Street resurfacing plan, 39th Street
extension get preliminary city okay
The Bethany City Council gave
preliminary approval to the first year
of the street improvement program
and authorized the completion of
39th Street during Monday night’s
meeting at City Hall.
The city plans to use revenue
from the voter-approved bond issue
to pave roads in the Daily Addition,
the Broyles Addition, Countryside
East and the Bethany Square, including one block in each direction, at a
cost of about $900,000.
An additional $1 million in bond
funds would be budgeted to make
39th Street a through road to Bulldog
Avenue, according to the preliminary
budget for 2016-17.
Mayor Patrick Miller said funds
in the North Tax Increment Finance
District would be used to pay for the
$1 million project in addition to general revenue funds made possible by
leveraging the bond financing.
“This is a win-win for Bethany
because we can now complete many
projects even more quickly,” said
Councilman Steve Miles.
Former councilman Charles Crab-
tree attended Monday night’s council meeting and spoke against using
bond funds to benefit a private development.
“Why would we be spending
money on something that we don’t
even own yet?” Crabtree said.
Miller answered, “We will own
(the street) by the time we spend any
money on it.”
Dave Callaway, the developer, has
been doing preliminary grading work
and has spread gravel along the route
from Bartlett Street to the approach
to Bulldog Avenue.
City Attorney Cristine Stallings
said the ordinance allows the city to
accept a gravel street.
Randy Brejnik, a candidate for
Westward councilman, said the city
should spend money on maintaining
the city’s “regular streets” rather than
on 39th Street. “Some of these streets
are in pretty bad shape,” he said.
Gene Ishmael, a candidate for
Eastward councilman, also spoke in
opposition to spending the $1 million
on the street.
Councilman Miles said the street
will open up land for future development.
“That road needs to be finished,”
he said. “We don’t have any room
to grow. There has been interest in
building there.”
Crabtree described that as “speculation” and should not be used as a
justification for spending city money
on the street.
In a statement issued after the
meeting, Miller said approval of the
street program is a “major milestone
in what the voters approved last year
to upgrade our city’s street infrastructure.”
“Because of the revenue stream
coming in,” he said, “we are going
to accomplish even more than we
expected in year one.”
The city expects to receive an
additional $400,000 a year from the
transportation sales tax to be added
to the $250,000 that the city currently
receives from other sources. Because
of insufficient revenue, the city “has
been put years behind in street projects,” Miller said.

Reading Oasis opens: Leslie Niebauer, fifth and sixth grade teacher at the Ridgeway R-5 School, cuts a ribbon
officially opening the Reading Oasis in the school’s library. Ridgeway received a grant to purchase books and to
establish a comfortable reading center for pupils. Superintendent Brenda Dougan, left, and first and second grade
teacher Jandy Whitaker were holding the ribbon.
Clifford the Big Red Dog gave a hug to Chloe and Cason Billups during the dedication ceremony. Alene Lanning
read a story to her granddaughter Sophia Lanning at the reading event.
Ridgeway pupils have reading spot
Ridgeway students are enjoying a new spot to read their books
after the dedication of the “Reading Oasis” Wednesday night in the
school’s library.
Ridgeway was one of only 10
schools in the United States to
receive a grant from United Way,
Scholastic and the Red Nose Foundation to establish the reading
center.
The Reading Oasis is brightly
decorated with colorful palm trees
on the wall.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony was
held in the school library to officially open the reading center. Clifford the Big Red Dog was a special
guest at the dedication.
Leslie Niebauer, a fifth and sixth
grader teacher at Ridgeway, applied
for the grant last year when she was
a Title I teacher. She pointed out in
her application that her school is
located in a small community where
resources are stretched thin and the
needs are great.
She was recently surprised
to learn that the school had been
selected for the award. More than
1,200 children’s books were delivered to the school as part of the program.
Several parents, grandparents
and children attended the dedication
on Wednesday night. They looked
through the bookshelves and some
read stories to their children in the
new oasis setting.
The Ridgeway school also
received good news that it has
been awarded a grant from Twitter founder Jack Dorsey. Dorsey, a
native of St. Louis, announced last
week that he had fully funded more
than 600 Missouri school projects
including Ridgeway’s.
Niebauer learned about the grant
program through DonorsChoose.
org.
“I was looking for grants to help
find materials for my classroom,”
Niebauer said. “I got an email from
them saying my project had been
fully funded.”
The grant will pay for an activity
table for small group lessons.
“For many students, these small
group discussions are a safe zone
and they are more likely to share
their ideas and struggles,” the
teacher said in her application.
The grant also paid for dry erase
markers used in the math stations
and individual white boards for
each student to do their work during
group session.
More than 50 athletes, actors and
philanthropists, including Dorsey,
announced a surprise “flash fund-

