By Alyssa Schauer Staff Writer W orking as a county commis- sioner has been a “whole different ballgame” for former state legislator Ron Shimanski. “In the Legislature, you’ve got a two-party system, with majority and minority parties. And the majority kind of runs the operation. But at the county level, there is no bi- partisanship. Everybody is on the same team and, conse- quently, you make decisions for the whole county. There is no executive branch. I guess we are the executive branch, making the final decisions,” Shimanski said. He added that as a commis- sioner, he has been working on committees that are “noth- ing like” the committees he was a part of as a state legis- lator. “The committees I’m most familiar with at the state level are not what I’m serving on at the county level. That in- cludes ag, transportation, public safety and judiciary,” he said. As a county commissioner, he is chairman of the social services committee. “A lot of my communication assign- ments deal with public health and social services,” he said.

Al Hahn, resident represen- tative for the project, said the utility companies are holding up progress. “R&R is doing the best they can to work around the utility companies, but we’re still waiting for utility companies to come move poles,” Hahn said.

Roquette said this questioning stems from an editorial published in the June 20 issue of the Silver Lake Leader written by Rich Glennie, editor. Glennie addressed the back- and-forth support from the Council on the paving of the Luce Line Trail, and the fact that it was due to councilors being absent at meetings, par- ticularly Roquette. He asked, “Is the commu- nity being well served by a City Council that is habitually short at least one member at most of its meetings?” He said Roquette was “at the center of the issue” be- cause her job with the airlines has kept her from attending many of the city meetings, and he questioned if she can be ef- fective as a “part-time coun- cilor.” “If I’m an embarassment to you all, then I’m wondering if I should resign,” Roquette said to councilors. “I’ve tried my hardest to be here for meetings,” she said. She added that finances have been difficult for her, but she “cashed in sick time” and “used up vacation” just to make it to some of the meet- ings. “I’m struggling here, but I’m trying,” she stated with emotion. Councilor Nolan Johnson told Roquette she’s “an asset” to the council. “Your liveli- hood comes first. That pays the bills,” he said. He added that being a coun- cilor is “extra” and that Roquette shouldn’t worry about what an editor is sug- gesting. Councilor Eric Nelson added comments about the in- tegrity of the writing in the paper, and said he agrees with Johnson. “You already know how I feel about you being here, Carol. We’ve talked about it. We support you. I think you know that,” Nelson said. Mayor Bruce Bebo asked Councilor Pat Fogarty what he felt, and Fogarty said he was “between a rock and a hard place” in having connections to the paper and being a coun- cil member. “I do think you’re an asset, Carol, but there was a time when you missed a bunch of meetings in a row. I know you are trying to be here, though,” he said. Mayor Bruce Bebo said he had spoken with Glennie about the editorial and “gave his opinion,” but he asked Roquette if it was “worth” giv- ing up sick time and vacation to be on the Council. “I do enjoy doing this,” she said. “But let me ask you some- thing, and don’t take this the wrong way. If you’re not at the meetings, and you’re not meeting with Gary (Kosek, Roquette’s liaison), then you’re not doing anything,” Bebo said. He added, “I’d just like you to find time to meet with Gary about the pool and summer rec. These meetings are tough, I know, but I’d just like to see a little more effort in meeting with your liaison.” “As long as you all have my back, I’ll fight the fight to keep getting here,” Roquette said.

Shimanski: Countygovernment muchdifferent than state
Ron Shimanski
and Trailblazer Transit.And Shimanski is not only
experiencing working in dif-ferent committees, but alsothe shift in responsibility as acommissioner versus a statelegislator.
“There is more responsibil-ity in terms of decisions.What we decide at the countylevel is more or less final.There is no veto or overridingor an executive branch tomake the final decisions.
“In the Legislature, I wasone of 201, and now I’m amember on a committee offive. Each one of our opin-ions and decisions carries alot more weight,” Shimanskisaid.
On the county level, heshared his opinions regardingthe recently implementedwheelage tax, investments inroads and bridges, thoughtson the new courthouse/jailproposals, the county’s in-volvement with the Luce LineTrail, and being a voice forrural Minnesota.
