for employee salary/wage/benefit pack
By Kurt Menk
Editor
The Arlington City Council, during a recent regular
meeting, unanimously approved a motion to approve
the employee evaluations.
The City Council made the
move after it conducted the
employee evaluations in a
closed session.
In other action, the City
Council unanimously adopted
a resolution to approve the
employee salary/wage/benefit
package for 2017.
Under the resolution, the
city will cover 75 percent of
the premium costs for health
insurance with the remaining
25 percent being paid for by
the employees.
In addition, the city will
contribute $1,800 to each eligible HSA Account in 2017.
The full-time employees
who received a satisfactory or
higher rating on their performance evaluation, and
who have not reached the top
of their payscale, will receive
step increases. There were no
cost of living increases. Step
increases range from $.38 to
$.61 and corresponds to complexity of job responsibilities,
according to City Administrator Liza Donabauer.
Concern over transparency is expressed
at Sibley County Commissioners meeting
By Amy Newsom
Correspondent
Sibley County Commissioner Bobbie Harder, during
the County Board meeting on
Tuesday morning, Jan. 3, presented an e-mail that she received from a constituent
voicing concerns about transparency with the County
Board no longer recording
meetings.
The e-mail stated that the
Cable Commission offered to
purchase equipment and air
meetings.
County Commissioner Bill
Pinske and Board Chairper-
son Gary Kruggel thought
that the Cable Commission
offered that about eight to 10
years ago.
The e-mail quoted Pinske
agreeing to the offer from the
Cable Commission.
County Administrator
Roxy Traxler said that the
CountyBoard has the recorder
to tape meetings, but the
Cable Commission has not
come to pick up the recordings in about three years.
There was some discussion
among the County Board
members that only those people who have Mediacom
could see the meeting. Pinske
stated that Mediacom did not
provide a schedule of when
the meetings were broadcast.
Traxler felt that live streaming would be the better option, but not all Sibley County residents can live stream.
Harder stated that she felt
that the County Board has become more transparent in the
last few years and not less.
Harder stated that before
Traxler was hired the prior
administrator used to send
notices to County Board
members that the press could
not see. Harder said that
Traxler does not do this and
members of the public and
the press have the same information as County Board
members. Gaylord Hub reporter Lisa Uecker agreed
that transparency is better
now and everything is in the
packets. Agendas, packets,
and claims are available on
the County website.
Traxler stated that the issue
of transparency has only been
brought up by one constituent.

Discussion
County Commissioners
also discussed an application
process for citizen appointments to county committees.
The application could be used
to appoint people to the Economic Development Committee or any committee that
needs citizen appointments.

out to fill committee appointments, but having an application may encourage others to
apply and make it a fairer
process.

looked at examples from several other counties. Swanson
wanted to keep it simple and
felt that a one page application was sufficient. County
Administrator Roxy Traxler
will make a simple application and bring it back for
County Board approval.

Open House is scheduled for the
2017 Street Improvement Project
By Kurt Menk
Editor
The Arlington City Council
will hold an open house for
the 2017 Street Improvement
Project at the Community
Center from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Tuesday, Jan. 10.
The purpose of the open
house will give the public an
opportunity to review the
plans, ask questions, make

Fourth Avenue Northwest
from West Chandler Street to
West Alden Street; West
Brooks Street from Highway
5 to Third Avenue Northwest;
West Alden Street from Highway 5 to Second Avenue
Northwest; and Third Avenue
Northwest from West Alden
Street to West Brooks Street.
The proposed improvements are to replace and improve the water supply system, storm sewer, sanitary
collection system and provide
an improved driving surface,
according to city officials. Alternate alley drainage improvements and/or a water
main looping area within the
project area are also being
discussed. As part of the

ects, at 15-year bond terms.

the improvements for the
2017 Street Improvement
Project is $1,712,861.50 with
$156,461.25 in alternates.

