An evolving job
Dollhausen began working for the
city in January 2006 as an administrative assistant to Brehm, who serves as
director of the Opera House and also
the citys Media Services Department.
In 2007, Brehm became the Opera
House director and Dollhausen
became its event coordinator.
They are responsible for every
aspect of the operation, from scheduling shows to arranging accommodations for artists to running the sound
and lights.
The job is all over the board,
Dollhausen explained. We pretty
much spend March to late June/early July booking acts. We run all the
shows here. We advance all the shows,
meaning we call the tour manager or
musician and find out what they need
to make the show run as smoothly as
possible. Theres a lot of preparation
with that the sound and lights and

About osprey
Also called fish eagle, sea hawk, river hawk and fish
hawk, osprey are large raptors that are found throughout
the world and feed almost entirely on fish. An osprey can
reach more than two feet in length with a wingspan of
nearly six feet.
Osprey populations declined drastically in many areas
in the 1950s and 60s. Ornithologists believe their decline was in part due to the toxic effects of insecticides
such as DDT on reproduction. Since the banning of DDT
in the early 1970s, osprey populations have recovered
significantly.

A pair of osprey build a new nest near Lake Kegonsa State Park. Birding expert Pat Ready
told the Hub osprey have attempted to build nests at the site before, but theyve always
blown down in strong winds. He said this pair looks like theyll be successful and have a
nest to return to next year.
he said. The other place is
up by Portage or Baraboo on
the Wisconsin River. Theres
a colony of them forming
there.
At summers end the birds
migrate to Panama, Colombia or elsewhere in South
America.
Ready said hes counted
seven nests on or near the
Yahara River and Lake Kegonsa.

Public works
Public works director Brett
Hebert said hed like to create a dedicated tree crew to
manage and maintain the
citys urban forest. He
talked about hiring two new
staff members to work with
forester Randy Nelson on a
three-person crew, at a net
cost of about $90,000 per
year.
Hebert said the city currently pulls street workers
from their jobs when urban
forestry needs attention.
When staff is doing tree
work, they arent dedicating
time to our street work, he
wrote in his budget memo.
Conversely, when staff is
doing streets work, we arent
addressing our very growing
demand for tree work.
He noted the city plans
to contract out the job of
removing 320 ash trees from
city property because of the
emerald ash borer infestation,
but we have a large number of trees that need routine
pruning, 127 trees need to be
removed, and we have over
90 trimming requests.
Hebert estimated that hiring two employees for urban
forestry would cost roughly
$130,000 annually, but we
would then be able to cut the
amount of money we dedicate to contracted services by
$44,000, resulting in a net
increase of about $90,000 per
year.
Hebert also is looking to
hire a full-time fleet mechanic to service the citys vehicles and equipment. The city
has one first-rate mechanic
doing the job, but its not
enough, Hebert said.
He added that a new
mechanic would have to be
full-time in order to get the

Police
At the police department,
chief Leck hopes to hire an
additional officer in 2017. He
said studies of comparable
cities showed police departments with 26 officers, while
Stoughton has only 22.
Our greatest need is for an
officer on the street, he said.
He estimated one new
officer would cost the city
$75,000 per year and would
reduce the amount needed
for over time. Hes also looking to add a part-time clerical
and dispatch person (at an
annual cost of $25,000) and
is requesting $8,000 to hire
part-time patrol officers.
Fire
Fire chief Scott Wegner hopes to add a full-time
fire equipment technician in
2017, which would cost the
city $67,500 per year. He
explained that the fire department has seen an annual
increase of about 20 percent

Hasty Judgements
It is almost always a mistake to jump to conclusions about other
peoples motives. We may think that someone is doing something
for the worst of reasons, but we really do not and cannot know with
certainty why people do the things they do. Scrutinizing our own
motives and judging ourselves can often be valuable for our own
spiritual progress, but judging others is almost always a mistake
because we simply cant know someone elses motives. So why do
we do it? Why are we so quick to judge other people? Perhaps part
of the reason is simply that to get along with others it helps to be in
tune with what others are thinking and feeling. We cant be blind to
the fact that other people have feelings and motives for doing what
they do. But by judging others charitably, and assuming the best of
them rather than the worst, we
usually get along much better. In fact, sometimes the charitable
judgement becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. So if you are going
to be hasty in making judgements about others, at least be hasty
in making charitable judgements. All it takes is a bit of kindness,
empathy, and perhaps a smile to get others to act with kindness,
empathy and a smile of their own.
Christopher Simon, Metro News Service
873-4590
www.gundersonfh.com
Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you
judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it
will be measured to you.

