Commissioner Tom
Sorel said at the time the
grants were announced. “The
grants will mean safety improvements in routes to
school so students will be
more inclined to walk to
school. And walking to
school is another way to increase exercise for healthier
kids.”
Overall, there were 82 applications representing $83
million in projects.
Local Project
The largest portion of the
project will be along both
sides of Second Avenue
Northwest where sidewalks
will be improved or added to
create continuous sidewalk
from Adams Street to Highway 5. The project will also
tie into the Prairie Line Trail
segment, which is scheduled
for 2014. That portion will
include St. Paul’s Lutheran
School.
Three alternate segments to
the project, which lead from
the Sibley East athletic complex, were not funded. One or
more of these alternate segments could be completed depending on the outcome of
the overall bid.
The project has to be completed by the end of 2013.
Sealcoating
approve the 2013 sealcoating
plan and advertise for bids.
The City Council made the
move after a presentation
from Femrite and Street Superintendent Jason Lovaas.
The City Council, according to Femrite, has set aside
$100,000 in its budget for
sealcoating. He added that the
city has a great sealcoating
program and it is best to sealcoat streets every five to
seven years.
Femrite and Lovaas will
look at past projects and determine the areas for 2013.
The City Council, according to Femrite, is scheduled
to open bids on Thursday,
July 11 and award bids on
Monday, July 15.
The project, he added, will
be completed by Saturday,
Aug. 31.
Bids & Repairs
authorize the advertisement
of sealed bids for the sale of
the 1998 4W Bravada.
In another move, the City
Council unanimously approved a motion to authorize
up to $11,000 for repairs to
the street sweeper.
The move was referred to
as a short-term fix.
The City Council, in another matter, unanimously approved a motion to place up
to four “Slow Children Playing” signs along the east and
west ends of Henderson
Road.
The City Council will hold
its next regular meeting at
6:30 p.m. Monday, July 1.
The Arlington City Office
will be closed on Thursday,
July 4 due to the Independence Day holiday, according
to City Administrator Liza
Donabauer.
Green Isle, Hamburg, Norwood
to host 2017 state tournament
The Minnesota State Amateur Baseball Board of Directors, during a meeting in St.
Cloud on Saturday, June 15,
awarded bids to host the state
tournament in 2016, 2017 and
2018.
The threesome of Green
Isle, Hamburg and Norwood
was awarded the state tournament in 2017.
“We would like to thank
the Hamburg and Norwood
baseball associations for
inviting Green Isle to be a
part of the bid,” said Green
Isle Irish President Joe
Kreger. “Since every team in
our area has a partner to bid
with, we had previously been
left out in the cold. Our organization is very honored
and excited to have a chance
to host this great event. Now
years of planning and hoping
can be brought to reality. Let
the work begin!”
Norwood and Hamburg co-
hosted the state tournament in
2007. Green Isle, due to
heavy rains, was the emergency site that year and hosted nine games in the state
tournament.
Dassel, Hutchinson and
Litchfield were chosen for
the state tournament in 2016.
Shakopee and New Prague
were awarded the state tournament in 2018.
Chanhassen and Chaska
also submitted a bid to cohost a state tournament, but
were not chosen.