Solar stated that “Xcel is
willing to buy electricity at
premium rates to meet that
quota.”
The County Board voted
4-1 for the first option, to
subscribe 120 percent of
the county’s electric usage
to the community solar garden in Hector. The county
will save one cent per kilowatt hour with a two percent escalator. It will be a
25-year contract with a termination fee. Kaehler said
the termination fee was to
discourage leaving the garden.
Harder, who voted
against the motion, stated
that she wasn’t against
looking at alternative
sources of energy, but she
was concerned about the
25-year commitment and
felt that she did not have
enough information.

Several commissioners
voiced concerns about having solar panels on a county
roof.
The third option was a
combination of applying
for a third party ownership
net metered solar array,
placing the panels on top of
the county service center
building, and subscribing
the remaining electric
usage to the Hector garden.
With this option the county
would have had the opportunity to buy the solar panels after tax options are
used. Kaehler felt that this
option just wasn’t financially feasible.
County Commissioner
Bobbie Harder questioned
who was paying for these
gardens.
State legislation requires
that 1.5 percent of utility
companies retail sales come
from solar by the end of
2020. In addition, Xcel Energy must meet 25 percent
of its electricity sales from

The Sibley County
Board, during its regular
meeting on Tuesday morning, Dec. 27, voted 4-1 to
join a community solar garden in Hector.
Ralph Kaehler from
Novel Energy Solutions
presented the Sibley County Board with three options
for solar power. The first
option is to subscribe 120
percent of the county’s
electric usage to the community solar garden in Hector where the county would
save one cent per kilowatt
hour with a two percent escalator.
The second option was a
combination of building a
rooftop community garden
on the county’s service center, subscribing to 40 percent of that garden, and
subscribing the remaining
usage to the Hector community garden. The county
would have received $600

Crazy events happened in
Minnesota over the holidays
Our View: People who disrupt public
events and threaten the safety of others
should receive harsh punishment
Minnesota is normally a quiet state, especially over the holidays.
The crazy events and stories normally happen in Hollywood, California, or New York City. That was not the case in the Gopher state during the recent holidays.
A man and a woman caused a disruption on a flight heading from
Minneapolis to Los Angeles. The disruption was so bad that the pilot,
after repeated warnings, turned the airplane around and headed back
to Minneapolis. Once the airplane landed in Minneapolis, police escorted the couple off the plane.
The man was cited for disorderly conduct and obstructing the legal
process. The woman was cited for disorderly conduct. Both individuals were booked in jail and released. In other words, these two individuals who inconvenienced many people and were a potential safety
hazard in the skies, will get a slap on the wrist.
Several days later, two Dakota Access Pipeline protesters climbed a
support truss inside U.S. Bank Stadium and hung a huge banner during the Minnesota Vikings game.
The two men were later arrested and booked into the Hennepin
County Jail for burglary and trespassing, both gross misdemeanors. A
woman was also arrested and charged with obstructing the legal
process. The cases will no doubt result in a plea bargain.The three individuals, who threatened the safety of several fans beneath them,
will plead guilty to much lesser charges.
It is time for state and federal lawmakers to get tough with individuals who cause disruptions and threaten the safety of others in public
places. Hefty fines and lengthy imprisonments should be mandatory.
People who cause a disruption on an airplane should never be allowed to fly again. Individuals who raise a ruckus and threaten the
safety of others at a public event should receive a lifetime ban from
that facility.
Unless penalties and punishments become more harsh, these types
of crazy and selfish events will continue to occur.

A couple of dog owners are arguing about whose dog is smarter.
“My dog is so smart,” says the
first owner, “that every morning he
waits for the paper boy to come
around. He tips the kid and then
brings the newspaper to me, along
with my morning coffee.”
“I know,” says the second owner.
“How do you know?” the first
owner asks.
“My dog told me,” replies the
second owner.
*****
“How much do you charge?” a
man asks a lawyer.
“I get $50 for three questions,” the
lawyer answers.
“That’s awfully steep, isn’t it?”
says the man.
“Yes, it is,” replies the lawyer.
“Now, what’s your final question.”

