Veterans park: One month to go

Scott De Laruelle
More than 150 years in the making,

the Stoughton Area Veterans Memorial Park is nearing completion as the
Nov. 12 dedication day draws closer.
When finished next month, the
park a joint effort between Stoughton VFW Post 328 and American
Legion Post 59 will list the names
of more than 5,200 Stoughton area
veterans, dating back to the Civil
War. A centerpiece will feature the
names of the 169 area servicemembers who were killed in action.
Park organizers have raised around
$900,000 of the $1 million target for
the park. Bud Erickson of American

Legion Post 59 told the Hub on Tuesday what remains to be built includes
educational pillars, memorial bricks,
benches and a sign to be placed along
County Hwy. B.
So far, the group has raised funds
for 24 benches, 11 flagpoles, 630
memorial bricks, the centerpiece and
most of the landscaping.
Stoughton Garden Center workers were out Tuesday finishing landscaping (other than grass seeding).
Pechmann Memorials installed the
centerpiece Tuesday and will soon
install the 12 educational pillars and
the black granite monument with the
veterans names.
Electricity is expected to be
hooked up later this week, and blacktopping the parking lot is scheduled
for later this month.
Remaining items to be sold

Far from finished at Western Koshkonong

Church celebrates
125 years Sunday
Scott De Laruelle
Det Er Fuldbragt.
The Norwegian inscription It is finished sits
beneath a painting of
Christ at the crucifixion in
the ornate, historic Western Koshkonong Lutheran
Church. And while church
members are pausing Sunday to commemorate 125

years, they hope there will
be plenty more ahead.
According to a church
history compiled through
the years, while the church
was incorporated in 1891,
it really started on July 1,
1860, when the Rev. Jacob
Aal Ottesen was called to
the area, giving his first sermon at a different church
West Koshkonong Church.
After some time, though,
tensions arose around the

country among Lutheran
congregations over doctrinal teachings, prompting a
split within the church.
Ottesen and a group of
followers decided to leave
and form their own church,
and they didnt have far to
move, choosing a spot up
the road on top of a hill. On
Oct. 1, 1891, the Western
Koshkonong congregation

Dane County
Parisi budget touts investment

Proposal addresses
compassionate services,
infrastructure
Focusing on unprecedented investments for the most vulnerable citizens and shoring up critical infrastructure, Dane County Executive Joe
Parisis proposed 2017 budget is now
on the table for county board members to amend.
The budget, issued Sept. 26 and
titled, An Investment for our Future,
totals $585 million: about $500,000
under the state-imposed levy cap.
The county will hold a public hearings Oct. 19 and typically votes on the
budget in November.
In the news release, Parisi focused
on several topics addressed in the proposed budget: mental health, gangs
and gun violence, opiates, homelessness and infrastructure.
My 2017 budget makes unprecedented investments in compassionate services for our most vulnerable,
infrastructure critical to continued
economic vitality and safety, along
with a quality of life that creates an
environment where new families and
businesses flourish, he said. Good
wages, educational achievement,
reducing economic and racial disparities, improved mental health, cleaner
waters and conservation, safer roads
for both cars and bikes, and housing
for those who have fallen on hard
times.
Specific proposals
Parisi is asking to add $153,000 to
partner with more school districts outside of Madison to expand upon the
Dane County Mental Health Crisis
Teams established in 2013. He listed
Verona as one of the school districts
that have benefited from the program
in the past.
To help combat the effects of mental illness, Parisi is proposing adding
$100,000 to the Community Crisis

Response program budget.

The effects of mental illness are far
reaching, affecting classrooms, families, and workplaces, he said. Dane
County is stepping up and increasing
our commitment to get help to those
in need and address mental health
challenges.
Citing increasing incidents of
gun violence, Parisi is proposing an
additional team leader to the countys gang response intervention unit,
so each high school in the Madison
School District has one.
In the past six weeks, Parisi said
there were 60 overdose calls across
Dane County, calling heroin and opiate abuse a public health and public
safety crisis of critical proportion.
His proposed budget would double the District Attorneys Opiates
Deferred Prosecution Program, which
Parisi said would allow the county to
get twice as many people facing opiate-related charges into treatment and
rehabilitation.
Getting people to choose and stay
on that path is the greatest challenge,
he said.
Another $50,000 would go for the
Eviction Prevention Fund, a program he said is on track to help keep
more than 200 families in their home
this year. He is also proposing adding $90,000 in funding to the countys Housing Hotline by adding
two new staff members, and another
$80,000 for two new staff members to
identify housing.
H o m e l e s s n e s s i s a c o m p l ex
Slight tax increase

