County hires architect to draw plans for LEC building

By Sara QuamRock County Commissioners voted to take the next step toward building a new Law Enforcement Center Friday.Through a unanimous vote, commissioners directed County Attorney Don Klosterbuer and County Administrator Kyle Oldre to negotiate a contract with Paulsen Architects, Mankato, to develop plans for a new LEC.Commissioners haven’t voted on the actual project or how to fund it yet.The new LEC will probably go on county-owned land between the Family Services and Highway Department buildings on Blue Mound Avenue.The project is estimated to cost $2,122,252 with about half of it coming from bonding, the other half from reserves. Commissioner Jane Wildung said she is still against a new building project, favoring a remodeling of the current 1900 structure instead."I’m going to vote against a new construction project, but it’s my obligation to support researching the board’s options," Wildung said."I think the board needs to know what they’re getting into. If they want to do it, they’d better do it right."She said she will still be involved in a new building process as a member of the Building Committee. Also, she said, she wants to make sure the building is high quality and corners aren’t cut to save money in the short term.She uses the Rock County Family Services building (built in the 1980s) as an example."We put more money into the Human Services since it was built than we did in 100 years for the Law Enforcement Center," Wildung said.The county has plans to replace windows and doors in the Human Services Building within a few years.Commissioners still maintain that they don’t want to tear down the existing Law Enforcement Center and are trying to find an appropriate use for it.The preliminary plans give a new LEC 9,280 square feet.The space would include interview rooms, a secure entrance and exit, more office space and additional storage. It also has space for a training and community room and holding cells for prisoners.It has more windows and a single floor plan, so work space would be brighter and more efficient there.The surface of a new building would be stucco and brick. The roof would be pitched, so all mechanical systems would be inside.

H-BC Board approves normal summer business items

By Lexi MooreThe Hills-Beaver Creek School Board approved the following items during their regular monthly meeting on Monday.Preliminary BudgetA preliminary 2005-06 budget of $3,140,850 was approved. Superintendent David Deragisch warned the board that the figures provided are the same used in the 2004-05 school year’s budget, without any adjustments."Due to state budget problems, I had to roll over last year’s figures," he said. "We had to do this so we could start paying bills."Deragisch expects to have a finalized version of the budget for board members to approve in August or September.He presented the board with projected state aids as posted on the Department of Education Web site."We can take this and start making an actual budget based on these numbers," he said.A new education bill was signed into law Wednesday, July 13, but state financiers are still working out the details.State projections estimate H-BC would receive $2,128,618 in state aid for the 2005-06 school year. This figure would give the school a 1.28-percent increase compared to the $2,102,366 in state aid received in 2004-05.The new law projects the school would receive $2,236,362 in state aid for the 2006-07 school year, a 5.1-percent increase."We fare much better the second year than the first. The state is making some strides for improvements," Deragisch said.Board members were pleased to see any increase in the dollar amount of state funding after four years without an increase.MSBA MembershipBoard members approved the renewal of their Minnesota School Board Association membership.The MSBA supports, promotes and enhances the work of local school boards. Dues are determined by the "average daily membership of students served for the fiscal year ended on June 30, 2004."H-BC’s dues totaled $1,765 for the 2005-06 school year. An additional $395 is due for policy renewal."They do a great job and provide us with invaluable resources," Deragisch said. "I call about once a week, if I have a question, I call them. I would push to approve our renewal."The board agreed and approved their renewal with MSBA for the 2005-06 school year.Parent-Student HandbooksThe board voted to approve revised parent-student handbooks for the upcoming school year.Elementary Principal Todd Holthaus explained the few changes to the elementary handbook. The changes were minimal and approved by the board.The board approved the following changes to the high school handbook:
The Department of Education now requires students to pass three science and three math credits prior to graduation.In the past, students were required to pass two math and two science credits. They were then given the option to choose which discipline, math or science, they wanted to take a third credit.
The administration can adjust the credits of transfer students.
The procedure for dropping a class changed to state, "You may not drop or add classes after the first week of either semester."In the past, students only had the option to drop a class during the first week of the school year. The new procedure gives the students that right at the beginning of the new semester.
When students are removed from class, they will be sent home for the remainder of the day. In the past, the removed student would have be sent to the office until the end of the period.Title I Parent Involvement PolicyThe board approved a Title I Parent Involvement Policy mandated by state and federal governments for schools to receive Title I funds.The policy pushes to get parents of Title I students more involved with the process by holding an annual meeting, implementing a school-parent compact, encouraging parent involvement at home and creating an advisory committee to maintain the school district’s Parental Involvement Policy.Policy Changes
Changes to the Public and Personnel Data Policy, Policy number 406, were accepted and approved. The policy provides guidance to school district employees as to the data the school district collects and maintains regarding its personnel.One change eliminated city and county of residence from the list of public data. Officials added an additional item to the list of private personnel data."The school district shall release to a requesting school district or charter school private personnel data on a current or former employee related to acts of violence toward or sexual contact with a student in an investigation conducted by or on behalf of the school district or law enforcement."A complete list of the data considered public and private is available at the high school.
A policy dealing with drug and alcohol testing, policy number 416, was also approved at the meeting.The policy deals with the testing of service employees and paraprofessionals.Attachment 99 – OSHA RecommendationsAttachment 99 outlined assessments made during a mock OSHA walk-through on Dec. 14, 2004.Although the violations were minor, school officials have a detailed plan of action to fix each of the violations.Dates to Remember
August 8 and August 22 will be the dates for upcoming school board meetings.
August 29-30 Hills-Beaver Creek teachers will meet for teacher workshops.
August 30 the schools will hold their open houses for local residents interested in learning about the programs offered.

