City of Verona

Council agrees on commission rep

Jim Ferolie
Verona Press editor Yurs

It will be two weeks or so before the Common Council is back to eight members, but

at least they have taken care of the contentious Plan Commission spot. It still took two rounds of votes to find the needed supermajority, but the discussion and voting all was done in good humor and was even comical at times. In the

end, Ald. Dale Yurs (Dist. 2) got a unanimous nod to represent the council for the coveted spot. Yurs, who had earned five votes during the previous council meeting, was one of six people to express interest in the position, which was vacated in an April

election defeat by Steve Ritt after six years. After four 4-3 votes for different candidates at the April 16 council reorganization meeting and two 5-3 votes for Yurs against to different opponents April 22, the council appeared to

be at an impasse. Four days later, one of Yurs competitors for the spot, Jeremy Charles, announced his resignation, citing the frustration of dealing with what he saw as a

Mayor Jon Hochkammer will accept applications until Friday for the District 4 Common Council spot that has been open since Jeremy Charles resigned April 26. Hochkammer told the council Monday he has heard from at least seven people with interest in the position. He said anyone who would like to express interest in serving the remaining one year of the two-year term should submit the request in writing. Depending on the number of candidates, Hochkammer said, he will interview them, along with council president Ald. Mac McGilvray (Dist. 1) and the other District 4 alder, Heather Reekie. The council meets two Mondays a month, but alders are also expected to serve on multiple committees and commissions and are paid a small salary. The opening is posted on the citys website, ci.verona.wi.us. The city is seeking applicants for a Library Board position that became vacant the same day, also due to a sudden resignation. The Library Board meets on the first Wednesday of each month.

Epic still hasnt submitted any building plans for Campus 4 and Campus 5, but the location of the parking garage and the ramps off Northern Lights give a good indication of where the buildings likely will be placed. The road and intersection are approximate locations.

Epic plans reach first goal

Several steps remain, but council approval was the biggest hurdle
Jim Ferolie
Verona Press editor

As alders began discussing the first of three votes Monday required to allow Epic Systems Corp. to begin building its two newest sets of buildings, one of the first questions was who had dissented with the Plan Commissions recommendation the week before and why. The answer, as city planning director Adam Sayre reported, was former alder Jack Linder, who lives just a few blocks from where Campus 5

is planned to go. But the concerns Linder had expressed had little to do with the neighborhood and were instead about the timing of the approvals and the possibility of the city locking itself into inadvertently allowing some other kind of development by rezoning the land should Epics deal with the landowner fall through. No commissioners registered complaints with the placement of the new road or the berm that would block it from Linders neighborhood or even the idea of Epic building to the east, into land that before Monday was planned for a residential subdivision. Nobody from the public had spoken at any of the public hearings, either, a significant change from the outcry the original plan had gotten from

neighbors in December. That was all a big relief for Ald. Scott Manley (Dist. 2), who had gotten an earful himself back then. I received a lot of very strong, negative reaction from people in District 2, he said. I was persuaded that thats maybe something we shouldnt do. But Epic modified that original proposal after it and the city each held public forums and smaller group meetings to discuss the plans with neighbors. As the process evolved, Manley said, its fair to say that a lot of the people who were originally opposed the project changed their mind and became supportive of it.

Since the untimely death of a 93-year-old resident of Four Winds Lodge two months ago, the assisted living facility has installed exit alarms on all doors and a variety of other security measures. But a state-issued report released Monday concluded the facility did not provide the needed supervision to Edna Biederman on the night she walked out of Four Winds and froze to death, and the state fined the facility $845 for not complying with proper protocols. Four Winds administrator Lynn Howard told the Verona Press on Tuesday that Biedermans death was an unfortunate event, and she defended the staff and procedures she had in place at the time. She said her teams annual clinical assessment determined that the woman was not a wander risk despite speaking of going home multiple times as recently as three days before the incident and walking toward the door wearing boots. The state Department of Health Services investigation disagreed, noting that the woman had activated power of attorney and was diagnosed with Alzheimers disease and said she had shown wandering and exit-seeking

