Second reading of Emergency Ordinance No. 1418 to amend Title XI, Chapter 112 amending Section 112.01 Special Event Definitions and 112.18 amending Special Event Licensing to include current license holders John Prescott, City Manager, reported that, at the June 15, 2020 regular meeting and a special meeting on June 22, 2020, the City Council completed two readings and adopted Emergency Ordinance No. 1415. John stated that the emergency ordinance amended the special event definition and provided that current license holders could apply for a special event license. John stated that the emergency ordinance is only effective for a sixty- day period and expires on August 24, 2020 at midnight. John reported that expiring Emergency Ordinance No. 1415 and the current Emergency Ordinance No. 1418 under consideration for adoption are related to the COVID-19 pandemic where the need to social distance and utilize outdoor gatherings when possible are encouraged. John stated that Emergency Ordinance No. 1418 again does the same two things as Emergency Ordinance No. 1415 accomplished for 60 days. John stated that the first change is to amend the definition of “Special Event” to remove 112.01 (4) “The event is conducted without the intention of commercial or personal gain or profit” and the second change is to 112.18(C) to provide that current license holders could be issued special licenses that correspond to the license(s) they are currently issued to include on-sale liquor. John stated that the special license(s) for current license holders can be issued without a public hearing as a public hearing was held when the business was issued their existing license(s). John noted that this special license issued to a business adjoining the closed parking spaces or alley would allow for alcoholic beverages to be purchased in the business and taken outside. John noted that the license holder is still responsible to make sure the patron does not leave the designated area and will need to keep the sidewalks open for pedestrian traffic. John noted that if second reading is approved there are other items on the agenda that will need to be addressed for setting the fee, closing of parking spaces for special events and issuing special events licenses. Discussion followed. 248-20 Second reading of title to Emergency Ordinance No. 1418 entitled an Ordinance Amending sections 112.01 and 112.18 special events definitions and to expand special licensing to include special on-sale liquor 4 licenses issued to current license holders of the City of Vermillion for the City of Vermillion, South Dakota.

Second reading of Emergency Ordinance No. 1419 to require signage at the entrance to buildings open to the public that states Face Coverings Expected. John Prescott, City Manager, noted that the City Council has approved a resolution to promote the use of the face coverings or face masks inside of buildings which are open to the public. John noted that the City Council at the August 3, 2020 regular meeting expressed interest in having a signage requirement that buildings open to the public would need to meet to help promote a community culture of wearing a face mask or face covering. John stated that the proposed emergency ordinance will require businesses to have a sign which reads “Face Mask or Face Coverings Are Expected”. John noted that the City has been working with the University of South Dakota to promote continuity of signage across the community. John noted that a business does not have to use the templates which will be available on the City’s website but will need to provide the same message that face masks or face coverings are expected. John stated that the sign must be at least 8.5” x 11” and placed at the entrance or entrances to the business. John stated that a sample of the template is included with the packet. John stated that the proposed ordinance is an emergency ordinance to provide the City Council with the ability to more quickly implement the requirement to address the ongoing, immediate health issue. John stated that first reading of the emergency ordinance was approved at the meeting on August 11th. John noted that, as with all ordinances, a fine amount needs to be established for violation of an ordinance which is later on the agenda. Shannon Fairholm, 421 S. University, noted that we are in uncertain times but this ordinance may be overreacting by requiring local business to post a sign or be subject to a fine. Shannon noted that businesses should have the right to choose want they want and asked the Council to reconsider this emergency ordinance. Veda Church, 826 N. Crawford Road, asked what was the emergency that caused businesses to post signs. Veda felt the sign requirement could be considered a taking. Veda stated that the local businesses know what is best for their business and was against the ordinance. Matt Fairholm, 421 S. University, questioned the ability of a City Council to “cement a community wide culture” by imposing the requirement of a sign. Matt stated that the ordinance imposed the authority to mandate signage. Discussion followed on the ordinance noting the need to create an expectation of wearing masks or face covering in the public places to mitigate the spread of COVID 19. Discussion included the public health emergency and the need to protect those in public places. Discussion 8 followed including changing the wording in the last Whereas section to replace “help cement” with “promote”. 249-20 Second reading of title to Emergency Ordinance No. 1419 entitled an Emergency Ordinance Requiring Signage at the entrance to buildings open to the public that states Face Coverings Expected pursuant to City Resolution, for the City of Vermillion, South Dakota.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED, by the Governing Body of the City of Vermillion that: 1.

