Site proposed for new ambulance (EMS) center

for the construction. Right now the newest ambulance vehicles coming on the market are almost too large to fit in the current garaging site out at the Eldora Medical Center building (the old city hospital complex.) One of the vehicles doesn’t fit at all and is parked off site. Since word came out that the city was eyeing the project, the council has received at least one suggestion from a private citizen, calling for remolding and enlargement of the existing service site out at the hospital. Now comes the third possible alternative involving an existing building on the south side of town. With the new issue before the council, member’s went ahead with the initial work on a loan application to the USDA – which would fund any of the alternatives eventually chosen. The request was for $1.75 million. The project is not obligated simply by the filing Monday night, and the expectation is there will be considerable more discussion before any option is chosen, but USDA officials encouraged the city council to apply now because it is generally anticipated that borrowing costs will be going up soon. Some questions were raised about the efficacy of the south side proposal, some about the large unused space it would entail, and also came concerns about whether the site’s one time use as a vehicle maintenance center might have left some residual site chemical contamination. But it was generally agreed the idea deserved study, and the council gave

the OK to its consulting engineer to tour the center and report back by months end. Meanwhile the city administration reported back with a needs and resources assessment addressing the city ambulance service. The ambulance service has been conspicuous in recent years in that, though it bears the city’s name, it is actually a self-supporting public project, depending on its own revenues and income stream to fund the crews and the operations. Within the assessment was a suggestion that the city someday consider the possibility of lending taxpayer support to the enterprise for the first time in years. The suggestion came in the contest of what the city might do to cushion the financial draw on the service (in the event it does actually go ahead and borrow the money to complete one of the alternative projects.)

One suggestion had been than the city take over the costs of standard fringe benefits, maybe to include insurance, social security and the like. The town’s financial consultant at Monday nights meeting said that the practice is actually common, and that Eldora history of having the service completely self-supporting, though not unheard of, is unusual among Iowa municipalities. The mere possibility of taxpayer support for the service did prompt several questions during Monday nights meeting. Although the city’s consultant said the Eldora service’s financial condition ranks quite high among other communities, city council members Melody Hoy and Robert John had misgivings about asking taxpayers to pitch in on the service. Hoy wondered that, though the service has been growing significantly, there was no guarantee

its costs to operate wouldn’t some day grow faster. Meanwhile, city EMS head Corey Larson told the council the south side proposal was new enough he couldn’t make an assessment, but he said he was not necessarily against it at the same time. Larson had, on the other hand, been cool to that earlier second alternative which would have had a new ambulance garage constructed out at the old hospital site, and more remolding done within the old mothballed hospital to accommodate the service. In general council members Jack Brekke, Dave Mitchell and Cindy Johns were most sanguine about moving ahead with the project. Members John and Hoy raised the most concerns that the city not obligate itself to a long term project without first ensuring that the future income of the ambulance service

would be able to cover all the bond redemption costs. One curiosity that did come up during the meeting was the fact that, though the service is rolling along quite well financially; it could be even more flush if users of the service would simply pay their bills.

Larson noted that the service only receives payment for about half what it bills for its service. It is in the nature of emergency services, he said.

Their teacher, Amanda Lee, said the students are busy preparing for their December 5 concert, and they will be sharing some of the Christmas Carols that they will perform at that concert. Notice the regular meeting time and date have been changed. The meetings in December, January, and March have been changed from the usual second Monday evenings to the Saturday afternoon before starting at 2 p.m. This time change is hoped to accommodate those coming from a distance in the cold weather. Come and enjoy reminiscing about Christmas traditions of our Ostfriesen ancestors, and a little Platt Duetsch speaking. Bring Christmas goodies to share over a cup of Ostfriesen Tea.