Cleary recognized as states Family Business of the Year

Verona-based Cleary Building Corp. has won one of the Wisconsin Family Business of the Year awards, according to a press release. The awards ceremony last week honored nine family businesses, including Cleary, selected by an independent panel of judges. We are honored to receive this award, said Cleary president Sean Cleary in the release. One of the Sean Cleary things I have worked very hard at in our organization is culture. It started with family and it turned into team. Were (Cleary employees) just down to earth people trying to work really hard. We are very driven and very intense on trying to get it right, which is why were unbelievably proud to receive this award. Now in its 10th year, the Wisconsin Family Business of the Year Award is an annual awards program sponsored by several financial and legal firms. A panel of judges drawn from family-owned businesses, consultants, government and business media review nominations and consider those business contributions to their communities and industry, positive links between family and business and innovative practices it may use, among other things, according to the award website. Cleary was among the half-dozen businesses that received a Special Award. Three others were recognized with a Grand Award in small, medium and large company categories. Judges praised Clearys strong customer service. The company president, for example, is copied on any complaint received, and within 30 minutes of its receipt, the companys Complaints Committee is required to have a preliminary diagnosis of the situation, and contact the client with a solution to the problem, according to the press release. Sean Cleary also created a detailed customer service process called the Shamrock Service Guarantee to ensure every project runs on time and with the quality every client deserves, while employees undergo special training. Each Special Award carries a title, and Clearys award was named the Shamrock Pride honor. Founded by Tom Cleary in 1978, Cleary started as a small post-frame building in Verona. Today, it stands as a successful national company with 80 offices nationwide and about 900 employees. The company has a very strong presence in agricultural buildings but also manufactures commercial, residential and equine structures. They also build churches, garages and airplane hangars. Cleary was presented with its award during a May 9 ceremony at the Marriott West in Middleton.

Sugar Creeks Grandma turns 85

Rob Kitson
Verona Press correspondent

Orma Herfel received birthday wishes Monday from the students and staff of Sugar Creek Elementary School when the 34-year Verona Area School District cafeteria worker celebrated her 85th birthday. We are really going to try to make this day special for her, Sugar Creek principal Todd Brunner wrote in an email. But Herfel, who cleans dishes and serves in the schools cafeteria, remained modest and admitted in an interview with the Verona Press that she didnt want people to sing her Happy Birthday and didnt want to make a big deal of it. Still, to make the day special for Herfel, the school had a picnic there arent dishes to clean after a picnic where students wished Herfel a happy birthday and presented her a book of birthday wishes and a picture of all the students and staff.

Later, an after-school gathering for Herfel allowed retired and current staff to wish her well. The gathering had plenty of lemon-flavored food, according to Brunner, who also tried getting everybody to wear red, Herfels favorite color. Herfel, who can see Sugar Creek from her apartment, explained that the kids are the motivation driving her long career at the school. They call me Grandma, she said. The Sugar Creek staff is also a fan of Herfel. Brunner explained how a path from Herfels parking spot to the doors of the school are the first things shoveled every morning it snows. Herfel is one of the best things about this school, he said. Herfel reciprocated with Photo by Rob Kitson admiration for the school and Orma Herfel celebrated her 85th birthday this week. has no retirement date set. If I quit, I wouldnt be happy, she said.

Letters to the editor

Hwy. M traffic problems existed before Epic

There has been much complaining about the Epic traffic lately. Epic is not fully to blame in this issue. Hwy. M was a problem before Epic came to town. Why was Hwy. M not widened when all the housing development along Hwy. M and Mid Town Road started? Who thought that the existing two-lane roads could handle the amount of commuters that were added as more and more housing development and another golf course went up? Did any of the land developers or city traffic engineers give it any thought? Apparently not. Widening Hwy. PD and Nine Mound Road is going to do nothing if it all gets bottle-necked up on Hwy. M again. Before anything else is done and any more roundabouts are built, Hwy. M should be widened to a four-lane road, from Mineral Point Road all the way into Verona, and its 45 mph speed limit restored (because Id like to hit whoever lowered it). Ryan Miller Verona Editors note: Hwy. M is scheduled to be widened to four lanes from Mineral Point to just north of Cross Country Road. The project is being done in several phases, with the final phase scheduled to start in 2016.

John 17:21 horizon. He gave his famous House Divided speech to the Illinois Republican State Convention on June 16, 1858. In that speech, Lincoln quoted Jesus statement found in the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke) in which he says, A house divided against itself cannot stand. (Mark 3:25). Lincoln knew that a nation divided over the scourge of slavery and disunion could not endure. In this case, there could be no compromise. In order to survive, America must be one nation that is free for all people from sea to shining sea. For all of its terrible death and destruction, the Civil War was fought, in large part, to set people free. As King Solomon observed in his reflections on life in the book of Ecclesiastes, there is a time for war and a time for peace. (Eccl 3:8). Lincoln knew that a time for peace could not come until a nation that proclaimed in its Declaration of Independence that All men are created equal were free to pursue their own Godgiven destiny. King Solomon also concluded that there is A time to tear and a time to mend. A time to be quiet and a time to speak. (Eccl: 3:7). I am praying that we can enter a season of mending and quietness that will draw our community and nation together after a time of tearing down and contentious speech. We might not be in a civil war fought with guns, but our hurtful words and demeanor toward one another can lead to a house divided. Divisiveness is not confined to politics or ideologues. The Christian church is at odds on many doctrinal issues that define the orthodoxy of the multitude of denominations in Christendom. However, it is sad when Christians are perceived by the culture at large as being judgmental, aloof, uncaring, or worse, hateful. Dont get me wrong, doctrine is extremely important because it defines what we believe as defined by the Bible. But we can love and care for people wherever they are at in a way that doesnt compromise our beliefs. Jesus said, Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. (Matt 11:28). That seems like a good place to start when we are engaging with people who are struggling with issues in life. So how do we answer the question posed by my friend, Does everything have to be a fight? I guess that depends on the people involved in the issue. Certainly there is a place for debate, discussion and disagreement on policies that will affect the direction of our culture. But once the fight is over, it might be time to come back together for the betterment of all. That is what President Lincoln seemed to surmise in the conclusion to his second inaugural address at the tail end of the Civil War: With malice towards none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nations wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan-to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace, among ourselves, and with all nations. Peace be with you all! Mike Peters is pastor of The Church in Verona.