THE GOVERNING BODY OF THE CITY OF VERMILLION, SOUTH DAKOTA BY____________________________ Kelsey Collier-Wise, Mayor ATTEST: BY______________________________ Michael D.

Review of Emergency Resolution encouraging the use of face coverings or face masks and determine continuation of the Emergency Resolution John Prescott, City Manager, reported that at the special City Council meeting held on Tuesday, August 11, 2020, the City Council adopted an Emergency Resolution encouraging the wearing of face coverings or face masks in buildings open to the public. John noted that, as it was an emergency resolution, the City Council was able to adopt it with the resolution becoming effective upon passage. John stated that, as the City Council has done with most other emergency measures, there was discussion that the item would be on each regular City Council meeting agenda for review and continuation. John stated that the resolution has not yet been in effect for a week and that City Hall has received questions seeking clarification and understanding of what the adopted emergency resolution and Emergency Ordinance No. 1419 were and how they worked together. E. COVID-19 issues Mayor Collier-Wise stated that this has been requested to be included on the agenda to allow for report on COVID-19 issues. 8. New Business A. Emergency Resolution to establish a Special Event License fee for current license holders. (This item is related to Emergency Ordinance No. 1418) 12 James Purdy, Assistant City Manager, reported that, with the adoption of Emergency Ordinance No. 1418, it is anticipated that the current license holders will again want a fee different than the fee currently approved by the City Council. James noted that, with the discussion around the development and adoption of Emergency Ordinance No. 1415, some of the license holders involved at that time proposed that the fee for the special daily license be reduced. James reported that the current cost of a special daily license is a $15 advertising fee and a $20 fee per day of operation. James reported that the City Council set the fee at $100 for the life of Emergency Ordinance No. 1415. James noted that, as the license holders have an annual public hearing on the renewal of their licenses, they are not required to have a public hearing for the issuance of a special daily permit which negates the need for the $15 advertising fee. James recommended adoption of the emergency resolution establishing the fee at $100. Discussion followed on the fee with the consensus that the fee be zero for those licenses holders that had been issued a special event license(s) under the Emergency Ordinance No. 1415 and $100 if they had not previously been issued a special event license. 250-20 After reading the same once, Alderman Ward moved adoption of the following: EMERGENCY RESOLUTION REVISING THE FEE FOR SPECIAL DAILY ON-SALE LICENSES WHEREAS Title XI Chapter 112 Section 112.18 of the 2008 Revised Ordinances of the City of Vermillion allows the City Council to change the fee for special alcoholic beverage licenses issued in conjunction with special events; and WHEREAS, an outbreak of the COVID-19 disease has created financial challenges for many businesses in the community; and WHEREAS, a group of business owners have been working with the Vermillion Chamber and Development Company to develop outdoor dining opportunities utilizing parking spaces and public right-of-way in Downtown Vermillion to provide additional space for social distancing and an environment which has a reduced risk of spreading COVID-19; and WHEREAS, Ordinance No. 1418 was adopted as an emergency ordinance to be effective for sixty (60) days; and WHEREAS, Emergency Ordinance No. 1418 provides for a special on-sale liquor license which will need a fee established; and WHEREAS, the special recovery event will have licenses extended over many days during the sixty-day emergency ordinance. 13 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Governing Body of the City of Vermillion, South Dakota, at a regular meeting thereof in the Council Chambers of City Hall at 7:00 pm on the 17th day of August, 2020 that rate be changed for special event license be charged and established as follows: 112.18 (E) 1.