Wheelage tax“My personal philosophy is
that we shouldn’t raise taxesunless there is a strong argu-ment to do so,” Shimanskisaid.
“What concerned me aboutthe wheelage tax was thatthere was no discussion aboutcutting the property tax levyto correspond with adding awheelage tax,” he added.
Shimanski said the stateand federal governments areintent on raising taxes, “but Idon’t feel we need to get onboard with them. The taxpay-ers need somebody on theirside to say ‘enough isenough,’” he said.
Road and bridgesWhen it comes to investing
in road and bridge improve-ments in the county, Shiman-ski said “it’s a matter ofsetting priorities” regardingmore equipment, constructionand personnel.
“The big questions is ‘withlimited resources, how do wefund improvements?’” Shi-manski said.
“An awful lot of money hasbeen invested into roads andbridges, and there’s been a lotof discussion about our‘crumbling infrastructure,’”he said.
“I don’t think that our in-frastructure crumbling is a
valid argument anymore,”Shimanski said.
Courthouse/jail“I’m undecided about the
proposals for the propsosedexpansion of the courthouse,”Shimanski said.
He said it looks like a “fan-tastic plan” and agrees thatsome aspects are needed,such as the new beds for thejail.
Shimanski said he recievesweekly reports about thenumbers of inmates at thejail, “and they’re going up.But whether we need to go toa lockdown system or not isdebatable,” he said.
Shimanski said he visitedthe Hennepin County Court-house recently, and “it wasworse than going through anairport.”
He said he didn’t thinkthose same security measuresnecessarily need to be imple-mented in McLeod County.
“And then, of course,there’s the question aboutfunding, and whether or not
these improvements fallunder the stipulations fromAnnamarie’s (Tudhope) es-tate,” Shimanski said.
Luce Line TrailShimanski said his con-
cerns with paving the LuceLine Trail revolve around thefunding source and the factnot everybody is in support ofthe project.
“I don’t think it was appro-priate for the county and sur-rounding cities to commitmoney for the trail. It’s a statetrail. And then here we are,turning around to approve awheelage tax,” Shimanskisaid.
He said he understands theargument of bringing busi-ness to the area, “but hon-estly, I’d be hard-pressed tosee millions of dollars in eco-nomic development if wepave the trail,” he said.
Shimanski added that hehad been in discussion withproperty and business ownersalong the Dakota Rail Trail,who have not seen “millions”
in development, and othersalong the Luce Line Trail inCarver and Hennepin coun-ties.
“Carver and Hennepin al-ready voted paving down.They will not pave it,” hesaid.
*****“All in all, being a commis-
sioner is very interestingwork. It’s been interesting tosee all the different functions,operations, and industriesaround the county.
“Typically, one might notview McLeod County as a vi-brant business community,but it is. There’s a lot goingon here,” he said.
Shimanski said what thestate decides has “great im-pact” on the county.
“We need to safeguard theintegrity of rural Minnesota.We are losing influence in thestate Legislature, who focuson the concerns and interestsof the metro area,” Shimanskisaid.
He added: “We’ve got to beproactive and tell our story.”

“I could care less about fin-ing people. Let’s just get thisthing done!” Bebo said.
*****The Council also asked
about the intersections andwhy those aren’t finished.
“We have to wait for thecurb to get in. Once that’scured, they can saw blacktopand once it’s rolled, you candrive on it,” Hahn said.
He said the blacktop pavingshould take a day.
Hahn said the curb and gut-ter operations are about “two-thirds complete. We just haveto wait seven days for the con-crete to cure before we canstart sidewalks, driveways andbackfilling,” he said.
AssessmentsBlack presented the City
Council with an amended as-sessment roll and explainedthat some assessmentschanged due to location ofservice lines, “especially onthe corner lots,” Black said.
“Al (Hahn) had conversa-tions with these property own-ers, so they are all well awareof the changes,” City ClerkKerry Venier said.
The Council approved theamended assessment roll, andproperty owners have the op-portunity to pay assessmentsin full before mid-Novemberto avoid accruing interest.

Releasing the butterflyLast Thursday afternoon, students at FaithPresbyterian Preschool in Silver Lake re-leased their “pet” butterfly. The grouplearned about the nature and characteris-tics of butterflies, and watched a caterpil-lar form a cocoon, finding a Monarchbutterfly in their glass jar a few days later.