Verona native chosen queen of Syttende Mai

A Verona native who took her love of agriculture east has earned a once-in-a lifetime honor, as queen of Syttende Mai. The Stoughton festival, which translates from Norweigian as the 17th of May, refers to the signing of the Norwegian constitution in 1814 and the end of centuries of Danish rule. Stoughtons festival, which features two parades and a variety of stage, dance and musical performances, is generally considered to be larger than any Syttende Mai celebration in Norway. Each year it chooses a king and queen based on community contribution, and this years pick was Darlene Arneson known around here as the former Darlene Maurer and husband John. Darlene Arneson is the daughter of Jerry and Marilyn Maurer and a 1980 Verona High School graduate. She grew up on a farm on Maple Grove Drive, near the current Chavez Elementary School, and the couple was married at St. James Lutheran Church in Verona. The two represent a wide variety of organizations, including the Future Farmers of America and Stoughton FFA Alumni. Perhaps more to the point, the two are also respective presidents of the Sons of Norway Mandt Lodge and the Mandt Lodge Building Corporation, and Darlene has also worked with the Stoughton Norwegian Summit Group and Destination Stoughton Weekends. The Arnesons involvement with the Sons of Norway and FFA has kept them from enjoying all the different activities of Syttende Mai in past years, so Darlene said they are really looking forward to getting a chance to take part in the other events the weekend has to offer. The Arnesons have a full schedule throughout the week leading up to Syttende Mai. The couple will be visiting chamber members and local businesses throughout the week thanking them for their membership and support of Stoughton and will also be visiting all of the Stoughton elementary schools and attending different activities at the nursing home. This has been a pretty humbling experience, Darlene said. We just appreciate the community recognizing us as this years king and queen. Throughout the year, Stoughton residents nominate community members for the title. A board of 13 people then chooses the king and queen from the nominees, with their decision based on the couples contributions to the community, said Syttende Mai coordinator Laura Trotter. John and Darlene both grew up on farms and majored in agricultural education at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, teaching high school agriculture education and operating in a dairy partnership. The couple also both work in agricultural related jobs. John is a process operator for DuPont, and Darlene serves as Ag in the Classroom Coordinator and Foundation Director for Wisconsin Farm Bureau. While most of their free time is spent volunteering, John and Darlene love to old-time dance when they have the chance. John also spends time working on genealogy research on his Norwegian roots. With an intense interest in their Norwegian heritage, the Arnesons have continued to share their passion with their children, Lars, Jens and Sigrid, with their involvement in Sons of Norway and numerous trips to Norway.

County waste site opens

Dane Countys new, 4,500-square-foot Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facility opened May 1 and be available to county residents year-round. The facility, at 7102 U.S. Hwys. 12 and 18, in Madison, features expanded waste-handling capabilities and a much larger area for product exchange, according to a news release. Now the countys Clean Sweep program, where residents can bring in hazardous household materials such as oil-based paints, pesticides and poisons, household products with organic solvents, ignitables, and aerosols, and rechargeable batteries, will be available year-round. The county closed its old facility, on Fish Hatchery Road, in November 2012. Hours of operation are Tuesday through Friday, 7 a.m.-2:45 p.m. and Saturdays 8 a.m.-10:45 am. The countys program is one of the largest continuously operated household hazardous waste programs in the state, the release said. Since the opening of its first permanent seasonal facility in 1993, Dane County has captured over 10.8 million pounds of household hazardous waste.

