FALL FUN IS BACK

Public Art Anniversary

I'm especially excited to see the return of the 52nd Blue Springs Fall Fun Festival and Parade hosted by the Blue Springs Chamber of Commerce. This long-standing community tradition was sorely missed last year and it's return signifies that we are, and will continue to be, #BlueSpringsStrong.

And speaking of events, I'm also looking forward to the full return of the Mayor's Tree Lighting event at City Hall this holiday season. Last year was an abbreviated event due to COVID restrictions, but I'm hoping we'll be able to hold the full event – complete with a visit from the Big Guy himself, Mr. Claus – on November 30.

And despite the challenges of the pandemic in 2020, the 2020 Census report is in and Blue Springs stands as the 10th largest city in the State of Missouri and the eighth largest in the Greater Kansas City Metropolitan Area, boasting a population of 58, 603.

Blue Springs Voters Make Parks A Priority For Years To Come On April 6, 2021, Blue Springs voters overwhelmingly approved the indefinite renewal of the Parks 1/2-cent sales tax. Since it's inception in 2017, the City of Blue Springs has seen a myriad of parks improvements and renovations including playgrounds at Young Park, Ward Park and Rotary Park and the new splashpad and playground at Burrus Old Mill, to name a few.

The renewal of the parks sales tax was an integral part of the City’s ability to continue the improvement of our park facilities, parkland development and facility improvements for years to come.

With the approved renewal, the City will continue updating many of our existing parks and facilities.

More than $10 million will be reinvested to improve neighborhood parks such as playgrounds, athletic

fields, shelters, restrooms and more by end of 2025.

Trail Improvements to include completion of trail loop at Grounds Park and more.

After 2025, approximately $1.45 million will be allocated each year to parks maintenance and improvements.

AQUATICS FACILITY

Over the past few years, Blue Springs Parks and Recreation has been working to find ways to replace the Centennial Pool-plex with a modern indoor/ outdoor aquatics facility. The renewal of the Parks Sales Tax allows for the construction of a new modern facility replacing the 40-year-old Centennial Poolplex, now operated by the Blue Springs School District.

SOUTHWEST PARK

With a vision to provide our residents in southern Blue Springs with the same quality park amenities the rest of the City experiences, funds from the renewal of the parks sales tax will include the development of Southwest Park located west of 7 Highway and north of Wyatt Road. The City anticipates the design of this project will begin in 2025 with construction following.

Raking or blowing leaves into the street can create traffic hazards, such as slippery or unsafe obstructions for traffic – especially motorcycles and bicycles – and environmental hazards, such as carrying road contaminants downstream through the storm drain and eventually into our drinking supply, rivers, and lakes. These clogged catch basin can create neighborhood flooding issues. According to City Code, residents are required to properly dispose of their yard waste. The easiest way to keep our neighborhoods clean, people safe, and protect our waterways is to clean up and properly dispose of your yard waste.

”

Committee Chairman. “As we all know, the past year was, and continues to be, trying in so many ways. What we have learned is how to pivot and move forward. For example, due to the sudden passing of the owner of our longtime carnival, we are unable to have them this year. Instead, we are excited to offer a Fun Zone area full of inflatables for all ages and games galore! And that is the spirit of this festival that has been in Blue Springs for over 50 years. Tradition and celebrating community are what the festival is all about. We are #BLUESPRINGSSTRONG!” Throughout the Fall Fun Festival weekend all Jackson County recommendations & guidelines will be followed to prevent the spread of Covid-19.

20+1 YEARS OF PUBLIC ART IN BLUE SPRINGS The Blue Springs Public Art Commission is celebrating it's 21st anniversary this year. On September 6, 2000, Mayor Greg Grounds and the City Council unanimously voted to establish the Commission with the mandate to enhance the aesthetic appearance of the community and make Blue Springs a more desirable place to live, work and locate a business. Public art helps formulate a unique identity of our City through visual appeal, ownership of valuable assets, and civic pride.

