City Council Informational, 4 PM

Monthly Financial Report for June 2019, you will see that while the sales tax revenue has been steady (and better than last year) the lodging tax continues to falter while Air BNB in Sioux Falls and the state has had record growth. I really think it is time the Air BNBs in Sioux Falls pay some sort of lodging tax.

Housing update

Legislative priorities of council for 2020 session, The city council is still supporting TIFs even though there has never been a comprehensive independent study presented publicly on how they are economically beneficial. We have NO idea what benefit TIFs have been. I have the short answer for you; there have been little to know economic impact, if there was we would have seen a study years ago showing it.

They also are asking the state to help in funding paratransit for agency ride services, which I agree with.

You will see in the calendar below that the EC Campus Book Club meeting has been moved to August 1st.

I just shake my head when I see these kind of conflicts. The taxpayers of Sioux Falls are paying Unruh’s salary so she can represent it’s citizens in helping with more affordable housing in SIOUX FALLS while serving as the President of Tea’s Development Board.

I don’t have an issue with her serving in either position, but she needs to pick one or the other.

C’mon Paul! This isn’t Rocket Science, it’s ethics, and this one is easy.

Humor Satire Sioux Falls

Local TV station changes name to ‘DirectTVland’

In a daring attempt to bring back Direct TV coverage to a local TV station, the station has changed it’s name to ‘DirectTVland’.

“We have always been known as Stormland TV, but there is more to life than just storms and hospital advertising, so in attempt to entice Direct TV back, we felt it was the right thing to do,” said GM Kay Hosingjob.

We wondered why Direct TV decided to drop coverage.

Hosingjob simply answered, “Because they are jerks.”

We asked a competing TV station why they thought Direct TV dropped them.

“While they are chasing hospitals and storms we concentrate on what is important,” said GM Dave Phoodtruck with KFLY TV “like what small town makes the best sliders in South Dakota.”
