Mayor John C. McKinney notes a trend of improving outward appearances citywide as residents and businesses remodel and repair. The Morgantown Sports Center now serves as an outlet for sports equipment and indoor and outdoor activities.
The city administration notes growing Westover pride as residents push to shape their own image. Recreation looms high in 1972 with a legally formed parks and recreation commission guiding plans for the hometown.

Westover approved an annexation of a six acre area off U S 19 housing Morgan Heights Elementary School. The year also saw three ordinances: mobile home regulations, and a measure to raise business and occupational taxes to full amounts, plus potential eligibility for federal funds to build a pool.