I’m Poppin Fresh the Pillsbury Doughboy was his famous introduction along with “Nothing says loving like baking from the oven.” He was used in 600 commercials for 50 products. His chubby, white, smiling face has also been used for other brands such as Geico, Sprint and Got Milk. He has performed as a dancer, singer, artist and has other talents such as playing the harmonica, accordion, bugle and violin. In 1972 a 7” vinyl doll was created that became a fast selling toy. Other family members were created along with a playhouse. In 2009 the Pillsbury doughboy became a Macy’s Thanksgiving Day balloon. He has been a mascot for many cooking contests and has been a helper and friend to cooks everywhere.Respectfully submitted,Lora KramerSecretary

called Weather Warehouse, which furnishes information to government and business. And you can go as far back as 1957 for comprehensive data.

Records include everything from the lowest twenty-four hour temperature in Eldora (during a December), to the daily high for any December, to the warmest minimum temperature, the coldest maximum temperature, and average minimum throughout the all the Decembers.

Check the records and there it is – December of 1983 – over and over and over, the coldest of all Eldora’s many Decembers.

The lowest recorded temperature during December 1983 was a minus 23, and that is the lowest Eldora December temperature going clear back into the Fifties.

The high for the whole month was 34 during December 1983 – again the lowest high of any December since the 50s.

Meanwhile, the warmest low temperature for any December on record here was 26, once more the coldest reading of its kind in all the Decembers dating back to the 50s. The worst day had to have been one in December of 1983 when the high for the day was just a minus 15.

If you averaged all the highs in December 1983 you would come up with a still bone chilling cold 15.7 degrees. And if you averaged the lows from 1983 in December they wouldn’t get beyond a minus 2.3.

As for the Christmas Eve blizzard, then newspaper editor Virginia Stiles wrote that there weren’t any dramatic rescues to report around the county, precisely because everyone was smart enough to stay home.

Water pipes caught cold around Eldora, leaving a lot of patrons without service until after the blizzard, church services for Christmas Eve were cancelled or postponed about everywhere. Churches that tried to tough it out found pews all but empty.

Weather forecasters had given everyone plenty of warning. Roads across the whole state were impassable but also empty.

Three young women from Zearing had to be plucked from the blizzard, but people in Eldora pretty much hunkered down.

On Christmas Day, volunteers – out afoot – showed up at Dorothy’s Senior Center to serve a holiday meal to almost 70.

If you are looking at the long term 2015 December forecast between now and the New Year, consider this as a possibility – the run of temperatures from the paper of December 30, 1983:

Stiles rounded out the weather for December:

“Since Thursday, December 22, the highs ranged from a minus seven on Thursday to a minus 15 on Friday, a minus 11 on Saturday, five degrees on Sunday, 18 on Monday and Tuesday and nine on Wednesday. Remember, that was the highs. The lows were minus 20, minus 23 on Friday, minus 20 on Saturday, minus 10 on Sunday, and 3 on Monday and Tuesday and 8 on Wednesday. Then on December 29 the low plummeted to minus 7.”

Date of Publication: December 2, 2016City of Union

308 Center Street - PO Box 342Union IA 50258

These notices shall satisfy separate but re-lated procedural requirements for activities to be undertaken by the City of Union.

ReQUeST FOR ReLeaSe OF FUNDS On or after December 20, 2016the City of Unionwill submit a request to the State of Iowa, Iowa economic Development authority for the release of Community Development Block grant funds under TITLe 1 of the HOUSINg aND COMMUNITY DeVeLOPMeNT aCT OF 1974, as amended (P.L. 97-35) to undertake the following project: Project Title: CDBg Sanitary Sewer Im-provements Project Purpose: The proposed project involves im-provements to the City’s sanitary sewer system. Improvements include the lining of various parts of the collection system, and lift station and la-goon improvements. Location: The proposed project activities will take place in various locations in the collec-tion system and at the City’s lift station in Union, Hardin County, Iowa. estimated Cost: CDBg Funding = $300,000.00 Total Project Cost = $828,020.00.

FINDINg OF NO SIgNIFICaNT IMPaCT The City of Unionhas determined that the project will have no significant impact on the human environment. Therefore, an environ-mental Impact Statement under the National environmental Policy act of 1969 (NePa) is not required. additional project information is contained in the environmental Review Record (eRR) on file at the City of Union, 308 Center

Street, and may be examined or copied Tues-days from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 P.M.