The budget proposed by Dane
County Executive Joe Parisi would
increase taxes on the average Madison home (valued at $254,593)
by $19.61 or 2.5 percent. County
taxes represent about 15 percent
of a persons total property tax bill.
problem that no one entity can solve
alone, Parisi said.
The proposed budget adds around
25 miles of on-road, newly paved
bike lanes and five new positions in
the highway department. The news
release said Parisi is adding to the
budget this year to expedite road
projects in areas long overdue for
resurfacing and repair, though no
specific projects were listed. These
projects have been engineered to
include paved bike lanes wherever
possible, and Parisi noted the proposed budget includes more than $2
million for three major new off-trail
projects.
This budget is my largest investment yet into reconstructing our aging
county highways and investing in bike
paths, he said. Our bike paths are
a reason people love living in Dane
County and are an important part
of our transportation and recreation
infrastructure. We need to do all we
can to make biking as safe as possible
for bikes and motorists.

Skaalen gets OK for apartments

Bill Livick
The Common Council last week approved a

Skaalen Retirement Services plan to build a 33-unit
residential care apartment complex between
Skaalens existing campus
and Stoughton Hospital.
The council amended
zoning for several properties owned by Skaalen and
also approved a certified
survey map for the project
on 9-1 votes. Dist. 2 Alder
Kathleen Tass Johnson cast
the only vote against both
items.
Johnson didnt return
the Hubs phone call seeking comment prior to the
papers Tuesday production
deadline.
There was virtually no
discussion of the zoning
change or the CSM at the
Sept. 27 council meeting.
The Planning Commission
had unanimously recommended approval of both.
In August, Skaalen president and CEO Kristian
Krentz told the Planning
Commission they plan to
begin building the complex in early November and
open in February 2018.
S k a a l e n s c o n s t r u c tion plan calls for a

38,000-square-foot building with three stories.
Krentz said the new
building would supplement
Skaalens extensive existing senior living facilities
and services.
It promotes aging in
place, which is popular
now, he said. People dont
want to move from level of
care to level of care, from
building to building. This
will give us a lot of flexibility and a chance to care for
them independently as they
age in place or experience
an accident or a decline.
The proposed building will not be attached to
Skaalens main facility, but
will be about 50 feet away
with a walkway between
the two buildings. Krentz
told the Planning Commission residents may be independent or use help from
Skaalen for medication
administration, housekeeping, laundry, meal service
or bathing. He said the new
building would expand for
another 24 units after the
first phase is complete.

Whats next
A public hearing on the proposed
budget will be held at 7p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 19 in room 201 of the City/
County Building. County budget deliberations are scheduled to begin Monday, Nov. 14, with the board meeting
to vote on the budget set for 7p.m.
Thursday, Nov. 17. The board can also
meet on Monday, Nov. 28 if necessary,
to consider possible budget vetoes.

Nosals killer sentenced to life in prison

Shot 24-year-old
Stoughton woman in
Madison in February
according to the criminal

complaint.
Nosal had worked at Metro Market for approximately three years, according to
a statement from Roundys
and Metro Market after the
incident.
According to Channel3000, Nosals parents
and sister spoke at the sentencing about the effect
Nosals death has had on
their lives.
Judge William Hanrahan had harsh words for
OKroley at the sentencing.

Be clear about this,
whatever thrill, whatever
twisted gratification came
with being a stalker, a rapist, a murderer, there is a
cost and it is a big cost,
the judge told OKroley,
according to Channel3000.
OKroleys defense attorney said in court that the
Madison man has done

