LIVE: A procession is being held in Overland Park to honor fallen police officer Mike Mosher
who was killed in the line of duty a week ago
OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — It's been five years since Overland Park Police Department Ofc. Mike Mosher was shot and killed while responding to a hit-and-run incident on Sunday
The city of Overland Park is marking the anniversary with a public memorial
Overland Park City Councilman Scott Mosher
to see what this passage of time means to him
VOICE FOR EVERYONE | Share your voice with KSHB 41’s Taylor Hemness
"I've left the ribbon up because that's the original ribbon," Scott told me
pointing to a blue ribbon wrapped around a tree near the site where his son was killed
"I come here probably once a month; I drive by all the time."
it’s five years of one-day-at-a-time moments
“So five years is no different than any other day to me."
Scott Mosher exudes a sense of peace that is almost hard to believe. I’m a father, and I don’t know that I would be able to speak about losing a son the way he does
“But the father part of me says that what he did was not only to be proud of
I think sometimes [of] what could he have accomplished
I think he accomplished what the Lord wanted him to."
There’s a permanent plaque on the ground at a streetlight on 123rd Street in Overland Park
Scott also pointed out a faded spot in the road where he said the actual shooting happened
Mike Mosher was on his way to work that day
when he responded to an alleged hit-and-run
Mike's body camera caught the exchange, including the moment Carney pulled a gun
Scott told me a couple of years ago he watches that video every year. I asked him if he planned to do so again on the fifth anniversary
not to relive the experience but to hear his voice
It's the only place that I have his voice."
Scott also lost his wife about a year after Mike died
we both lost a son that day,” Scott told me
I sat down with all three parents a couple of years ago
The Carneys described the friendship they've built with the Mosher family
that's what it's taught me," Paul Carney said
Today, Scott Mosher is absolutely a different person. For one thing, he's on the Overland Park City Council
which he said his son asked him to pursue before he died
"What comes to mind is the forgiveness I have in my heart
the empathy that I have for others that I didn't have before," Scott said
And he looks forward to the day that he'll see his son again
"All we really have when someone passes is the memories that we have of them
and that's what keeps our heart quiet,” Scott said
but it's a manageable hurt based on the memories that we have of our loved ones."
I also reached out to Paul and Julie Carney for their thoughts on the fifth anniversary
"Today due to the mercy shown to us by the Mosher family we find less reason for anger
We try to pay it forward with Mercy for others when we can
"We are thankful to God that Officer Mike was there on May 3rd to stop our son from hurting others
We mourn his loss and grieve for his family
"I have written a letter to the President and sent copies to our 2 senators honoring Mike
In the letter I again ask for no immediate bail for those arrested under the influence of drugs or alcohol
They should at the very least be free of drugs and alcohol in their system and had some therapy for maybe 2 weeks-month
We believe this would have saved Mike’s life and our sons
"We like the programs that are evolving that are instituting rehab for those arrested with mental health and/or addiction problems
With some people who are detained in Douglas County they aren’t always arrested
but put through the SIMS program that we learned about a couple of years ago when we were invited to the JOCO criminal justice advisory board
We think there is progress that will help protect police officers and help those with mental health problems and addictions
"We also support the Welcome House which is a facility in KCMO that aids men in their recovery from addictions
They have done remarkable work for their clients
It was the only place our son did well for the longest amount of time
"Without the mercy and forgiveness shown to us by the Mosher family and the counseling we received from our counselors
We are grateful to all of them beyond words
We believe we have a merciful redeemer and we are at peace."
The city of Overland Park changed a section of 123rd Street, near where the shooting happened, to Mike Mosher Boulevard
the city will host a public memorial marking the five-year anniversary of Ofc

High 5 for Mom & Baby provides resources and a framework to help Kansas hospitals and birthing centers implement evidence-based practices proven to support successful breastfeeding
improving maternal and infant health outcomes while also reducing racial and ethnic health disparities
To obtain High 5 for Mom & Baby recognition
each facility is asked to complete a voluntary and self-reported evaluation and to follow at least five of the ten evidence-based practices:
“Breastfeeding plays a crucial role in the overall health of babies and mothers,” stated Katie Schoenhoff
Director of Programs at the United Methodist Health Ministry Fund
“Following the High 5 for Mom & Baby practices demonstrates AdventHealth South Overland Park’s commitment to infant and maternal health by helping moms successfully initiate and maintain breastfeeding.”