Bethany’s popular L.E.D. street
lighting program will be expanded
to the swimming pool area under a
plan approved Monday night by the
City Council.
City Administrator Jan Hagler
said the summer electrical program
would include the installation of
new lights along 29th Street to the
high school campus.
City officials said they have
been receiving compliments from
the public about the use of brighter
L.E.D. lights as part of last year’s
project. Hagler said Bethany has
been contacted by other cities wanting to get information on the street
light program.
Kenny Robertson, city power
superintendent, presented the plans
for the summer electrical work
at Monday night’s meeting. The
city already had planned to light
25th Street from Oakland to Bulldog Avenue and 41st Street from
U.S. 136 north to the Farm Service
Agency building.
The council approved a $121,641
bid from Kriz-Davis for material for
the electrical program. The city will
install 50 new streetlights including
the addition of 12 for 29th Street.
In other business, Hagler said

Culvert collapse: A rusted out culvert, which carried storm water beneath Miller Street for generations, lies alongside a small Buck’s Branch tributary near the hospital intersection. The street had begun to sink in when the culvert
collapsed. Miller Street will remain closed until the culvert has been replaced and repairs are made to the street. This
work may take the rest of the week, according to City Administrator Jan Hagler.

Quality fescue grass adds value to state’s beef herd
Early green grass growth slowed
Saturday. I watch my lawn with its
fescue clumps to clue me on farm
pastures.
For a couple of weeks, I’d said,
“This is an early spring.” I asked: “Is
this El Nino?” As I scraped my car
Saturday morning I stopped to watch
the weather.
The air filled with snow clumps
from low, grey clouds. It didn’t feel
like winter, but looked like winter.
Anyone sleeping late never knew it
snowed. It melted fast. There was
heavy frost on the car, but the ground
was warm. Not a trace of white
remained after a few minutes.
It was a signal: It’s not an early,
warm, grass-growing spring. But,
that’s not unusual. I’ve seen March
exit like a lion before. Also, I’ve seen
killer blizzards in April. Those not
only covered green grass, but also
caused loss of young calves.
No telling what we will get. We
are in a transition from El Nino to
La Nina. Missouri lies between north
and south where it is hard to predict.
This week, a strong jet stream zipped
north and then dipped back south
bringing energy filled cool air to our
skies.
What? Cold air from global warming. Yep. A better name is climate
change. As energy builds in the air,
we’ve not reached a warm equilibrium, yet. It’s not warm all of the
time.
February set another record for
warmth. So, our warm spring came
early. Some corn has been planted.
Now the cold slows growth of pastures that cows seek after a winter of
eating bad hay left from last spring’s
bad hay days.
Economists work out their elegant models of grain and livestock
prices to come. But, global shifts in
weather spoil their best work. They
always add a disclaimer: “This study
assumes normal weather.” Sorry
guys. We don’t get normal weather
these days. Abnormal is the order of
the day.
For a few minutes I waited in

winter snow, hoping it was the last
I’ll see this year. We will see grass.
Missourians must change the way
they grow grass for beef cow herds.
That idea got a big boost from a

When industry leaders gathered
they brainstormed adding value to
our huge beef industry. Missouri is
No. 3 in U.S. cattle numbers. Cattle
and calves brought in $2 billion in
2014. When all labor, direct, indirect
and induced, is added the state total
comes to $3.8 billion in 2014.
I haven’t read the whole report,
yet. But, I didn’t find the millions
added by the MU Show-Me-Select
Replacement Heifer program. That
has become huge added value.
We now stand sixth nationally for
replacement heifers.
We’re becoming the go-to place
for quality heifers. They stay alive,
have live calves and add genetic quality.
The report part I’ve read, so far,
tells the value of eliminating toxin
from fescue pastures. That costs us
millions ever year. The new addedvalue book outlines steps and dollar
benefits better than anything I’ve
read.
It comes back to an underappreciated truth by legislators, MU leaders
and even cattle producers. Premium
beef cattle need quality grass. That
takes Extension.
Quality beef holds major potential for over 46,000 farmers raising
cattle. What if half of them read about
removing fescue toxicosis? Then,
what if half of those farmers replaced
their pastures with toxin-free novel
endophyte.
Should I be a pessimist on progress? The Alliance for Grassland
Renewal planned four workshops
starting March 28. The one at Linneus, Mo. was cancelled for lack of
enrollment. Tell me why farmers won’t invest
in profit-making grass and beef.