Healthy eating can

actually save money
eaching nutrition education classes at Stoughton

Hospital bring up many
questions including what to eat,
what to buy and how to stretch
food dollars.
It seems that some value
meals arent such a value, after
all. Government analysts have
released a report showing healthy
foods whole
grains, fresh
fruits and vegetables are all
cheaper than
their junk-food
or fast-food
counterparts.
The new information lists
Kumlien
foods from least
expensive to
most expensive
in this order: whole grains, dairy,
vegetables, fruit, meat.
Even more expensive than
meat? Junk food.
Because meat costs a lot of
money and the cheaper cuts of
meat are typically higher in fat, I
tell people to back away from the
meat and incorporate other things
into their diets, like lentils, grains
and even quinoa. If you havent
had quinoa before, try it. You use
it like rice, and it even tastes like
rice.
If you want to save money and
make sure the meals you serve are
contributing to a healthy diet, you
should start with a plan. For one
thing, it will prevent you from seeing the junk thats on sale.
Start by taking a look at whats
on the family calendar for the
week. If you have active kids, be
sure to look at their practice and
game schedule. And if family
members work at varying times,
try to make sure healthy choices
will be available when theyre
ready to eat.
If you just dont have time to
cook a meal during the week,
spend a few hours on your weekend making several big meals.
Then freeze in appropriate portion
sizes and reheat for a quick meal
Dirty Dozen
Strawberries, apples, nectarines, peaches, celery, grapes, cherries,
spinach, tomatoes, sweet bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers
Clean 15
Avocado, sweet corn, pineapples, cabbage, sweet peas (frozen),
onions, asparagus, mangoes, papayas, kiwi, eggplant, honeydew melon, grapefruit, cantaloupe, cauliflower
on the go.
Fruits and vegetables that are
out of season or are exotic also can
be expensive at the store. So rather
than shop with your stomach, look
at whats in season and on sale.
Produce that comes from closer to
home isnt just fresher, but often
can be cheaper as well.
Believe it or not, organic foods
arent always the best use of your
familys food budget. It depends
on the food.
Each year the government puts
together a list of the Dirty Dozen and Clean 15. The Dirty
Dozen are the top 12 fruits and
vegetables that are highest in
pesticides and thus best to buy
organic, while the Clean 15 are
those lowest in pesticide residues
that do not need to be purchased in
organic form.
Farmers markets are also a great
way to try new foods. Use the
internet or talk to the vendors at a
farmers market, and theyll often
have recipes or ways to use the
various vegetables. Its a great way
to explore new flavors.
If you really like supporting
local farmers while saving money,
you might consider joining a CSA
or community supported agriculture. In these programs, you pay
upfront and then receive a whole
seasons worth of produce once a
week for the growing season.
It is typically cheaper to go with
a CSA. You know its fresh and
organic, and you may even get
back money from your health plan
if they offer a wellness incentive.
If you find a CSA that has a dropoff location nearby, it can be even
more convenient than going to the
store.
Its one thing to buy fresh fruit
and vegetables, and its another to
eat them. Often, the sticking point
is how to prepare them.
If youre going to a farmers
market or CSA, ask about how
they recommend preparing the
vegetable. You want to be sure,
especially when trying a new vegetable, that you prepare it properly
so your family will give the new
dish a chance.
Using olive oil rather than butter
is better not just for taste but also
health. You can also try steaming
the vegetables, or putting them in
the microwave to help retain more
nutrients.
If you really want to get the
flavors to pop, try throwing in
some fresh herbs. Try starting with
herbs like mint, basil and oregano,
which can easily be grown in a
container at home or purchased at

and oregano work great in tomato sauces and salads. Fresh mint
tossed into a salad will really liven
it up.
If you use a homemade oil
and vinegar dressing to top it off,
youll save money, too.

The Power of Posture

The Harvard social psychologist Amy Cuddy has done a variety of interesting studies on the power of posture. Her research
demonstrates that standing tall and engaging in various power
poses can actually improve our performance. It wont endow you
with knowledge you dont already have or allow you to have superhuman strengths, but standing like a superhero will allow you to
make the most of your inherent abilities and knowledge. One of the
interesting things to come out of her research is the finding that
you can do these power poses in private for relatively short periods of time (as little as one or two minutes) and see improvements
in your performance. The standard power pose is simply standing
tall, putting your hands on your hips (arms akimbo), pulling your
shoulders back (to thrust out your chest), and holding your head
up. Pretty easy to do, and we are also warned that powerless
poses, such as being hunched over and dropping your head can
lead to poorer performances. Lets face it, when we look and feel
confident, we are more likely to perform well, and God wants us to
do and be well. So stand up tall and hold your head high.