David said to the psychiatrist,
“Doc, every time I get into bed, I
think there’s somebody under it. You
gotta help me!”
“Come to me three times a week
for two years and I’ll cure your
fears,” said the shrink. “And I’ll
only charge you $200 a visit.”
“I’ll think about it,” said David.
Six months later the doctor met
David on the street and asked why
he never came to see him.
“For two hundred bucks a visit?”
David said. “A bartender cured me
for ten dollars.”
“Is that so?” replied the psychiatrist. “How?”
David answered, “He told me to
cut the legs off the bed.”

Babs couldn’t understand why she
was losing so badly at Trivial Pursuit. Nevertheless, she persevered,
rolling the dice and landing on green
- Science & Nature. Her question
was, “If you are in a vacuum and
someone calls your name, can you
hear it?”
Babs mulled over the question
for a minute, and then asked, “Is it

A teacher was explaining to her
first graders about water evaporation. “When you go home,” she suggested, “put some water in a pan.
Look at the pan tomorrow and see
what has happened to the water.”
The next day, little Johnny was
beaming as class began. “Teacher, I
did the experiment. “It put some
water in a pan and it disappeared.”
“So the water evaporated,” the
teacher replied.
“No,” Johnny proclaimed. “My
dog drank it.”
*****
The lawyer was cross-examining a
witness. “Isn’t it true,” he bellowed,
“that you were given $500 to throw
the case?”
The witness did not answer. Instead, he just stared out the window
as though he hadn’t heard the question. The attorney repeated himself,
again getting the same response.
Finally, the judge spoke to the witness, “Please answer the question.”
“Oh,” said the startled witness.
“I thought he was talking to you.”

A girl brought her new boyfriend
home to meet her parents. They were
horrified by his greasy hair, tattoos,
dirty language and air of hostility.
After he left, the mother said, “Dear,
he doesn’t seem like a very nice person.”
The daughter replied, “Mom, if
he wasn’t a nice person, why
would he be doing 500 hours of
community service?”

What is wrong with some School Board members?
To The Editor,
I saw in last week’s Arlington Enterprise where Nathan Kranz made a
motion about having background
checks completed before Sibley East
employees begin working. This motion was seconded by Dan Woehler,
but the motion failed by a 4-2 vote.
Don’t these four other School
Board members care what could
happen to the children? Is this why

Kurt Menk, Editor; Barb Mathwig, Office; Brenda Fogarty, Sue
Keenan, Sales; and Jean Olson,
Proof Reading.
Kranz didn’t get voted to stay on the
School Board? I suppose these
School Board members don’t want
anyone to rock the boat. As people
know, Kranz will ask questions and
say how he feels.
This motion that was brought up
is very serious. I read in an area
newspaper not long ago where another school experienced the same
thing.
What is wrong with these four
School Board members?
I also think it is time that people
living in the Sibley East School District should come and speak up
when these School Board members
let something like this go on at Sibley East.