How Failure Makes Us Stronger

We have the capacity to learn from our mistakes, and thus there is a great advantage in making some big mistakes early in life. Most people have a number of failed relationships before they find the love of their life. Those failed relationships help them to know what they are looking for in a mate. Failures in business may be costly, but they often lead to more profitable and better-run businesses in the future. Even in the realm of health, we see that getting sick often immunizes us against that particular disease in the future and broken bones heal themselves to become stronger than the original. It seems that we live in a universe that thrives on adversity. Stressing a muscle makes it stronger, and the bones attached to that muscle become stronger too. Character works on the same principle. Those who have been profoundly tested are usually the most robust and resilient. People born before the Great Depression and who then lived through it have a lower risk of becoming depressed than people born after the depression. Perhaps the stress and strain that many are living through now will bring out the best in them. Dont seek an easy life for you or your children. If you want them to be robust and resilient, let them experience a loss or failure every now and then. They just might thank you for it someday. Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. James 1:2-4

facing a big decision: Should you accept the lump sum or continue taking your monthly pension payments? You might be afraid that taking a lump sum would subject you to a big tax bill. But if you roll the money into a traditional IRA, you may be able to avoid paying taxes on those funds until you start your withdrawals. Consider your estate plans. Pension payments generally end when you and your spouse are gone, but with an IRA, you may still end up with something you can leave behind. Dont forget Matt Gerlach about ination. If your pension payments arent indexed for ination, theyll lose Financial Advisor purchasing power over time. Within your IRA, you can invest for growth potential, but remember that all investments are subject to some level of risk. Youre facing a big choice. Get all the facts, and then get some professional help from your nancial and tax advisors.

Repairing items prior to listing your property can improve how your property shows and minimize potential negotiating later. Keep in mind, the majority of buyers will still want their own independent inspection. The main objective of a pre-inspection is for your own information for repair and disclosure purposes.

him. A defendants refusal to submit to a breathalyzer test is a statement, which could be used in court to convince the jury that he did not take a breathalyzer because he had consumed alcohol. As such, the Supreme Court has ruled that it violates a defendants Fifth Amendment rights for the State to use his refusal to submit to a breathalyzer against him. Wisconsin drivers, on the other hand, have no constitutional right to refuse to take a breathalyzer test. State law requires a driver to take a breathalyzer or other test for intoxication when requested by a police ofcer. The reason for this statute is to identify and remove drunk drivers from the public roads in order to prevent accidents. The consequence for a driver refusing to take a breathalyzer test is that evidence of that refusal may be used in court against him. The bottom line is that you have a constitutional right to refuse an intoxication test so long as you are not driving.

Q. Can evidence that I refused to take a breathalyzer test be used against me in court? A. Typically, the Fifth Amendment prohibits the State from using a defendants statements against

Q. What should you do if a tooth gets knocked out in an accident? A. Spring is upon us and as so we and our children venture outside more and engage in those activities that we love like biking, boarding, baseball or soccer. Unfortunately, sometimes these activities lead to accidents. Time is your enemy when an accident or any trauma dislodges a tooth. First, locate that tooth or teeth and determine if it broke or if the entire tooth and root came out in one piece. Gather the tooth/ root and any pieces and get them to a dentist immediately. If the root can be reimplanted within 2 hours, the tooth has a chance. It may be possible to bond large pieces back as well. When transporting the tooth, Dr. Patrick Tepe, DDS do not touch the root or wrap it with a tissue or a cloth. If there is obvious dirt on the tooth, rinse gently with water but keep the tooth moist. If there is a dental rst aid kit nearby, use the HBSS solution to soak the tooth in (this preserves the tooth). Otherwise, milk is the next best storage solution, followed by saline (salt water), saliva or water. Rush the injured person and tooth to the dentist for reimplantation and splinting. This is a true dental emergency, if after regular business hours, call your dentist anyway. If you wait several hours there is little chance that the tooth can be put back in. If you cannot contact a dentist then go immediately to your nearest Urgent Care or Emergency Room.

How can I help him with this?

PRESCHOOL

Youre wise to work on this issue now before it becomes a bigger problem. Start by asking yourself how you react when your child makes a mistake. Are you calm? Accusatory? Disappointed? Your child needs to know that its OK to make mistakes and that they can be learning experiences. Set a good example by acknowledging your own mistakes in a calm manner and showing your child how to move on in a positive way.

experienced early in life can cause skin cancer in later years. However, damage caused by the suns rays is cumulative, spanning a persons entire lifetime in the sun. Knowing this, it may not be surprising to learn that cases of skin cancer among seniors are more prevalent than in the younger population. Skin cancer among seniors is a serious matter as over 50% of deaths associated with it occur in people over the age of 65. Perhaps this is because some older adults are not aware of the suns continuous damaging rays or think the danger of skin cancer is not as high as they age. Aging skin loses its ability to protect Stephen Rudolph FACHE, CSA itself so it is critical that seniors protect their skin from the sun. Wrinkles, decreased elasticity, age spots, dryness and other skin conditions make it harder to detect abnormal cancerous lesions. Seniors who develop melanoma are not as likely to have a good prognosis as younger generations. Early detection of melanoma can mean the difference between life and death. If a mole is raised, changes shape, has jagged edges, discolorations, signs of bleeding or you notice other skin abnormalities, a doctor should be seen immediately. While not all skin cancer lesions are malignant, it is important as a person ages to be proactive in detecting skin cancer. Regular self-examinations and yearly appointments with a health pro are crucial.

