Laurel Ridge Addition & H-1) Section 23-T102N-R49W & N1/2 NE1/4 (Ex.

The petitioner and property owner is Nineteen Flags, LLC and the property is located between Slip Up Creek Road & Interstate 90, approximately 1 mile north of Sioux Falls. The district was approved with a requirement of only one driveway access on to Slip Up Creek Road.
