NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING FOR THE FACILITY PLAN FOR THE WATER RECLAMATION FACILITY EXPANSION AND CAPACITY IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT
Sioux Falls, South Dakota: The City of Sioux Falls is proposing the Water Reclamation Facility Expansion and Capacity Improvements project to increase capacity and improve the existing infrastructure at the Water Reclamation Facility.
The City of Sioux Falls Water Reclamation Facility was constructed in phases beginning in 1980 with the final phase completed in 1986. The original facility was designed to accommodate an average day flow of 13.4 MGD and a peak instantaneous flow of 27 MGD. As part of the 2009 Water Reclamation Facility Master Plan, the capacity of the facility was re-rated with an increase to 21 MGD average flow and 35 MGD peak equalized flow. With future growth of the city, the projected needs for the future of the facility are 30.1 MGD average daily flow and 57 MGD peak flow. In 2018, the Sioux Falls Wastewater Treatment and Collection System Master Plan was completed, which presented a review of the existing collection system and Water Reclamation Facility capacities, complete with a recommended capital improvements plan. The plan reflects the timing for the following needs: 1) provide reliability due to age and condition and avert risk for failure for the WRF and select lift stations; 2) increase existing and hydraulic capacity for growth for the WRF, collections systems, and lift stations; 3) increase organic capacity for growth at the WRF; 4) meet future growth needs; and 5) improve treatment operations. These improvements are proposed for construction in 2025–2027.
The City of Sioux Falls is seeking to borrow up to $32,761,000 from the Clean Water State Revolving Funds for 20 years at 3.5 percent interest rate for the Water Reclamation Facility Expansion.
The purpose of the public meeting is to discuss the proposed project list, the proposed financing, and the source of repayment for the loan. The public is invited to attend and comment on the project. Anyone unable to attend may submit written comments prior to the meeting to: Shannon Ausen, P.E., Engineering Program Manager, 231 N. Dakota Ave., P.O. Box 7402, Sioux Falls, SD 57117-7402, or by email at shannon.ausen@siouxfalls.gov.
The public meeting will be held at Sioux Falls City Center, 231 N. Dakota Ave., Conference Room #110 on First Floor, Sioux Falls, SD, on Monday, March 31, 2025, at 5 p.m.

PRESENTATION
Carey Deaver, Director of Human Resources, introduced Victoria McGrath from McGrath Consulting to provide a presentation on the job evaluation and compensation study. In August 2024, the Commission approved a contract with McGrath Human Resources Group for a job evaluation and compensation study. The study’s purpose was to review the County’s current job evaluation process, to conduct a salary and benefits survey; and to identify recommended pay structures for County positions. The presentation highlighted the following areas: study methodology, organizations surveyed, County demographics, factors impacting position classification, overall market standing, current matrix structure, and recommendations for new pay plans for full-time and election positions. The presentation also included recommendations for position classifications and overall compensation approaches. The next phase of the study will include discussions on which, if any, of the study components the Commission may select to implement.
RESOLUTION
Jason Gearman, Director of Emergency Management, presented a resolution to declare a fire danger in Minnehaha County prohibiting open burning. On March 20th, the National Weather Service issued a “Red Flag” warning for numerous counties in South Dakota, including Minnehaha. The Red Flag warning will most likely continue until our area receives some measurable rainfall. Due to the low humidity, dry and windy conditions, the Minnehaha County Rural Fire Chiefs Association is asking the Minnehaha County Commission to approve a resolution for a burn ban. Director Gearman recommends giving authority to the Commission Chair or the Rural Fire Commission Liaison to rescind the ban based upon conditions and input from the Rural Fire Chiefs Association President Mike Harstad. The proposed action is intended to prohibit open burning. An exception to the ban is allowed for the burning of a substance in a container that is sufficient to prohibit the escape of the burning substance, sparks, flames or hot ashes from the container. The proposed burn ban does not include cities within Minnehaha County.
MOTION by Kippley, seconded by Beninga, to Amend the Proposed Resolution by Adding a Section that the Prohibition on Open Burning may be Rescinded by the Chair of the Minnehaha County Board of County Commissioners and the designated Minnehaha County Rural Fire Department/Emergency Management Commissioner Liaison upon Consultation with the Minnehaha County Emergency Management Director and the Minnehaha County Rural Fire Chiefs. 5 ayes.
MOTION by Kippley, seconded by Bleyenberg, to Approve Resolution MC25-09, Declaring a Fire Emergency in Minnehaha County and Prohibiting Open Burning, as Amended. By roll call vote: 5 ayes.
