Budget outlook
better than in
recent past
New construction provides extra
$90k for levy
BILL LIVICK
Unified Newspaper Group
A preliminary look at the villages 2015

budget projections paints a picture less dire
than what was typically seen in the past few
years, and especially during the Great Recession.
But with other costs going up on the heels of
years of tighter budgets, the villages Finance
committee will still have to be thrifty as it
begins producing the budget next month.
State law limits the villages ability to
raise new revenue for operations, tying it to a
growth figure called net new construction.
With $19 million in net new construction,
the village can raise general fund revenue in
next years budget by about $90,000 through
the tax levy, administrator Mike Gracz estimated.
Thats a growth rate of 2.25 percent the

The Oregon School Board approved a preliminary 1.5 percent decrease in the tax levy
for the 2014-15 school year at its annual meeting Monday night.
The 2014-15 budget will depend on the
result of two Nov. 4 referendums - one which
asks voters to approve $54.6 million in building renovations and improvements, and another that asks for authorization for the district to
exceed its state-mandated revenue limits on
a recurring basis by $355,864 to pay for the
operational expenses of those improvements.
According to district officials, approval of
both referendums would mean an extra $55
per $1,000 in assessed property value in taxes
next year for district residents.
If the capital referendum does not pass, business manager Andy Weiland said board members may decide to pay off outstanding bonds
early and keep the levy the same for the next
year. If the capital referendum does not pass

Village of Oregon
Board prepares for rail crossing

First trains expected
to deliver to Lycon
next month
BILL LIVICK
The village has taken steps

in the past two weeks to
allow the first trains to run on
the rail line here since 1997.
The Village Board last
week approved hiring a firm
to provide railroad-engineering services at the Braun
Road entrance to Alpine
Business Park. And on Monday, the board approved a
temporary license agreement
with Wisconsin & Southern
Railroad so that the company
can begin using the rail line
this fall.
The village last week
hired TerraTec Engineering to oversee the installation of gates and automatic
flashing lights at the Braun
Road crossing. The Commissioner of Railroads last year
ordered the village to install

the crossing devices so that
Wisconsin & Southern can
begin using the reactivated
rail line to haul aggregate for
Lycon Inc.s ready mix concrete production plant in the
business park.
The village will pay TerraTec a lump sum of $12,000
for the service, which
includes drawing up bid documents, providing bidding
assistance and overseeing the
construction of the gates and
flashing lights.
The construction is
estimated to cost about
$250,000, which will come
from the villages TIF 2
account. The business park
is in the villages Tax Increment Financing District 2.
Public works director
Mark Below said Tuesday
that the installation of the
gates probably wont happen until July or August of
next year.
The village earlier this year
raised the elevation of Braun
Road at the rail crossing by
one foot to meet the demands

of Wisconsin & Southern,
the company that will operate the rail line.
Wisconsin & Southerns
director of government relations, Ken Lucht, attended
this weeks Village Board
meeting and asked the village to approve a temporary
licensing agreement with the
railroad company so that it
could begin running trains on
the line.
He explained that Wisconsin & Southern has been
working on the tracks this
summer and is far enough
along that trains can begin
running, but the companys
application to use the line
as a common carrier wont
be approved by the Surface
Transportation Board until
November too late to meet
Lycons needs this year.
They need two or three
trains running to give them
enough material to operate for the rest of the year,
Lucht told the board.
He said for the foreseeable
future, trains will run only

from April to October, when
Lycon is producing concrete
in the business park.
Village attorney Matt
Dregne recommended the
board approve the temporary
licensing agreement with
Wisconsin & Southern contingent on proof of insurance
policy limits and confirmation from Wisconsin Department of Transportation and
the Wisconsin Rail River
Transit Commission.
Lucht said those contingencies would be met this
week.
Village officials initially
objected to the railroad commissioners order that the village install gates and flashing lights at the Braun Road
crossing. Village administrator Mike Gracz and Below
had said installing crossbucks and stop signs would
be sufficient, given that
Lycon plans to use only two
or three trains per week for
its production plant.
Also, trains running on the
line will be restricted to traveling at 25 mph, and 20 mph

