The Minnesota Department
of Natural Resources
(MnDOT) has completed the
traffic signal deactivation
evaluation that was started in
April at the intersection of
Highway 5 and Main Street,
according to a news release
from MnDOT.
The evaluation, MnDOT
said, was necessary to deter-
mine the feasibility of remov-
ing the existing traffic signal
and replacing it with a two-
way stop (through-stop con-
trol.)
Throughout the evaluation
period, traffic operations at
the intersection were moni-
tored closely by the Arlington
Police Department, MnDOT,
and Sibley County. During
the evaluation, no crashes or
close calls were observed,
and motorist compliance and
acceptance of the revised
traffic control has been excel-
lent. Due to the success of
the evaluation, MnDOT will
remove the traffic signal on
Tuesday July 9 (weather per-
mitting). All signs currently
present at the intersection
will remain, and motorists on
Main Street will need to con-
tinue heeding stop signs be-
fore entering the intersection,
when it is clear. Highway 5
motorists will not need to
stop at the intersection, ex-
cept for when pedestrians are
crossing.
The signal is being re-
moved to improve traffic
flow and safety at the inter-
section. An earlier MnDOT
study determined that current
and forecasted traffic is not
high enough to warrant the
signal at Highway 5 and
Main Street that has been in
place for at least 30 years, ac-
cording to MnDOT records.
Replacing the signal with
through-stop control is ex-
pected to reduce the frequen-
cy and severity of crashes,
based on crash records from
other urban through-stop con-
trolled intersections on the
state highway system, with
similar volumes of traffic. It
is believed that through-stop
controlled intersections have
fewer crashes because mo-
torists are required to be at-
tentive and actively look for a
safe gap in traffic, rather than
relying on a traffic signal in-
dication that does not tell the
motorist if it is safe to enter
the intersection.
In addition to expected
crash reduction benefits, the
removal of the signal will re-
sult in cost savings to both
the City of Arlington and
MnDOT.

and Main Street in Arlington

Tim Schellhammer recently
began his duties as the new
senior high principal at the
Sibley East Senior High
School.
The Sibley East School
Board, during a meeting on
Monday night, May 13, voted
4-0 and approved a motion to
offer the senior high principal
position to Schellhammer
who accepted the offer on the
following morning.
Schellhammer was born in
Chatfield. He is a 2000 grad-
uate of the Chatfield High
School where he participated
in football, basketball, base-
ball, band, fall play, one-act
play and spring play.
Schellhammer is also a
2005 graduate of the Univer-
sity of South Dakota in Ver-
million where he received a
Bachelor of Science Degree
in Education to teach 5-12
mathematics. He also played
defensive end for the football
team there during his last
three years.
In the spring of 2006,
Schellhammer taught math
and coached basketball at
Chamberlain, South Dakota.
During the past seven
years, Schellhammer taught
9-12 math at the Minnetonka
High School. In addition, he
coached football on the varsi-
ty staff for two years and on
the sophomore staff for three
years.
Schellhammer and his
wife, Katie, were married two
years ago. The couple has a
daughter, Lola, who is 4 1/2
months old.
“Going through the inter-
view process, I heard some of
the highlights and strengths
of the district,” said Schell-
hammer. “One of the
strengths is the teachers and
staff. The teachers and staff
are dedicated. I’ve been en-
couraged by that. I’m also ex-
cited about the up-to-date
technology.”
Schellhammer is also very
pleased that he has the ability
to tap the experience of for-
mer Senior High Principal
Jim Amsden who now serves
as the new superintendent.
Schellhammer can also
draw a lot of similarities be-
tween Chatfield and Sibley
East.
“I’m excited to be here and
excited to meet and attend the
various events in the commu-
nities this summer,” said
Schellhammer.