She explained that the

a photo of the Crab Nebula

news release. Recognizable
deep-sky objects are scattered
across my vision of outer
space.
She also used over 1,000
Swarovski crystals, which
create constellations such as
Virgo, Pisces, Orion, Cassiopeia and Ursa Major and

Stoughton head coach Dave Taebel higs his daughter, senior Kelsey Taebel, Tuesday after she won the final individual state berth at the WIAA
Division 1 Middleton sectional at Blackhawk Country Club. Kelsey Taebel finished with an 86 and held off Waunakee sophomore Samantha Soulier
with a bogey and a par on a two-hole playoff for state.

Senior Kelsey Taebel didnt even

know three individual players could
advance to state until the officials
started talking about a playoff near
the end of Tuesdays WIAA Division 1 Middleton sectional.
Taebel went into the clubhouse
with an third-place 86 and had to

wait for 20 golfers to finish play, and
when the scores were in, Waunakee
sophomore Samantha Soulier had
also shot an 86 meaning Taebel
would have to duel with her to earn
the final spot at state.
After both girls bogeyed the first
playoff hole, Taebel remained calm
and marched through the second
playoff hole with poise on her way
to a par and her first individual state
berth.
I knew it was going to be really
close today because the course plays
really long, and I dont hit it the
furthest. I wanted this really bad, so

I just wanted to keep going even if I
had a bad hole, Kelsey Taebel said.
I feel really relieved and happy that
I get to play two more days as a high
school golfer.
Kelsey Taebel said the wait in the
clubhouse was tough, and Soulier
came in with a 38 on the back nine
to tie her for third.

team berth which allowed her to

T h e S t o u g h t o n g i r l s t e nnis team has been chasing its

first WIAA Division 1 state
team tennis berth in the past
two years. That goal took a hit
Monday when the Vikings hosted the subsectional meet and
missed out on eight combined
points from No. 2, 3 singles and
their No. 3 doubles team.
The Vikings advanced both
their No. 1 singles and doubles
flights, but saw their No. 2 singles player and No. 3 doubles
team upset, while not scoring
any points at No. 3 singles.
Lydia Brekken got a difficult
draw at No. 2 singles, facing
Madison Easts Grace Rider in the first round. Brekken
dropped the first set big only to
battle back to earn a three-set
1-6, 6-1, 6-1 upset.

Things didnt get any easier for Brekken in the second
round, however, facing second-seeded Celeste Bayer of
Waunakee who beat her 2-6,
6-1, 6-0.
Sun Prairie, which figures to
be among the favorites to win
the sectional, got an upset over
Paige Halverson and Ashley
Fisher in the second round after
the Stoughton No. 3 doubles
team defeated Madison East
6-0, 6-0.
The top-seeded Paige Halverson and Fisher went on to be
upset by the fourth-seeded Erin
Vertz and Kaia Feldman of Sun
Prairie 6-4, 6-2 in the second
round.
T h i r d - s e e d e d S t a cy B e n oy fell 6-4, 6-4 in her opening

enough points to remain in the
state team hunt, advancing at
No. 1 and 4 singles and at the
top two doubles spots.
Sun Prairie and Watertown
scored 18 points to lead the
eight-team field into Wednesdays Badger sectional at 9a.m.
in Lake Geneva. The Cardinals,
who advanced to team state for
the first time last year, moved
on at No. 1, 2, and 3 singles, as
well as No. 3 doubles. Watertown moved on at all four singles flights and at No. 1 doubles.
Stoughton sits in third place
with 16 points.
Top-seeded senior No. 1 singles player Sarah Benoy (246) cruised to a 6-0, 6-0 shutout over Madison La Follettes
Abbi Mullen atop the singles
lineup.
Krissy Pohold (15-9) was the
only other Vikings single player to advance to Wednesdays
Badger sectional, sweeping
both Martina Walling of Fort
Atkinson and Payton Lee of
Monona Grove 6-0, 6-0 at No.
4 singles.
Second-seeded seniors Kendra Halverson and Sydney Johnson (13-14) cruised to a 6-0,
6-0 drubbing of Fort Atkinsons
Hannah Beckman and Kastyn
Hebbe at No. 1 doubles.
Stoughton seniors Anna Nelson and Marissa Robson (188) opened their tournament by
cruising to a 6-0, 6-1 win at No.
2 doubles. The top-seeded doubles added a 6-3, 7-5 win over
Watertowns Emily Krysinski
and Calley Wesemann.

