Sibley County will be a
test site for DigitalTown
By Amy Newsom
Correspondent
The Sibley County Board,
during its regular meeting on
Tuesday morning, April 12,
approved a five-year contract
with DigitalTown, an online
marketplace that plans to provide Amazon type services in
Sibley County.
The new DigitalTown site
will be a one-stop shop for
people in Sibley County.
When residents sign up for a
DigitalTown account they
will be able to search for
things to do and places to
shop in the town they are in.
For example, if people are in
Arlington, when they pull up
the DigitalTown site they will
be able to search Arlington
businesses and amenities, as
well as city information.
Rob Monster, CEO of DigitalTown, also stated at a recent informational meeting
that users will eventually be
able to place orders at local
restaurants and order items
from local businesses and
have them delivered. Promoting local businesses and
offering delivery will help
with competition from larger
cities and big box stores.

Pinske will seek re-election to County Board
By Kurt Menk
Editor
Arlington resident Bill
Pinske, the incumbent Second District County Commissioner, announced this
week that he will file for another four-year term when
filings open on Tuesday,
May 17. Pinske also said
this will be his final term.
Pinske represents the City
of Arlington, Arlington
Township and Kelso Town-
ship. He is the senior member of the County Board and
will be completing his 14th
year as a county commissioner.
He has served three terms
as chairperson of the County Board. Pinske has also
served on numerous Sibley
County committees. In addition, he has also been a
member of several joint
powers boards and has held
leadership roles on these
boards.
Pinske said that without a
doubt the biggest issue facing Sibley County, and most
local government entities,
are budget issues.
“The state and federal
government continually cut
back on funding to local
government, but will not
end unfunded mandates.
Sibley County has worked
hard to control spending and
still provide the services
that the people of Sibley
County need.”
Pinske is proud that Sibley County has a strong financial position and said he
will work hard to keep it
that way. People want common sense leadership and he
will continue to do just that.
People who have any
concerns about county issues are welcome to contact
him.

Philip A. Keithahn, Chief
Financial Official of the Minnesota School of Osteopathic
Medicine, requested a letter
of support from the Sibley
County Board.
The new medical school
will be a $100 million project
and privately funded. Keithahn stated that he will also
be requesting letters of support from the Sibley County

Committee and Public Health
and Human Services. Keithahn stated that they will be
asking the City of Gaylord
for $4 million in Tax Increment Financing (TIF) for renovations to the old Sibley
East school building and possibly later for different parts
of the project. TIF is a
method of financing public
costs associated with a private development. Local
governments can use future
property tax revenue to finance infrastructure costs.

Henderson flooding study, Highway 19
bridge detour topic of April 19 meeting
The City of Henderson and
the Minnesota Department of
Transportation are co-hosting
a meeting on the status of a
study to determine if mitigating impacts of flooding on
area highways are feasible
and to share information on
the Highway 19 railroad
bridge project east of Henderson and related detour starting in May.
The two-part meeting, set
for Tuesday, April 19 in the
Henderson
Community
Building, 600 Main Street,
will begin with a presentation
at 6:30 p.m. on the flooding
feasibility study and be followed by an open house from
7 p.m. to 8 p.m. on the Highway 19 railroad bridge replacement and detour.
MnDOT, at the request of
the City of Henderson, is performing flood modeling to
analyze flooding impacts to
area roadways and determine
alternatives to mitigate future
flooding impacts. At this
time, no funding has been
identified for constructing
flood mitigation improvements, but this preliminary
work is the first step towards
identifying a preferred flood
mitigation alternative.
MnDOT is also set to replace the Highway 19 bridge
over the Union Pacific railroad east of Henderson in
2016. This will require a detour, which may begin as
early as May 2 and will be in
place until November and
consists of Highways 93 and
169. Impacted businesses and
residents will be encouraged
to come to the open house to
learn more about the project
and have their concerns addressed.
Zenith Tech, Incorporated
of Waukesha, Wis., has received the award for replacing the Highway 19 railroad
bridge with a bid of
$5,241,732. For project information and the detour map,

