Chris Wicklund. Jennifer Rhode Promoted to Finance Director

Jennifer Rhode’s career plan was to work at a private “It’s been a challenge, but I have to say our department firm as a Certified Public Accountant (CPA). She had never really pulled together,” said Rhode. “You just learn to roll considered government work. However, after graduating with the punches and take things as they come. Just like from Concordia College – Moorhead she accepted a everybody else we’re trying to weave our way through to position with the Minnesota State Auditor’s Office.

Instead, it led to a 25 year career Rhode plans to take things in stride and continue to serve in government finance culminating in her latest role as other departments and help guide them through these Burnsville’s Finance Director. uncertain financial times.

Rhode spent her first 12 years auditing across the state. “We want to continue what we do and do it well.

The transition brought unique advantages.

“I don’t think it’s necessary, but it does help,” explained Rhode. “You understand what the auditors need to do, so when they’re asking for something I can sometimes predict what root question they’re trying to answer.”

Familiarity with the City of Burnsville’s Finance Department has helped Rhode’s transition to Finance Director in this challenging year. For 13 years she worked as a City accountant; was promoted to Assistant Finance Director in 2018; and accepted the Finance Director role just days before a city-wide closure caused by the COVID-19 pandemic this spring. Jennifer Rhode was promoted to Finance Director in March. 3 E V E N T S Rockin’ Lunch Hour Get ready to rock out at this summer’s last Rockin’ Lunch Hour concert!

Date Saved: 7/7/2020 12:22:43 PM Document Path: M:\Users\Departments\Clerk\Precinct Mapping\Precinct_map_22x34_2020.mxd What’s Your Watershed? Rainwater that runs off your roof, lawn and driveway flows directly into a nearby pond, lake or river without being treated. These neighborhood ponds, lakes and rivers are part of a watershed – a land area that channels rainfall and snowmelt to smaller waterbodies before reaching an outflow point. In Burnsville, runoff eventually makes its way to the Minnesota, Vermillion or Credit rivers.

Where the water goes depends on topography – water always moves downhill. For example, rain falling within the Crystal Lake sub-watershed flows into Crystal Lake. Water leaves Crystal Lake through a storm drain pipe into Twin Lake, which eventually connects to the Minnesota River through other storm drain pipes and waterbodies.

Where does your rainwater runoff go? First, find the approximate location of your home on the map. Next, find the lake or wetland labeled within your watershed boundary – this is where your runoff goes first. Arrows indicate where your water goes from there: the Minnesota River, Credit River or Vermillion River.

Ways to Reduce Your Runoff

Runoff water picks up pollutants when it runs across lawns, driveways and streets. These pollutants can harm your local waterbody and eventually the river your watershed is named for. Here are a few ways you can reduce runoff and About 185 miles of underground storm drain pipes pollution: connect Burnsville’s street gutters, ponds and lakes. Storm drain systems prevent flooding by transporting • Point downspouts away from your driveway water off streets and away from homes. and onto the lawn • Reduce nutrients that reach the water – use less fertilizer and sweep up grass clippings • Catch roof runoff in a rain barrel and use it to water your garden • Install a beautiful raingarden to capture runoff 8 Keep Them Wild: Don’t Feed Deer or Turkeys Intentional or Not, Feeding Deer and Turkeys is a Bad Idea

DISEASE SPREAD • Spreading Germs: Deer and turkeys spread germs to each other through saliva and droppings when they gather at feeding sites. • Chronic Wasting Disease: This disease is a fatal neurological disorder for deer and was recently discovered nearby in Farmington – this is the first time its been seen in Dakota County. It can spread when deer congregate at feeding sites.

AGGRESSIVE TENDENCIES • Property Damage: Deer and turkeys are likely to hang around and cause damage to landscaping when they get comfortable around people. • Physical Aggressiveness: Turkeys can become bolder and act more intimidating towards people when they get used to being fed.

TRAFFIC MISHAPS • Animal Death or Injury: Deer and turkeys are more likely to cross roadways when they travel to and from feeding sites which leads to more chances of being struck by a vehicle.

IT’S THE LAW • City ordinance prohibits placing birdfeed, corn, salt licks or similar items on the ground. All feeders should be hung at least 5 feet off the ground.

To prevent problems with deer and turkeys, keep areas around songbird feeders clean. City ordinance prohibits placing birdfeed or corn on the ground. Feeding deer is bad for them and your neighborhood. 9 Burnsville’s First-Ever Inclusive Playground is Now Open

The City’s first-ever inclusive playground, which was made possible in partnership with the Burnsville Lions Club, is now open at Red Oak Park (12100 River Hills Drive). The finished playground includes traditional play that is designed in ways that are more accessible for people with a variety of ability levels.