Iona Scharpe, 89, Arlington, entered eternal rest at the
Arlington Good Samaritan
Society on
T h u r s d a y,
Dec. 29.
Funeral
service was
held at Zion
Lutheran
Church in Arlington at 11
a.m. Tuesday,
Jan. 3. Rev.
Iona
Deborah
Scharpe
Dawson officiated.
Visitation was held at Zion
Lutheran Church from 4 p.m.
to 7 p.m. Monday, Jan. 2. It
continued one hour prior to
the service time at the church
on Tuesday, Jan. 3.
Interment was in the Glencoe City Cemetery.
Iona Gladys Scharpe was
born to Leonard and Elsie
(Grack) Bulau in New
Auburn Township on Sept.
18, 1927. Iona was baptized
into Christ at Zion Lutheran
Church, rural Arlington, by
Rev. W. Schlachtenhaufen on
Oct. 9, 1927. She was confirmed in the Christian faith
at Zion Lutheran Church,
rural Arlington Rev. Wm.
Striepe on April 6, 1941.
On March 4, 1945, Iona
was united in marriage to
Clarence Scharpe at Zion
Lutheran Church, New
Auburn Township. Their marriage was blessed with six
children, Donald, James,
Neil, Steven, Kathleen, and
Jane. Clarence and Iona
farmed in New Auburn
Township until 1977 when
they moved to a hobby farm
just west of Arlington. In
spring of 2000, they moved
into a twin home in Arlington. Iona was able to remain
in her twin home even after
Clarence moved to the Arlington Good Samaritan Center in May of 2014. Clarence
passed away on May 6, 2016,
after 71 years of marriage to
Iona. In August of 2016, Iona
moved to Fairview Assisted
Living, Arlington, followed
by a move to Arlington Good
Samaritan Center a few
weeks later.
Iona was known to many in
the area as a very talented
seamstress. She sewed many
bridesmaid and prom dresses
and altered wedding dresses,
as well as made alterations
and repairs to just about any
item brought to her as long as
it was made of fabric. In her
spare time, she liked to do
embroidery and crewel work.
Iona enjoyed cooking and
baking and was known for
her ability to bake wonderful
homemade bread and buns.
Iona always had a big garden
before moving into town.
She enjoyed visiting with and
cooking for her family and
friends. She and Clarence
also loved to dance and travel. Clarence and Iona spent
many weekends at their cabin
on Clearwater Lake near Annandale. Iona was a life-long
member of Zion Lutheran
Church, Arlington. She and
Clarence regularly attended
worship as long as they were
physically able. They were
instrumental in moving Zion
Lutheran Church from rural
Arlington to its current location in the City of Arlington.
Iona and Clarence set a fine
example of the importance of
clinging to faith in God and
also the importance of hard
work and moving forward in
faith even in difficult times.
Iona is survived by sons,
James (Myrna) Scharpe of
Arlington, Neil (Jo Lynne)
Scharpe of Minot, N.D., and
Steven (Cindy) Scharpe of
Green Isle; daughters, Kathleen (Brian) Oelfke of Hamburg, and Jane Scharpe (Dave

Principal’s Note Pad
Counseling is a high quality program
By Steve Harter
SE Junior High Principal
One of the many high quality programs that we have at
Sibley East is the junior high
counseling program. Our
counselor, Vikki Louwagie, a
valued member of the junior
high staff, wears many different hats and provides much
needed services to all of our
students. She has composed a
brief description of her position:
Within the counseling department every day is very
different. As a school counselor, the focus is on the academic,
personal,
and
social/emotional well-being
of all students. School Counselors spend time working
with students one-on-one, in
small groups, and in the
classroom. Time is also spent
consulting with staff, parents,
and community resources.
Working towards academic
success means helping a student create a four year plan
for high school that fulfills
the academic requirements
for graduation while also
challenging the student and
provides relevant elective
courses. Counselors meet
with students throughout the
school year to encourage and
help find supports for a student to ensure that the student
is earning credit in their
courses. When credits are not
earned due to failed grades, a
school counselor will help the
student create a plan to recover those credits to remain on
track for graduation.
When students are struggling academically in school,
it is often a symptom of
something else going on.
Mental health is very important to academic success.
School counselors can assess
and provide support for personal and mental health concerns, often referrals are
made to medical and/or mental health professionals.
School counselors play a
large role in coordinating various services. Coordinating
these services means being a
member of many teams and
sitting in on many meetings.
Academic Assistance team
meetings, Child Study team
meetings, Special Education
team meetings, AVID site
team meetings, Family Facilitator meetings, Child Protection team meetings, and tran-
sition meetings can easily fill
a counselor’s schedule.
Some of the most rewarding and productive meetings
involve those with students.
Small groups are offered
throughout the year to help
support personal growth.
Some of the small groups that
have been offered include
cancer support groups,
friendship groups, self-esteem groups, children of divorce/blended family groups,
and depression and anxiety
groups. Small groups usually
consist of 3-6 students.
Counselors will also work
with larger groups by going
in to the classroom. Each
year, one classroom presentation with 8th graders will
focus on the dangers of sexting and what students need
to know about online safety.
Many classroom lessons
focus on career exploration
and helping students to develop a personal learning plan so
that they are career and college ready before graduation.
The fact that every day in
the counseling department is
very different is what makes
it the perfect combination of
challenging and rewarding.