From left to right are Hadley Wagner, Mi-randa Nowak, Ella Graczyk, Garrett Millsand Ashlyn Imdieke. The five kids were ex-cited to see it fly away, as they each waved“Good-bye” to their fluttering friend.
I know I’ve said this about amillion times, but I love livingin the Midwest and I love myjob.
I can’t get over how delight-ful it is to experience four verydifferent seasons of weather— I don’t even mind the bittercold of January because Iknow it is accompanied by thebeautiful, soft, fluffy whitesnow that blankets the land-scape and seems to makeeverything glitter in the sun-light.
Though I’m sure I’ll becursing the cold and that glim-mering snow when the Jeepbreaks down in the middle ofnowhere on an icy road.
But for now, the upcomingautumn season has me in goodspirits — I’ve got the windowsopen, apple cinnamon candlesburning, and my moccasinson.
With school back in session,it’s been a couple of busyweeks for news lately, andMonday was no different as Iwas running all around town,interviewing the new face atJerabek’s Market, taking pic-tures of Grove Avenue con-struction, and talking withRon Shimanski about the dif-ferences between being a statelegislator and a county com-missioner.
Now, I’ll admit it — politicsreally aren’t something thatever grabbed my interest be-cause I feel there’s always alot of finger-pointing happen-ing between the parties.
And in my recent job as acopy editor, I’ve read a lot ofcolumns screaming “The De-mocrats are raising taxesagain!” Or “The Republicansare not supporting the middle
class!” The bickering gets tir-ing, and it seems there arehardly any solutions dis-cussed.
But ever since I started re-porting in Silver Lake, localgovernment in the city and thecounty have been very inter-esting for me.
I like getting involved in thelogistics of construction proj-ects and hearing the coun-cilors’ ideas for economicdevelopment — it showsthey’re working at improvingthe community.
And, of course, I don’t evenmind a little bit of drama overissues, such as heated discus-sions about paving the LuceLine or emotional conversa-tions from councilors aboutmissing meetings.
It not only makes for goodcopy, but it offers insight toboth sides on the topics, and asa reporter, I think it’s very im-portant for the community toknow what its local govern-ment is discussing and plan-ning.
But even the most juicy ofdiscussions couldn’t top meet-ing with Ron, because that po-litical interview wasaccompanied by a lesson ingrowing apple trees and a tourof his lush orchard.
The last time I had been toan orchard was probably about
five years ago, when I was incollege, so to stroll through thegroves on a beautiful, sunnyMonday for an interview,about politics no less, added tomy love for journalism.
My roommates and I headedto local orchards every Sep-tember to pick apples for applecrisp, enjoy a bumpy hay ride,and a steaming hot cup offresh cider.
Sometimes we’d make aday of it and find a corn mazeto get lost in and a bright or-ange pumpkin patch to locatethe biggest, roundest pumpkinfor carving.
But one of my favorite fallexperiences had to have beenwhen I was in fifth grade, andwe headed to Nelson’s Farm inLitchfield.
They had corn mazes and“pick your own pumpkin,” butwhat I remember most fondlywas swinging from a rope tiedto the barn rafters and landingin a pile of hay bales.
Ahh, I can still smell thatsweet fragrant of fruit justthinking about the orchardsand the stale, musty scent anditchy, scratchy feel of the hay.
Now only if politics couldbe accompanied by apple or-chard tours and jumps into thehay bales, I think we’d allhave a lot more fun.
The job: new faces, politics, apples

It’s a big week for the Pan-ther varsity tennis team, facinga pair of conference opponentswith seeding implications forsections on the line.
Glencoe-Silver Lake’srecord in the Wright CountyConference improved to 3-3,after losing last week to HolyFamily 7-0, and edging Litch-field 4-3.
GSL is coming off a toughweekend where it didn’t win asingle match at the HutchinsonInvitational, and lost to Mel-rose 6-1 on Saturday. The Pan-thers did, however, defeatBelgrade-Brooten-Elrosa 5-2,which head coach RobbDeCorsey was pleased with.