Q. Does the phase out of R-22 refrigerant mean that I must replace my

HEATING/COOLING

Q. Are there any tax benets for the Long Term Care (LTC) premiums we pay? A. Yes! Long Term Care premiums are (almost) ALWAYS deductible on your Wisconsin tax return. Its a rst-dollar deduction, the best kind. And for Federal tax purposes, business owners can generally deduct LTC premiums to the extent their business is protable. This gives LTC premiums the same treatment as health insurance for self-employed taxpayers and S Corporation owners. Medical expenses will be harder to deduct in 2013. Obamacare raises the hurdle for deducting medical expenses from 7.5% to 10% of Adjusted Gross Income for 2013. (Seniors over age 65 get a 4 year reprieve, until 2017, from this tax bite.) LTC premiums get around some of these limitations. So even if you cant use the LTC deduction on your federal tax return, be sure to alert your tax preparer about any LTC premiums you paid so you can get your Wisconsin deduction.

short answer is no, as long as your existing air conditioner is functioning. However the limits on R-22 production have significantly increased its cost. So if you have a system that needs to regularly get recharged, you should consider replacing it. The Bryant Evolution series air conditioners use Puron refrigerant, a more environmentally sound choice. These units are more efficient, quieter operating, and provide better dehumidification for added comfort. To learn more about Bryant air conditioners, contact Dave at OK Heating & Air Conditioning.

benets of participating in multiple sports and the increased amount of exercise is good for the child, but one must keep the following thoughts in mind. As a child grows and the bodys tissues develop, stress and strain to the growth plates of long bones, muscle and soft-tissue injuries, and over-use injuries are common and can contribute to chronic injury and pain. Many children specialize in a sport at an early age and are encouraged to pick a sport and excel in it (through school teams, recreational teams, private clubs, traveling teams, summer camps, etc). While this may build the sport-specic skill of the child, there is a loss of cross-training with this pattern, which commonly leads to an over-use injury. Proper conditioning, a combination of strength, exibility and core exercises, and building recovery time into the childs sports program will allow for continued enjoyment of being a multi-sport athlete without risking injury.

am getting a lot of pain in my neck when I am riding my bike. Would chiropractic or massage help with this?

A. Whether you are riding a recreational bike, road bike, or tri bike the neck is forced into a position that puts pressure on the posterior portion of the cervical spine. This position also forces the neck to remain in a state of continued contraction that can cause joint and muscle soreness. Chiropractic Jill Unwin, adjustments will help maintain healthy joint mobility and function. This DC, CCEP will help alleviate pain and will prolong your years of cycling. Therapeutic massage will help reduce muscle soreness and reduce any restrictions in the neck caused by that continued contraction. Along with regular chiropractic and massage, exercises would be recommended to help increase strength and mobility in your neck and upper back.

Q. What is Leptospira and should I vaccinate my dog for it? A. Leptospira is a bacteria that can cause kidney and liver failure in dogs. Dogs become infected by this bacteria when abraded skin comes into contact with infected urine or with water contaminated with infected urine. Bite wounds, reproductive secretions and even consumption of infected tissues can cause this infection. The organisms can quickly spread through the blood stream and accumulate in the liver or kidneys to cause failure of these organs. Dr. Christopher J. Voss, DVM Symptoms can include fever, depression, not wanting to eat, nausea, joint pain, excessive drinking, jaundice and bleeding problems. This infection can be treated by your veterinarian if treatment is started soon with antibiotics and intravenous uids. It is possible to prevent infection with a Leptospira vaccination at your annual check-up. The vaccination immunizes dogs against the ve most common strains of Leptospira.

The Verona boys golf teams performance last Wednesday and Thursday at the Morgan Stanley Shootout at Hawks Landing Golf Course bodes well if results continue for the Big Eight Conference meet and regionals. The Wildcats, ranked No. 8 in the Wisconsin High School Golf Association poll, finished first with a pair of 310s (620) to edge Madison Memorial, ranked No. 4, which shot a 318 and a 305 (623). Middleton, ranked No. 10, was third with a 317 and a 319 (631). Honorable mention Beloit Memorial wasnt at the meet but it shot a 321 at Beloit Invitational at Krueger Haskell Golf Course on May 3. So based on those scores, Verona would have taken first or second at the conference

Verona boys and girls track and field teams saw Tuesdays Big Eight Conference meet postponed to 5 p.m. Wednesday after a two-hour lightning delay. It was a fitting, albeit, a bizarre Boys

end to a spring unlike anything most coaches have seen. The postponement likely meant the cancellation of Wednesdays frosh/ soph conference race in Janesville. It left Verona seniors forced with the decision whether to attend Senior Awards night Wednesday or return to Lussier Stadium as Wildcat coaches were unsuccessful in trying to push the meets start time from 5 p.m. up to 4 to accommodate the award ceremony.

