From fast action during a medical emer-gency to implementing safety measures atlocal schools, more than two dozen men andwomen were honored during theBloomington Police Department BehaviorRecognition Awards ceremony last week.

Certificates and medals were handed outto several Bloomington police officers forexcellence in the line of duty. They weren’tthe only honorees, however, as the depart-ment handed out several citizen medalsand certificates in recognition of contribu-tions by others.

The awards were presented June 22 atBloomington Civic Plaza for incidents dur-ing the past two years. The most recent ofthose came last month when a Minnetonkaman helped stop an out-of-control car nearMall of America.

James Glover of Minnetonka was driv-ing a Hummer near Mall of America asthousands of participants were completingthe Race for the Cure May 8. He noticed acar, driven by a 91-year-old woman, hittingthe freeway barrier as the driver was exit-ing from Highway 77 onto Killebrew Drive,headed toward the Race for the Cure pro-cession on the mall’s south side. Glover,sensing the woman was having a medicalissue that prevented her from controllingthe vehicle, hit her car with the Hummer.

The two vehicles collided with a third car,stopping the woman’s car before it reachedRace for the Cure participants.

Glover was awarded the Citizen Medalof Valor for his actions.

Many of the awards were given to TwinCities residents, but two brothers whoreceived a Citizen Medal of Valor traveledmuch further to receive their awards.

Colten Bugg, 18, and Forest Bugg, 22,traveled from Rapid City, S.D., and Bemidji,respectively, to accept their awards from theBloomington Police Department.

Their return trip to Bloomington was aresult of their actions on Oct. 30, 2010, whenthey chased down two shoplifters who hadstolen NASCAR jackets from a Mall ofAmerica store and were being pursued by aloss prevention officer. The pursuit contin-ued outside Mall of America, whereBloomington police caught up with thebrothers and arrested the suspects.

Several awards were given for quickthinking, but Kimberly Potts ofBloomington received a CommunityCommitment Award for her awarenesswhile on the job.

Potts, who works for a Bloomingtoncheck-cashing establishment, recognized

that an elderly man was cashing severalchecks and turning the money over to awoman that accompanied him. Out of con-cern for him, she questioned the man abouthis transactions and was told he was loan-ing money to people who promised to payhim back.

Potts called Bloomington police whoinvestigated the report and determined theman had been bilked out of more than$160,000. The perpetrator was convicted onfour counts of financial exploitation as aresult of Potts’ concern and willingness tobecome involved.

Among the Bloomington police officersrecognized during the ceremony were agroup who responded to an apartment fireFeb. 8.

The eight officers received theDepartment Commendation Medal fortheir actions at the scene. The early morn-ing fire engulfed the apartment building,trapping several residents inside theirapartments on the second or third floor.Officers caught several children who werethrown out of apartment windows, as wellas adults who jumped out of the building,until fire department ladders were avail-able to help rescue the remaining residents.

Officer Daniel Murphy also received aDepartment Commendation Medal for hiswork in designing lockdown procedures forBloomington schools and pushing for thestate statute that mandates lockdown drillsin all Minnesota schools. His expertise isalso responsible for the design and imple-mentation of lockdown procedures at Mallof America. The mall conducted a lock-down drill in November 2009.

“The officers who serve at BloomingtonPolice Department do great work eachevery day to serve the citizens ofBloomington,” according to Police ChiefJeff Potts. “Sometimes their actions are soextraordinary that they deserve formalrecognition. There are also many occasionswhen our citizens do great things and theydeserve that same recognition.,” he added.

Bloomington duo arrested for credit card fraudUse of EBT cardresulted in arrestsBY MIKE HANKS • SUN NEWSPAPERS

A forgotten wallet may have pro-duced a windfall for a Bloomingtonduo, if only they had remembered thatthey were leaving electronic footsteps.

The duo, arrested last week, wasshopping at Walmart May 15. Theywere making a purchase using thestore’s self-service checkout registers,according to Bloomington PoliceCommander Mark Stehlik.

A customer using a different regis-ter finished a transaction and left thestore, leaving a wallet at the register,according to surveillance video. Thevideo shows a 47-year-old Bloomingtonman picking up the wallet, Stehliksaid.