GSL is behind ProvidenceAcademy and Holy Family insection seedings, and will needa win this week in order tomaintain the current ranking.The Panthers host Hutchinsonand New London-Spicer this
week, both conference oppo-nents.
“The big one now is to takecare of business on Thursdaywith New London,” DeCorseysaid. “Then I think we wouldbe the No.3 seed.”
Coming off a tough set ofmatches, GSL has to focus onwhat is ahead, because the sec-tion tournament starts on Oct.2.
A big part of that will be theplay of No.1 singles standout,Kelly Arnold, who said thetough competition this teamfaced at the beginning of theyear should help come sec-tions.
“It helped us play better,”Arnold said. “Even thoughwe’ve lost, you can tell that thegirls are playing a lot betterthan if they were playingagainst someone that wasn’tthat good.”
The senior said she’s defi-nitely noticed the improve-ment of their No.3 doubles
team as of late. “Emily VonBerge and Ash-
lyn Ratike have really steppedup,” Arnold said. “They playreally well together.”
The key is getting everyoneto play their best tennis at thesame time, as different playershave come on strong, whileothers tapered off, Arnold said.
“One person does well oneday, and another person doesbad,” she said. So GSL willhave to find some consistencythis week in order to maintainthat No.3 spot come sections.
For herself, Arnold said, “Ijust need to play like Kelly.Sometimes I overthink, so Ijust have to go out there andplay hard.”
The Panthers host New Lon-don-Spicer on Thursday forparents’ and senior night, start-ing at 4:15 p.m. They thenhave a week off before theteam section tournament startson Oct. 2 at St. John’s Univer-sity.

Tori Burr is already off to agreat start for the Glencoe-Sil-ver Lake girls’ cross countryteam, with a pair of top-10 fin-ishes in the first two meets.
Burr took second place atthe Norwood Young Americameet held at Baylor Park witha time of 15:39. She finishedjust nine seconds behind Wa-conia’s Alexis Willems, whocame in at 15:30.
With a little less competi-tion and a familiar course,Burr’s time differential be-tween Montgomery and NYAwas nearly a minute faster(16:21).
Burr wasn’t the only one toimprove.
Jenny Illg broke 18 minuteswith a time of 17:59 andearned a ribbon for her efforts.
All the varsity runners im-proved greatly from Mont-gomery, as girls took 10thplace out of 15 teams.
“All of the JV and varsitygirls were focused to run theirbest during the entire meet,”head coach Jann Savre said.“It was great to see their ef-forts pay off with improvedtimes, and we would like tocontinue this trend as the sea-son continues.”
The home meet for both theboys’ and the girls’ teams isThursday, starting at 4:30p.m., following a K-6 fun run.Both teams then travel to Das-sel-Cokato on Tuesday, Sept.24 for a Wright County Con-ference showdown with theChargers starting at 4 p.m.

Burr takes 2nd at NYA
Clouse rushes for 239 yards against CardinalsBy Josh RandtSports Editor
Down 14-12 to the AnnandaleCardinals at halftime, the Glen-coe-Silver Lake Panthers de-cided it was time for somepower football in the secondhalf.
Senior fullback Dalton Clousehad about 80 rushing yards inthe first half alone. By game’send, the captain had 239 yards,and two touchdowns as the Pan-thers rolled over the Cardinals,48-28.
Clouse set the tempo early inthe second half, when he burstup the middle for a 55-yardtouchdown run on his secondtouch.
With a steady dose of Clousein the mix, the defense started tokey in on the fullback, whichmade the job easier for GSL’sother offensive weapons.
“Coach just said we needed tostart playing Panther football,”Clouse said of the team’s half-time adjustments. “Smashmouthfootball, that’s what we’re about.Go up the middle and hit hard.We couldn’t spread it out any-more, because they were shut-ting that down.”
The captain even generated aspark on defense, earning a sackwhile Annandale was drivingearly in the fourth quarter.
“He’s a three-year starter forus, and our whole offense re-volves around him and Keaton(Anderson),” head coach ScottTschimperle said. “That was themost carries I think a back hasever had for us.”
One big reason Clouse hadsuch a field day was the play ofthe offensive line.
“Our offensive line did a phe-nomenal job blocking,” Tschim-perle said. “Dalton had a biggame, but he wouldn’t have, hadour offensive line not played aswell as they did in the secondhalf.”