Yapp blasts Ridgeway

Luke Yapp homered twice as defending Home Talent League champion Verona rolled to a 13-0 win in seven innings, avenging last seasons only loss at Ridgeway. Yapp highlighted a five-run, first inning for the Cavaliers with a grand slam his first career HTL home run. We were hot right off the bat hitting today, Yapp said. I stayed short with my swing and was able to connect. It felt great. I love playing here with a short porch. Yapp (2-for-4) later added a two-run home run in the fourth inning. Derek Burgenske (3-for-4) added an RBI double in the second

inning and an RBI single in the third. Matt Peetz (2-for-4) also drove in pair of runs with RBI singles. Left-hander Ben Wallace worked six innings, allowing nine base runners on six hits and three walks. He struck out four before giving way to Nick Krohn in the bottom of the seventh. Ridgeway only threatened once in the game, loading the bases with a single and two walks with two outs in the sixth. Wallace worked out of the jam with an inningending ground out. Verona (2-0) hosts fellow undefeated Western Section rival Dodgeville at 1 p.m. this Sunday.

After a 0-3 start in the Big Eight Conference season, the Verona girls soccer team was in need of improvement if it was to move up in the standings and help its seed for the playoffs. The Wildcats did just that in the last few weeks, tying Middleton (April 30) and non-conference Oregon (May 7) and defeating Janesville Parker (May 2) and Madison La Follette (May 3). Verona (5-6-2 overall, 3-3-1 conference) continued its upward trend last Thursday with a 3-1 win over Madison East and last Friday a 2-1 win over non-conference Madison Edgewood.

The 4x200 relay of Carson Parks, Luke Lamberson, Josh Beckam, and Cameron Tindall finished seventh, which was the same spot the 4x400 relay finished with Ben Feller, Tucker Sanborn-Faris, Andrew Husbands, and Alex Anderson. The 4x800 of Erik Wickstrom, Ben Feller, Andrew Husbands and Alex Anderson finished in sixth place as well. Queoff hasnt even been the top jumper on his own team. Im sure its probably happened way back, but hes had me in everything the past couple of years, Queoff said of teammate Matt Dietlin, who finished third. Earlier in the meet Queoff leapt to fifth place in the triple jump, only to be bested by Dietlin, who took third with a huge PR of his own (42-11). Dietlin and teammate Ben Hansen vaulted to all-conference honors earlier in the meet, clearing 11-6 and 11 feet for fourth and fifth place, respectively. Tindall finished fifth in the 100-meter dash (11.60), while Hartnett took fifth in the 110 hurdles. Joe Pagura earned all-conference honors in the shot put (top three), while Adam Stiner did the same in the discus. Following a two hour lightning delay the meet was postponed to Wednesday through 14 of 18 events. Alt claimed the 4x100 relay in 53.47.

Golf: Baltes wins Morgan Stanley Shootout

Continued from page 11 meet. But with only 16 strokes separating the best and worst scores listed above, there is not much room for error, which is something head coach Jon Rebholz said last week following Veronas 9-0 Big Eight dual season. The tournament is at 8 a.m. Thursday at Evansville Golf Course. But the room for error gets even tighter at 9 a.m. Tuesday, May 21, at the Middleton regional at Pleasant View Golf Course. Not only are Madison Memorial and Middleton in Veronas regional, but honorable mention Stoughton, Waunakee and Sauk Prairie will be there as well. Oregon and Madison West round out the competition. Waunakee took fifth at the Morgan Stanley Shootout with a 320 and a 334, while Sauk Prairie shot a 317 at its season finale May 10 at the Reedsburg Invitational at Reedsburg Country Club. Stoughton has shot below 320 as well, and that means that if the winner shoots a 305, it might only be 12 strokes ahead of a fifth-place team. But with seniors Tyler Reinecke, Caleb Baltes and Matt Feller leading the way and juniors John Tackett and Riley Schmitz shooting in the low 80s to upper 70s at times this season, the Wildcats are expected to make sectionals if the scores hold. However, if they do not make it as a team, all five golfers have a shot to make sectionals individually, especially Reinecke and Baltes. Baltes won the Morgan Stanley Shoot out with a 70 and a 74, to edge Memorials Peter Webb (74-71). Reinecke was third with a 76 and a 71.

Spartan Invitational

The Wildcats visited Blackhawk Country Club Monday to play in the Spartan Invitational and finished second to Madison Memorial (303) with a 315. Baltes led Verona with a 72 and finished second behind Webb after a playoff. Reinecke (73), Feller (80) and Schmitz (90) finished the scoring. Beloit Memorial (330) and Middleton (337) finished third and fourth, respectively.