After the man picked up the wallethe temporarily left the store, returningto join a 35-year-old Bloomingtonwoman, Stehlik explained.

The duo then left the store.Financial records for a credit card in

the wallet show it was used to makepurchases at a Holiday Stationstore for$110, a Best Buy for $176 and a Chipotlefor $26, Stehlik said. Surveillance videoshowed the woman using the card tomake the Best Buy purchase, he noted.

A Bloomington investigator wasable to determine the identity of thesuspects through their Walmart trans-action since the woman paid for $46worth of groceries using an EBT cardissued in her name, Stehlik explained.

Upon questioning the womanclaimed she didn’t know the card wasstolen, despite having signed for theBest Buy purchase using the cardhold-er’s name. The man initially said thewoman took the wallet, but after beingshown surveillance video he claimedhe was attempting to locate the wallet’sowner when he left the store with it,Stehlik said.

Laptop theftThree laptop computers were stolen

from a Bloomington office building, thelatest in a string of similar thefts.

Bloomington Police received a secu-rity alarm report just before 11 p.m.

June 17, according to Stehlik. Officersarrived three minutes after the call wasreceived from the alarm company,which placed the call two minutes aftera second alarm was tripped at Smith &Nephew, 4801 W. 81st St., he said.

Officers responding to the scenefound the doors to the business werelocked, and there was no sign of forcedentry. The business reported the lap-tops missing on the morning of June20. It appeared that the perpetratorused a tool to manipulate the lock ofthe rear door and gain access to theoffice, likely leaving through the frontdoor of the building and setting off asecond alarm, Stehlik explained.

Burglary chargeA 15-year-old Minneapolis boy who

had been cited for trespassing at Mallof America eight times faces a third-degree burglary charge after beingcaught with what appeared to be stolenmerchandise.

The boy was arrested June 20 afterhe and a 19-year-old Columbia Heightsman were spotted inside the mall by aBloomington police officer. The officer

recognized the boy because of his mul-tiple trespassing violations and beganto follow the duo. The boy fled the mallwith a bag and was stopped by police.He was in possession of two hats thathad tears in them that appeared to bewhere store security tags had beenattached, Stehlik explained.

The Columbia Heights man wasstopped separately and found to bewearing a shirt that was torn near thecollar, Stehlik noted.

The man was cited for possession ofstolen property and released. The boywas arrested for burglary because ofthe trespassing citations against him.Instead of being charged with shoplift-ing, a misdemeanor, the boy faces apossible felony count, Stehlik noted.

Shoplifting arrestA 49-year-old Des Moines, Iowa,

woman was arrested for shopliftingand contributing to the delinquency ofa minor at Walmart June 21.

The woman and a 12-year-old boywere arrested after they were observed

Take safety measures when using fireworks

The Independence Day holiday bringsmany backyard celebrations and fire-works displays. Several guidelinesshould be followed when using pyrotech-nics.

“Nothing that is legal in this stateshould explode or fly,” according toBloomington Fire Chief Ulie Seal. “If itgoes bang or boom, it’s illegal.”

Legal fireworks in Minnesota includewire or wood sparklers, a variety offountains that emit sparks or smoke,including devices that spin on theground or attached to a post or tree by anail or a string, and illuminating torch-es.

Illegal fireworks include firecrackersof any size, rockets and Roman candles.

Although there are legal fireworks inMinnesota, their use is prohibited onpublic property, according to the statefire marshal’s website.

Following a wet spring, it is less like-ly fireworks will start a grass fire thisyear, but it’s still important to have awater source handy to extinguish fire-works or anything that ignites as aresult of fireworks, according to Seal.And safety precautions should be takenwhen using fireworks, including“parental supervision for the kids,” headded.

Whose stupid idea were fireworks anyway?For more than 30 years as a

journalist, I have been listen-ing to police and fire officialstell me fireworks are danger-ous. Once a topic is repeatedthat many times, you tend tobegin believing it.

We’re not talking about thebig bang theory commercialfireworks displays cities planeach year on the Fourth ofJuly. These are the little ones,the dangerous ones, the onesthat will rip your finger off andburn your skin.

Mostly fireworks were ille-gal in Minnesota for a verylong time. There were alwaysthose scofflaws who trekkedacross into Wisconsin to buytheir fireworks, brought themback home and started housefires, of course.