It took a while to decide,
but the Sibley County Com-
missioners voted not to enter
a marketing agreement pro-
posal to utilize a Coast2Coast
Rx drug prescription card in-
volving user discounts and
county rebates at the meeting
on Tuesday, June. 25.
Vicki Stock, Public Health
and Human Services Direc-
tor, told the board at the May
14 meeting that the prescrip-
tion card offering discounted
rates would be used by the
public and jail inmates.
Stock said not only is there
no cost to the county to im-
plement this program, the
county would receive a small
amount of rebate money.
The pharmacy discount
card was endorsed by the As-
sociation of Minnesota Coun-
ties (AMC) and is used by
other counties. Stock said the
prescription card is for people
who are under insured, but
anybody can use it.
After County Commission-
er Bill Pinske asked about the
impact on the small drug
stores in Sibley County, the
topic was tabled until reac-
tion could be received by
local pharmacies. At the June
11 board meeting, there was
still no clarity on the impact
of the card locally and it was
tabled again.
County Administrator Matt
Jaunich presented informa-
tion received from the three
local drug stores at the June
25 meeting and asked the
board to decide one way or
another.
Stock had talked to the
three county pharmacies and
got mixed reviews. First
Choice Pharmacy in Gaylord
and Henderson ran some test
claims that showed the dis-
count card in general takes
off between five and six dol-
lars per order. It was thought
the card would apply to few
people and the store would
not encourage use of the card.
In Arlington, Les Morreim
at Morreim Pharmacy
thought the program would
benefit uninsured people, or
people that have insurance
but a very high deductible.
The store has received dis-
count cards from other com-
panies and has no issues.
Stock said Ellen Anderson
of Guidepoint Pharmacy in
Winthrop said at times pa-
tients are better off paying the
cash price rather than using a
discount card. Anderson also
saw a story in Consumer Re-
ports magazine that said the
discount card program can be
a source of identity theft. The
store would go along with the
program, but not promote it.
County Commissioner
Harold Pettis said he was at a
recent South Country Health
Alliance meeting and learned
Waseca County did not opt
for the discount card pro-
gram.
County Commissioner Jim
Nytes said he was definitely
against it. He said it will hurt
the bottom line of the small
local business.
The vote not to use the pro-
gram was unanimous.

drug prescription discount card

The Sibley East School
Board held a work session,
prior to the regular board
meeting on Monday, June 17.
The purpose of the meeting
was to discuss the proposed
increase to the district’s activ-
ity fees. The increase was
proposed at the May 20 meet-
ing, but tabled for further dis-
cussion.
The proposed increase of
$5 to $10 per category is due
to an increase of $1,000 in
the athletic contract with
Ridgeview Medical Center.
The increase in the contract
is for the required ImPACT
concussion testing.
The ImPACT testing had
been paid for by grant money
over the last couple of years.
That grant money has run
out.
The proposed activity fees
for varsity sports (grades 9-
12) would increase from
$100 to $110, junior high
sports (grades 7-8) and cheer-
leading from $80 to $90.
The fee for other activities,
such as plays, DECA,
Knowledge Bowl, Speech,
Jazz Band and Swing Choir,
would increase from $25 to
$30.
The activity fees for stu-
dents that qualify for free and
reduced lunches would in-
crease by five dollars.
Students qualifying for re-
duced lunches would pay a
fee of $75 for varsity sports
and $60 for junior high sports
and cheerleading.
Fees for students in the free
lunch category would be $40
for varsity sports and $35 for
junior high and cheerleading.
There is no reduced fee
schedule for activities.
The family maximum for
athletics would increase $50
to $450 excluding any fees
paid for activities.
During the meeting, the
board, along with Activity
Directory Randy Walsh,
looked at the fees for other
schools in the Minnesota
River Conference, and partic-

