That wasthe reason why Mielke returnedto the question about apossible more expensive upgradeto CASH 8.At the previous meeting,the board decided to stay witha less expensive overlayprocess.However, their eyes wereopened wider with the goodnews that the low bid by tonwas similar to the 2008 and2009 season.“We couldn’t believe howaggressively they bid thisjob,” said Mielke aboutWilliam Mueller and Sons,Inc. “If you include a simpleoverlay of CASH 8, the totalproject cost is just under $2.3million and our engineer’s estimatewas just over $3 million.That is about $700,000less than what we had anticipated.”Of the $2.3 million, Mielkesaid about $500,000 is countyfunds, going for county roadsthat are not eligible for stateaid funding or it is for patchingprojects.“We are going to use $1.8million of our state aid allotment,”said Mielke. “If welook at our 2014 funding aswell, we still have $1.2 millionleft on the table.”The cost for grinding upthe pavement on CASH 8 andpaving it three and a half tofour inches deep would beabout $1.2 to $1.5 million.“The county could be lookingat the state aid allotmentcovering the project completelyif it advances 2014funds forward,” said Mielke.“You may have to throw in$200,000, but it would be avery permanent fix for thatroad.”The life expectancy for theoverlay is 12 to 13 yearscompared to 25 to 30 with thepaving.Mielke suggested at thispoint the board could awardthe bid as is today and thentry to work out a negotiatedsupplement agreement. Or itcould table the award to lookat the full picture.Commissioner Bill Pinskethought the county couldmake the award as it is andmake an amendment later. Headded, “I would hate to tellsomeone ahead of time thatwe will work it out. We cansay we are going to look atit.”The cost for the upgrade isbetween five and six dollarsmore per ton because of betterquality asphalt, accordingto Mielke.“That is certainly a pleasantsurprise because I think wewere all looking at that butthe impact on the budget wassuch that we could not livewith it,” said Pinske. “If it isonly a couple hundred thousanddollars, we could takethat out of reserves.”The board voted to acceptthe current low bid and thengo after the upgrade.• In other action the lowbid by Structural Specialties,Inc. of $404,933.65 for abridge construction projectcame in at 23.60 percentunder estimate. The highestbid was 27.88 percent overestimate.• A contract with Pro Landscapewas approved for oneyear of lawn maintenance andsnow removal around countybuildings.During the year there willbe research into the possibleuse of the Sentencing to Service(STS) work program. Atthe same time, the countysigned off on the income contractwith the state for theSTS program.*Hearings were set on June25 for minor alterations totwo ditches, County ditch 54at 9:30 a.m. and JudicialDitch 20 at 1 p.m.• The public hearing on theengineer’s preliminary reportfor the establishment of anew drainage system projecton County Ditch No. 70 wasset for 2 p.m. Tuesday, May28.

Thisis endorsed by the Associationof Minnesota Counties(AMC). Several countieshave incorporated the program.I see it as a win-winbecause the jail inmates canuse it, which I assume wouldsave the county some dollars.”Cards would be availablefor pickup at the public healthoffice and at area drug stores.County Administrator MattJaunich said there is someconcern from staff and counselthat if approved it wouldappear the county is endorsingone company or productover another. He called it apolicy decision.“The agreement providesthat we endorse them, whichis not exclusive,” said CountyAttorney David Schauer. “Ifyou use another product, thediscount or rebate we get forevery use of the card decreasessignificantly. They alsowant to be on our countywebsite. They want the rightto use the county seal. Theydo the advertising. I raise theissue if the county wants tobe in the business of raisingone private business over another.”Schauer offered an exampleof what if other companiescome and say let us beon the county website in exchangefor services like oilchanges.“If the board does want togo that route then you need tothink long-term,” advisedSchauer. “Are we going tohave a policy of who can usethe card or can anybody beendorsed by the county?”Stock said other countiesreport that they do not end upwith a huge rebate, but theyare all very happy with theprogram that works withlocal pharmacies. She addedthe prescription card is forpeople who are under insured,but anybody can use it.County Commissioner JimSwanson suggested the boarddo a trial for a year to seewhat bang they get for thebuck.