PUBLIC COMMeNTS any individual, group, or agency may sub-mit written comments on the eRR to the City of Union, City Clerk. all comments received by December 19, 2016 will be considered by the City of Union prior to authorizing submission of a request for release of funds. Comments should specify which Notice they are address-ing.

ReLeaSe OF FUNDS The City of Unioncertifies to Iowa econom-ic Development authority that Thomas Pieper, in hiscapacity as Mayor,consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. Iowa economic Development authority’s approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities un-der NePa and related laws and authorities and allows the City of Union to use HUD program funds.

OBJeCTIONS TO ReLeaSe OF FUNDS The Iowa economic Development authority will accept objections to its release of funds and the City of Union’s certification for a period of fifteen days following the anticipated submis-sion date or its actual receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if they are on one of the following basis: (a) the certification was not executed by the Certifying Officer of the City of Union; (b) the City of Union has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR part 58; (c) the grant recipient or other participants in the de-velopment process have committed funds, incurred costs or undertaken activities not au-thorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before approval of a release of funds by the Iowa economic Development authority; or (d) another Federal agency acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submitted a written finding that the project

Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFR Part 58, Sec. 58.76) and shall be addressed to Iowa economic Develop-ment authority at 200 east grand avenue, Des Moines, Ia 50309. Potential objectors should contact the Iowa economic Development au-thority to verify the actual last day of the objec-tion period.FINaL NOTICe aND PUBLIC eXPLaNaTION

OF a PROPOSeD aCTIVITY IN a FLOOD-PLaIN OR WeTLaND

This is to give notice that the City of Union has conducted an evaluation as required by executive Order 11988 and/or 11990, in accor-dance with HUD regulations at 24 CFR 55.20 Subpart C Procedures for Making Determina-tions on Floodplain Management, to determine the potential affect that its activity in the flood-plain and wetland will have on the human envi-ronment for a CDBg Sanitary Sewer Improve-ments Project (#16-WS-019). The proposed project is located in various locations in the collection system and at the City’s lagoon and lift station in Union, Hardin County, Iowa. The proposed project involves improvements to the City’s sanitary sewer sys-tem. Improvements include the lining of sewer collection lines, and lagoon and lift station im-provements. Portions of the proposed project are located within a 100-year floodplain. The need for the proposed project was identified by the DNR who noted in an inspec-tion report that I/I is a significant problem in the sanitary sewer collection system. The City of Union has considered alterna-tives and mitigation measures to be taken to minimize adverse impacts and to restore and preserve natural and beneficial values. There are no practicable alternatives to locating the project in a floodplain. The targeted project involves modifications to an existing sanitary sewer system that serves a developed commu-nity of 397 people. a portion of the collection

system, lagoon and lift station are located in the floodplain so the location cannot be avoided. all required flood plain permits will be secured prior to the start of construction.

The City of Union has reevaluated alterna-tives to the project and has determined that it has no practicable alternative. environmen-tal files that document compliance with steps 3 through 6 of executive Order 11988 and/or 11990, are available for public inspection, re-view and copying upon request at the times and location delineated in the last paragraph of this notice for receipt of comments. This activity will have no significant impact on the environment because the project involves the rehabilitation of existing sewer system components.

There are three primary purposes for this notice. First, people who may be affected by ac-tivities in floodplains or wetlands and those who have an interest in the protection of the natural environment should be given an opportunity to express their concerns and provide information about these areas. Second, an adequate public notice program can be an important public edu-cational tool. The dissemination of information about floodplains and wetlands can facilitate and enhance Federal efforts to reduce the risks associated with the occupancy and modifica-tion of these special areas. Third, as a matter of fairness, when the Federal government deter-mines it will participate in actions taking place in floodplains or wetlands, it must inform those who may be put at greater or continued risk.