Many of the laws passed in
the past Minnesota legislative
session took effect July 1, in-
cluding more money for all-
day kindergarten, higher edu-
cation and millions more for
city and county budgets.
Some of that money comes
from a new tax rate on the
highest incomes and a $1.60-
per-pack cigarette tax in-
crease.
Some of the key changes,
courtesy of House Informa-
tion Services:
Education
An estimated $15.7 billion
on K-12 over two years, an
increase of $485 million.
About half of the new money
will go on the basic school
funding formula, another
$134 million will fund op-
tional all-day kindergarten
statewide starting in the fall
of 2014. Special education
will get an additional $40
million.
An end to high-stakes state
graduation exams, but now
students will take, but not
have to achieve a minimum
score on, a new set of tests in
reading, writing and math.
Students in grade 11 will take
a nationally recognized col-
lege entrance exam such as
the ACT.
Employment &
Economic
Development
Adds $30 million to the
Minnesota Investment Fund,
for loans to assist expanding
businesses. An additional $24
million for a job creation
fund to help businesses make
capital investments and create
jobs in the state. The Min-
nesota Film and TV Board
gets $10 million to offer fi-
nancial incentives, such as
production cost rebates.
Environment &
Agriculture
$20.4 million for the Agri-
cultural Growth, Research
and Innovation program to
develop new markets for
Minnesota farmers, facilitate
livestock operations and pro-
vide for biofuel and other en-
ergy development including
renewable energy projects for
rural residents;
$2 million for the state’s
county fairs to enhance arts
access and education to pre-
serve and promote Minneso-
ta’s history and cultural her-
itage;
$300,000 to protect polli-
nator habitat.
Health &
Human Services
An overall cut of $50 mil-
lion over the next two years,
but still has increases in serv-
ices and wages for some who
recently have seen cuts to
programs and paychecks.
Nursing homes will receive a
5 percent funding increase,
with the majority earmarked
for employee pay raises. Per-
sonal care attendants will re-
ceive a 1 percent increase,
with more available based on
the quality of service they
provide
Employers with 50 or more
employees who purchase in-
surance through the individ-
ual market must include
autism spectrum disorder
coverage in their policies.
Higher
Education
An increase of $250 mil-
lion over two years, bringing
the total to $2.8 billion. A
two-year tuition freeze for
resident undergraduates at the
University of Minnesota and
for all undergraduates at the
Minnesota State Colleges and
Universities system.
Legacy Funds
A total of $496.1 million to
fund dozens of arts, parks,
trails and natural resources
projects:
Clean Water Fund —
$194.9 million;
Arts and Cultural Heritage
Fund — $115.9 million;
Outdoor Heritage Fund —
$100.05 million; and
Parks and Trails Fund —
$85.1 million.
Additionally, the Minneso-
ta State Arts Board will re-
ceive $42.6 million to support
artists and arts organizations.

The Minnesota Municipal
Power Agency (MMPA) an-
nounces that Elk River Mu-
nicipal Utilities (ERMU) is
becoming the 12th member
of MMPA.
MMPA is comprised of
municipal utilities in Anoka,
Arlington, Brownton, Buffa-
lo, Chaska, East Grand Forks,
Le Sueur, North St. Paul,
Olivia, Shakopee, Winthrop
and now Elk River.
MMPA’s electrical power
load increases by approxi-
mately 20 percent with the
addition of ERMU. The
agency will begin providing
wholesale power to ERMU
on October 1, 2018 under a
Power Sales Agreement that
runs through 2050.
Troy Adams,
ERMU’s General Manager,
said choosing to partner with
MMPA was a careful process.
“We spent five years looking
at our future supplier partner.
As a public power municipal
utility, we sought competitive
rates, and we wanted to be
aligned with other like-mind-
ed utilities,” he said.
Adams said other factors
leading Elk River to select
MMPA are the agency’s mod-
ern facilities and innovative
renewable energy program, as
well as ERMU having a seat
on the MMPA Board of Di-

member utility. MMPA
member cities have common

Letter To The Editor
Like them or not, roundabouts are becoming a trend in
Minnesota and it looks like they are here to stay.
The purpose of roundabouts is to create safer intersections
and increase the flow of traffic. There are approximately 115
roundabouts in Minnesota to date and more are on the way.
Studies on roundabouts show that there is a 39 percent de-
crease in all crashes and an 89 percent decrease in fatal crash-
es throughout the state, according to the Minnesota Depart-
ment of Transportation.
Roundabouts can also handle high levels of traffic with less
delay than most stop signs or signals The tight curves slow
traffic so entering and exiting are easier and more efficient.
Where roundabouts replace signals, idling decreases which
reduces vehicle emissions and fuel consumption by 30 per-
cent or more, according to the Minnesota Department of
Transportation.
Construction costs for roundabouts are about the same as
intersections with traffic lights, but the long-term operating
costs are lower, according to reports. The roundabouts re-
quire no electricity and are environmentally friendly.
Change does disturb and it will take time for motorists to
become more familiar with roundabouts which are becoming
more common every day. Motorists are used to stop signs and
stoplights. However, if the new method to control traffic will
save lives and increase the flow of traffic, the new change
should be embraced by all motorists.

