By Kurt Menk Editor Members of the Arlington and Gaylord police commit- tees, during a meeting in Gaylord on Thursday evening, May 4, listened to pros, cons and suggestions from two guest speakers on a possible consolidated police department in the future. Circle Pines Mayor David Bartholomay and Centennial Lakes Police Chief Jim Coan made the presentation. The Centennial Lakes Po- lice Department is a consoli- dation between the cities of Circle Pines, Lexington and Centerville. The police de- partment between Circle Pines and Lexington started about 35 years ago. Center- ville joined around 1995, on a contract basis and later en- tered the joint powers agree- ment. “We are not here to tell you want to do,” said Bartholo- may. “We have no stake in this. We just want to provide our experience and help you out.” Pros Bartholomay said one pro for a consolidated police de- partment is that each city has a seat at the table. He said a consolidation could also be a money saver for each city with a shared police chief, office staff and in-house detective. Another pro is shared re- sources, Bartholomay said. In addition, he said it is easier to train and recruit with a larger police department. Futhermore, there would be additional coverage and serv- ices. Cons Batholomay said one con for a consolidated police de- partment is “one town feels like they are getting the short end of the stick during events.” Another con is the loss of identity, he said. Bartholomay said another concern is if the mayors and city councils are not on the same page. “Collaboration is just hard,” said Bartholomay. Suggestions Bartholomay said one key to a successful police depart- ment consolidation is that the mayors and city councils need to be on the same page. He also said there needs to be regular good communica- tion. Bartholomay suggested that the consolidation agree- ment needs to be difficult for one city to leave and requires some sort of mediation. He added that is “nice” if the ordinances in both com- munities are similar or com- patible as possible. Bartholomay suggested that a consolidated police de- partment could have both a governing board and an oper- ations board. The governing board could include a mayor and two city council members from each town. The operations board could consist of the city administra- tor from each community. The police chief would meet and work with both boards. The chairperson for each board would rotate each year, he said. “It comes down to the will of the cities,” said Coan. “If you want it, you can make it happen.” The Arlington and Gaylord police committees held their next meeting in Gaylord on Wednesday, May 10. The fol- lowing meeting will be held in Arlington at 7 p.m. Wednesday, May 24. Pros, cons and suggestions are presented to police committees By Amy Newsom Correspondent The Sibley County Board, during its regular meeting on Tuesday morning, May 9, voted 4-1 and approved a motion to extend the CSAH 12 project by 1.4 miles to in- clude the CSAH 12 hill. The County Board voted for option two, a $520,000 full depth reclamation on the hill which should last 20 years. This is against the rec- ommendation of the state-aid engineer who recommended the less expensive $325,000 option of a three-inch bitumi- nous overlay which would last about 12 to 15 years. County Commissioner Bill Pinske initially made a mo- tion to go with the state-aid engineer recommendation of the less expensive option. He stated that “none of the five of us are experts on roads.” He felt that they should go with the engineer’s recom- mendation because “that’s why you have an expert come out.” Pinske’s motion to ap- prove the three-inch bitumi- nous overlay was defeated by a 2-3 vote. Pinske and Coun- ty Commissioner Bobbie Harder voted for the three- inch overlay while County Commissioners Joy Cohrs, Jim Swanson and Gary Kruggel voted against. Harder felt that there were a lot of other roads that were in need of repair. Swanson felt that the coun- ty would end up putting in a lot of more money for main- tenance with the cheaper op- tion. Harder stated that it was just a guestimate that will get cracks with the overlay. Public Works Director Tim Becker stated that with just the overlay the cracks would reappear in a couple years. Becker stated that “history shows that overlays tend to crack in two to three years.” Becker also provided the County Board with a compar- ison of the CSAH 8 hill ver- sus CSAH 12. Becker stated that the bituminous was done on CSAH 8 about 24 years ago, with an overlay about six years ago. CSAH 12 is about 47 years old with sev- eral overlays. A motion was made to ap- prove extending the CSAH 12 project with option 2, a full depth reclamation at a cost of $520,000. Harder, who voted against the motion, was not against repairing the CSAH 12 hill. She just felt that the financial difference in the two options could be used for other road projects. The Sibley County Board of Commissioners will hold its next regular meeting in Gaylord at 9 a.m. Tuesday, May 23.

*****A college student needed a small,
two-hour course to fill out his sched-ule. The only one that fit in was acourse in wildlife zoology. After justone week, the professor gave theclass a test. He passed out a sheet ofpaper divided into squares. In eachsquare were eight carefully drawnpictures of some bird legs. No bod-ies, no feet - just legs. Then he askedthe students to identify the birdsfrom their legs.
The student sat and stared at thetest and got more and more angry.Finally, he stomped up to the frontof the classroom and threw the teston the teacher’s desk.
“This is the worst test I’ve evertaken!” he declared.
The teacher looked up. “Youngman, you have just flunked this test.What is your name?”
The student pulled up his pantsto show the professor his legs.“You tell me!”
