City of Gardner
This community was settled mainly by Free
State men. Unlike their neighboring State of
Missouri that supported slavery. This created many
border war raids and ignited the beginning of the
Civil War.
Gardner became an incorporated town in
1886 and was named in honor of Governor Gardner
of Massachusetts, where Free State settlers
originated. Though many travelers of the westward
expansion had already traveled through Gardner by
1886, it was known as the location where the trails
divide. The Santa Fe Trail, the Oregon Trail, and the California Trail all split at this location.
Gardner is located in the southwest part of the county and is surrounded by unincorporated
Johnson County.
The City is operated by a mayor and city council that appoint a city administrator that is
responsible for the daily operations of the City. There are also five departments within the City
government: Finance, Public Works, Community Development, Public Safety, and Parks &
Recreation. The City uses the public safety concept where the police, fire, and medical are all
cross-trained and can be a first responder for any public safety concern.
