Salvos 12/29/15
In this edition:
*Happy New Year!
*No Salvos Next Week!
*Salvos Salutes!
*Did You Know?
*Happy New Year!
Happy
New Year to all Salvos readers! I hope you and your loved ones enjoy a
wonderful 2016!
*No Salvos Next Week!
There
will be no Salvos next week, as I am pursuing a life long dream – watching the
Hawkeyes play in the Rose Bowl! I simply cannot tell you how excited I am! Pasadena
or bust!
Salvos will resume with an edition dated 1-12-16, which should
arrive in your inboxes a few days before that date.
*Salvos Salutes!
2015 is coming to a close, and it is time for honoring a few
select Johnson County residents with that most treasured of honors, the Salvos
Salute. A few observations:
* This is the tenth annual set of awards, and there are always
more people who deserve awards than there are awards to give. We live in a
great County!
* The focus is on Johnson County. It is certainly worth noting the
daily heroism of someone like our firefighters, police,
and paramedics. There are
also examples that garner international attention. But we have everyday heroes
right here in Johnson County that deserve a shout out.
* There are some people out there that could win every year. I am
trying to honor different folks, but repeat winners are not out of the
question.
* Salvos Salutes do not have specific criteria, but you can bet
that in general, most of the winners are courageous, advocate for peace and
justice, have good ideas, speak truth to power, avoid hypocrisy, and look out
for the less fortunate.
Without
further adieu, your 2015 Salvos Salutes go to:
Kirk Ferentz: The Salute is not about the 12-0 start or the Rose Bowl birth. It is
about the willingness to take an honest look at what he is doing, listen to his
critics, and make positive changes. That is a great example from which we can
all learn.
Tom Jacobs: After several decades as a respected labor leader, Tom decided to
retire. He should have gotten a Salvos Salute at that time. Watching him serve
as a husband, father, grandfather, and friend shows he deserves a Salute for
those roles, too. What a kind, generous, thoughtful, caring man! I am proud to
call Tom a friend!
John Kenyon: It was fantastic that Iowa City received the City of Literature
designation from UNESCO in 2008. But there was no blueprint (and no funding)
that came with the designation. It has been up to John to navigate the egos and
silos that made this effort a challenge. And navigate he has! The City of
Literature organization is strong and growing stronger under John’s capable
leadership.
Lisa Metzler: This Solon woman dutifully works every day to ensure that foster and
adoptive children and foster and adoptive families have what they need. Then
she goes home from work and serves as a foster and adoptive parent herself! Do
not kid yourself - Lisa is a true hero!
Andre Perry: The Englert Theatre has become one of the most important cultural and
civic resources in all of Johnson County. The building itself is beautiful, but
the building did not do that. Andre Perry did. If this young man comes to you
with an idea, do yourself a favor and tell him yes!
Dave Wehde: We are aware of the award winning writers and champion wrestlers in
our midst. But did you know that Johnson County Conservation is home to
probably the top Naturalist in the business? Dave Wehde has been serving the
people of Johnson County a long time, and yes, he really is that good! Dave’s
role will only grow (pun intended!) as we battle the many invasive species that
threaten our landscape.
Chris Henze: Should we really recognize not one but TWO Johnson County employees
who deal with weeds? Actually, yes we should! Johnson County won the award for
having the top Integrated Roadside Vegetation Management program in the whole
country! This was the result of years of fighting, years of volunteering, and
years of advocacy on the part of many people. But Chris is the guy who has
pulled it all together and made it all work.
Jesse Case: Johnson County became the first county in Iowa to adopt a Community
ID program. Then Johnson County became the first county in Iowa to raise the
minimum wage. If you want to find a single person most responsible for these
accomplishments, look no farther than Iowa City Federation of Labor President
Jesse Case. Neither of those things happens without Jesse’s leadership –
period.
Robin Clark-Bennett: Jesse Case gets the credit for the above
accomplishments, as he should. But they might not have happened without the
tireless and unsung efforts of Robin Clark-Bennett. Speaking Spanish to low
wage workers, advocating with policy makers, convincing clergy that our fights
were just… Robin was everywhere, doing the dirty work that led to the passage
of these important issues.
Jean Jordison: Throughout our community, people donate time, talent, and treasure.
Some people make a show of it; others do so quietly. One of the quiet heroes is
Jean Jordison. She has given so much to a couple local low-income immigrant
families that it boggles the mind. But that is just the start – her giving is felt
throughout the community. If everyone contributed the way Jean does… well, I
cannot even imagine. Her contributions are truly extraordinary!
