Gotta hand it to Mike, he figured out something in 3 days that Munson couldn’t figure out in 8 years; Infrastructure upgrades should be the city’s top priority. Well, I never said he was a dummy (Mike that is) And Mike is keeping at least one campaign promise. Fix the damn streets already;
SIOUX FALLS, SD – Back in February, mayoral candidate Mike Huether stood in front of the Chamber of Commerce building and said the city needs to do a better job of filling potholes.
Today, Mayor Mike Huether outlined details of a plan to reallocate $2 million to fix the problem.
It is estimated that the city is over $100 million behind on street repairs. So while $2 million will be a shot in the arm, it certainly won’t fix the problem. But I will give him credit for getting a jump on it. The 2011 budget will have to have a SIGNIFICANT amount of money going to road repairs. So sorry Zebras and Giraffes you will just have to wait another year for your new crappers.