Written comments must be received by the City of Union at the following address on or before December 19, 2016: City of Union, 308 Center Street, and 641-486-2302, atten-tion: Kristi Schiebel, City Clerk. Comments may also be submitted or further information can be requested via email at [email protected]. a full description of the project may also be reviewed at City Hall (address above) on Tues-days from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 P.M.Thomas Pieper, Mayor – City of Union

ACKLEY- Season opening wins were earned by the AGWSR girls’ and boys’ basketball teams, sweep-ing northern neighbor Hampton-Du-mont here Tuesday. The 10th-ranked in Class 1A AG-WSR girls were a 56-35 winner and the Cougars turned back the Bull-dogs, 51-39.13 TREYS FOR AGWSR GIRLS The AGWSR girls had the touch from three-point territory and buried 13 of the long balls in the 21-point victory. The 13 threes were made in just 19 attempts. Mandy Willems led the Cougars bombing with five three-point goals followed by three each for Maddie Brandt and Aubrie Fisher, and two for Alana Groninga. Brandt and H-D’s Carrie Miller shared game-high scoring honors at 16 points as Miller made three of the visitor’s five triples. Willems was one back at 15 points and Fisher had 13. The Bulldogs owned the lead after one quarter at 10-7 when the Cou-gars uncorked a 21-point second and led 28-24 at the break. AGWSR then outscored the visitors 28-11 in the second half. “We had too many turnovers and our free throw percentage were two areas that we will continue to work

PARKERSBURG- The BCLUW cagers tumbled twice to Aplington-Parkersburg here Tuesday. The BCLUW girls’ basketball team finished on the short end, 43-33 and the Comets by a 64-48 count.BCLUW GIRLS FALL BY 10 Scoring was a struggle for the BCLUW girls, managing just 33 points in the 32-minute contest. The Comets were checked to single dig-its in three quarters with seven in the first and fourth, and six in the sec-ond. A 15-point second period pro-pelled the host Falcons to a 24-13 halftime cushion. Kaylee Goecke tallied a team-high 12 points for BCLUW (1-1), hitting four of the team’s five three-point goals. Samantha Ubben added eight points and had five steals. Leah Yan-tis and Lauren Anderson were cred-ited with nine rebounds each. Game-high scoring honors went to Dani Johnson at 15 points with nine for Kaitlyn Mohwinkle to go with 11 rebounds. The Comets were 0-of-9 on free throws and A-P made 6-of-20. Scoring by Quarters:BCLUW 7 6 13 7 -33Aplington-Parkersburg 9 15 11 8 -43 BCLUW scoring – Kaylee goecke 12, Samantha Ubben 8, Skylar Veld-house 5, Leah Yantis 4, Lauren an-derson 2, Madison Ubben 2. Three-point goals: goecke 4, Veldhouse 1.COMETS DROP OPENER Opening night jitters dug a deep hole and the BCLUW boys never recovered in the season-opening loss to Aplington-Parkersburg. The Falcons soared to a 22-9 advantage after one quarter and maintained a double-digit cushion throughout. The Comets held their own over the final 24-minutes, win-ning the three quarters, 42-39. “We had a rough first quarter, but we came back and played a good three quarters after that. We had some kids playing with little to no experience at this level,” said BCLUW coach Luke Higgins. “By the end of the game I can say I am looking forward to the season,” added Higgins. Troy Dolphin led a five-cager at-tack for BCLUW at 14 points. Blake Mann scored 10 points, Clay Silver nine, Jack Garber eight with two three-pointers, and Logan Mann seven. A game-high 23 points by Cade Alberts led the Falcons as he sank 5-of-8 three-point goals. Carter Cuvelier chipped in 11 points. The BCLUW teams meet South Hardin in Eldora tonight (Friday), the girls play Sumner-Fredericks-burg Saturday at Wartburg College in Waverly at 1 p.m. and Tuesday both teams are back in Conrad to battle AGWSR. Scoring by Quarters:BCLUW 22 10 13 19 -64Aplington-Parkersburg 9 10 14 15 -48 BCLUW scoring – Troy Dolphin 14, Blake Mann 10, Clay Silver 9, Jack garber 8, Logan Mann 7.

on improving. Hampton was very quick and scrappy, and forced us into mistakes,” said AGWSR coach Laurie Gann. “However, we battled through it and was able to get our offense go-ing and knock down shots. It was a quality win against a quality 3A pro-gram,” Gann added. Groninga added eight assists to her six points and Rachel Sicard led the board work with seven rebounds. Brandt booked six rebounds, four assists and three steals, and Willems had six steals, five rebounds and four assists.

