HERITAGE
F
rom the early Native Americans to a history bustling with shipping and industry, Douglas County’s heritage is a mosaic of culture, history, nature and industry. The first known inhabitants of Douglas County were known as Mound Builders – indigenous people who mined copper in the Minong Range and at Manitou Falls on the Black River. They pounded this metal into weapons, implements and ornaments, which were later found buried in mounds with their dead. Their civilization was eventually overrun by other tribes and disappeared as a distinct culture in late prehistoric American times. In 1618, Stephen Brulé (a French voyageur who accompanied Samuel de Champlain, the founder of the colony of New France in Canada) coasted along the south shore of Lake Superior, which was home to the Ojibwe people. In 1632, Champlain’s map appeared, showing “Lac Superior de Tracy” as Lake Superior and the lower end shore as “Fond du Lac.” Soon after, fur-trading companies 4
www.superiorchamber.org
established settlements. For more than a century, the Hudson Bay Company, the Northwestern Fur Company and the John Jacob Astor Company maintained trading posts in the region. The entire Wisconsin Territory soon grew with a steady influx of immigrants from England, Scandinavia, Ireland and Germany. In 1848, Wisconsin became the 30th state to join the Union. Douglas County – which lies on one of the major water highways used by early travelers and the French Canadian voyageurs of inland America – helped spur the growth of northern Wisconsin. This water trail, the Bois Brule-St. Croix River Portage Trail, was the most convenient connecting link between Lake Superior and the Mississippi River. The Bois Brule and St. Croix River Systems were only separated by a short portage over the Continental Divide
near Solon Springs, Wisconsin. Northward travelers used this water trail to take them to Lake Superior, while downstream travelers could use it to go southwest to the Gulf of Mexico, unhindered by portages, via the St. Croix and Mississippi Rivers. Spurred by the prospect of a lucrative shipping and iron ore industry, businessmen from Chicago and St. Paul laid claim to the Superior area and plans began for the plotting of a great city. They were eager to develop a railroad from Lake Superior to the Pacific Coast. That goal was later realized through construction of the Northern Pacific Railway, which resulted in the completion of a rail and water highway from coast to coast.
In 1889, the booming settlement at the Head of the Lakes would soon be named the county seat for Wisconsin’s fourthlargest county. Named for Sen. Stephen A. Douglas of Illinois (the famed opponent of Abraham Lincoln), Douglas County would hold pride in its largest city – Superior – and money was pumped into the community’s shipping and railway industries. That pride continues even today. For a wealth of interesting and detailed information on the history and heritage of this area, visit the Douglas County Historical Society at 1101 John Ave. in Superior – or online at www.douglashistory.org.

ndustries like Superior for good reasons. Douglas County has some of the lowest electric rates in the Midwest. Businesses here also take advantage of the state’s lower tax burden; Wisconsin’s corporate income tax, personal income tax, property tax, sales tax and worker compensation rates are lower than its neighboring states. For example, property tax rates in Superior on industrial and commercial real estate are more than 33 percent lower than those in Duluth, Minn. Douglas County also offers a number of economic development incentives, including low interest financing from the Douglas County Revolving Loan Fund, tax credits provided by the State of Wisconsin and tax increment financing incentives and land grants provided by municipalities within the county. We also have a strong transportation infrastructure. Superior is a multimodal transportation hub served by four Class I railroads, several trucking firms, North America’s longest energy pipeline and an international port. Interstate 35 and U.S. Highways 2 and 53, as well as an extensive rail network, connect Douglas County to major metropolitan areas in the upper Midwest and throughout the United States and Canada. Both domestic and foreign vessels visit the Port of Duluth-Superior. Located at the head of the Great Lakes St. Lawrence Seaway, the port is mid-America’s gateway to global trade. It’s the largest volume port on the Great Lakes, and in the U.S., it’s the secondlargest dry bulk port.

Our diverse manufacturing base continues to grow and includes: Calumet Superior (oil refinery); Fraser Shipyards Inc. and its subsidiaries, Northern Engineering (new construction and repair of maritime vessels) and Lake Assault Boats (designs and builds specialized aluminum watercraft); Genesis Attachments (industrial shears and grapples); AMSOIL Inc. (synthetic motor oil and lubricants); Charter NEX Films (plastic films); FeraDyne Outdoors (innovative hunting industry products); Fen-Tech (vinyl products including windows, doors and fences); Barko Hydraulics (equipment for forestry professionals); and Peterson Wood Treating Inc. (treated wood products for the building industry). And our industrial base is growing. Kestrel Aircraft (which merged with Eclipse Aerospace of New Mexico in 2015, creating ONE Aviation) plans to build two facilities in Superior to produce a new line of turbo-prop “air taxis.” Exodus Machines has expanded its facilities through a partnership with Caterpillar to produce a new line of heavy-duty materials handling equipment. Epicurean – which manufactures kitchen utensils and cutting boards for the food service industry and for retail sale – moved from Duluth to Superior in 2016 to double its production space.
As well as investing in its employees, FeraDyne Outdoors continues investing in its facilities, which has also benefitted the area’s construction industry. “We continue to invest in our facilities to support our long-term growth initiatives. In the past 12 months, since moving to Superior, we have invested over $1,400,000 in our facilities, benefiting the local firms that have completed the work, as well as our employees,” Seyfert noted. “We are preparing for continued growth in our company and need to ensure that our facilities, people and processes are ready for our next level of growth. 2016 was a year of investment and preparation, and we expect
The AMSOIL Center in Superior houses the central warehouse and distribution center, serving as the hub of a global distribution network.
“FeraDyne Outdoors chose to relocate its headquarters to Superior for a variety of reasons,” said Chief Executive Officer Todd Seyfert. “First was the area [residents’] love of the outdoors and the rich heritage of hunting in the region. We wanted to locate to an area where people could mix their passion for the outdoors with their work. In addition, we wanted to ensure we could hire employees that could relate to the products they made and ensure that our high level of quality is maintained throughout the manufacturing process. Finally, we wanted to find a community where we could have an impact from an employment perspective – be a partner with the local city, county and state agencies and earn the community’s respect as an employer of choice through our actions.” For Seyfert and his business, relocating the company’s headquarters was the right move to make. “We are proud of our employees and the impact they have made during our relocation and transition. Anytime you move a facility, you risk the loss of knowledge within your operations. Our new employees have risen to the challenge of the work, continued to bring new ideas and ways of doing things and are focused on the long-term success of the business – which, in turn, leads to their own success,” said Seyfert. “We have many employees that have risen from within the company to new positions and we continue to invest in those who wish to invest in themselves. As we continue to grow and expand, we understand we cannot be successful without great employees. We are proud of the work we have accomplished together and look forward to the local workforce being a part of our continued growth.”