But then along came JesseVentura. The number of piecesof legacy legislation from theVentura administration can becounted on one hand – a handwith two fingers blown off by

fireworks.Gov. Ventura decided that

since he liked fireworks and hethought it was a good thing(despite what public safetyexperts had to say), everyoneshould have access to fire-works.

The problem with the law isthat most people take it tomean that fireworks are legalyear-round in Minnesota.From the balcony of our home,we hear them being fired off(mostly the illegal variety)most weeks of the year. Yeseven in the dead of winter.

I’m sure if we were to goback into the annals of firecalls over the years since thefireworks laws were relaxed we

could find our share ofinjuries, fires and general may-hem. It’s too bad that cities andcounties can’t send the bill forinvestigating these mishaps toVentura personally.

All that being said, I have toadmit that as a child I had anaffinity for things that explod-ed loudly and left large plumesof smoke. I have a couple scarson my hands to attest to my fas-cination.

I can remember placinglarge caches of Black Cat fire-crackers in a coffee can andlighting the fuse. The echofrom the can was a major plusfactor.

My mother particularlycouldn’t say too much becauseher mother – my grandma –was also a fireworks fan. Eachyear my grandparents’ backyard was the scene of one veryspectacular fireworks display. Ihave a few cousins who alsohave permanent scars on theirfingers from those little adven-

tures.But I digress.My hope is that in the 40 or

so years since I was a child wehave learned that no matterhow big the attraction, somecelebratory items should notbe an option. Fireworks in thehands of young fools is one ofthose.

For the life of me I cannotunderstand why this traditionremains. Fireworks wereinvented by the Chinese so howdoes that make them the cen-terpiece of an American inde-pendence celebration? Heckwe’re in debt up to our eyeballsto the Chinese. Surely there’ssomething more American wecan choose to replace fireworks– at least the kind that causechildren to be injured andscarred and start fires.

Whether you’re a fan orwish all of the fireworks in theworld would go up in one bigball of fire, have a great Fourthof July weekend. Be safe.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Raising tobacco tax has multiple benefitsTo the editor:

Before cutting essential health andhuman services programs, I urgestate lawmakers to consider raising atleast one tax that will actually benefitthe community – the state tobaccotax.

The public health benefits are wellestablished. Increasing the price oftobacco products discourages use,especially among youth. Many smok-ers quit, others cut back. As a PhilipMorris executive explains, “…price…is the main driving force for quit-ting.”

With tobacco the leading cause ofcancer and heart disease, taxpayersshould stop subsidizing smoking.Last year, Minnesota raised $385 mil-lion through tobacco taxes and fees.

But we spent more than $465 millionto pay for tobacco-related medicalcosts incurred by Medicaid alone. Inaddition, even if you don’t smoke, youpay $554 a year for everyone who does.So we would all be better off if ourstate of Minnesota would initiate thistax more as in incentive to urge oursmoking population to stop the habit.This works.

Up to the very end of session,Bloomington’s own Rep. AnnLenczewski advocated for including atobacco tax as part of the budget solu-tion. I thank her for that. Even if weweren’t in a budget crisis, an increasein the price of tobacco would makesense. In the current budget climate,it’s a no-brainer.

Bloomington plans,best it can, for state

government shutdownBY MIKE HANKS • SUN NEWSPAPERS

Should state government go intoshutdown mode as a result of the budgetbattle that continued to play out thisweek, Bloomington residents will dealwith the many repercussions of thestalemate, but the affect upon city gov-ernment operations should be minimal.

The governor and legislature havebeen in disagreement about how to closea $5 billion budget deficit, a deficit thatwill result in the suspension of a widearray of state services without a resolu-tion by July 1. State parks will close, restareas along the interstates will close anda variety of state-issued licenses andinspections will come to a halt without abudget agreement.

City officials have been planning forthe uncertain consequences of a stategovernment shutdown, according toPublic Works Director Karl Keel.

Bloomington isn’t a beneficiary ofstate-aid dollars. Although that’s nottypically considered to be advantageous,if the checks aren’t issued to benefittingcities because of a shutdown,Bloomington’s operations won’t beaffected. “We’re not in the position tohave to worry about that,” Keel said.