“I couldn’t have scored any of
those touchdowns without myoffensive line and Jake Stuede-mann with his outstandingblocks on the outside,” Clouseechoed.
The Panthers now host the 3-0 Wildcats from New London-Spicer this week, as GSL looksto improve to 3-1 in the Wright
County Conference. Fridaynight is Randy Shaver’s TackleCancer Night, where cash dona-tions will be accepted at thedoor. It is also parents’ night forthe cheerleaders and footballplayers. Kickoff is scheduled for7 p.m. at Stevens Seminary Sta-dium.

Important week for Panther tennis
By Josh RandtSports Editor
The Glencoe-Silver Lakeboys’ soccer team welcomedsome new members to theteam this past week, whichshould improve the team’sscoring chances with freshlegs on the field.
Seniors Aaron Berdt andLou Iacona, along with soph-omore Mark Luedens, give thePanthers an opportunity to subplayers more frequently,something they were hardlyable to do before.
“Now we have substitu-tions, and players will be ableto get a rest when they needit,” head coach Jeff Shultssaid. “Those new players alsohave a lot to contribute to theteam performance during
games and practices.” GSL is also giving sopho-
more Spencer Lund an oppor-tunity to play goalie, whichfrees up Kyle Beck and AaronRhodes to help out elsewhere.
Despite the lineup changes,the Panthers still have yet towin a game this season.
Last week, they droppedgames to Mayer Lutheran andOrono, allowing 16 goals inthe two-game stretch.
The second half of the sea-son for the Panthers starts thisweek, as they travel toMound-Westonka on Tuesday.GSL then has a rematch withChain of Lakes Soccer Clubon Thursday at PaynesvilleHigh School before hostingDelano on Monday. All gamesare at 7 p.m.
New memberson soccer team
Tori Burr has two top-10finishes in the first twomeets of the year for thePanthers.
By Josh RandtSports Editor
The boys’ cross country teamposted another top-10 finish lastweek, competing at Baylor Parkagainst 19 teams with 132 run-ners.
A fifth-place finish was goodfor 155 points, as BrandonRichter and Jac Chelman con-tinue to lead the way for Glen-coe-Silver Lake.
The two finished one after an-other, with Richter taking 10thplace (17:38) and Chelman 11th(17:45).
Head coach Jeff Delwichesaid his team needs to find somesolid runners in the latter half ofthe lineup to start placing a littlehigher.
“We have some really goodperformances from half theteam, we just need to put it all to-
gether,” Delwiche said. “Wedon’t need another fourth inthere, we need someone closerto Ober, Chelman and thoseguys.”
GSL finished three spots be-hind Jordan at Baylor, and twospots behind them at the meetheld in Montgomery two weeksago. Delwiche feels his teamshould be able to out performJordan, but needs a solid teamperformance.
“I think if we put it all to-gether, we can beat Jordan,”Delwiche said. “But they’ve gota pretty nice pack for their third,fourth and fifth runners. Ours arekind of all over the place rightnow. If we pack them togetherlike we can with our top two, Ithink we can beat them.”
GSL’s top three runners fin-ished with better times than Jor-
dan’s top three, but their lowestrunner finished in 60th placewith 19:20. The Panther’s bot-tom two runners for the meet,Casey Schulz and MichaelShaefer, each went over 20:00.
Still, Delwiche likes thisteam’s chances of going to state.
“We’re still looking at state,”he said. “We still have enoughgoing on, and there aren’t anymajor injuries ... If our best fiverunners show up at the sametime, we’re still capable of goingto state.”

Courthouse: don’t close northentrances, residents tell BoardBy Lori CoplerStaff Writer
The handful of people whospoke at McLeod County’spublic hearing Tuesday morn-ing on a proposed $7 millionjail expansion/courthouse se-curity project seemed to haveat least one common cause —they do not want the north en-trances of the courthouseclosed.
And after hearing those con-cerns, the County Board ap-proved a not-to-exceed cost of$5,000 to have its architectsreview its plans and see if itcould accommodate keepingat least one of the two northentrances open, and set an Oct.22 date for making a decisionon whether it will proceedwith the project or not.