when nearing Braun Road at
the Alpine Business Park.
In denying the villages
objection, the railroad commissioner noted that the
Braun Road crossing would
have three sets of tracks
because of a spur off the
main line that will extend
into the business park to
Lycons production facility.
The presence of multiple
tracks is one of the key factors warranting the installation of automatic flashing
lights with gates, the commissioners office wrote in a
letter to the village.
The rail line, which had
been inactive since 1997,
has been reactivated between
McCoy Road in Fitchburg
and Butts Corner Road,
about one mile north of
Evansville.
But in response to a question from Trustee Jerry Bollig, Lucht said trains would
run only as far south as Netherwood Road.
Other business
In other business Monday,
the Village Board:
Approved a three-year
lease agreement with the
Oregon Area Chamber of
Commerce. The chamber has
used office space in Village
Hall, rent free, since October
2011.
Renewed a contact with
the Town of Oregon for Village of Oregon police services. Village police officers
work in the township for 20
hours per month. The village
charges the town an annual
fee of $17,740 for the service. The contract approved
Monday is effective Jan. 1,
2015 Dec. 31, 2015.
Approved a proposal to
name the bike trail thats
under construction north
of the village The Oregon
Rotary Bike Trail. The
Rotary Club has pledged to
contribute at least $10,000
toward the construction cost.
Former church technician sentenced after Feb. arrest

State Journal. By court order,

Finch will have an additional
10 years of extended supervision upon his release.
Dane County Circuit Court
Judge Stephen Elke said the
fact that Finch took photos
of the private areas of clothed
children at the church contributed to his sentence, which
was a year longer than the
three years Welch asked for
the states minimum penalty for possession of child
pornography, according to the
Wisconsin State Journal story. Assistant District Attorney
Corey Stephan had recommended a six-year sentence.
According to online court
records, as part of the sentencing, upon his release,
Finch will be prohibited from
possessing or using a camera, computer or other devices that access the Internet or
store data electronically. He
is also prohibited from having any contact direct or
indirect with any children
under the age of 18 without
prior written approval of an
agent of the courts. He is also
not allowed near Peoples
United Methodist Church.
A former audio technician

at Peoples United Methodist Church was sentenced
Friday to four years in prison
for downloading hundreds
of thousands of images of
child pornography and taking suggestive photos of
children during church
events.
Brandon
A. Finch, 23,
of Fitchburg,
was arrested
Feb. 10 and
charged with Finch
four felony
counts of
possession of child pornography following an investigation by the Department
of Homeland Security and
Wisconsin Department of
Justice. He was immediately
fired when church officials
learned of his arrest.
Finch will seek help for

disorder, obsessive behavAccording to the criminal
ior and social maladjustment, said his attorney Adam complaint, a special agent
Welch, according to a story from the Wisconsin Departin Saturdays Wisconsin ment of Justice visited Finch
at his home on the morning of
Feb. 10, where Finch admitted to having downloaded

child pornography onto the
hard drive of his personal
computer. During a search
of that computer, six images
of children who attend the
church were discovered.
Peoples United Methodist
Church pastor Jason Mahnke
told the Observer that Finch
took photographs of six
clothed girls during church
events, using his personal
camera and downloading the
photos to his home computer
without sharing them with
the church.
What he did at the
church was technically not
illegal but was creepy,
Mahnke said. It was
against our sanctuary policy. Hes not ever going to
be allowed back.
Mahnke said Finch passed
a background check and was
hired by the church in January 2010 to run the sound
booth during worship services and photograph church
events for the churchs website. While he was known as
a socially awkward person
who had special needs in
high school, Mahnke said
there was nothing to suggest
anything abnormal.
It came completely out of
nowhere, he said. Brandon
was a part of the church for I
dont know how far back, and
they were trying to find him

ways to grow as a person.
At the behest of Homeland
Security officials, Oregon
School District superintendent Dr. Brian Busler emailed
a letter to district parents on
Feb. 11 to inform them of the

situation, as one of the districts 4K programs Little
Angels Christian Preschool
has been held at the church
for the past four years. Busler
said while Homeland Security
officials told him they didnt

think there was anything to
worry about from a 4K standpoint, they insisted he write
the letter. Nothing else concerning Finch came up as a
result of the letter.