Bill Greazel: The Johnson County Assessor’s Office is the best in the state, bar
none. That is borne out by every possible statistical measure. And it has been
that way for decades. Why? Because (now retired) Johnson County Assessor Bill
Greazel was there. Between technological advances and good old-fashioned hard
work, Bill made the Johnson County Assessor’s Office the envy of all others.
And that is good for you! It means valuations are fair and accurate.
LaTasha DeLoach: The Salute was coming for her work as Johnson County’s
Disproportionate Minority Contact Coordinator, a role in which she fights for a
more just world for people of color. Then LaTasha went out and won a seat on
the ICCSD Board of Directors, bringing an important voice to a growing and
diversifying district. She will have to split the Salvos Salute for her work at
both her paid and unpaid jobs!
Mike Ryan:
Did you follow the minimum wage discussions in Tiffin? The debate there was
more robust than in any other city in Johnson County. Throughout that debate,
one person emerged as a vocal champion for low wage workers – Councilor Mike
Ryan. The fire Mike demonstrated while fighting for a higher minimum wage was
really exceptional. The people of Tiffin are lucky to have such a passionate
public servant!
Teachers:
They all get a Salute. Every one of them. Not only have they done their typical
great work – arguably our most important work – they have done so while under
attack from the Branstad Administration. Teachers, you deserve so much better.
Hang in there, and keep up the great work!
Congratulations
to all our winners! I look forward to all the great things you’ll accomplish in
2016!

In this edition:
*Merry Christmas!
*Congratulations, Lisa!
*Holiday Office Schedule
*Serving As Chair
*Salvos Salutes Next Week!
*Hawkeye Football
*Did You Know?
*Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to those of you who
celebrate it. I hope you all have a safe and happy holiday!
*Congratulations, Lisa!
The
Johnson County Democratic Party has selected its nominee for the January 19
Special Supervisor Election.
Lisa
Green Douglass of rural North Liberty won the nomination at a special
Democratic Party County Convention on December 16. Green Douglass has been
involved in Democratic Party politics for a long time, serving 14 years on the
Party’s Central Committee. Professionally, Lisa is a former Spanish professor who
now teaches cultural competency to public safety workers, such as law
enforcement, EMT, jails, etc. Lisa is the mother of five children, including
triplets! As a result, she has been very involved as a volunteer in the Clear
Creek Amana School District. Lisa has also volunteered as an interpreter at the
Center for Worker Justice.
I
have known Lisa for quite some time; as a matter of fact, she received a Salvos
Salute way back in 2006! At the time, Lisa was serving as Chair of the Clear
Creek Amana drive toward a new high school, and the State of Iowa was cutting
Johnson County a deal on local option sales taxes for schools. Lisa got the
Salvos Salute for her efforts to make the LOST less regressive.
That
is the type of effort I really respect… it is easy to be against something. It
is much more difficult to attempt to negotiate a solution that makes things
better. Lisa has proven that she is willing to roll up her sleeves and work
toward a solution.
I
wholeheartedly endorse Lisa Green Douglass for the office of Johnson County
Supervisor! I hope she will have your support, too!
*Holiday Office Schedule
A
quick note on the Johnson County schedule for the holidays – administrative
offices will be open on Thursday, December 24 (Christmas Eve), but then closed
on Friday the 25th (Christmas).
Offices
will be open on Thursday, December 31 (New Year’s Eve), closed Friday, January
1st (New Year’s Day), and open again on Monday, January 4th.
As
always, the Sheriff’s Office, 911 dispatch, Medical Examiner’s Office, and
Ambulance service will be running 24/7/365.
*Serving As Chair
The Johnson County Board of Supervisors has a tradition of
rotating the position of Board Chair. Each year, a different member of the
Board takes over at the first meeting of the year.
Though
it is basically a formality, the Board still votes to select its leader. There
have been a couple notable instances when the “rotation” did not happen. Dick
Myers and Joe Bolkcom, who both went on to serve notable careers in higher
office, were both passed over by their peers.
In
some counties, the Chair rotates amongst the political party in charge. In Polk
County, for example, the three Democrats rotate the role of Chair, effectively
shutting out the GOP. In Muscatine County, the GOP used to do the same thing to
Democratic Supervisors. In other counties, one individual has held the role of
Chair for decades. So there is no set method other than holding the election.
Personally,
I do not see any reason to shut anyone out. While it can get cumbersome, we
have always operated on the premise that three members (a majority) of the
Board can put anything they wish on the agenda, even over the objection of the
Chair.