2017 and 2018 to be the years where we leverage those investments into growth.” Regarding his perspectives on even more potential for economic growth, Seyfert said, “I believe the prospects for the Superior area’s growth and success are strong. We need to ensure that the local business community and government agencies con-
tinue to forge strong relationships, built on open communication, to ensure the identification of obstacles – and the joint resolution of those obstacles that could slow growth or development in the area. I have been impressed with the support of the local city, county and state agencies and their willingness to meet, talk, listen and then
help with meaningful input to the topics of discussion. It is the foundation needed to ensure that businesses feel they have a voice – and an advocate – to help with any issues or opportunities that arise.” Chief Scientist Doug Stetzer of Kent Precision Foods also believes that the business environment in Superior is supportive. “The things that attracted me to the Superior business community are the wide variety of resources. We have tremendous leaders in this community that are eager and willing to help a startup business,” Stetzer said. “From the banking commu-

nity to the trades to our city fathers, the support for our company has been great. Also, there are fantastic natural resources all around the Twin Ports. This makes for a great place to raise a family and attract young talent to the area. Primarily, though, for our company, the proximity to excellent educational resources is vital for our
success. We draw talented employees from UW-Superior and other local universities, as well as utilize those universities in our research. Superior really has been a great place for us to grow our business. “Our [thickening] product literally helped change the way dysphagia [swallowing problems] is treated,” Stetzer said. “We

produce the best product on the market, hands down. Other large companies are trying to catch up to our technology. That is a direct reflection on our workforce; we couldn’t ask for a more dedicated and devoted workforce.” Staff positions at Kent Precision Foods’ Superior facility range from frontline manufacturers to scientists who research new product development, as well as employees who manage quality assurance procedures. “This year we will be investing in our infrastructure here at our Superior facility,” Stetzer said. “We will be installing new equipment to help expand on our current product lines as well as produce newly developed products. “I believe Superior’s economic growth will be tied to the growth of our university and technical college, as well as what

I sense is a renewed atmosphere of businesses working together to help grow the economy,” he said. “We’ve seen some great new companies come in and grow here in the last few years. The university has seen increased enrollment. We see expansion of existing businesses such as Enbridge and Calumet. I think all of these things are creating the ‘perfect storm’ for growth and success here in Superior.” Superior Region Director Trent Wetmore of Enbridge concurs with Stetzer’s viewpoint on Superior’s growth prospects. “We are as invested in the people and communities of this region as we are the pipelines and terminals we operate. We are pleased to be a strong, long-term partner in Superior and Douglas County and we are excited about the economic outlook of this community,” Wetmore said.
Enbridge has been an energy powerhouse in this region – and far beyond – for decades. “The company has been delivering energy since 1949 on what was originally referred to as the Lakehead System,” explained Wetmore. “About 20 percent of total U.S. petroleum imports arrives via Enbridge’s Lakehead System through Superior. Enbridge keeps the refineries in Wisconsin, Minnesota and around the Great Lakes running by providing crude oil to meet their daily refining needs. We are proud of the work we do and many of our employees are proud to say they’ve always lived here. They love it here.” The energy industry is demanding and complex, which is why Enbridge values the quality of its workforce.
“We are fortunate to have some of the most dedicated, well trained employees in the pipeline industry,” said Wetmore. “Enbridge employs nearly 400 people in Wisconsin. Our workforce at the Superior Terminal alone includes more than 50 full-time Enbridge employees. Recent projects provided 500 family-sustaining construction jobs for trained and highlyskilled workers throughout the state of Wisconsin. “Through recent projects, Enbridge has invested nearly $1.5 billion in statewide infrastructure development, and continues to benefit local communities through increased economic activity along our right-of-way,” Wetmore noted “In addition, Enbridge provides nearly $29 million in annual property tax revenues to the state of Wisconsin.”

EDUCATION uperior-Douglas County education leaders are committed to providing the highest level of education for both the youth and adult populations. We have excellent public, private and parochial schools located in the area and are very proud to have the University of Wisconsin-Superior (UW-Superior) and Wisconsin Indianhead Technical College (WITC) located in Superior. The Twin Ports area is also home to The University of Minnesota Duluth, a public university, The College of St. Scholastica, a private Catholic Benedictine college, and Lake Superior College, a two-year community college. UW-Superior is Wisconsin’s leading public liberal arts college and offers undergraduate and graduate programs. A student-tofaculty ratio of 16-to-1 provides students with a personalized educational experience and excellent access to professors, technology and activities. Swenson Hall, a $32 million academic building, was completed in 2011. UW-Superior Yellowjacket athletic teams compete in one of the country’s most challenging NCAA Division III conferences. Athletic facilities include the Marcovich Health & Wellness Center with a gymnasium, field house, indoor track, fitness center,