Sibley County looks to put price
tag on cost of affordable care
By Dave Pedersen
Editor
In either the best or worst
case scenario, the Affordable
Care Act (ACA) will have a
substantial cost impact on
Sibley County, reported
County Administrator Matt
Jaunich at the Tuesday, June
11 meeting of commissioners.
As the county enters into
the planning season on the
2014 budget, one item of
concern expressed by the
commissioners surrounds the
potential cost impact to the
county when most of the provisions of the health care law
begin Jan. 1, 2014.
The law addressed several
different factors regarding
healthcare including the creation of health insurance exchanges, individual mandates
to purchase insurance, enhanced federal match for
health care systems modernization and many other factors.
Jaunich said the cost estimate is based on information
he could acquire. Passed at
the federal level, administration of the 2,800 page law
will be carried out at the
county level.
“We realize we need to hire
two additional staff members
in public health/human services to account for the increased work load,” said Jaunich about an estimated addition of 500 clients. “The cost
to the county would be about
$38,715 after at least 50 percent is covered by federal
matching dollars. We will
start to incur costs in October,
which are not budgeted for.”
The other factor involves
eligibility for employee
health insurance. Since the
county is an employer with
50 or more full-time workers,
it must offer health coverage
to all employees working
more than 30 hours per week.
Failure to do this may result
in an annual penalty of
$2,000 per full-time employee.
Also beginning Jan. 1 is the
requirement that large employers like the county pro-
vide affordable health coverage from a premium contribution standpoint. The penalty is $3,000 per full-time employee who receives a government premium subsidy.
Jaunich said 22 Sibley
County employees are potentially affected by the 30-hour
per week mandate under the
ACA that are currently not
offered county health insurance.
“The worst case scenario
has every employee taking
county insurance at the family level,” said Jaunich. “In
this case, county health insurance costs are expected to increase by over $200,000 a
year. This number could be
lower assuming not all eligible employees take the family
coverage or any insurance at
all.”
In his best case scenario,
Jaunich estimated the librarians, attorneys and a building
maintenance worker from his
calculation for various reasons. If the remaining 11 eligible employees take county
insurance
at
the
individual/single level, the
estimated cost increase is
more than $76,000 a year.
“When you include the
costs of hiring additional employees and the likely increase of employees to the
county’s health insurance
plan, we are looking at a
worst case scenario costing
the county somewhere in the
area of $239,000,” said Jaunich in his report’s conclusion. “Our best case scenario
shows county costs in the
area of $115,000. Realistically speaking, I think the ACA
will likely cost the county in
the range of $100,000 to
$120,000.”
The best case situation involves some employees deciding to opt out and not receive insurance, which may
be covered by a spouse. Jaunich said the county will look
at a county health insurance

Amateur radio operators will hold field day
at Memorial Park in Arlington this weekend
Amateur radio operators
will operate under the auspices of emergency conditions at Memorial Park in Arlington from 1 p.m. Saturday,
June 22 through 1 p.m. Sunday, June 23, according to
Don Burgess.
This is the National Field
Day for amateur radio people
as they practice emergency
communications throughout
the country and the world.
Ham radio will be setting up
radio stations in unusual locations and making contact
with others as a display of
their emergency communications capabilities.
“In this past year alone,
ham radio operators have
made headlines with their
work in the wildfires, floods,
storms, tornadoes and other
crises around the country,”
said Burgess, who is
SMARTS Club President and
State Assistant Emergency
Coordinator for Amateur
Radio Emergency Services.
“The hams provide emergency communications for
many government and civic
organizations in disasters. In
addition, they provide supplemental communications when
normal systems are rendered
inoperable or overloaded.”
Hams have been called,
“The people behind the curtain that made the heroes look
good.” Like most communities and towns in Sibley and
Carver counties, they don’t
expect a major emergency,
but they happen, and losing
communications quickly can
turn an emergency into a real
disaster, according to
Burgess.
Local and area dignitaries
have been invited to attend
the event in Arlington.
“Any and all residents are
encouraged to stop and drop
by and learn more about amateur radio and how we serve
our communities in time of
need,” said Burgess.
He added, “This year ’s
event should be fun and is
also a validation to the hundreds of amateur radio volunteers who have spent thousands of hours providing
emergency communications,
public service work and other
benefits throughout our community and region.”
People who would like
more information are encouraged to contact Don Burgess