Additionally,
individual Board members can impact the agenda without being Chair. I am proud
of the fact that at my suggestion, agendas were changed to allow public
discussion at both the beginning and end of each meeting. When I first started,
public discussion was only at the end of the agenda. So if you showed up for a
5:30 PM meeting, you might not get to raise your issue until 9 PM. That was not
friendly toward the public. But when I brought it up, others were happy to
oblige.
To
me, the biggest job of the Chair is ensuring that meetings run smoothly. The
public deserves efficiency and effectiveness. A well-run meeting can also save
hours of staff time – and that means money!
I
am in line to serve as the Chair for 2016. I am looking forward to serving in
that capacity, and I am happy to take your suggestions for improving Board
meetings.
*Salvos Salutes Next Week!
We live in a GREAT county! Why? Because of the great people that
live here! Unfortunately, we rarely do enough to acknowledge these wonderful
people and the wonderful things they do.
That
is why I really look forward to Salvos Salutes. It provides an opportunity to
mention just a few of these cool people and the good things they do. I hope you
look forward to it as well!
*Hawkeye Football
As
you may know, I am a huge Hawkeye fan. I try not to write much about it,
however, since you can find plenty of things written about Hawkeye athletics.
I
am going to make an exception today, however, as I think there is a lot we can
learn from this record-setting Hawkeye football season.
I
do not know Coach Ferentz, though I do know his wife Mary. From the perspective
of a big fan who admittedly does not know him personally, he has always struck
me as a very decent, honest, stand-up guy. Not flashy, no bragging, no big ego.
He has always seemed like the kind of coach you would want your son to have.
Despite
all those positive traits, the team’s struggles in 2014 wore on me and many
other Hawkeye fans. While I never wanted to see Coach Ferentz fired, I felt as
though the Hawks really needed to change some things.
And
you know what? Coach Ferentz did just that! He changed several things!
Why
is that such a big deal? Because when push comes to shove, we rarely look at
ourselves critically. Even when we do look at ourselves critically, we are very
unlikely to make changes.
I
think this is even more rare among people who have risen to a certain echelon
or experienced a certain level of success. We have a tendency to get insular,
quit listening, and decide we know best.
I
am very impressed by the willingness of Coach Ferentz to continue to listen and
learn. I am going to try to use him as an example, and see where I can change
things for the better.
*DID YOU KNOW?
Iowa’s 16-13 loss to Michigan State was the first game all season in
which Iowa trailed in the fourth quarter!

Salvos 12/15/15
In this edition:
*Website Correction
*Election Versus Appointment
*Bernie Sanders
*Did You Know?
*Website Correction
I
accidentally gave the wrong website address last week when I announced that I
would seek reelection. The correct address is Sullivanforsupervisor.org. I
apologize for any confusion.
So,
Sullivanforsupervisor.org. Please check it out!
*Election Versus Appointment
Remember
when I noted in a previous Salvos that the Auditor, Treasurer, and Recorder
were going to be criticized no matter what decision they made regarding the
open Supervisor seat? Unfortunately, I was right!
Let’s
look at some of this criticism, because it really is silly.
Some
are complaining that the decision to hold an election is somehow an “inside
job” that will allow the local Democratic Party to anoint a new Supervisor. That
is ridiculous! If it were true, how did we end up with Supervisor John
Etheredge?
It
is funny, because I look back at the last special convention the local
Democratic Party held. Party Chair Terry Dahms was well liked, and made it
known he was interested, yet he was challenged by two other candidates (Dawn
Suter and Mike Carberry) who combined to get 45% of the vote. Dahms was then
defeated by Etheredge in the special election. Folks – that ain’t exactly how
they do it in North Korea!
The
current group of partisan elected officials were all over the map in terms of
their previous service to the Democratic Party. Representative Mascher,
Supervisor Carberry, and myself were all County Party Chairs. I suppose it does
not get any more “insider” than that. While registered Democrats, Senator
Kinney, Representative Lensing, and Supervisor Harney were not very involved in
Democratic Party activities until seeking election. Heck, Supervisor Rettig
worked for the GOP not that long ago! So as you can see, there is no single
path to elected office in the local Democratic Party.
The idea that certain people are somehow hand picked is crazy! The
local Democratic Party is a VERY big tent – about 40,000 registered voters –
who most certainly DO NOT just do as they are told. We vote, and it takes a lot
of votes to win a nomination!
The
critics think an election is somehow an “inside job.” In what universe is an
election – where any eligible candidate can participate – more “insider” than
an appointment? You would really prefer to have 3 people choose for you? How
democratic is that?
There
is a very credible No Party candidate who has announced he is running. Had they
appointed, he couldn’t even run!
I
think this is just an opportunity for angry people to criticize local elected
officials and the local Democratic Party. Both deserve better. Taylor Swift
said it best: Haters gonna hate.
