2014 Our Town

Welcome to OUR TOWN – TITLE TOWN!

Supplement to The Post & Maryville Daily Forum • TUESDAY, AUGUST 26, 2014

Page 2 - 2014 Our Town, Supplement to The Post & Maryville Daily Forum, Tuesday, August 26, 2014

Our town is ‘Title Town’ and so much more There’s no questioning it - no denying it - no trying to hide it, Maryville is known for football.

It doesn’t seem to matter where you go - out of town, out of state - if you are wearing anything that indicates that you’re from Maryville, someone will ask about the Maryville Spoofhounds and/or the Northwest Missouri State University Bearcats and their prospects for the upcoming season.

The cover of this year’s issue of Our Town features the moniker “Title Town,” for good reason. This is a nickname which has been proudly adopted by this community now that the high school football team went through 2013 undefeated with a state championship and the university team completed it’s 2013 season with a 15-0 record and a national championship. Oh, by the way, that’s not the first time

those two teams achieved those feats in the same year. Not to mention, from 7th grade on up, football teams in this town completed their 2013 campaigns with a combined 60 wins and exactly zero losses. Not bad.

All that said, Maryville is much more than just football.

The ‘Ville, as it is affectionately referred to by locals, is known not just for the university football team, but also for the university itself. Northwest Missouri State University has been recognized far and wide for academics, as well as athletics and has received international acclaim for its innovation in clean energy and for equipping each of its students with their own laptop computer as part of their tuition.

If you’ve spent any time in our town, you’ve already noticed that we have no shortage of development taking place.

Phil Cobb Editor & Publisher Maryville Daily Forum The City of Maryville and the Missouri Department of Transportation have been busy resurfacing and reconstructing many of the streets in and around town, making for smoother and less congested transportation.

You’ll also notice as you navigate The ‘Ville that an extensive

walking and hiking trail continues to take shape as part of a “Safe Routes to School” effort undertaken by the City, assisted by state grant funding.

Retail development has begun to appear on the Highway 71 bypass which extends around the east and north sides of our city.

A Casey’s General Store prototype, among other retail ventures has been promised for the intersection of the bypass and First Street at the eastern entrance to town.

Then further east, about five miles, is the (somewhat) hidden treasure of this community — Mozingo Lake Recreation Park.

You’ll read more about Mozingo in the pages of this publication, but one of the most recent — and what I feel could be the most significant development to date — is the Tom Watson Junior Golf Course which is currently under

construction.

Brought about by the creative thinking of local entrepreneurial minds and funded almost entirely by private donations, the ninehole beginner course has been designed to be more inviting and forgiving than its parent course — Mozingo Lake Golf Course, which is an 18-hole championship course, situated around the east thumb of Mozingo Lake.

In addition to being a valuable teaching tool for area youth and beginning golfers, the Watson course, featuring a huge putting and chipping practice green is sure to be a drawing card for all sorts of youth golfing events.

Add this to the many things for which Maryville is known.

Hopefully, if you’re new to town or even if you are only considering a move here, you’ll soon know our town as your town. Welcome!

City government leads the way for Maryville

The city of Maryville, headquartered at the Maryville City Hall, 415 N. Market St., operates under a council-city manager form of government.

A five-member city council presides over the city government and meets on the second and fourth Mondays of each month in the City Hall Council Chambers.

Under Maryville’s form of government, the council members are elected to three-year terms on a rotating basis.

The council then selects a mayor, who presides over meetings. Renee Riedel currently serves as mayor. Other members of the council are Jeff Funston, who serves mayor pro-tem; Tim Shipley, Rachael Martin and Jerry Riggs.

By law, the majority of city business requiring council approval must be presented to the council during open public meetings.

City Manager Greg McDanel is responsible for managing the day-to-day operations of the city. In that capacity, he is responsible for the enforcement of all policies, laws, and ordinances; coor-

dination of all municipal programs and services; makes recommendations to the mayor and city council as appropriate concerning the operation, affairs and future needs of the city; participates in city council meetings without voting, and keeps the council members advised on the operation, finances and needs of the city. The city manager is appointed by the city council and serves at its pleasure.

Ryan Heiland serves as the assistant city manager.

The annual Maryville budget for the 2015 fiscal year totals more than $25 million as the city supports many projects and services through its various departments.

Major services provided by the city include water and sewer treatment and distribution, street maintenance and construction, code enforcement and building inspections, operation of a regional solid waste transfer station and the municipal airport.

The Maryville Department of Public Works provides supervision of these ac-

tivities.