*****The key to success is setting
aside eight hours a day for workand eight hours for sleep andmaking sure they’re not the samehours.
*****After a worker drowned in a vat of
beer at the brewery, a co-worker
commented that he never had achance.
“I wouldn’t say that,” said awitness. “He got out twice to go tothe bathroom.”
*****A young girl came home from a
date looking sad. She told her moth-er, “Dan proposed to me a few min-utes ago.”
“Then why are you so sad?” hermother asked.
“Because he also mentioned hewas an atheist,” the girl replied. “Hedoesn’t believe in hell.”
Her mother replied, “Marryhim anyway. Between the two ofus, we’ll show him how wrong heis.”
*****Three boys are in the school yard
bragging about their fathers.The first boy says, “My dad scrib-
bles a few words on a piece of paperand calls it a poem, and they givehim $50.”
The second boy says, “That’snothing. My dad scribbles a fewwords on a piece of paper and callsit a prescription, and they give him$100.”
The third boy says, “I got youboth beat. My dad scribbles a fewwords on a piece of paper andcalls it a sermon. It takes eightpeople to collect all the money!”
*****The teacher after correcting class
papers remarked to the student, “Idon’t see how one person can makeso many mistakes on his home-work.”
The student considered for amoment, then replied, “It wasn’tone person. My dad helped.”
*****Lena was tired of her husband
coming home drunk, and decided toscare him straight.
One night, she put on a devil cos-tume and hid behind a tree to inter-cept him on the way home. Whenher husband walked by, she jumpedout and stood before him with herred horns, long tail and pitchfork.
“Who are you?” he slurred.“I’m the devil,” she answered.“Well, come on home with me,”
he said. “I married your sister.”*****
A couple was returning to theirseats after a trip to the movie theaterconcession stand.
“Did I step on your toes on theway out?” the guy asked the man atthe end of the row.
“You certainly did,” the man re-sponded angrily.
“All right,” the husband said tohis wife, “This is our row.”
Bonding bill proposalsare all released
Our View: Sibley County is shut out again The bonding bill proposals for the State of Minnesota
are finally on the table. DFL Governor Mark Daytonreleased his proposed $1.5 billion bonding bill onWednesday, Jan 4. The Senate, which is controlled bythe Republican Party, released its proposed $973 mil-lion bonding bill two weeks later. The House of Repre-sentatives, which is also controlled by the RepublicanParty, finally released its proposed $600 million bond-ing bill early last week.
The sad news is that none of the three proposedbonding bills include any projects in Sibley County.
Governor Dayton’s proposed bonding bill includesprojects in nearly 60 of Minnesota’s 87 counties. TheSenate’s proposed bonding bill includes projects inover 50 counties while the House’s proposed bondingbill includes projects in about 40 counties.
The absence of projects in Sibley County does notreflect well on State Senator Scott Newman and StateRepresentative Glenn Gruenhagen. The two politiciansneed to spend less time fighting the Democrats up inSt. Paul and more time fighting for residents in SibleyCounty.

Guest Columns

Both the Minnesota House andSenate recently passed legislation torepeal the heart of Minnesota's cam-paign finance reform laws. Thesewere major reforms adopted on a bi-partisan basis forty years ago in thewake of the Watergate scandal andwere strengthened after an ethicsscandal in the early 1990s.
Despite widespread disgust at thecorruption of our democracy frompowerful special interests and deepfrustration at the Citizens' Unitedruling which allowed more bigmoney into politics, there has beenno public outcry about this effort torepeal Minnesota's reforms, eventhough this will make the situationworse.
Why the lack of outcry? Simplyput, the public doesn't know aboutit. I have not seen a single news re-port about the issue, perhaps be-cause the repeal is buried in thelarge budget bill that funds stateagencies. It takes just 4 lines hiddenin a lengthy 56-page bill to destroyfour decades of campaign financing
reform. The law being repealed estab-
lished campaign spending limits forcandidates. Those spending limitsare tied to public financing to helpgive new candidates and those with-out a lot of money a chance to com-pete without relying on wealthy in-terests to fund their campaigns.
Virtually all candidates for theMinnesota legislature and constitu-tional offices currently abide by thespending limits. If this repeal issigned into law, in 2018 there won'tbe any restriction on how much acandidate can spend.
People who care about the futureof our democracy should be out-raged. Year after year, politiciansand the courts have been steadilyturning our democracy over to thehighest bidders, turning our elec-tions into auctions. Well-funded in-terests can win enough close racesto determine who controls govern-ment.
As a candidate who has rejectedall PAC and lobbyist money, I amconcerned that candidates who re-ject special interest money will have
no chance of winning, and that leg-islators will become even more be-holden to the interests of the bigdonors who fund their campaigns.
Major changes in state policysuch as this should not be buried inbudget bills. Senate File 605, theState Government AppropriationsBill that contains the repeal of thecampaign finance reforms, is in con-ference committee to work out dif-ferences between the House andSenate language. The one confereefighting to block it is Sen. CarolynLaine, the only DFL member of thecommittee. Unless the Republicanconference committee membershave a change of heart, or unless theGovernor vetoes the bill, Minneso-ta's campaign finance reforms willbe gone.