Neither a delay in scoring the meet or a

false start was about to stop junior Maddie
Kooima on Tuesday evening. She won two
individual events and helped the host Vikings
add a relay win as they nearly pulled off an
upset against Badger South rival Fort Atkinson in an 87-83 loss.
Stoughton never trailed by more than eight
points, but was never quite able to catch the
Blackhawks.
(Fort Atkinson) and Oregon are our closest competitors, and we lost both of those
meets closely, head coach Katie Talmadge
said. I emphasize to the girls, that its more
important to get best times than to win meets
because as a program, thats the direction we
need to go.
Maddie Kooima wasnt thinking about any
of that as she stepped into the pool for her
100-yard backstroke race, though.
Instead, the junior waited as the meet officials and scorers table conferred, which was
followed up by a premature starting gun.

She remained focused through all of it

and went on to post a lifetime-best time of
1 minute, 1.73 seconds, which moved her to
within a little more than 1 1/2 seconds of her
coachs Stoughton school record.
I would love to see that record fall this
year, said Talmadge (formerly Katie Liebmann). That would be a highlight of my
coaching career seeing all of my records
fall.

It wasnt the result the Stoughton High School volleyball team

wanted Thursday at Monona
Grove, but despite a 3-2 (18-25,
25-16, 25-22, 20-25, 13-15) loss,
the Vikings did show they definitely will compete for a Badger
South Conference title this season.
I am very confident about
playing (Monona Grove) in the
conference tournament because
we are going to come in and
want revenge, senior Rachel
Hedman said.
Stoughton (18-2 overall, 4-1
Badger South) still has one more
regular season match in the conference, but the girls are guaranteed to be one of the top three
seeds and will have a chance to
make some noise Saturday at
Monroe High School in the Badger South tournament, possibly
even earning a rematch with
Monona Grove.
This matchup is great. It is
competitive. It is fun. We hope to
see them again, head coach Kelly Sorensen said.
There were ups-and-downs
in Thursdays match. Hedman
thought she and her teammates
came out with a lot of intensity
and emotion but got down too
early during the first set.
But instead of letting that setback get to them, Stoughton
wanted to really push back in the
second set, and they did so by
building an 8-1 lead early with
four kills by Hedman. Stoughton led 20-10 at one point before
closing out the Silvver Eagles
and tying the match at 1-1.
Hedman had four kills and an
ace to help the Vikings jump out
to an 11-5 lead in the third set,

Golf: Kelsey Taebel heading to state meet next week

We knew the scores were going to be
elevated a little bit here, so we were just
trying to get the girls to believe that and
stay positive if they had a tough hole or
stretch of holes because anything could
happen, Dave Taebel said.
Middleton won the sectional with a
322. Beaver Dams Ashley Kulka (82)
and Veronas Lauren Shorter (84) also
advanced to state.
The state meet is at 8a.m. Monday-Tuesday, Oct. 10-11, at University
Ridge Golf Course.
The Badger Conference meet, which
was moved due to heavy rains, is at
8:30a.m. Thursday at The Oaks Golf
Course in Cottage Grove. The Vikings
were 2-3 in Badger South duals and will
be in the first group.
Sophomore Bre Viken hits her second

shot on the ninth hole Tuesday in the
D1 Middleton sectional. She finished
with a 95.
and it is challenging. And she just hit it
great all day.
She keeps it in play and is a good
putter. She hits her driver straight. You
can really be a good player if you can do
that.
The Vikings ended up sixth as a team
with a 396. Sophomore Bre Viken shot a
95. Freshman Myranda Kotlowski was
next with a 106, and senior Sam Zweck
finished her high school career with a
109. Sophomore Renee Andersons 111
was thrown out.