Council: Awkward voting

Continued from page 1 as a political bloc of votes the four new alders, who had managed an unprecedented election sweep. That meant any successful candidate now had to earn all but one vote. On Monday, council president Ald. Mac McGilvray (Dist. 1) offered what he considered to be a compromise, by nominating one of the four new alders, Heather Reekie (Dist. 4), rather than Yurs, because she is a member of only one of the four standing committees. Itd be nice for you to do it, because its a workload, that everybody has to pick up the pieces, McGilvray said. But after Ald. Scott Manley (Dist. 2) the only remaining alder with experience on the commission reported that he had spoken with Yurs and was comfortable supporting him, Reekie nominated Yurs to compete with her, then voted for Yurs over herself. After an awkward 5-2 vote (with Dist. 3 Ald. Luke Diaz voting for Reekie and McGilvray chuckling as he supported his nomination of Reekie, knowing it would force a draw), McGilvray quickly nominated Yurs, ending a monthlong stalemate over a single commission appointment. Each of the four new alders had asked

Refinancing will save $600K or more

individually to be nominated to the Plan Commission, and none voted in any of the six votes for Charles or Manley. Some of the four returning alders had complained the new four got assistance from area lobbying groups and the county Democratic Party and were representing county or Madison interests, rather than those of the city. So when the high-profile Plan Commission seat went up for a vote, the incumbents showed strong reservations, particularly since two of the incumbents had served on the commission before. But after the April 22 meeting got testy with Charles pounding his fist and Yurs barking a complaint about respect Charles decided to quit, stating the belief that the four new alders would vote as one and disrupt the citys progress. On Monday, there was no evidence of a lingering effect of that tiff unless it was a touch of extra politeness to make up for it.

The city will save at least $600,000 by refinancing some long-term debt it took out between three and six years ago. Mike Harrigan of Ehlers Inc., the citys financial adviser, told the Common Council on Monday that because there will be competitive bids, the number could be even higher but that in the worst-case

scenario, a set of 20-year bonds from 2010 will save $230,000 or $190,000 in todays dollars and a set of bonds from 2007 will save $384,000, or $309,000 in todays dollars, all after factoring out the costs of refinancing. The savings will be spread out over multiple years, and some of it wont begin until 2016. Harrigan said a municipality should consider a refinance when the savings

equals 2 percent of the principal and that one bond will be the equivalent of 8 percent and the other will be 10 percent. The bond sale, along with a separate issuance of almost $2.5 million, will be later this month after the city goes through the Moodys rating process, and the city likely will vote on accepting the bids in June, as usual. The city voted Monday to authorize the bond sales.

The new bonds will pay for a variety of projects, all part of the 2013 budget. Among them are more than $800,000 in road maintenance, about $600,000 to replace fire engine No. 2, about $500,000 for planning and design of the new fire/EMS station and more than $400,000 for new radio and communication equipment and infrastructure related to the DaneCom system.

Epic: Action clears way for new road, garage, new zoning
Continued from page 1 Mondays votes did not clear the way fully for Campus 4 and Campus 5. Epic will still need to go through a court process to get Northern Lights Road moved, and in fact, the company has to come back with building plans for each campus, as well as plans for a fourth garage, all of which will require public hearings. But with months of excavation work ahead before it can lay a single brick and at least 1,000 more employees than it can fit in Verona, the company wanted to get in the ground as soon as possible, and Mondays approvals were by far the most important in the process. Most of the others are formalities or related to architectural standards that Epic almost always exceeds. Now, the city and company can turn their attention to preparations for supporting the new campuses, in terms of energy and traffic and making sure that the endless construction does not become a nuisance to residents when it moves to the east. Already, construction plans are being put together for a second lane onto the bypass and Well No. 5 is a few months from establishing a new water source on the west side of the city. And Monday, the city also annexed 40 acres for Epic to build a substation to connect to its wind farm and bore fields for its geothermal heating and cooling system. Mondays major votes for Epics new campus which Alds. Luke Diaz and Dale Yurs had been previously recommended to abstain from because of conflicts of interest essentially accomplished three things: Allowed a new set of buildings to be built Consolidated and subdivided the land to suit the new plan and established zoning Asked the circuit court to clear the right-of-way for the current Northern Lights Road require some trading of land and the waiving of setback requirements in order to fit into an odd-shaped site that has a large hill and will be surrounded by three separate roads and a stormwater pond.