If the city needs to float short-termloans within its funds to sustain pro-grams that rely upon state dollars, it willdo so, Keel added.

The biggest impact for Bloomingtonresidents may very well be felt long afterthe shutdown begins, or ends.

Construction at the interchange ofHighway 169 and Interstate 494 will like-ly come to a halt, creating a roadblockfor a project that has an aggressivetimetable for completion.

Road construction is unlikely to bedeemed an essential service during thegovernment shutdown, sidelining stateemployees responsible for decisions thatare made as the project progresses, aswell as suspending the issuance ofchecks to the project contractor, Keelexplained.

The shutdown would serve as a dou-ble whammy to the project. The delaywould set the project back and halt itduring the summer construction season,he added.

Local projects will also be affected bythe shutdown, according to Keel. A localproject would be delayed if there were aright-of-way issue that requires theapproval of a state employee who isunavailable during the shutdown, hesaid.

One such project that was up againstthe clock this week is 106th Street underInterstate 35W, Keel noted. Because ofstate right-of-way there, MinnesotaDepartment of Transportation has astake in the project and provides over-sight. Without an available state official,the project faces a delay. The contractorhas been working to finish as muchwork as possible prior to the possibleshutdown, Keel said.

Bloomington author honors dad with latest bookBY MATTHEW HANKEY • SUN NEWSPAPERS

Getting thoughts onto paper can be acathartic and healing exercise.

For class of ‘98 Eagan High Schoolalum Tyrel Nelson, this process not onlyhelped him publish his third book, butalso provided an outlet to deal with hisgrief following the passing of his fatherthis past Valentine’s Day.

“Those Darn Stripes” is a 94-page col-lection of personal short stories pub-lished May 11 by CreateSpace, anInternet-based publishing service.Nelson’s first two books largely dealtwith his travels in Central and SouthAmerica, but his latest publication takeson a different tone. In doing so, Nelsonsays the book’s title reflects the growinghonesty he used in crafting it.

“My original intention with this proj-ect was to reveal more of myself, and Ibelieved that if I was going to do so, Ihad to show all of my stripes, whetherthey were pleasing, embarrassing, orjust plain ugly,” the 31-year-old said.

Nelson had completed more than 15stories for this book when he found outthat his father, Jay Nelson, had beendiagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic can-cer in last October. Chapters 18-25 of“Those Darn Stripes” deal with Nelson’slife after receiving the news.

“I was with him every day until hepassed away,” Nelson said. “I’m verylucky to have had those last four monthswith him.”

Nelson graduated from the

University of Minnesota with a bache-lor’s in journalism and Spanish Studiesin 2003. He lives in Bloomington with hisgirlfriend, Alyssa Nier.

Nelson met Nier on a Habitat for

Humanity trip to Guatemala in 2010.The two had never met before, but endedup spending roughly 36 hours alonetogether during layovers and the flightto Central America, Nier said. They’ve

been inseparable ever since.“I love it,” Nier said of the book.

“Every time I read it, it makes me crybecause I think of his dad.”

Nier said Nelson pays attention to thedetails in stories, which give them a per-sonal touch.

“He actually goes through his storiesand counts how many times he used cer-tain words,” Nier said. “He really playsaround with the words to make thestory.”

Writing the book helped Nelson cometo terms with what he had felt duringthose last few months of his dad’s life.The book was largely written as tributeto his dad, whom he also dedicated it to.He encourages people to read the book tounderstand the impact his father had onhis son’s life.

“I feel the world lost this wonderfulman, and I wanted to share that with thereaders,” Nelson said.

Lena Luckritz met Nelson when thetwo studied abroad in Venezuela in 2002as college students. She said the honestyand emotion he put into this novelshould resonate with readers.

“I think it’s an excellent book,”Luckritz said. “Anyone can really relateto it – anyone going through loss of anykind. It’s comforting to read it.”

Nelson had worked for the St. PaulPublic Schools foundation betweenNovember 2009 to December 2010 as partof the Volunteers in Service to America

Eagan High school graduate Tyrel Nelson recently completed his third book, “Those Darn Stripes,”which was published May 11. The book is a collection of 25 short stories from Nelson’s life and honorshis late father, Jay Nelson, who passed away this past Valentine’s Day. (Submitted photo)

How does your chimney look? Are the bricks crumbling?Does it have White or Black exterior staining? Are you afraidto use your fireplace because you’re not sure how safe it is?When was the last time you used it?