PeoplesService is a private operations company which supervises both the city’s water and wastewater treatment

facilities.

The public works department is located in the basement of city hall. The See Government, Page 21

Maryville’s square is hub of county government

The hub of government in Nodaway County is located diagonally northeast across the intersection of Market and Fourth streets from the Nodaway County Courthouse on Maryville’s Downtown Square and is centered in the Nodaway County Administrative Center.

The three-story building has become the center of county business and will increase in that role as time moves along. There is space designed into the floor plans not only for today’s needs, but for the future as well.

The county is administered through the actions of the three Nodaway County Commissioners, who meet regularly in their office on the first floor of the Administrative Center to conduct the county’s business dealing with budget and finance matters, road and bridge projects and the general business of the county’s operation.

Robert Schieber is serving his first term as the county’s presiding commissioner. Bob Westfall serves as the county’s North District commissioner and Bob Stiens represents the South District. They are elected to four-year

terms on a staggered basis.

The commissioners’ office is situated in the southeast corner of the complex.

Primary access to the county officers’ suites is through the main entrance at the corner of Market and Fourth streets.

The court’s regular meeting schedule is posted and the sessions are open to the public. The commissioners’ telephone number is 660-582-5541.

The Nodaway County Clerk’s office is located on the south side of the main floor. As the county’s principal budget officer, the clerk pays all invoices and handles payroll and is responsible for preparing the county tax statements.

The office also oversees voter registration and conducts elections. The clerk’s office telephone number is 660-5822251.

The Nodaway County Assessor’s office, featuring individual space for personal property and real estate transactions, is also on the first floor. The county’s collector/treasurer’s office is on the north side of the main floor. Its design includes two collection stations, and a handicap-access area. The asses-

sor is responsible for monitoring new construction and remodeling and setting assessment levels on all real and personal property. Both offices have ample space for storing permanent records.

The office of the county recorder of deeds is on the lower floor of the administrative center. That office provides

numerous services to county residents, including the recording of federal and state tax liens, military discharges, and the recording of all surveyed property and new surveys. Marriage licenses are also obtained through the recorder’s office. The number to the recorder’s office is 660-582-5711.

Mozingo Lake golf, fishing receive national attention

Top quality outdoor recreation is only minutes away from Maryville at Mozingo Lake Recreation Park.

The comparatively small lake located in the center of the Mozingo area is ranked No. 79 among the top bass fisheries in Bassmaster Magazine’s 2014 list of the most productive sport-fishing lakes in the United States.

The Mozingo Lake, located five miles east from downtown Maryville, is a 1,006-acre lake with 26 total miles of shoreline creating numerous inlets and coves for conducive to freshwater fishing.

The popular park is also home to the 18-hole, par-72 championship Mozingo Lake Golf Course.

Designated as one of the top 50 courses in Missouri, according to a Kansas City Star golf publication, and as the best course in Missouri playable for less than $50 by Golf Digest, Mozingo Lake Golf Course offers an incredible golfing experience, one totally unexpected in a community the size of Maryville.

And that experience is slated to get even better next spring with the open-

ing of the new nine-hole Tom Watsondesigned Junior Golf Course now under construction.

A 2,700-foot-long earthen dam that is 77 feet high and provides excellent water for boating and skiing impounds the lake, which has three boat docks— two are handicap accessible — with a fishcleaning facility at the main ramp.

Non-motorized boat fees are $5 per day or $35 for a season pass. Boats with motors are charged $8 per day, with season passes at $45. Boat lengths for use on the lake are set at a maximum of 28 feet for both traditional and pontoon boats. The speed limit on the water is 40 miles per hour.

The 2,000-acre park surrounding the lake features a 3.5-mile nature trail along with a 70-foot walking bridge, from which many wildlife observers have been kept busy with sightings.

Many species of birds have been spotted at the park — everything from pheasant, quail and several varieties of ducks and geese to pelicans, turkey and an occasional swan or bald eagle. However, birds are not the only wildlife in

the park. Deer, rabbits, squirrels, red fox, and even bobcats — plus many species of insects, have been seen throughout the park.

A 10-acre youth camp features living quarters, a community building, a bathhouse, 15 fire pits, hiking areas and fish-

ing activities. Five cabins are available in the youth camp area, renting for $30 to $60 per night. Tent camping is available in the youth area for $1 per person.

95 RV sites available There are 95 RV parking sites available in the park. Electricity is available

The rate for any of the 20 reservable RV pads is $35 per night.

Mozingo Lake Recreation Area also has seven log cabins available for rent.