Law clerk is fatally
shot in St. Paul
Our View: Killing could have been avoided if
Minnesota had tougher laws for violent criminals
It happens all the time in Minnesota. A senseless crime is
committed that could have been avoided if the Gopher state
had tougher laws and more severe punishment for violent
criminals.
A good example is the murder which happened in St. Paul
on Thursday, April 7. Ryan D. Petersen fatally shot a law
clerk six times in the stomach because he was reportedly
upset with how his case was being handled and could not
reach his attorney.
Petersen, 37, St. Paul, is no first-time offender. He has a
long and violent rap sheet. His past convictions include
drive-by shooting, second-degree assault, carrying a pistol
without a permit, first-degree damage to property, aiding and
abetting in the sale of narcotics, fleeing police in a motor vehicle, drunken driving and disorderly conduct, according to
court records.
What is more shocking than the actual murder is the fact
that this man was free in society and not sitting in a prison
cell somewhere. There are many people currently doing time
in jails and prisons across Minnesota who have done far less
than this repeat violent criminal.
The Minnesota State Legislature needs to step up and seriously look at the current system because, for whatever reason, it is not working. One solution is to build more prisons
which cost a lot of money to construct and operate. Violent
crimes, however, also cost money in the form of medical expenses and personal property and are devastating to the innocent victims. Another solution is to reduce sentences for individuals who commit lesser crimes to make space for the more
violent criminals.
The most important task politicians have is to keep Minnesotans safe. Minnesota, at the current time, is not safe
when these violent criminals are out walking the streets.

Beyond transparency, we need accountability
By Lee H. Hamilton
Over more than three decades in
Congress, I had the chance to question a lot of federal officials. Most
of the time I wasn’t after anything
dramatic — I just wanted to understand who was responsible for certain decisions. Want to know how
often I got a straight answer? Almost never.
It was easily one of the most frustrating aspects of trying to ensure
robust oversight of the government.
Our representatives’ job, after all, is
to help make government work better. And you can’t do that if you
don’t know whom to hold accountable for important decisions. I don’t
want to be unfair to officials in the
executive branch, many of whom
are dedicated public servants who
work long hours to serve the rest of
us. But they have raised to an art
form the ability to dodge responsibility.
This is a problem. Accountability
is essential to good governance. I’m
not just talking about “transparency”
— that is, citizens’ ability to know
what’s being done in our name.
That’s important, but equally important is holding accountable those
who made the decision to do it: ensuring that they are accountable to
policy-makers, adhere to their obligations, follow the law, and that
their actions are appropriate and responsive to the needs of the country.
This may be part and parcel of
good governing, but it’s elusive. Accountability requires that officials
step up and take responsibility for
their decisions, and not try to shift
that responsibility to others or to
some ill-defined group. It requires
unambiguous performance standards, clear codes of ethics, timely
reporting, and acceptance of responsibility, especially with regard to
budget or spending decisions.
It’s sustained by procedures that
encourage responsible stewardship
of public funds and a focus on correcting inefficiencies and poor performance. And above all, it rests on
robust oversight and review of officials’ performance, not only within
the executive branch, but also by
Congress and the media.
So how do we get there?
The first step is to make information available to the public, especially when it comes to budgeting. Government performance rests on how it
spends the public’s money.
Yet making sure that people see
and hear what government is doing
only promotes transparency. It’s taking the next step, and ensuring that
there’s a clear command and control
structure, that promotes accountability. Without clarity on who’s in
charge of what and who’s responsible for which decisions, it becomes
too easy for officials to remain
unanswerable for their actions.
Clear lines of authority mean
nothing unless the deciding officials
are identified and measured against
what actually takes place. No official, in other words, should be without accountability for his or her decisions, which means that executive
agencies and Congress alike need to
perform regular and robust oversight. Regular audits focused on inefficiencies, waste, and poor performance are critical. Officials need
to give a full account of what they
do and the decisions they make.
As a nation, we face a growing
issue on this front when it comes to
federal contractors — that is, the
private workforce doing jobs for
federal agencies. The government itself doesn’t know how many contract employees it has, but the Washington Post reported last year that
federal spending on contracts grew
87 percent — or about 5 percent a
year — between 2000 and 2012.
This is a problem because it creates
an accountability vacuum. There are
very few mechanisms for holding
contractors responsible for their errors, abuses and missteps.
Which is why I noted above that
the media is as important as Congress and internal government overseers. We as citizens depend on the
media to tell us what’s going on in
the entire system: within the bureaucracy, in the behavior of contractors,
and among legislators who ought to
be overseeing both but often don’t.
This is a key public responsibility,
and the press needs to be staffed and
have access to the resources to do a
good job — which, these days, is increasingly rare.
Accountability, in other words, is
key to good government. All I wanted to know in those congressional
hearings was who made the decision
about the public’s business. Is that
too much to ask?