A historic occurrence: Legislature
overrides governor’s vote
The one thing the state legislature
is constitutionally obligated to do
each year is to establish and pass a
state budget. The budget uses smart,
conservative estimations of income
and then allots that income to the
various departments, programs and
initiatives of the state government
for the good of the citizens. Once
passed, the budget is then given to the
governor to implement. The governor, essentially, writes the checks that
he is told to write by the legislature.
If it turns out the state’s income was
overestimated, or an emergency like
the Joplin tornado or Ferguson riots
occurs, the governor can withhold
some of the money that was allocated
by the legislature.
In the past, some governors have
used this withholding power as a
political scheme, rather than as the
fiscally prudent tool it was intended
to be. Our current governor has been
especially notorious for this tactic,
withholding money from education,
libraries, public health initiatives,
and more in his time in office. These
withholds were not done due to a
lack of funds, but were designed to
intentionally irritate and aggravate
Missouri citizens so they would complain to their state representatives and
senators. The legislature would then
plead with the governor to release the
withholds, which the governor would
only entertain if the legislature gave
in on voter ID, Medicaid expansion,
or whatever cause he was pushing
at the time. This style of governing
would use the people of Missouri
Letter
to the
district
by J Eggleston,
State Rep., 2nd District
as political pawns in the governor’s
policy chess match with the people’s
elected representatives.
After being fed up with this tactic,
the voters passed Amendment 10 in
2014, which allows that a two-thirds
vote in the House and Senate could
override a governor’s withholding
much as it can a governor’s veto of
a bill. This week, we used the new
Amendment 10 power to override
two of the governor’s withholdings from last year’s budget – one
pertaining to college scholarships
and another relating to a program to
help those suffering from traumatic
brain injury. These two withholds
amounted to less than a million dollars (0.004% of the overall budget),
but they are priceless as test cases
for Amendment 10. 109 votes were
required, and both measures received
bi-partisan support of more than 120
votes.
It was an honor for me to speak
on the floor in favor of these first-ever
budgetary overrides, and to be part of
voting them “Do Pass.” This historic
event transfers some of the power of
government that was taken by the
executive branch back to those who
are the elected spokespersons for the
citizens of our state. I now anxiously
wait the day when a similar historic
power correction occurs in Washington DC.
Until next time, best wishes of
safety, health and prosperity to you
and your family.
Enacting budget transparency policy on city’s agenda
One thing I am most proud of as
mayor of Bethany, is working with
your elected councilmen to enact a
balanced budget. We have worked
very hard to ensure your tax dollars
are not spent in any other fashion but
in a fiscally conservative manner.
One thing we stopped doing is
spending money from reserves and
taking money from dedicated funds
to pay for expenses in various departments. This was a terrible budget
practice being used in years past and
one the state of Missouri’s auditor’s
office routinely cracks down on.
I have always thought it common
sense not to spend what you don’t
have, or rely heavily on savings and
certainly not to take money illegally
out of dedicated revenue streams.
This year I want to take things a step
further by enacting a new policy for
the city, budget transparency. Your councilmen and I have
always made it city policy to have
available to anyone who wishes to
review the budget a copy at City Hall.
I believe it to be a good idea for us
to post the budget online as well and
will propose this action be taken as
soon as the budget is complete and
passed for next year. You as the taxpayer and financier of the city’s operations should be able to see where
your dollars go.
I also believe it is a good idea to

Man charged with DWI after crash
Isaac B. Martinez, 46, of Bethany
was taken to Harrison County Community Hospital Saturday afternoon
after his pickup truck overturned on
Highway 69, north of Bethany.
According to the Highway Patrol,
Martinez was southbound in a 1996
Chevrolet S-10 when his vehicle
went off the right side of the roadway, five miles north of Bethany. The
pickup struck a fence and overturned,
coming to a rest on its top.
The NTA ambulance transported
Martinez to HCCH for treatment of
moderate injuries.
Cpl. B.R. Hilliard investigated

funds, revenue streams and balances
of both TIF districts should be online
for anyone to access. It is important
for your elected officials and city
employees to be held accountable
for every dollar spent, unlike what
we see with the governor’s administration in Jefferson City or the folks
running Washington, DC these days. Your councilmen and I share a
strong philosophy of having a balanced budget which requires lean city
government. This has proven to be
good government as we were able to
save significantly by enacting these
fiscally prudent policies.
I believe comparing the budgets
and the process by which they are
written to most communities of our
size and certainly with past budget’s
written, we will be able to show just
how well the city of Bethany stands.
The Council and I have goals
for the future and a few exciting
announcements to make relating to
infrastructure. I firmly believe Bethany’s best days are ahead and with a
properly written, balanced, and transparent budget process we can make
that happen sooner than later.

