City Council 2020 (2nd) Budget Hearing, 2:30 PM
Budget presentations on Finance department, Public Works, Parks & Recreation, Transit, and City Attorney’s office.
City Council Regular Meeting, 7 PM
Item #7, Approval of Contracts, City hires a company to refurbish the waterslides at Terrace Park. I don’t have a concern about the price, I just wanted to commend the city’s purchasing department for their well thought out selection process. It must have been hard to find a company to do this. The name of the contractor? The Slide Experts 🙂
Another $50K going to the Bunker Ramp legal problems. But you know folks, it will be great someday.
Item #30-31, The new liquor supermarket, Williquors is asking for a beer & wine license for a VL casino bar (apparently that will be attached to the store)
Item #39, 2nd Reading, The city council will take a final stab at the casino ordinance that will allow Sioux Falls casinos to create imaginary lines between establishments. I think they are opening a can of worms.
Item #47, Council takes another leap at their legislative priorities.
Item #50, Appointment of peeps to citizen boards. Mayor TenHaken appointed two new members to the Parks Board. One lives in the northeast part of the city and the other in the central part, so that is good.
EVENTS CENTER BOOK CLUB MEETING (Wednesday, August 21, 8:30 AM, Convention Center).
I think they will make their final recommendations.
