2011 annual Directory and buyer’s guide.
Congratulations! You’ve just
opened the cover of the
premier annual business
publication for Temple, Texas.
The 2011 Community Profile &
Business Referral Guide showcases
all the community assets that make
Temple so special and spotlights
businesses that make significant
contributions to the economic pros-
perity and quality of place enjoyed
by our citizens.
According to recently released
2010 U.S Census data, Temple’s
population has now reached
66,102, a near 22 percent increase
over the 2000 population of 54,514.
The foundation for this growth is found in the health care
industry, which is the single largest catalyst for economic
growth in Temple. The value of the health care sector
will continue to grow and prosper with the upcoming
addition of a children’s hospital that will serve patients
throughout Central Texas and across the state. Health
care, an emerging bioscience and technology commu-
nity, a strong transportation infrastructure, and strength
in the manufacturing and distribution sectors collectively
ensure that Temple will continue as a national leader in
job creation.
Public and private schools located in and around
Temple further enhance our quality of place. Four dif-
ferent independent school districts lie within the Temple
city limits, and following graduation from high school,
students have multiple options for degree work in two-
or four-year programs. High school instruction features
multiple vocational programs for those students more
interested in joining the workforce upon graduation.
Continuing education classes are plentiful for adults who
may wish to enhance their occupational skills or embark
on a different career path.
No description of our community would be com-
plete without mention of Ft. Hood, Texas. The economic
impact of the country’s most populated military instal-
lation is immeasurable, and Ft. Hood personnel and
their families are major contributors to our workforce.
Community outreach efforts, most visible at the public
school level, further underscore the positive impact
Ft. Hood brings to our community.
As in years past, we want to acknowledge all the
advertisers in the 2011 Community Profile & Business
Referral Guide. Without their commitment, we would
be unable to provide a publication of such high quality.
When and where you can, we strongly recommend your
patronage of these advertisers.
Today in Temple we celebrate our growth, our diver-
sity, and the future we see that glows so bright!
Bourdon Wooten, President
Welcome to the 2011 edition of our Temple Magazine. Through this maga-zine we hope you will find the wonderful things that make Temple a truly great city. We enjoy a terrific quality of life in Temple, with great schools, the finest medical care you will find in the country, wonderful shopping, and
year-round recreational opportunities. In our fine city we are blessed to have many big-city amenities without the big-city hassles.

If you are looking at Temple for business opportunities, we think you will find success, as many new businesses have in the past few years. If you are just looking at us as a place to visit, we offer museums, cultural events, and almost endless recreational opportunities.
On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Temple Chamber of Commerce, thank you for your interest in Temple. We stand ready to help you make Temple your destination; just give us a call. Sincerely, John C. Perry Chairman, Temple Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors

O rganized in 1907, the Chamber operated under the name of “Temple Commercial Club” until 1912, when the charter was amended and it was renamed “The Temple Chamber of Commerce.”
Throughout its 100+ years of existence, the Temple Chamber of Commerce has influenced the economic growth and community development of the area, and its current programs and initiatives continue to support its enduring mission: to facilitate, support, and promote the growth of Temple business and the improve-ment of the quality of place.
The Chamber focuses on five sectors of the community:
Business Growth & Development•Education & Workforce Development•Legislative Affairs•Community Development•Member Service•
Chamber initiatives, programs, events, and committees exist to encourage the growth of member businesses and to improve the community as a whole. The Chamber targets Business Growth and Development as a major initiative through regular educational seminars and numerous networking opportunities, including events such as Business After Hours, Business Networking Breakfast, Noon Networking, and the Golf Tournament. These events offer Chamber members different networking opportunities each month, at different times of the day, to accommodate all schedules.
Along with business growth, the Chamber accommodates the city’s need for a thriving workforce through its Education and Workforce Development Committee. This committee
works in various ways to address the education and training needs of the community.
Legislative Affairs is an area of increasing interest and impact for cities all over the state. The Chamber hosts many legislative luncheons throughout the year, covering issues such as transportation, signage, education, and building ordinances. These luncheons keep Chamber members informed and cur-rent on legislation at all levels of government. Although not a political organization, the Chamber’s goal is to be the instrument by which Chamber leadership makes informed decisions about topics affecting the community.
Community Development is a crucial area of focus for the Temple Chamber. It is involved in multiple programs and initia-tives that strengthen the community as a whole. Keep Temple Beautiful and the Temple Business Incubator are two programs in which the Chamber maintains a strong influence. Leadership Temple, organized and operated by Chamber volunteers and staff, is composed of current and potential leaders from all areas of the Temple community. This program is intended to prepare them to participate in community-oriented, decision-making activities and positions. The Chamber is also dedicated to the development and success of the annual Bloomin’ Temple Festival, held in April each year. This festival boosts the economy of the area and gener-ates an interest in the city. In addition to these programs, there are Chamber committees that feed Community Development as well, including the Temple Downtown Development Alliance. Overall, these active development committees and programs improve the downtown area and beautify the city of Temple. These programs also heighten awareness, involvement, interest, and concern for this growing city.

The Chamber is led by a Board of Directors, operated by staff, and driven by 1,000 member businesses. The Chamber’s mission has been a successful one in the past 100+ years, and with the constant support of its members and volunteers, the Chamber will continue to make a positive impact on the growth of Temple business and the improvement of the quality of life.
The Chamber is much more than committees, projects, and programs. The office receives thousands of calls each year from visitors and locals looking for a specific business, a place to stay and eat, a telephone number, directions, or simply to reminisce. If you are new to the area, be sure to stop by the Chamber office to pick up a newcomers packet filled with everything you’ll need to get you settled into the community. The Chamber also has city maps, telephone books, and much, much more. Information about the Chamber, upcoming events, visitor information, relocation information, community information, membership, employment, health services, economic development, and a searchable business directory are all available online at www.templetx.org.

Facilities and VenuesCultural Activities Center (CAC)
Azalee Marshall Cultural Activities Center (CAC) has been a hub of visual and performing arts in Temple for more than 50 years. Its art galleries host new exhibits about every six weeks and are open to the public, free of charge. The CAC also hosts numerous regional and national musicians and performers each year.
The CAC’s Arts In Education pro-gram provides an opportunity for every child in kindergarten through eighth grade in the Temple and Belton school districts, plus other area students, to enjoy shows by professional touring art-ists. Performances blend entertainment with core curriculum subjects for more than 14,000 students during 54 shows each year.
A number of member groups call the CAC home, including the Chisholm Trail Chorus of Sweet Adelines International and the Texas Country Gentlemen singing groups, and a wide variety of affiliated groups meet at the CAC, including the Central Texas Photographic Club, Newcomb School of Ballet, Central Texas Pastel
Society, Wildflower Quilt Guild, and more. If you want to get hands-on, art and clay, dance, cooking, fitness, and music classes, as well as summer youth, children, and even toddler camps, are offered here.
Frank W. Mayborn Civic & Convention Center
Next door to the CAC, the Frank W. Mayborn Civic & Convention Center has nearly 20,000 square feet of event space that underwent a major renova-tion in 2009. This venue hosts a variety of local, regional, and national trade shows, conventions, and banquets. Events such as bridal showcases, hobby and art shows, car shows, military balls, and even roller derbies are held at the Mayborn Center throughout the year.
Mary Alice Marshall Performing Arts Center
“Life without the fine arts is like life without fresh air,” said Mary Alice Marshall, the namesake of the Mary Alice Marshall Performing Arts Center at Temple College. Her 100th birthday in 2008 marked the beginning of a
$1.5 million campaign to renovate this important Temple venue that hosts not only campus performances, but also many community and regional events.
Community Members Lend Their TalentsTemple Civic Theatre
With a full-time professional staff, the Temple Civic Theatre performs six main-series productions each year, along with other special presentations. A committee chooses a variety of pro-ductions for each season, including musicals like South Pacific and My Fair Lady. Open auditions are held several times each year, and volunteers are always welcome, so the whole commu-nity has an opportunity to get involved, whether onstage or behind the scenes. Annual youth productions give the next generation a taste of the theater as well.
Temple Symphony Orchestra/ Temple Jazz Orchestra