Whether it is a cold and wet
spring, a punishing drought, or for-
eign countries unexpectedly shutting
down their markets to American
products, Minnesota farmers and
ranchers must contend with a wide
range of unpredictable variables that
can threaten their livelihood. The
U.S. Congress should not be one of
them.
Unlike the forces of Mother Na-
ture that brought us the poor plant-
ing weather this spring or the
drought this past summer, lack of
congressional action on the Farm
Bill is entirely preventable.
That’s why as a member of the
Senate Agriculture Committee I
worked with my colleagues to craft
a five-year Farm Bill that passed the
Senate with strong bipartisan sup-
port.
The Senate Farm Bill builds on
the successes of the 2008 Farm Bill,
strengthening crop insurance, elimi-
nating direct payments, reducing our
deficit by $24 billion, promoting a
strong energy title, and protecting
conservation and nutrition pro-
grams.
The Farm Bill also includes im-
portant provisions I fought for to
provide beginning farmers and
ranchers greater access to crop in-
surance and more land for grazing,
and to help protect pork and poultry
producers from catastrophic losses.
I also worked with North Dakota
Senators John Hoeven and Heidi
Heitkamp to boost agricultural re-
search, address the backlog of Rural
Development loans, support the
Rural Energy for America Program,
and enhance regional conservation
efforts like those in the Red River
Valley.
To open up new markets to Min-
nesota producers, the Farm Bill in-
cludes my provision instructing the
U.S. Departments of Agriculture and
Transportation to evaluate rural
transportation, including “captive
shipping,” to ensure that farmers
and rural businesses can move their
products as quickly and affordably
as possible.
Last year America exported $136
billion in farm products resulting in
a trade surplus of $32 billion. As the
sixth largest agricultural exporting
state, Minnesota contributed more
than $6.8 billion in 2012.
Finally, the new Farm Bill pro-
vides something very simple to Min-
nesota farmers and rural communi-
ties: certainty. It puts an end to the
unpredictable and volatile federal
farm policy that currently exists
without a strong five-year plan.
This is the second time in the last
354 days that the Senate has put for-
ward a long-term Farm Bill that
helps producers, consumers and our
entire economy. Last year, the Sen-
ate passed the bill, but the House of
Representatives failed to act.
I have heard from countless Min-
nesota farmers and ranchers who
need the support and certainty that
this bill provides, and if the House
fails to act again, they do so at their
own risk.
Congressman Collin Peterson has
been working hard to move the
Farm Bill forward in the U. S.
House, and I will work with him as
he pushes the House leadership to
take up and pass a five-year Farm
Bill.
Minnesota farmers are some of
the hardest workers in the United
States. They produce the highest
quality, lowest cost food in the
world, and they represent a proud
part of our state’s heritage and histo-
ry. Minnesota farmers deserve a
Farm Bill, and I will not stop fight-
ing until it is signed into law.
Coming together for Minnesota farmers
By Ken Martin
Chairman, Minnesota DFL
From balancing the state budget
in a fair and honest manner to in-
vestments in education and property
tax relief, the budget passed by Gov-
ernor Mark Dayton and the DFL-led
Legislature this session not only ful-
filled promises made during the
2012 campaign, but is a representa-
tion of the values DFL-elected offi-
cials have fought long and hard to
protect.
Unlike Republican legislators
who balanced the state budget on
the shoulders of hard-working Min-
nesotans, the DFL asked the top two
percent of Minnesotans (54,000 peo-
ple with an average salary of
$617,000 a year) to pay just 2 per-
cent more in taxes. They will now
pay rates that most Minnesotans
have paid for years. A recent poll
showed that this new tax is support-
ed by 58 percent of those polled,
showing it’s a clear winner with
Minnesotans.
With the additional revenue, Gov-
ernor Dayton and DFL legislators
made an historic investment in edu-
cation. Minnesota’s future work-
force will benefit from scholarships
for early childhood education, free
all-day kindergarten and increasing
funding for K-12 schools. Current
college students and their families
will feel the relief of a two-year tu-
ition freeze as well as an investment
in the State Grant Program. These
investments not only help students,
but help our colleges and universi-
ties to achieve better results and
graduate more students.
Democrats also restored the
Homestead Credit eliminated by Re-
publicans. This is a welcome respite
for Minnesotans whose property
taxes have gone up 86 percent in the
last decade alone.
As a Democrat, a Minnesotan,
and a father, I am proud of Governor
Dayton and DFL legislators’ work
the 2013 session. At a time when,
more often than not, campaign
promises are backed up not by ac-
tion, but by even more campaigning,
the 2013 legislature provided a re-
freshing glimpse of the enormous
change that can be effected by offi-
cials that place a priority on improv-
ing the lives of their constituents,
rather than touting party rhetoric.
Promises made, promises kept in state budget
To the Editor,
I would like to inform the com-
munity about our recent experience
with the Sibley Medical Center. We
have used the medical center for our
medical needs for many years; how-
ever, it has never been in an emer-
gency situation.
I was very impressed with the
care, concern and the medical deci-
sions that had to be made by Dr.
Bergseng, Dr. Durakovic, and their
medical staff in regard to my hus-
band’s recent illness. Because of the
life-threatening condition, my hus-
band had to be air-lifted to the Hen-
nepin County Medical Center
(HCMC) where once again we re-
ceived the same care and concern
not only for the patient but also for
the family. What would have hap-
pened had it not been only a seven
minute trip by ambulance to our
local area hospital where he could
receive expert care immediately?
We are grateful to have Sibley Med-
ical Center and their medical staff
available when we need them. Let’s
give the Sibley Medical Center our
support so that when our loved ones
are in a life/death situation they can
have quick and excellent care within
minutes.