The professionals at AirBroom Minnesota Fireplace andAir Duct Cleaning in Excelsior can restore both your con-fidence and your chimney. Did you know that water causesmore damage to masonry chimneys than fire? Your chimney,unlike other parts of your house, is constantly exposed to theelements. They are generally constructed of brick, mortar, tile,steel, and iron. All of these materials suffer deterioration as aresult of prolonged contact with water. Freeze and thaw cyclesso familiar here in the Twin Cities cause stress on the chimney.Water that has penetrated expands and contracts. Leftunchecked it will cause interior and exterior damage to yourhome and masonry chimney. Some of the damage that can becaused includes: 1) spalled and broken exterior brickwork, 2)deteriorated masonry and metal firebox assemblies, 3) rusteddampers, 4) decayed mortar, cracked or missing flue liners, andin the worst case scenario damage to adjoining walls, ceilings,and woodwork.

There are three main ways to prevent water damage.

1) Install a chimney cap. This is the most inexpensivemeasure to prevent water penetration to the flue and insidechimney elements. We sell and install locally manufacturedcaps for as little as $99.

2) Repair or replace a damaged chimney crown. The crown sits atop your chimney and covers and seals it fromthe flue liners to the chimney edge. Many chimneys are builtwith an inadequate crown constructed from common mortarmix. Mortar is not designed for and will not withstand years ofprolonged moisture exposure without cracking and chippingwhich allows water to penetrate the chimney. A proper crown

is constructed of a Portland cement mixture and formed to pro-vide an overhang drip edge. This assures the water will shedhelping to prevent erosion in the mortar and brick of the chim-neys surfaces. Keeping the crown “watertight” and sheddingaway from the sponge like masonry elements that the chimneyis built of is the most important element to preventing deterio-ration. At AirBroom Minnesota we use the industry leadingline of Saver products to build and repair chimneys. Use ofthese products allows us to pass on manufacturers materialwarranties of up to 15 years to our clients.

3) Waterproof your masonry chimney and crown.Most masonry is porous and will absorb large amounts ofwater. Brick acts like a sponge absorbing water and wicking itto the chimney interior. Products we use are specifically devel-oped for use as waterproofing agents on masonry chimneys.These are vapor permeable – which means they allow themasonry to breath out but not in. This allows water that haspenetrated the chimney to escape while preventing additionalwater from entering from the outside. Non vapor permeablesealers commonly available should never be used because theytrap moisture inside actually accelerating deterioration. Weuse a special permeable sealer with a 10 year consumer war-ranty to protect your chimney. Doing this before deteriorationoccurs can save you hundreds or even thousands of dollars infuture repairs. Water damage to chimneys is usually a slowsubtle process. The problem is generally not obvious until ithas become quite serious. Although these prevention measuresmay cost you a few dollars they can save you a lot more by pre-venting large future masonry repairs.

Planning for a shutdown does-n’t answer many questions thatwould be raised by it, according toKeel. Stoplights at freeway inter-changes, such as Penn Avenue andInterstate 494, are the state’sresponsibility. If stoplights fail atsuch an intersection, who wouldresolve the problem is unclear.“One would hope maintenance oftraffic is considered an essentialservice,” he said.

Many state driver’s licensebureaus will close since therewon’t be state employees toprocess paperwork during a shut-down, Keel noted. Bloomingtonplans to keep its motor vehicleoffice open, however, even thoughthe services available through itwill be limited by the shutdown,he added.

With the scope of the shutdownuncertain, city officials have hadto make educated guesses as theyprepare for the loss of state servic-es. In the end “there’s going to besomething that we haven’t antici-pated,” Keel said.

Suspect in high-end Edina burglaries in custodyBY KATIE MINTZ • SUN NEWSPAPERS

The suspect in a handful of recent Edinaburglaries involving cut phone lines is incustody and will likely face multiple chargesin multiple jurisdictions.