weight room, swimming pool and training room. The campus also offers Wessman Arena for hockey, as well as an outdoor track, baseball field and soccer field. Looking for a technical college education? WITC offers a combination of skill development and quality technical education provided by top-notch faculty. WITC’s Superior Campus offers more than 100 career programs and certificates, as well as labs with up-todate technologies for hands-on-experience – a key component of a technical education. WITC also provides flexible workforce training, technical assistance and customized training for businesses. Douglas County has three school districts: Superior, Maple and St. Croix. The Superior District has one high school, one middle school and six elementary schools. The Maple School District includes the high school, middle school and two elementary schools. St. Croix has both a high school and elementary school.
We have excellent faith-focused schools in Superior-Douglas County as well, including a prekindergarten through 8th-grade Catholic education at Cathedral School, prekindergarten through 12th-grade Protestant-based Maranatha Academy and the prekindergarten through 12th-grade Twin Ports Baptist School. We also have a community of education leaders who are entirely dedicated to their students’ success. SUPERIOR SCHOOL DISTRICT “The School District of Superior continues to thrive with excellence in academic achievement, activities and sports as well as in meeting the needs of all learners,” said Superior School District Administrator Janna Stevens. “This is accomplished through deep dedication by all staff and a community that believes in the importance of education. Our district has a strong reputation for providing effective professional development to continue to sharpen our skills to meet the needs of all learners.” The main reason for the school district’s continued educational excellence is the proficiency and dedication of its teachers and staff. “I am very proud of all staff members in the School District of Superior,” said Stevens. “Every single employee plays a role in the success of our organization. Every single
employee believes in our mission, which is to ‘Provide all children with the relevant tools to develop a foundation for living, learning and working successfully.’ We work very well together and we support each other.” Stevens is both pleased and excited about progress the School District of Superior made in 2016, as well as plans for 2017 and beyond. “The School District of Superior’s undertaking from 2016-2019 will be building a new Cooper Elementary School, a major renovation to Superior High School and many enhancements to all of our buildings,” she said. These projects are also strongly supported by area residents, who voted to approve them in a referendum. The new and improved Superior School District school facilities will not only serve students, teachers and other district staff well; they’re an investment in the community. Businesses in the Superior area, as well as across Northwest Wisconsin, will need more skilled, professional employees in view of a continuing wave of retirements within the baby boomer generation. Good schools are crucial to help attract and retain the skilled employees businesses want and need. The Superior School District’s facilities improvements – as well as its staff ’s dedication to helping students excel - is an outstanding selling point on why Superior is a desirable place to live. Stevens noted that voters in Superior are also supportive of initiatives that support the business community. “I am thrilled with the recent passage of the referendum on the Better City Superior initiative,” she said, referencing this effort by officials from the City of Superior, Douglas County, the Chamber and the Superior Business Improvement District, as well as leaders from the business community, to spearhead business growth. These leaders are urging legislators to pass legislation allowing for the establish-
ment of a local exposition district (similar to those already established in Wisconsin communities including La Crosse, Green Bay, Madison and Milwaukee) in Superior. An advisory referendum held in November 2016 clearly indicated that area residents are behind this initiative. “Seventy-five percent voter approval – outstanding! With the community support of our School District building referendum and now the support of the city referendum [on Better City Superior], it is clear people believe Superior can be a destination city,” said Stevens. WISCONSIN INDIANHEAD TECHNICAL COLLEGE Vice President-Academic Affairs and Campus Administrator Bonny Copenhaver of Wisconsin Indianhead Technical College’s Superior Campus moved to Superior in 2013 from Lynchburg, Tenn., when she accepted her position at WITC. And she believes that not only is WITC good for Superior, but that Superior is good for WITC. “Superior is an excellent place for WITC, because we live in a community that supports education at all levels,” she explained. “WITC works with many local partners to improve the educational attainment of the citizens and to provide targeted and specific training needs for businesses and industries.” In fact, the college works with regional businesses and industries on a regular and collaborative basis. “WITC contributes to the quality of the workforce in Superior by ensuring that our programs teach current technology and practice,” said Copenhaver. “WITC faculty are in constant contact with hiring businesses and industries to validate the content of our programs. Based on the