Obituary
By Tom Steward
Watchdog Minnesota
The City of Monticello has
proposed buying out bond-
holders of the troubled mu-
nicipal Fibernet broadband
network for $5.75 million,
plus an estimated $3 million
in escrow funds, to settle an
impending class action law-
suit, Watchdog Minnesota has
learned.
The proposed settlement,
according to official docu-
ments filed online, appears to
return to investors about 25
cents to 30 cents on the dol-
lar. In exchange, bondholders
would drop all claims, includ-
ing allegations of securities
fraud and misrepresentation
related to the city’s issuance
or execution of the bonds, re-
ferred to in an “Unconfirmed
Settlement Notice” filed June
14 on the Electronic Munici-
pal Market Access website.
The city confirmed the set-
tlement in statement from
Jeff O’Neill, city administra-
tor.
“On Thursday, June 13, the
Monticello City Council ap-
proved a ‘term sheet’ provid-
ing a settlement amount and
process for addressing the
shortage of system revenue
for funding debt service on
the FiberNet revenue bond.
This term sheet was devel-
oped cooperatively with the
attorney representing bond
holders. The City of Monti-
cello looks forward to work-
ing with the bond holders in
completing related legal
processes and will continue
to operate the system for the
foreseeable future.”
Watchdog Minnesota re-
ported Friday that up to 500
investors holding $26 million
in Fibernet Monticello bonds
could lose most of their in-
vestment in the muni-net-
work, which offers high-
speed Internet, cable televi-
sion and telephone. Bill
McKenzie, an Arizona re-
tiree, bought $45, 000 in
Fibernet bonds in 2011, an in-
vestment now worth about 10
percent of the purchase price.
Fibernet has attracted far
fewer subscribers than pro-
jected, leading to a shortfall
for operating costs and debt
service on the tax-free rev-
enue bonds held by McKen-
zie and others. McKenzie had
not heard about the settle-
ment until Watchdog Min-
nesota contacted him Mon-
day.
While bondholders would
still lose most of their invest-
ment, the proposed settlement
gives them a chance to re-
coup something, as opposed
to losing it all. If more than
10 percent of bondholders opt
out of the proposal, the deal
will not be approved.
“I think there’s no option. I
don’t have any option,” said
McKenzie. “While I guess
I’m not happy, 30 cents is
better than nothing.”
Local taxpayers will pay
for the proposed settlement,
adding to at least $2.6 million
in liquor fund revenue to sub-
sidize Fibernet.
“The amount will be a gen-
eral obligation of the City,
payable either from existing
funds or funds generated by
issuing a new bond,” O”Neill
said in an email.
The Minnesota Cable
Communications Association
criticized the cost to Monti-
cello taxpayers and the pro-
priety of competing with pri-
vate broadband communica-
tions providers.
“We’re very interested to
know how this settlement is
being funded, and the city
should level with the taxpay-
ers on that question,” said
Tony Mendoza, attorney for
MCCA. “The cable industry
has always been prepared to
face competition, but allow-
ing a city to get into the busi-
ness for 25 cents on the dollar
is a huge subsidy and unfair
advantage.”
The settlement appears to
be contingent on approval
from two courts. The compli-
cated legal process would in-
volve the simultaneous filing
of a federal class action law-
suit on behalf of bondholders
and a tentative agreement on
the proposed settlement.
The settlement would
allow the city to operate
Fibernet Monticello without
further obligation to the
bondholders who financed it.
Once a highly touted national
model for local government
broadband, Fibernet has
come to symbolize the chal-
lenges of government com-
peting with private providers
in a high-tech industry.
“This has taught me a real
lesson in municipal bonds,”
said McKenzie. ”I’m very
apprehensive now about stay-
ing in the municipal bond
market.”

