Housing and Urban Development Secretary Dr. Ben Carson, left, looks at pictures on a phone held by Christopher McGowan, president of Siouxland Chamber of Commerce, during a reception by the Siouxland Chamber of Commerce in the Russell Senate Office Building in Washington, D.C. on May 3.

Siouxland delegation meets with Carson Housing, workforce topped agenda during lobbying trip JAMES Q. LYNCH

Cedar Rapids Gazette‌

WASHINGTON | Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson endorsed the collaborative approach of a Siouxland delegation to build federal support for its priorities.

Carson told more than 60 tri-state leaders that his mission is to change the agency by “utilizing a holistic approach, working across silos, to develop people and not just buildings.”

The HUD secretary called for more holistic approaches to community needs in housing, health care and education. That fit nicely with the Siouxland Chamber of Commerce’s efforts to work across state lines and boundaries to address community needs.

Carson, who became familiar to Iowans while campaigning across the state as a 2016 GOP presidential hopeful, spoke during the Chamber’s steak reception on May 3 in the Russell Senate office building.

The reception, successor to the Chamber’s traditional steak dinner, was a highlight of the organization’s 63rd annual lobbying trip to the nation’s capitol.

“It’s been a nice day to be in Washington,” said Barbara Sloniker, executive vice president of the Chamber, said on May 2. “Everyone here is talking about health care and taxes,” which are among the Chamber’s priorities.

The need for more workers and housing is expected to become more acute with

The $300 million plant is scheduled to start in July with one shift and at least 1,300 salaried and hourly workers, and expand to nearly 2,000 employees by next spring, with the vast majority expected to be newcomers to the region.

Local leaders are urging federal officials to save two programs the city of Sioux City has relied on

Delegation: FROM PAGE 5 to increase the stock of affordable housing. The Trump administration has put the Community Development Block Grant and the Home Investment Partnership program on the chopping block as part of its proposed budget for the next fiscal year. Both programs are governed by HUD. With unemployment at near-historic lows, many new and expanding employers are struggling to find sufficient numbers of qualified applicants.

In a series of meetings on Capitol Hill, local leaders urged federal decisionmakers to support educational programs to train the next generation of skilled workers.

Given the labor demands of the region, the challenge

is moving unemployed people into the workforce through education and job training, Steve Warnstadt, a former Iowa legislator now with Western Iowa Tech Community College Since Congress ended the practice of earmarks, it has become more difficult to get funding for specific projects, Wa r n s ta d t Warnstadt said. While true, Sloniker said there are policy changes Congress can make that would help with the chamber’s priorities.

Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley introduced Carson at the steak reception, which also attracted Iowa Sen. Joni

Ernst and Iowa 4th District Rep. Steve King and South Dakota Sens. John Thune and Mike Rounds. All told, the delegation meet with its six senators and eight House representatives during the conference, May 2-4.

The trip formally kicked off with an optional tour of the Pentagon. From there, the delegation traveled by bus to a reception hosted by retired Admiral James “Sandy” Winnefeld Jr. and his wife, Mary, at their McLean, Virginia, home.

Mary Winnefeld is the sponsor of the USS Sioux City, an LCS 11 naval ship that is scheduled to be commissioned at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, in the summer of 2018. Winnefeld recently visited Sioux City to

re you aware that our nation’s most abused drug is legal and may be sitting in your medicine cabinet?

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, prescription opioids can be used to treat moderateto-severe pain and are often prescribed following surgery or injury, or for health conditions such as cancer. In recent years, there has been a dramatic increase in the acceptance and use of prescription opioids for the treatment of chronic, non-cancer pain, such as back pain or osteoarthritis, despite serious risks and the lack of evidence about their long-term effectiveness In addressing America’s drug epidemic, The National Safety Council Prescription Nation 2016 wrote, this is the most fatal drug crisis on record in United States history, and too many families and communities are left to suffer in its path. These highly addictive medicines have been incorrectly marketed as the most effective method for treating pain and, subsequently, liberally prescribed. Prescription opioids also serve as gateway drugs to heroin, which has a nearly identical chemical makeup and is cheaper and sometimes easier to obtain. The facts: ■■ More than 259 million opioid prescriptions were written in 2012 ■■ 1.9 million Americans are addicted to opioid painkillers ■■ The U.S. makes up 4.6 percent of the world’s population but consumes 81 percent of the world supply of oxycodone.

■■ 4.3 million adolescents and adults reported non-medical use of prescription opioids in 2014 ■■ 4 out of 5 heroin users started on prescription opioids ■■ According to Prescription Nation 2016 risk factors for opioid addiction are: ■■ Having depression, anxiety or other mental health illness ■■ A personal and/or family history of alcohol or substance drug abuse ■■ A history of physical, mental or sexual abuse ■■ Long term us of opioid pain medications The National Safety Council is committed to ending unintentional injuries and deaths in our lifetime and has been fighting this drug epidemic for years. Key actions include, require and expand prescriber education, develop and implement prescriber guidelines, increase access to naloxone (an overdose antidote) and expand access to treatment.

painkillers from your home, talk with your kids about drugs, and include a discussion of common medications in your home. If you need pain meds, work with your physician to cut back.

If you are dealing with pain keep in mind there are alternative ways to treat pain: Acupuncture works by triggering the body’s natural opioids (endorphins). This may be best for those with back pain.