minimum of four square feet per
chicken and 10 square feet per

chicken if they dont have access
to a run. Chickens have an obsessive pecking instinct, and even
free rangers will peck at each
other if penned up. This is very
heartbreaking to watch.
So the bigger the coop, the better.
Some municipalities are good
about ensuring this. In Stoughton,
for example, there are clear rules.
The ordinance limits you to four
hens (no roosters), and the permit
is $15 annually. This is good,
because nobody really needs more
than four good laying hens.
In Oregon, there is not an
ordinance, but chickens must be
caged. You can be ticketed if the
chickens are causing a nuisance.
In unincorporated parts of
Dane County, chickens can roam
anywhere on your property. How
much you let that happen depends
on how much you like your landscaping. Chickens love to see
what is under mulch and enjoy
rifling through it daily, gobbling
up precious new flower buds.
As my chickens fattened themselves up, predators began using
my land as a hunting ground. The
chickens were cooped at night,
loose during the day, which the
coyotes discovered. They would
run right past me in broad daylight, take a chicken and run back
off into the woods.
A small, mangy, unafraid red
fox would occasionally nap leisurely by my back shed trying to
keep one eye open in case a chicken strolled by within pouncing
distance. Hawks circled by day,
and skunks and raccoons trolled
by night.
As fall came, the 25 layers
were 4 months old and started
producing eggs. Chicken owners
love getting fresh eggs, but in my
case, it was about 20 a day or 140
a week, some even with double
yokes. Out of necessity, I put up
a sign that said Free Range Eggs
For Sale.
The good thing was that people
stopped and talked, and I shared
liberally with friends. Whether
you are scrambling, frying, hard
boiling or making baked goods,
home grown eggs just taste better.
Once you start eating this type
of egg, it pains you to go back to
commercial eggs.
But I knew a majority of the

chickens had to go by early winter.
Some were the size of a small
dog and ate like one too, but they
were an unlimited source of entertainment. I found them as interesting as TV. But they also made a
mess everywhere.
The resulting increase in
rodents also made a mess.
An old playhouse became an
underground rat-breeding facility. The rats had an impressive
community brewing there, with a
convenient hole in the wood floor
where they could pop up with
ease for food and water.
I eventually removed the building from my property and had to
start selling the chickens. Fortunately, they sold easily on Craigslist for $10 or $15 each.
Now, I own about 10 chickens, mostly heavy layers but a
few fancy breeds. To save my
landscaping, they free range only
a few hours a week, and I have
installed fencing to keep them out
of my gardens.
Cooping the chickens breaks
my heart, I found I had to do it
more to keep my sanity. Another
common practice is clipping the
wings to keep them from flying,
though its something I never did.
Three chickens will fit easily
into most coops. My layers are 2
years old, still very productive,
but a little slow in the winter. The
fancy breeds lay about 30 eggs a
year, having produced a few more
in their younger days.
If I could do it all over again,
I would only have two to three
good layers. I dont need many
eggs since my small household
is just me, except when my two
daughters are home from college.
But it has been comforting
knowing that my chickens have
been hormone- and antibiotic-free
and eat a natural diet (mostly bugs
and grass). Ive also learned to
plan ahead more. It doesnt hurt
to write things down on paper and
do calculations to predict how
things may shake out in the end.
All in all, chickens have been a
great experience, and finding an
egg every morning never gets old.

Charity Begins at Home

Many of us dream of going to faraway exotic places
and helping the poor and downtrodden there. Perhaps
we have even gone on a mission trip to a foreign country,
or weve gone out into our own communities to help
others, or weve donated money or supplies to help refugees elsewhere. This is all well and good, but if we are
neglecting the people under our own roof we are missing
a crucial point about charity. It is easy to love people at a
distance; it can be difficult to really love and care for the
people we live with. Family members, friends and roommates can grate on us with their annoying habits and just
from sheer familiarity. Isnt the real test of whether you
have Gods love in your heart how you treat the difficult
people you live and work with, the folks under your own
roof who dont always express their appreciation and who
know how to push your buttons, and seem to enjoy doing
so? Charity begins at home. Its easy to be kind to those
halfway around the world. Can we be truly kind to those
we live with?
Christopher Simon via Metro News Service
But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and
especially for members of his household, he has denied
the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

To the music of Shari Sarazin and her Celtic harp, the Oregon Area
Senior Center last week celebrated a grand reopening of Caf
Connect, where seniors can meet for coffee, lunch and activities.
The dining room has been remodeled thanks to a grant from the
Wisconsin Elderly Nutrition Revitalization Project, support of the
villages of Oregon and Brooklyn, the towns of Rutland and Oregon
and the Council on Aging.For more information, call the center at
835-5801.
Budget: Hearing is Nov. 17

fourth highest of all Dane
Countys cities and villages.
Most of that growth is in
single-family homes built on
the villages west side last
year a total of 57 as well
as seven commercial buildings for overall growth of
$24 million (including such
things as personal property
and increased land value).
Thats what is generating
the increase in the value,
Gracz told the Observer.
Its a nice number. Were
never going to get back up
to where were averaging
more than 100 (single-family homes) a year.
So far this year, construction was started on 34 single-family homes and three
commercial properties.
Gracz said the village is
still facing a deficit, in the
department income, of about
$50,000 for next years budget.
He said that number could
change dramatically because
it has some estimates
figured in, including a projected 8 percent increase in