Green Isle resident Alex
Meeker, a senior at Central
High School in Norwood-
Young America, recently at-
tended the 65th Annual Le-
gion Boys State held at
Southwest Minnesota State
University in Marshall.
Meeker was sponsored by the
Green Isle American Legion
Post #408.
Minnesota American Le-
gion Boys State is a week-
long experience of learning
about Minnesota government
at the local, county and state
levels by “doing.” It is a
week of intensive study and
involvement. Every boy par-
ticipates in the process of
city, county and state govern-
ment. They are a citizen of a
city, a county and the state as
well as a member of a politi-
cal party. Meeker was a City
Council member for the City
of Duluth and was on the
Transportation Committee for
Rock County.
Highlights of the week in-
cluded speakers such as Min-
nesota Secretary of State
Mark Ritchie; past Senate
Majority Leader Dean John-
son; Representative Paul
Thissen, Speaker of the
House of Representatives;
and State Senator Mary
Kiffmeyer.
In addition to study and
learning about all levels of
government, Meeker played
trumpet in the Boys State
Band and performed on the
final evening at the Schwans
Performing Arts Theater at
Marshall High School. In ad-
dition, he participated in a
softball tournament for the
Boys State attendees.
Alex is the son of Todd and
Connie Meeker, Green Isle,
and the grandson of Arlene
(Meyers) Marek, Arlington.

A ceremony for the dedica-
tion of State Highway 5 from
Gaylord to Chanhassen as the
August “Augie” Mueller Memo-
rial Highway was held in Ar-
lington last Wednesday after-
noon. Well over 100 people at-
tended the dedication ceremony
on the practice football field at
the Sibley East Athletic Com-
plex along Highway 5.
Senior citizens brought along
their wedding pictures to the Ar-
lington Senior Dining Site at the
Highland Commons on Monday.
After lunch, a contest was then
held to see which person could
correctly identify the most pic-
tures. The winner was Marjorie
Ott.
Public Safety
& Judiciary
More than $100 million in
new funding, with $52 million
for the courts and $50.5 mil-
lion for public safety. Includ-
ed are salary adjustments for
Corrections Department per-
sonnel of 2 percent per year
and $2.6 million for addition-
al sex offender or chemical
dependency treatment.
State Govern-
ment
Minnesota Public Radio
gets $920,000 to buy equip-
ment and upgrades to the
AMBER Alert system;
$750,000 is appropriated each
year for the Minnesota Assis-
tance Council for Veterans, a
nonprofit that helps homeless
veterans and families.
Taxes
A new 9.8 percent top tier
for high earners that affects:
married people who file
jointly with a taxable income
of more than $250,000;
married people who file
separately with a taxable in-
come of over $125,000;
heads of household with a
taxable income of over
$200,000
single filers making over
$150,000.
State tax on a pack of ciga-
rettes will rise $1.60 to $2.83.
Part of the revenue from the
first year of the cigarette tax
increase will be used to help
fund the new stadium to
house the Minnesota Vikings,
if needed.
More backup revenue for
the stadium, if needed, will
come from closing corporate
tax loopholes, which will
raise approximately $26 mil-
lion in the first year and $20
million per year thereafter.
Local Government Aid will
increase from the current
$426 million to $507.6 mil-
lion for calendar year 2014. In