[WITC] 2015 Graduate Follow-Up Survey, 95 percent are employed after graduation – and 75 percent work in Wisconsin, with 65 percent employed within the 11-county WITC service area.” Wisconsin Indianhead Technical College – just like the Superior School District – is also dedicated to providing students and teachers with facilities and high-tech learning tools to provide comprehensive, handson learning experiences. “The WITC Superior Campus just completed over a $4 million renovation to its facility,” Copenhaver said. “The campus
14
www.superiorchamber.org
has new labs for welding, machine tool and HVAC/R, as well as a new simulation lab for the nursing program. Additional classrooms and new offices for faculty and administration completed the project.” Based on her experiences as the WITC Superior Campus administrator, as an enthusiastic community volunteer and as a resident of the city she’s pleased to call home, Copenhaver, too, is bullish about the area’s prospects for continued growth. “Superior will continue to grow and succeed because of the dedicated people who want to see this community be a success,” she said.
Chancellor Renee Wachter of the University of Wisconsin-Superior also values the Superior-Douglas County region because of the supportive and appreciative environment it provides for academic learning, including UW-Superior. “Superior is a community that values the opportunities that education can provide. It works with the university to design programs to benefit the local workforce and address community issues, as well as providing opportunities for our students to gain experience to make them ready to enter the world of work and graduate school,” said Wachter. “The community of Superior is a key partner in what we do. From our businesses, to our nonprofits, to other educational institutions, to the city and county – we work together for our mutual success.”
Whether students are from the Superior-Duluth area, Northwest Wisconsin, other states or other countries, they have chosen UW-Superior because they know they will receive excellent, comprehensive education and training to prepare them for the careers they’ve chosen. Along with fostering and nurturing career preparation and intellectual growth, UW-Superior emphasizes respect for multiple voices and diverse cultures – along with individual attention to assist each student. With a total of about 2,600 enrolled students, the student to faculty ratio is 16-to-1. “Passion for excellence and work ethic are the hallmarks of our employees. There is a tremendous sense of stewardship and pride in serving the community and our students,” said Wachter. She is pleased about UW-Superior’s symbiotic relationship with the community – a relationship of mutual cooperation to support bright futures for both students and the city of Superior. “In addition to our Center for Continuing Education and Outreach, we’ve launched a Center for Community Engagement,” she said. “It means we’re more able than ever to partner with local businesses and community agencies to provide assistance and collaborate on research to solve business issues
and address community needs. We’ve also added programs to address needs such as sustainability, transportation and logistics, data management and health and wellness. “Superior has such a bright future. There is a real commitment by all sectors – government, educational, health and business – to see our area grow and prosper by working together,” noted Wachter. “Increasingly, there is collaboration across agencies to address issues, to support workforce development, to create opportunity and to craft an energetic environment in which to work and play.” SCHOOL DISTRICT OF MAPLE The town of Maple lies just 22 miles east of Superior, nestled among gentle hills and scenic countryside. This community is just a short drive from Superior, one of its Northwestern Wisconsin neighbors. “Superior is a good place to thrive, because parents can choose to live in the rural area – such as Maple/Northwestern – and still have access to a large city that has the retail, culture, housing and jobs a larger city provides,” said School District of Maple Superintendent Sara Croney. “The rural area provides high academic schools with lower

Privacy, lakes, forests, hunting and fishing are in your back yard.” Croney appreciates the community of Maple’s enthusiastic support for student learning and student activities. And she’s proud of the school district staff. “We are pleased with our work force quality because our academic test scores prove that three of our four schools ‘Meet Expectations’ with scores higher than the state average – and our Northwestern Middle School scores at ‘Exceed Expectations,’” she said, referencing Wisconsin’s statewide School and District Report Cards, which are issued by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction. “This school year, we implemented a new 4K- 12 Reading Language Arts curriculum and K-12 Math Curriculum that our teachers have determined will meet our students’ needs even more,” said Croney. “Coming early to prepare lessons or to work with students – and staying late to coach or be an adviser for other student activities, like the drama, musical or the dance team
– are part of the Maple staff work ethic. Our teachers care about our students, and many are products of our schools who have returned to raise their families here.” New this year, she said, “is an increased focus on assisting students who need more help – encouraging students who are gifted and talented and making connections for students to college- and career-ready opportunities. ‘Career Cruising,’ a computer software program, is being implemented where students have an opportunity to check out what education is necessary for careers of their interest.” Croney also said the school district is pleased about support from the area business community, noting that the School District of Maple worked with the Iron River Chamber of Commerce to put on a Career Fair for students grades 7-12 in early February. Businesses from Douglas County and Bayfield County, in addition to area colleges, were invited to participate. “Prospects for Superior and Douglas County economic growth are potentially a slow, steady growth if we can all do a bet-

Expansion for the younger work force will depend on social media for economic growth.”

HOUSING & REAL ESTATE hrough a four-tier plan, City of Superior officials are working to generate more housing development and construction, including: facilities for seniors who love Superior and want to stay here after selling their homes; options for young professionals; more multiuse properties; and developing more single-family subdivisions and suburban home sites. Jason Serck, the City of Superior’s economic development, planning and port director, is a key official working on the city’s plan to bring more of those desired housing options to Superior. “The outlook is very positive, but we have some work to do. From the city’s standpoint, facilitating better housing options at all levels continues to be our goal,” he said. “We want people that work here to be able to find housing in our community. We have made a very small dent over the last couple of years, but we need to continue to work with developers on market rate rental options.” Progress has already been made. The new Grand Central Plaza, featuring 50 senior apartments with attractive amenities, opened in June 2015. Work on another housing development began in 2016: Cottages of Superior, a mixed-income project in south Superior. The hiring needs of businesses and industries drive the region’s economy, as well as housing demand, and Serck views the Superior area’s workforce as an asset.

“Superior has a long history of producing a quality workforce, which is the backbone of our economic successes. One thing that resonates with our industrial sectors is how the Superior workforce collectively shows up for work, works hard and is loyal,” he said, noting that it’s common for Superior businesses to have low turnover, thanks to their long-standing employees. “Those are huge qualities that a lot of my economic development peers are envious of. I would be remiss to not give credit to all levels of our educational institutions that help train these workers and are flexible enough to alter programs for different industries.
“Retail recruitment will continue to be the City’s economic development focus for the next year,” said Serck. “It is our hope to attract viable users of our very large and high-profile empty storefronts. Retail recruitment is not easy, but it is up to the City’s economic development partners to provide retail developers with positive information and data about Superior and Douglas County.” Maria Letsos, the owner of Northland Rental Resource (NRR) as well as a Realtor at RE/MAX 1, is a housing market professional who has a keen knowledge and understanding of what her