health insurance costs.
Most of the villages fulltime employees, about 65,
are on the health insurance
plan.
Its a big impact on the
villages budget, Gracz
said.
He said the villages ability to generate $90,000 in
new revenue will also have a
strong impact on the deficit.
Well have to decide
are we going to keep all
that new growth in the general fund or put some in
equipment or streets, he
explained. Its divvying up
how much extra revenue.
If we left all that money
in here, and we get a good
number on health insurance,
it would probably eliminate
that deficit.
The Village Board will
hold its first of three scheduled meetings on the budget
at 6 p.m. Oct. 13 in Village
Hall. The public hearing is
scheduled for Nov. 17.
Tommys doctor
prescribed a new
medical treatment:
basketball.
Tommys mom was concerned about his weight. She knew that childhood
obesity could develop into lifelong health problems. Fortunately for Tommy, time
was on his side. And so was his Meriter UnityPoint Health team. His doctor
introduced Tommy and his mom to a dietitian, who taught him about eating
smarter. Then his team worked with a local fitness center to get Tommy moving.
So now Tommy gets more exercise playing hoops with kids from his school.
Thats what coordinated care is all about. Teaching kids how to live a longer,
healthier life. And sometimes, a good jump shot.
The point of everything we do is you.

head coach Bill Scheer said. I
am hoping that we starting to
peak now at the end of our season. The season gets very long,
and I think that in the middle of
our season, the girls were a little

burnt out and a little bit sick of
golf. But I am now seeing a little
bit of resurgence.
There was improvement with
ball striking, Scheer said. And

Oregon High School volleyball head coach Jaime

Vareka said the Panthers
really needed a win at
Stoughton last Thursday to
help bring some momentum to the girls side.
And a 3-1 win (25-20,
21-25, 25-18, 25- 19)
helped the Panthers have
a strong showing in Saturdays Middleton invite.
Oregon finished 2-4 in
the tournament but made
the silver bracket and nearly knocked off host Middleton in pool play.
I couldnt be prouder
of this team, Vareka said.
The girls really worked
hard in and out of practice.
They really needed to beat
Stoughton to raise their
confidence, and it showed
this weekend with the
way they played against
Middleton and some of the
other teams.
Oregon will look to gain
more momentum at 7 p.m.
Thursday in a non-conference match against Sauk
Prairie at home.
Oregon 3, Stoughton 1
With the match tied at a
game apiece, the Panthers
finished strong in the third

freshman Alyssa Milski added 13 kills. Senior

1411 Hwy. 51 North,

Stoughton, WI
From the first goal of the

game, it was evident the
Oregon High School boys
soccer team was going to be
tough to contain.
Senior Colin Hughes
picked up two goals and an
assist, and his second score,
early in the second half on a
header goal, was made possible by a perfect corner by
senior Nick Steidemann to
junior AJ Breitbach. That
opened up a 2-0 lead.
Later Hughes received
a corner pass from Steidemann and found senior
Mitch Morhoff charging into the penalty box.
Morhoff finished the play
with a header past Stoughton sophomore goalie Zeth
Zeichert.
It was very important
to score quick and early so
we could dictate the game
and play our way, Hughes
said.
Hughes scored the first
goal of the game, as well.
Steidemann passed to
Morhoff, who quickly found
Hughes 25 yards out from
the goal. Hughes ripped the
shot past a diving Zeichert
into the right-corner of the
net.
When we come out, we
want to dictate the game and
make sure we maintain that
for 90 minutes, head coach

Kevin May said. I thought
we did a good job of owning
it right from the start.
The Panthers came into
the game with only four
goals allowed, including
zero in conference play, and
they looked to be heading
toward that direction once
again with a 3-0 lead and
under 20 minutes to play.
But a late yellow card on
senior Elliot Moravec in
the 77th minute gave the
Vikings a free kick about 35
yards out from the Oregon
net, and a few seconds later,
junior Ethan Genter found
junior Nathan Varese open
for the goal.
Stoughton went on to
hold possession for most of
the final 15 minutes, including a shot in front of the net
that was saved and two corner kicks. But that was the
end of the offense for the
night.
That didnt satisfy the
defending state champions
coach.
It bothers me a little,
May said. I had the majority of my starting lineup on
my bench, but still, a goal is
unacceptable ... Little mistakes like that is something
we have been trying to clean
up.
Zeichert finished with
five saves for Stough ton, while senior Dan
Dombrowski had two saves