life of the Mayo
Clinic/Rochester expansion
project. The city is expected
to pay an additional $128 mil-
lion to qualify for the aid. The
state and the county or city
will also pay for up to $116
million of transit-related proj-
ects; with state aid covering
60 percent of this cost.
Transportation
The state highway budget
calls for:
Increasing state road con-
struction funding by almost
$360 million over the bienni-
um;
Increasing base appropria-
tions by $10 million annually
from the trunk highway fund
for use in a newly-established
Transportation Economic De-
velopment program.
A $5 million increase in the
base appropriation for opera-
tions and maintenance of state
roads.

Sibley East is not at the bot-
tom of the conference fee
schedule, but not at the top ei-
ther, according to Walsh.
A majority of the schools
charge different rates for dif-
ferent activities. Football at
most schools is higher than
other sports.
Most of the schools charge
around $100 per activity such
as jazz band or knowledge
bowl, where Sibley East only
charges $30.
The board had asked Walsh
about the possibility of in-
creased admission fees and/or
charging for sports like base-
ball and track that do not cur-
rently have gate fees.
Walsh said it could be a
possibility, but to charge ad-
mission for track and baseball
would require hiring staff to
work the gates. He is currently
able to get volunteers for the
gates.
He also added that most
people have season passes, so
there would be little benefit to
adding admission fees to
those events.
Board member Missy
Weber remained opposed to
the increase in activity fees.
“Parents are already
strapped, and most kids who
are in sports are also in band
and plays as well,” she said.
They are also paying for
shoes and other things needed
for a student to participate in a
sport, she added.
Weber feels the board
should focus on increasing the
number of participants, not
discourage participation with
higher fees.
During the regular meeting
later that evening, the board
voted 4-1 to approve the in-
crease in fees.
Weber voted against the in-
crease. Board member Scott
Dose was not present at the
meeting.
Concerned
Parents
Dave and Laurie Brockhoff,
during the public portion of
the meeting, expressed con-
cern over the coaching staff at
Sibley East, specifically the
varsity baseball team.
The parents said that a num-
ber of students don’t plan to
participate in baseball next
season during their senior
year.
They felt that there have
been a number of complaints
to the athletic director and
don’t feel anything has been
done to address the issues.
They asked about the re-
views for the coaches, criteria
for selecting and letting
coaches go as well as goal set-
ting for a coach each season.
They felt that the district
has to overlook person rela-
tionships of staff and do what
is best for the kids.
They talked about the
strong coaching and partici-
pation in the football and
wrestling programs.
After hearing the parents,
the board thanked them for
taking the time to attend the
board meeting.
Building Tours
The board will hold a work
session prior to the July 15th
meeting to tour the two cam-
puses with head custodian
Bob Pichelmann to go
through potential capital proj-
ects with the board.
The tour will start at 5 p.m.
at the school office in Gay-
lord. The tour of the Arlington
facility is expected to begin at
approximately 6 p.m.
The board meeting regular-
ly scheduled for 6:30 will
begin at 7 p.m. in Room 149
at the Arlington campus.