Vikings led 12-11 but a
few missed serves allowed
Monona Grove to close
them out.
As a team, we fought
and competed for every
single point. I am really
proud of them for not getting down, Sorensen said.
There were times when we
were down and we fought to
come back, but there were
also times when we were up
and we let them in, which
hurts.
Hedman finished with a
monster stat line in the loss
with 44 kills, 16 digs and
four aces. Junior Hannah
Wirag also was huge on
defense with 22 digs, and
senior Emma Holtan added
two blocks.
Senior Maggie Jo Wirag
finished with 47 assists,
which also helped Hedman
(.375 accuracy) and Panthofer (.404 accuracy) have
high hit percentages.
Overall we had a few
missed serves and a couple
of them were at very bad
times in the match unfortunately, just a couple of silly
mistakes. But overall, I am
really happy with the way
our back row played today.
Our defense was solid,
Sorensen said. We served
tough even though we had a
lot of errors, but that is still
one of those focuses that
kind of goes along with the
mental toughness in the
moment when it is a close
Regionals
Freshman Myranda Kotlowski shot a
season-best 101 on Sept. 28 in the Oregon regional at The Legend of Bergamont Golf Course, helping the Vikings

with an 82, while sophomore Bre Viken
(90) and senior Sam Zweck (98) finished
the scoring.
Oregon (349) Sun Prairie (360) and

game to make sure we are

aggressive but getting the
ball in the court.
It does help when a player
contributes so much in the
box score like Hedman did,
and it didnt really matter
where she is on the court.
She is a leader physically, mentally and emotionally. She is so positive and is
always smiling and saying
something to encourage her
teammates and to try and
keep them calm, Sorensen
said. Not only has she been
a great offensive threat,
but defensively she is just
as strong in the back row.
She really works hard in
the back row, not only with
serves received and defense
but also being back there
swinging as well.
She has been consistent
this season, and it has been
fun to see how much she
has grown in the past four
years.
That leadership she brings
is also a big contribution.
Despite always being one of
the leaders on the box score
this season, Hedman still
said her role is to motivate
the rest of the team to do the
best they can, as well.
I am trying to keep people energetic and loud. It is
a big part of what I think
my role on the team is,
Hedman said.

Panthers Kelsey Taebel and Soulier

walked to the first hole.
Kelsey Taebel had a chance at a par
putt on that first playoff hole, but she
just missed it and tapped-in for a bogey.
Soulier then nailed a tough 6-foot putt for
bogey to force another playoff hole.
The girls went to the second hole on
the course, and Kelsey Taebel knocked
her drive in the center of the fairway
while Soulier sliced hers to the right of
the fairway.
Kelsey Taebel then hit a nice second
shot that stuck on the green, about 20-feet
from the cup. Soulier, on the other hand
ended up off the green in between some
trees.
Soulier didnt go down easy, however.
She hit a nice third shot that ended up on
the green at about the same distance as
the previous holes putt she made.
Kelsey Taebel once again just missed
a chance at clinching a state berth but
tapped-in for par. Soulier didnt have
the putter on her side this time, though,
as she hit her putt past the hole to give
Kelsey Taebel the win.
The emotions were high afterward for
both her and her father, head coach Dave
Taebel.
She had the advantage on the first
hole and that girl made an awesome putt,
and I thought the same thing was going
to happen on the second, Dave Taebel
said. She played steady all day. This is
a course that is tough. It is long for girls,

Elizabeth Cornell
Elizabeth Cornell passed

away at 88 years young on Tuesday, Sept. 27, 2016, at Oregon
Manor surrounded by her loving
family.
Liz was born on Dec. 24,
1927, the first of 12 children
to Oscar and Marie Swenson
of Stoughton. She worked at
Schultz Brothers variety store
for 26 years before retiring to
spend time with her children and
grandchildren. Liz lived many
years at Greenspire apartments
where she made some great
friends. She liked the simple
things in life: a cup of coffee
early in the morning, playing
cards, Yahtzee and laughing with
her family. Liz enjoyed Sundays
screaming at the Packers and
rooting for the Brewers. She
loved listening to country music
especially Charlie Pride and
Daniel ODonnell.
Liz was a woman of strong
faith and attended many services
Photo submitted
at Covenant Lutheran Church.