Our in-office support staff coordinates with customers, fields tenant concerns, assists property owners and markets our properties across a broad range of media,” she said. “We also have an impressive construction team that handles renovations and major repairs. The team has years of experience working with turn of the cen-
clients want and need – and why they want to live in the Superior area. She also tracks the area’s business growth trends, since they impact her profession. “The Twin Ports region offers ample opportunities for jobs, education and recreation. The beauty and industry of the area draws a large population of people looking to live and work in a highly active, outdoors community,” Letsos said. “There is considerable rental housing need for people who are relocating, attending college, staying short-term for contract work or wanting to explore the area before making a home purchase. Many people work and live on either side of the bridge [con-
tury homes that require special attention in preservation and modernization.” Whether clients are growing families that need a larger home, young professionals seeking a care-free apartment or seniors who’d like to sell their homes and move to one of the area’s new assisted living facilities, Letsos can help, thanks to her expertise as both a Realtor and as NNR’s owner. “We are exploring new technologies to enhance the rental finding experience for prospective tenants. We are also looking at offering new management packages for property owners to maximize customization, based on specific needs,”
she said. “NRR continues to flourish in the property improvement and remodeling segment of our company. Our contemporary remodel style and meticulous work performance has us booked out months in advance. We took on new staff to keep up with demand and are always looking for new team members and office support staff. We are undergoing an office expansion on Belknap Street and we look forward to a grand opening in early spring 2017.” Letsos is also enthusiastic about the Superior area’s potential for continued growth. “I am very excited about the vision for Superior.

HOUSING & REAL ESTATE THE BEST REASONS TO OWN OR RENT REAL ESTATE IN SUPERIOR AND DOUGLAS COUNTY 4. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION Here are just a few of the many great reasons to live in Superior and its surrounding area: Lake Superior; 20 city and state parks nearby (including Amnicon Falls, Pattison, Brule River); outdoor recreation (hiking, ATV, snowmobile and ski trails, biking, fishing and boating); colleges, high schools, middle schools and elementary schools close by; the convenience of a city with the tranquility of the country; tourist attractions and museums; eclectic restaurant, pub and shopping options. 5. RESILIENT MARKET In the past 25 years or so, Superior and Douglas County have proven that a real estate investment has overall been a wise decision. Purchasing real estate is a very safe, sound investment in our area – and it always has been. 1. AFFORDABILITY While historically we haven’t been a market that has enjoyed extreme appreciation, we also don’t suffer from severe depreciation – we stay pretty darn steady. 2. VARIETY Since Superior’s founding, there have been everything from Colonials and traditional two-story homes to ranch-style and bungalow homes in our area – occupied by everybody from your average Joe to ship captains to U.S. presidents. Our charming historical homes are full of character with amenities like hardwood floors, natural woodwork, double staircases, fireplaces and even widow walks. And new townhome developments are in the works. When it comes to homes, we have something for everyone. 3. THE RENTAL MARKET Our area’s diverse rental options range from efficiency apartments to fiveto-six-bedroom homes. If you’re a student wanting to live off-campus, there are many homes available for rent annually around the University of Wisconsin-Superior campus. It’s truly an affordable, beautiful place to live.

6. STRONG FINANCIAL PARTNERS We have banks, credit unions and mortgage lenders. Our local financial institutions have money to lend, and they love to lend it on real estate. Furthermore, our banks and credit unions didn’t participate in the “don’t ask, don’t tell” mortgage underwriting practices of the past that hurt so many Americans in the Great Recession that started in 2008. They’ve always been stand-up lenders who support the communities they serve. 7. JOBS This is where Superior and Douglas County shine. We’re proud and excited of our expanding job market, thanks to our expanding businesses, in addition to other companies moving here. We are very fortunate to have aggressive city, county and state governments; they work tirelessly to bring new employers and business expansions to our community. 8. FOUR SEASONS Experience the unique beauty of spring, summer, fall and winter here; you won’t want to miss any of them.
come the Better City Superior initiative, the street project and downtown renovation,” she said. “I would envision the waterfront on Highway 2 developed into a fisherman’s wharf type of attraction to include development on the abandoned piers, currently unused.
“Shops, restaurants, music and entertainment venues and other business to promote tourism. It could be a great opportunity to bring more tourism into our community, resulting in greater economic growth,” said Letsos. She also noted that demand is high for new home construction in both the city of Superior and in nearby towns.

The Human Development Center (HDC) offers comprehensive outpatient mental health, addiction and chemical use treatment at the Jill Marcovich Bachinski Building, located at 1500 N. 34th St., directly behind St. Mary’s Hospital of Superior. The professional therapists and medical staff at HDC serve people of all ages and new patients are welcome. In addition to Douglas County in Wisconsin, HDC serves four counties in northeastern Minnesota. HDC’s wide array of services include everything from outpatient chemical dependency treatment to children’s therapeutic services and support, and from adult rehabilitative mental health services
For all these reasons, residents can easily access the medical and mental health services they need. The St. Luke’s Mariner Medical Clinic & Urgent Care, owned and operated by St. Luke’s Hospital in Duluth, provides primary and prenatal care, as well as specialty care services. Located at 109 N. 28th St. E., the clinic’s services and specialties include: cardiology, clinical nutrition, colonoscopy, diabetes care, diagnostic imaging, endoscopy, family medicine, gastroenterology, general surgery, laboratory services, mammography, obstetrics/gynecology, occupational medicine, ophthalmology, orthopedics and sports medicine, outpatient surgery,