Downtown After-HoursWhile historic downtown is home to many office buildings, developers
are rediscovering this area, and a number of entertainment venues here have become popular after-hours spots.
The Historic Cotton Exchange is an 1800s building that has found new life as an upscale café and wine bar after a recent renovation. The same is true of In The Mood Ballroom, a large dance hall that holds various events throughout the year, as well as providing group and private dance lessons.
Downtown bars like The Green Door on 2nd Street, J. Kowboy Wine Bar, and O’Brien’s Irish Pub host a variety of live music acts each weekend.

A business incubator, as the name implies, is a place for new businesses to be nurtured. The concept is not new, and there are over 7,000 business incu-bators worldwide. Businesses “graduate” in one to
five years, as they stabilize and grow to become a self-sufficient part of the local business community. Most incubators serve startup and new businesses, but the Temple facility, located on the ground floor of the Temple College Business Training Center in downtown Temple, also provides some services to existing businesses.
“Wow!” is a common reaction when visitors see the attrac-tive building and offices and hear about available resources. To business owners who take up residence, the incubator is a like a small community of entrepreneurs, where the staff and, indeed, the greater Temple community want them to survive their first, often tough, couple of years.
The incubator has 11 fully equipped offices for qualified new businesses (check for current availability). The cost is surpris-ingly reasonable. In addition to the spaces to lease, a satellite
office of the Small Business Development Center is located on premises with a full-time counselor. There is never a charge for this service. The S.B.D.C. provides assessments and intensive one-on-one counseling to both existing business owners and prospective, new entrepreneurs.
This is a truly exceptional arrangement if you are considering starting your own business. Where else can you sit down and informally visit with a business professional, at no cost, about the viability of your ideas for a business? We can help with the business plan, too. If you have ever seriously thought about starting your own business, connecting with the incubator is a genuine no-brainer.
To complete this array of small business supports, Temple College also provides many business-related courses in the build-ing and at the T.C. Downtown Center across the street.
The incubator is a nonprofit economic development pro-gram sponsored by the Temple College Foundation, the city of Temple, the Temple Economic Development Corporation, Temple College, and the Temple Chamber of Commerce.

M any of you may not know that there’s an “under-ground” organization right here in Temple with the sole mission of making our community a more beautiful place to live.
Keep Temple Beautiful (KTB), an affiliate of Keep America Beautiful and Keep Texas Beautiful, works tirelessly to ensure that our citizens can be proud of where they live. Often, their work takes place behind the scenes, as they coordinate with the city, the state, and community action groups to battle litter, educate on recycling and environmental impact, and create pri-vately funded programs for beautifying our public spaces.
Under the leadership of an all-volunteer board and Executive Director Tanya Gray, KTB conducts cleanups, raises funds for tree planting and gateway construction, and works with schools and businesses to develop self-sustaining programs dedicated to beautification and community improvement. The group liaises with city and state government, the Texas Department of Transportation, Parks & Leisure Services, Public Works, Solid Waste, Planning & Zoning, and others to ensure that projects improving the pride of Temple are in the forefront. We have worked with numerous entities to clean up trash along our city streets and parks, as well with the “Get a GRIP” program to remove graffiti. The “Put It Here” program promotes litter-free public areas and community events. Working with churches and schools, KTB has coordinated regular neighborhood clean-ups, while “Project Redirectory” has collected thousands of old phone books for recycling each year. “Tex and Dot Clean Up” and “Waste in Place” educational materials have been presented
to teachers for use in the classroom, and textbooks have been provided to the local Junior Master Gardeners program.
An annual litter survey conducted by board members has tracked Temple’s improvement over the past five years. KTB works with local businesses to facilitate access to recycling and to provide input on zoning rules that improve the look of the community. The group is working closely with the I-35 Strategic Investment Zone (SIZ) committee as well as the Temple Medical Education District (TMED) committee, even donating TXDOT award money toward greenscaping planning for the Loop 363 and Fifth Street interchange.
KTB’s goal is to improve both community and individual aware-ness of how the look of our community contributes to growth, bringing in new residents and businesses and keeping our city strong. With that in mind, we also liaise with other communities to share ideas. Executive Director Gray sits on the state board of Keep Texas Beautiful and is currently working with the state affiliate to teach sus-tainable practices across the state through webinars, workshops, and presentations, extending Temple’s influence across the state.
Keep Temple Beautiful is about finding win-win situations that allow the community to continue to grow in a smart, envi-ronmentally friendly way. Together, we are working with others
to ensure a sustainable community, which is the key to greater environmental protection, better economic policy, and a livable city that benefits everyone. Environmentally sustainable com-munities include businesses and services that prevent waste and reliance on energy efficiency and promote renewable sources of energy and high levels of public awareness and participation in local environmental issues. All of this is happening in Temple today. The new public awareness “Take the Pledge” campaign inspires and encourages citizens to take steps that assist in help-ing the environment and our community.
Our challenge to you is to get involved! Our redesigned web-site and Facebook page provide a link between you and what we’re doing. Remember: KTB’s programs are funded entirely by your donations. Your support in time and money is critical to helping us accomplish our mission. Donations can be made through your city water bill (find the form at www.ci.temple.tx.us or www.keeptemplebeautiful.org) or by joining our organization through business and individual memberships.
Ktb’s sole mission is to make temple a more beautiful place to live.

Private K–12Central Texas Christian School
In the fall of 1986, five committed Christian couples in the Belton/Temple area began meet-ing and praying to form a Christian school for the Central Texas area. As a result, Central Texas Christian School opened its doors to 14 students in August 1987. In 1998, the first high school ninth grade was established, and the school became a member of the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools. By the 2001–02 school year, CTCS had a complete high school program, and in May 2002, the first graduat-ing class walked in the first commencement exercise.
CTCS continues to excel academically, with students achieving scores above state, national, and local averages on both the SAT and the ACT.