Her children remember one particular Christmas in 1967 on a
Sunday when there was a blizzard but she was determined to
get to church. They all piled in
the car and got stuck, but two
boys were nice enough to give
them a push and off they went.
They all had a good laugh and
listened to a great service. Every
Wednesday, her usual day off
from Schultz Brothers, she
would make a great meal for her
whole family. Her grandchildren will always remember their
G-Ma making mac n cheese
with cut up hot dogs, having
Keebler Elf fudge cookies, tiny
cans of soda and rocking her
youngest grandchild Beau to
sleep in the sun singing You
are my Sunshine. Liz adored
taking care of her grandchildren
and two young cousins, Sam and
Zach Eifert.
Liz is survived by her three
children, Lil Ofsthun, Vickie
(Verne) Nelson and Brian (Tess)
Cornell; seven grandchildren,
April and Bret Ofsthun, Joshua
(Chelsey) Nelson, Jessica (Andy
Koepnick) Nelson, Beau Cornell
and Jeff and Nick Mason; and
two great grandchildren, Jacob
A young Elizabeth Cornell
and Jaren Nelson.

Per Lizs wishes, a gathering of friends and family was
held on Monday, Oct. 3 at Cress
Funeral Home in Stoughton.
A special thank you to the
staff of Oregon Manor, Care
Wisconsin, and Agrace HospiceCare Inc. for the great care they
gave to Liz.

those who mourn, for they will
be comforted.

3. The Planned Development District
is intended to provide more incentives
for redevelopment in areas of the community which are experiencing a lack of
reinvestment, or which require flexible
zoning treatment because of factors
which are specific to the site. This district is designed to forward both aesthetic and economic objectives of the city by
controlling the site design and the land
use, appearance, density, or intensity
of development within the district in a
manner which is consistent with sound
land use, urban design, and economic
revitalization principles. The application
of these standards will ensure long-term
progress and broad participation toward
these principles. Refer to section 78-914
for the procedures applicable to proposal review in this standard zoning district.
The city intends to use the planned development district to provide a mechanism
for review of traditional neighborhood
developments per State Statute 66.1027.
Development standards: Development standards are flexible within this
zoning district. Refer to subsection 78914(2) for the range of development standards potentially available in this zoning
district; and

Parking: Council reacted in response to residents concerns about safety

Roby Road.
Alders discussed the subject at two meetings in September and heard comments
from members of the public before deciding to vote against a Public Safety committee recommendation to follow the citys
plan calling for a bike lane on the east side
of Kings Lynn Road north of Roby Road
and about 150 feet past Felland Street,
where Kings Lynn comes to a dead end.
The fact that the bike path would have ended at a cornfield was central to several alders
reversing their earlier positions in support of
extending the bike lane and restricting parking on the east side of Kings Lynn Road.
The land north of the dead end is in the
citys comprehensive plan for future development. At one time the area was approved
for a new Wal-Mart Supercenter, but the
company decided not to go ahead after
a controversial approval process. Kings
Lynn is whats known as a collector street
and was built wider than the average city
street to accommodate a bike path.
A handful of people spoke against the

proposed bike lane plan at the councils
last meeting, Tuesday, Sept. 27, but at the
previous meeting, two weeks earlier, 18
people spoke against (four spoke in favor).
One alder wanted to go further.
Ald. Scott Truehl (D-4), who lives on
Kings Lynn Road, attempted to have the
council reconsider the vote so he could
amend his motion to eliminate parking
restrictions on all of Kings Lynn Road. He
and several opponents of the citys plan
had thought thats what they had accomplished with the initial vote last Tuesday.
Mayor Olson called for a 10-minute
recess in order to clear up the misunderstanding. When the council returned to
open session, Truehls motion to reconsider failed on a 4-6 vote, with Dennis Kittleson, Sid Boersma and Kathleen Tass Johnson voting in support of reconsideration
and Tim Swadley, Regina Hirsch, Mike
Engelberger, Paul Lawrence, Greg Jenson
and Pat OConnor voting against it.
The issue gained the citys attention after
Mark Johnson, a homeowner on Kings
Lynn Road, began collecting signatures

in July asking the city to remove the bike
lanes on both sides of Kings Lynn Road
between Jackson Street and Roby Road
and also remove a parking restriction on
the east side of Kings Lynn.
At the councils Sept. 13 meeting, Johnson said he went door-to-door and collected 55 signatures of people who agreed with
him. He submitted the petition to police
chief Greg Leck, but the Public Safety
committee rejected the request.
Citizen opponents of the citys plans cited several reasons:
Bike lanes extended north of Roby Road
would lead nowhere because Kings Lynn
dead ends about 150 north of Felland
Street;
A child with Down syndrome lives on
that segment of Kings Lynn and would be
in danger if parking were not allowed on
the east side of the street;
A steep grade on the east side makes it
difficult for automobiles to get up driveways during the winter months, so many
homeowners choose to park on the street in
front of their homes.