pediatrics, physical therapy and ulstrasound. Other visiting specialty services from St. Luke’s-Duluth are also provided here. In addition, the clinic provides urgent care services daily from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Health-care professionals who treat patients at the clinic include Lauren Giammar, MD, Mega Hoel, DO, Brian Riddle, MD, Sonja Swenson, MD, who are all Family Medicine-Board Certified, and John Yoon, MD, who is Ophthalmology-Board Certified. The clinic is available to serve families in Superior – so they can receive
treatment and care right in their own hometown – and surrounding communities and is close to the University of Wisconsin-Superior. In fact, it has served generations of families. St. Luke’s is very proud of its skilled and compassionate workforce at the Mariner Medical Clinic & Urgent Care. Many employees have worked at the clinic for years; some of them have helped care for patients ever since it opened in 1988. They live the St. Luke’s “The Patient. Above All Else”® motto every day. Many employees also participate in events, activities and fundraisers that support and enhance the community – from serving on boards of directors to participating in farmer’s markets to cleaning up the shoreline of Lake Superior. They’re proud of the community of Superior, as well as their clinic. Another outstanding health-care provider is Essentia Health St. Mary’s Hospital and Superior Clinic. Administrator and Vice President Terry Jacobson believes strongly that the Superior area is a great place to live and work. “Superior is a great place to be for so many reasons. We are blessed with a wonderful natural environment to work and play in, and our community is very family-friendly,” he said. “People here have access to all of the building blocks that we need for support and growth – education, health care, social services – and we are networked with larger systems that we can readily access. “Essentia-Superior, for example, offers a number of primary care and specialty care services right here in Superior,

of specialized training, ranging from advanced medical degrees to technical training in any given area of expertise,” Jacobson said. “Staff not only come to us with a solid educational foundation, but are also committed to an environment of continuous learning. The educational system in and near Superior offer a number of ways for staff to augment their clinical experience, both in person and online. The end result is a quality, stable and knowledgeable workforce, which is fundamental in providing great care. “In addition to having a solid and knowledgeable workforce, we need to have great places for our staff to provide – and our patients to receive – great care. To that end, we have made a number of investments in our infrastructure on our
along with two pharmacies and a convenient care service. If these services don’t meet your immediate needs, we are connected to tertiary services just moments away,” Jacobson noted. Essentia Health understands how important it is – for both residents and workforces employed by local businesses and industries – to access expert, comprehensive health care services. “We have nearly 300 Essentia staff that work at our Superior locations, and each of our colleagues has some form

Superior campus which will serve us well in the future,” said Jacobson. He noted that in 2016, “Essentia chose Superior to be a pharmacy ‘hub’ for a number of our patients in the greater Wisconsin and Minnesota area by creating a Pharmacy Distribution Center. Any Essentia patient from Deer River to Spooner – and places in between – that requires a long-term regular or specialty pharmacy service will have those needs met through the Distribution Center located right here in Superior. Also, by the end of this year, we expect to bring a new CT scanner online, providing state-ofthe-art diagnostic imaging to our patients.” Jacobson believes the future is bright for the Superior area’s economic growth

and success. “We are eternally optimistic – and for good reason,” he said. “In the past few years, we have recruited a number of new providers – both physicians and advance practice clinicians – that came here for the work environment, but choose to stay here because of the great quality of life we have to offer. We’ve been impressed not only with the skills of our new staff, but also with their engagement in a number of activities outside of work that add to the vibrancy of our community.” For more than two decades, the health care professionals at the Center for Muscle & Joint Therapy Inc. in Superior have helped patients heal and regain
their strength – so they can get back to work (and back to enjoying the recreational activities they love).

HEALTH CARE “A real need in the Duluth/Superior area is support of the athletic teams to promote activity for our younger population,” Rauzi said. “Another ice rink, indoor soccer field/football field/baseball field could provide another option to keep our kids healthy and bring more people and money into the city. Downtown Superior is now a beautiful area for new businesses to thrive. The location in the north end of the city provides an opportunity to pull patrons from Duluth. A store like Cabela’s, or the like, would be a great draw from all over the area.” The Center for Muscle & Joint Therapy Inc.
“The City of Superior and the people of Superior fully support their local businesses, which makes Superior a great place to have a business,” she said. “The sense of community is strong in Superior and the outlying communities. Word of mouth advertising provides an opportunity to always focus on the customer and constantly beat their expectations. The Chamber of Commerce is extremely supportive and will assist in any challenges you may have as a business. Their connections draw businesses together to form a great support group.” Throughout the past two decades, the Center for Muscle & Joint Therapy has treated many people employed by area businesses and industries – and
has added more services, too. “Over the past year, we have expanded our Industrial Support Model to provide more ‘Wellness in Your Workplace . . . Tools for Life.TM®’ support,” said Rauzi. “We continue to provide all types of physical therapy services to include pre-surgical care, post-surgical care, injuries rehab, sprains and strains, dry needling, etc. But we also strive to provide wellness and injury prevention support to employers and workers, so they can avoid injury and remain healthy at work, happy at home.” Naturally, the Center for Muscle & Joint Therapy staff promotes and encourages exercise as a vital component of overall health.

anks, credit unions, business banking, financial planning, investments, loans, mortgage services, retirement planning and personal lending – our area provides an outstanding array of financial services for businesses and residents alike. And the leaders and employees of these financial institutions live and work here – just like the customers and members they serve. In addition to providing outstanding financial services, they donate their talents, their time and generous financial contributions to support many community organizations and events. For that reason, they’re truly invested in the community. Just ask them. “Superior has some solid drivers of its base economy, remarkably underutilized quality of life natural resource assets, excellent educational opportunities – and great potential to be attractive to working families, the millennial generation and future employers,” said Community Bank President Bruce Thompson of National Bank of Commerce. He noted that the four main drivers of education for the workforce based in Superior and the surrounding area are of 32

Generations of Superiorites have built and remodeled ships, managed world cargos and critical national oil transportation, storage and refining interests,” Thompson said. “The steady and reliable accountability of our workforce is something to be really proud of. I can best describe it simply as ‘Superior Works!’”
National Bank of Commerce (NBC) has been serving businesses and residents across Northwest Wisconsin and Northeastern Minnesota for more than 80 years, so it truly understands – and is focused on – this region and its economic health. For that reason, NBC officers and community leaders who serve on its board of directors believe it’s important to help facilitate and support business growth. For instance, NBC initiated a Regional Economic Indicators Forum study to help chart a roadmap to the future in the Superior-Douglas County region. It teamed up with powerhouse of experts from the University of Wisconsin-Superior, The Development Association, the Area Partnership for Economic Expansion (APEX), the University of Minnesota-Duluth and The College of