Town & Country Days
are poorly attended
Our View: Arli-Dazzle should
become the town celebration
The leadership of the Arlington Area Chamber of Commerce is
trying hard to put its best spin on the recent Town & Country Days
celebration. In an initial e-mail early this week, the Chamber leadership reported that the town celebration “went very well” and was a
“success.”
It would be wonderful if that were the case, but that report could
not be further from the truth. The Breakfast on the Farm event,
Move Strong Walk/Run and The Newlywed Game were the most
popular events and well attended. However, attendance at the other
events was rather poor.
Only 30-plus people attended the band last Friday night. The kickball tournament was cancelled on Saturday morning. The puppet
show drew only 15 kids on Saturday afternoon. The inflatable
bouncers were something new, but gained little attention from
roughly 50 youngsters on the same afternoon. The rain certainly did
not help matters on Saturday afternoon. The band was poorly attended on Saturday night and the crowd was considerably down on Sunday afternoon. The bean bag tournament was also cancelled late that
same afternoon. It is difficult to attach a word like success to these
results.
The simple truth is Arlington, other than its 150th anniversary a
few years back, has struggled with its summer celebration on Main
Street and at Four Seasons Park during the past decade.
A simple solution that the Chamber should seriously consider is to
discontinue the summer celebration and designate the Arli-Dazzle as
the town celebration. The Chamber could place additional energies
and resources into this already successful winter celebration where
the variety of activities draw large crowds of people from all over
the area.
The coronation could be rolled into the winter celebration while a
“Dashing Through The Snow” walk/run could be added to the festivities as well. A much smaller and more affordable raffle could also
be part of the winter celebration. The popular Breakfast on the Farm
could remain as a stand alone event in June. The ideas are endless.

Bailouts, boondoggles and backroom deals
By Jonathan Blake
Freedom Foundation of MN
The dust is finally settling on the
2013 legislative session. Though the
session adjourned almost a month
ago, Minnesotans are just now getting a clearer view of what oneparty rule has wrought. And the
view is not pretty.
Capitol observers will recall the
chaos and disorder in the final days
of session, as legislators scrambled
to finalize the long-delayed budget
and tax bills. Ultimately, the legislature would finish its work just a few
minutes before the deadline of midnight on May 20, but only by limiting debate and forcing rushed votes
on several huge conference committee reports, allowing no time for
scrutiny by the public, news media,
or legislative minorities. It turns out
that was by design.
As Nancy Pelosi would say, the
legislature had to pass the bills to
find out what’s in them. And what
the bills have are bailouts, boondoggles, and (in keeping with the theme
of the 2013 session) massive tax
hikes.
In short, the final days of the 2013
session were effectively a session
unto itself; call it the Secret Session,
in which bad policy that could not
withstand public scrutiny was quietly and surreptitiously inserted into
legislation. Among the many costly
provisions that legislators snuck into
bills in the dead of night are several
that received virtually no legislative
debate all year:
Gift tax and estate tax changes –
As if Minnesota wasn’t already
enough of a tax outlier, Governor
Dayton and the legislature made
Minnesota just the second state in
the nation to institute a gift tax. The
gift tax will be applied at a 10 percent flat rate after a $100,000 lifetime credit against the tax. In addition, gifts made within three years of
a person’s death can be taxable
under the state’s revamped estate
tax. Not only did Dayton and the
legislature raise taxes on the dead,
they made it retroactive.
Warehousing and storage tax – At
the end of session, lawmakers revived portions of the Governor’s
universally panned sales tax plan,
applying the sales tax to a number of
targeted business services, including
the sale of telecommunications
equipment. But the most controversy has been generated by the state’s
new warehousing tax. In the words
of one Star Tribune columnist, "the
tax on warehouse firms and a few
other industries apparently passed
while their lobbyists on guard at the
Capitol that day were looking the
other way". Well, the tax now has
the undivided attention of logistics
firms and others, and some of them
are already considering leaving the
state. Even many tax-happy legislators were skittish about imposing the
tax too quickly, choosing to delay it
until April 2014.
New $89.5 million office building
for senate offices – A new "state-ofthe-art" office building for senators
was one of the many surprise provisions slipped into the tax bill in the
waning hours of the session. In fact,
according to the Minneapolis/St.
Paul Business Journal, "the only
money that’s been approved is $3
million for designs, but even that escaped the notice of many…part of a
379-page tax bill and was inserted
with little discussion". By utilizing a
lease-purchase arrangement, legislative leaders effectively hid the cost
of this project. The new senate office building will undoubtedly have
some of the nicest smoke-filled back
rooms that taxpayer money can buy.
$33 million bailout for Minneapolis library – And finally, yet another
"last-minute addition to the state tax
bill": a $33 million bailout for the
downtown Minneapolis library.
Why? According to the Star Tribune, "The addition to the tax bill
was a tit-for-tat of sorts. It came
after the state agreed to forgive
loans on the Xcel Energy Center, located in St. Paul." In other words,
Minneapolis saw St. Paul get a
bailout, then went to the legislature
and said "me too!"
The Secret Session would be bad
enough on its own, but it comes on
top of the personal income tax hike
that gives Minnesota the second
highest rate (for comparable income
levels) in the nation; a regressive
cigarette tax hike of $1.60 per pack
that more than doubles the current
tax; bailouts for St. Paul and Duluth
teachers’ pension funds; permanent
state spending increases on K-12 education and LGA (among other
areas) without offering any substantive reforms in return.
It was an ugly end to a disastrous
session, and what Minnesotans saw
(or didn’t see) was the antithesis of
open and transparent government.
Worst of all, as the dust continues to
settle, taxpayers may learn of even
more surprises.
Congress needs to remember how to make policy
By Lee H. Hamilton
I’ve noticed a recurring question
as I talk to people about Congress.
What can be done, they wonder, to
get Congress back on track? Is our
national legislature capable of serious policy making? At a time when
polls say that jobs and the economy
are Americans’ chief concern, Congress has not passed a single piece
of economic legislation. Instead, it’s
focused on investigations. It’s an institution with very little to show for
its efforts.
There’s a reason for this. Few legislators know how to make it work
any more — respect the legislative
process and know it intimately, have
mastered the substantive and procedural details, and have the political
savvy and skill to move a bill to enactment.
How can Congress improve? A
few procedural fixes might help, but
the real answer is actually pretty
simple: change the way members of
Congress work.
First, they need to put in more