Three-point goals: Willems 5, Brandt 3, Fisher 3, groninga 2.COUGARS WIN OPENER A strong start sparked the AGWSR boys against Hampton-Dumont in the nightcap. The Cougars had the visitors doubled after one period, 16-8 and were up by double-digits at halftime, 29-16. “It was the first game and it was ragged. We just had no offensive flow. We had good looks and just didn’t make them. Offensively, we

left a lot of points out there,” said AGWSR coach Russ Banzhaf. Alex Hames led a balanced Cou-gars’ scoring column at 12 points with 11 for Mason Eilderts, eight each for Jay Janssen and Caleb Bar-tling, and seven or Aaron Roelfs. The final five were by Ethan Ubben. Hames and Janssen had two three-balls with a dozen rebounds for Jans-sen. “On the positive side our free throw shooting was good and the de-fense was solid,” noted Banzhaf. The Cougars limited H-D to eight points each in the first three quarters. The Bulldogs’ Logan Gooder tallied a game-high 16 points with nine for Justin Kent on three triples. AGWSR owned a 16-point ad-vantage at the charity stripe, hitting 19-of-25 free throws to the visitor’s 3-of-10. The AGWSR cagers open NICL West play tonight (Friday) against rival Grundy Center in Ackley. The Cougars then travel to Conrad Tues-day to play BCLUW.

DES MOINES- The first of Io-wa’s popular shotgun deer seasons is December 3-7 when an expected 75,000 orange clad hunters head to the timber.

That group will be followed by 50,000 hunters who prefer the De-cember 10-18 second gun season.

Each contingent will also pack along thousands of antlerless tags, to extend their time in the field.

Fans of cold weather purchase about 40,000 tags for the Decem-ber 19-January 10 late muzzleloader season.

Iowa’s shotgun seasons allow for group drives; drivers pushing deer towards blockers. Anyone in the group may tag a downed deer – with their own tag. That stands in contrast to other states – and even Iowa’s more solitary muzzleloader and bow seasons. However, it has proven to be an efficient method for taking deer, since modern deer hunting was introduced here in the early 1950s. Whatever the season, any deer must be tagged before it is moved or with-in 15 minutes – whichever comes first.

It also holds the potential for dan-ger, as drivers move closer to, or across, their friends on the drive.

That’s why wearing solid blaze orange is mandatory. The minimum amount covers a hunter’s torso. But more is better.

For several years now, deer hunt-ers have noticed fewer whitetails than in the early 2000s. That is by design. A decade ago, state lawmak-ers instructed the DNR to reduce the deer population, after steady growth through the previous few decades.

With addition of county and sea-son specific antlerless tags, generous quotas and a couple extra seasons, near Thanksgiving and during Janu-ary, hunters responded. Adaptive regulation changes have lowered the deer herd to mid-1990s target levels, in all but a handful of counties.

Hunters in 27 north central and

northwest counties have no county antlerless tags and may take only antlered deer during the first shotgun season.

Iowa’s overall deer harvest across all seasons last year was 105,401, down 30 percent from the 2006 peak and the 2016 harvest should be simi-lar. The 2014 harvest was estimated at 101,595.

“Now is a good time for the DNR to work with hunters and landowners to help develop a better understand-ing of proper deer management; including the benefits of harvest-ing does and keeping deer numbers at ecologically acceptable levels,” stresses Andrew Norton, state deer biologist for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. “Hunters work-ing with landowners at the local lev-el are the best and most efficient way to keep deer numbers acceptable and provide a high quality deer herd.”