Hundreds of businesspeople and community leaders attend quarterly breakfasts to benefit from presentations on the study results, which are designed to: • Support business owners in their business decisions by gathering key local economic indicators and trend information • Develop specific economic indicators for this region that are not readily available to decision makers • Develop tools to assess our progress in economic growth and prepare baseline measures that will allow comparison with other regions and measure future progress of the region • Track the region’s participation in the “new economy” and development in the high-tech arena • Bring professionals together with business owners for discussion about the local economy and related critical issues in a collaborative, non-political environment • Create a business recruitment and retention tool by publishing the information. “National Bank of Commerce continues to look for opportunities to grow in the region because this is our home, and we want to provide modern banking
services to as much of the local market as possible,” said Thompson. “Our bank shares the same values as our clients because we are their friends and neighbors. We are not a remote corporation taking profits out of the area – but a local one that reinvests in our area.

be capable of high quality customer interaction. The bank’s officers and mid-level employees possess considerable banking knowledge and customer service skills.” Superior Savings Bank continues enhancing its services and facilities to serve customers. In 2015, it established the first stand-alone full service ATM in Superior, located on South Tower Avenue. In the fall of 2016, a second location on East Second Street opened. “These facilities are called “QwikBank” and are capable of providing most of the services that a customer would find at the teller counSuperior Choice Credit Union locations in Superior include the Tower Avenue Office (2817 Tower Ave.) and Shoreline Office (2302 E.

“Because of the stable economy in Superior and Douglas County, it is an excellent place for Superior Savings Bank to thrive,” she said. “Superior Savings Bank was founded in Superior in 1924. It is a community bank, established to serve the people of Superior and Douglas County. SSB is not a branch of a large banking organization headquartered in a distant city. The bank enjoys a great local market share consisting of loyal customers in our community.” That customer loyalty has been earned through decades of great service from the bank’s employees. “The hiring practices at Superior Savings Bank center around locating the most qualified individuals for delivering the best customer service,” said Staples. “The bank’s entry-level hires don’t necessarily need to have banking experience; we can provide that training.

Staples noted that most of the bank’s home loan business comes through referrals from satisfied home loan customers. She is pleased about economic and business trends she’s
observed in this region. “Superior and Douglas County have a strengthening economy driven by the construction industry, in addition to the establishment of new small- and medium-sized businesses,” said Staples. “These companies provide great employment opportunities for those living in the community. During the real estate downturn a few years ago, Superior and Douglas County experienced a lesser decline in values in comparison to many communities in the nation.

