Farrel Christensen
Farrel Christensen, Building Official, reported that at the December
2nd noon meeting the Historic Preservation Commission requested that
the City Council change the ordinance to require building permits for
roofing and siding work with the consensus to make the ordinance
changes. Farrel handed out a draft ordinance that provides for a
building permit for roofing and siding amendment to the International
Residential Code and International Building Code, noting that the
language is the same in each. Farrel noted that the siding permit is
required if more than 50% of any building wall surface is being
replaced or repaired in any given 5-year period and for reroofing a
permit is required when more than 50% of any building roof surface is
being replaced or repaired in any given 5-year period. Farrel stated
that the 50% is provided in the building code and most all other cities
in SD require permits for roofing and siding. Discussion followed on
the permit requirement. Farrel noted that, as to the fee, the current
charge for a window permit is $25 and he would propose that a permit
for reroofing or siding also be $25 and for a combination of windows,
roofing and siding the fee be $40. Discussion followed on the fee and
on the building permit process. The consensus was to bring the draft
ordinance forward for Council consideration.

7. Old Business
A. Second Reading of Ordinance 1395 establishing Business Improvement
District #2 to complete streetscape improvements in the downtown business
as defined by Resolution
James Purdy, Assistant City Manager, reported that the City Council and
the Business Improvement District (BID) #2 Board of Directors have been
discussing an infrastructure project commonly referenced as the Downtown
Streetscape Project for the last couple of years. James noted that the
eligible streetscape improvement expenses may include: removal and
reconstruction of sidewalks, removal and reconstruction of street
pavement as needed, removal and reconstruction of curb and gutter,
construction of landscaping features, signage, street lighting,
landscaping, storm sewer improvements, and necessary staffing for the
consultant to execute these efforts. James reported that the City does
not anticipate losing any public parking spaces to this project and may
see a net gain. James stated that a goal for the project design will be
to avoid any complete street closures during construction and the
consultant will be expected to find creative ways to limit the affect
the construction has on business operations. James reported that the BID
#2 Board is made up of four downtown business owners and one downtown
resident. James stated that a resolution establishing the boundaries of
BID #2 was passed on April 16, 2018. James noted that the BID #2 Board
has had several meetings over the last year to develop a plan and a
proposed funding mechanism. James noted that the Bid #2 Board has had
two public input meetings and multiple discussions with downtown property
owners. James reported that the BID #2 Board presented a plan that the
City Council accepted at the October 7, 2019 City Council meeting and
first reading of the ordinance was approved at the December 2, 2019
3
meeting. James stated that the cost would be split between the City and
the owners of taxable property within the Business Improvement District
at a ratio of 82% paid by the City and 18% paid by the owners of taxable
property. James stated that the property owner’s portion of the project
cost would be paid in the form of a special assessment that will be based
on actual project costs minus any grants and donations, and implemented
in accordance with state statute. James noted that the special assessment
would be 18% of the total cost of the project divided amongst property
owners in two different areas (with two different rates) within the BID.
James stated that the special assessment shall be payable in ten equal
annual installments. James reviewed the estimated funding for the project
noting the actual amount of the special assessment will be calculated
after the project is completed. James recommended approval of second
reading of Ordinance No. 1395 Establishing Business Improvement District
#2 unless additional information is presented.
Paul Hasse, Vermillion Resident, questioned why all the sidewalks are
being replaced as not all need to be replaced. Paul stated that the
street light poles do not need to be replaced just the light fixtures as
the City has done in other areas of the city. Paul requested that the
diagonal parking spaces be made wider and the bump outs can be removed
to add parking and loading zones. Paul stated that the bump outs interfere
with semi-truck traffic. Paul was concerned about what might be found
when the sidewalks are removed by the old buildings. Paul asked the
Council to tour the area to inspect the sidewalks and street lights.
Paul questioned why the assessment was not made on front footage and
noted the ordinance is not needed in the downtown.
John Prescott, City Manager, noted that the street light poles have
reached the end of their life and need to be replaced. Jose Dominguez,
City Engineer, stated that the assessments are not on front footage but
on benefit and this is why the BID #2 Board divided the properties into
Area A and Area B based upon the benefit. Discussion followed.
354-19
Second reading of title to Ordinance No. 1395 entitled an Ordinance
Adding Chapter 122, which Establishes a Business Improvement District
No. 2 within the Municipal Limits of the City of Vermillion for the