DES MOINES- Your deer is down, tagged and on its way to the truck. Your harvest is not complete, through, until you register it; online, over the phone or at a license vender. For hunters who have registered deer for years, there is no change. Online, it takes a couple minutes. Go to www.iowadnr.gov and click on the ‘Hunting’ tab, then on ‘Re-porting Your Harvest’ and follow instructions. Be ready to enter your tag’s nine-digit harvest report num-ber. By phone? Call 800-771-4692. The deer should be reported by the hunter whose name is on the tag…and it must come before midnight, the day after the deer is tagged. The harvest reporting system provides information much faster, and with more detail, than the previous, cum-bersome postcard survey. This leads to more responsive management of deer populations; such as adjusting county by count tags or special zone hunt allotments.

ELDORA- A parade of six mat-men posted 3-0 records and pro-pelled the South Hardin-BCLUW wrestling team to an impressive start to the season here Tuesday. The Storm captured the Quadran-gular title, going 3-0 with wins over Turkey Valley, 72-9; Clarksville, 57-18, and North Butler, 46-36. Unbeatens for SH-BCLUW were Ian Showers at 113-pounds, Coby Willett at 126, Josiah Dorow at 132, Owen Fuller at 182, Dylan Wenke at 195 and heavyweight Ryne Fuller. The Storm earned a dozen pins led by O. Fuller with three, including two in the first-period. Big brother R. Fuller and Willett collected two opening minute falls with one forfeit each, Dorow had a pin, win and for-feit and Showers and Wenke one fall and two forfeits apiece. Teammates with 2-1 showings were Taylor Kolthoff at 106-pounds, Hunter Allen at 120, Logan Gunder-son at 152 and Ryland Duchane at 170. “For the first meet of the season it was a great showing for the Storm,” stated SH-BCLUW co-coach Stacy Simpson. “The kids went out on the mat and were aggressive. They were looking to score points. One thing we need to work on is conditioning; that has to get better,” he added. South Hardin-BCLUW fielded a full lineup of 14 matmen and were awarded 16 forfeits in the three duals with 10 coming in the opener against Turkey Valley. Along with the 60 points in for-feits against the Trojans, the Storm scored pins by Michael Fuller at 160-pounds in 1:10 and O. Fuller in 56-seconds. Three of TV’s nine points were scored by Cale Reicks with a 6-4 upset win over state-ranked Duchane. SH-BCLUW also made quick

ELDORA- Visiting Jesup took two from the South Hardin girls’ and boys’ basketball teams here Monday during North Iowa Cedar League Conference cross-over contests here Monday. The South Hardin girls lost, 56-45 while in the nightcap, the Tigers tumbled 61-48 to the J-Hawks dur-ing the two team’s season opener.SOUTH HARDIN GIRLS 0-2 The South Hardin girls slipped to 0-2 with the 11-point setback in the first game. Subpar shooting was costly as the Tigers connected on 31 percent from the field – going 17-of-55 and just 8-of-21 on free throws. “We are struggling on making shots. We have opportunities and are not finishing. We have the looks we want and are penetrating well,” said South Hardin coach Matt Thomp-son. “A lot of it is confidence right now for this team,” he added.

The Tigers scored the game’s first two baskets and never led again as Jesup closed the first quarter on a 12-2 run and owned a 22-15 halftime lead. The J-Hawks stretched the lead to 11 and then 12, 30-18 at the mid-way mark of the third quarter on a bucket by Emily Treptow. South Hardin answered with a 5-0 run and were within six, 34-28 on Danae Nelson’s three-point goal. Still down six after three periods, 38-32, Miquela Teske opened the fourth with a basket and the Tigers trailed by four. Jesup scored nine of the next 11 points and led 47-36 on a Payton Joblinske triple. Nina Priske’s 11 points led the South Hardin attack with nine for Paige Harrell and six each for Teske, Emma Gourley and Kiera Ander-son. Teske collected six rebounds and five steals with seven boards for Hannah Tripp and five picks for Nel-son. Scoring leaders for the J-Hawks were Jaima Tonne 15 points, Trep-

tow 13 and Annika Wall 12.

Wyant was a one-man show for the visitors in the opening 16 min-utes, pouring in 25 points and help-ing the J-Hawks open a 36-29 lead. Aiding in the visitor’s scoring in the second half were nine points for Drew Schmit and eight for Tyler Lienau. The two teams combined for 16 three-point goals with nine for Je-sup.