Any of the furnished one- and twobedroom cabins make a great place for visiting relatives to stay, or they are the perfect weekend getaway location for Nodaway County residents. Adjacent to the lake, the cabins offer all of the amenities the Mozingo recreation area has to offer.

One-bedroom cabins sleep four or six each and can be rented for as low as $65 per night, with rates increasing for weekends and holidays. Two-bedroom cabins sleep 10 or12 persons and can be rented for as low as $110 to $120 per night.

For more information, or to reserve a stay at the cabins, call the park office at 660-562-2323.

The units are quite popular, however, and reservations should be made as early as possible.

Two large picnic shelters are available for rent and interested parties may obtain more information on rentals also by

calling 660-562-8001. There are other small picnic areas scattered throughout the park.

There is also a swimming beach, sand volleyball court area and a newly developing equestrian trail and facilities available.

Missouri residents 65 years old or older and anyone 15 years or younger do not need a fishing permit to try their hand at catching any of the many species of fish available.

Great golf available The popular — and challenging — Mozingo Lake Recreation Area golf course is located on approximately 250 acres of lush, rolling hills along the shore of Mozingo Lake.

The course features lush greens, wellkept fairways and challenging native grass rough, water and sand hazards in a setting that pays tribute to the area’s agricultural past. New concrete cart paths have been installed to make play even more accessible.

In addition to a complete pro shop, a clubhouse snack bar is available. Group outings and tournaments are easily accommodated.

The new Tom Watson Junior Course will feature nine regulation-size greens

on its 1,600-yard layout, in additiion to a large pitching and putting practice area.

It will be located adjacent to the existing No. 10 hole on the regulation course.

Weekday greens fees are $16 for nine holes, $25 for 18 holes (all day). Weekend rates are $18 and $28 and carts are

available for $10 per person for nine holes, $15 per person for 18. Round and seasonal rates are also available.

For complete information or to schedule tee times, contact the Mozingo Golf Course Pro Shop at 660-562-3864 or visit www.mozingogolf.com.

MIDC efforts assist local industrial development through east-side park Members of the Maryville Industrial Development Corp. board of directors assist local industrial development through operation of an industrial park on the east side of Maryville.

The MIDC, a Missouri corporation since 1956, has a two-fold purpose — “to take such action as will encourage or induce or assist in the location, enlargement of factories, and industry in and around the City of Maryville, and to advance and develop the city of Maryville and surrounding area industrially.”

In addition to its successes of the past, the MIDC has more recently worked in conjunction with the area’s other business development organizations and the Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship at Northwest Missouri State University, to help bring new industrial development to Maryville.

MIDC, made up of 354 stockholders and a board of directors who have never taken payment for their efforts, can list successes in attracting and helping to expand major industries in the Maryville community through intensive recruitment efforts, providing low-cost property for plant construction, and infrastructure development.

Those companies, which employ approximately 2,000 full-time employees, include Kawasaki Motors Cor-

poration, and Deluxe, producer of a wide range of business forms.

Employees of those plants create a huge economic impact within Maryville and the region. The tradition of partnering with industry to create a strong economy continues with an expansion of Nucor/LMP Steel and Wire.

MIDC continues to improve its modern industrial park on a 180-acre site north of Energizer and Maryville Metal Culverts.

The property is divided into east and west sections by Jet Road, and extends north from Leigh Wilson Industrial Road.

The land has been subdivided into industrial sites and sanitary sewer has been installed on the property.

The MIDC has partnered with utility companies to provide utilities — natural gas and electricity.

Initially, MIDC paved Leigh Wilson Industrial Road north from Highway 136 to Maryville Metal Culverts and has now paved that road further into the industrial park to provide increased access. The MIDC has built an infrastructure road into the park’s east and west sections with the west extension street extending west toward the Highway 71 Bypass.

The MIDC has also sold property to Empire Gas for an office and maintenance building.

Ambulance services are available for all Nodaway County residents Emergency and non-emergency ambulance transportation is available to residents of Nodaway County through services provided by the Nodaway County Ambulance District, headquartered at 103 Carefree Dr., in Maryville.

Although the district is based in Maryville, emergency and non-emergency services are available for all of Nodaway County, and some outlying areas, a total of 885 square miles.

Every ambulance is staffed with a paramedic and EMT, 24-hours-a-day.

They work 12-hour shifts, from 6:30-6:30, and two units are scheduled for service at all times.

