WHEREAS, the City Charter states that the Sioux Falls City Council is the policy making and legislative body of the City of Sioux Falls;

1. The Sioux Falls City Council supports prudent state investments to increase municipal water resources, including the proposed $1 million appropriation funding Dakota Mainstem engineering and assessment planning.

Locally, the Sioux Falls Regional Airport’s passenger total is projected to reach a record 1.35 million passengers in 2024, exceeding last year’s passenger record. To meet this growing regional demand for air travel, the airport is proposing to construct a new concourse that will provide five new gates to expand air service for the region. We urge the legislature to appropriate the necessary funds to be used in combination with federal funds to allow this significant terminal expansion project to move forward.

3. The Sioux Falls City Council supports legislation that creates a regulatory environment that increases enrollment in the South Dakota Child Care Assistance Program.

4. The Sioux Falls City Council supports legislation that provides local law enforcement with the necessary tools to address motor vehicle violations, including but not limited to speed racing, reckless driving, and street takeovers.

5. The Sioux Falls City Council supports efforts to safeguard children and educators from deadly threats. The council, therefore, supports pragmatic, realistic legislation, including the proposed School Safety Grants, that provide vital resources and promote the best practices for school safety.

Action 39672

Rebecca Wimmer, Coordinator Community Partners and Afterschool Programs and Paul Keizer, Community Learning Centers Executive Director , presented the Sioux Falls Community Learning Centers Report as follows (MRF#19511):

The Sioux Falls Community Learning Centers (CLC) initiative continues to drive meaningful change, helping students unlock their full potential through a collaborative approach that offers extended academic learning, enrichment activities, life-skill development, college and career readiness skills, and family engagement.

Now in its second year, the CLC program serves roughly 1,800 elementary students across 22 school sites with consistent before-and after-school care and summer enrichment. Enrollment has remained steady compared to the previous year, while demand for financial support has increased significantly. Since July 2024, more than $1.3 million in scholarships has been allocated to support families. Additionally, the CLC recently awarded a contract to the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Sioux Empire to provide services at Marcella LeBeau Elementary, starting in the 2025-2026 school year.

At the middle school level, CLC programming is ready for growth. While no consistent before-and-after school care is currently available, the District offers interest-based

after-school clubs and grant-funded tutoring at some schools. The CLC has addressed these gaps by collaborating with community partners and donors to construct a dedicated facility at George McGovern Middle School. Scheduled for completion in Fall 2025, this space will significantly enhance after-school opportunities for middle school students.

High school programming has focused on discovery and collaboration over the past year. The CLC has supported events such as a journaling club for alternative placement for students and a virtual reality career exploration event. These efforts have laid the groundwork for future initiatives centered around college and career readiness and recreational activities.

Family and community engagement remains a cornerstone of the CLC’s mission. Events such as Health & Wellness Fairs and Housing Education sessions demonstrate how the District leverages school facilities and community partnerships to meet the needs of families.

The Community Learning Centers reflect the District’s commitment to fostering success both in and out of the classroom. With thoughtful planning and collaborative efforts, the CLC is well-positioned to expand its impact in the coming years.

A motion was made by Dawn Marie Johnson and seconded by Nan Kelly five (5) votes “yes” on roll call, acknowledging the Sioux Falls Community Learning Centers Report.

Action 39673

Todd Vik, Business Manager, presented the Election Timeline as follows (MRF#19512):

South Dakota Codified Law §13-7-10 states “The annual election for school districts shall be held between the second Tuesday in April and the third Tuesday in June between the hours of seven a.m. and seven p.m. on the day of the election. The school board shall select the date of the election by resolution no later than the first regular meeting after January first of each year. …”

The Sioux Falls School District School Board will have two vacancies next year when the terms of Carly Reiter and Nan Kelly expire in July. In accordance with the Board Resolution passed July 10, 2023, which establishes four-year terms for all Board Members by 2028, the transition plan states that both 2025 vacancies shall be three-year terms (in 2028 they will be four-year terms). To fill the vacancies, the District must hold an election.

The school district is negotiating with Minnehaha County to help run the 2025 Sioux Falls School Board election.

A motion was made by Dawn Marie Johnson and seconded by Marc Murren five (5) votes “yes” on roll call, acknowledging the Election Timeline.

Action 39674

On motion by Gail Swenson and seconded by Dawn Marie Johnson five (5) votes “yes” on roll call, the School Board adjourned at 6:06 p.m.
