LIQUOR LICENSE PUBLIC HEARING

            Kym Christiansen, Commission Recorder, was present for the public hearing and presented an application for Retail (On-Off Sale) Malt Beverage & SD Farm Wine License submitted by Pilot's Roadhouse. The property is legally described as E10 Rds N 14 Rds NE 1/4 (Ex Rd) Section 33-T102N-R50W and is located at 4901 N Ellis Road, Sioux Falls. The license would allow for the sale of malt beverages and SD Wine at their establishment located in Minnehaha County. The application was sent to the Sheriff's Office, State's Attorney's Office, and Planning Department for review and there were no concerns or objections reported. The fee for a new Retail (On-Off Sale) Malt Beverage License & SD Farm Wine License is $300.00 plus a $55.00 publishing fee. 

            Chair Bender asked for proponents and opponents to speak on the topic. Michael Meendering, applicant and proponent, spoke in favor of the issuance of the Retain (On-Off Sale) Malt Beverage & SD Farm Wine License. There was no one in attendance to speak in opposition to the license.

            MOTION by Beninga, seconded by Karsky, to approve a Retail (On-Off Sale) Malt Beverage & SD Farm Wine License for Pilot's Roadhouse located at the property legally described as E 10 Rd N 14 Rds NE 1/4 (Ex. RD) Section 33-T102N-R50W. By roll call vote: 4 ayes.

REZONING PUBLIC HEARING

            Mason Steffen, Planner, was present for the public hearing and gave the second reading of an amendment to the 1990 Revised Zoning Ordinance for the Minnehaha County. The amendment, Rezone #23-04, is to rezone from an A-1 Agricultural District to the RR Rural Residential for the property legally described as Tract 1 Schreur's Addition (Ex. Lot H-2) E 1/2 Section 24-T103N-R49W, Sverdrup Township, located along County Highway 121 (478th Avenue), and is approximately seven miles west of Garretson. The property is a parcel of land that is approximately 15.00 acres. The property owner and petitioner is Peter Bendorf. The rezone will allow for residential development and subdivision of the proposed property. The RR Rural Residential Zoning District has a minimum lot size of one acre so the proposed rezoning would have the potential to add up to fifteen individual residential lots. The proposed area to be rezoned is currently a fifteen-acre residential acreage with one single-family dwelling. At the June 26, 2023 Planning Commission meeting, several neighbors to the subject property expressed their concerns regarding the proposed rezoning. These included traffic concerns, concerns regarding the preservation of farmland, and concerns regarding building eligibilities. The Planning staff have concerns with this request regarding density zoning and adding a cluster of residential properties in the agricultural production area of the county, where residential development should be limited to the available building eligibilities. In addition, this rezoning for a small parcel of land is approved, it could lead to similar requests across the county. The Envisions 2035 Comprehensive Plan for Minnehaha County includes the subject property within the agricultural production area of the county. The plan also states that the primary purpose of the agricultural production area is to protect, preserve, and promote agricultural use and the economic viability for farming operations. This request does not meet the goals that are stated in Envision 2035. The Planning Commission unanimously voted to recommend denial of rezoning request.

            Chair Bender asked for proponents and opponents to speak on the topic. Peter Bendorf, petitioner and proponent, spoke in favor of the rezoning and stated the rezone would fit into the Envision 2035 plan and would not be harmful to agricultural activities in the area. There was no attendance to speak in opposition to the rezoning request.

            Commission discussion included the request fitting in to the Envision 2035 plan along with highlighting the need for development in the area.

            MOTION by Karsky, seconded by Bleyenberg, to uphold the recommendation of the Planning Commission and deny the rezoning from A-1 Agriculture to RR Rural Residential for the property legally described as Tract 1 Schreur's Addition (Ex. Lot H-2) E 1/2 Section 24-T103N-R49W, Sverdrup Township. By roll call vote: 4 ayes.

SPEED ZONE ORDINANCE PUBLIC HEARING

            Steve Groen, Highway Superintendent, was present for the second reading of an ordinance providing for the establishment of speed zones on the Minnehaha County Highway System. In April of 2021, a speed zone was adopted to enable enforcement of speed limits under 55 mph of County Highways. Since 2021, growth within Crooks has made it necessary to adjust speed zones. The proposed changes requested by the City of Crooks all occur along County Highway 137 (470th Ave). The proposed ordinance would replace the ordinance from April 2021. MOTION by Karsky, seconded by Beninga, to adopt Ordinance MC 65-23 for the Establishment of Speed Zones on the County Highway System. By roll call vote: 4 ayes.

ORDINANCE MC 65-23

            Beaner moved to 629-633 Main Avenue Building – Council Update

            City Building Inspector JR Hofer addressed the public in attendance and city council to provide an update on the building located at 629-633 Main Avenue in Garretson.

629/633 N. Main Garretson

Summary/Council update

            On June 22nd, 2023, I was doing follow-up on the location regarding a stop work order that had been previously issued for unpermitted construction. While at the building I noticed that the south side of the structure was showing signs of movement that I had not previously noticed. There was cracking in the facia that appeared to be recent.  I took photos of the building and contacted Rise Structural Associates to discuss the situation and set up a structural inspection.  I sent photos of the areas of concern per their request. I was told that it could be 5 to 10 days out on an onsite inspection.