If we believe that our state shouldbe governed by the will of the vot-ers, not the desires of wealthydonors and powerful interests, weneed to speak out now. For the sakeof our democracy, we need the legis-lature to remove the repeal languageor for Governor Dayton to veto thebill.
Silently destroying Minnesota’s campaign financing reforms
By Amy KlobucharUnited States Senator
Wyoming Machine is making abig difference in Stacy. The companyrecently brought home the NationalAssociation of Workforce Boards’business leadership award for theirwork developing the local workforceand economy.
In Duluth, thanks to partnershipswith local employers, 70 students aregraduating from Lake Superior Col-lege every year with the skills need-ed to fill high-wage, high-growthjobs around the region.
My staff and I have covered thatand more with business leaders, edu-cators, and students from all acrossour state during discussions focusedon local initiatives to prepare tomor-row’s workers for the good jobsbusinesses are creating today.
We also heard about some of thechallenges employers are con-fronting. In Owatonna and CassLake, representatives from regionalworkforce centers highlighted thetrouble local businesses are havingfinding workers with the right skillsfor available jobs. Unfortunately,these companies aren’t alone – lastyear’s State of Manufacturing reportrevealed that 66 percent of Minneso-ta manufacturers had difficulty find-ing employees with the right skillsfor open jobs.
Registered apprenticeships helpbridge that skills gap by matchingworkers’ skills with those needed inhigh-demand jobs through a learn-and-earn approach. Students receivea salary while completing on-the-jobtraining tailored to the business’needs and certified by the Depart-
ment of Labor. That makes appren-ticeships one of the most-cost effec-tive workforce development tools inthe country.
They’re good for the companies,too.
For employers, apprenticeshipsprovide a workforce with trainingtailored to their needs, reduceturnover, and improve safety. Andthe focus on high-skill training willgive American businesses a competi-tive edge in the 21st century econo-my.
So we need to double down on ourefforts to expand these partnerships.
Two years ago, I successfullypressed for $5 million in grantmoney from the Department ofLabor to strengthen apprenticeshipsin Minnesota. Businesses and educa-tors have put the funds to good use.
In Spring Grove, LaX Fabricatingis partnering with Minnesota StateCollege Southeast in Winona to getmore students trained to be weldersand structural steel detailers. RoseauCounty Ford is working with localhigh schools to introduce students tothe industry and prepare them withthe skills they need to fill high-pay-ing jobs as auto mechanics.
At Bühler, Inc., in Plymouth, stu-dents at Dunwoody College of Tech-nology receive pay and benefitswhile they learn and work. And inPequot Lakes, Dane Walter changedcourse early in his collegiate careerto do an apprenticeship with PequotTool & Manufacturing. Thanks toPequot Tool’s work with CentralLakes College, Dane – like the hun-dreds of Minnesotans who pursueapprenticeships – is well on his way
to a successful career in the townwhere he grew up and where hewants to raise a family of his own.
Apprenticeships are a win-win-win: They align incentives for em-ployers, educators, and students. Butwe need to be doing more to supportthese partnerships. Despite clear evi-dence of the benefits, apprentice-ships are underutilized.
I am working with RepublicanSenator Susan Collins to change that.Our bipartisan bill, the American Ap-prenticeship Act, would providefunding to states to create or expandtuition assistance for participants inpre-apprenticeship and RegisteredApprenticeship programs. The legis-lation would also authorize the De-partment of Labor to award competi-tive grants to states that have devel-oped successful strategies to promotethese programs. That’s good newsfor our state, where Minnesotans arealready leading the way in bringingthe benefits of apprenticeships totheir communities and are poised todo even more.
Investments in apprenticeships areinvestments in our future. By 2018,it’s estimated that 70 percent of alljobs will require postsecondary train-ing. Just 40 percent of Minnesota’sworkforce currently meets that stan-dard. And with more and more BabyBoomers getting ready for retire-ment, the gap between trained work-ers and high-skill jobs will onlygrow. By committing to strengthen-ing our workforce, we’re committingto keeping Minnesota’s economystrong for years to come.

She started her career as a charge nurse and continued todo that for around 25 years where she moved onto Medicalrecords. Kris stated that she had an opportunity to help out inthe medical records for a short time but then ended up taking itover where she then became the Director of HIM. She hasbeen doing this for almost 20 years now. However this is notthe only role she has done. Kris has helped out in Laundry andactivities when those departments were in need of extra helpand still today continues to help out in the nursing department.Kris says our residents are the core of our nursing home. Theyshare their lives with us, life’s experiences, hopes and joyswith us. They brighten our day with smiles, humor and generous hearts. Our residents give us so much in return.“Kris has been a staple to our facility through the years” sayscoworker Tiffany Brockhoff. While Kris has been employedwith the Good Samaritan for nearly 45 years she still makestime to enjoy her family and grandchildren. She also findstime to paint, be active outdoors and her love of horses.