time legislating on the major challenges facing the country. Only
twice this year has Congress been in
session for four weeks straight. Its
members spend too much of each
week at home campaigning and
meeting with constituents, and don’t
use their limited time in Washington
well: much of it goes to meeting
lobbyists, legislating on minor if not
trivial matters, making the rounds of
receptions, and raising funds.
Members have few occasions to
get to know one another except in
the confrontational settings of committee rooms and the floor of their
chamber, and as a result they don’t
know how to work together. Just as
dispiriting, they know even less
about what we sent them there to do:
crafting and enacting legislation. It
takes skill and perseverance to create meaningful policies that forge
common ground among competing
interests and ideologies. The timeconsuming, difficult work of legislating on complex issues is becoming a lost art.

To begin restoring it, members
have to remember that they are a
separate, co-equal branch of government. They’ve allowed Congress to
become a reactive body. It takes its
cues from the president — either in
deference to him or in opposition to
him, but always with reference to
him. Capitol Hill should be an engine of creative policy-making and
inquiry, not the place that dynamic
lawmaking withers.
This can’t happen, however, if
members of Congress continue putting politics ahead of policy making.
Many of the bills passed today in
one chamber or the other are not
even taken up by the other body.
They are posturing, not legislating.
I’m not naive. Politics is always
going to be important, but it ought
not dominate lawmakers’ actions.
They can be politicians at election
time, but once they reach Capitol
Hill our Constitution expects them