            Around 9:15 am on Sunday June 25th, 2023, I was contacted by members of the Garretson Fire Department requesting me to the address for a “partial collapse” Upon my arrival I was informed that there was a Minnehaha Deputy enroute. When Deputy Aanenson arrived on scene, he and I spoke with Keith Haffer owner of the neighboring property (621 main) briefly. Mr. Haffer asked Deputy Aanenson about filling out a report. Deputy Anenson informed Haffer that this was a civil matter and would need to be addressed by his insurance company and the insurer of the building next door (629).

            While speaking with Mr. Haffer he showed us the damage in his building. There was a fluorescent light that had been knocked loose from the ceiling and some ceiling tile damage. I did not have any reason to further investigate damage at this location, as it was clear there was no structural integrity issue. Mr. Haffer asked me if they needed to stay out of their building, I informed him that they were free to enter their building as they needed.

            I then completed an exterior visual inspection of the 629/633 property and noted that a large section of the façade on the south wall had given way. The debris had fallen between 629 and 621 N. Main, with some of the debris falling onto the roof of 621 N. Main. Due to the amount of façade that had fallen and the condition of the materials that were remaining, I made the determination that the building in it current state was unsafe for occupation.

            At that time the Deputy and I entered the building so I could inform the tenants that I was ordering an evacuation of the property. While upstairs of 629 I was able to inspect the apartment on the South side of the building nearest the collapse area. This area had signs of water intrusion from the damaged wall as well as considerable water damage from the roof area.

            Mr. Brian Persing was the contractual purchaser of the property per utility records on file with the City So I made contact with him. The two of us were able to contact the tenants to inform them of the situation and informed them to vacate. A temporary barricade was set up around the building and it was made secure from entry. The building was posted with the proper signage and ordinance statement. 

            Monday June 26th, I reached out to Rise Structural Associates in Sioux Falls again. I spoke to Justin Christenson about the events that had transpired over the weekend. He agreed to see what he could do to expedite my request for a structural inspection.

            The City Attorney was also contacted and filled in on the specifics of the situation. I was advised as to the requirements to comply with public safety. These steps had been or were in the process of being addressed at that time.

            Mr. Ken Leedy was also contacted about the situation as he is listed as the legal deed holder on the property.

            Wednesday June 28th, 2023, Mayor Beaner and I met with Brian Persing at the building location to perform an inspection of areas of the structure that were previously not accessible. This included the lower and main levels of 629 and 633. The inspection raised more concern regarding the structural integrity of the building. Photos were taken and forwarded to Rise Structural.  Rise Structural reached out to schedule inspection for the following day.

            Thursday June 29th, 2023, Chris Hamilton, a Registered Professional Engineer with Rise Structural associates met me onsite for an inspection. Mr. Hamilton and I went through the building where he took notes and photos for his report. Following the inspection, he informed me that it would take a few days to get the report compiled and it would be sent out. 

            July 7th, 2023, I received a 15-page structural report from Rise.  After reviewing the report, I found no information that would compel me to allow occupancy in the structure.

            July 14th,2023, a meeting was held with Mr. Leedy and the Mayor to go over the report. There was a delay in getting this meeting scheduled due to conflicts in people’s availability, it was important that all involved be able to attend. Mr. Persing was notified of this meeting but did not attend. The report was gone over with Mr. Leedy, and I informed him that the building occupancy could not be re-instated until the listed issues were corrected. Mr. Leedy acknowledged the issues and was understanding of the situation. It was decided that due to the condition of the structure and the exorbitant price to remedy the issues, the building would be razed. 

            Current status is as follows, due to the location of the building, our attorney has provided us with an agreement to be signed by Mr. Leedy that will expedite the process of abatement. The City will have the building removed and costs will be accessed back to the property. We are currently waiting for cost estimates on the removal of this building. An electrical disconnect request has been submitted, water is off to the building, gas is turned off and meters are going to be removed with line being capped at alley.

            Other notes to mention, throughout this process I have received several phone calls from the Haffers, I have kept them up to speed on the process while reminding them that their property issues are between the property owners. I never told them that they could not enter their building, or that they could not get their roof fixed. I mention these specifically because they had their insurance adjuster call me to discuss those topics. The city has followed all requirements to protect the public from danger during this on-going situation.

            Executive Session: Pursuant of SDCL 125-2 (1), (2), (3), (4), (5)

            Council discussion ensued and at 6:50PM councilmen Hoskins motioned to move into executive session for contract discussions. Brown seconded to motion and the council entered executive session and members of the public left the council chambers.

            7:03 PM Hoskins declared out of executive session and members of the public reentered council chambers.

            Council returned to the first reading of Ordinance 691-2024 Appropriations – Dreckman presented the 2024 budget to members of the council. Discussion ensued and no action was taken as first reading only.

            7:47PM Rotert motioned to adjourn meeting. Hoskins seconded the motion. 6 Ayes 0 Nays. Motion passed.

            Meeting Adjourned.