Pinskeasked if local drug stores canbe asked if they think this is agood idea and want to goalong with it.“If pharmacies are regulatedwith what they can charge,it is not going to help themany,” said Swanson.Stock said that is true withany medical insurance companysaying what they arewilling to pay.Pinske added, “We are notnecessarily opposed to this,but I am in need of more information.”Le Sueur-Henderson students learn and grow in Costa RicaFor nine days in March, 14high school students from LeSueur-Henderson took theirbright and eager minds toCosta Rica where they hadthrilling adventures, experienceda new culture andlearned things about theworld and themselves, accordingto an article in the LeSueur Herald.“It’s such a good experiencefor the kids,” said MariaReinhardt, a Spanish teacherwww.arlingtonmnnews.comat LS-H High School who accompaniedthe students onthe trip. “So many kids havenever been on a plane andnever left the country of eventhe state.” In a coast-to-coasttour of this small nation theselucky students explored vasttropical forests, stood in aweat the sight of a volcano, feltocean waves crash in on theirfeet and even white waterrafted.Sibley East Retiree RecognitionCeremony and Breakfast BanquetFriday, May 31 stGaylord Campus Cafeteria 8:00 a.m.We welcome community members and formerstaff members to join us in honoring retirees:Teri Pilacinski & Gail NorellFor their service to Sibley East and their dedication toeducation.

Arlington Enterprise, Thursday, May 23, 2013, page 4www.arlingtonmnnews.comOpinionsMemorial Day is a timeto remember those peoplewho have died in serviceOur View: Purpose of Memorial Day hasnot changed in Arlington and Green IsleMemorial Day is a time to remember and honor the bravemen and women who have died in service of our country. It isalso a time to remember and honor the veterans who havepassed away after their service in the military.Some people believe the holiday has strayed from that purpose.Instead of an official day of remembrance and mourning,they feel it has become an unofficial kickoff to a vacationseason.That may be true in some communities around the country,but it is certainly not the case in Arlington and Green Isle.The veterans service organizations in both communitieshave traditionally featured meaningful programs which havebeen well attended by local and area residents on MemorialDay over the years.One bright note to this traditionally subdued observance isthe way the veterans service organizations have gotten theyouth involved in these programs. The Sibley East seniorhigh band and Boy Scouts have participated in the yearlyprogram over the years and it is the hope that these youth willpass the importance of this holiday on to their children in thefuture.Memorial Day is only a few days away and there is nodoubt that local and area residents will again attend the programsat Memorial Park in Arlington and the gymnasium atthe Green Isle Community School on Monday, May 27.It is important for local and area residents to take one hourout of their lives to attend these programs to honor and reflecton the more than 45 million men and women who haveserved in the military in a long distinguished line going backto the American Revolution and to the more than one millionveterans who have died in that service.-K.M.Too Tall’s TidbitsHappy Birthday and Happy Anniversaryto the following local andarea residents compliments of theArlington Lions Club CommunityCalendar.May 24In Memory Of LeRoy Winter, DeborahPerschau, Faith Otto, LoganGlieden, Marisa Kroells, and Mr.and Mrs. Clarence Sickmann.May 25In Memory Of Norb Brau, Jim Farber,Mark Melsha, Reda Ulven, RickKoepp and Shirley Kubal.May 26In Memory Of Debbie Mathwig, InMemory Of Pam Lohse, DavidKrohn, Jeremy Latzke, Kurt Kolander,Noah Tackmann and Will Hislop.May 27Jeff Schuetz, Rese Henke, TirzahLing, Derek Pfeller, Carrie Pioskeand Betsy Conway.May 28In Memory Of Elaine Schauer, EllieKaesermann, Marion Woehler,Wendy Pederson, and Mr. and Mrs.Robert Woehler.May 29Barb Haggenmiller, Barb Krueger,and Mr. and Mrs. Allen Schwirtz.May 30Andy McCarthy, Colton Luepke,Loanne Sorenson and Logan Mc-Cormick.