June is Men’s Health Month
By Dawn Plested
Sibley Medical Center
Sibley Medical Center is
committed to providing the
most advanced and comprehensive healthcare services to
all of our community. We believe that it is important to
treat each person as an individual, and as an individual
we recognize that men and
women have different healthcare needs. Each June, we
join the nation in recognizing
Men’s Health throughout the
month.
The purpose of Men’s
Health Month is to heighten
the awareness of preventable
health problems and encourage early detection and treatment of disease among men
and boys. This month gives
health care providers, public
policy makers, the media, and
individuals an opportunity to
encourage men and boys to
seek regular medical advice
and early treatment for disease and injury. The response
has been overwhelming with
thousands of awareness activities in the USA and around
the globe.
While the life-expectancy
gap between men and women
has decreased, it's no secret
that men still need to pay
more attention to their bodies.
Men have greater risk factors
than women; many of these
factors are controllable. For
example, men tend to smoke
and drink more than women.
They don't seek medical help
as often as women. There are
also health conditions that
only affect men and many of
the major health risks that
men have can be prevented
and treated with early diagnosis. Screening tests can find
diseases early, when they are
easier to treat. It's important
to have regular checkups and
screenings.
Make healthy lifestyle
choices, such as eating a
healthy diet and including
physical activity in your daily
routine. It's also important to
manage risky behavior, such
as drinking too much and engaging in casual sex. Of
course, common-sense precautions — such as using
safety ladders and wearing a
seat belt — count, too.
As you get older, your
health concerns are likely to
change. Sibley Medical Center is committed to providing
the resources and answers
from birth to end of life. Sibley Medical Center has the
tools you need to lead a better, healthier, longer life. For

SCHS to hold meeting June 25
Members and guests of the
Sibley County Historical Society traveled to New Auburn
for their May meeting, according to Curator Sharon
Haggenmiller.
The group met at the City
Hall for a presentation on the
history of New Auburn.
Kathy Ringo and others are
trying to establish a New
Auburn Historical Society.
They have been researching
New Auburn history and collecting historic items. These
items need a home and the
committee is currently
searching for a space to store
and display these items and to
make them available for visitors to view upon their arrival
to the city.
On Aug. 4, 1854, New
Auburn was registered as a
city, so named because many
of the residents came from
Auburn, New York. There
was another site with a gener-
al store in the present site of
the High Island Cemetery, but
failure to make improvements, according to the law,
caused its demise and New
Auburn was incorporated in
1856. The town was built
near the lake called High Island pertaining to the high island in the lake fully visible
from the edge of town. Native Americans would camp
in the area between this lake
and Shilling Lake, to the
north, during October wild
rice harvests. The town also
became a stagecoach stop between Henderson and Glencoe. These facts were perhaps unknown to many, but
Kathy and her crew are determined to make the history
come alive in New Auburn.
The Sibley County Historical Society will hold its next
meeting at the museum in
Henderson at 7 p.m. Tuesday,
June 25. The topic will be
“Noack Locker Plant and
Hatchery,” a former Arlington business since 1908. A
presentation will be given by
Michael Noack.
Everyone is welcome to attend.
The search is still on for information about Sibley County Country Schools, especially in the mid-western part of
the county. Needed are photos, memorabilia, stories of
school days, etc. With 80
school districts, “the sooner
we can gather the information, the sooner we can get a
book ready to print,” according to Haggenmiller. “With
all our research, we want to
do a fantastic job of putting
all the facts together, but we
need the help of the general
public.”
Interested people who have
any information are encouraged to call 507-248-3434.
Music Under The Stars is June 23
Story Hour & Parade may return in
August according to Marie Kreft
Marie Kreft will be unable

new members. Interested
people are encouraged to
attend the next quarterly
meeting at the Sibley County Service Center at 7 p.m.
Thursday, Sept. 5 or contact
Catherine Lorenz at 320864-3498.
Two special guest artists
will headline Peace Lutheran
Church’s annual Music
Under The Stars event which
is scheduled for 7 p.m. Sunday, June 23.
The evening of Christian
and patriotic music will
showcase local talent and
also include two special
guests. Christina Smith, an
outstanding singer accomplished in opera, Broadway
theatre and gospel, will be
here to share her gifts. Dave
Horn, a Christian recording
artist, will also perform some
of his original music.
Director Janice Lehmkuhl
said the evening promises to
have something for everyone.
“It’s always so much fun to
perform with other musicians
in the area,” said Lehmkuhl.
“We don’t always see one another a lot during the rest of
the year, but this event gives
us a chance to bond in musicmaking which is very joyful.
And having Dave and Christina with us will make this an
extra special night.
There will be a free will offering.