*Bernie Sanders
This
Salvos is dated December 15, 2015. The Iowa Caucuses are on February 1, 2016.
That is just six weeks! Guess it is time to begin making a case for Bernie
Sanders!
As
you may know, I have been a supporter of Bernie Sanders for a long time. As a
matter of fact, I am told that I was the first elected official in the whole
country to endorse the Senator! (I heard that from the Sanders Campaign, and no
one has challenged it.)
I
have had the opportunity to speak with him privately. I convinced his staff
that he should attend the 2014 Johnson County Democratic Party Fall BBQ. (He attended
in 2015 as well.) So I feel very comfortable talking about why I support
Bernie.
It
is true that on many important issues, there is little difference between
Sanders and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. They actually agree on
many things. In my opinion, both would be far superior to any of the candidates
put forth by the Republican Party.
That
said, there are 5 key issues that I feel make the case for Bernie Sanders.
These are topics that are critical to the future of the US and the world. And
they are topics that Sanders addresses better than Clinton.
1.)
Income inequality: If we do not address this issue, the US economy is certain
to collapse. When greed and low regulation capitalism meet, the economy loses.
We desperately need to create some demand in our economy, and we cannot do that
in a country where the majority of the people are poor.
But
those are just the economic arguments. The more important arguments are moral.
How can we sit back and allow so many of our fellow citizens to struggle so
deeply?
Other
candidates may give this lip service, but only Bernie Sanders has an actual
plan for meaningfully addressing income inequality.
2.) Holding Wall Street Accountable: We must restore Glass
Stegall, and put an end to banks speculating with our money. Wealthy Wall
Street financiers pay the lowest tax rates in the country, when they need to
pay the highest. Loopholes must be closed. When people break the law, they need
to go to jail. Most importantly, we need to break up the big banks. If they are
too big to fail, they are too big to exist.
So – whom do you trust to follow through on this? Candidates who
collect millions in campaign contributions from these same bad actors, or the
man they hate - Bernie Sanders?
3.)
Peace: My oldest daughter just turned 24. The United States has been bombing
people literally her whole life. Has any of it made us any safer? I would argue
it has all made us less safe.
Look
at the voting records. Secretary Clinton has always felt the need to show she
is tough, so she always chooses the hawkish path. Senator Sanders has routinely
made the tougher, less politically popular votes to avoid military conflict.
Wars
cost us thousands of lives and trillions of dollars. They leave our soldiers
injured and leave foreign populations hating America. War is no good. And if
you want to avoid needless wars, you need to vote Sanders.
4.)
Climate Change: In 100 years, future generations will look back upon us and see
complete moral failure. The way we look at witch burners and slave owners? That
is how future generations will see us.
Why?
Because we knew climate change was real, knew it was manmade, and did nothing
to stop it. We are long past half measures. We need serious government
intervention on behalf of our environment before it is too late. Bernie gets
this.
5.)
Half Measures: Bernie Sanders is honest, even when it hurts him politically.
There are no tortured explanations; he has no need to explain how his position
has evolved. He does not call for a half measure when he knows we need to
change.
Hillary Clinton has changed
her position on TPP, gay marriage, Keystone XL, mass incarceration, gun
control, the Iraq War, and several other issues. Your issue may be next! And
that does not include all the issues where a half measure may be taken when
more is required.
These
are not the only issues in this campaign. But they are huge issues in this
campaign. These issues REALLY matter! If you care about these issues, you really
need to consider caucusing for Bernie Sanders!

Sullivan’s
Salvos 12/8/15
In this edition:
*Sullivan For Supervisor!
*Replacing Supervisor Neuzil
*Hypocrisy On Trump
*Did You Know?
*Sullivan For Supervisor!
With
a couple of individuals recently announcing campaigns for Supervisor, I thought
it was time for me to make my intentions known. Below is an announcement from
the Sullivan for Supervisor campaign:
IOWA CITY – Johnson County
Supervisor Rod Sullivan announced today that he will seek reelection.