*****A little boy at a wedding looks athis mom and says, “Mommy, whydoes the bride wear white?”His mom replies, “The bride is inwhite because she’s happy and thisis the happiest day of her life.”The boys thinks about this, andthen says, “Well then why is thegroom wearing black?”*****An elderly couple had been experiencingdeclining memories, so theydecided to take a power memoryclass where one is taught to rememberthings by association.A few days after the class, the oldman was outside talking with hisneighbor about how much the classhelped him.“What was the name of the instructor?”asked the neighbor.“Oh, ummmm, let’s see,” the oldman pondered. “You know thatflower, you know, the one thatsmells really nice but has thoseprickly thorns, what’s that flower’sname?”“A rose?” asked the neighbor.“Yes, that's it,” replied the oldman. He then turned toward hishouse and shouted, “Hey, Rose,what’s the name of the instructorwe took the memory class from?”*****Mary was having a tough day andhad stretched herself out on thecouch to do a bit of what she thoughtto be well-deserved complaining andself- pitying.She moaned to her mom andbrother, “Nobody loves me ... thewhole world hates me!”Her brother, busily occupiedplaying a game, hardly looked upat her and passed on this encouragingword: “That’s not true,Mary. Some people don't evenknow you.”*****There were three constructionworkers that always got the samething for lunch. All of them weretired of eating the same thing overand over again.First worker : “I hate sandwiches.If I get sandwiches for lunch againtomorrow I’m jumping off thatbridge.”Second worker : “Oh my Gosh! IfI see another taco I’m going to jumpoff that bridge tomorrow.”Third worker: “Beans again?

Since the beginningof session, Democrats havetaken every opportunity to expandgovernment, take more of yourhard-earned tax dollars, and divideMinnesotans with divisive social issuesat the behest and direction ofthe far-left special interests whoswept them into office by spendingmillions to purchase a friendly legislatureto do their bidding.During their short time in the majority,Democrats have brought fortha lot of bad legislation, but on thelast day of session, by one vote, Democratspassed a bill I considermorally reprehensible. This bill aimsto unionize childcare providers -- independentsmall business owners --forcing providers who don't wish tojoin a union to either pay fair sharedues or not accept low-income childrenwho receive childcare assistanceprogram subsidies.The fact that Democrats are willingto force unionization onproviders who don’t want it at theexpense of low-income children andfamilies is one of the most outrageousthings I’ve seen in my time atthe legislature. This is nothing morethan a power-grab for union organizations.It’s not what’s best for Minnesota,it's a “thank you” to laborunion bosses who spent millions toget them elected. The bill author admittedas much during an interviewon WCCO.The state of Minnesota will nowspend $4 million of taxpayer moneyto hold an election for a union thatproviders don’t want. This electionwill likely mean unnecessaryheadaches for childcare providers. Arecent article in the Sauk CentreHerald outlined the deceptive andintimidating practices employed byunion organizers that will bebrought to the doorsteps of Minnesota's11,000 childcare providersto coerce them into supporting theunion.The unions have a vested interestin making sure this election goes intheir favor; they currently haveabout $8 million dollars in debt afterspending millions to elect Democratsto the legislature. If successful,it’s estimated that the childcareGuest ColumnBy Amy KlobucharU.S. SenatorAcross Minnesota, communitieshave been facing a rash of robberies.But these thieves aren’t your commonthugs stealing TVs or computers– instead they’re going afterhigh-priced metal from businesses,homes and even veterans’ graves,and selling it to scrap dealers tomake a quick buck.In Rochester, I met with a localbusiness that has been robbed bymetal thieves 12 times in just thepast two years and suffered morethan $150,000 in losses. During oneof these robberies, thieves even stolea truck with the company logo on it,and then used that truck