Football great Will Smith and mental illness
By Glenn Mollette
The murder of New Orleans football great Will Smith by Cardell
Hayes is tragic. At this point we
have not heard all that happened
with a car accident that turned into
Hayes shooting Smith six times and
also Smith’s wife.
You probably know by now that
Hayes sued the city of New Orleans
in 2005 after police killed his dad
Anthony Hayes. His dad was shot
nine times by NOPD officers after
he reportedly lunged at one of the
officers with a knife. Hayes and his
sister later sued the city of New Orleans and settled for an undisclosed
sum.
Ironically Smith was having dinner with one of the NOPD officers
earlier on this same evening, Billy
Ceravolo, who was involved in
shooting Hayes’ father in 2005.
Initial reports believe the most recent shooting had nothing to do with
the 2005 shooting and that this was
an accident that turned into road

rage.
Was Hayes bitter, resentful with
caustic feelings toward the NOPD?
Why would we think otherwise? Of
course he was. Regardless if his father lunged at one of the police with
a knife they still killed his daddy.
Hayes believed that the officers
could have better handled his dad on
that day with a stun gun but that the
altercation did not have to end up
lethal, according to the lawsuit that
was filed and settled.
While a dollar figure is unknown
to the settlement it is reportedly believed that Hayes and his sister received a significant amount. This
doesn't take the place of a daddy nor
does it resolve mental issues.
Was Cardell Hayes a loose cannon driving the streets of New Orleans with a gun? This could have
been anybody who had ruffled his
feathers, got in his way or had a disagreement with him. On this day,
very sadly, it was football great Will
Smith.

Principal’s Note Pad
Testing season at Minnesota Public Schools
By Mari Lu Martens
SE Elementary Principal
The month of April is “testing season” at Minnesota
Public Schools. We have just
finished up the ACCESS test
that assesses our English
Language Learners on their
English Language proficiency, as well as their proficiency in reading and math. This
assessment is given to
Kindergarten through 12
graders who have been identified as English language
learners.
In addition to this assessment, all students in grades 38 will take the Minnesota
Comprehensive Assessment
tests in reading and math,
grade 5 and 8 and high school
will take a state science test.
Grade 10 also takes the reading test, while grade 11 takes
the math test.
Testing is used in schools
to measure student achievement. The Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments
(MCA) are the state tests that
help districts measure student
progress toward Minnesota’s
academic standards and also
meet federal and state legislative requirements.
Students do not pass or fail
the reading, mathematics, or
science tests. Since the tests
measure student performance
relative to the Minnesota Academic Standards, each student receives a score that falls
in one of four achievement
levels: Does Not Meet the
Standards, Partially Meets the
Standards, Meets the Standards, and Exceeds the Standards. The assessments are
all taken on line.

Minnesota fishing facts
Here are some facts about
Minnesota fishing in anticipation of the 2016 fishing opener, which is Saturday, May
14.
Anglers and Waters
• There are about 1.4 million licensed anglers in Minnesota.
• About 500,000 people are
expected to fish on Minnesota’s opening day of the walleye and northern pike season,
Saturday, May 14.
• Minnesota has 11,842
lakes, 5,400 of which are
considered fishing lakes.
There are over 18,000 miles
of fishable rivers and streams,
including 3,800 miles of trout
streams.
• Average annual expenditure per angler in Minnesota
is about $1,500.
• Although not every kind
of fish lives everywhere, 162
species of fish can be found
in Minnesota waters.
Participation and
the Economy
• Fishing contributes $2.4
billion to the state’s economy
in direct retail sales, ranking
Minnesota third in the nation
for angler expenditures.
• Fishing supports nearly
35,500 Minnesota jobs.
• Minnesota ranks second
in resident fishing participation at 32 percent, second
only to Alaska.
• Most resident anglers are
from urban areas. However, a
higher percentage of people
living in rural Minnesota fish
compared to the percentage
of people living in urban
areas who fish.
• Males account for 65 percent of fishing license holders. Females account for 35
percent.
• Significantly more time is
spent fishing on lakes than on
rivers and streams.
• The average Minnesota
angler spends 15 days fishing
each year.
• Walleye are the most
sought-after fish in Minnesota, followed by northern pike
and muskie combined, then
panfish, bass, crappie and
trout.
Spring turkey hunting opened Wednesday