About four blocks of Kings Lynn Road
were reconstructed this summer. The work
involved spot curb and gutter replacement,
spot sidewalk and apron replacement, the
installation of traffic calming islands, and
resurfacing the pavement. The project also
was to include restriping the centerline and
painting on-street bike lanes and shared
parking/bike lanes.
In a memo to the Public Safety committee, planning director Rodney Scheel wrote
that the bike lanes and parking restriction
were already in place for Kings Lynn
Road from Jackson Street to Roby Road.
He added that bike lanes were not painted on Kings Lynn from north of Buckingham Road to about 900 feet north of
Roby Road, but a plat for the area shows
on-street bike lanes on both sides of the
street. The design and reconstruction plan
included bike lanes for the full-length of
Kings Lynn Road.

Norse: Development has added 25 houses

the final plat if it meets those conditions
and is substantially similar to the preliminary plat.
Arnett also needs approval of the
Capital Area Regional Planning Commission to amend the citys urban service area for his proposed addition,
however. Planning director Rodney
Scheel said amending the urban service
area is a 60- to 90-day process, which
means this addition is likely to evolve
through winter and break ground in the
spring.
Conditions remain
Chief among the conditions attached
to the preliminary plat is Arnetts plan
for sanitary sewer in the development,
which is being built on Page Street and
an extension of Carl Avenue.
Utilities director Bob Kardasz said
there are no issues with the developers plans for water and electric service,
but his proposal for privately owned
grinder pumps instead of a gravity-based system or a lift station to convey wastewater to the citys system is a
problem.
The concept is not standard, and we
see some real challenges, Kardasz told
the council.
He explained that the physical layout
of the land under development wouldnt

but the message is if this is how you

plan to serve it with sanitary sewer, its
not going to work. Youre going to need
another way.
Whats left?

City approval of sanitary sewer
system
City approval of erosion control
and stormwater management plans
DNR approval of amended water quality plan
Dedicating parkland
Reimbursing the city for costs
Submitting performance bond
Submitting construction plans
Drafting developers agreement
Big plans
allow sanitary sewers to get deep

enough in the ground to be able to discharge into the citys collection system.
Its got to be lifted somehow, he
said.
Scheel said the plan doesnt conform
to city ordinances, and Kardasz said its
not likely to be approved by the city.
City attorney Matt Dregne said the
preliminary plat could be approved with
the conditions the city has attached,

125: Church invites public to celebrate anniversary at special Sunday services

was incorporated and the cornerstone for the new church was laid
by the Rev. H.A. Preus, the synod
president.
Almost everything is still original in the classic, gothic-style,
brick church with a tall steeple, which was built for just over
$7,500. The architect was Jens J.
Naeseth of Stoughton. The general
contractor was A.A. Flaskrud and
I.N. Gumnes did the interior painting and decorating.
Many members faithfully donated many hours of labor and three
men from the congregation were
specially honored for their part in
building the church, as solid gold
watches were presented to Tollef
Langemoe, Knute Oden and Gunder Edwards.
Upon completion, the church
was dedicated on May 27, 1892,
and while it looks today much like
it did back then, there have been
upgrades throughout the years.
A 61-key pipe organ was added
in 1908, with a pedalboard of 27
notes to control nine stops.
The pipes visible on the front
still display the original green
shading, stenciling and gold leaf
ornamentation, which was in
vogue in the early 1900s. The
organ has a distinct low, melodious
tone, and its distinct sound comes
from the low wind pressure.
The circle communion area is
a Norwegian tradition, said longtime parishioner Lila Nordley.
The altar painting is an original by
Herbjorn Gausta, one of the first
professional artists of Norwegian
immigrant origin.
Until a few years ago, the church
had a school, as well, which was
started in 1927 as the Western

Koshkonong Day School.
Nordley told the Hub on Tuesday morning the church has
around 300 registered parishioners, but maybe half of them
attend regularly. She said its just a
sign of the times.
Its sad, it really is, because
church is not an important thing,
and when I grew up, that was the
most important thing in our lives,
she said. But everybody was