Sullivan pointed to
several accomplishments during his time in office. Since Sullivan joined the
Board, Johnson County has:
·
Successfully
dealt with flood response and recovery;
·
Passed an
ordinance raising the minimum wage, the first county in Iowa to do so;
·
Passed the
Community ID program, the first county in Iowa to do so;
·
Passed a Human
Rights Ordinance, the first county in Iowa to do so;
·
Passed a
Sensitive Areas Ordinance, the first county in Iowa to do so;
·
Signed on to
Cool Counties, the first county in Iowa to do so;
·
Created a
Livable Community for Seniors, the first county in Iowa to do so;
·
Created a
Trails Committee and for the first time put trails in the budget;
·
Created a
Local Foods Policy Council;
·
Instituted a
highly successful Earned Income Tax Credit program;
·
Established a
Buy Local policy;
·
Added rural
tornado sirens;
·
Passed
stormwater management, wind energy, and downcast lighting ordinances;
·
Started 1105
Project with gift of old Public Health building;
·
Allowed FEMA
to pay to restore the Sutliff Bridge;
·
Won an “A” in
local government transparency from Sunshine Institute;
·
Led the
transition to a Regional system of Mental Health Care.
Sullivan, 49, grew up on a
Heritage farm just east of Sutliff. He lives in Iowa City with his wife,
Melissa Fath, who does cancer research at the UI. They have 3 children - Rachel,
Jordan, and BJ, and have served as Foster Parents to 40+ additional children.
Sullivan has been involved
with numerous organizations, including AFT Local 716; Affordable Homes
Coalition; Coalition for Racial Justice; St. Andrew Presbyterian Church; Iowa
Foster & Adoptive Parents; United Way; Community Foundation of Johnson County;
and volunteering in Haiti.
“It has been a pleasure
and a privilege serving as a Johnson County Supervisor,” Sullivan said. “We
have accomplished some good things, but we can do so much more. I want to
continue to push Johnson County to be the best it can be.”
Sullivan says his goals
for Johnson County include: working with cities for sensible TIF usage;
improving rural housing conditions; and increased support for Human Services.
*Replacing Supervisor Neuzil
As you know, Johnson County Supervisor Terrence Neuzil recently
took a job as the County Administrator in Kalamazoo County, Michigan. Terrence
will be leaving Johnson County December 20, and starting in Kalamazoo on
December 21.
Auditor Travis Weipert, Recorder Kim Painter, and Treasurer Tom
Kriz met on December 2nd to choose one of two options: schedule a
special election or appoint a replacement.
As I noted in a previous edition of Salvos, this group has done a
bit of each over the years. When Lorada Cilek died in office, her son Mike was
appointed to finish out her term. After Joe Bolkcom left for the State Senate,
Carol Thompson was appointed. After Larry Meyers died in office, Janelle Rettig
was appointed. After Sally Stutsman left for the State Legislature, a special
election was called.
Again, these three elected officials are put in a very difficult
position. If they choose an election, they are wasting tax dollars on an
unnecessary election. If they choose to appoint, they are playing favorites or
rewarding political buddies. In other words, they cannot win.
The
group met on Wednesday, and by a 2-1 margin, voted to hold a special election. Weipert
and Painter voted for the election; Kriz voted to appoint. Weipert selected the
election date of Tuesday, January 19, 2016 after meeting with staff that
afternoon.
The
election winner will serve through December 31, 2016. The same seat will also
be on the ballot in the June 7 primary and November 8 general election for a
full four-year term.
Monday,
December 28 at 5 PM is the filing deadline for candidates. (Iowa Code sets the
deadline as 25 days before election, but that falls on Christmas Day so the
deadline moves to the next business day.) The two full status political
parties, Democrats and Republicans, may nominate a candidate by holding a
special convention of delegates elected at the 2014 caucuses. Other
organizations and independent candidates may file by petition with 250
signatures.
The
Democratic Party Convention will be Wednesday, December 16 at 6:30 PM
(registration begins at 5:30) at the Coralville Public Library. I have not
heard anything from the local GOP.
Let
the games begin!
*Hypocrisy On Trump
Jeb
Bush says Donald Trump “has no clue what he is talking about.” Marco Rubio has
criticized Trump’s bankruptcies. Chris Christie has accused Trump of lying
about 9/11. John Kasich has said Trump is not “worthy” of the Presidency. Carly
Fiorina has criticized Trump’s attitude toward women. Ted Cruz says Trump “is
not gonna be the nominee.” Lindsey Graham has called Trump “clueless”, “uninformed”,
and “whiny”. Rick Santorum has criticized Trump for “calling people names”.
When
asked directly, most of these other candidates will tell you that Donald Trump
is not fit to be President of the United States. But you know what? If he wins
the nomination, each one of them will fall in line. There is not a single one
who actually believes in Trump. But if needed, they will all support him in the
end.
Do
they really believe Trump is MORE qualified than Clinton or Sanders? I doubt
it. But they will not be honest about it. It is called hypocrisy.
*DID YOU KNOW?
There were Special Elections for the office of County Supervisor in 1994
(won by Don Sehr), 2010 (won by Janelle Rettig), and 2014 (won by John
Etheredge).