All EMTs have 300 to 600 hours of classroom training in basic life support techniques and 300 to 600 hours of combined ambulance and hospital clinics. Paramedics receive an additional 1,000-plus hours of training on advanced life support techniques and an additional 1,000 hours minimum of combined ambulance and hospital clinics.

A supervisory board comprised of six elected citizens, each serving a three-year term, governs the district.

Current supervisors are Rich Allen of Skidmore, board chairman; Julie Crady, Maryville, vice chairman; John Redden, Maryville, secretary; Scott Walk, Maryville, treasurer, and Charlie Standiford, Ravenwood, and Brian McPherson, Burlington Junction, board members.

The board’s monthly meetings, open to the public, are held at 7:30 p.m. each second Wednesday.

The district PAT van, which can help with transportation, is available to anyone for transportation to or from any type of medical appointment they might have in the county. Use is not restricted by age or physical limitations.

The van can travel outside Nodaway County, but special arrangements need to be made at least 24 hours in advance and those trips are on a first- come, first-served basis. In-county fees are $15 one-way; $30 for round trip. Out-of-county fees add $1 per loaded mile to the in-county rates.

The ambulance district also aids in supporting five res-

cue squads in the county that are manned by volunteer crews of first responders.

They are stationed in Burlington Junction, covering the north and west parts of the county; Hopkins, the north and east sections; Platte Valley (Ravenwood), east part of the county; Tri-C Fire Department, and Maryville, covering any location not covered by the others. Additional trained first-responder volunteers are also located in Clearmont and Skidmore.

These first-responders attempt to stabilize the patient until the ambulance arrives to transport them to the hospital. The ambulance district responder units are equipped with automatic external defibrillators. Use of AEDs expands the range of the rescuers by adding the ability to make early defibrillation available to the patient.

Some studies show that if CPR and early defibrillation are used in the first four to six minutes from the time of cardiac arrest, survival rate for the patient improves dramatically. This is important to area patients because of longer response times to some parts of the county.

The ambulance district ‘s Web site is www.nodawaycountyambulance.org.

The business office observes normal weekday office hours.

The non-emergency phone number is 660-582-3311.

Maryville is home to 10 unique parks

From the shimmering waters of the Maryville Aquatic Center in Beal Park on the city’s east side to the hustle and bustle of seemingly constant softball, soccer and youth football games at Donaldson Westside Park, the Maryville Parks and Recreation operates one of the finest, most complete public recreation complexes in Missouri.

Opened at a cost of $4.24 million in 2003 and improved with the addition of a $1.9 million expansion in 2009, the Maryville Community Center is a “joint use facility” which provides Maryville residents with all-season recreation facilities that include basketball and volleyball courts, a walking track, the newly expanded aerobics and fitness area, a complete weight-training room, and specialty fitness training facilities.

Meeting rooms are also available for various community meetings and gatherings The aquatic center was the third of its

kind in Missouri when it was opened in 1993 and it is still one of the best.

It features two waterslides, two diving boards, zero-depth entry, fountains, and the traditional eight swimming lanes to accommodate the competitive Maryville Sharks swim team. Complete information about the MAC is available by calling 660-562-2663.

Rod Auxier is director of the MPR and his office is in the community center at 1407 N. Country Club Rd., adjacent to the Missouri Army National Guard Armory. The telephone number at the community center is 660-5622923.

Maryville has 10 community parks, each with a unique flavor. Several are designed with recreational sports in mind; others are ideal for a day of play with the kids or grandkids; and still others are perfect for a quiet picnic or just a day in the sun.

Beal Park — Maryville Aquatic Center, ball fields, tennis, sand volleyball and basketball courts, picnic facili-

ties and playground equipment.

Donaldson Westside Park — Baseball, softball, football and soccer fields; skateboard park; picnic facilities, amphitheater and playground equipment.

Maryville Public Library

The Maryville Public Library, located in its newly landscaped facility at the corner of Fifth and Main streets, was established in 1904.

Library hours are from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday and from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. Saturday. The library is closed Sundays and holidays.

Internet access is available to the public at the library. The library provides nearly 50,000 books and materials such as CDs, videos, books on tape, cassettes, newspapers and magazines.

The library also offers an automated card catalog.

Books will be delivered to the homebound on request. Books are also available through library loan.

A reciprocal agreement with the B.D. Owens Library at Northwest Missouri State University allows Maryville Public Library patrons to use the academic library and university students to use the public library. The library offers a leisure reading room, independent study rooms, a young adult area,

a conference room and a community room which may be used by the public, a children’s area, elevator access and space for a growing collection of books and materials.

