Share study purpose, process and information for the upcoming virtual open house. 3. Share updates – Upcoming Public Engagement BACKGROUND Dakota County has been partnering with MnDOT to proactively address safety for students traveling to and from schools, with a focus on safety for those who walk and bike to school. There are about 43 schools in Dakota County adjacent to the County and MnDOT highway systems. The assessments started earlier this year. The focus is on safety issues near the schools and recommendations for improvements. Dakota County is committed to providing a safe environment for all people who use the transportation system. School zones are a priority for safety since they involve younger pedestrians, bicyclists, and new drivers navigating County and State roadways. Through past work with schools and school districts, County staff has heard common themes including concerns for pedestrians, bicyclists, and younger drivers traveling along and across higher speed roadways. Dakota County has worked with several schools in the County to address safety concerns in school zones. However, a consistent and proactive approach is needed to review safety at all the schools on the County and MnDOT highway network. The assessment is taking a systemic approach to safety within school zones to identify common challenges and recommended treatments that are appropriate to apply throughout the County. An advisory committee has been formed with representatives from these partner agencies, and the committee will meet throughout the study process to provide input on the safety assessments and recommendations. Public engagement was held during the summer to understand concerns related to travel to/from schools. The project team has evaluated each location and prepared draft recommendations which will now be shared with the public in a 2nd virtual public engagement in Late November – December. Improvement recommendations focus on a comprehensive approach to safety including engineering, education, and enforcement. The recommendations developed as part of the study will take a comprehensive approach to improving safety by identifying solutions in engineering, education, and enforcement. The full study report summary is expected to be prepared in early 2021. ATTACHMENTS School Safety Study Locations Updated Schedule QUESTIONS The following questions are intended to help assist in review of the packet materials. 1.

Opportunity to review and discuss the Public Review Draft Natural Resources Management Plan 2. Opportunity to review and discuss the first 4 chapters of the Public Review Draft Master Plan 3. Opportunity to review and discuss the Traditional Cultural Properties Survey Report BACKGROUND At the July 23, 2020 meeting, the Planning Commission provided direction on the Spring Lake Park Reserve Long- Term and Ten-Year concepts and identified priorities for implementation within the next five years. The staff and consultant team began preparing the Draft Master Plan (MP) and Natural Resources Management Plan (MRMP) documents. The Public Review Draft NRMP and the first 4 chapters of the Public Review Draft MP have been prepared for review. Concurrent with MP and NRMP document development, the Upper Sioux Community Tribal Historic Preservation Office completed a Traditional Cultural Properties (TCP) Survey for portions of the park that would be impacted by new recreation recommended in the Master Plan Concepts. The TCP Survey identified a higher concentration of TCP within the park than previously known, particularly within the Upper Park (Scharr’s Bluff and Mill areas). As a result, additional consultation is needed with the Tribal Historic Preservation Officers (THPOs) from the Prairie Island Indian Community, Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community, Lower Sioux Indian Community, and the Upper Sioux Community. Discussion with the THPOs, which will take place in November 2020, will focus on best practices for protecting TCP and will help determine MP concept changes needed. Staff anticipates presenting the Public Review Draft Master Plan to the Planning Commission in January 2021 and seeking a recommendation to release the plans for public review. ATTACHMENTS 1.

In recent decades, there has been a steady march of economic development toward our Reservation community. We are now surrounded by it. Our Tribe has been fortunate to play a significant role in the economic revitalization of our neighbors. With 4,200 employees, SMSC is the largest employer in Scott County. Our success with our tribal enterprises has allowed SMSC to provide a range of governmental services to our members. It has also enabled SMSC to partner with local governments to meet our broader community’s shared needs such as roads, water and sewer systems, and emergency services. Our Tribe administers social services for children and families, mental health and chemical dependency counseling, employee assistance, emergency assistance, public works, roads, water and sewer systems, health programs and a dental clinic, vehicle fleet and physical plant maintenance, membership enrollment, education assistance, regulatory commissions, economic planning and development, enterprise management and operations, cultural programs, an active judicial system, and many other governmental services. Our tribal government assumes full responsibility for the construction of all on-Reservation infrastructure. And in many instances, our infrastructure serves the needs of the neighboring communities surrounding our Reservation.