According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)
60% of mothers stopped breastfeeding sooner than they planned
Some factors that influence how long or if a baby is breastfed include: hospital practices
and access to community support–which is why High 5 for Mom & Baby facilities are committed to helping women breastfeed successfully
through staff trained in breastfeeding best practices and policies to help mothers meet their breastfeeding goals
Along with the recognition of being named a High 5 for Mom & Baby facility
AdventHealth South Overland Park also receives ongoing education and training opportunities
support and resources through a community of delivery centers
and scholarship opportunities to further staff education
“Breastfeeding provides numerous health benefits for both infants and mothers
and we’re honored to receive this recognition from the United Methodist Health Ministry Fund for our efforts to support successful breastfeeding initiation and maintenance,” said Monica Natzke
chief nursing officer at AdventHealth South Overland Park
“As a facility committed to providing the very highest quality of care
we have found the High 5 practices and resources to not only improve health outcomes but also increase patient satisfaction.”

Wisconsin-based financial technology company Fiserv, Inc. is the mystery firm eyeballing Overland Park’s Aspiria campus as the home for a new regional hub
The Fortune 500 company wants to lease out two existing buildings spanning roughly 425,000 square feet on the mixed-use campus for 2,000 white collar
Some of those employees are expected to transfer from established Fiserv workplaces
though the majority of them would be new hires
operates payment and financial services technology
including the point of sale platform Clover
They operate what Fiserv calls “strategic hubs” around the U.S
“The scope and scale of this investment — both in terms of job creation and private capital — will deliver generational impact,” said Libbey Tucker
who leads economic development efforts for the Overland Park Chamber of Commerce
Fiserv’s local operations at 6500 and 6550 Sprint Parkway on the Aspiria campus could begin as soon as this year
Fiserv formally announced its plans to open a new regional office hub in Overland Park
“We are thrilled to expand our U.S. footprint, bringing our people together to drive innovation on behalf of our clients,” Chairman and CEO Frank Bisignano said in a news release
Fiserv’s move also marks a key point for Aspiria as the ever-changing vision for the mixed-use site at the former Sprint World Headquarters has played out in fits and spurts over several years
“This is the largest job project that we’ve landed in my time on the council — that’s 20 years,” Mayor Curt Skoog said Monday evening
Kelly also called it “a significant step forward as we continue to elevate Kansas to new heights,” in a news release
the Overland Park City Council took a formal step toward setting up the incentive package on which the deal hinges
Fiserv has requested what amounts to a roughly 40%
the city council approved directing city staff to negotiate the rebate deal with Fiserv
Councilmember Jeff Cox was the lone dissenting vote
calling the structure of the proposed deal “unusual.”
who voiced support for the incentive package
abstained because Fiserv is a competitor to Lenexa-based Touchnet
the company where he works as a vice president
“It seems like anybody with lick of common sense knows this is a great idea,” Passer said
adding that he was “voting yes in spirit.”
the company would pay their full property tax bill annually and then request money back through an application process of sorts
That would give the city the power to deny a rebate to the firm or claw back money if they aren’t delivering on the promises and terms laid out in a final incentive agreement
Property taxes paid to the Blue Valley School District and Johnson County Community College would be exempted from the rebate
Overland Park has used a variety of incentives to encourage new development or to entice new business to the city
but the rebate incentive being discussed for Fiserv would be the first time the city has offered such a deal to a company
City staff previously said the rebate could offset an estimated $1.3 million in city property taxes for the company over the next 10 years
assuming an annual 5% valuation increase on the office space
One of the key cornerstones of the incentive package the city has offered to Fiserv Inc
is that the firm is expected to execute a minimum of $125 million in capital investment into its office space at Aspiria and employ 2,000 individuals at the Overland Park site by spring 2030
The average annual salary of those employees is anticipated to be $125,000
an Alabama-based attorney representing Fiserv
said the firm picked Overland Park’s Aspiria after a lengthy search that looked at other bigger cities for a new regional headquarters location
The 200-acre campus now known as Aspiria near Nall Avenue and 119th Street was at first envisioned solely for office development as part of the former Sprint World Headquarters
and when T-Mobile merged with Sprint in 2020
the company took over the western portion of the campus
Wichita-based Occidental rezoned the entire campus to accommodate mixed-use development
paving the way for a variety of uses with an eye toward entertainment
Reaching Occidental’s full vision for Aspiria is likely to take years if not decades
though there’s been some recent momentum at the campus
The campus has been rumored to be a site under consideration for a new Royals stadium, though Occidental quickly denied claims made on a local sports talk radio show
the developer said it continues to be “committed to keeping Aspiria a mixed-use space” with a variety of land uses
Fiserv said it plans to open its Aspiria office in 2025
The action from the city council this week simply sets up the incentive agreement with Fiserv but it does not finalize anything
Administration and Economic Development Committee will take up a property tax rebate agreement for consideration before sending it to the full city council for final consideration
terms for both the city and Fiserv will be officially hammered out