The 83-year-old town hall of
Arlington Township has been
moved from its location at the
intersection of Henderson Road
and the railroad tracks. It is now
located about a hundred yards to
the southeast on Henderson
Road, across from the migrant
labor camp. The township exchanged property with Big
Stone Canning Company in
order to acquire the new site. At
the old location there was a conflict of parking and traffic when
a township election was held
while the factory was running.
Peas will be canned for the
first time at the Big Stone Canning factory here starting next
week. The pea run is expected to
last until August 1st, according
to Wayne Feil, canning company vice president. A building has
been erected for the processing
of peas. It is located across the
track between the corn processing building and the shop building.
Movies showing at the Lido
Theatre in Arlington during the
week included “Friebee and the
Bean” starring James Caan,
Alan Arkin and Valerie Harper
and “Harry and Tonto” starring

Prior to the Irish game at

to hit a home run for his dad

Lucas hit just that in the top

the bases, was greeted by
Zach at home plate and received a standing ovation!

DNR advises public to let wildlife remain wild
This is the time of year
when young animals are scampering about lawns, roadsides
and just about everywhere else
in Minnesota, according to the
Department of Natural Resources (DNR).
Birds are falling out of their
nests and many types of wild
baby animals can be mistaken
as abandoned or lost. In reality, the mother is probably not
too far away and will soon return.
People should always leave
wild baby animals alone unless it can be verified that the
mother is dead or the animal is
seriously injured, said Carrol
Henderson, DNR nongame

Country Days celebration.
fine because they will be fed
by their parents on the ground.
Only very young birds without
feathers should be picked up
and returned to the nest, Henderson said. People should not
worry about getting human
scent on young birds when
placing them back in the nest
because birds have a poor
sense of smell.
Henderson also said people
should contain their dogs and
keep cats indoors during this
time of year. Curious pets can
disturb or harm young and
nesting animals, adding to fatalities.
“Many people do not know
what to do when they find an
injured or orphaned animal,”
Henderson said. “The process
is very difficult and intense.
Rehabbing wildlife can be difficult and complex. Many
hand-raised animals are not
good candidates for release
back into the wild.”
The public should never attempt to raise wild birds or animals themselves, Henderson
said. It is against the law for
anyone to keep wild animals
without proper training and
DNR licensing. In captivity,
most wild animals are very
fragile, traumatize easily and
have complex nutritional
needs. They can die suddenly.

eligibility policy.
Currently, the county does
not allow full-time eligible
employees to opt out of the
insurance policy.
Jaunich asked, “Are we
going to extend this rule to
those working less than 40
hours, but more than 30?” The
administrator suggested he
take a poll of potential employees that will be added to
the county’s health insurance
plan to see if they would take
it, or at what level, since it
would help in the budgeting.
County Commissioner Bill
Pinske said the cost increase
could be more than the total
increase in county program
aid it will be getting from the
state. “I think we will have to
change our insurance bylaws,”
said Pinske.
County Commissioner Jim
Swanson noted that he can’t
opt out of the county insurance policy even though he
does not need it. Jaunich said
under the ACA an employee
can opt out if they prove they
have other insurance.
County Commissioner
Harold Pettis wondered if employees working 30 hours can
go to full-time instead of hiring two new full-time employees. Jaunich said it is possible, but the work is specific
and may not match the skills
of other employees.
Pinske noted the county in-
surance program is a joint
venture with McLeod County
and each county would have
to vote on any changes in policy. He said since the two
boards will be meeting July
11, the issue can be brought
up at that time.
Human Resource Director
Roseann Nagel said, “The
whole insurance industry is
being turned upside down
nowadays.”