The scope of the proposedproject includes closing thenorth entrances to public ac-cess (they could still be usedas emergency exits), andbuilding a new, secured en-trance and lobby area wherethe current southeast entranceexists at the juncture of thecourthouse and the law en-forcement center near the IvesAvenue-10th Street intersec-tion.
John McNamara of WoldArchitects said the proposedproject — which he called“very, very conceptual at thispoint” — actually addressesthree issues: security, handi-capped accessibility and aneed for additional space inthe law enforcement center.
An addition with a new en-trance and lobby would helpaddress security and handi-capped accessibility, since thenew space — if the north en-trances were closed — wouldprovide one controlled accesspoint to the courthouse, pro-vide a secured hallway fortransporting prisoners to anupstairs courtroom, and pro-
vide an elevator to the secondfloor.
The addition also would in-crease space in the law en-forcement center for at least 15additional beds and additionalspace for inmates to meet withattorneys, public health offi-cials and counselors, bookinginmates and sallyport space forsquad cars that are transport-ing prisoners.
The county is hoping to useabout $3.8 million to $4 mil-lion from the estate of Anna-marie Tudhope to fund a goodportion of the project, particu-larly the jail needs.
County Attorney MikeJunge said Tudhope’s will stip-ulates that the money must beused for the construction of anew jail in Glencoe, but thatthe county could ask a judgefor a ruling on whether theproposed improvements meetthe intent of the will.
Junge also said the project,if the County Board proceedswith it, would “correct a num-ber of issues cited by the De-partment of Corrections” inregards to the jail, includinginsufficient conference areas.
It also would set up a videovisiting area, so that visitorswould have contact over avideo system with inmates,rather than through a glasspanel.
“The prisoners would neverleave the perimeter of the jail,”said Junge. Under the currentsystem, prisoners are escortedthrough public areas to the vis-iting area.
The location of the currentelevator also creates accessi-bility issues after hours and onweekends, when the lobbyarea is closed, said Junge.
The addition of another 15beds to the jail can be donewithout increasing staff, saidJunge. It is expected that theincrease in beds will save the
county about $100,000 a yearover the costs of boarding in-mates in other facilities.
Scott Nokes, an attorney andcourt-appointed public de-fender, said he appreciates theproposed improvements to thejail.
“It’s a struggle having to seeclients in the jail,” said Nokes.Even more of a struggle, hesaid, is making arrangementsto see clients who are boardedin the Renville County Jail.
But Nokes does have aproblem with restricting ac-cess to the courthouse, he said.
“When you look at restrict-ing access to one point, thatgets to be problematic,” Nokessaid, particularly when he con-siders that his office is locatedacross the street from the northentrances to the courthouse.
Dan Perschau also said heobjects to closing the north en-trances, both for architecturalreasons and because of the po-tential impact on 11th Streetbusinesses.
Chuck Shamla said he isconcerned with the proposal toclose part of Ives Avenue. Heand his brother, John, own aservice station at the intersec-tion of Ives and 11th Street,northeast of the courthouse.
Although there would stillbe some access to the businessfrom Ives, closing a portion ofthe street “impacts trafficflow,” said Shamla, and askedthe County Board to considerthe potential impact to hisbusiness.
Part of the project is to closea portion of Ives Avenue so thecounty could increase parkingspace east of the courthouse.
Gary Ballard of Glencoe,who spearheaded opposition toan earlier, more expansive andmore expensive jail project,asked the County Board todrop its proposal altogether,and to allow the Tudhope es-
tate to earn interest.Ballard said he feels the pro-
posed project is being drivenby a desire to spend theTudhope money.
“I think that $4 million isburning a hole in yourpocket,” said Ballard. “Let itearn interest over the next 15years — then you’ll havesomething to work with.”
Ballard also said that in thelast proposal, an auditorshowed that it was less costlyto board prisoners elsewherethan to house them in the localjail.
“It costs $160 a day to housethem here, and you can rentjail space for $55 a day,” saidBallard.
But Junge again pointed outthat adding 15 beds will not re-quire hiring additional staff.
“You divide that $160 by 50beds rather than 35, and thecost is less per inmate,” saidJunge.
Ballard also said that reac-tion to recent shootings haspeople overreacting when itcomes to security in publicvenues.