TRANSPORTATION Halvor Lines is a trucking, transportation and logistics company that delivers products across the continental United States and Canada.
t the University of Wisconsin-Superior, Dr. Richard Stewart heads up the Transportation and Logistics Management Program in the Department of Business and Economics. That department is also home to UW-Superior’s Transportation and Logistics Research Center and supports the Small Business Development Center and the Northern Center for Community and Economic Development. Stewart has led the program since 1999. So if you want to talk to someone in Superior about the diverse methods through which products and materials are transported into and out of this region to points around the globe, he’s a great, go-to source. Indeed, along with his role as an professor for the program’s students, Stewart also advises businesses that are interested in the area’s transportation abilities and assets in shipping, railroads, trucking and aviation. That’s why he has such comprehensive expertise and perspectives on why the Superior/Douglas area is a dynamic, flexible and efficient place to do business. “One of the benefits of locating in the Twin Ports region is that you have immediate access to truck transportation in the form of access on Interstate 35, U.S. Highway 53 and U.S. Highway 2,” Stewart said. “So you could go east, west or north-south along main transportation corridors by truck. You can also transport by rail and you connect to three Class I railroads. We also bring in raw materials by marine transportation.” In fact, Stewart says the only other Wisconsin city that is serviced by railroads to a comparable level is Milwaukee. “Size is important, in some respects, but you need transportation corridors in order to monopolize on that,” noted Stewart. “We have the capability if the producer needs to airfreight their products out. We can air-freight products via small parcel carrier services such as FedEx directly out of the Duluth International Airport, or we can air-freight by smaller planeload out of the Bong Airport [in Superior]. You can also bring in raw materials such as petroleum products or natural gas and convert them to, say, liquefied natural gas or refine them into other products and ship them out by rail, truck or marine. “This region is served by all five modes of transportation,” Stewart explained. As a result, the area boasts experts in every conceivable area of transportation who can assist any given business with the processes that are necessary to get their products to market. 38
www.superiorchamber.org
“When you create what’s called a ‘transportation/logistics cluster,’ you want knowledgeable expertise,” Stewart said. “You want to be able to talk to a freight forwarder. Well, we have freight forwarders here. We clear customs here – we have customs brokers. We have many companies who ship. We have railroad experts. We have trucking experts. We have logistics companies such as Halvor Logistics Services. “If you’re in the business of making widgets, that’s your core business. You would like to be able to reliably and cost-competitively outsource your transportation,” Stewart said. He noted that even for companies that may have their own transportation directors, the Superior area can offer resources and assistance from many experts in the field, “because no one person knows everything about each of the five [transportation] modes. And by having a transportation/ logistics cluster in this area which has been built up over decades, you have access to knowledge that is critically important. You also have access to transportation professionals as a source of labor, which is always critical in any company being set up. “The other components that you have to talk about if you’re thinking of moving to do business here,” Stewart continued, “is access to relatively inexpensive fuel – energy. And because we have pipelines coming in, transmission lines – we’re putting millions and millions of gallons of fuel into ships and
Dr. Richard Stewart, University of Wisconsin-Superior.
trains – we’re an energy hub, too. The only refinery in Wisconsin is here.” Stewart added that this can result in lower energy prices, depending on the type of energy being used. “One of the areas that I’ve been exploring for a few years and I’m very fascinated by is in the international market,” Stewart said. “We are astride of CN’s main rail line, which – if you look at it – goes all the way from Mobile and New Orleans through Superior and on to Prince Rupert or to Vancouver or to Halifax. That gives us access to markets not only [across] the breadth of Canada, but also – because Prince Rupert is a major container port – access to the China market for both selling and buying. And it’s about three days closer by ship to China from Prince Rupert than it is from Long Beach, California. So all things being equal, we can get our products to market sooner. “Let’s take a company that manufactures poultry products that is located a hundred miles from Superior,” Stewart posited. “For a variety of reasons, they don’t want to move their manufacturing plant. They start to enter the Chinese market. They’re now faced with
the option of trucking to Kansas City or Chicago, and then it gets railed by container out to Long Beach. If we had the opportunity to put that poultry product onto intermodal trains headed for Prince Rupert, instead of draying the products through a heavily congested place like Chicago, we could bring it to Superior. This might be a real competitive advantage for them. The Twin Ports is looking at that option. It strikes me as a logical extension of what we do very well in the Twin Ports.” Stewart also speaks of the benefits of competition within transportation modes that exist in this region as a key asset. “In the highway mode, you have multiple trucking companies. In rail, you have multiple railroads. In pipelines, you have multiple pipelines coming in and out. Airports – we have three airports. You’ve got multiple shipping companies that come in and out of here. So you have all five modes of transportation, and within each of those modes, you have competitive pressures. From a shipper’s point of view, that gives you a lot of options.”
In addition to that competition being a benefit when it comes to transportation costs, Stewart says the area’s existing logistical infrastructure is flexible and can support new business. “We already do a tremendous amount of transportation in and out of this region, which means that when a new company adds their freight to the mix – either incoming or outgoing – they are receiving benefits for only incremental costs, in many cases. If I have a freight train that leaves on a Class I railroad and I put another three cars on it, that’s much different than asking someone to start a new freight train for me. We have the rail networks, the highways.” In his role at UW-Superior’s Transportation and Logistics Research Center, Stewart, as well as his colleagues and students, help businesses make decisions. “Businesses will come to us and we work with them,” he explained. “We do studies and we analyze how to improve their systems and take advantage of new systems. We also turn out the graduates who they employ to work in the field. “We work hand-in-glove with APEX [Area Partnership for Economic Expansion] and the Superior-Douglas County Area Chamber of Commerce to further the development of businesses in the area,” Stewart added. “And one of the key components for all businesses is transportation. What can you do without transportation?” Indeed, “very little” is the correct reply to that question. Stewart (and the businesspeople and students he works with on a daily basis) are heavily invested in their work to assist diverse industries that want to transport products and materials through the Superior area’s strategic transportation hub.

TOURISM here’s an industry in the Superior and Douglas County area that is booming. You won’t see large machinery or big warehouses; yet, this industry operates in plain sight. The tourism and hospitality industry in Douglas County continues to be a driving economic force in our region. Its leverage of beautiful natural scenery (another asset in our region) and professional staff are both catalysts for this industry’s increasing growth. In 2015, the tourism industry brought $130 million in total business sales to Douglas County and supported 1,263 local jobs. Our amazing hospitality sector was the driving force behind the 3.78 percent increase in revenues from 2014 and an impressive 8.7 percent increase from 2013. Visitors to the county generated $10.3 million in state and local taxes in 2015, which resulted in the continued increase in jobs within the community. Tourism as a whole is also up in the state of Wisconsin. In 2015, tourism had a $19.3 billion impact on Wisconsin’s economy, up nearly 4.4 percent from 2014. This drive to travel has brought over 105 million tourists to our beautiful state. Wisconsin ranks No. 1 in fun, family atmosphere, uniqueness, affordability and outdoor recreation among its Midwest competitors – and Douglas County is tapping into that momentum. The hospitality industry in Douglas County largely comprises small businesses like local restaurants, hotels and attractions, so these jobs cannot be outsourced or exported. The increase of tourism to Northwest Wisconsin has prompted growth in all sectors of
40
www.superiorchamber.org
the hospitality industry. The food and beverage industry in Superior experienced growth in 2016 with the opening of new businesses including Epic Restaurant and Lounge, 7 West Taphouse and the Cedar Lounge. The increase in tourists coming and staying in Douglas County has also prompted construction of two new hotels in Superior, with the Hampton Inn on Highway 2 opening in the spring of 2017. Superior and its surrounding areas are home to many types of artists, potters, painters, textile artists and others. The arts have experienced a renaissance in Superior with the opening of Art on the Planet, a local shop that showcases and sells items created solely by local artists. The local music scene is continually growing, too, with near-daily music performances at establishments like the Spirit Room. A full schedule of events for this can be found at twinportsnightlife.com. And visit www.superiorchamber.org for information on events happening around Douglas County. The region’s rich history and culture can be discovered in museums, parks and historic districts. Our unique attractions tell the story of American Indian heritage, early explorers and settlers, the prosperity of the early boomtown days and our part in American history – especially World War II. Named for America’s “Ace of Aces,” the Richard I. Bong Veterans and Historical Center honors WWII veterans with exhibits that include a rare P-38 Lightning Fighter, a replica of the plane flown by Major Bong himself. Visitors can also turn back the clock to the gracious Victorian era by visiting Fairlawn Mansion. These museums and other attractions provide the perfect mix of fun and learning.