to be policy makers and legislators. So do ordinary Americans. The partisan maneuvering, the compulsion to send a
message rather than legislate,
and the lack of solid accomplishment have driven Americans’ disdain for Congress to
record highs.
If lawmakers want to reverse this, they need to reorder their priorities. They’ll
rein in their partisan instincts.
They’ll spend less time asking for money — often from
the people affected by the
bills they’re voting on — and
more on building friendships
and relationships among colleagues, especially of the opposite party, who can help
them enact legislation.
They’ll ignore trivial bills that
give the appearance of action
but accomplish little, and
learn how to do rigorous
oversight, with truth-seeking
hearings that are fair and balanced.
They’ll master the legislative process, rather than dele-
gating bill-writing and even
strategy to staff. They’ll send
their polite regrets to the invitations that pour in for receptions, dinners, media appearances, and all the other distractions that keep a member
of Congress busy, and bear
down on the work their constituents sent them to pursue:
crafting legislation, debating
bills, deliberating with their
colleagues, and reaching consensus on the serious problems confronting the country.
Here’s the most important
part: they don’t need legislation or constitutional amendments or procedural fixes or
even years of seniority to
start. They just need to go to
work and make the Congress
and our representative democracy effective at serving the
best interests of the country.

Highway 5 Project
Construction crews were busy working on Highway 5
in Arlington on Thursday, June 13 and Friday, June
14. The project from Gaylord to Sheila Drive in Arlington is expected to be completed in early July. Central
Specialities, Inc., Alexandria, is the contractor on the
$2,593,892 project. Motorists can expect a smoother
ride on Highway 5 and pedestrians in Arlington will
have ADA compliant sidewalks. A second project on
Highway 5 from Arlington to Green Isle is scheduled
to begin in July.
Volunteers picking up trash along
highways save state $6 million
Volunteers helping with the
Adopt A Highway program
pick up 26,000 tons of litter
per year, saving the state an
estimated $6 million annually, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation.
The Adopt A Highway program currently is staffed by
more than 49,000 volunteers
from the public who are helping to clean up 11,000 miles
of Minnesota’s highways.
“They volunteer because
they want to keep Minnesota
highways beautiful and they
take pride in what they do,”
said Ernest Lloyd, state
Adopt A Highway program
administrator. “Because of
their contributions, our crews
can spend more time on highway improvement and safety
projects.”
Even with these great efforts, MnDOT is looking for
more volunteers to help with
this public service campaign,
Lloyd said.
To become part of the program, the volunteer groups
agree to:
• Adopt a highway for a
minimum of two years
• Select a segment of highway approximately two miles
in length
• Pick up litter on both
sides of the highway
• Pick up litter as often as
needed from spring through
fall, usually two to three
times
MnDOT provides safety
vests for each volunteer and
trash bags for cleanup events.
The high-visibility color and
reflective tape help make litter crews more visible to
passing motorists.
MnDOT crews pick up the
filled bags and large, heavy
or hazardous items from the
roadside after the group completes its cleanup. State workers, not volunteers, are responsible for litter pickup
along the interstate.
Interested people who
would like to adopt a highway can visit www.dot.state.mn.us/adopt/contacts.html.

Sibley FSA
The excessive rainfall has
been a point of frustration for
many as you try to get your
crops planted this spring. In
Sibley County, the final planting date for corn was May 31
and the final planting date for
soybeans was June 10.
Prevented planting occurs
when a crop cannot be planted
during the established planting
period because of a natural
disaster. Prevented planting
reports (CCC-576) must be
filed with FSA within 15 calendar days after the final
planting date to be considered
timely filed. Final planting
dates will vary by crop and
county. Once a CCC-576 has
been submitted, it cannot be
withdrawn or revised, so come
prepared with the planting date
and the actual number of acres
affected. Producers who latefile may be assessed a fee and
a field inspection may be required. Late-filed CCC-576
reports are possible on one
condition; the prevented planted acreage is timely reported
to RMA. Please check with
your crop insurance agent for
specific date information regarding RMA timely filed requirements.
Final Planting Dates/Deadline to file Prevented Planting
with FSA:
Corn - May 31/June 17
Soybeans - June 10/June 25