St. Mary’s Catholic SchoolSt. Mary’s School was founded in 1897
under the name of St. Mary’s Academy by Father Heckmann, pastor of St. Mary’s Church. Under his direction, with the active support of a dedi-cated group of parishioners, Divine Providence Sisters guided the pupils for several years. The Divine Providence Sisters withdrew in 1912, and not until 1919 could teaching sisters be found to continue their good work. The Sisters of the Congregation of the Incarnate Word and Blessed Sacrament, from Houston, Texas, began their mission at St. Mary’s School in 1919 and had a presence in the school until the retirement in May 1995 of longtime librarian Sister James Philip Davison. In 1974, Mrs. Loris Edwards became the first lay principal. Today, the school is staffed by lay teachers who, together with the clergy, parents, and students, work for its uninterrupted growth and success to the greater honor and glory of God.
www.templetx.org 25
The primary role of St. Mary’s School is the continuous formation of students through a Catholic program of education committed to a standard of excellence. Staff help students to develop their spiritual, moral, intellectual, social, emotional, and physical abilities within a community dedicated to living the gospel. In cooperation with the family, the staff help students to form character so that they will accept responsibility to fulfill their personal potential and learn to share their gifts through love for all.
The school offers Pre-K through eighth grade education.
Temple Montessori SchoolThe main objective of Montessori schools
is to provide a carefully planned, stimulating environment that will help children develop foundational habits, attitudes, skills, and ideas that are essential for a lifetime of creative think-ing and learning.
Temple Montessori provides Pre-K through grade five education. The school believes a truly educated individual continues learning long after the years he or she spends in the classroom, because that person is motivated from within by a natural curiosity and love for knowledge. Montessori theory states that the goal of early childhood education should not be to fill the child with facts from a preselected course of studies, but rather to cultivate the child’s own desire to learn.
Higher & Specialized EducationThe Clinical Simulation Center
The Clinical Simulation Center is a collab-orative initiative of Temple College’s divisions of Health Sciences and Nursing, Scott & White
Memorial Hospital, and Texas A&M University System Health Sciences Center’s College of Medicine. The facility is designed to be a cam-puswide and regional resource where realistic clinical experiences can be simulated for a broad range of health care professionals.
The 30,000-square-foot facility provides a variety of health care programs, including stud-ies in biotechnology, dental hygiene, emergency medical services, radiologic technology, respira-tory therapy, polysomnography, and surgical technology. Students in these programs experi-ence state-of-the-art learning environments.
Texas Bioscience InstituteTemple College turned a declining degree
program into a comprehensive system for pro-ducing biotechnology/medical health care work-ers. Through unique partnerships with Scott & White, Texas A&M College of Medicine, the Central Texas Veterans Administration Center, the city of Temple, area independent school districts, and many other Central Texas partners, Temple College created the Texas Bioscience Institute, serving middle college students, com-munity college students, and bachelor’s degree students.
The middle college students are comprised of high school juniors and seniors from 12 dif-ferent high schools. The objective of the TBI Middle College Program is to prepare high school students for a career in a medical field by raising their level of math and science education through exposure to advanced college courses in a medical setting.
Texas A&M-Central TexasTexas A&M University-Central Texas in
Killeen is a unique university, offering upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses toward
bachelor’s and master’s degrees. The university was established September 1, 1999, and cur-rently serves over 2,500 students.
The school offers flexible course schedules, including online, night, and weekend classes. There is also a wide variety of students, ranging from community college graduates and transfer students to working adults, active military ser-vice members, and returning students who are pursuing degrees or fulfilling career educational requirements. Classes are offered at several sites for the convenience of both full- and part-time students and to serve the entire Central Texas area, including at area community colleges, high schools, and Fort Hood. Faculty, advisers, and support staff are available full-time during the day and during extended evening hours to assist students with admission, financial aid, degree plans, and career planning.
To encourage a seamless transfer from com-munity colleges to upper-level work at A&M-Central Texas, the university has developed agreements with Central Texas community col-leges that enable smooth transfers without loss of credits for students who begin their com-munity college studies with A&M-Central Texas in mind.
Temple CollegeTemple College, with an enrollment of about
6,100 students, offers quality education at an
temple Chamber of CommerCe26
affordable cost, striving to serve the needs of stu-dents with varying backgrounds and interests.
TC is known for academic excellence and outstanding technical-education programs. The college offers one-and-two year Certificates of Completion, Enhanced Skills Certificates, an Association of Arts degree, an Associate of Applied Science degree, and a variety of technical and health programs for certification. Certificates and the Associate of Applied Science are primarily intended for students who want to complete technical or allied health training at Temple College and then enter the workforce, while the Associate of Arts degree is primarily intended for students who want to complete their core curriculum requirements and then transfer to a senior college or university.
Temple College students have been named to the Texas All-State Academic Team every year
since its inception. TC has also received national recognition for innovative clinical health care education as one of the 10 finalists for the presti-gious Bellwether award.
Texas A&M Health Science Center College of Medicine
The Texas A&M Health Science Center College of Medicine utilizes approximately 1,300 basic and clinical science faculty in instructional programs in Bryan-College Station, Temple, Round Rock, Houston, and Corpus Christi.
Medical students are offered a wide range of clinical experiences at one of the regional cam-puses. The variety of clinical experiences enables each student to identify his or her career focus or specialty area in medicine. In these various set-tings, the clinical training program extends into
hospitals, managed care organizations, private clinics, and other outpatient settings.
The faculty members of the College of Medicine believe that the four years leading to the M.D. degree are only the beginning of a life-long process of medical education. They strive to provide students with the necessary back-ground to pursue any field of specialization they may subsequently choose. Medical education involves much more than the transfer of scien-tific information and techniques of patient care. A physician must cultivate a thoughtful moral and ethical outlook. Faculty members expect students to have high ethical standards, and they stand ready to lend assistance through whatever periods of personal uncertainty students may encounter. College of Medicine students can expect to associate closely with faculty members in all phases of the curriculum, because the col-lege maintains a small class size and a favorable faculty-to-student ratio.

T emple is strategically located along the Central Texas technology corridor, between San Antonio and Austin to the south and Dallas/Ft. Worth to the north, and is easily accessible via road or air. The city is located on
Interstate 35. This main north–south interstate through Texas extends from Mexico to Canada. Temple has the advantages of a strong supporting infrastructure and market, but without problems often associated with an urban environment, such as higher costs, too-rapid growth, and a difficult construction climate.
These advantages make Temple ripe for growth in the information technology market. With an impressive popula-tion of 1.5+ million people within a 60-mile radius of Temple; a locally high concentration of health care services, medical research, bioscience development, and research industry; a logistical software industry centered here; and a number of military support businesses in the area, the market opportuni-ties in software development are rich. The city of Temple is committed to creating a favorable business climate, and along
with the Temple Economic Development Corporation is very business-supportive, particularly for this industry segment.
The software development industry includes businesses related to the production and maintenance of computer soft-ware and is part of the larger information technology industry. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, among the occu-pations with excellent job prospects, positions as computer software engineers are expected to grow the fastest and add the most new jobs over the 2008–2018 decade; occupations in the computer and mathematical fields are expected to add 785,700 new jobs from 2008–2018. This group will grow more than twice as fast as the average for all occupations in the economy, and it is anticipated that computer specialists will account for the vast majority of this growth, increasing by 762,700 jobs (Bureau of Labor Statistics, Monthly Labor Review, November 2009).
Excellent prospects in the software industry will bring high-quality jobs with competitive salaries to Temple. The
temple is ripe for growth in the information technology market.

