Unexpected
day off for
ML students
Students of Maple Lake
School District 881 got a surprise day off on Thursday when
problems with a sanitary sewer
line caused Superintendent
Mark Redemske to close the
schools for the day.
Its similar to a problem we
had last December, said Redemske. Then the students
were already in school. this time
Brad Neutz, our head of maintenence, noticed and called early
enough that we were able to
close before students were in.

Music sensation to
perform at St. Tims
Internationally famous music
sensation Tony DeBlois will perform in concert at St. Timothys
Church at 7 p.m., Wednesday,
October 7, and again at a school
concert on Thursday, October 8,
after 9 a.m. Mass.
All are invited to this free
concert- but plan on arriving
early, space is limited.
An autistic savant, DeBlois
was born prematurely on January 22, 1974. Weighing less than
two pounds, he had to be supplied with large amounts of oxygen which caused his blindness.
It was his mother who discovered his love of music and
bought him a toy piano at age
two. He now plays 20 instruments and knows more than
10,000 songs.
DeBlois first studied in the
Perkins School for the Blind but
in 1989 was awarded a summer
scholarship at Berklee College
of Music in Boston, Massachusetts. Later he was admitted as a
full-time student and graduated
magna cum laude on Mothers
Day in 1996.
He was the subject of the
1997 CBS made for TV Movie
of the Week, Journey of the
Heart, which was inspired by
actual events in his life. Additionally, he has appeared on two
Catholic Global Showcase Specials (2001), The Learning
Channels Uncommon Genius, Strange Science Unusual
People, and Understanding the
Mysteries of Memory. He is the
recipient of numerous awards,
among them are Boston Celtics
Hero Among Us (2003),
Chou, Ta-Kuan Cultural and Educational Foundations Global
Love of Life Award (2002),
the Faith and Family Foundation
Outstanding
Achievement
Award 2000, the coveted
Reynolds Society Achievement
Award (1996), the Foundation
for Exceptional Childrens prestigious Yes, I Can Award for
1993, and the Panasonic Sponsored, VSAarts Itzhak Perlman
Award (1992).

Sunday nights blood moon was interesting to watch as it moved
into earths shadow. I went outside about 8 p.m. and it had only
started to lose some of its edge. An hour later there was just a sliver
left and it was hidden behind some clouds, but would show itself
periodically. The moons closeness to earth made this years eclipse
more dramatic, but if you missed it there will be another one in about
15-16 years.

From scattered reports, panfish fishing is still good on Indian
Lake. Gene Wadman and his wife, Eleanor, commented about finding the sunfish not biting fast, but steady. Maybe Ill find time to get
out there later this week. I talked George Palmer into fishing on Koronis Lake Saturday, suggesting morning might be better. We left
MLabout 6 a.m. and drove in fog most of the way, not severe but
enough to slow us down. There were pickups stopped adjacent to
the highway and we assumed they were archery deer hunters. The
public hunting spot across from the kids amusement center had vehicles in every parking lot and we figured they might be a combination of deer and duck hunters because there were so many cars and
trucks. We stopped at Mikes Bait shop in Eden Valley for the bait
of choice. The proprietor said fatheads, but warning us fishing there
hadnt been as good as a year ago. That wasnt what we wanted to
hear, but the breakfast at the Hilltop Cafe in Paynesville was great.
We launched our boat at the VFW Campgrounds and fished several
spots that were good a year ago without a bite. Fortunately it was a
beautiful day and a great day for being on the water. Anglers were
fishing in a lot of different places and we tried some new spots and
I was beginning to panic about 10 a.m. Out of desperation I suggested a dollar on the first walleye or northern. That put a smile on
Palmers face (above right) and by 11 a.m. he was reeling in our first
and only walleye. It wasnt a biggie, but good enough for the dollar
bet. A man and wife duo were fishing nearby and they (the lady)
caught one, too. I figured we had found a hot spot, but that was only
wishful thinking. George released his walleye. I made a mental note
of that spot for another time, figuring from the structure present it
should hold fish. We made an attempt to find some sunfish, but that
didnt work either so we wrapped it up about 5 p.m. Being somewhat
of an eternal optimist and judging from the anglers launching their
boats for the evening run, if I go back it will be in the evening.

Rep. John Boehners abrupt resignation as Speaker of the House
and from Congress last week effective Oct. 30 surprised me as well
as most Americans. Whether good or bad for the country remains to
be seen, but the Tea Party troops loved it. On the other hand, maybe
his resignation should be followed in an orderly manner by the rest
of the Congressmen who cant seem to agree on much at Capitol
Hill!