“This security thing has got-ten way, way overblown,” saidBallard. “People are lockeddown in their offices and youcan’t even see them anymore.”
After more discussion, theCounty Board decided to askWold to look at ways to keepthe north entrances open whilestill addressing security issues.
Commissioner Sheldon Niessaid that once the CountyBoard decides on Oct. 22whether to proceed or not, itwill bring the Tudhope issue infront of a judge for a ruling.
If a judge rules that the es-tate money cannot be used forthe project, Nies said, theCounty Board will not likelycontinue with the proposal.
We’ll jump on a small rollercoaster this week as temper-atures ramp up and back down again towards the weekend.This is the time of year storm systems start paradingthrough the area, creating the ups and downs we’re used toin Minnesota, so no complaining (and honestly this won’tbe bad at all).
Temperatures rose early in the week after a cool andsoggy weekend. The rain was very important, though, asdrought conditions continue to worsen across the UpperMidwest.
A strong storm will build in from Canada toward the endof the week and perhaps spread some more rain across thearea late Wednesday night into Friday. We’ll go from highsclose to 80 Thursday to highs Friday-Saturday only in the60s.
As the storm passes to our north, it will slam a cold frontinto the area, making for a breezy Friday. Things clear outfor the weekend, but it will be cooler, possibly ramping tothe low 70s Sunday if the storm moves away fast enough.
Taking a look at the extended shows more of the samewith warm ups followed by quick-moving storms and cooldowns … here we go! Now would be the time to get yourautumn clean up on the books; don’t fall behind. Have agreat week, all!

Even after 30 years, “Ilove it. I like helpingpeople,” Diann Motz
said of her job as an eligibil-ity worker for McLeodCounty Social Services.
So why is she choosing toretire Sept. 30?
“Well, I’m 65 and it’s been30 years,” Motz laughed.“It’s time to give someoneelse a chance at a careerhere.”
Prior to the start of her ca-reer with McLeod County onJuly 18, 1983, Motz held avariety of jobs, starting withworking for her dad, whoowned a garage business inthe Twin Cities area.
“I started for him when Iwas 14, taking care of ac-counts of payable and receiv-able, ordering parts, whateverhe needed,” said Motz.
Motz also has been a tele-phone operator, bank teller,bartender … all jobs that re-quired interaction with peo-ple, and helped hone herpeople skills, which havebeen put into good use in herjob with McLeod County.
When she started with thecounty, her job was termed“financial worker,” ratherthan “eligibility worker,” andthere were just five suchworkers, four of whom han-dled caseloads and one forfood stamps.
Now, there is a total of 18eligibility workers, split be-tween family and adult cases.
And there were no comput-ers in use back in 1983, saidMotz.
“Everything was hand writ-ten and hand calculated,” saidMotz.
Her job as an eligibilityworker is to help people inneed find programs that canhelp them, and that can runthe gamut from cash assis-tance and medical assistanceto food and child care.
And it almost seems thatwith each legislative session,programs and eligibility stan-dards change, added Motz, soeligibility workers are con-stantly seeking training. Thisyear, the new MNsure healthcoverage program is beingthrown into the mix, butMotz will be retired beforethe program goes into effectin October.
The job has changed inother ways, too, Motz said. Itused to be that eligibilityworkers were assigned case-loads, and would be assignedclients for as long as thoseclients needed help.
Now, duties are rotated:One week, Motz may be as-
signed to simply processingapplications for assistance;another week, she may be as-sessing new applications; andin another, she may be inter-viewing new clients.
“I miss the personal con-tact of following a familyfrom start to end,” said Motz,“but the new case manage-ment system has its advan-tages, too.”
Motz said she has “no bigplans” for retirement, butplenty of little ones.
“I’ll have time to do all
those little repairs around thehouse that never seem to getdone,” said Motz, who livesin Brownton.
She also plans to spendtime visiting her husband’srelatives in Arizona, Texasand Georgia, and maybe dip aline in the lake on nice days.
Plus, she has five kids, 17grandkids and one great-grandson to follow around.
“I’ll finally have time to goto all those games,” Motzlaughed.
Motz loves her job, but readyto let it go after 30 years