“The playground is designed to be a place where all are welcome, providing opportunities for everyone to play, socialize and learn” explained Burnsville Parks, Recreation & Facilities Director Garrett Beck. “The playground will create awareness, break down barriers and foster friendships.” A young Burnsville resident is ready to show his strength and agility as he prepares for his climb on the Much of the finished designed focuses on group play new inclusive playground at Red Oak Park. experiences meant to bring people together. Burnsville is proud to continue to find more ways to bring our diverse community together.

More to Come Even though the playground is incredible the way it is, there is still more to the project. A Bankshot basketball court is being installed, but is still several weeks away from completion. Bankshot™ is a game of skill and challenge! It consists of a nine-station basketball court that takes players through a course of different colored backboards placed at a variety of angles. This self- competitive sport is universally designed for all ages and abilities. The inclusive playground includes interactive pieces such Partnerships Made It Happen as a xylophone and other sensory-rich components. The project was a partnership with the Burnsville Lions Club.

“I am most excited about the willingness of the Burnsville Lions Club to commit $140,000 to make the first all- inclusive playground in Burnsville possible,” said Beck.

The City and Burnsville Lions Club will hold a grand opening for the park in Spring 2021, with hopes that the community will be able to safely and appropriately celebrate the addition of this playground to the Burnsville park system.

Twenty-year veteran, Chris Wicklund, was promoted to Burnsville Police Captain in April 2020. Burnsville is where he always wanted to be, even though he got his start at a different agency. After completing training, Wicklund started his law enforcement career with the University of Minnesota Police Department serving temporary and transitional residents. However, he longed for something different.

“I wanted to work in a community and have the ability to build long-term relationships with the residents I serve,” said Wicklund. “With Burnsville’s focus on community policing it was a perfect fit.”

He joined Burnsville as a Patrol Officer in March 2000. He then became a Field Training Officer (2005), Sergeant (2006), Bicycle Patrol Coordinator (2008) and Community Chris Wicklund was promoted Resources Division Sergeant (2010). to Captain in April 2020. Wicklund served on the Emergency Action Group (EAG) from 2001 – 2011; served on the Crisis Intervention Team since 2010; earned six Distinguished Service Awards (2002, 2006, two in 2008, and 2019); and three Meritorious Service Awards – EAG Tactical Officer Assignment (2001), Multi-housing Best Practices (2012) and Community Resource Assignment (2015). He also earned the coveted Franklin M. Kreml Leadership Award in 2015.

Wicklund holds a bachelor’s degree in Law Enforcement from the University of Minnesota-Mankato and master’s degree in Police Leadership from Concordia. 22 The Call To Remember Every officer has a call that sticks with them, one that will be remembered for their entire life. For newly promoted Captain Chris Wicklund it involved a little boy named Jonathan.

On Oct. 12, 2004 a call that makes everyone’s heart drop came through dispatch – a child wasn’t breathing. Wicklund was one of the many emergency responders that went to that call, and his actions in that traumatic situation built a life- long relationship with the family. Chris Wicklund with Jonathan Anderson at Nine-week old Jonathan Anderson’s heart had a 10 year “Celebration of Life” reunion. stopped. As Wicklund arrived, responders were already working on the infant. While looking around and accessing the scene, Wicklund saw Jane Anderson, Jonathan’s mother, standing alone in complete terror worrying about her child. At that moment he knew exactly what his role on this call was…to be there for Jane.

“What I ended up doing was talking to and removing Jane from the situation and trying to help her and distract her while the medics and the officers were working on Jonathan,” Wicklund said.

Throughout this ordeal, Wicklund called Jane’s husband who was out-of-state on business to explain the situation, drove Jane to Fairview Ridges Hospital, stayed with her while doctors worked on her baby boy, escorted her to the helipad when Jonathan was airlifted to Children’s Hospital in St. Paul, and then drove her to Children’s where Jonathan stayed on a ventilator for 17 days.

This miracle child went 41 minutes without a pulse One of the thank you cards sent to responders and and today is a healthy boy living with cerebral medical staff that helped save Jonathan’s life. palsy and lighting up the world.

Wicklund and the family have kept in touch ever since with Christmas cards, reunions and check-ins throughout the years. The comfort and support Wicklund provided made a life-long impact.

Other Burnsville responders to this incident included Tanya Schwartz (now Police Chief), Rory Bochniak (now retired officer), Sena Dahl (former dispatcher), firefighter/paramedics Terry Ritchie (now Assistant Fire Chief) and Jamie Gerard (now Fire Captain). Jonathan Anderson is now 16 years old and enjoying life. 23 City of Burnsville PRSRT STD Burnsville Bulletin U.S. Postage ECRWSSEDDM PAID 100 Civic Center Parkway Postal Customer Permit #44 Burnsville, MN 55337-3817 Burnsville, MN ECRWSS