Ask a
Trooper
by Sgt. Neil Dickenson
Question: What does the
State of MN require the seller of
a vehicle licensed in Minnesota
to do or report when a vehicle is
sold through a private party
sale?
Answer: When you sell a vehicle, you (owner/seller) are responsible to file the Notice of
Sale within ten days of the sale.
This is located in the lower portion of the Certificate of Title,
and you would tear that small
piece off. The information you
would include would be the
transferees full name, address,
drivers license number, and
date of sale. Mail to: Minnesota
Department of Public Safety,
Driver and Vehicle Services Division, 445 Minnesota Street, St.
Paul, MN 55101-5168. This can

Adjustments to insurance
coverage and discussion about
user rates occupied the Annandale-Maple Lake-Howard Lake
Wastewater Commission during
its quarterly meeting on Thursday, Sept. 24.
In regard to rates and the
budget for 2016, Commission
Secretary Kelly Hinnenkamp
noted that despite a generally
wet summer the commission collected the lowest amount of bill-
but because of all the (corrections in the inflow and infiltration) weve done, the flows dont
reflect the wet weather, said
plant operator Joe Haller.
While time remains in the
year and substantial revenue is
expected in the form of sewer
connection charges from new
construction, the commissions
cash flow document for September indicated a net loss of
$450,000 for 2015.
The plan since the plant
opened has been to operate at a
loss until 2015 and the commis-

7AM - 2PM
In response to two staff resignation announcements September 15, Maple Lake City Council
members gathered for a special
meeting Monday, September 21,
and took action to fill the impending vacancies.
The retirement at this years
end of liquor store manager Carol
Bestland, following 37 years of
service, presented a new challenge as councilmembers considered a range of qualifications and
expectations that had not been
examined in decades. Perusing
samples of job requirements in
other cities, councilmembers discussed the skill sets they would
like to attract and the salary range
they should consider. It was decided that City Clerk Lee Ann
Yager should use parts of each
sample and, under Bestlands advisement, assemble a draft job
description for council approval
in October. The position will be
posted by September 28 in local
papers, with the Minnesota Municipal Beverage Association, the
League of Minnesota Cities and
Indeed.com, with applications to
be accepted through October 12.
In the case of Andrew Johnsons intended exit from the public works department, the council
took a different tack, updating the
citys employee compensation
classifications to recently-imposed standards and setting an
immediate pay raise with the assurance of another increase following the receipt of Johnsons
next water and sewer licensure
upgrade.
As Mayor Lynn Kissock
noted at the meetings opening,
new information had come to
light since the citys most recent
compensation study and position
analysis, which was conducted in
the last quarter of 2014 and approved early this year. Contrary
to advisement by Springsted,
Inc., who conducted the analysis,
licensure is a requirement for
Johnsons maintenance position,
which should be regarded as
grade six, Kissock said. Portraying Johnson as a valued member
of the citys team, the mayor
reviewed a recent decision to upgrade his status from paygrade
five, step one to paygrade five,
step five, bringing his hourly
wage to $17.97 three cents shy
of the raise Johnson had requested. She went on to propose
that with this new-found information, the council should redesignate the position as grade six,
step four, for an hourly wage of
$18.36, which would actually put
Johnson in line with the citys
2016 pay plan. Assuming he receives his next certification in the
spring, she added, Johnson will
then be eligible for the next pay
step, which will bring his wage to
$18.86 per hour.
When Councilmember Deb
Geyen questioned the need for
such measures, City Clerk Lee
Ann Yager and Public Works Director Jerry Sawatzke responded
that licensure obtainment is a
three-year process and with only
pany.
Prizes included resident
Amy Burgs delicious homemade goodies and other baskets
filled with assorted items. After
game time was over root beer
floats were served. Don Kloss

* Adopted a resolution declaring Oct. 4-10 as National 4-H
Week in Wright County. Minnesota has 71,000 4-H youth
members and 9,500 adult volunteers. Wright Countys 4-H program includes 600 youth
members and 155 adult volunteers.
* By a 3-2 vote, set a public
hearing for 9:30 a.m. at the Oct.
6 board meeting to discuss a proposed zoning change in Silver
Creek Township that would rezone approximately 12 acres of
agricultural land into a general
business designation. Commissioners Mike Potter and Christine Husom voted against setting
the hearing, opting to accept the
recommendation of the planning
commissioner. The matter had
been discussed at the planning
commission, which, according to
Assistant County Attorney Greg
Kryzer, went through four public