District of the City of Vermillion, South Dakota.
Mayor Powell read the title to the above named Ordinance, and Alderman
Collier-Wise moved adoption of the following:
BE IT RESOLVED that the minutes of this meeting shall show that the title
to the proposed Ordinance No. 1395 entitled An Ordinance Adding Chapter
4

122.03 New properties within the district. Pursuant to the provisions of
SDCL 9-55, BID #2 may be amended to include new businesses constructed
or established within these boundaries.
122.04 Purpose of the district. BID#2 is created for the purpose of
funding a portion of the project that would renovate the Central Business
District (referred to as the Downtown Streetscape Project). The public
improvements may include: removal and reconstruction of sidewalks,
removal and reconstruction of street pavement as needed, removal and
reconstruction of curb and gutter, construction of landscaping features,
signage, street lighting, landscaping, storm sewer improvements, and
necessary staffing for the consultant to execute these efforts.
122.05 Funding. This cost would be split between the City and the owners
of taxable property within the Business Improvement District at a rate
of 82 percent City funding and 18 percent BID #2 funds from a special
assessment imposed on the properties within the district. The rate of
special assessment will be dependent on whether a property is within Area
8
A or Area B, and will be based on the total cost of construction reduced
by the amount of any grants or donations received for the project.
Furthermore, the owners within Area A will pay a special assessment
amount of 0.162 times the total cost of the project divided by 69. The
owners within Area B will pay a special assessment amount of 0.018 times
the total cost of the project divided by 23. The special assessments
are to be payable in ten (10) equal installments at zero (0) percent
interest. The City Finance Officer shall deposit BID #2 funds into a
separate fund established for BID #2. Any grants and donations to the
project shall be deducted from the total cost of the project prior to
the cost being divided amongst the owners of Area A and Area B.
122.06 Penalties for failure to pay special assessment. The special
assessment shall be payable in ten (10) equal annual installment with
the amount determined after completion of construction based on total
construction costs less any grants or donations received as of the
assessment date. Any assessment or installment not paid within thirty
(30) days after filing the approved assessment role in the Finance Office
shall be collected under Plan One, collection by the County Treasurer,
as set forth in SDCL 9-43. All current and deferred installments shall
bear zero (0) percent interest and any delinquent payment shall bear
interest at the rate of ten (10%) per annum.
122.07 Creation of business improvement board of directors. The BID #2
Board of Directors is hereby established. The Mayor shall appoint the
members of the Board of Directors, subject to the approval of the City
Council. There shall be five (5) members of the BID #2 Board of Directors
whose terms shall be three years, except at time of establishment, in
which, two members shall serve for a one year term, two members for a
two year term, and one member for a three year term.
122.08 Severability. Should any section, clause or provision of this
article be declared by the courts to be invalid, the same shall not
affect the validity of the article as a whole or any part thereof, other
than the part declared to be invalid.
122.09 Reporting. The Board of Directors shall make annual
recommendations for project improvements and/or changes along with method
to the Finance Office that are consistent with the City’s “Plan”, funding
and purpose as noted above, and SDCL 9-55-3, as amended.

