Hard Rock moves forward with $5M expansion “What we’re most excited about is the area’s responded well to the property.

We’re glad to invest further in the city.”

New space would provide highstakes gambling area, wine bar NICK HYTREK

Business Journal staff writer‌

SIOUX CITY | Gamblers will soon have the chance to play for bigger paydays at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Sioux City.

The Hard Rock is planning a $5 million, nearly 8,000-square-foot addition to its property at 111 Third St. In addition to a high-stakes gambling area, the expansion would include a wine bar and a private lounge.

Hard Rock general manager Todd Moyer said since the casino opened nearly two years ago, visitors had requested more gambling and drinking options.

“We were getting requests

for different gaming machines and a different bar experience,” Moyer said.

The 7,857-square-foot addition onto the southeast side of the current 30,000-square-foot gaming floor will add that highstakes gaming area, including 50 new slot machines and two blackjack tables.

The wine bar will offer 32 varieties of wine by the glass. Moyer said wine is available at all the casino’s bars, but the new bar will be able to offer more wines in a quieter setting.

On the exterior, more landscaping will be added once the addition is finished, Moyer said.

The City Council on June 6 approved a modified site plan, which had earlier been recommended by the city’s Planning and Zoning Commission.

The Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission at its June 16 meeting ratified Hard Rock contracts with its contractor for the project. The commission will hear a detailed presentation of the expansion at its July meeting.

The former site of the John Morrell plant in Sioux City, shown in a June 2014 photo, is envisioned as the location for a proposed Ag Expo & Learning Center.

MRHD awards $1M to ag expo center Venue planned for former stockyards area along I-29 DAVE DREESZEN

Business Journal editor‌

SIOUX CITY | The Missouri River Historical Development Board has approved a $1 million grant for Sioux City’s proposed Ag Expo & Learning Center.

Backers said the gift, the second-largest in the 27year history of MRHD, a local nonprofit gaming group, could help spur additional contributions for the $6.7 million center, envisioned for a parcel in the former stockyards along Interstate 29.

MRHD, which holds the state license for the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and collects a share of the casino revenues to distribute to various charitable and community endeavors, formally

MRHD President Mark Monson said he hopes the pledge will kick start additional private contributions for the ag center, which would host equestrian competitions, livestock shows and other farm and agrelated events. Preliminary plans call for the complex to include a 3,000-seat arena, a warm-up arena, livestock pens and a stockyards hall of fame.

Backers say the venue would draw scores of exhibitors and visitors to the community. The project calls for an $8 million hotel next to the center.

An ag center was initially proposed for Moville, adjacent to the Woodbury

County Fairgrounds, but financing never materialized, and supporters then shifted their focus to Sioux City.

In November, the Sioux City Council pledged $2 million and 12 acres at the site of the former John Morrell pork plant, which closed in 2010 and was later demolished. The city’s ag center funding was contingent on pledges of $2 million from Woodbury County and $1 million from MRHD. County officials say they like the concept of the facility, but the challenge is how to come up with the money. At its weekly meeting Tuesday, the county board of supervisors is tentatively scheduled to hear a presentation from ag center leaders.

The city’s application for $14 million in future sales and hotel taxes for the ag center and two big-ticket projects is also indirectly

Men, why is your health important to you?

Men, this is one of the most important questions that will affect both your professional and personal life more than anything else.

Why is your health and wellness important to you?

Did you know that you have the power to control up to 82 percent of your risk factors for developing high blood pressure and cholesterol, heart attack, stroke, diabetes and cancer? My goal for this article is to empower men to take charge of their health and daily lifestyle choices so they can be the best husband, father, grandfather and leader that they can be at work, home, and in the community.

GET ROUTINE PHYSICAL EXAMS AND SCREENINGS

Each year, American men make 150 million fewer doctor visits than women. This occurs across all age groups, education and socioeconomic groups. An American Medical Association (AMA) study concluded that men don’t go to their doctor for a variety of reasons including fear, denial, embarrassment and threats to their masculinity. Don’t let one of these reasons put your health at risk.

Make an appointment for a complete physical exam today, and do this each year. I highly recommend that you do this annually in the fall. If it has been years since you’ve seen your family doctor, don’t wait until the fall; call and schedule your appointment today.

After this appointment, set your physical health goals for the year based on the findings of the exam. Conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart attack, certain cancers, diabetes and sexually transmitted diseases may have no symptoms and can only be diagnosed through an examination.

Your local farmers market offers more than great food Eating locally grown, healthy food is a great step towards improved wellbeing and strengthens your family and community. Local food tastes better and is fresher that food that is shipped long distances. Buying local keeps your money circulating in your community. Knowing where your food comes from and how it is grown or raised has great value. Check out FarmersMarketsiouxcity.com.

Did you know the average supermarket produce travels about 2,000 miles to your neighborhood grocery store? Farmer’s market produce travels less than 50 miles, according to University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension experts who offer these buying tips: • Go directly home from the market. Foods will decline in quality, and perishable foods such as meat and eggs can pose food safety problems if left sitting in your car. Bring along a cooler with

ice if you’ll be more than an hour or so getting perishables into your refrigerator.

• Store bananas, melons, onions, potatoes, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, and winter squash at room temperature. Store them in a clean, dry, well-ventilated place, away from direct sunlight and away from areas where meat is prepared.

• Ripen on the counter and then put in the refrigerator: avocadoes, kiwifruit, nectarines, peaches, pears, and plums. Avoid placing produce in a sealed plastic bag on

your countertop. This slows ripening and may increase odors and decay from the accumulation of carbon dioxide and depletion of oxygen inside the bag.