A nine-member board that is appointed by the city council to serve three-year terms administers the library. Stephanie Patterson is the head librarian.

Story Hour for preschoolers takes place September through April. A Summer Reading Program is conducted from June through August for children in pre-kindergarten and older To obtain a library card, an application must be filled out and identification provided. Children must be able to sign their name and understand the concept of a library to apply for a card. Residents of Maryville support the library with a 15-cent levy. Non-residents support library services through an annual fee.

Approximately 85 percent of the library’s funding comes from property and real estate taxes. Three percent is

received from state aid and the remaining 12 percent comes from fines, fees, grants and interest income.

For information on the complete range of services, stop by the library or call 660-582-5281.

Northwest Missouri State University

Northwest Missouri State University, a state-assisted, four-year regional university offering 140 undergraduate majors and 36 master’s programs, has been a part of the Maryville community since 1905.

The institution, first named Fifth District Normal, was initiated to provide teachers for northwestern Missouri.

Now, with an enrollment of approximately 7,000 students and more than 800 employees, Northwest has evolved into a nationally recognized educational institution offering bachelor’s, master’s, specialist and doctoral degrees as well as two-year certificate programs.

Traditional classes are available on a trimester calendar and via interactive television and the Internet.

Since 1987, Northwest has maintained its ongoing reputation as the Electronic Campus. Northwest provides a fully loaded and networked laptop computer to full-time (minimum of 12 hours) undergraduate and graduate students (9 hours) and there are more than 2,400 computing stations across

campus. More recently, the university was a national test site for using electronic books in a university environment.

Because of this commitment to technology, Northwest students enjoy some of the best computer resources of any college in the country. Students have free 24-hour Internet and e-mail access.

Via their computers, students are able to search the library, enroll in classes, check their transcripts and financial aid standing, create an employment file or find a campus job.

Northwest Missouri State has earned a national reputation as a leading practitioner of continuous quality improvement through its Culture of Quality program to strengthen all aspects of undergraduate and graduate education. Northwest’s efforts to achieve total quality management resulted in the university’s winning the Missouri Quality Award in 1997, 2001, 2005 and 2008. In 2003, Northwest was a finalist for the prestigious Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award.

University President Dr. John Jasinski is beginning the sixth year of his tenure as the university’s 10th president. A former member of the Northwest facul-

ty and administration, Dr. Jasinski succeeded Dr. Dean Hubbard at the conclusion of his 25-year tenure with the See NWMSU, Page 38

Northwest’s Bearcats captured the 2013 NCAA Division II National Football Championship, the third time the team has achieved such an honor. Previous championships concluded the 1998, 1999 and 2009 seasons.

Legendary Bearcat football coach Mel Tjeerdsma retired following the 2010 football season, when the team was stopped one game short of a record sixth consecutive appearance in the DII national championship game.

Tjeerdsma, now Northwest’s director of athletics, was succeeded by longtime defensive coordinator Scott Bostwick, whose untimely death prevented his coaching a game. Then-offensive

coordinator Adam Dorrel was named to replace Bostwick and the Maryville native who earned all-state honors as a Spoofhound player and All-America recognition after beginning as a walkon with the Bearcats coached his third Bearcat team to its fourth national title to cap the 2013 season.

The Northwest Lady Bearcats won both the MIAA regular season and tournament championshps in the 20102011 season before advancing to the Final Four in Kansas City.

Northwest athletes compete in football, soccer, cross country, volleyball, basketball, track and field, tennis, softball and baseball. The university’s colors are green and white, and the Bearcat is the official mascot of both the men’s and women’s athletic teams.

Since 1993, Northwest has been Missouri’s official state arboretum. More than 1,300 trees of 125 different species cover the campus and fulfill both aesthetic and educational purposes.

Since 1894

A Mission Of Service For 120 Years St. Francis Hospital & Health Services is proud of its long relationship and strong roots in northwest Missouri. On September 8, 1894, the same year of the St. Louis World’s Fair, we began as St. Joseph Hospital, a 12-bed facility located in a house on three acres of land next to St. Mary’s Catholic Church (now St. Gregory’s Catholic Church).

Our first patient, Thomas Kidney, was admitted a week before we officially opened, heralding a commitment to patient care that has long been a hallmark of this hospital. Today, St. Francis Hospital & Health Services is a 81-bed, Joint Commission Accredited, full-service acute care facility, with advanced programs in women’s health, surgery, sports medicine and mental health to name just a few.

As we look forward to our future together, St. Francis Hospital & Health Services remains committed to this community and will continually strive to provide the highest quality of healthcare!