to rob otherconstruction sites without raisingsuspicion.In St. Paul, metal thieves stole$20,000 worth of copper pipes fromthe Phalen Ice Rink, causing the rinkto temporarily close until local businessesoffered to pitch in for repairs.And in Isanti County, in an act toocallous to comprehend, criminalsstole more than 200 brass stars fromveterans’ graves over Memorial Dayweekend.This crime can also threaten publicsafety. Metal thieves have causedexplosions in vacant buildings bystealing metal from gas lines andthey’ve caused blackouts by stealingcopper wiring from streetlights andelectrical substations.What’s more, the problem is gettingworse. The worldwide price ofcopper has increased significantly.As a result, thieves are eager to stealcopper and resell it to scrap metaldealers. In recent years metal thefthas jumped nationally by more than80%, with an estimated cost of up to$900 million each year for copperwire theft. It’s is clear we need totake action.This is a national problem thatwill require a national solution withfederal, state, and local officialsworking together. While some stateslike Minnesota have a tougher metaltheft laws, that doesn’t stop thievesfrom stealing metal from one stateand selling it in other states.That is why I introduced legislationwith Republican Senators LindsayGraham from South Carolinaand John Hoeven of North Dakotato crack down on metal thieves nationwideand make it harder forthem to sell their stolen metal.union would bring in $8-$13 milliondollars. How convenient.Minnesota parents, children, andchildcare providers did not ask to bebrought into a legalized moneylaunderingscheme to pay backunion special interests. Dozens ofmy GOP colleagues spent manyhours calling every single childcareprovider in their district. Support forthe union was extremely sparse. Theresults were conclusive -- manytimes fewer than five percent in support.I can’t imagine that my colleaguesacross the aisle heard resultsmuch different from ours, yet theyvoted for this disgrace of a bill anyway.I hope childcare providers remainvigilant and do their research aboutthe potential impacts that this unionizationeffort will have. Higherchildcare costs thanks to expensiveunion dues, and fewer choices forthe parents of low-income parents isnot something that will be good forproviders or good for Minnesotaparents.Glenn GruenhagenState RepresentativeR-GlencoeOnly good thing is legislative session is overTo The Editor,The only good thing about thelegislative session is that it's over.Unfortunately, the damage inflictedon families, taxpayers and employerswill be long lasting and farreaching. The overreach of this Democratcontrolled House, Senate andGovernorship was historical. Wecan only hope their exuberance willlead to the loss of majority in thenext election. Even then, it will bevery difficult to repair the damage toour society and beloved State ofMinnesota.Larry SorensonArlingtonFighting metal theft in Minnesota communitiesOur bill makes it a federal crimeto steal metal from critical infrastructureand ensures we have toughpenalties for those who break thelaw. The bill also contains a “DoNot Buy” provision which bansscrap metal recyclers from buyingcertain items unless the sellers establishwith written documentationthat they are authorized to sell thescrap metal in question.Under our legislation scrap metaldealers will be required to keep detailedrecords of metal purchases fortwo years and make them availableto law enforcement agencies. Finally,the bill would require that purchasesof scrap metal over $100 bedone by check instead of cash tohelp law enforcement track downthieves.In order to stop these thieves fromwreaking havoc on families’ homes,businesses’ bottom lines, and evenveterans’ graves, we need to takeswift action to crack down and forcethese criminals to pay a heavy pricewhen caught. I will continue to workwith law enforcement, local communities,and my colleagues in the Senateto get this done.SHARE YOUR OPINION THROUGHA LETTER TO THE EDITOR.EMAIL YOUR LETTER TOKURTM@ARLINGTONMNNEWS.COMArlington ENTERPRISEEstablished in 1884.Postmaster send address changes to:Arlington Enterprise.402 West Alden Street, P.O.