This resolution shall remain in effect for a period of sixty (60) days, at which time it shall be automatically repealed unless specifically readopted for an additional period of time by the City Council.

Resolution to establish a fine for a violation of Emergency Ordinance No. 1419 John Prescott, City Manager, reported that Section 3 of Emergency Ordinance No. 1419 provides for a fine for those found in violation of the ordinance. John stated that the fine is to be set by resolution in compliance with the general penalty provision in Section 10.99 of the Vermillion City Code. John noted that each day a violation of the ordinance occurs is treated as a separate violation. John noted that not establishing a fine by resolution requires the court or City Attorney to determine the amount of the fine levied should a violation occur. John noted that the most common fine cost for City Code violations is $56.50 and with court costs of $72.50, a violation would result in a total cost of $129.

Main Street (First Baptist Church) for the downtown Social Distance Expanded Seating Event beginning August 25 and ending October 24, 2020. James Purdy, Assistant City Manager, reported that, earlier this year, the City received a request from the Vermillion Chamber of Commerce and Development Company to close approximately 20 parking spots in the downtown business district. James noted that the closure request was in order to provide the space needed for the Social Distance Expanded Seating Event necessitated by the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting 16 economic hardship shared by many in the community. James stated that this set of street closings expires on August 24, 2020. James reported that the closures are related to the implementation of Emergency Ordinance No. 1415 to allow for special event daily licenses to existing alcoholic beverage license holders to sell in the closed parking space areas. James reported that some Main Street businesses have requested the continuation of the parking space closures for the Social Distance Expanded Seating Event as well as outside seating space for the Thursday’s on the Platz Event and the closure of a portion of the alley between the Baptist Church and the Varsity Pub. Nate Welch, Executive Director of the VCDC, reported that The Bean has requested to close five parking spaces with barricades to use the space for Social Distance Expanded Seating Events but the Dakota Brick House, Carey’s and Café Brule do not plan on using the parking spaces daily and, as such, had the barricades removed to allow more parking in the downtown area. Nate noted that Dakota Brick House, Carey’s Bar and Café Brule would like to use the former closed parking space areas when Main Street is closed for the Thursday’s on the Platz event to serve their customers in these expanded seating areas. Nate noted that fencing or barricades will be used to control that alcoholic beverage sold do not leave their respective areas. Nate noted that these businesses would like to use these parking space areas on August 20th, August 27th, September 10th, September 17th, September 24th and October 1st from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. for the expanded seating when Main Street is closed for the Thursday’s on the Platz events. Discussion followed on the closure request. John Prescott, City Manager, summarized the request in that 1) The Bean requested the continued closure of 5 parking spaces starting at the eastern most parking spot in front of R-Pizza and moving west from August 25 to October 24, 2020, 2) The Varsity requested to continue closure of an approximate 18-feet by 42-foot area at the south end of the alley between the First Baptist Church and the Varsity from August 25 to October 24, 2020, 3) Dakota Brick House to close 5 parking spaces starting at the west end of the building moving east during the street closing times for the Thursday’s on the Platz, and 4) Café Brule and Carey’s Bar for 6 parking spaces starting at the east side of the Carey’s Bar building west to Café Brule during the street closing times for the Thursday’s on the Platz. John noted that the closure times for the parking spaces in 3 & 4 will correspond with the time of the Thursday’s on the Platz request being from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on August 20, August 27th, September 10th, September 17th, September 24th and October 1st to provide increased seating areas for social distancing for the Social Distance Expanded Seating Event. Discussion followed on the request. John recommended that the City Council approve the closure of the requested alley and parking spots as noted for continuation of the downtown Social Distance Expanded Seating Event beginning August 25 and ending October 24, 2020.

