Yup, Weirdsville is ran by very ignorant people

WOW, Brandon (Weirdsville) has done it again. Another genius move. Remember when they tried to raise property taxes to build baseball fields? Well this one takes the cake, or should I say the cowpie. They are proposing to build a wastewater lagoon next to 3 important waterways. They are tired of paying Sioux Falls to ship their crap to us. Believe it or not, the very public works director that was pouring sewage down SF city streets and into Covell Lake made a presentation to the SF city council  (FF: 1:06:30) about how this site is worrisome. Yeah, Mark, you ain’t a kidding.

If the very guy who didn’t have a problem with pouring poop down our city streets is ‘worried’ about this lagoon proposal, we should be worried. My suggestion is to make Huset’s speedway into a lagoon, it will get a good use for once 🙂 Or better yet make the city of Brandon the Poo version of Venice and have the crap run down the streets. That would make Automania interesting.

Neighborhood Summit this Saturday

neighborhood-summit-2014.ashx

I hope to attend the summit;

Saturday, November 8, 2014, from 8 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
Anne Zabel Studio Theater at the Orpheum Theater Center

Jim Diers is the guest speaker, if you don’t know much about Jim, read up. We are very lucky to have him speak. I have oodles of questions for Jim about property rights, code enforcement, public transit and urban sprawl. I have a feeling his answers won’t sit well with the city administration.

When is Minnehaha County Commission & SF City Council gonna work together

Prime examples in the past, McGovern School flagpole rezone, election precincts, law enforcement and jails, etc. Now the city picks a different ambulance provider;

The city’s selection could jeopardize a recently renewed arrangement between Minnehaha County and Rural Metro to provide ambulance service in unincorporated areas around Sioux Falls.

Commissioners said last month that the contract might fall through if Rural Metro lost its contract to serve Sioux Falls.

Rural Metro Division General Manager Mike Stuhr said they were disappointed by the news and that they’re evaluating what to do with its Minnehaha County contract.

While I am not going to question the city’s selection OR the county’s selection, I wonder why they couldn’t come to an agreement together. Now the county has to revisit the situation. I’m not sure why the city continually has to poke the county in the eye. It’s time to get over it. What the city doesn’t realize, when you constantly screw with the county, it costs US money, the very people who pay taxes to both entities. Yes the ambulance providers don’t charge tax payers, but there are other costs involved.

This tit for tat is getting really old.