Temple Technology Success Stories
World-class technologies are already pro-vided in Temple by companies such as McLane Advanced Technologies, McLane Intelligent Solutions, McLane Logistics Technology, and Professional Datasolutions Inc.
Professional Datasolutions Inc.Professional Datasolutions Inc. (PDI) has been
providing software and services that meet the specialized needs of convenience store retailers and wholesale petroleum marketers since 1983.
Although acquired by McLane Company in 1991, PDI has remained a separate com-pany. By 2002 the company began working to rebuild its core software products and created PDI/Enterprise, which encompasses applications focused on home office, warehousing, site-level back-office, and mobile needs. Worldwide, over 340 companies rely on PDI’s systems to auto-mate key business processes, and PDI continu-ally enhances offerings to leverage new technolo-gies and industry standards in areas such as retail automation, decision support, fuel management, workforce support, and financial reporting.
Today, 110 of the company’s 155 employees work at the Temple office. One particularly inno-vative concept created by PDI for their employ-ees is an exercise reimbursement program that provides, in the office, several walk stations — low-speed treadmills, each configured with a computer workstation. Staff can walk while they are working, burning calories and building good health.
McLane Advanced TechnologiesMcLane Advanced Technologies (MAT) is a

Temple’s StrengthsQuality of Life
While quality of life is a very important con-sideration for those in the software industry, the factors dealing with quality of life are difficult to measure and can certainly be subjective. But they are very important in attracting and retain-ing a quality workforce.
temple Chamber of CommerCe40
The majority of software workers are between the ages of 24–34, and they are drawn to regions that have a high quality of life. Amenities that appeal to young professionals are important. The city of Temple combines the best of both worlds in providing the advantages of a small-town community with the conveniences of a much larger city.
Temple offers vibrant arts and culture through the Cultural Activities Center, Temple Symphony Orchestra, Temple Civic Theatre, museums and art galleries, lecture and concert series, and the Downtown Historical District, and the city is home to some of the finest restau-rants in the state. Recreation amenities include two area lakes, community recreation centers,
golf courses, public parks, swimming pools, hike and bike trails, soccer complexes, tennis courts, and youth centers. All of these cultural and social opportunities, along with the substantial education system provided by public and private schools, Temple College, Texas A&M University Health Science Center College of Medicine, University of Mary Hardin Baylor (Belton), and Texas A&M University-Central Texas (Killeen), enhance the quality of life in Temple.
“The Temple area is unique in that you can live in a relatively small town, an hour away from a major metro city, but also have the oppor-tunity to work at leading high-tech companies,” says Paula Conti, vice president of customer service and training at PDI.
Temple’s healthy arts and education commu-nity and abundant cultural opportunities attract knowledgeable workers, which in turn creates a productive and self-sufficient workforce.
Workforce: Diverse and EducatedProfessional, highly skilled specialists account
for more than half of all workers and are in con-stant demand, often requiring increasingly high-paying positions within Temple’s businesses.

“The Central Texas college and university systems — including the University of Texas-Austin, Texas A&M University-College Station, Central Texas A&M University-Killeen, Baylor University-Waco, Temple College-Temple, McLennan Community College-Waco, and Texas State Technical College-Waco — provide a tre-mendous educated and skilled workforce for the growth of software development companies right here in Temple,” says Lee Peterson, president of the Temple Economic Development Corporation. He adds, “A workforce of this size and quality may be one of the best in the nation.”
Pro-Business AttitudeThe TEDC board of directors and staff and
city of Temple elected officials and staff are committed to building the economy and com-munity infrastructure to ensure positive growth for Temple. This friendly, pro-business attitude is the key to encouraging business development in Temple.

Much like recent years, 2010 proved to be another challenging year for the commercial real estate industry. Investors, lenders, and service firms alike were faced with multiple challenges, and many
struggled to maintain their market positions. Despite these tough economic times, there appears to be a positive move in the com-mercial real estate market, with total investment increasing over 60 percent nationally from fourth quarter 2009 to third quarter 2010. This outlook is even better in Texas, with the state con-tinuing to outperform the U.S. economy in the current recovery. Those sectors leading the growth in Temple will again include medical, logistics/distribution, and military.
The Temple-Killeen Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) claimed the No. 1 spot on the 2010 “Best-Performing Cities” list for the top 200 largest metro areas in the Milken Institute Index, which ranks U.S. metropolitan areas by how well they are creating and sustaining jobs and economic growth. This is an improvement from last year’s No. 2 position. According to the Milken Institute, Temple’s wages and salary growth rates are among the best in the United States. These rates can be attributed to Temple’s main business sectors, which include medical, military, and industry.
leading the growth in temple’s commercial real estate market will again be the medical, logistics/distribution, and military sectors.

DevelopmentIn 2010, commercial developments picked
up over the previous year, with a number of new projects coming online. We have seen activity in both new construction and remodels. A large amount of new growth has occurred in West Temple along 2305 and Highway 53. Other areas seeing growth include the downtown area and along the IH-35 corridor.
Temple’s strategic location within 180 miles of 17.8 million people has continued to benefit the city’s development and growth in the last year. Some completed developments in 2010 include:
Holy Trinity High School• finished construc-tion of a 17,000-square-foot educational cen-ter and 12,000-square-foot gym on a 30-acre site on the north side of FM 2305, near Temple Outer Loop.American Bank of Texas• acquired 1.47 acres at the corner of FM 2305 and Honeysuckle Drive for its new Temple Branch. Auto Max Hyundai• completed the construc-tion of its new dealership, a project originally put on hold in 2009 due to the downturn in the economy. The Hyundai dealership is located on IH-35, north of the FM 2305/Centeral Avenue Exit.
Retail In spite of the continuing economic trials,
the vacancy rates of retail properties in the city of Temple have remained relatively constant over the past year. In large part, Temple has held on to its retailers while also adding some new busi-nesses in the retail segment. Due to the city of

Temple’s approval of the sale of liquor within city limits, Temple has seen the arrival of new national and local business owners:
Spec’s Wine, Spirits and Finer Foods• is now located in the Bird Creek Crossing Development at IH-35 and Loop 363. Twin Liquors• now occupies the former Blockbuster building on South 31st Street and Marlandwood Drive. Kork’s• , a locally owned businesses, is also a new addition to the city, located on IH-35 near 57th Street. Locally owned • The Point Liquor has opened two stores, one in the for-mer Albertson’s building and one in a new building near the Highway 53 and Highway 317 intersection.
Other significant changes to retail sector in Temple include:
The 54,000-square-foot • Albertson’s building was acquired in the spring of 2010 and remodeled. It currently houses a bingo hall as well as The Point Liquor, with an additional 35,000 square feet available for lease. The exterior of the 295,000-square-foot • Market Place shopping center has undergone major renovations this year. The owners have replaced the outdated brick façade with an upscale rock and stucco façade. In addition, retail storefronts were added to the east side of the building along 31st Street, providing high-visibility retail spaces in a portion of the center that was vacant for many years. Additionally, the center hopes to add a national retailer in the former Montgomery Ward space.
www.templetx.org 47
Temple saw the construction of its only •new retail center at the corner of FM 2305 and Ermine Trail. Paintbrush Plaza is a 22,000-square-foot neighborhood retail center that will be home to Benjamin Moore Paints, Valet Cleaners, and L & H Insurance Group LLC. The retail center also has additional space to lease and is well positioned to take advantage of its location in growing West Temple.
MedicalThe medical sector has been one of the most
important contributors to Temple’s economy and future growth, and 2010 was no exception, as Scott and White launched two new commercial projects in West Temple:
The construction of the • Scott & White Health Plan building was completed at 1206 West Campus Drive, just off Kegley Road and Highway 53. The three story, 80,000-square-foot Class “A” office building, completed in the fall of 2010, is part of the bioscience research campus and will house 334 employees.Scott and White began construction on the •Scott & White Westfield Clinic. This will be a 14,000-square-foot clinic located in the Westfield development on FM 2305. The clinic will feature 24 exam rooms, two treat-ment rooms and on-site X-ray and laboratory services. The project is scheduled to be com-pleted in the spring of 2011.
RestaurantsTemple has seen the addition of many new
restaurants in the past year, with more than one making major renovations to existing buildings to add to the variety of choices in the city.
temple Chamber of CommerCe48
Bush’s Chicken• and Sonic restaurants both opened in West Temple on FM 2305. In the downtown area, the former Perry’s •office building underwent major renovations and now houses Nami’s restaurant, which joins a growing number of eateries in the downtown area. Megg’s Café/Hamilton Bread Company• acquired the former Village Inn location at Center Point Plaza.Mad Mongo’s Mongolian Grill• acquired the former Poncho’s location on IH-35 near Temple High School.
Land SalesRelatively few major land sales closed in
2010 in the city of Temple. The most significant transaction completed
was the acquisition of a 15.8-acre site on IH-35 next to Don Ringler Toyota & Chevy by Johnson Brothers Ford, who will construct a new Lincoln, Mercury, Ford dealership, projected to begin construction this summer.
IndustrialTemple’s industrial vacancy rates have
remained relatively stable, which attests to Temple’s ideal location for the logistics/distribu-tion industry, an area where Temple is likely to continue to see growth in the future.
H-E-B completed its 400,000-square-foot dis-tribution center on its 160-acre site in Temple’s industrial park. The warehouse is adjacent to Temple’s rail park at Central Pointe, near the newly developed Wendland Road. According to the Temple Economic Development Corporation, the facility is expected to employ more than 112 people and serve more than 50 H-E-B retail
stores across the region, an area that extends from Austin to Dallas.
InvestmentToday’s commercial real estate invest-
ment market is unlike any seen in years past. According to the third-quarter 2010 issue of PwC’s quarterly nationwide Korpacz Real Estate Investor Survey®, most investors sense that the recovery of the commercial real estate industry will be slow, with minimal rental growth and leasing velocity. However, high-quality assets are continuing to be sought-after investments, resulting in increases in price and a decline in the overall capitalization rate.
As clearer signs of stability and recovery slowly emerge and investor confidence grows in the investment market, buyers’ and lenders’ interests will likely spread to more noncore, value-added opportunities and secondary mar-kets. For now, sellers who offer quality commer-cial real estate for sale will continue to receive a lot of attention.
Final ThoughtsAs the commercial real estate market con-
tinues to show signs of revitalization, Temple is primed to take advantage of the positive growth in the commercial real estate sector. With the extension of Bush-era tax cuts and the continued stabilization of the market nationwide, Temple’s commercial real estate market is likely to con-tinue with positive, albeit moderate, growth. Our city can look toward the future with opti-mism and confidence in Temple’s commercial real estate market.