  • Was Gen. Henry Sibley's Son Hanged in Mankato?
    The Filicide Enigma: Was Gen. Henry Sibley’s Son Ha nged in Ma nkato? By Walt Bachman Introduction For the first 20 years of Henry Milord’s life, he and Henry Sibley both lived in the small village of Mendota, Minnesota, where, especially during Milord’s childhood, they enjoyed a close relationship. But when the paths of Sibley and Milord crossed in dramatic fashion in the fall of 1862, the two men had lived apart for years. During that period of separation, in 1858 Sibley ascended to the peak of his power and acclaim as Minnesota’s first governor, presiding over the affairs of the booming new state from his historic stone house in Mendota. As recounted in Rhoda Gilman’s excellent 2004 biography, Henry Hastings Sibley: Divided Heart, Sibley had occupied key positions of leadership since his arrival in Minnesota in 1834, managing the regional fur trade and representing Minnesota Territory in Congress before his term as governor. He was the most important figure in 19th century Minnesota history. As Sibley was governing the new state, Milord, favoring his Dakota heritage on his mother’s side, opted to live on the new Dakota reservation along the upper Minnesota River and was, according to his mother, “roaming with the Sioux.” Financially, Sibley was well-established from his years in the fur trade, and especially from his receipt of substantial sums (at the Dakotas’ expense) as proceeds from 1851 treaties. 1 Milord proba bly quickly spe nt all of the far more modest benefit from an earlier treaty to which he, as a mixed-blood Dakota, was entitled.

  • 2020-2023 MN STIP.Pdf
    395 John Ireland Blvd. St. Paul, MN 55155 October 15, 2019 To the Reader: The State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) is a comprehensive four-year schedule of planned transportation projects in Minnesota for state fiscal years 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023. These projects are for state trunk highways, local roads and bridges, rail crossings and transit capital and operating assistance. This document represents an investment of over $6.7 billion in federal, state, and local funds over the four years. This document is the statewide transportation program in which MnDOT, local governments, and community and business interest groups worked together in eight District Area Transportation Partnerships (ATPs) to discuss regional priorities and reach agreement on important transportation investments. This state process was developed in response to the Federal “Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) of 1991” which focused on enhanced planning processes, greater state and local government responsibility, and more citizen input to decision making. The process has continued under the following acts: The 1998 Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21); the 2005 Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU); the 2012 Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21); and the 2015 Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act (FAST), signed into law December 4, 2015. Any questions and comments on specific projects included in this program may be directed to the identified MnDOT District Transportation office listed in the Program Listing sections of the document. To further assist you in using this information, a searchable database will be available by October 2019 on the Internet at: http://www.dot.state.mn.us/planning/program/stip.html To request any MnDOT document in an alternative format, please call 651-366-4720.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Faculty Scholarship by an authorized administrator of Mitchell Hamline Open Access. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Minnesota Bounties On Dakota Men During The .SU .-Dakota War Abstract The .SU .-Dakota War was one of the formative events in Minnesota history, and despite the passage of time, it still stirs up powerful emotions among descendants of the Dakota and white settlers who experienced this tragedy. Hundreds of people lost their lives in just over a month of fighting in 1862. By the time the year was over, thirty-eight Dakota men had been hanged in the largest mass execution in United States history. Not long afterwards, the United States abrogated its treaties with the Dakota, confiscated their reservations along the Minnesota River, and forced most of the Dakota to remove westward. While dozens of books and articles have been written about these events, scholars have largely ignored an important legal development that occurred in Minnesota during the following summer. The inneM sota Adjutant General, at the direction of Minnesota Governors Alexander Ramsey and Henry Swift, issued a series of orders offering rewards for the killing of Dakota men found within the State.

His paintings are very symbolic in nature depicting traditional tribal scenes and imagery. The symbolism of the cover painting for the Oceti Sakowin Essential Understandings and Standards Project is representative of several meanings. TheOceti Sakowin tradition of oral teaching among generations is depicted by showing an elder in the center. The elder is surrounded by seven people who represent different generations. The people, as well as the seven tipis, represent theOceti Sakowin (Seven Council Fires). The dragon flies represent hope and prosperity with the thoughts of bringing goodness to the tribes and people. A HISTORY OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE OCETI SAKOWIN ESSENTIAL UNDERSTANDINGS AND STANDARDS “The hope is that citizens who are well educated about theOceti Sakowin history and culture will be more likely to make better decisions in the arena of Indian issues and to get along better with one another.” - Lakota Scholar, Dr.