Recount may be weeks off in presidential primary Harrison County on
By Riley Newton
Missouri Digital News
It will be weeks before there’s a
final count in Missouri’s razor-thin
presidential primaries held Tuesday,
March 15.
And that means weeks before the
losing candidates could request a
recount.
Stephanie Flemming, media
director for the Missouri Secretary
of State, said it could be at least four
weeks before the candidates could
request a recount.
“We have to wait until the results
are official and certified before the
losing candidate could do anything,”
Fleming said. “It can take up to four
weeks to certify the primary results.”
Under Missouri law, a losing candidate can request a recount if the
margin is within one-half of one per-
centage point.
Unofficial figures from the secretary of state’s office show both Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican
Donald Trump in the neighborhood
of a 0.2 percentage-point lead over
their closest opponents.
The figures, however, do not
include provisional ballots and overseas absentee ballots.
After the results are certified
by the secretary of state’s office, it
would then take 20 days to conduct
and certify a recount.
The Associated Press reports
Democrat Bernie Sanders said he
would not request a recount. There
was no immediate response from the
campaign of Republican Ted Cruz as
to whether he would seek a recount.

Parson described Right to Farm

State Senator Mike Parson of Bolivar, who sponsored legislation that

Parson was introduced to an audience at the Harrison County Farm

Medicaid coverage that will cause
fiscal problems for the state. He said
the state has experienced $350 million in revenue growth during the past
year, but Medicaid expansion would
cost $390 million that would put the
state “$40 million in the hole.”
“The federal government doesn’t
have to balance the budget like we
do,” he said.
Parson served 2 1/2 years in the
Army where he was a criminal invesigation officer, stationed in Germany.
After returning home, he farmed and
owned gas stations. He served as the
Polk sheriff before being elected to
the House and later to the Missouri
Senate.
ConAgra, one of the region’s largest employers, announced on March
9 that it will be closing its Trenton
operations.
The company said it will gradually phase out its Trenton facilities
starting in June 2017 and will cease
product there in 2018.
Some 400 employees of the company will lose their jobs. The St.
Joseph News-Press reported that
the second production line will be
idled in February 2018. Nestle chili
production will conclude in May of
2018.
northern edge of eclipse
Harrison County residents who
want to get the full effect of the 2017
Great American Eclipse will have to
drive a few miles south on I-35 to
view the total eclipse.
The northern edge of the total
eclipse will pass across Pattonsburg
at about noon on August 27.
St. Joseph has become a destination for eclipse tourists because of
its position at the epicenter of the
blackout. The St. Joseph News-Press
reported that eclipse watchers from
as far away as Spain have already
booked rooms in local motels in
expectation of the solar show.
The nearest community within the
zone of the total eclipse is Cameron
where the eclipse will last 2 minutes
and 27 seconds, according to the
website eclipse2017.org. The partial
phase eclipse will start at 11:41 a.m.
and totality will begin at 1:07 p.m.

Trail donation:The Harrison County Track & Trail Foundation recently
received a donation from the Harrison County Inter Agency Council to help
fund the foundation’s current project to hard surface a walking trail at the
Bethany Memorial Park. The current quarter mile gravel trail runs around the
outside edge of the interior portion of the park and will be the first to receive
a hard surface. And, as funds allow, the trail can be extended throughout the
park.
The Harrison County Inter Agency Council meets once a month to bring
all the organizations together to promote program information. Pictured from

sisters, brother-in-law, and nieces and
doing a little shopping.
Have a good week, be kind to each
other, and remember next weekend
is Easter Sunday. Many of us will
celebrate with family and friends and
enjoy Easter baskets and Easter egg
hunts. Please remember it is also a
time to be thankful because Jesus
made the greatest sacrifice of all time
when died for all of us.

Once again there isn’t much news
in Cainsville! I guess that could be
considered a good thing.
If anyone out there who has «facebook» would like to see some old
pictures of Cainsville go to the Cainsville compilation page and check it
out, there are some awesome photos
and information.
The Giving Tree on the square of
Cainsville is in need of hangers for
clothes if anyone has any to spare.
Also don›t forget that this is a completely free place to get some nice
clothes. Everyone from everywhere
is welcome to come over and see
what is offered on Saturday mornings.