• Most fruits and vegetables can be stored in the refrigerator. Use your refrigerator crisper drawer for whole produce. Store fruits in a separate refrigerator crisper drawer away from vegetables. Fruits give off ethylene gas, which can shorten the storage life of vegetables. Some vegetables give off odors that can be absorbed by fruits and affect their quality.

• Refrigerate fruits and vegetables in perforated plastic bags to help maintain moisture yet provide airflow. Bags that are not perforated can lead to the growth of mold or bacteria. Make your own: use a sharp object to make several small holes in a food-grade plastic bag (about 20 holes per

medium size bag).

Wash your hands and produce thoroughly. Wash produce before you use it, not when you bring it home. Fresh produce has a natural protective coating that helps keep moisture and freshness. Washing produce before storage causes it to spoil faster.

Remove and discard outer leaves. Rinse under clean running water just before preparing of eating. Don’t use soap or detergent as it can get into produce and make you sick. Rub briskly--scrubbing with a clean brush or hands--to clean the surface. Dry with a clean cloth or paper towel.

Rinse produce even when the peel is removed—such as melons and citrus fruits. Bacteria on the outside of produce can be transferred to the inside when produce is cut or peeled. Once you have cut through the protective skin of fruits and vegetables, bacteria can

enter. Refrigerate cut or peeled fruits and vegetables within 2 hours.

Take your own bags or baskets to the farmers’ market. And be sure to wash them too. Bacteria can grow inside.

Cranking up output Siouxland Ethanol approves $8M expansion to further boost production IAN RICHARDSON

Business Journal staff writer‌

JACKSON, Neb. | When Siouxland Ethanol first fired up its machinery in 2007, the plant had the capacity to produce 50 million gallons of ethanol per year.

Nine years later, as U.S. output of ethanol continues to grow and as alternative blends become increasingly common at gas pumps, the Dakota County plant is ratcheting up production in a big way.

In February, the company completed a push that streamlined its processes, tweaked some ingredients and added some new equipment. As a result, capacity grew from 50 to 65 million gallons per year.

Now, the plant near Jackson, Nebraska is poised to produce even more of the corn-based fuel.

The board of directors on June 20 approved an $8 million that is projected to boost capacity by an additional 15 percent.

“We’re really looking forward to increased production that will help to further lower our costs of production,” board chair Pam Miller said following the meeting.

While Miller said the expansion, which will increased fermentation and other capital expenditures, will not add to the plant’s current staff of 37.

“With better technology and improved technology, we’re able to increase without increasing our number of employees,” she said in an interview in March.

The Siouxland Ethanol board selected SBI General & Mechanical as the general contractor for the project. Miller noted the Waterbury, Nebraska-based business has past experience in the

ethanol industry.

Officials hope to start mobilizing at the site in the next month or two, she said. One of the first steps is applying for necessary permits from the state.

Along with ethanol, the latest expansion will boost the plant’s output of corn oil and distillers grain, which is sold as feed for livestock.

The plant currently produces about 20 million pounds of corn oil and more than 160,000 tons of distiller’s grains per year. It also buys more than 21 million bushels of corn from local farmers.

Siouxland Ethanol’s 24/7 facility is backed by some 700 investors, most living within a 100mile radius of Jackson.

Miller was one of the company founders in 2004. She wrote the business plan, was instrumental in the equity drive held in 2005, and has served on the board since its inception.

tied to the county contributing financially.

The Iowa Economic Development Authority Board has given preliminary approval to Sioux City’s request for funding from the state’s Reinvestment District program, which reinvests increased tax revenues into economic development projects. But at a recent meeting, the IEDA board challenged Sioux City and other applicants to secure more local support from Woodbury County and other local government bodies.

Sioux City’s $72 million Reinvestment District project also includes a new convention center hotel and Virginia Square, a new commercial development led by Ho-Chunk Inc. The MRHD board approved the ag center award at its June 6 meeting. It’s only the second time the nonprofit has pledged $1 million or more for a single project. Last month, the organization announced a $1.25 million gift to the city of Sioux City to help complete its network of riverfront trails.

SIOUX CITY | Mercy Medical Center – Sioux City has announced the appointment of Kristen Ball as manager of post critical and stepdown care.

In her position, Kristen will direct all aspects of Mercy’s critical care stepdown unit and associated

and CEO. He is a former general manager for Platinum Ethanol in Arthur, Iowa, and project developer at Fagen Inc. in Granite Falls, Minnesota.

Under Bowdish’s tenure, Siouxland Ethanol has reduced its cost structure by 17 percent and has increased ethanol production dramatically.

“He is very visionary about where we can go, and he’s driven to make it happen,” Miller said in the March interview. “They have seen our production and our yield go up dramatically since he came on board.”

Spreading the plant’s costs over more gallons of production is important during a time in which market prices for ethanol are relatively steady.

“Ethanol production is

based on a lowest-costproducer model, and we intend to be the lowestcost producer of ethanol in the area,” Miller said in the March interview. “We’re looking to take advantage for our shareholders by increasing production, and it will allow for an increase in the bottom line.”

Revenue in the plant’s 2015 fiscal year, which ended in September, totaled about $10.5 million. That’s a respectable amount, Miller said, in a year following a monster 2014, when the plant brought in $36 million.

“Things are a little bit tighter right now because of the price of ethanol, but it was a positive margin (last year),” she said in the April interview. “We’re able to make money, and we’ll maximize that.”

According to the Renewable Fuels Association, U.S. ethanol plants produced 14.81 billion gallons of ethanol in 2015, up 470 million gallons from 2014. Nebraska

is the nation’s second-largest producer of ethanol behind Iowa.