I n autumn 2010, Central Texas was honored to find out that the Killeen-Temple-Fort Hood region was ranked No. 1 on the “Best Performing Cities” list by the Milken Institute/Greenstreet Real Estate Partners. Simply put, there are more
jobs here, more opportunities, and wonderful places to live.How does this information translate to residential real
estate sales? It shows that while no community has been completely immune from the recent recession, the Temple area has fared much better than most.
Temple TrendsOne of the biggest obstacles local real estate agents have is
trying to convince buyers moving into the area that they aren’t going to get as good of a “deal” as national news agencies have tried to lead everyone to expect. More often than not, buyers feel that they should be able to pick up a home for 10–20 percent less than the asking price, because that’s what they experienced on either the East or West Coast.

Sellers, on the other hand, are sometimes oblivious to any problems at all with the economy and still expect a premium for their property.
In this climate, how does anything get accomplished? Usually through looking at the comparable sales of the area and explaining to each party specifically about the local market.
The current Temple housing market displays a couple of key trends:
The average home price in our market is around $140,000. While there •has been a slight decline in home values, the numbers simply do sup-port the idea that prices have plummeted universally. Some buyers have an idea that most properties will linger on the mar-•ket indefinitely until the seller is forced to take a “lowball” offer. Once again, in this area that has not been the trend. In 2008, the average “days on the market” for a listing was 127 days. In 2009, that number had increased only slightly, to 145 days.
In other words, the Temple housing market is doing well compared to other parts of the nation.
Temple LivingWhere does one live in the city of Temple? There are many options to
choose from; whether it’s new or pre-existing construction, a certain area of town, or even a particular architectural style that’s desired, there are choices for everyone.
Infrastructure and DevelopmentPeople moving into town from larger metropolitan areas are always sur-
prised when they find out how quickly they can get from place to place and how it seems that everywhere in town is “just 10 minutes” away from their destination. Anyone familiar with Temple’s growth realizes that for the past 20 years, the city has been expanding toward the south and west. What used to be agricultural fields has become sprawling housing developments.
And with the recent completion of the new Loop 363/Interstate 35 and FM 2305 overpasses, getting from point A to point B is easier than ever.
Many of the newer subdivisions (those developed in the past 10 years) are planned communities with deed restrictions and homeowners associa-tions. An “HOA” is set up to help enforce the deed restrictions and take care of any common areas in a subdivision. They help keep subdivisions to certain standards and properties in the subdivision homogeneous. Some issues that are typically dealt with by associations are improper parking of cars and boats, lawn maintenance, and the general upkeep of property.
South TempleSouth Temple is known for being the retail area of the city, as well as for
being home to many small and medium-sized businesses. The growth that started in the area over 30 years ago continues at a steady pace.

Residential areas in south Temple have remained popular, with several newer ones, such as Bentwood and Canyon Ridge, being developed over the past decade. The area has also seen success with new high-end residential developments such as “D’Antoni’s Crossing” and “Las Colinas.” The proximity to shopping, churches, and other neighborhood services — including being just minutes away from Scott and White Hospital — has aided in south Temple’s continued prosperity.
West TempleThe biggest area for growth in the city of
Temple continues to be the area west of Loop 363. West Temple has seen more residential development in the past decade than any other area of town.
People moving to this area have numerous options in subdivisions and new developments. Whether they are interested in existing proper-ties or newer homes by one of the community’s outstanding local builders, there is something for every taste and budget.
The majority of this area falls within the Belton Independent School District. Growth in the area has brought BISD a great deal of tax revenue, allowing new schools to be built and older ones to be improved.
Commercial growth has followed the roof-tops in west Temple. Residents no longer have to drive across town for their everyday shopping needs. West Temple is also the home of the Temple Industrial Park and Bioscience Center. This makes for easy commutes for employees and will ensure prosperity for the area for years to come. The city of Temple continues to add
hike and bike trails to the area for not only fit-ness, but also as alternative ways to commute to work.
North TempleNorth Temple is home to many older neigh-
borhoods, including the city’s historic district. State historic markers grace the porches of several homes, and the area is known for unique architecture and an organized preserva-tion league. See everything from Mediterranean-influenced homes to Craftsman-style bungalows. It’s a perfect area for a Sunday drive.
And MoreIn addition to areas already mentioned, there
are other subdivisions that offer options to all kinds of home buyers. Housing developments built between the 1960s and 1980s offer afford-
www.templetx.org 53
able homes in well-established neighborhoods. If a family needs more space, older homes are a great option. Most areas in town are well main-tained, and many have their own community associations.
Temple has a lot to offer current and pro-spective residents. Regardless of budget, tastes, or preference, there seems to be something for everyone. Temple is poised for a wonderful new chapter in its rich history. To quote an old Temple Chamber of Commerce slogan, “Try Temple — you’ll be glad you did.”