At home in Hills

The cost to fill my father’s suburban with gas on Friday afternoon — $78.50.The cost to buy food and drink for three days for myself, my parents and my little brother at Super Wal-Mart in Pierre, S.D., — $88.70.The cost to enter myself and my father in a couples’ fishing tournament at my family’s bait shop — $100.The cost to fill the boat with gas — $29.80.The cost to stop for ice cream treats, hamburgers and cheese balls on the drive home — $28.20.The cost of a weekend at my parents’ trailer on Lake Oahe — priceless?Even after years of this slogan being an effective marketing tool, I am still not sure if I buy it. How do all of those bills really add up to priceless?I did not even include the cost of bait, fishing licenses, trailer rentals or the cost of my fishing outfit. but, man — it was an expensive weekend. We probably could have gone on a real family vacation for that amount of money.So how is it considered priceless?Is it because I had nearly nine hours of alone time with my father on a boat searching for giant walleye? Or because I was able to help my youngest brother write a short story? Or because I got to go kitten hunting with my mother on several occasions? Or maybe it has something to do with teaching my cousins and brother how to play black jack while my grandfather and uncle looked on?I guess these "priceless treasured moments" are supposed to make the steep price of gasoline and insane price of an out-of-state fishing license seem like nothing.Well, I am sure my father’s wallet and bank account would claim that’s not the case.I look at my weekend’s activities as old-fashioned fun, but looking at the cost, it was high dollar vacation.My team, called Team John and Lexi, did not place in high enough to get any return on our entry fee, but we were respectable.Last week when I asked my father how much money we could win, he said, "Well, we usually try not to humiliate ourselves, so we just want to be respectable."We caught the needed five walleyes to participate and brought in one drum and one small mouth bass to participate in the side contests, so that was respectable in my dad’s eyes — although our drum did end up being the biggest and netted my dad $50.This was the seventh year of the annual event, but it was my first. For all of the past years except one, my sister has taken the role as female team member.The first year my mother, who is terrified of boats and water, put her fears aside and boarded the boat in search of the winning fish. Unfortunately, that was the same day as one of the season’s worst storms. They did not win and probably with my mother’s screams, they had a hard time being respectable.This year, I was close enough to home to be asked to participate in the action. Of course, my relationship with my sister will probably suffer for a while because I was given her coveted spot on the boat.Again, are these really "priceless treasured moments" or just typical family adventures with a very high price tag?Finally, let me walk through the price of the fresh walleye fillets I brought home at the end of the weekend.We netted 14.2 pounds of walleye. After my father had "cleaned" the fish and returned with a bowl of fillets, I imagine we had less than five pounds of edible meat. I am guessing at this figure, so to make my team look better I will round it up and say we had six pounds.$108.30 gas$100.00 tournament fee$65.00 out of state license$29.00 in state license$10.00 bait+ $30.00 food, drink on boat$342.30 Total- $50.00 Biggest Drum contest$292.30 Total price of fishing.Divide this by six pounds of fillets and it equals $48.72 per pound of walleye.Even for fresh walleye that seems pretty high. Next time members of my family suggest we make a quick run to Lake Oahe, I am going to ask if they would rather go to the store, buy some walleye for $8 per pound and use the left over money to take a trip to the zoo in Omaha.Surely we could come up with just as many "priceless treasured moments," but maybe we would actually have some interesting photographs to prove it.Story ideas or comments can be emailed to Lexi Moore at lexim@star-herald.com or called in at 962-3561.