Meditation can reduce pain by altering activity in four pain-processing areas of the brain. Those who have used meditation long term seem to get less chronic pain in the first place.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps those who suffer learn to correct negative thoughts and behaviors. This therapy can be helpful in reducing the tendency to catastrophize.

Spinal Cord Stimulation, in which an electrode is implanted in the space around the spinal cord, can often help failedback-surgery syndrome, when back surgery has left someone in worse pain .

Deep Brain Stimulation, another invasive procedure, involves putting electrodes in certain brain regions; it has been used for more than 50 years, though researchers are still not clear on exactly how it works.

Most of us have experienced some type of pain in our life and want to avoid this is the future. According to researchers at Northwestern University, those who exercise for at least 30 minutes three times per week are less likely to suffer some types of chronic pain. In addition, those who are very depressed are more likely to suffer from chronic pain, mainly back pain.

If you deal with pain, talk with your doctor about pain medication use and ask if non-drug treatments may be an option for you.

Metro trails full speed ahead Pathway extensions planned in Sioux City, South Sioux City IAN RICHARDSON

Business Journal staff writer‌

SIOUX CITY | The next two years may elicit rejoicing from many Siouxland runners, walkers and cyclists.

That’s because Sioux City currently has nearly a half-dozen trail projects in the works during that time period, planned to provide vital connections between some oft-traveled segments of its trail system.

The projects in Sioux City will join a pair of trail connection projects slated to move forward just across the river in South Sioux City in the next two years.

While the city has in recent years made trail connections a point of focus, parks and recreation officials say the number of trails currently in the works are unprecedented in recent years.

“This will be probably the best year ever for trails in Sioux City,” said Sioux City Parks and Recreation Director Matt Salvatore. “I don’t think we’ll ever see another year where we’ll be doing five to six trails.”

The most anticipated project will be the longawaited connection of two trails along Sioux City’s riverfront. Slated for construction to begin in 2018, the new trail will span the 1.5-mile gap between the Chautauqua Park and Chris Larsen Park trails, establishing 12 miles of continuous trail along the Missouri River.

The $3.3 million project received two significant funding boosts in 2016, benefiting from a $1.25

Maffit

million grant from the Missouri River Historical Development Board in May and a $650,000 grant from the Iowa Transportation Commission in midOctober.

Other connections to be completed this year include the second phase of the Big Sioux River dike trail, which will extend from the Riverside Aquatic Center to Florence Avenue for seventenths of a mile along the riverfront.

On Sioux City’s north side, a nearly half-mile trail piece will connect the Floyd River Trail to the Outerbelt Drive Trail, including a bridge crossing railroad tracks in Leeds.

Another new trail at Sertoma Park will loop around Cone Park, the all-seasons park slated to open in December 2017.

On the other side of Outer Drive, a .18-mile trail near Clark School will connect to the west arm of the Outerbelt Drive Trail.

A privately funded trail expected to be built in upcoming years along Christy Road near the new Summit Apartments, UnityPoint Sunnybrook Medical Plaza and proposed Overlook Development could also undergo construction sometime during the year, Salvatore said.

In South Sioux City, two

trails will add about a mile to the trail system. The first, completely funded

by Nebraska’s federally funded Safe Routes to School program, will connect Covington Elementary School to the city’s trail

system.

South Sioux City Parks and Recreation Director Gene Maffit said the project, slated to begin later this year, brings the city closer to its goal of connecting all schools and

parks to its trail system.

“I think when that project gets done we’ll have only one school that’s not connected,” Maffit said.

A second trail, funded 80 percent by the Nebraska Department of Roads and

20 percent by South Sioux City, will be a lighted trail running from Siouxland Country Estates, crossing U.S. Highway 20 and connecting with existing trail.

That project will begin next year.

Pearl Street Park to add green downtown IAN RICHARDSON

Business Journal staff writer‌

SIOUX CITY | Sioux City’s first downtown park is set to open later this year, thanks to a generous financial contribution from a local donor.

Pearl Street Park will be a half-acre park located at 620 Pearl St. in the space behind the former KCAU Channel 9 building. According to preliminary designs, the park will include green space, trees, a “sensory garden,” seating areas and tables.

The majority of the cost for Roth the park will be financed through a $500,000 donation by Regina Roth, a community leader and co-founder of Dakota Dunes-based Beef Products Inc. During an Oct. 20 news conference announcing the proposed park, Roth said she hoped it would be the first of many “pocket” parks in Sioux City, adding that she believed quality-of-life amenities like green space, bike trails and parks were essential to attracting younger residents.

“When you think about young people coming with their families to look, where do I want to settle, they look

at things like bike trails and parks and green space,” she said.

Parks and Recreation Director Matt Salvatore said he believes the park will become a popular downtown destination for families

and other users. He said its proximity to the LaunchPAD Children’s Museum directly across the street will make it an ideal spot for families.

Its downtown location will also be in the vicinity of Food Truck Fridays and city

offices for those wishing to enjoy an outdoor lunch.

Salvatore said green space downtown has been a priority for several years.

“All great cities have a downtown green space.

It’s something we’ve been

lacking,” he said.

Mayor Bob Scott said he’s glad to have the addition.

“I think it’s a great idea,” Scott said. “I think it’s long overdue that we have green space in our downtown core.”

The city has hired SmithGroupJJR of Madison, Wis., a landscape architect firm, to develop a preliminary design for the park and finetune the concepts. Salvatore said projected completion is Sept. 30.