N ot long ago, Temple’s parks system was one of the city’s best kept secrets. Today, however, it’s safe to say that the secret is out. For the last two years, the Temple Parks & Leisure Services Department
has been recognized as one of the four finest parks systems in the United States, and as you will see, it is an honor that is well deserved.
In both 2009 and 2010, the American Academy for Parks and Recreation Administration (AAPRA) and the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) selected the Temple Parks & Leisure Services Department as one of four finalists for the National Gold Medal Award for Excellence in Park and Recreation Management. Finalists are chosen based on the quality of facilities and programs they offer and the manner in which they serve their community.
Get OutsideParks
Temple is home to more than 50 parks and outdoor facilities. What do all those parks mean for Temple residents and visitors? Options aplenty. Wherever you find yourself in Temple, you can be sure you’re not far from a Temple park.
Pocket parks serve as tiny oases in neighborhoods across town, with playgrounds, barbeque pits, and more. Temple’s five large community parks offer a wide array of amenities, including athletic fields, disc golf courses, picnic pavilions, horseshoes, washer pits, and more.

In response to this demand, the Temple Parks & Leisure Services Department has dedicated itself to improving its trail system. Over the last five years the department has expanded its trail miles by more than 60 percent. Today, the Temple trail system consists of more than 22 miles spread throughout 14 different trail locations.
In 2008 the trail in Lions Park received spe-cial recognition when the secretary of the inte-rior dedicated it as a National Recreation Trail. The trail is more than two miles in length and offers some of Temple’s most beautiful views.
And, in the last year, Temple Parks & Leisure Services has opened two exciting new trails:
The • Friar’s Creek Trail runs along South 5th Street, connecting existing trails in south Temple and Silverstone Park and moving towards Loop 363. The • Pepper Creek Trail branches off the FM 2305 Hike & Bike Trail near Kegley Road. The 12-foot-wide trail boasts a number of breathtaking features, including scenic walk-ways, water features, and a dam.
Along with these great paths, the Temple Parks & Leisure Services Department is blazing a trail into the future. It is currently developing a Trail Master Plan for the city. The goal of this plan is to develop an interconnected network of trails through the city.
Get PuttingTemple is home to several golfing loca-
tions. There are options for every budget and skill level.
In the first half of 2011, the Sammons Golf Links will be undergoing a major facelift. When all is said and done, the course will be longer and stronger. New irrigation is being installed, the course is being resurfaced, and all greens are being replaced. More importantly, two of the course’s existing holes are being combined to form one long par 5, and a new par-3 hole is being created. It’s estimated that the project will be finished by July. Have no fear, though: Throughout the duration of the improvements, visitors will still be able to use the driving range, check out the pro shop, and enjoy the offerings of the Sandwedge Grill.
Temple College also hosts a small nine-hole course next to the VA Hospital.
The Wildflower Country Club is a private club that offers members an 18-hole golf course as well as a swimming pool, tennis courts, a restaurant, and more.
Get Your Game OnLooking to feed your competitive spirit?
Perhaps you just want to enjoy the camaraderie of being part of a team. Well, you’re in luck, because the Athletics Division of Temple Parks & Leisure Services offers dozens of great leagues and athletic opportunities at any given time.
Every season, the division organizes and offers leagues in sports as varied as softball, flag football, basketball, volleyball, dodgeball, and more. More popular sports, like soft-ball, usually consist of multiple leagues for both men’s and co-ed teams. These often also include separate leagues for more competitive play and “just for fun” divisions.
www.templetx.org 57
In addition to all of the great sports leagues, the Athletics Division also manages a number of great drop-in activities, including weekly mid-night basketball games and open gym volleyball. They also organize a number of great runs, races, and competitions, including 5 and 10Ks, fun runs, duathlons, and triathlons.
Get SplashingThere is no more welcome escape from the
hot Central Texas sun than a visit to one of the Parks & Leisure Services Department’s many great pools and splash facilities.
During the summer months the department manages three beloved outdoor pools around town. Don’t worry, though: Since 2009, Temple has also been home to a wonderful indoor pool in Sammons Park. In the pool’s four heated lanes, visitors can enjoy not only year-round open and lap swim times, but also a number of fitness-based and therapeutic programs.
In addition to its pools, Temple Parks & Leisure Services also maintains three popular splash pads in Ferguson, Miller, and West Temple parks. These great facilities offer plenty of shade for parents and hours of fun for their children.
Another great destination for anyone look-ing for aquatic recreation is the Lions Junction Family Water Park, located in South Temple Park. Lions Junction is a state-of-the-art water park that boasts a number of wonderful ame-nities, including two huge water slides, a 300-foot lazy river, an enormous splash play-ground, and more.
Get Fit & Stay ActiveTemple is home to a number of great facilities
geared toward helping you realize your fitness and wellness goals.
The Summit Family Fitness Center offers dedicated cardio and weight studios, racquetball and tennis courts, a 20-foot climbing wall, and a community pool. The Summit also conducts a wide array of fitness and wellness classes for every member of your family. The center’s new kids’ fitness room blurs the line between fun and fitness, engaging children with high-tech, full-body video games that will leave them covered in perspiration and smiles.
The Wilson Park Recreation Center has two fitness areas filled with great cardio and weight equipment, along with several rooms for classes and meetings. Wilson also houses a newly renovated hardwood basketball court that is perfect for everything from pickup games to children’s leagues. The center has traditionally served as the headquarters for most of the Parks & Leisure Services Department’s youth, toddler, and teen programming.
Likewise, the Sammons Community Center is a popular destination for Central Texans looking to have fun after 50. The center offers members daily programs and activities, including cards and domino games, billiards, shuffleboard, art and crafts, fitness classes, and more. Memberships are incredibly affordable at just $5 a year. Sammons staff members also organize several great dances and special events every month.
Temple is home to a number of other great fitness centers and gyms, including Anytime Fitness, Curves, GymX, Just Fitness 24/7, and Source Fitness.

important asset is its hospitality venues. With more than 30 hotels and 150,000+ square feet of meeting space, the Temple area is well equipped to accommodate groups of many sizes.
Temple is also well positioned in the health care arena. With Scott & White Hospital and the Temple VA, hundreds of thousands of people come to Temple every year for doctor and hospital visits. Great vacations and diversions can be built around medical meetings, annual physicals, and other medi-cal examinations. The friendly, peaceful, and fun outdoor life also encourages people to stay healthy.
Temple has its own place in history and is the center loca-tion of much of the story of Texas. Temple itself has a great story as well. This is a town that has grown from a whistle stop to much, much more. It has the best medical facilities in the Southwest, one of the strongest economies in Texas, and great waterways, golfing, and museums.

T he Temple Convention & Visitors Bureau (CVB), a division of the city of Temple’s Parks & Leisure Services Department, is responsible for all of the city’s visitor attraction activities. As such, the division
is responsible for the daily operations of the Temple Visitor Center and the Mayborn Convention Center. While both facilities have very unique qualities and benefits, the conven-tion center has seen major upgrades during the past year and is poised to make a much larger impact on the local tourism industry than it has in the past.
As part of the project, both the meeting rooms and the common areas all received new floor finishes, including a beautiful stain on the main hall floor and new carpet in the lobby, hallways, and side rooms. New paint and ceiling tiles
were also added, making quite a visual impact over the previ-ous finishes.
The lobby has received many additional upgrades, includ-ing a unique art panel system, planter boxes, new lobby furniture, upgrades to the concession stand, and beautiful high-end carpeting. The new look is well complemented by décor that creates a contemporary feel.
In addition to the beautiful stained floor, the main hall lights have been upgraded and can now be dimmed by zone to create more versatility depending on the intended mood. The entire facility is now equipped with Wi-Fi Internet con-nectivity and a new sign system.
The kitchen has been completely renovated and upgraded from floor to ceiling. The new floor covering provides the