Cainsville National Honor
Society students go to Ozarks
Let Your Roar Be Heard! That
was the theme of this year’s Missouri Association of the National
Honor Society State Convention held
at Tan-Tar-A at Lake Ozark. Jeanne
Cracraft, Cainsville National Honor
Society Adviser, accompanied Cainsville NHS students, Shaundra Nash,
Isaac Chaney, Kala Thompson and
Logan Easum to the NHS State Convention held on March 8th and 9th.
The group was both entertained
and motivated by the exceptional
keynote speaker, John Beede. Mr.
Beede recently climbed to the
summit of Mt. Everest and was featured on TV’s “60 Minutes”. He has
had a variety of adventures, including
being struck by lightning, attacked by
a 5-foot iguana, swam with a whale
shark, nearly fell 80 feet to his death,
and once did the hokey-pokey in the
eye of a hurricane! His presentation
encouraged his audience to live life
at the highest levels of peak performance and leadership.
The students also participated in
various leadership breakout sessions
and attended the general sessions
where the business meetings were
conducted. They also had time to
enjoy the resort activities on Saturday
evening. Three hundred thirty junior
high and high school students from
around the state of Missouri attended
the State Convention.

Mayor candidates take positions on city issues
Former Mayor Joe Johnson will
oppose current Mayor Patrick Miller
in the Tuesday, April 5, Bethany
municipal election.
The candidates were asked to
comment on a number of local issues.
Their response follow:
The city had success in recruiting a new manufacturer, Fargo
Assembly. Can the city do more to
attract new industry and to promote the expansion of existing business?
Joe Johnson: As a businessman,
I know that businesses stand or fall
on their own. Using public funds
to entice any business to Bethany
is in the long run not beneficial to
the public nor existing businesses.
I brought Bridewall jail to Bethany
with its 80 employees at no cost to the
public; that’s economic development.
If the concept of enticing through
tax abatement, public funds or other
methods, at the cost to the public is
ingrained in people’s minds, there
should be some formula to guide that
effort that would ensure reimbursement of cost expended at actual value
in a timely manner. Rather than some
hoped for dream for the future that
doesn’t come to fruition as has been
experienced on numerous occasions.
Patrick Miller: Yes. We have some
very exciting possibilities, especially
considering the impending work in
both TIF districts. We have a strategy to specifically target industry in
neighboring states and goals to re-do
the permit and fee structure to make
Bethany more business friendly. The
reality is that Bethany uses the same
codes as the city of Los Angeles. Of
course that is ridiculous and must be
changed.
We have multiple contractors who
have basically stated flat out that they
will no longer take work in Bethany
as a result of this environment. We
have more tools and resources available to us now due to our contracting
with Axiom Strategies for business
development and strategic planning
than we have ever had. I am particularly excited about the possibility of
creating a downtown revitalization
district to package a complex and
highly targeted combination of Missouri economic development incentive policies to allow re-investment
in our downtown square and business