Stewart Eugene Pesheck, 42, ofMinneapolis was charged Friday, June 10, inHennepin County District Court with onefelony count of second-degree attempted bur-glary in relation to a Minneapolis incident. Heis being held in Hennepin County Jail.

Edina police Det. Dave Carlson confirmedPesheck is the suspect in seven Edina burgla-ries that occurred between April 1 and May31. Carlson said he was awaiting forensic evi-dence in the Edina cases.

“I’m in the process of preparing the casesto be presented to the Hennepin CountyAttorney’s Office for charging,” Carlsonsaid.

The Edina Police Department workedwith the Hennepin County Sheriff ’s Officeand the Minneapolis and Maplewood policedepartments to apprehend Pesheck, he said.

Maplewood Police Department DeputyChief Dave Kvam said his departmentarrested Pesheck Thursday, June 9, in southMinneapolis while executing a search war-rant on a home and vehicle. He said therewas also a warrant for Pesheck’s arrest fromanother jurisdiction in an unrelated case.

“We became aware of him as a suspect in

one of our burglaries due to work done byEdina,” Kvam said. According to Kvam,Edina police recovered property linked to aMaplewood burglary during its investiga-tion.

When Maplewood executed the searchwarrant, they also recovered “stolen proper-ty that seems to relate to crimes in othercities in the west metro in Edina andMinneapolis,” Kvam said.

Kvam said Maplewood’s case is still underinvestigation and will be submitted to theRamsey County Attorney’s Office for poten-tial charges. He said he is not aware of otherMaplewood burglaries that are connected tothe suspect.

Last month, the Minneapolis PoliceDepartment asked for help identifying a manresponsible for “at least five sophisticatedhigh-end burglaries” in that city sinceJanuary. The Minneapolis cases alsoinvolved compromised alarm systems.

It was unclear if the Minneapolis PoliceDepartment would pursue charges in addi-tional burglaries. A call to spokesman Sgt.William Palmer was not immediatelyreturned.

According to the criminal complaint:Homeowners on the 2600 block of Lake of

the Isles Parkway East in Minneapolis calledMinneapolis police Tuesday,April 26,after find-ing their exterior video surveillance systemtampered with as well as the phone line cut.

The surveillance system recorded a suspi-cious person approach the front door andring the doorbell at approximately 10:35 a.m.A few minutes later the man walked aroundthe home, reached up and removed a securi-ty camera near the patio door. About an hourlater he returned to the service door andattempted to remove the security camerawhile covering his face with his hand. Hewas unsuccessful and is seen leaving thescene shortly after.

Officers published still photos of the sus-pect from the video. Five individuals calledand identified the suspect as Pesheck. Onecaller said Pesheck was storing stolen goodsin a garage in St. Louis Park.

Edina Police Department officersobserved Pesheck at the storage facility. Asubsequent search resulted in the recoveryof stolen property and papers in his name.

Another caller who identified Peshecktold officers he changed his appearance afterseeing himself in the videos. Edina officersconfirmed this, noting during surveillancehe had orange hair. Edina police initiallydescribed the suspect with black hair.

Officers made contact with theDepartment of Corrections, Shakopee,where Pesheck’s girlfriend currently residesand found he mailed her a newspaper clip-ping describing high-end burglaries wherepolice had released surveillance images of asuspect.

Free ‘dry humor’ comedyshow July 3 in New HopeBY SUE WEBBER • SUN NEWSPAPERS

Wild Bill Bauer is taking a chance thatplenty of people may be doing “stayca-tions” for the coming July 4th weekend.He figures they will be looking for some-thing fun to do.

Bauer will be emceeing “Dry Humor –The Sobriety Show,” 8 p.m. Sunday, July 3,at the New Hope Cinema Grill, 2749Winnetka Ave. N., New Hope.

The price is right. Admission is free,though Bauer will pass the hat to collectmoney for the comedians he’s booked –Kathy Ladman and Michael Thorne, plusBauer himself and “a couple of surpriseguests.”

“I’m asking the owner of the NewHope Cinema Grill to give up his liquorsales for a night,” said Bauer, who cele-brated his own 27th anniversary of being“clean and sober” on June 17.

“I stopped even thinking about drink-ing 15 years ago,” he said.