for Oregon.
With the regular season
winding down, May said
Oregon needs to take its
play up another level before
playoffs begins and its
WIAA Division 2 state title
defense begins.
Conference is the No. 1
objective. We want to make
sure we seal up the conference, May said. We also
have Madison Memorial
and McFarland and hope
to use those as an opportunity to push our level up, as
well, and make sure we are
ready come playoff time.
The Panthers conclude the
Badger South Conference
regular season with two
games this week. Oregon
travels to Monroe at 5 p.m.
Thursday at Honey Creek
Park and travels to Fort
Atkinson at 7 p.m. Tuesday,
Sept. 30.
Oregon 2, Arrowhead 0
The Panthers traveled to
Hartland Arrowhead last
Thursday and won 2-0.
Morhoff scored both
goals, including an unassisted one in the 68th minute to
give Oregon some breathing
room.
Senior Chris McGuine
had the assist on Morhoffs
first goal.
Dombrowski finished
with three saves.

Girls cross country
Panthers learning to compete against the best

ANTHONY IOZZO
The 2014 Oregon High

School girls cross country
season reached the halfway
point this past week, and
head coach Dave DeBroux
said the girls have come a
long way since the start of
the season.
Saturdays 17th-place
finish at the 58th annual
Smiley Invitational at the
5K American Legion Golf
Course in Wausau, led by
Emma Hughes who took
60th overall in 16 minutes,
58 seconds, was another
learning experience for the
younger girls on the squad
as well as a gauge for the
veteran runners.
We raced some of our
best competition again with
the intent of learning from
the experience and learning to compete against the
best, DeBroux said. We
got a lot of good things out
of that race, and some of
our younger kids are catching on well and learning to
compete, which is really

exciting.
We are not done yet.
If we are ready to finish
strong, I think these girls
can surprise themselves with
what they can really do.
Maddie LeBrun reached
the finish line as the teams
second runner, placing 82nd
in 17:34, while Madelyn St.
Claire added a 99th-place

finish as the teams third
runner in 17:56.
Connie Hansen (103rd)
and Taylor Schmidt (107th)
finished one second apart
to round out the pack. The
Panthers finished with a
team score of 283 points.
Eagan placed all of its
runners about two minutes
apart and in the 30 to take

top honors with 80 points.
Stevens Point (85) came
away a close second, while
Madison Memorial (112)
finished third.
The Panthers return to
action 9 a.m. Saturday, Sept.
27, at Blackhawk Country
Club in Janesville for the
Midwest invitational.

High School with a 2-1 (25-20, 17-25, 17-15)
win over La Crosse Aquinas and a 2-0 (28-26,
25-18) win over Riverdale.
Then the Panthers came out strong against
the host Cardinals, winning the first set 25-23
before dropping the next two 10-25 and
11-15.
The girls really fought hard and really
wanted it, Vareka said. It was nice to see
them play so aggressively and fighting for
each and every point.
Oregon went on to drop the next two matches to West Allis Hale 2-0 (29-31, 16-25) and
Sauk Prairie 2-0 (13-25, 23-25) to finish pool
play, but the Panthers earned a trip to the silver bracket a top four team in their group.
However, a long delay until their quarterfinal match with Wisconsin Heights led to a
2-1 loss (15-25, 27-25, 9-15).
Despite the finish, Vareka said the invite
will only help the girls down the stretch.
It definitely highlights things we still need
to work on like conditioning and controlling

the ball, Vareka said. These are things to
address in practice, and it really is a great
tournament because of that.
Rosemeyer led in kills in all but one match
Saturday. She finished with 37 overall. She
also had 11 blocks, including four against
Middleton and three against La Crosse.
Doering added seven total aces, including three against La Crosse and two against
Middleton, and Sagen led with 81 assists,
including 17 against La Crosse and 14 against
Middleton.
Lynch led with 28 digs overall, despite Milski leading in three matches. Milski had 10
against La Crosse, six against Riverdale and
three against Sauk Prairie.