district. I have seen first hand how
such policies have turned downtown
areas around in Iowa. I am optimistic
with the team we now have in place
as well as our newly sharpened tools
in our “economic development tool
bag” we can and will see successful
business expansion.
We are also very fortunate in that
Bethany has an Industrial Development Board with more resources
available to incentivize development
and investment than most towns our
size. It certainly isn’t unlimited so we
have to be frugal and wise how we
leverage it, but it enables us to utilize
far more Missouri Economic Development policies. I could go on and on
about economic development, it’s a
passion of mine but suffice it to say I
am very excited about Bethany’s possibilities.
What should the city do to
address complaints of high utility
rates?
Johnson: The $25 fee on our utility bills is to collect funds in advance
for the wastewater plant construction
and land acquisition. This does not
cover future operating costs. This fee
is premature and should be charged
upon completion of the project and
should be removed and credited to
those utility bills. Also the rate structure should be evaluated for proper
costs. The sad thing is that this plant
could have been waived in accordance to the Clean Water Act due to
its detrimental cost to the people of
Bethany, but once again someone in
power refused to request the waiver.
Additionally, the costs driven by PeopleServices for increased pay, benefits and profit for the same people
that have been doing the same job
for decades has and will increase
costs. This contract was without voter
approval as per state statute.
Miller: This is really an area we
have to remain diligent as a city. Last
year was the “perfect storm” for city
utilities. We as your elected officials
made the conscience decision we
could no longer rely on city reserves
to pay for city expenses. That coupled with the fact it is illegal to take
road funds to pay for utilities or any
other dedicated revenue stream and
use those dollars to pay for another
dedicated revenue department. This
has unfortunately occurred in the past
under a previous mayor.
Utility rates are simply outrageous
but believe it or not we are actually
still cheaper than many surrounding
towns. If you want to see an expensive utility bill, ask our neighbors in
Cainsville.
The voters mandated that the city
build a new water treatment facility
and that certainly added to the woes,
but our hands were tied on that decision – it simply couldn’t be put off
any longer or the EPA had notified the
Joe Johnson
Patrick Miller
Joe Johnson
Joe Johnson is a Bethany business owner. He served as mayor
from 2002-04. He retired as senior
chief following 27 years with the
Navy Seabees. He describes himself
as an economic conservative.
Patrick Miller
Patrick was born and raised in
Bethany. He moved away for a short
time for some business opportunities. He and his wife Melissa came
back to town to start a new business
venture and raise a family. “I’m glad
we did and now my wife and I are
passing that feeling of ‘home’ on to
our son who will hopefully be able
to find opportunity in Bethany to
raise a family and run a business,”
he said.
He described last two years as
mayor “very challenging at times,
but we have come a long way by
tackling problems head-on.”
city it would implement a daily fine
of thousands of dollars per day if we
didn’t move forward.
I made a campaign promise to
write budgets that were balanced, I
don’t believe in breaking promises
to the folks who voted me into office.
We did take deliberate action that has
saved us tens of thousands of dollars
a year by contracting with PeopleServices. We would have had to increase
rates much higher if we hadn’t taken
this action. We will adjust rates as
quickly as possible should things
become cheaper and we keep a constant eye on rates in order to do just
that. I do believe we can realize even
more cost savings by consolidating
all of our city departments to create
even more efficiencies and if we
can continue to realize new business
development in Bethany whether
by expansion or a new business like
Fargo, this will only increase revenues for Bethany.
Authorization for the South TIF
District will expire in 2017 when
new infrastructure must be completed. What should Bethany do to
meet this deadline?
Johnson: Over the years the city
has failed the taxing districts in the
management of the TIF projects; the
projects required right of way based
upon the approved plan for street
and utilities, engineering design to
establish the construction obligation
bonds, the completed project property sales along with accumulated
sales tax revenues to pay for the construction reimbursable costs.
There are two funds under the TIF
redevelopment fund. For simplicity
one fund is the property tax funds
which are used solely for overhead
costs like engineering. After project
completion, the economic activities
fund is used to pay reimbursable project construction costs. There are no
expenditures from the TIF funds until
after completion of the project. All of
the above must be completed prior to
the end date of 21 Nov. 2016. Also
there was supposed to be hearings
between the city Board of Aldermen
and the taxing districts to evaluate
progress and answer questions that
would result in the construction or
dissolution of the TIF under consideration.
I reviewed those questions and
have determined that dissolution of
the south TIF and return of those
funds collected to those taxing districts: School district $871,360; city,
$200,790; hospital, $98,248; county,
$82,567; township, $101,140; senior
citizen fund, $10,921 is warranted.
Miller: We are currently working
with property owners in the South
TIF District to start a road expansion that will open up a large area for
future growth. As I have said in the
past, the TIF District was created to
help expand and grow our economy
here in Bethany and they have gone
for too many years without being
used. In small town America we need
to use every tool available in order to
thrive. We will attempt to use the TIF
to do just that. Right now we have to
legally notify all property owners and
some of those are out of state so it is
taking longer than we had hoped to