But, he said, “A lot of guys have justquit drinking, and a lot of them don’t

have jobs. I’ve given that a lot of thought.Google sober entertainment sometime,and you’ll be surprised how little pops up.If you’re sober, your entertainmentoptions are limited to movies.”

Bauer grew up in the Twin Cities,attended DeLaSalle High School and theUniversity of Minnesota and always wasa fan of comedy.

Actor/comedian Tom Arnold was oneof his early sidekicks, along with AlexCole.

Bauer, Arnold, Cole and comediansLouie Anderson and Scott Hansonappeared together early on, Bauer said.

“I went to Los Angeles for seven yearsthen and enjoyed it,” Bauer said. “Butunless you’re a star, it’s not fun to live inLA.”

He’s been back in the Twin Cities for 10years, doing comedy shows, includingsome national shows. Bauer is a radiofavorite on the nationally syndicated“Bob and Tom Show,” which is broadcast

posing is a multi-story parking ramp.Financing isn’t an issue. The four-levelramp will be funded by students and full-time faculty, at a cost of up to $14 million. Itsdesign is not an issue, either, as the rampcan be built on an existing campus parkinglot and conform to the city’s codes and reg-ulations.

The challenge the college andBloomington City Council members face isfinding a location for the ramp that nearbyresidents won’t object to.

The council reviewed the proposal at itsJune 20 meeting. The council also heardobjections from several residents whoexpressed concern about the proposed loca-tion. Concerns about noise, lighting andaesthetics were enough to convince thecouncil the proposal was worth anotherlook. College officials concurred, agreeingto revisit its proposal with an eye towardreceiving the city’s approval Aug. 1.

Campus growthThe parking ramp will provide more

than 400 additional parking spaces for thecampus, in connection with the opening ofthe Academic Partnership Center, an exten-sion of the existing campus. The AcademicPartnership Center will be a three-story, 27-classroom expansion attached to the KoppCenter in the northwest area of the cam-pus. It will be “a pretty standard academicclassroom facility,” according to Ed Wines,the vice president of finance and opera-tions for Normandale. The expansion willalso include a computer lab for studentsand additional office space for teachers and

administrators, he added.It’s an expansion that is needed, accord-

ing to Wines. The campus is over capacity,with most classrooms occupied throughoutthe week during the academic year. Theexpansion will not only provide additionalclassroom space, it will “fulfill MnSCU’s(Minnesota State Colleges andUniversities) needs in permitting this cam-pus to become a host campus for four-yeardegrees offered by Mankato and other stateuniversities,” according to Wines. The cam-pus already serves as a satellite location forMankato’s elementary education program,he noted.

The Academic Partnership Center hasbeen approved by the college’s board oftrustees at a cost of about $24 million,Wines said. The bonds for its construction,however, require state legislative approval.The project is on Gov. Mark Dayton’s list forfunding. If that happens yet this year, con-struction will begin with a projected open-

ing of January 2013. If it doesn’t happenuntil 2012, that pushes out the 15-monthconstruction period another year, meaninga January 2014 opening, Wines explained.

Whenever the Academic PartnershipCenter opens, the campus will need to haveadditional parking in place. The ramp wasproposed because the campus has nowhereelse to develop surface parking and cannotprovide offsite parking that falls within the500 feet required by the city, according toWines. “We have room to go up,” he said,“but we have very little real estate to buildmore surface parking.”

The proposed location for the ramp isthe result of multiple studies that took intoconsideration traffic and storm water man-agement, Wines said. The college formed adesign advisory committee to study the pos-sible location, determining a lot that isused partially for staff parking near theintersection of Collegeview and Littleroads was the best location. In response toresidential concerns about the proposal thecollege agreed to include neighborhood rep-resentatives as part of its design advisorycommittee and review issues such as light-ing, noise and landscaping.