The Panthers hosted Mount Horeb Tuesday
and won 3-1 (25-27, 25-17, 25-19, 25-18).

blocks, while Milski had two aces. Sagen collected 18 digs and 35 assists.

our biggest goals to make

Girls swimming
Christofferson shines against McFarland, splashes to two first places

ANTHONY IOZZO
Freshman Carolyn Christofferson

came up big for the Oregon High
School-Belleville girls swim team
Tuesday against McFarland.
Christofferson won two events,
and she also helped two relays take
second places.
Despite the 105-65 loss to the
Spartans, head coach Karissa
Kruszewski said, the Panthers took
big strides from last year, when
Oregon didnt win an event against
McFarland.
Any gains the girls team can
make against a top-tier team like
McFarland is a stride in the right
direction, she wrote in an email.
This week, the girls attitudes were
completely different than last week
against Milton in that they were
going to swim fast with no excuses.
The girls have come a long way
since the beginning of the season,
both physically and mentally. They
are starting to carry themselves and
hold themselves at a higher level, and they need to do that if we
want to compete against teams like

McFarland.
Christofferson took first place in
the 50-meter freestyle in 29.52 second, and she won the 100 backstroke
in 1:13.92.
Senior Abby Schmitt also grabbed
a first place. She won the 100 butterfly in 1:18.05.
Junior Willow Kugel, freshman
Katie Reisdorf, Christofferson and
Schmitt took second in the 200-medley relay in 2:17.76
Junior Hannah Rau, Christofferson, Kugel and Schmitt also
took second in the 200-free relay in

2:05.09.
Kugel added an individual second
place in the 50 free in 30.24, while
Rau was third in the 100 freestyle in
2:28.6.
The 400-free relay team of junior
Amber Cody, sophomore Grace
Przybyl, junior Quincey Newton and
Rau also took third in 4:41.74.
Oregon-Belleville travels to the
Plymouth invite at 9:15 a.m. Saturday, and it travels to Monroe High
School at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 30,
for a dual with Monroe-New Glarus.
Senior Josh Christensen

helped the Oregon boys

Christensen covered the

Course in 17 minutes, 48
seconds, which was good
for 29th place.
Fellow senior Ryan Barry followed in 67th place
with a time of 18:31.
Junior Chris Cutter and
sophomore Morgan Ballesteros finished a fraction of
a second apart in 19:06 to
round out the pack in 93rd
and 94th place, respectively
Ben Janes and Izaac Nelson both competed on varsity, but did not score.
Stevens Point placed all

out the top three schools.

I was pretty happy about
that. So I am just going to

who shot a 95, was also
happy with her play in her
final high school conference meet.
I played a practice round
Saturday, so I knew the
way the course was set up
and what I should hit on
each hole, she said.
Junior Olivia Davis
finished the scoring for
Oregon with a 114.

Madison Edgewood won
the conference with 12 1/2
points. The Crusaders were
5-0 and took first in the
tournament with a 340. Milton (4-1) was second with
a 341, and Stoughton (3-2)
was third with a 363.
The Panthers tied Monona Grove (372) in the tournament, but the Silver

Audience members who

were allowed to vote on
the budget, and there were
no nay votes at the meeting among board members,
a handful of residents and
around a dozen district staff
members in attendance.
The annual meeting,
which is heavy on numbers
and budget details, provides
residents an opportunity
to ask questions and give
opinions on the budget and
other district issues. Several people were concerned
about the board putting off
a potential third referendum
question, until April.
Board members explained
that they did not have enough
information yet for that question, and decided to wait
until April to allow staff and
board members more time to
evaluate and get a better handle on the situation.

Walsten: Stepping down

development and now
it is, Walsten said in a
phone call. Theres still
a whole bunch more that
needs to be done, but Im
really pleased and Id feel
real comfortable having
another person become
village president and pick
up and go do what they
want to do.
She did write in the letter that the village still
faces huge challenges,
including growing its commercial tax base and creating jobs for low-income
residents.
I would hope that whoever becomes the next
village president would
be committed to the
objectives and the strategic plans that have been
made and move forward
with those, she told the
Observer.
Her accomplishments
in her 10 years as village
president included the

creation of the Brooklyn Business Park last
year. Thus far, no businesses have been publicly
announced as tenants for
the park, and Walsten
declined to comment
Monday.
Things are progressing,
thats all I can say, she
said.
Walsten also has had
repeated conflicts with village trustee Sue McCallum this year, continuing a
pattern that began several
years ago. The disagreements have led to contentious village board meetings at times and disputes
over attorneys fees.
With the extra time,
Walsten said she plans to
travel, spend more time
with her family and a
number of things I havent
had a chance to do.
My bucket list has a
lot of dust on it, she said
with a laugh.