The Arlington Greys posted
a 2-0 record and won the
traveling trophy again at the
Mankato Baltics Vintage
Base Ball Festival on Satur-
day, June 29.
The Greys have won all
seven games played in
Mankato during the past three
years.
The cranks (fans) were
treated to three matches on a
beautiful afternoon for base
ball as played in 1860. The
artists (proficient players)
were able to demonstrate
their ability to strike the
onion (ball) for safeties, the
muckles (power hitters)
struck the ball deep into the
garden (outfield), and the
scouts (outfielders) made
some fine plays on the well
struck balls. The muffins
(enthusiastic but unskilled
player) made the play inter-
esting when they hit safely or
managed to catch a sky ball
(high fly ball). The ballists
(players) demonstrated base
ball of 1860’s showing it to
be a gentlemen’s game with
no disputes.
Arlington 9
Mankato 4
The Greys rallied from a 3-
0 deficit after the first inning
and defeated the Mankato
Baltics 9-4 during the open-
ing round of the Mankato
Baltics Vintage Base Ball
Festival on Saturday, June 29.
The Greys found their
game with seven aces in the
top of the fourth inning. Ar-
lington plated one run in each
of the next two frames and
cruised to the 9-4 win.
Steve “Little Bill” Pioske
sparked the Greys with a sin-
gle and two doubles. Roger
“The Preacher” Hoeben con-
tributed two singles and a
double while Mike “One
Way” Feterl and Dan “Young
Blood” Splettstoeser collect-
ed three singles each. Jake
“Louie” Lucas had a double
and belted a home run which
sailed over the walking path
in left field and bounced over
a seven-foot residential fence.
Pat “Fish” Nienaber, Jeff
“The Babe” Menk and Chad
“Part-Time” Bachman
recorded two singles apiece.
Tim “Pillowcase” Kloeckl
posted one single.
The match also featured
some fine fielding by Jim
“Yukon” Kreft in left field.
Arlington 18
Menomonie 6
The Arlington Greys
pounded out a team record 28
hits and defeated the
Menomonie Blue Caps 18-6
during the second round of
the Mankato Baltics Vintage
Base Ball Festival on Satur-
day, June 29.
The Greys, who fell behind
2-0 in the top of the second
inning, rallied for 18 unan-
swered runs.
The Blue Caps were first
organized in 2012, but did not
play their first match until
this year. Their match with
the Greys was only their
fourth one. Their “ballists”
are mostly “muffins,” but
they play with “ginger” and
know how to “leg it” when
given the opportunity.
Pat “Fish” Nienaber, Jeff
“The Babe” Menk and Jake
“Louie” Lucas sparked the
Greys with two singles each
and two doubles apiece. Tim
“Pillowcase” Kloeckl had
four singles while Chad
“Part-Time” Bachman and
Dan “Young Blood”
Splettstoeser tallied three sin-
gles each while Mike “One
Way” Feterl, Steve “Little
Bill” Pioske and Roger “The
Preacher” Hoeben had two
singles apiece.

Sibley FSA
DCP Signup Continues
The sign-up period for
DCP is still open. Producers
are encouraged to sign up for
DCP before the August 2
deadline.
The 2013 DCP program
provisions are unchanged
from 2012. Please remember
to provide all changes to your
farm records to the local FSA
office for the current crop
year before you make an ap-
pointment. If you are chang-
ing your operation entity
type, adding or dropping
cropland or farms, or adding
entities to your operation,
please notify the FSA county
office to update your file so
we can have the necessary
computer and paperwork
completed.
Contact the FSA Sibley
County Office to set up an
appointment to enroll.
Crop Certification
After spring planting, pro-
ducers should certify their
2013 acreage. Filing an accu-
rate acreage report for all
crops and land uses, includ-
ing failed acreage and pre-
vented planting acreage, can
prevent the loss of benefits
for a variety of programs.
Failed acreage must be re-
ported within 15 days of the
disaster event and before dis-
position of the crop.
The reporting of prevented
planting acreage has been ex-
tended from the 15 days after
the final planting date to July
15, 2013. Please call to set
up an appointment at 507-
237-2948, extension 2.
In addition, any existing
stands of alfalfa, mixed for-
age, grass or winter wheat
that is carried over into 2014
must be reported no later than
Nov. 15 for your 2014 crop
acreage report. Acreage re-
ports for these crops filed
after Nov. 15 will be consid-
ered late-filed and applicable
late-filed acreage reporting
fees will apply.

nizes for his hard work.
In a ceremony on Septem-
ber 29, Johnson, a long-time

“It was a lot of work, ”
Johnson admits of his time as
owner of KRBI AM and FM.
“I used to work 17 hour
days.”