begin with the South TIF road project,
but I believe we could see real activity take place as early as this summer,
weather permitting. TIF districts are
a serious benefit to Bethany and I
think by opening up an entirely new
area for development, we can further utilize our strategies for business
development and see some exciting
projects in Bethany.
Is there anything that the city
should do to facilitate downtown
redevelopment?
Johnson: The best thing that
any city could do to benefit business is to be more conservative in
their costs to the people our customers. The city is expending funds for
unneeded employees, high utilities
cost, selling equipment and property
far below fair value and contracting
our services generally cost our people
more than if it was done ourselves.
An evaluation needs to be done to
see where adjustments in cost can be
made. I would like to see more community development through grants,
etc., accomplished by a proven expert
in the field.
Miller: Thanks to many hours of
work with multiple groups, advisors,
the state Economic Development
Department, Missouri Works Partnership and private developers, we have
a real opportunity to put together a
plan to allow investment in infrastructure by private property owners.
I do not believe it is right for a town
to take tax dollars and give it to business owners to prop up a business
that might not ultimately be successful. That’s not fair to existing hard
working businesses. The state does
this with tax credits and it’s proven
the millions of dollars spent on such
credits do not yield actual return on
economic development. I want to
allow for an environment to be created that will incentivize and leverage
businesses. I’ve seen it take place in
Iowa, I think we can do it here too. I
hope to have an announcement soon
about the final package, but it’s still
being put together.
Do you see a way of finding
more financial support for the fire
department?
Johnson: Regrettably our firehouse, police station and community
center were sold and destroyed at
far less than fair value. And at present our fire department is housed in
what was referred to as a temporary
facility, which we are expending
thousands of dollars on. The city has
sent letters to entice people outside
the city to spend their money to join
an association to protect their properties; they are threatened with $1,000
fees for fire fighting if they don’t join.
State statue prescribes allowed cost
for municipal volunteer fire protection cost that the city greatly exceeds.
It is like this stuff is just dreamed up

like it was legal. Why after all these
decades of fighting fires outside
the city are we now in such turmoil
with all the pressure placed upon our
fellow man?
The fire department requires a
performance review to determine
what works and eliminate what
doesn’t; then a determination of need
can be established. I know that my
new fire chief and I will be able to
adapt the needs of our community
and the department and come up with
a plan of action.
Miller: We are seeing great
response from the membership program we started for the area outside
the city limits. This program gives
the people the choice to join at a low
yearly fee and be assured that they
will not receive a bill in the event of
a fire on their property. With this we
are raising the fire department budget
by 10% this year and hope to increase
again next year as the memberships
grow. If everyone participates, we
will be very close to having a department funded at the level we believe
it should.
The reality is that we can only use
general revenue to increase a budget
to a fire department, but general
revenue must also pay for anything
outside of departments paid for by
dedicated funds, i.e. utilities, streets,
etc. That severely limits our ability to spend more unless we dip into
reserves and I do not believe it is prudent to continue taking from reserves
as we have done for years.
I am very pleased with the
response to the new cooperative fire
district proposal and hope the department can now begin a fundraising
strategy to also generate new revenue
like many departments do across
rural Missouri. Take for example the
city of New Hampton’s very successful fundraising pancake breakfast. I
have heard much feedback regarding
the location of the department at Cole
& Myers old building, all of which
have been positive. I think that is a
good indication we are headed in the
right direction – all without increasing taxes.
Would you like to comment on
any other subjects?
Johnson: For a number of years I
have ignored life outside my business
and the church. I even started preaching more at Crestview and Bethany
Care.
I never meant to look into city
activities until I was asked to check
on one thing. Once I looked it was
like a snowball traveling downhill. I
found more and more inconsistencies
that concerned me. So once again I
venture forth to fight the good fight.
For decades the city has followed
state statute and ordinance related to
the appointment process. Recently,
for some reason, the appointed position of economic development was
filled by contract rather than the
historic appointment. The Board of
Alderman meeting minutes itself
explains that the company and candidate for this contracted position have
no experience related to economic
development. This while a fully qualified candidate with extremely fine
credentials was completely ignored,
why?
If I am blessed to be your mayor,
we will return to the rule of law.
Miller: I have been honored to
represent my hometown as mayor.
It’s been a very stressful year to say
the least, but many hard decisions
had to be made regarding spending,
budgets, administration, strategy, real
estate and so much more. It seemed
like every time we turned around
another challenge presented itself. I
like a challenge and this job certainly
satisfied in that category.
I am dedicated to strengthening
Bethany’s core and that is its business environment. If we don’t we
will only continue to lose business
and our youth to other communities. I am thrilled to announce in this
budget we have found revenue from
the savings realized in re-financing
the pool debt to begin a real investment in downtown as a way to begin
our revitalization program. This is
an exciting project and one I believe
will be a tremendous source of pride.
Once our budget is finally approved I
along with your City Council will be
making a big announcement, so stay
tuned.