Conant Automotive - Locally Owned & Celebrating Its 10th Year of Business!
This Summer has been a season of celebration at Conant Automotive. Believe it or not, it is celebrating its 10th year of being in business. For some it seems like yesterday. But for many others, Conant
has made itself such a Stoughton mainstay, that it seems like it helped
establish the community.
Family matters! Joe Conant will tell you that the time he spends on/
at his business is crazy! In fact, he figures he makes about $11.05
per hour, before taxes. However, Conant explains, We used to be
open Saturdays. But after losing two people in my life, it made me
think that having two solid days off for family time was more important than working. One of my first employees, Bob Martin always
wanted me to go to the drag races on Saturdays with him. He even
had it set for me to ride down the drag strip with him (if you have
been to a drag race, you know there is never a passenger, never) I
always told him, Next Time. Bob passed in 2010 and I never got
the chance to go on that ride. This and other reasons, are why we no
longer have Saturday hours.
Conant Automotive is a full service automotive shop. The knowledgeable staff will assist in vehicle maintenance and repairs. Not
only can they help with cars, but also with trucks, SUVs, and as
Conant states, Basically, anything that will fit into our shop. Drive
by sometime, and you might see anything from a collectors car to
even an RV in the lot. Then there is the question of quality of work
too. Conant adds, We offer a two year, 24,000 mile warranty on
all parts, and labor (except tires). Our products and parts that we
install are the best quality, best fit and best price. Conant Automotive also assists with sales of tires, brakes, lube, oil and filter, transmissions flush, tune-ups, exhaust work, and other services. Conant
wants you to think of these points before heading out of town. We
offer everything that the new vehicle dealers and big box stores do,
but at a better price. And here, you are treated like family, too. Did
you know that loaner vehicles are available, and if need be, the staff
can pick your vehicle up and drop it back off when finished? With
just a phone call, Joe and his staff can accommodate anyones hectic
schedule.

Joe Conant wanted to create an automotive shop from the ground up.
Honesty, integrity, and old fashioned customer service were things that
he looked for as a consumer. He wanted those same ideals to be part of
his own business. As he has said before, I dont want to be known as
the biggest shop in town, but I do want to be known as the best, and so
does my staff. I want to thank all of my customers past, present and
future for being there. I truly could not have done this without you!

Looking back over these past ten years, Joe Conant will tell you that
he has no regrets. I know that I have had some unhappy customers
and for that, I am truly sorry. But I have made many great relationships. I have a great wife and kids. We live simple. We are not flashy.
Our family goes to church and we truly appreciate our customers and
our wonderful community. I thank God every day that I can go to
work at a business that we started from scratch. We try to make a difference in peoples lives, while helping them the best we can.
also been a learning curve. Over the last ten years, I have learned a
lot. I have learned a lot about people and how to run a business. We
have done a lot of good things for our community, things that I dont
think would have happened If we did not take the chance in starting
our own business. Conant adds, I will always remember the day I
talked to Ted Keehn about buying his building to start our business.
Then I sat down with my wife and convinced her that this was going
be a good thing. That was hard. We had a new baby and starting from
scratch was scary but exciting. My thought was, how can I fail if I
work hard, use my head and treat my customers like they were family? You know something? It was 4 years before we would go on
a family vacation.

Conant Automotive has been talking about expanding for the last
six years. Conant states, I have told customers that it is going to
happen and we are in the process of making the big decision soon.
Our shop is small but we do a lot of work out of our little building.

Joe Conant knows that he has a good business going, great customers and great staff, and a great community. But one bad thing he will
tell you is, I have taken many people at their word, trusted them and
it has cost me. Some other businesses would say that I was stupid
for letting it happen but I am a man of my word. I try to teach my
kids the same thing. I expect that from people who ask me for help. I
know about hard times; more than people know. So if someone needs
help, I will try to help. But it seems that I get taken advantage of from
time to time. But most people do stand by their word.

Roughly 150 local youth from
nine to 18 year olds participated
in the Frank Kaminsky Basketball

Campers ran drills, got autographs and photographs, took part
in a Q&A session and some even
got to go one-on-one up against the
former Badger big man and Charlotte Hornets center.

Over the past decade, events coordinator Christina Dollhausen and Opera House director Bill Brehm have almost
singlehandedly transformed the venue from a little-used
performance space to one of the states busiest concert
halls. Dollhausen, whos booked shows, done on-stage introductions and a plethora of other tasks, has resigned to have
time with her family.

The idea is to have a team