The positions justified themselves, Kelly said. The needs
had become so great in some
areas that we felt we needed to
put more help in those departments. For quite a while we had
a practice that a vacant position
would be held open longer than
it traditionally would. As things
have progressed here, weve
been able to get away from those
practices a little bit. Mostly,
weve had to fill them because of
the workloads in those departments.
The board unanimously approved the budget and levy figures. As a result, neither the
budget nor levy can increase
from this point. If there are any
changes, it will be to lower one
or both totals. The next step will
be the opportunity for public
input at the annual Truth In
Local Taxation hearing, scheduled for 6 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 1.
The final budget and levy will be
adopted at a December board
meeting following the TILT

Rhea Langemo as Sister Robert Anne and Louise Rau as Sister Amnesia. Linda Metcalf returns to BCT for her third Nunsense production as the Reverend Mother.
In this latest Nunsense adventure, the "Little Sisters of Hoboken"
are hitting the high seas on the Faiths of All Nations Cruise.When
the cast of Fiddler on the Roof (with the exception of the guy playing Tevye) gets seasick, the ships captain asks the sisters and Tevye
to put on a show. The result- Meshuggah-Nuns!
Hilarity reigns supreme on the high seas with songs like Say It
In Yiddish, Contrition, In the Convent, and If I Were a Catholic.
From Sister Amnesias attempt at magic to the sing-along Fiddlerspiel, Meshuggah-Nuns! is an ecumenical fun-fest. On the technical
side of the production, Cokato resident Dave Metcalf returns to direct Buffalo Community Theater's third Nunsense send-up with
music direction provided by Buffalo's Michael Walsh.
Performances will take place at Discovery Auditorium in Buffalo,
October 16-18 and October 23-23. A special "Pink Night at BCT"
will take place on October 17. On this evening $2 from every ticket
sold will be donated to the Buffalo Hospital Foundation to support
their Cancer Care Services in our community.
All seating is reserved, and advanced tickets are available online
from the BCT website: www.bctmn.org. Any remaining tickets will
be sold at the door.
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota
through a grant from the Central MN Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund."

Wastewater
continued from page 2
Staying the course
Because the billable wastewater entering the plant in 2015
was so far below average and
was over 55 million gallons less
than in 2014 commissioners
seemed confident that sticking to
the plan that involves a rate increase for 2016 would begin the
correction process that is projected to gradually reestablish
the commissions cash reserves
in future years.
Next year users will see their
rates rise from $6.25 to $7,
meaning that the average user
will see a monthly bill increase
from $28 to $32. That rate is projected to stay flat through 2028,
however.
Right now, if we are following our plan here, then assuming
that we are getting near average
flows the cities should not expect
another rate increase for a while,
unless we absolutely have to,
said commissioner Dwight
Dewey Gunnarson.
User rates have steadily increased from $3 and an average
monthly bill of $14 in 2009, but
2016 is the turning point where
the cash reserve is projected to
begin heading north again. The
reserve began with $2.7 million
and was spent down to keep initial user rates low.
Insurance coverage
With warranties expiring on
the plants equipment, commissioners decided to juggle insurance deductibles and premiums
during the meeting.
Until this year the commission has held a $10,000 deductible, figuring that with new
equipment and warranty coverage such a high expense was unlikely. Last year the commission
added equipment breakdown
coverage, which has already
been put to use when pipe stress
caused pump housings to frac-
ture.
At last weeks meeting the
commission decided that in light
of expiring warranties and a declining cash reserve, it made
sense to lower all deductibles to
$1,000 and keep the equipment
insurance at a $250 deductible.
A deductible of $10,000 is
high, said Hinnenkamp. We
dont have a very significant reserve fund, so if we do have a
couple of incidents in a year at
$10,000 to $30,000, that would
be a hit to our budget. And the
cost to go down to $1,000 isnt
terribly significant.
That change resulted in an
overall premium increase of
about $1,100 from 2014 up to a
total of $16,149.
Insurance agent Paul Manuel
noted that in the plants sevenyear history there have already
been two or three weather-related claims, and if one claim is
made in the next 10 years, the
coverage will likely pay for itself. One recent claim was made
to replace a pump valued at
$10,000, for example.
If my crystal ball could work
and say you werent going to
have any equipment breakdown, Id tell you to drop the
coverage, said Manuel.
Industrial users
Commissioners also agreed to
look into the establishment of a
industrial user fee.
Bolton and Menk engineer
Jared Voge said such agreements
are common to ensure that industrial users pay their fair share for
waste treatment above normal
residential loads, but the commission has not yet instituted
such a policy.
I think it would be prudent to
start exploring this, he said, explaining that future industrial development in the towns is likely.
Voge explained that, in addi-