– July 5/July 22
(Please contact our office
for information regarding

Please Note: Minnesota has
requested and received an extension of the prevented planting filing deadline. The 2013
prevented planting filing deadline is extended from the 15
calendar days after the final
planting date to July 15, 2013.
If you have prevented planted
acres in another state, please
contact your FSA office in that
state to determine whether or
not they have received an extension of this deadline as
well.
Producers are also reminded
if they have failed acreage (a
crop was planted and subsequently fails) they should report the affected acres on a Report of Acreage (FSA-578) and
file a Failed Acreage report
(CCC-576) at the Sibley County FSA Office before the crop
is destroyed. As with prevented planting, once a CCC-576
has been submitted, it cannot
be withdrawn or revised, so
come prepared with the planting date and the actual number
of acres affected. This will
allow FSA to get an accurate
report of how many failed
acres are in each county. This
documentation will also help
in determining the need for a
disaster designation.

Diocese of New Ulm releases statement
The Catholic Diocese of
New Ulm has been named in
a lawsuit alleging sexual
abuse of a minor against Father Francis Markey, a deceased priest of the Diocese
of Clogher, Ireland, according to a news release from the
Diocese of New Ulm.
The lawsuit, filed June 17
in the Fifth Judicial District
Court for the State of Minnesota, names the Diocese of
New Ulm as the defendant.
In December of 1981, Father Markey came to Willmar, located in the Diocese of
New Ulm. He had applied for
and was accepted to participate in a Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) program at
Willmar State Hospital.
While participating in that
program, he did some temporary parish work in the diocese.
For about three months in
the spring of 1982, Father
Markey served at the Church
of St. Andrew in Granite
Falls, following the death of
the church’s pastor and before the new pastor began his
assignment there. Father Markey left the Diocese of New
Ulm in June of 1982. Since
that time, Father Markey did
not live in or serve the diocese in any capacity. Father
Markey died in 2012.
In January of 2011, the
Diocese of New Ulm was
named in a lawsuit alleging
sexual abuse of a minor by
Father Markey.
The Diocese of New Ulm
deeply regrets the long-lasting and devastating effects of
sexual misconduct on the part
of clergy. Such misconduct
requires positive action on
our part and we have been
strengthening our systems
and procedures in order to address this grave issue by following the U.S. bishops’
“Charter for the Protection of
Children and Young People,”
established in June 2002, according to the news release.
The Diocese of New Ulm
has been diligent in its efforts
to establish a safe environment program which educates
clergy, teachers, parents and
students, and helps them
identify and prevent sexual
misconduct. We are committed to offer help and healing
to anyone who has been a
victim of sexual misconduct
and to prevent this terrible
crime in the diocese, according to the news release. Anyone who has suffered sexual
abuse, exploitation or harassment by a priest, deacon, pastor or pastoral administrator
of the Diocese of New Ulm is
asked to report such misconduct to the Victim Assistance
Coordinator or the Bishop’s
Delegate in Matters Pertaining to Sexual Misconduct,

Harriet Traxler’s new book brings
1891 Faxon slaying back to life
Harriet Traxler, author of
“The Barns of Sibley County,” has published another
book called “A Murder In
Faxon, according to an article
in the Belle Plaine Herald.
The book is about Harriet’s
great uncle, Michael Collins,
who was murdered in 1891
on the farm where Harriet
lived as a child. It wasn’t
until she was in her teens that
she found out about it from
an old Henderson newspaper
clipping she found in an old
recipe book.
Her books are sold at the
Sibley County Historical Society with proceeds going to
the museum.