Sibley East Girls Softball
The Sibley East varsity girls softball team,
due to inclement weather, has played only
one game prior to Tuesday, April 12. Senior
Rachel Sorenson was the pitcher in Sibley
East’s first game which was a 7-5 loss to St.
Clair. Sibley East will host Norwood Young
America in Minnesota River Conference action at 5 p.m. Thursday, April 14. The Lady
Wolverines will also host Glencoe-Silver Lake
in non-conference action at 4:30 p.m. Friday,
April 15. Sibley East is directed by head coach
Stephanie Schultz. The Lady Wolverines play
their home games at the Gaylord JC Park. The
B-squad is coached by Rod Tollefson while the
C-squad is coached by Whitney Husfeldt.
With the benefit of expanded spring turkey hunting opportunities in their favor, an
estimated 42,000 hunters will
take to Minnesota’s fields and
forests between Wednesday,
April 13, and the end of May,
aiming to bag a wild turkey.
“We’re looking forward to
this season when hunters will
try out regulations that give
them more time and options to
hunt turkeys, get outside and
enjoy springtime,” said Steve
Merchant, DNR wildlife populations program manager
with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
Under the new regulations,
turkey hunting time periods
will be longer, all will include
weekends, and more time periods will be available to each
hunter. The season includes
five one-week time periods
followed by one longer time
period ending on Tuesday,
May 31. Previously, there
were eight time periods, and
not all included weekends.

Senior Travis Schmidt
tossed a three-hitter as the
visiting Sibley East varsity
boys baseball team blanked
Mayer Lutheran 4-0 in Minnesota River Conference action on Monday afternoon,

tance on the hill for the win,
also struck out five batters.
He did not issue a walk.
The Wolverines scored two
runs in each of the first and
fourth innings during the victory.
Senior Dylan Pauly contributed two singles as Sibley
East collected seven hits in
the win. Seniors Nick
Doetkott and Paul Glisczinski, juniors Zach Utendorfer
and Seth Fredin, and Schmidt
also collected one single
each.
Fredin had two stolen bases
while Doetkott swiped one
bag.
The Wolverines, 1-0 in the
MRC and 2-0 overall, will
host Norwood Young Ameri-
ca in conference play at 5
p.m. Thursday, April 14. Sibley East will also host Glencoe-Silver Lake in non-conference action at 4:30 p.m.
Friday, April 15. In addition,
Sibley East will compete in
the Lake City Baseball Tournament on Saturday, April 16.

Sibley East sophomore

“Gavin was asked to do
everything for a very young

Wolverine team,” said Sibley
East head coach Dan Meier.
“He put forth one hundred
percent effort each night and
is an outstanding leader in
school. He is very deserving
of placement on this elite
group of young men.”
He is the son of Jason and
Rhonda Bates, Gaylord.
Sibley East senior Collin

Honorable

Awards
The MRC coaches named

and Ben Kelvington, Scott
West; as their Most Valuable
Wrestlers.
Darren Ripley and Jerold
Stauffacher, Scott West, were
named as the MRC Wrestling
Coaches of the Year.
The bag limit remains one
bearded turkey.
Hunters who don’t bag a
turkey during their first time
period will be able to hunt the
last time period using their
original license. Hunters who
hunt a second time during the
last time period will need to
hunt in the same zone that
they hunted in during their
first hunt period.
In another change, archers
will be able to hunt the entire
season and in any zone from
when the first time period begins on April 13, through the
end of the last one on May 31.
Hunters must choose between
a firearms or archery turkey
hunting license.
Firearms hunters who wanted to hunt either of the first
two time periods applied for
licenses through a lottery system; surplus licenses became
available in early March for
remaining spots in the first
two seasons.
Hunters are reminded that
turkeys may not be taken with
the aid of an electronic device,
including the use of any remote-controlled decoy. However, an electronic hearing aid
or other device designed to
enhance hearing, electronic
sights that self-illuminate but
that do not cast rays of light,
and rangefinders may be used.
Public Process
The changes in the spring
turkey season came about following a public process, informed by data from a 2014
statewide survey of adult
turkey hunters and four “Talking Turkey” dialogue sessions
that took place across the
state.
“We heard that while many
hunters wanted these changes,
there were some concerns
about crowding, so we’ll be
listening to feedback after this
season to see if any adjustments need to be made to the
season structure,” Merchant
said.

