The village of Mapleview was incorporated in 1945 to provide facilities for approximately 100 families. In 1948, a plot of land north of town was purchased, where the liquor store, fire station, water tower, pump house and equipment garages were eventually built. In 1954, the city bought {{convert|4|acre|ha}} along Murphy Creek, and this became Hillside Park. The fire house was built in 1958 and is currently{{when|date=March 2021}} running two fire trucks and 13 volunteer fire fighters, with Michael Langstaff as the Fire Chief of the Mapleview Fire Department. [[Natural gas]] was made available to residents in 1962. Until its disbanding in 2013, Mapleview and the city of [[Lyle, Minnesota|Lyle]] shared a police department, with police commission of a commissioner and two city council members from each city.