A. Resolution authorizing submitting a grant application to the SD DENR
for recycling center renovations
John Prescott, City Manager, reported that the need for improvements to
the Recycling Center building for the safety of the public using the
facility, employees working in the building, and to improve the flow of
the work has been discussed for several years. John stated that Burns &
McDonnell Engineering was hired earlier this year to complete an
evaluation of the facility. John noted that the City Council visited the
Recycling Center as part of the July 1, 2019 noon meeting to observe the
conditions and the engineering consultant’s recommendations. John noted
that the engineering consultant originally presented a large project that
likely would not be feasible to finance and City staff worked with the
consultant to develop a phased approach to completing the needed
upgrades. John stated that the first phase of the project would address
separating the public drop-off area from the work area, constructing a
fire rated wall, installation of a fire detection and smoke/heat removal
system, separating the work area ventilation from the office area
ventilation, and constructing an ADA accessible restroom. John reported
that included in the packet is a summary memo of the renovations needed
per the Burns & McDonnell report. John noted that the summary was
presented to the Joint Powers Board which recommended approval of
submitting the grant application at their December 4, 2019 meeting. John
reported that the resolution would allow for the submission of a grant
application to the SD DENR including planning and design fees, inspection
fees, and contingency as well as project costs. John stated that grant
funds of 50% of the total project cost of $686,650 are being requested
and would be matched by Joint Powers reserve funds. John stated that the
grant application would be considered by DENR at their late March
meeting. Discussion followed on the grant and Recycling Center.

Disposal, LLC - Lonnie Fischer, Operator; Art’s Garbage Service -
Division of Waste Connections; Vermillion Garbage Service - Marty
Johnson, Owner, and Waste Management of Sioux City Iowa. Mike noted that,
as part of the renewal, applicants were requested to include any

response on the license application that was included in the packet.

John Prescott, City Manager, reported that SECOG has coordinated an
effort over the last year to update the hazard mitigation pre-disaster
plan for Clay County. John noted that the last plan was completed in
2013. John reported that, to develop an update to the plan, a series of
five meetings were held in Vermillion between October 2018 and June 2019
with participation from Elected officials, City and County staff members,
and private utilities in Clay County. John stated that the purpose of
the plan is to guide efforts in Clay County both in Vermillion and rural
areas to reduce the impacts of significant hazards as well as to reduce
the effects of these hazards. John stated that the plan is also designed
to help prevent and mitigate costs due to post hazard events. John
reported that the plan identified hazards and assessed the risks
historically faced by Clay County. John stated that the plan incorporates
a mitigation strategy that encompassed a set of goals, objectives, and
action steps to help mitigate and minimize damages imposed by hazards.
John stated that the complete plan is available for review at the SECOG
website or at City Hall. John stated that SECOG received a grant to
cover their staff time spent developing the plan update. John noted that
having a current plan which identifies potential hazards may enable the
County and jurisdictions within the County to receive grant funding to
address items related to disasters. John recommended approval of the
resolution to adopt the Clay County multi-hazard pre-disaster mitigation
plan update.

fee schedule has been annually presented to the City Council in order to
offer a comprehensive list of fees and to make adjustments as needed.
John stated there are still changes in fees during the year. John noted
that many sections of the City Code contain language that indicate a fee
is set by resolution. John reported that there are three documents
included in the packet. John stated that one document provides a complete
listing of all City fees, whether provided for in City Code, Departmental
policy, or State statute. John noted that on this document the option of
a disk for pictures from the Fire Department was added and a couple of
drugs that are no longer used by EMS in providing patient care were
removed from the list. John stated that the second document lists all of
the fees that are set by resolution as provided for in the City of
Vermillion’s Code of Ordinances and the third document is a resolution
that provides for a couple of fee changes for EMS, the addition of new
patient care drugs, and clarification of the impound lot storage fee.
John noted that having a comprehensive list of fees provides City Council
and staff with a resource that can be utilized when questions of cost
are presented. John stated that these documents also serve as a resource
when members of the City Council or Administrative staff want to evaluate
fees. John stated that, following the approval of the above fee changes,
the fee schedule will be updated completely and posted on the City of
Vermillion webpage. John recommended approval of the Fee schedule
detailing all fees set by resolution, the Master fee schedule detailing