perfect platform for the gorgeous new appliances, sinks, and walk-in refrig-erator. Several customers who have used the new kitchen appliances have been very complimentary of their quality and ease of operation.
The restrooms were also renovated and now have new toilet partitions, ceiling tiles, paint, and solid surface countertops, which were generously donated by Wilsonart.
Since the completion of the renovation project, the facility has seen record rentals and increased interest. Moving forward, the CVB staff plan to
capitalize on the momentum created by the project to push rental numbers even higher in years to come.
Another of the Temple CVB’s crown jewels is the Temple Visitor Center, which is located in historic downtown Temple. The very site of the Temple VIC holds much historic value. For the first 40 years of Temple’s history, the corner where the center now stands was the heart of the city. The square was comprised of a city park and Beaux Arts-style domed Carnegie Library, which opened in 1904. It was the gathering place for conventions and rallies and the birthplace of numerous prominent organizations.
Booker T. Washington came to Temple in 1912 to address citizens in the Carnegie Library auditorium at the invitation of African-American business leader Robert Wells. Wells owned a construction company that built the Kyle Hotel and many other downtown buildings. In 1911, Wells was the keynote speaker for the 12th Annual National Negro Business League, with Washington as president-elect. Washington returned the favor by accepting Wells’ invitation to speak in Temple.
The Temple Visitor Center and the Mayborn
Convention Center both have very unique
qualities and benefits.

In 1914, the Texas Forestry Association sprouted here, far from any Texas forest. W. Goodrich Jones, a native New Yorker, came to Temple as a banker in 1888. No sooner had he arrived than he longed for trees in this virtually treeless prairie town. He planted the town’s first tree, a pecan. He led planting drives in Temple and in 1889 pushed for a statewide Arbor Day. The chief U.S. forester asked Jones to survey Texas forest resources, so he enlisted friends to help. They met in the Carnegie Library to orga-nize the Texas Forestry Association.
Today, Temple residents and visitors alike can find a wealth of information at the Temple VIC, which opened in 2003. Friendly, knowledgeable staff can provide travel guides and information about Temple attractions. The center is also sur-rounded by ample parking so that visitors can explore these attractions on foot if they choose, leaving their cars in a safe and central location.
This beautiful center is not just for visitors, however. Citizens are encouraged to drop by the Temple Visitor Center and take advantage of the many services that are offered. Scores of bro-chures are stocked from all over the state, com-plimentary coffee is served fresh every morning, free city maps and phone books are available, and much more.

T he city of Temple is governed under the council-manager form of local government. The mayor is elected at large, while the four-member Council is elected by district. As the elected representatives of
the city of Temple, the mayor and Council are tasked with formulating public policy to meet community needs as well as directing the city manager and other appointed officials. The five-member body is also responsible for adopting an annual budget, reviewing and adopting all city ordinances, maintain-ing and updating the strategic and master plans for the city, and promoting economic development.
Temple, Texas, topped the Milken Institute’s 2010 “Best Performing Cities” list because of the area’s ability to create and sustain jobs. Due to our city’s diverse economy, which includes industries such as health care, bioscience, and manu-
facturing, our area has been somewhat protected from job losses suffered by other cities.
Another of the city’s key assets is its strategic location on Interstate 35 and Highway 190. This location not only links Temple to other major Texas cities like Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, San Antonio, and Houston, but also places it within 180 miles of over 18 million people.
Temple is attracting new businesses and families alike to choose the city as their new home. The Temple City Council and appointees manage growth and progress of this top-per-forming city for the 66,000+ people who live and work here, keeping the city’s vision of “Best Education, Best Jobs, and the Best Quality of Life” as a basis for all decisions made.

The city of Temple is tops is many arenas this year. Temple is taking an aggressive approach to making the city a more livable, business-friendly, and attractive community. This approach landed Temple in the No. 1 spot on the 2010
Milken Institute index of best-performing cities, up from No. 2 in 2009. According to the report, the index results “show that a business-friendly climate, a vibrant tech industry and little expo-sure to the housing bubble kept Texas on stable ground during the economic downturn.” The index ranks metropolitan areas on their ability to create and sustain jobs.
Additionally, in 2009, CNNMoney.com listed Temple as a top place in the United States to start a business. Businesses of a world-wide nature are begun, fostered, and flourishing in Temple today.
Global BioDiagnostics Corp., a spinout company from the Texas A&M University System, is an early-stage biotechnology company working in partnership with Texas A&M and Stanford University to develop and distribute a world-changing new product for tuberculosis detection. The company is managed by Michael T. Norman, J.D., and Chris N. Thornton, M.B.A., who serve as the CEO and president of the company, respectively. This company is moving ahead toward its vision of becoming a worldwide leader in the global infectious disease diagnostics market by providing low-cost, easy-to-use, rapid diagnostics that are designed with the end user’s constraints in mind. Helping its success is its Temple location, the relationships made with others from the biotechnology field located here, and the city’s strategic focus on growing its health and bioscience industry.
TMED: A Community Partnership for Strategic Development
The Temple Medical and Education District was formed to forge an alliance and partnership among key campuses and facili-ties in our community. The district is comprised of Scott & White Hospital, the Texas A&M Health Center College of Medicine, the Central Texas Veteran’s Healthcare System, Temple College, and Travis Science Academy. Located in the heart of Temple, this district strives to promote health care, learning, research, redevelopment, and economic development initiatives. Emphasis is placed on dense, compact neighborhoods, mixed-use centers, and pedestrian-oriented development to stimulate and ensure the long-term economic vitality of this strategic area.
In order to facilitate redevelopment in the area, the city has taken a multifaceted approach. These strategies are molded in conjunction with the TMED Integrated Master Plan, a plan that incorporates the master plans of each partnering entity or busi-ness within the district.
A development code was adopted in late 2010. To help address mobility and quality of place within the district, develop-ment of TMED has been approached as a “university village” con-cept. This approach, with its progressive and practical walkable environment, will include high-density student and employee housing, retail, dining, medical education, improved public and higher education, research centers, and medical services. The code provides standards for sub-districts, including architectural features, design elements in public and private frontages, and design for parking, providing for a quality sense of place. This development code is complemented by increased code enforce-ment efforts in the area.
Critical to this alternative development pattern is a network of infrastructure that includes hike, bike, and pedestrian trails that interconnect employers. The initial phase of trails includes 7,600 linear feet of trail and sidewalks with lighting, landscap-ing, streetscape, and other facility enhancements such as seating. Undeveloped areas will be enhanced with new roadways. A shared-use amphitheatre will be constructed in the heart of the district. Currently under way is a gateway and monumentation plan, which will be executed to solidify branding efforts in the district and to delineate district boundaries. Elements will include TMED entry monuments, signage, and banners. Finally, Temple College is making a considerable investment in the district by expanding its campus footprint and constructing a new educational building and laboratories, along with campuswide parking facilities.
Another key element of redevelopment in TMED is the city’s Strategic Investment Zone grant program. Now in its third year, this program has provided six grants to businesses located along South 1st Street. It features tax abatement, façade improvement, sign improvement, landscaping, demolition, sidewalks, and waiver of fees.