Lady Wolverines place 2nd at
holiday basketball tournament
By Kurt Menk
Editor
The Sibley East varsity
girls basketball team split two
games and placed second during the Home Town Bank
Holiday Basketball Tournament at Redwood Falls last
week.
The Lady Wolverines, 2-2
in the Minnesota River Conference and 4-6 overall, will
travel to St. Peter in non-conference action at 7:30 p.m.
Monday, Jan. 9.
Sibley East 59
Dawson-Boyd 51
The Sibley East varsity
girls basketball team defeated
Dawson-Boyd 59-51 during
the opening round of the
Home Town Bank Holiday
Basketball Tournament at
Redwood Falls on Thursday
afternoon, Dec. 29.
Senior Hannah Wentzlaff
topped the winners with 27
points. Junior Morgan
Stearns also hit double figures with 14 points. Freshman McKenzie Latzke
dropped in five points while
juniors Taylor Brink-man,
Alexandra Stock and sophomore Rachel Rettmann
hooped four points apiece.
Junior Taylor Perschau added
one point.
Wentzlaff also grabbed 18
rebounds while Stearns contributed 10 boards and 10 assists.
“I think it is the best bas-
ketball we have played this
season,” said Sibley East
head coach Jim DeSart. “It
was a very good team win. I
was very pleased with our
performance. Rebounding
was solid and we did a better
job taking care of the ball.”
DeSart continued, “One
trend that I have noticed is
historically over the years,
player confidence would get
rattled when trailing at the
end of a game or in the second half. I am seeing the
mentality change a bit in a
positive direction of where
we are trying to go with this
program. I think this was an
opportunity for the kids to
recognize the past is the past
and you need to keep plugging away and we can win
those close games.”
DeSart added, “We brought
our turnover ratio down a bit,
which obviously is a key element on winning ball games.
Hannah Wentzlaff had a huge
game for us. With our lack of
depth and playing experience
we have really needed Hannah to step up big time for
us.”
Lakeview 79
Sibley East 45
The Sibley East varsity
girls basketball team stayed
within a dozen points at halftime and then lost to Lakeview 79-45 during the championship game of the Home
Town Bank Holiday Basket-
ball Tournament at Redwood
Falls on Friday afternoon,
Dec. 30.
“There are teams that plain
and simple outmatch us in
every area and Lakeview certainly was one of those
teams,” said Sibley East head
coach Jim DeSart. “It was a
good experience for our program to play a talented team.
Sure, winning ball games is a
pretty high priority, but I
want the kids pushed to play
very good teams. It leads into
improving as players and individuals. We did not back
down. The kids worked hard
and very easily could of laid
down and lost confidence.
We didn’t and fought hard till
the final buzzer.”
Junior Taylor Brinkman
and sophomore Rachel Rettmann topped the Lady
Wolverines with nine points
apiece. Junior Morgan
Stearns and senior Hannah
Wentzlaff netted seven and
six points respectively while
freshman McKenzie Latzke
had five points. Junior
Alexandra Stock scored four
points while junior Taylor
Perschau and sophmore Sydney Schott hooped two points
each. Freshman Lexy Stock
added one point.
Wentzlaff also contributed
nine rebounds, six assists and
three
blocked
shots.
Rettmann added eight boards
and four assists.

A surprise for automobile
owners this year will be an increase in the cost of their license, even on cars purchased as
far back as 1928. This is due to
the increase in price of new cars.
Under a law passed by the last
legislature, the automobile department is authorized to increase license fees on cars purchased as far back as the minimum.
The skating rink was the center of recreational activities during the past few weeks. Practically every child old enough to
skate made use of the rink
which is sponsored by the village dads and PTA. Mr. Schneider, local electrician, installed a
powerful spotlight on the rink
and also a light in the warming
house, which now makes the
rink fit for night skating.

from the cold.
Mayor Kanne informs us that

a part of the state highway running through town and the
County Board has appropriated
$300 for the same to be spent
the coming year.
The first loads of ice were

quality and about 18 inches
thick.