6. Public Hearing; item a
Council Agenda Memo
From: Mike Carlson, Finance Officer
Meeting: January 6, 2020
Subject: A retail on-off sale malt beverage and retail on-off sale wine and cider
licenses for R&D Management, LLC for El Fredo Pizza at 831 East Cherry
Street
Presenter: Mike Carlson
Background: An application was received for a retail on-off sale malt beverage and retail
on-off sale wine and cider licenses from R&D Management, LLC for El Fredo Pizza at
831 East Cherry Street. The Police Chief’s report and notice of hearing are included in
the packet. The retail on-off sale wine and cider license is for the licensing period from
issuance to expiration on December 31, 2020 while the on-off sale malt beverage license
is for the licensing period from issuance to expiration on June 30, 2020.
Discussion: The City Council has the ability to issue a license on two criteria: suitable
applicant and suitable location. As to the suitable applicant, the stockholders of R&D
Management, LLC, Dale Hein and Ronald Kurtz, have submitted the information for the
DCI and FBI background check. The DCI background check was received by the Police
Chief and his memo states there is no criminal record for Dale Hein. Ronald Kurtz’s
record has an arrest/conviction for Domestic Assault in 2005, a DWI in 2006, and a DWI
in 2007. The Police Chief’s memo noted none of the three convictions would be
considered a “Disqualifying Criminal Record” under City Ordinance 112.20. With
respect to the location criteria, City Code section 112.21, requires the City Council to
determine whether a retail alcohol beverage license application proposes a suitable
location before issuing or renewing said license. This location was previously occupied
by Little Italy who had been issued malt beverage and wine license. The following are the
city ordinances on suitable applicant and suitable location.
§ 112.20 SUITABLE APPLICANT.
(A) South Dakota Codified Law § 35-2-1.2 requires the City Council to determine whether
retail alcohol beverage license applicants are suitable before issuing, transferring or renewing said
licenses. This determination is required annually for each license the applicant seeks. In order to
effectuate a thorough determination of suitable applicant eligibility for license issuance, new
6. Public Hearing; item a
applicants must submit to a criminal background check to determine suitability. Each new applicant
shall make arrangements with a law enforcement agency and submit to the fingerprinting process.
The applicant must also provide to law enforcement payment to the South Dakota Division of
Criminal Investigation and FBI in an amount necessary to cover the costs of the criminal record
check. These actions must be taken by an applicant prior to publication of hearing notice required by
South Dakota law. The applicant's completed application will be attached to the certification of the
law enforcement agency when received.
(B) A DISQUALIFYING CRIMINAL RECORD for alcoholic beverage license purposes
means any conviction for any felony, a crime of violence as defined in SDCL § 22-1-2(9), a sex
offense as defined in SDCL § 22-24B-1, or trafficking in controlled drugs or substances which when
and where committed would constitute such in the state of South Dakota. Unpardoned convictions of
any crime of moral turpitude as defined by SDCL § 22-1-2(25) which when and where committed
would constitute such in the state of South Dakota may constitute a disqualifying record as
determined by the City Council on a case-by-case basis. Any criminal conviction not disclosed by an
applicant on his application form may be treated as a disqualifying record. Any criminal conviction
may be considered in making license issuance decision. Suspended imposition of sentence will not
be considered a conviction.
(C) An applicant subject to this policy shall provide to the law enforcement agency
performing the fingerprinting process cash, check, or money order in an amount necessary to cover
the costs of fingerprints for the criminal record check.
(D) An applicant or principal in any business entity that is an applicant having any
indebtedness to the city must satisfy said indebtedness before the City Council will consider any
application for alcoholic beverage license issuance or renewal, except for plan one or two special
assessment obligations that are not in arrears.
§ 112.21 SUITABLE LOCATION.
(A) South Dakota Codified Laws § 35-2-1.2 requires the City Council to determine whether
retail alcohol beverage license applications propose suitable locations before issuing or renewing
said licenses. This determination is required annually for each license the applicant seeks. The
following are nonexclusive criteria established to assist in determining suitable location status:
(1) Identification of a garbage hauler to be utilized by the business and the frequency of the
garbage pickup;
(2) Zoning restrictions, and
(3) Neighborhood characteristics.
(B) In determining suitable location, the City Council will also utilize factors developed
through South Dakota case law. This includes the manner in which the business is operated; the
extent to which minors frequent or are employed in such place of business; the adequacy of police
facilities to properly police the proposed location, and other factors associated with the sale of
alcoholic beverages, such as noise and litter.
§ 112.22 SUITABLE APPLICANT AND SUITABLE LOCATION CONSIDERATION.
(A) South Dakota codified laws and case law support the premise that the decision to issue
an alcoholic beverage license is discretionary. Therefore, the city hereby establishes a two-tiered
process to evaluate on-sale liquor applications. The first tier will assess the suitability of the
applicant or principals and whether the location is suitable according to §§ 112.20 and 112.21 of this
chapter.
6. Public Hearing; item a
(B) Upon finding evidence of the suitability of the applicant and location, the City Council
will consider second tier criteria. This process can include examining the best location for economic
and tourism development, the best ancillary uses (restaurant, etc.) developed with the sale of liquor,
the best location in accordance with the city long-range plan, the size of the facility, parking
facilities, closeness to existing supplementing businesses, residences, and activities deemed
important by the City Council.
Financial Consideration: The fee is $500 for the retail on-off sale wine and cider
license, which is all retained by the City. The fee for the retail on-off sale malt beverage
license is $300 with the city retaining half ($150) of the license fee.
Conclusion/Recommendations: Following the input from the public hearing, the City
Council is asked to make a decision on the approval or denial of the retail on-off sale
malt beverage and retail on-off sale wine and cider licenses for R&D Management, LLC
for El Fredo Pizza at 831 East Cherry Street. If a motion is made to deny a license, the
reason needs to be included in the motion.