NOTICE OF FINDING OF NOSIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON THE

ENVIRONMENT ANDNOTICE OF INTENT TO REQUEST

RELEASE OF FUNDSTier I Environmental Assessment

Hennepin CountyDate Published: June 30, 2011

TO ALL INTERESTED PARTIES,GROUPS AND PERSONS:

The purpose of this notice is to identifytwo separate but related actions to be un-dertaken by Hennepin County. On orabout July 18, 2011, Hennepin Countywill request that the U.S. Department ofHousing and Urban Development (HUD)release HOME Investment PartnershipProgram (HOME) funds under Title II ofthe National Affordable Housing Act toundertake a project known as Neighbor-hood Rehabilitation Loan Program(NRLP) as described below:

A Tier One Review has been completedso the Bloomington Housing and Rede-velopment Authority will provide homeimprovement loans in a target neighbor-hood to homeowners for improvementsto meet local codes, ordinances and re-habilitation standards. Homeownersmust occupy the home and be at or below80% of the HUD median income. The tar-get area within the City of Bloomingtonwill include residential portions within theboundaries of Highway 35W to the West,Highway 77 to the East, 494 to the Northand the Minnesota River to the South.Funding for the NRLP Program will in-clude $250,000 of federal HOME fundsand matching City funds of $250,000 fora total amount of $500,000. Funding willbe for loans up to $35,000.

FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT

It has been determined that such a re-quest for release of funds will not consti-tute an activity significantly affecting thequality of the human environment and,accordingly, Hennepin County has decid-ed not to prepare an Environmental Im-pact Statement under the National Envi-ronmental Policy Act of 1969 (PL91-190).The reasons for the decision not to pre-pare such Statement are as follows; (a)the review determined that no significantenvironmental effects will result and (b)the proposed project is consistent with allapplicable local, state and federal regu-lations. An Environmental ReviewRecord has been established for this pro-ject that documents the environmentalreview of the project and more fully setsforth the reasons why such Statement isnot required. The Environmental ReviewRecord is on file and available for publicexamination and copying, upon request,at the office of Hennepin County Hous-ing, Community Works & Transit, 417North Fifth Street, Suite 320, Minneapo-lis, Minnesota, 55401-1362, telephone612-348-2205, between the hours of

8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday throughFriday. No further environmental reviewof this project is proposed to be conduct-ed prior to the request for release offunds.

PUBLIC COMMENTS ON FINDING

Any individual, group, or agency maysubmit written comments on the Environ-mental Review Record for considerationby Hennepin County to the office of theundersigned. Such written comments willbe accepted until July15, 2011. All suchcomments so received will be consideredand Hennepin County will not request therelease of Federal funds or take any ad-ministrative action on the project prior tothe date specified in the preceding sen-tence.

RELEASE OF FUNDS

Hennepin County, as the eligible grantee,will provide financial assistance to theproject described above with HUD fundsfrom the HOME Investment PartnershipProgram funds under Title II of the Na-tional Affordable Housing Act as amend-ed. Hennepin County certifies to HUDthat Richard P. Johnson, in his official ca-pacity as County Administrator, consentsto accept the jurisdiction of the federalcourts if an action is brought to enforceresponsibilities in relation to environmen-tal review process and that these re-sponsibilities have been satisfied. HUD’sapproval of the certification satisfies itsresponsibilities under the National Envi-ronmental Policy Act of 1969.and relatedlaws and authorities, and allows Hen-nepin County to use HOME Programfunds.

OBJECTIONS TO RELEASE OFFUNDS

HUD will accept objections to its releaseof funds and the Hennepin County certi-fication for a period of fifteen days follow-ing the anticipated submission date or itsactual receipt of the request (whicheveris later) only if they are on one of the fol-lowing bases:

(a) the certification was not executed bythe Certifying Officer of Hennepin Coun-ty; (b) Hennepin County has omitted astep or failed to make a decision or find-ing required by HUD regulations at 24CFR Part 58; (c) the grant recipient hascommitted funds or incurred costs notauthorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before ap-proval of a release of funds by HUD; or(d)another Federal agency acting pur-suant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submit-ted a written finding that the project is un-satisfactory from the standpoint of envi-ronmental quality. Objections must beprepared and submitted in accordancewith the required procedure (24 CFR Part58) and shall be addressed to HUD grantadministration office at 920 Second Av-enue South, Suite 1300, Minneapolis,Minnesota 55402.

to play with a lot of friends from other highschools in the area.”

“Marcus deservead all the honors hereceived in high school,” said Jeffersonhead basketball coach Jeff Evens. “He wasa pleasure to coach and always had an opti-mistic attitude.”