Of the nearly 90 artworks that have been displayed through temporary exhibits and commissions, 60 pieces have been purchased by citizens, organizations, or businesses for permanent display.

Plans were underway in 2020 to create and publish a book about the work of the Public Art Commission featuring photographs of the artworks that citizens and visitors have enjoyed over the last twenty years. The pandemic delayed the publication date, but this year, the Public Art Commission will publish “20 + 1 Years of Public Art in Blue Springs, Missouri.” The book will be available for purchase in late fall 2021 so citizens and friends of art can enjoy reviewing the work of the many professional artists who shared their talent and to admire the work of art students in our schools. The book will also serve as a fundraiser to help support the public art program.

The Blue Springs Public Art Commission is grateful for community support of its mission to contribute to the cultural, social and economic well-being of our City.

BLUE SPRINGS CELEBRATES THE MISSOURI BICENTENNIAL THROUGH ART In recognition of twenty years of public art programming in Blue Springs and to celebrate the Missouri Bicentennial, the City of Blue Springs has partnered with three organizations to create a large mosaic artwork featuring two state symbols, the Missouri Bluebird on a Dogwood Tree branch.

The design for the mosaic artwork was created

by Lawrence Randall, retired Blue Springs art teacher and member of the Blue Springs Public Art Commission. Members of the Blue Springs Public Art Commission, Blue Springs Art League, and Blue 8

Springs Daughters of the American Revolution are assisting in the project. The artwork is being created under the direction of Rebecca Hite, artist and owner of Creative Art Glass Studio in Oak Grove, MO. Upon completion, the mosaic will be permanently installed for public viewing in Vesper Hall Senior Center. A dedication to celebrate having a mosaic artwork that honors 20 years of public art in Blue Springs, the Missouri Bicentennial, and our state’s history is being planned. The dedication will be open for public attendance.

[REDEVELOPMENT[ Long-Time Pediatric Office Re-Imagines Empty Restaurant Space Ever since Golden Corral at 1203 SW State Rt 7 in Blue Springs closed it's doors several years ago, residents have been wondering what will take it's place. That question has finally been answered thanks to Cockerell McIntosh Pediatrics, which opened its office doors in the newly renovated space in the Summer of 2021. And while the outside improvements certainly improve the curb appeal, it's the inside of the office that makes this redevelopment project special. Dr. Charles Cockerell wanted the interior of his newest office to be whimsical.

As soon as they step through the doors, patients and their parents are immediately transported into an enchanted forest. Every single inch of the waiting room walls are

covered in a mural depicting forest scenes. There are two indoor play areas modeled to look like a cave and a tree house respectively– Dr. Cockerell designed the play areas himself building small dioramas with cardboard and packing tape to show

his architect. Cockerell McIntosh Pediatrics has been a part of the Eastern Jackson County community for decades, established in 1950 as his father's practice. He and his sister, Dr. Michele McIntosh, took over in 1988.

Whataburger hosts ground-breaking, begins demolition at Winsteads site The old Winsteads building came down in late July to make way for Whataburger Blue Springs, anticipated to open in late 2021. To accommodate the new restaurant and anticipated traffic, improvements will be made to the intersection on 7 Hwy and the Outer Road.

[COVID-19 [ What is the Delta Variant and how can I keep my family protected?

For many, this summer has marked a return to normal. But COVID-19 is still circulating in the United States, and a new strain — largely impacting unvaccinated people — is gaining ground. Here’s what you need to know about it:

THE DELTA VARIANT IS MORE CONTAGIOUS THAN OTHER COVID-19 STRAINS The Delta variant is a highly contagious mutation of SARS-CoV-2 and experts have found it to be twice as contagious as the original strain. Recent estimates from the CDC show the Delta variant now accounts for more than 51% of COVID-19 cases in the United States, making it the dominant variant. Last month it was classified as a “variant of concern” by the CDC. The CDC defines “variants of concern” as having increased transmissibility, increased disease severity, or reduced effectiveness of treatments or vaccines.