I have reviewed the application for a new alcohol beverage license for El Fredo Pizza to be located at 831
E. Cherry Street. This is a new license request for a new business.
I have reviewed the department records for the applicants, Dale Hein and Ronald Kurtz. There are no
department records that would reflect negatively on this application. The South Dakota Division
Criminal Investigations has no criminal record for Dale Hein. Ronald Kurtz has a criminal record showing
an arrest/conviction for Domestic Assault in 2005, a DWI in 2006 and another DWI in 2007. None of the
three convictions would be considered a “Disqualifying Criminal Record” under City Ordinance 112.20.
I have no additional information pertaining to this application.

Council Agenda Memo
From: John Prescott, City Manager
Meeting: January 6, 2020
Subject: 2020 Payroll Resolution
Presenter: John Prescott
Background: State statute requires the publication of the complete list of all salaries of
officers and employees of the City. The City of Vermillion has traditionally passed a
resolution at the first City Council meeting of the year adopting the salaries, which is then
included in the meeting minutes. A change in employee pay during the course of the year
is reported with the City Council minutes following the adjustment. The state law with
respect to the publication of payroll information is as follows:
6-1-10. Publication of payroll information. Notwithstanding the provisions of §§7-18-3, 9- 18-1, and
13-8-35, the boards of county commissioners, the governing board of each municipal corporation,
and school boards shall publish, with the minutes of the first meeting following the beginning of the
fiscal year, or within thirty days thereafter, or in the minutes of the first meeting following the
completion of salary negotiations with employees for that fiscal year, or within thirty days
thereafter, a complete list of all the salaries of all officers and employees and, thereafter, shall
publish once any salary paid to any officer or employee who has been added or whose salary has
been increased.
Discussion: Three-year collective bargaining agreements were negotiated and approved
by the City Council in November and December 2018. The City has two collective
bargaining agreements with AFSCME and one collective bargaining agreement with
FOP. All three agreements cover the years of 2019, 2020 and 2021. The agreements
generally provide for a 2.5% cost of living adjustment in 2020 for employees covered by
either of the two AFSCME agreement and the FOP agreement. Some employees may
receive slightly more or slightly less than 2.5% change in their wage as corrections are
made to the pay schedules to develop a consistent format.
The attached resolution also provides for a 2.5% increase for non-union, professional,
and management employees. The last several years the City Council has received the
same cost of living adjustment as provided to employees. The payroll resolution includes
a 2.5% increase in City Council wages for 2020.
8. New Business; item a
Also of note, the South Dakota minimum wage increased to $9.30 per hour on January 1,
2020. This adjustment is reflected on the attached resolution for applicable employees.
Financial Consideration: The 2020 budget includes sufficient funding to cover the wage
rates reflected in the salary resolution.
Conclusion/Recommendations: Administration recommends the City Council approve
the resolution and authorize the publication thereof as required by law.