RESOLUTION MC 25-09
DECLARING A FIRE EMERGENCY IN MINNEHAHA COUNTY AND PROHIBITING OPEN BURNING
WHEREAS, the Minnehaha County Board of County Commissioners is charged with protecting the health and safety of the citizens of Minnehaha County; and
WHEREAS, conditions of fire danger now exist due to the dry spring conditions, unseasonably warm temperatures, and windy conditions that are currently prevalent in Minnehaha County, South Dakota; and
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, BY THE MINNEHAHA COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS, based on the recommendations of the Minnehaha County Rural Fire Chiefs and the Minnehaha County Emergency Management Director, and under the authority of SDCL 7-8-20 (18), that a Fire Danger Emergency is hereby declared and all open burning as defined in Ordinance MC34-04, is hereby prohibited within the boundaries of Minnehaha County, South Dakota, exclusive of any incorporated municipality within the county; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that this prohibition on open burning may be rescinded by the Chair of the Minnehaha County Board of County Commissioners and the designated Minnehaha County Rural Fire Department/Emergency Management Commissioner Liaison upon consultation with the Minnehaha County Emergency Management Director and the Minnehaha County Rural Fire Chiefs that the declared Fire Danger Emergency no longer exists; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that this Resolution is declared to be necessary for the immediate preservation of public safety in accordance with the provisions of SDCL 7-18A-8 and is effective immediately and shall continue until in force and effect until it is rescinded as set forth above or rescinded by further action of the Minnehaha County Board of County Commissioners.
Dated this 25th day of March, 2025.

PRESENTATIONS
John Parker, Minnehaha Conservation District Manager, gave a presentation regarding the organization’s mission, services provided, project highlights including tree potting & irrigation and prairie and pollinator garden kits, education outreach including the Sioux Empire Water Festival and community garden and education space, and organization partners.
Leah Anderson, Auditor, presented a briefing on the Auditor’s Office and highlighted the variety of functions that the Auditor’s Office performs. As the county’s population grows, many areas of support that we offer continue to increase. The Auditor’s Office is not a revenue generator for the county, and the office spends a great deal of time apportioning funds that the county is just a pass-thru of. Those functions include accounting management (payables/liens/capital assets/payroll), document management, property tax administration, budget & finance management, and election management. Accounting management consists of accounts payable (vouchers and 1099 reporting), liens (County Aid and attorney fees-processing and payments), payroll (payroll tax reporting, payroll liabilities and W-2 reports) as well as general accounting functions. Some of the general accounting functions include capital asset tracking, financial statement preparation, account reconciliations (bank accounts & credit cards), insurance calculations, and journal entries, as well as the calculation of pass-thru funds (911/property tax/bank franchise fees). Document Management functions include recording all actions taken by the Commission Board, recording bid opening and requests for proposals, processing various alcoholic beverage licenses and medical cannabis licenses, scheduling various legal publications, tracking and filing of minutes, resolutions, and ordinances, along with managing public record requests. The Property Tax Administration is responsible for completing all property tax calculations and reports for Minnehaha County taxing entities and submitting that information to the Department of Revenue to ensure compliance with State law. An additional function of property tax administration is abatement calculations, adjustments, and flow of abatement throughout the process. Budget and finance management is responsible for the financial and budgetary programs of the entire county, including the following: annual audit, financial reports, budget process, supplements to budget, and grant management and assistance to departments. Auditor Anderson went on to highlight the responsibilities of election management, which include primary and general elections, support for municipal and school district elections, the maintaining of precinct boundaries, voter registration list maintenance, and assisting citizens with voter registration and absentee requests. Finally, the presentation highlighted the legislation that was focused on the elections as well as the department goals for the upcoming year.
Bill Hoskins, Museum Director, gave a briefing on the Siouxland Heritage Museums and highlighted information about the Old Courthouse Museum, Pettigrew Home and Museum, Irene Hall Museum Resources Center, and the Museum Outreach. In 2024, visitors come from 48 states and 27 foreign countries, with the busiest days being Saturday, Friday, Thursday, and Sunday. Also, in 2024, the Museum Staff presented 601 programs with 217 programs being held on-site and 384 off-site to 31,625 people. Director Hoskins explained that museum staff manage a collection of over 129,000 artifacts from the past perfect database. In an effort to expand public access to the museum collection, the museum moved to a new cloud-based management program. This has resulted in public access to the collection through PastPerfect and the Museum Website expanded to 89,000 artifacts. The presentation went on to highlight the conservation/special projects programs being undertaken, including the cleaning and re-leading of five stained-glass windows at the Old Courthouse Museums and other repairs at the Old Courthouse Museums. In addition, two Senator Richard F. Pettigrew’s canes were conserved at the Gerald R. Ford Conservation Center in Omaha. The museum can draw up to 4% of the average balance of the Endowment Fund, established in August 1993, over the last twelve quarters. Revenue from the Endowment comes into the budget for a specific purpose and is considered obligated funds. The fund has grown significantly over the years, resulting in greater support for museum operations. Finally, Museum Director Hoskins and the Museum staff will continue to build on our relationships and cooperative ventures to better serve the public. Great education programs, diverse exhibits, and outstanding customer service encourage the public to keep coming back.