Northwest Loop 363: A Partnership to Improve and Expand Transportation Efforts
In September 2010, the City Council autho-rized the city manager to execute a Pass-Through Financing agreement with the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) for improvements to Northwest Loop 363. Total project costs are esti-mated at $45,097,877, and it will be the largest single capital improvement project ever undertaken by the city.
The Pass-Through Financing program was established by TxDOT as a means to benefit local areas by acceleration improvements in mobility and safety on the state highway system. Under the program, cities or counties can enter into an agreement with TxDOT in which the parties agree that an addition to the state highway system will be constructed within the boundaries of the city/county and that the city/county will finance the cost of those improvements up front. In return, TxDOT will reimburse the city or county that financed the improvements based on future usage of that road improvement by the public.
The project scope under consideration is an expansion of NW Loop 363, to include adding two frontage roads on NW Loop 363 from FM 2305/West Adams north up to the BNSF main line, a grade-separated interchange at SH 36/Airport Road, and a grade separation at Wendland Road.
On related notes, the city has been working with TxDOT on two projects related to NW Loop 363. One is the IH-35 Troy segment, which includes the expansion of IH-35 from four to six lanes from the NW Loop to the north of Troy. The project includes improvements to the IH-35 interchange at the NW Loop and a direct connector from IH-35 to the NW Loop. Total project cost for this segment of IH-35 is
estimated to be $135.5 million, and the contract is scheduled to be let this year. In addition, TxDOT has already let a $7.9 million contract for an over-pass over the BNSF mainline at the NW Loop.
David Blackburn, city manager, says, “The com-bined impact of these three projects, totaling almost $200 million, represents a noteworthy investment and achievement by TxDOT and the city. This agreement gives the city an opportunity to take significant steps forward toward improving the NW Loop and toward getting IH-35 improvements through Temple closer to reality.”
Temple Fire & Rescue: A Partnership with the Citizens to Improve Service
With the opening of Temple Fire & Rescue’s new Central Fire Station earlier this year, the fire department will be able to more efficiently serve our residents in 2011. This project is a result of citizens’ overwhelming approval, in the May 2008 election, of the issuance of general obligation bonds in the amount of $13.99 million for public safety projects.
“I would like to thank the voters for their sup-port of the department in approving the 2008 bond,” states Fire Chief Lonzo Wallace. “This has allowed us to build Central Station, Station 8, and replace three front line engines.”
This new Central Fire Station is 22,372 square feet with four apparatus bays and two stories on the north end of the facility. The first floor is designated for Station 1 operations, while the administrative offices are located on the second.
“Central Station is a modern facility incorporat-ing many safety features, including a fully sprin-klered building and drive-through apparatus bays,” comments Wallace. “Drivers will no longer have to
stop on North 3rd Street as firefighters back their trucks into the station.”
It is anticipated that this new station will contain adequate space for the next 20 years and beyond.
Continued Managed GrowthThe city takes great pride in its community
planning efforts. As the city grows, develops, and improves, the staff takes a proactive approach to long-range planning. This planning helps to ensure that the city has adequate facilities to meet the demands of future growth and development, to develop an efficient growth pattern that reflects the values of the community, to ensure the long-term protection and enhancement of the visual impact and the appearance of the community, and to main-tain the community’s local heritage and culture.
Growth is strategically managed by City Council and staff through “Temple Tomorrow,” the city’s strategic vision and plan. The plan outlines the city’s mission statement of “Choose Temple”; the city’s vision of “Best Jobs, Best Education, Best Quality of Life”; and four strategic areas of focus: Grow the Tax Base, Grow Health and Bioscience, Grow the Transportation Infrastructure, and Grow Community Enhancements. Also guiding future development for the city of Temple is the Temple Comprehensive Plan, “Choices ’08.” This plan is a framework for guiding future development, rede-velopment, and community enhancement in the city and its surrounding planning area over the next 20 years and beyond.
The city of Temple is a great place to live, to play, and to do business. These projects are a small sam-pling of ongoing efforts intended to encourage you, your family, and your business to “Choose Temple.”

I n the early morning hours of January 19, 2010, the mem-bers of First Baptist Temple gathered in their church park-ing lot, located at 102 West Barton Avenue. They watched in horror as their church sanctuary went up in flames.
Investigators later confirmed that the fire was the result of arson.
First Baptist Church Temple Pastor Dr. Martin Knox said he received a phone call around 5:30 that morning informing him that the church was on fire.
“I was there by 5:40 a.m.,” he said. “I watched smoke come out for at least 20 minutes or more, and then fire come through the roof. All of our offices were in that building. The fire then moved into our sanctuary. We lost all of it.”
The church’s children’s department was damaged also.“I was in disbelief and angry,” Knox said. “I was asking
myself, ‘How do I pastor these people through this trau-matic loss?’ I began to think about where we could meet for worship.”
Christ Church Temple sits just a block away from First Baptist. Rev. David Alwine said he, too, will never forget that tragic day.
“When I arrived at the church, I could see flames coming out of First Baptist,” he said. “I thought, ‘This is their home burning down.’ As Christians, we are called to respond to crisis; we’re kindred spirits with the same beliefs, we just
worship in different ways. But we’re all Christians, and that is what matters.”
Christ Church staff and members set up a breakfast table in the parking lot for bystanders. They provided coffee, break-fast tacos, and donuts.
“We just wanted to be there for the people to talk to — it was a very traumatic experience,” Alwine said.
For three days after the fire, First Baptist held meetings at Christ Church.
“We gave them a key and the password and let them use our building at their will,” Alwine said. “They still used our space for Bible studies after that, and we announced the times at our church. We even had some of our members attend their Bible studies. It was a chance for us to come together as broth-ers and sisters in Christ.”
Other local churches also responded to the First Baptist Temple fire.
First United Methodist Temple Pastor Tom Rollins said they had just finished a brand-new addition to their church and that it could not have been completed at a better time.
“We had been in a process of drawing a 10-year plan to add a new building,” he said. “We opened the building Dec. 13, 2009. Then, in January 2010, I was driving downtown and I saw the flames at First Baptist.”

Rollins found Pastor Knox the morning of the fire and told him that First Baptist would be welcome to house their 11 o’clock services inside the building. Knox accepted the offer, and for about a year First Baptist held their worship services there.
“This has to be of God,” Rollins said. “After 10 years we finally had a new building; not only did we need it, but they did too. God made something good out of something bad.”
Knox said he and the members of First Baptist are very grateful for the support they have received from the local churches and community.
“My friendship with David at Christ Church and Tom at First United Methodist has truly developed through this experience, and I am very thankful for that,” Knox said. “Bethel Church was also there the morning of the fire and helped out with a lot of the expenses that weekend.”
Alwine said he feels a close partnership with First Baptist.
“Martin would walk around his buildings, praying over his church,” he remembered. “He would then walk around ours and pray for us as well.
“I can’t imagine what they went through,” Alwine continued “I’m going on my 11th year here at Christ Church. My son and daughter were married here, and I’ve had grandchildren baptized here. Families at First Baptist had the same type of family memories; watching that fire was like watching their family portraits go up in flames.”
The community also held a local fundraiser to benefit the victimized church.
“The Cultural Activities Center put the event together for us,” Knox said. “Choirs from different
churches sang and raised money to help. Extraco also set up a fund for us to use, from donations. The Temple community has been so wonderful to us.”
First Baptist Temple is currently working with contractors to build a new sanctuary on their West Campus property at F.M. 2305 and Pea Ridge Road.
“We hope to begin building by fall 2011,” Knox said. “Until then we meet at the worship center downtown for the 8 a.m. and 11 a.m. services, and we hold a 9:30 a.m. West Campus service at Pirtle Elementary School.”
Reverend Alwine said Christ Church will con-tinually support First Baptist Temple in their recovery.
“Faith is stronger than bricks and mortar,” he said. “A building does not make a church; the people do.
“I have a memorable quote by C.S. Lewis that comes to mind when I think about that tragic First Baptist fire: ‘God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world.’”