Recommendation from Business Improvement District #1 Board to utilize reserve funds to make up the difference between actual receipts for the third quarter and fourth quarter 2020 vs. the 5-year average payment for the third and fourth quarter in determining the amount transferred to the VCDC. John Prescott, City Manager, reported that the Business Improvement District (BID)#1 began collecting a $2 per night fee on occupied hotel rooms on June 1, 2014. John reported that the Board identified the need to establish a reserve fund in 2017 and proposed the need to the City Council. The City Council approved a recommendation to remit 85% of receipts to the VCDC for tourism and marketing until a reserve fund of $30,000 was established. John noted that the $30,000 reserve fund level was achieved in 2018 at which time 98% of the receipts were provided to the VCDC for tourism and marketing. John stated that COVID-19 has significantly impacted hotel stays in Vermillion and around the country in 2020 as well as the dollars that the BID provided to the VCDC for marketing. John noted that at the May 18, 2020 meeting the City Council considered a recommendation from BID Board #1 which had been submitted to them by the VCDC. John noted that the request was to utilize funding from the BID #1 reserve fund to stabilize payments that are used for community marketing. John stated that the City Council agreed with the BID Board recommendation and allowed the use of BID #1 reserve funds to stabilize payments to the VCDC for the first and second quarter of 2020. John reported that BID #1 Board met on July 29, 2020 and noted that $6,069 of reserve funds were used to make up the difference between actual receipts and the 5-year average for the first and second quarter of 2020. John stated that the BID Board’s recommendation for the third and fourth quarter of 2020 was the same as the action taken for the first two quarters of 2020 which was to have the BID #1 reserve fund make up the difference between the net BID receipts available to be remitted to the VCDC and the five-year average for the third and fourth quarter. John noted that third and fourth quarter receipts are not available. The five- year average for third quarter is $15,171 and fourth quarter is $12,087. 19 John reported that the recommendation is to use the BID #1 reserves for the marketing payments to the VCDC for the third and fourth quarter 2020 to equal the five-year quarterly average payment. Discussion followed. 254-20 Alderman Willson moved approval of the recommendation by BID #1 Board to allocate a portion of the BID #1 reserve funds to the VCDC to provide the VCDC with funding equal to the five-year quarterly average for the third and fourth quarter 2020. Alderman Humphrey seconded the motion. Discussion followed.

Grant Offer for Airport Improvement Program (AIP) Project No. 3-46- 0056-014-2020 at Harold Davidson Field for the Reconstruction of 2,200- feet of Hangar Area Taxiway Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported that the existing Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for the airport calls for the reconstruction of the taxiway by the hangars. Jose stated that the grant agreement stipulates how the project will be funded as well as the criteria that must be followed during the development of the plan which is similar to the agreement entered into by the City and FAA in 2017 for the reconstruction of the apron. Jose noted that the State will administer the reimbursements and will also handle any submittals required by the Federal government. Jose stated that, due to the ‘multi-year’ aspect and the CARES Act adopted by the Federal government since the pandemic, the City will see a large savings on the project. Jose noted that prior to the pandemic the City had budgeted to be reimbursed for 95% of the construction cost or the City’s share of the project cost would be $46,917. Jose reported that in communications with the regional FAA office the FAA will provide 90% of the 2020 & 2021 funding, the CARES Act will provide 10% of the 2020 funding, the City would be responsible for 6.5% of the 2021 funding of $9,750 and the State FAA would be 3.5% while the State FAA office reported that the CARES Act will provide the 10% funding for each year. Jose noted that the budget for 2021 includes the $9,750 if it is needed. Jose recommended authorizing the Mayor to sign the grant offer for the taxiway as well as all future documents related to the project. Discussion followed. 255-20 Alderman Ward moved approval of authorizing the Mayor to sign the Grant Offer for Airport Improvement Program (AIP) Project No. 3-46-0056-014- 2020 at Harold Davidson Field for the Reconstruction of 2,200-feet of Hangar Area Taxiway as well as all future documents related to this project.

Mike reported that the State statute provides for the special assessment of these costs and requires that the City Council set a public hearing date, notify the property owners by sending notice and publishing the notice of hearing.