UNVACCINATED PEOPLE ARE MOST AT RISK In May, the Cleveland Clinic reported that 99 percent of new cases and COVID-19-related hospitalizations were people who were not fully vaccinated. This is especially important as patients infected with the Delta variant are twice as likely to be hospitalized.

In a local news article, Mark Steele—chief clinical officer of Truman Medical Centers, University Health—reported that all of their current hospitalized COVID-19 patients are not vaccinated against COVID-19. Additionally, COVID-19 cases are spiking in southwest and northern Missouri, where vaccination rates are low.

COVID-19 VACCINES PROVIDE STRONG PROTECTION AGAINST DELTA After two doses, the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine is 80 10

2021 FALL • WWW.BLUESPRINGSGOV.COM

percent effective at preventing infection, 88 percent effective at preventing symptomatic disease, and 96 percent effective at preventing hospitalization from the delta variant. The Moderna vaccine uses the same technology as Pfizer and has shown similar rates of overall effectiveness.

The single-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine generates a strong antibody response against the Delta variant and other prevalent COVID-19 variants.

DELTA WON’T BE THE LAST VARIANT TO ARISE Continued transmission of COVID-19 and spread throughout the community drastically increases its chances of a mutation similar to the delta variant. If we break the cycle of transmission and decrease the number of infections in a community we can curb new variants from forming. Vaccination helps both to prevent COVID-19 infection and to keep new variants from developing.

BE VIGILANT, NOT ALARMED While the delta variant is concerning, there are still many ways community members can protect themselves.

Get vaccinated against COVID-19 if you haven’t already. COVID-19 vaccination offers the best protection against all COVID-19 variants. Visit jacohd. org/events to find local vaccination clinics.

If you’re due for your second dose, make a plan to receive it as soon as possible. Getting both doses maximizes your protection against all COVID-19 variants.

If you’re not fully vaccinated, continue wearing a mask and social distancing.

Whether you’ve been vaccinated or not, get tested

UTILITY AND RENT ASSISTANCE The Blue Springs Community Services League is administering Federal Rent Assistance funds to households behind in their rent or utilities.

This program is part of the stimulus package passed by the United States Congress in December 2020 to help communities and families affected by the COVID-19 pandemic that includes relief for renters.

for COVID-19 if you’re feeling sick. Find testing opportunities at jacohd.org/events.

Stay up-to-date on case rates in your community.

View Eastern Jackson County COVID-19 data here.

If you have any questions about COVID-19, the COVID-19 vaccine, or the delta variant, reach out to your local health department or your primary care provider.

The World Health Organization — citing the rise of Delta, the dearth of vaccines, and high rates of community transmission in many parts of the world — has encouraged fully vaccinated people to continue wearing masks.

- Jackson County Health Department

Residents in Jackson County, Missouri outside of Kansas City, Missouri behind in rent and/or utility payments, due to the impact of COVID-19 may be eligible for assistance through this program.

Applicants will need several documents to start their application and should thoroughly review the documents listed here: www.jacksoncountyerap. org/applicationchecklist This opportunity is only for residents of Jackson County outside of Kansas City, MO. At this time, only first-time recipients will be considered.

For more information about the program or eligibility requirements, go to https://www.jacksoncountyerap.org

JACKSON COUNTY REQUIRES FACEMASKS IN PUBLIC PLACES Per the Jackson County, Missouri Health Order dated August 9, 2021, face masks are now required in all indoor public places.

The health order aligns with recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Jackson County Health Department and is supported by Jackson County public school district superintendents and the region’s Chief Medical Officers. The public health order is in response to the rising number of COVID-19 infections and hospitalizations due, in part, to the highly-contagious Delta variant and our region’s low vaccination rates.

According to a new state law, the County Executive and Health Director’s authority to issue public health orders is now limited to 30 days. Any extension of this order beyond 30 days will require the support of a majority of the Jackson County Legislature.