Alders also gave favorable reviews to another complicated set of plans, for a 91-unit Fairfield Inn and Suites hotel that would be located one block from and owned by the same local developer as the Holiday Inn Express on West Verona Avenue. The topic was a discussion only, as a concept plan for a planned unit development, and no action could be taken. The council was asked to give feedback to help guide developers. The councils comments were similar to those of the Plan Commission a week earlier, minor questions about parking, delivery of vehicles and building materials. In general, alders supported the idea, which will

The council took a second step toward establishing the leadership of the new city fire department by authorizing the Police and Fire Commission to spend at least $75,000 on a salary for its fire chief. The PFC has yet to decide how to choose a fire chief for the new department, which begins Jan. 1 with the dissolution of the Verona Fire District. It could begin a new search or hire the existing departments chief, Joe Giver. Mondays vote allowed the PFC to work at minimum within the framework of the current Verona Fire District budget. Alders, however, had some misgivings about authorizing the amount without seeing figures for salaries at comparable departments, despite a salary survey being completed two years ago when Giver was hired. The eventual motion clarified that the commission could return for a higher amount if needed after it examines comparables.

Road upgrades begin

The citys annual set of road replacements began Monday with Mark Drive. Contractors will replace the gutters and driveways, which will be closed for about a week at a time, and will tear up streets one side at a time so on-street parking will still be available. The tentative schedule for this years replacement, which will be adjusted based on weather, is:

Sugar Creek takes 7th in national vocabulary contest

A team representing Sugar Creek Elementary School recently won highest honors in the WordMasters Challenge a national vocabulary competition involving nearly 150,000 students annually, which consists of three separate meets held at intervals throughout the school year. Competing in the very difficult Gold Division of the WordMasters Challenge, the schools third grade team tied for seventh place in the nation in this years second meet, among 127 teams participating in their division. The students were coached by Jeanette Feifarek and Amy Buss. Fifth-graders Colleen Quinn, Hannah Amell and Mia Hoeve each earned a perfect score of 20 in the February meet. Nationally, only 27 third graders and 21 fifth graders achieved a perfect score. Other students from Sugar Creek Street Elementary School who achieved outstanding results in the meet include third graders Aidan Rindfleisch, Katie Linder, Joe Kyle and Cleo Becker, and fourth grader George Robards. The WordMasters Challeng is an exercise in critical thinking that first encourages students to become familiar with a set of interesting new words (considerably harder than grade level), and then challenges them to use those words to complete analogies expressing various

15

kinds of logical relationships. Working to solve the analogies helps students learn to think both analytically and metaphorically. Although most vocabulary enrichment and analogy-solving programs are designed for use by high school students, WordMasters Challeng materials have been specifically created for younger students in grades 3 through 8.

Honors jazz
Two Verona Area High School musicians performed last Thursday at the University of WisconsinMadison as part of an honors jazz band program for roughly 15 high school students from Madison, Middleton, Waunakee and Verona. Senior Sami Burse, left, and junior saxophonist Sam Douglass, right, successfully auditioned to join the group after they were nominated to join by VAHS jazz director Paul Heinecke. They were led by UW professor Johannes Wallman, center, during a performance that preceded a concert by the UW jazz orchestra.

Death: Woman didnt have wander bracelet

Continued from page 1 behaviors. At least two times before her death, Biederman had said she wanted to go home, according to the report, including once in October. The more recent event, on March 5, was not documented by staff but discovered through DHS interviews. The state report noted that despite these behaviors, the woman was not wearing a wanderguard bracelet that would have activated door alarms. Howard said Biederman had worn the bracelet for the first year she was at the facility until we got to know her. She said Biederman, who had been there three years and had family in Verona, was known to her staff for sitting by the front door for long periods of time. That was who Edna was, she said. It wasnt uncommon. As a result, she said, Biederman was not assessed as a risk to wander away. But on the morning of March 8, the womans body was found outside the facility by a staff member in 13-degree weather. Though visual bed checks every two

I have to trust the staff that we hire are competent.

Lynn Howard Four Winds administrator

hours are part of the facilitys protocol, the resident assistant on duty that night admitted to police that she hadnt seen Biederman after 1 a.m. Moreover, the woman, whom the report said was described as shuffling when she walked and needed more than 10 minutes to go from her room to the dining hall, would have had to travel more than half a football fields length to get from her room to the exit, one of two in the facility that were not normally locked from the inside overnight. Howard had no answer for the missing bedchecks but said it was entirely plausible that the assistant could have been busy helping another resident for enough time for Biederman to make her way to the door, an emergency-only exit that locks to the outside

upon closing. I have to trust the staff that we hire are competent, Howard said. I had no previous indication that she wasnt doing her job. The facilitys response included installing door alarms that will deliver a loud, piercing sound if any resident exits, as well as pendants all residents will wear that act as nurse call buttons, pagers for all staff that will indicate any breach and video cameras at the outdoor entrances. Howard said the facility had already been contemplating the mobile nurse call buttons, but having to take the other precautions works against the feel of the facility she prefers to have. This is their home, she said. I dont have alarms in my home. In addition, staff procedures have been updated, Howard said, including a written notation in assistants job description that routine bed checks must include a visual contact with each resident. That had been understood, she said, but apparently not followed. This could have happened to any facility, she said.