Sibley County restructuring committees
By Amy Newsom
Correspondent
The Sibley County Board,
during its regular meeting on
Tuesday morning, April 12,
appointed County Commissioners Bobbie Harder and
Joy Cohrs to the restructuring
committee which will consist
of three county staff members, three department heads,
and two commissioners.
The committee will meet to
examine the county departments, make a recommendation on which county departments and services should be
included in the restructuring
plan, and how those departments and services can be re-
structured. The committee
will have until Nov. 1 to get
their recommendations back
to County Administrator
Roxy Traxler. Looking into
ways to restructure departments and services is a 2016
county goal.
Lease Proposal
Sibley County Board members voted unanimously to
moved forward in the process
to submit a lease proposal to
USDA for the Farm Service
Agency (FSA) and the Natural Resources Conservation
Service (NRCS) offices.
Sibley County has to work
very quickly on the large fed-
eral application which is due
back to the USDA by May 9.
The proposal will have to include building plan and cost
estimates that Sibley County
is not able to do in-house so
the County Board voted to
contract with Contegrity
Group, Little Falls, for construction estimates and schedules, and Vetter Johnson Architects, Plymouth, for preliminary architectural designs.
Road Projects
The County Board awarded
the contract for the 2016 bituminous seal coat project to
Asphalt Surface Technologies
Corporation, St. Cloud, for
$581,649.61. This came in
31.78 percent under the engineer ’s
estimate
of
$852,583.08.
The County Board also
awarded the bituminous overlay project to Knife River
Corporation – North Central,
which is located in Sauk
Rapids. Knife River Corporation
came
in
at
$1,878,560.16 which is 22.43
percent under the engineer’s
estimate of $2,421,697.52
and the lowest of the six bids
received.
MMPA distributed generation facility breaks ground, adding to
power generation portfolio for Arlington and other communities
A 46MW distributed generation power facility being
built by the Minnesota Municipal Power Agency will
soon be rising on the eastern
edge of Shakopee, near Canterbury Park. Shakopee Energy Park will add electric generation capacity to MMPA
communities, including Arlington.
MMPA has broken ground
on the six-acre site and expects the facility, fueled by
natural gas, to be operational
next year. MMPA is the
wholesale power supplier to
Shakopee Public Utilities, as
well as 11 other municipal
member communities.
MMPA’s management partner, Avant Energy of Minneapolis, is managing the facility’s design and construction.
“MMPA is committed to
adding local, efficient resources to the Agency’s generation portfolio,” said Avant
Energy’s Vice President of
Consulting and Development,
Kelsey Dillon.
“The Agency sees significant advantages to the project, including local interconnection to avoid high voltage
transmission, increased local
reliability of supply and sup-
porting business development
in our member communities,”
Dillon said.
John Crooks, Shakopee
Public Utilities Manager and
MMPA board member, said
his community is enthusiastic
about the project.
“We very much like having
this generating facility in
Shakopee because we see
great advantage in having
local production and distribution,” Crooks said. “We’re a
growing community and
we’re pleased to have this opportunity to offer increased
electric reliability to our customers.”
Recent large, high-profile
additions to Shakopee’s business base include Amazon
and Shutterfly.
Crooks added that hot
water recovered from the natural gas-fired reciprocating
engines will be another important economic development tool for the Shakopee
area. Further, he said, the facility will support the MMPA
mission to provide competitively-priced, reliable power
to its customers.
The power from Shakopee
Energy Park will become an
important component of
MMPA’s diversified portfolio
of generation resources,
which includes facilities like
Faribault Energy Park, fueled
by natural gas and its newest
renewable energy facilities –
Oak Glen Wind Farm near
Blooming Prairie and the
Hometown BioEnergy facility in Le Sueur.
“MMPA is committed to
being a good neighbor in host
communities,” Crooks said.
“We are excited that in addition to power generation, the
facility will offer energy education for students and
Shakopee residents – providing a community asset for
years to come.”
Other municipal utility
members of MMPA are in
Anoka, Arlington, Brownton,
Buffalo, Chaska, East Grand
Forks, Elk River, Le Sueur,
North St. Paul, Olivia, and
Winthrop.