TheMinnesota Department ofNatural Resources (DNR) isurging people to leave fawnsalone.While a new fawn may appearhelpless, it’s importantnot to interfere with the doe’snatural instinct for raising itsyoung, DNR officials said.A doe’s method of rearingoffspring is different from ahuman’s, especially for thefirst few weeks.Wildlife officials explainedit this way: Within hours ofbirth, the fawn is led to a secludedspot and the doe lets itnurse. Then the doe leaves tofeed and rest herself, out ofweather,The Irish will hostHutchinson at 7:30 p.m.Friday, May 24.Green Isle will hostYoung America at 6 p.m.Monday, May 27.DNR urges people to leave fawns alonesight but within earshot. Infour or five hours, she will returnto feed her young andtake them to a new hidingplace. Only when the fawnsare strong enough to outrunpredators, do the young travelmuch with their mother.For the first week of life,frightened fawns instinctivelyfreeze, making full use oftheir white spotted coats, aprotective coloration. Newbornfawns are not fastenough to outdistance predators,so they must depend ontheir ability to hide for protection.A fawn’s curiosity may enticeit to approach a personwho comes upon on it. TheCold water will be dangerous to boaters thisMemorial Day weekend, according to DNRFalling into frigid watercan cause an immediate gaspfor air and the shock of theicy water can also cause cardiacarrest, even for people ingood health. Cold water robsthe body of heat 25 timesfaster than air of the sametemperature, Salo added.So far this year, there havebeen no boating fatalities inMinnesota, compared to fourdeaths for the same periodlast year. “This is the firsttime since 2004 Minnesotansare going into Memorial Dayweekend without a boatingfatality,” Salo said.

Left to right:By Sgt. Jacalyn StichaMinnesota State PatrolDo you know what happensin the first fatal secondafter a car going 55 miles perhour hits a solid object?1. In the first 10th of a second,the front bumper andgrill collapse.2. The second 10th of asecond finds the hood crumbling,rising and striking thewindshield as the spinningrear wheels lift from theground. Simultaneously,fenders begin wrapping themselvesaround the solid object.Although the car’sframe has been halted, therest of the car is still going 55miles per hour. Instinct causesthe driver to stiffen hislegs against the crash, andthey snap at the knee joint.3. During the third 10th ofa second, the steering wheelstarts to disintegrate and thesteering column aims for thedriver’s chest.4. The fourth 10th of a secondfinds two feet of the car’sfront end wrecked, while therear end still moves at 35miles per hour. The driver’sbody is still traveling at 55miles per hour.5. In the fifth 10th of a second,the driver is impaled onthe steering column, andblood rushes into his lungs.6. The sixth 10th of a second,the impact has built upto the point that the driver’sfeet are ripped out of tightlyEnterprise photo by Kurt MenkPaige Nelson (Most Dedicated Award),Bailey Brockoff (Art Student of the YearAward) and Samantha Lane (Most CreativeAward).The first second of a fatal crashlaced shoes. The brake pedalbreaks off. The car framebuckles in the middle. Thedriver’s head smashes intothe windshield as the rearwheels, still spinning, fallback to the earth.7. In the seventh 10th of asecond, hinges rip loose,doors fly open and the seatsbreak free, striking the driverfrom behind.8. The seat striking thedriver does not bother himbecause he is already dead.The last three 10ths of a secondmean nothing to the driver.Moral: You may choose tobreak the law and not buckleup; however, you cannotbreak the laws of physics.• Letterheads• Business Cards• Resumes• Newsletters• Forms• Brochures• Programs• Invitations• Flyers• Folders• Building Signs• Direct Mail• Novelty Products• Banners• Billboards• Posters• & More!Rush Service AvailableWe are more than just a newspaper!Name __________________________Address__________________________________________________________Phone __________________________www.raisetherouf.webs.comPRESENTED BY:FRIENDS CARE–HEARTS SHARE, INC.CMR.