ZONING APPEAL
Kevin Hoekman, Planner, gave a briefing on an appeal of a decision by the Joint Planning Commission to deny Conditional use Permit #25-10 to transfer one (1) building eligibility from Lots 2 & 3 Lacey’s 2nd Addition N1/2 to Lot B of Lacey’s Tract 2 N1/2 N1/2 all within Section 35-T102N-R49W Mapleton Township. The property is located east of the intersection of Bahnson Avenue and E 60th Street N. The petitioner and property owner are Glatco Company, LLP. The applicant is requesting to transfer building eligibility from a small undevelopable parcel to a platted lot near a paved road. The transfer would allow the building eligibility to be utilized for the construction of a single-family residence. The Joint Zoning Ordinance allows a transfer of building eligibility with approval of a conditional use permit. The development of this subdivision has taken place over several decades. Three houses exist in the subdivision on lots A, E, and D of Lacey’s Addition. One house was built prior to density zoning and uses on building eligibility. The other two houses use building eligibilities that were transferred to the subdivision with two separate conditional use permits in 1992. Lacey’s 2nd Addition was platted in 2006 by the Sioux Falls Development Foundation as a small strip of land between Lacey’s Addition and N Bahnson Avenue. Much of the surrounding land area was annexed into the City of Sioux Falls in 2007. The Joint Planning Commission heard the item at February 24, 2025, Planning Commission meeting. Both county and city planning staff recommended denial of the proposed transfer because of concerns about future land development in the area. The Joint Planning Commissions unanimously denied the request to transfer building eligibility. MOTION by Kippley, seconded by Beninga, to Defer the Appeal of a Decision by the Joint Planning Commission to Deny Conditional Use Permit #25-10 to April 22, 2025, Joint Sioux Falls City Council/Minnehaha County Commission Meeting. By roll call vote: 5 ayes. The City concurred.

CITY OF BALTIC BOARD OF EQUALIZATION MINUTES
March 21, 2025, 6:00 PM BALTIC CITY HALL
130 ST. OLAF AVENUE BALTIC, SOUTH DAKOTA
The City of Baltic convened as a board of equalization on March 21st, 2025. Members present were Interim Mayor & Alderman of Ward 2, Brian
McGreevy, Alderman of Ward 2, Edward Clark-Jessen, Alderman of Ward 1 Nikki Oien and Steve Boeve, and School Board Member Zach Nebben.
Chairman McGreevy called the meeting to order at 6:00 pm. Following is a record of the actions taken.
RDID# 020081 Owner: Steven & Lori Boeve
Legal: W 1/2 2 & ALL Lot 3 Block 2 BALTIC CITY ORIGINAL PLAT
Reason for objection: Boeve believes his property value is too high. Boeve stated his home is 13-25 years older than homes in the area with less value.
Motion: Referred to Minnehaha County Equalization.
Motion by: Brian McGreevy
Second by: Nikki Oien
Motion Carried.
Local Equalization Board’s reasoning: The board agreed that we do not have enough information to decide and felt he would need to discuss it with Minnehaha County.
RDID# 0020146 Owner: James & Trista Bohlem
Legal: Lot 3 Block 2 COOP ADDN TO CITY OF BALTIC
Reason for objection: The assessment for the home is 27% higher than last year with no improvements and is not accurate for valuation.
Motion: Reduce this building value assessment from $194,500 to value of $174,000. Keep the land value at $25,100 with a total property value of $199,100.
Motion by: Nikki Oien
Second by: Edward Clark-Jessen
Motion Carried.
Local Equalization Board’s reasoning: Board reviewed the area and recognized other newer homes in the area had a lower valuation and the home that was sold in November 2024 for $388,000 on Johnson Avenue that likely caused an increase in the area should not increase Bohlen’s valuation as it doesn’t compare to Bohlen’s home.
McGreevy made a motion to adjourn as a Board of Equalization, as there are no further objections to be heard. Oien seconded. Motion Carried.