Public Notices
(Editor’s Note: Public Notice advertising plays a unique
role both in American History and in the process by
which this country’s democracy is preserved. Its one
premise is that people must be informed if they are to
govern themselves competently. Public Notice advertising first came into being with the Congress of 1792.
That body, recognizing its responsibility to the people,
required the Postmaster General to advertise for bids for
the construction of new post offices. From that inauspicious beginning to the complex publication requirements in federal, state and local laws today, government
officials have come more and more to understand their
obligations to inform the public through Public Notice
advertising. Newspapers over the years have been the
vehicle by which these obligations have been fulfilled.
They will continue to be as long as the public demands
that it be informed frequently and by the best means
possible.)

Missouri turkey hunters can
expect a good spring season overall
according to the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC). The
spring turkey hunting season starts
with a youth-only weekend April
9-10. The regular spring season runs
April 18 through May 8.
Although turkey abundance in
most of the state remains below the
peak that occurred in the late 1990s
and early 2000s, turkey numbers in
many areas have begun to rebound
from the poor hatches that plagued
the population from 2007-2010.
“Spring turkey harvest has
increased each year in Missouri for
the past four years and this year’s
harvest is expected to continue this
trend,” MDC Turkey Biologist Jason
Isabelle said. “A good number of
two-year-old gobblers from the 2014
hatch should result in good hunting
“Building Hope for the Future,”
the construction of a new domestic
and sexual violence center, is an important goal of the Green Hills Women’s Shelter. With room, savings, and
safety are three key elements planned
in the construction layout for the new
Green Hills Women’s Shelter proposed for Trenton, officials say.
Room availability will increase
with four family units and five individual units in the new construction.
Family unity is a priority for the future shelter with the availability of
two kitchens for meal preparation
and storage, as well as bathrooms for
each unit. In addition to the housing
units, office space for staff, counselors, and group meeting will be located in the basement area.
Savings due to energy efficiency
will be achieved with zone control
heating and cooling instead of space
heating and cooling; thus only the
areas being used will be heated and
cooled. Also better insulated walls
and windows will create a more comfortable living area for the residents
and workers with reduced utility
costs. Savings in areas other than just
utility costs would include travel for
client counseling. This cost would be
reduced with the addition of a private
counseling office for the residential
and non-residential clients.
At this time the shelter must transport clients to another location for
counseling due to the lack of a private
area for services costing the shelter
both travel expenses and loss in advocate’s time.
Safety for both the victims of violence and the workers will be felt in
the new facility over the present facility. Alarms, double entry doors, a
fire control system, and added exits
will all make life safer for both residents and worker; furthermore, being
located close to the law enforcement
building will also add a layer of pro-

opportunities for this year’s season.”
Isabelle noted that MDC offers
turkey hunting opportunities on more
than 500 conservation areas, and
the state’s diverse landscapes mean
turkey numbers often vary by region.
Regional Forecast
Northwest and northeast Missouri had the best turkey production
in 2014, so hunters should encounter
more two-year-old gobblers in both
regions this spring.
“This year’s spring turkey harvest
should be up in northern Missouri
compared to the 2015 harvest total,”
Isabelle said. “Although turkey
numbers in most of northern Missouri remain well below the population peak that occurred 10–15 years
ago, turkey populations have begun
to rebound in portions of the region
during the last several years.”
New women’s shelter proposed for victims of abuse
2016
CALL FOR
MDC expects a good
spring turkey harvest
tection as officers’ patrol around the
home throughout the day.
Often people feel the rural ninecounty Green Hills Women’s Shelter
service area does not have enough
domestic and sexual violence to warrant a new shelter. But the Missouri
Highway Patrol reported 378 domestic violence-related incidents in 2014.
Also in 2014, the Missouri Judicial
Report recorded 486 adult abuse orders of protection and 160 child protection orders filed in the nine county
service area. This means that 646
individuals felt they were at risk and
required legal intervention.
In 2014 the shelter provided services to 179 unduplicated individuals
plus received 193 hotline crisis calls.
In 2015, 164 unduplicated clients
were served by our program with 237
hotline crisis calls. It is important to
note these figures are non-duplicated
figures. Often victims will seek shelter services, then after a few weeks or
months return home hoping the situation has changed or improved only to
find it has not and must return again
to the shelter.
These returning victims are labeled as duplicated figures and are
not included in these figures.
Another important part of our services, in addition to the residential
in house services, is what are called
non-residential services. These services are provided to victims who
can safely remain in their home but
require support and counseling to
maintain safety, restart their lives and
avoid future violent relationships.
Domestic violence continues to be a
community issue in the service area
and needs to be addressed. There is
no other agency in the primary service area that offers residential or
non-residential services to victims of
domestic and sexual violence.
Donations may be made at the following web address:
