B. Agreement with Burns & McDonnell for Design and Bid Administration
Services for the Design of Leachate Pond No. 2 at the Vermillion Landfill
Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported on an agreement with Burns &
McDonnell for Design and Bid Administration Services for the Design of
Leachate Pond No. 2 at the Vermillion Landfill. Jose noted that, with
the increased use of the Landfill and with the completion of cell 6, the
Landfill is now in need of another leachate pond. Jose stated that a
6
leachate pond collects the effluent created when water runs through the
landfill cells and mixes with the decomposing waste. Jose noted that the
leachate cannot be allowed to flow outside of the Landfill, so it is
collected in ponds and then irrigated on to the Landfill cells.
Eventually the liquid in the leachate evaporates leaving the solids at
the bottom of the ponds or on top of the waste in the Landfill.
Jose noted that the proposed project is for the design of the new leachate
pond and the agreement will allow Burns & McDonnell to prepare the
application for funding assistance from the State to help pay for the
new leachate pond.
Jose noted that there are two applications that need to be made. One
application is for the State Water Plan to be eligible for a combination
of state grants and loans. The second application would be to the Solid
Waste Management Program for the actual grant and loan packages.
279-22
Council Member Jennewein moved approval of the Agreement with Burns &
McDonnell for Design and Bid Administration Services for the Design of
Leachate Pond No. 2 at the Vermillion Landfill. Council Member Holland
seconded the motion. Motion carried 9 to 0. Mayor Cole declared the
motion adopted.
9. Bid Openings
10. City Manager's Report
A. Jose reported that the City’s chip seal contractor is scheduled to
start the project this Thursday, August 18th and completing it the
following day. Jose stated that this work is weather dependent, and the
contractor will be informing us if work will be occurring as previously
planned. Jose noted considering that the 18th is the first day of school
for the Vermillion School district, and that the 19th is move-in day for
USD, the list of streets being chip sealed has been modified to remove,
as much as possible, streets that may impact these important events. The
streets being chip sealed are: W. Main Street between Stanford and High
Streets; Carr Street between W. Main and W. Clark Streets; W. National
Street between Franklin and Prospect Streets; Center Street bewtween
National and Dartmouth Streets; Elm Street between E. National and E.
Dartmouth Streets; Forest Avenue; South Yale Street; Lewis Street between
Forest Avenue and S. University Street; Lewis Street between S. Norbeck
Street and S. Mickelson Avenue; Valley View Drive between Canby Street
and Valley View Circle; Crestview Drive between Catalina Avenue and S.
Norbeck Street; High Street between W. Main and W. Cedar Street; East
Duke Street between N. Plum and Jefferson Street.
7
Jose reported that City staff has also been in contact with the Slurry
Seal contractor to see when the project will commence. Jose noted that
the contractor has experienced delays with the delivery of new equipment.
Due to the delays, they purchased used equipment, which they have also
experienced delays acquiring spare parts for repairs. Jose noted that at
this point the contractor is unsure if they will be able to complete the
work for the City by the end of September 2022. Jose stated that City
Staff is working with the contractor on a plan to lock in the 2022 pricing
but complete the work in 2023 if the project cannot be completed by the
end of September 2022. This would ensure that the price does not increase,
and that the work is completed next year. Jose noted that the City would
temporarily stripe parts of downtown (e.g. crossings, some of the parking
striping, handicap parking areas, and block-out areas) until they are
re-striped through the Slurry Seal project in 2023.
B. John reported that a one-year term on the Housing Authority Board
remains open due to a resignation. This seat is reserved for a program
participant. Please contact City Hall if you are interested in filling
this position.
C. John stated that the City has received notice of two properties being
considered by the State Historical Society Board of Trustees for
nomination to the National Register of Historic Places. One nomination
is for the Basil H. and Frances Jacobson House at 1101 James Street. The
second nomination is for the Jolley Historic District. The area is
immediately east of the Forest Avenue Historic District, south of E. Main
Street, north of the bluff and bordered on the east by portions of the
alley between Plum and Pine Street, Pine Street, and Linden Street.
Public comments will be accepted through August 26, 2022. The Board will
act on the nominations at their September 9, 2022 meeting in Pierre.
D. John noted that the City’s Planning and Zoning Commission will have
a meeting next Monday, August 22nd at 5:30 p.m. The agenda at this point
includes a zoning amendment as it relates to main floor residential units
in the Central Business District.
E. John stated that the City’s Planning and Zoning Commission and County
Planning Commission will have a joint meeting on Monday, August 29th to
discuss possible zoning amendments to the Light Industrial zoning in the
Joint Jurisdiction Zoning Area.
F. John reported that two Commissions have openings. There is an opening
for the final year of a term and an opening for a 2-year term on the
Tree Board. Three terms are expiring on the City’s Historic Preservation
Commission. Terms are for three years. Expression of Interest forms for
the Tree Board and Historic Preservation Commission should be submitted

D. Request for a variance to reduce the required off-street parking at
701 West Dartmouth Street from 246-parking spots to 142-parking spots
for the construction and operation of a new elementary school
Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported that the City received a petition
for variance from Mr. Sean Ervin on behalf of the Vermillion School
District requesting that the off-street parking be reduced from 246
parking spots to 142 parking spots.
Jose noted that the School District is in the process of constructing a
new elementary school on the north side of West Dartmouth Street just
west of the exiting Middle School. Jose stated that one of the
requirements set by ordinance is off-street parking and for an elementary
school the Zoning Ordinance requires two spaces for each classroom or
office room, plus one for each 150-SF of seating area in any auditorium,
gymnasium, or cafeteria that is intended to be used as an auditorium.
Jose stated that following the ordinance the School District would need
to provide 246-parking spots.
Jose noted that the Zoning Ordinance allows the City Council, acting as
the Board of Adjustment, to hear and decide on variances. The Ordinance
requires that the Board consider several items before deciding. All of
these are listed on the memo along with Staff’s comments.
Jose stated that the construction of the elementary school will be
changing the area considerably. The change will only be made more drastic
if the off-street parking requirements are followed to the letter. Jose
noted that fully enforcing the ordinance will create a very large parking
lot that will likely be 40% empty most of the time. Jose stated that the
School District’s proposal of only providing 142 parking spots will
provide sufficient off-street parking most of the time for the school
and for gyms. Jose noted that in those rare cases where an overlap occurs
the public may choose to park in the Elementary School’s parking lot,
the Middle School’s parking lot, on West Dartmouth Street or on Carr
Street. Discussion followed on parking requirements.
257-22
Council Member Holland moved approval of the Request for a variance to
reduce the required off-street parking at 701 West Dartmouth Street from
5
246-parking spots to 142-parking spots for the construction and operation
of a new elementary school. Council Member Price seconded the motion.
Motion carried 8 to 0. Mayor Cole declared the motion adopted.
E. First reading of Ordinance 1468 to amend Title XV, Land Usage; Chapter
155, Zoning Regulations; Section 155.026 rezoning Lot 3A, Block 18,
Original Town; and, Lots 7, 8, and E ½ of Lot 9, Block 8, Van Meters
Addition; City of Vermillion, Clay County, South Dakota from the R-2
Residential District to the LI-Light Industrial District
Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported that the City received a petition
to rezone this area from Mr. Tim Schwasinger on July 8th. Jose noted
that Mr. Schwasinger is the owner of the property being considered
tonight. He is requesting that the property be rezoned from R-2
Residential District to the LI-Light Industrial District.
Jose stated that the City’s Planning and Zoning Commission considered
this item at their July 25th meeting. After reviewing the item, they
unanimously recommended that the Council approve the rezone of the
property.
Tim Schwasinger discussed the reasoning for the rezone to allow for a
sale of the property to someone wanting to build a shed.
Discussion followed on the rezone.
258-22
Mayor Cole read the title to the above-mentioned Ordinance and Council
Member Holland moved adoption of the following Resolution:
BE IT RESOLVED that the minutes of this meeting shall show that the title
to proposed Ordinance No. 1468 entitled An Ordinance amending Title XV,
Land Usage; Chapter 155, Zoning Regulations; Section 155.026 rezoning
Lot 3A, Block 18, Original Town; and, Lots 7, 8, and E ½ of Lot 9, Block
8, Van Meters Addition; City of Vermillion, Clay County, South Dakota
from the R-2 Residential District to the LI-Light Industrial District of
the City of Vermillion, South Dakota has been read and the Ordinance has
been considered for the first time in its present form and content at
this meeting being a regularly called meeting of the Governing Body of
the City on this 1st day of August, 2022 at the Council Chambers in City
Hall in the manner prescribed by SDCL 9-19-7 as amended.

Jack Baustian, Administrative Intern, reported that the Dakota Days

Street west to the CorTrust alleyway and Market Street as it abuts
Ratingen Platz on Thursday October 20, 2022 from 5:30 p.m. to Midnight

closure application and diagram have been provided. Jack noted that
security will be provided by the Dakota Days Committee and a no parking
posting will occur one hour before the event begins. Jack noted that the
Police, Fire-EMS, Street Department and Vermillion Light & Power
Department will also be notified of the event.
259-22
Council Member Murra moved approval of the request to close W. Main
Street from Prospect Street west to the CorTrust alleyway and Market
Street as it abuts Ratingen Platz on Thursday, October 20, 2022 from 5:30
p.m. to 12:00 a.m. for the Dakota Days Street Dance. Council Member
Hellwege seconded the motion. Motion carried 8 to 0. Mayor Cole declared
the motion adopted.
B. Amendment No. 2 to Agreement with Helms and Associates’ Agreement for
Professional Services for the Hangar Taxi Lane Reconstruction Project at
Harold Davidson Field
Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported that in 2021 the City completed
the reconstruction of the hangar taxi lanes at the airport. Jose noted
that, besides a contract with the contractor doing the work, the City
also had a contract with Helms and Associates (Helms) for the bidding,
resident engineer, and for the construction administration.
Jose noted that the amendment being considered tonight balances out the
project with regards to the contract with Helms. Jose stated that the
original contract included work for the bidding, resident engineer, and
construction administration. Jose stated that the bidding item was
completed in 2021 and the other two items are paid for as required while
construction is occurring. Jose stated that the cost for the construction
administration is paid to Helms for any required project oversight, while
7
the resident engineer’s cost is for a different firm that is hired to
perform inspections during construction.
Jose noted that, in this instance, the resident engineer was $13,812.92
more than expected while the cost of the construction administration was
$11,965.22 less than expected. Jose stated that this means that the
amendment being considered tonight is for an increase of $1,856.70.
Jose stated that the City would be responsible for paying the $1,856.70,
however, the City would be refunded for 95% of that cost. In essence,
the City only pays 5%, or close to $92.84.
260-22
Council Member Hellwege moved approval of Amendment No. 2 to Agreement
with Helms and Associates’ Agreement for Professional Services for the
Hangar Taxi Lane Reconstruction Project at Harold Davidson Field.
Council Member Jennewein seconded the motion. Motion carried 8 to 0.
Mayor Cole declared the motion adopted.
C. Appointment of City Attorney
Mayor Cole noted that there was an interview panel that interviewed each
applicant for City Attorney and during the noon meeting the Council went
into executive session to discuss the applicants.
Mayor Cole recommended the appointment of Crary Huff as City Attorney.
Council Member Hellwege stated that Brent Matter has been an asset to
the community and thanked him for his work.
261-22
Council Member Holland moved approval of Crary Huff as City Attorney.
Council Member Murra seconded the motion. Motion carried 7 to 1. Mayor
Cole declared the motion adopted.
D. Water and Wastewater Treatment Preliminary Engineering Report
Amendment
Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported that with the enactment of the
American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) the City received over $1.8-million. Jose
noted that, on April 2021, the Council approved an agreement with Banner
Associates (Banner) to complete a Preliminary Engineering Report (PER)
for the Wastewater Department. The agreement focused on evaluating the
pretreatment, screw pumps and the SCADA system at the Wastewater
Facility.
8
Jose noted that, on May 23, 2022, Staff had a kick-off meeting with
Banner for this project. This kick-off meeting included a walk-through.
As a result of the meeting, additional areas in need of improvement were
identified.
Jose stated that the amendment considers possible improvements at the
plant from pretreatment to the outfall rather than just certain projects
(i.e. pretreatment, screw pumps, and SCADA system). Jose noted that the
amendment would look at the plant’s capacity and equipment replacement
for the next 20-years. Jose stated that this is like the evaluation that
was completed in 2004. Additionally, the amendment includes a City
Council presentation of the study’s findings. Jose noted that the
amendment would change the schedule. Although some of the tasks would be
delayed, the City would still be able to request placement on the State
Water Plan by October 1, 2022. Placement on the Water Plan provides the
ability to make funding requests as soon as January 1, 2023.
Jose noted that the original agreement with Banner was split into two
sections: $37,500 for the Water Department’s portion, and $39,950 for
the Wastewater portion. Jose stated that the amendment would increase
this amount by $67,500 for the Wastewater portion giving us a new total
of $107,450. This project would be funded through the City’s ARPA funds.
262-22
Council Member Holland moved approval of the Water and Wastewater
Treatment Preliminary Engineering Report Amendment. Council Member
Hellwege seconded the motion. Motion carried 8 to 0. Mayor Cole declared
the motion adopted.
E. Proposed 2023 Budget

prepares a proposed budget for the next fiscal year. John noted that the
proposed budget document for 2023 is presented to the City Council
tonight to provide the Council time to review the document prior to the
budget meetings. John noted that the actual discussion and presentation
of the respective departmental budgets will take place on Wednesday,
August 10 and Thursday, August 11, 2022 in the Jack Powell Conference
Room at City Hall starting at 5:30 p.m. each night.
F. Request to close Clark Street east from N. Dakota Street to N. Harvard

Stone Conley, Assistant to the City Manager, reported that Chief Matt
Callahan of the Vermillion Fire-EMS Department has submitted a street
closure request to temporarily close E. Clark Street east from N. Dakota
9
Street to N. Harvard Street for specialized Vermillion Fire EMS training
on Saturday, August 6, 2022, from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Stone noted that the closure is being requested to provide members of
the Vermillion Fire EMS Department with safe access throughout their
training area along E. Clark Street. Stone stated that training will be
taking place at Julian Hall on the University of South Dakota’s campus.
Alongside this, the closure will allow for multiple fire engines with
large ladders to be utilized within the area during the hours of training.
Stone noted that a map and the street closure request from Fire EMS has
been attached to the Council packet. Chief Callahan will be available to
answer any questions regarding the closure of E. Clark Street for
training on August 6, 2022. Stone stated that Street, Fire EMS, and
Police have all been notified of this closure and had no issues.
263-22
Council Member Holland moved approval of the Request to close Clark
Street east from N. Dakota Street to N. Harvard Street for Vermillion
Fire EMS Training on Saturday, August 6, 2022 from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00
p.m. Council Member Humphrey seconded the motion. Motion carried 8 to 0.
Mayor Cole declared the motion adopted.
9. Bid Openings
A. Quote for Removal and Reconstruction of Lions Park Playground
Equipment
Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported on a quote for Removal and
Reconstruction of Lions Park Playground Equipment. Jose stated that Lions
Park is in the southeast corner of the intersection of West Cherry and
Princeton Streets. This park offers tent and RV camping, restroom/shower
facilities, and a playground. The park has been scheduled to be renovated
since 2020.
Jose noted that to improve the drainage in the park, the existing
playground equipment will have to be removed so that the area can be
regraded. Jose noted that after the area is regraded the playground
equipment would be reinstalled in the existing site.
Jose stated that the City asked a couple of playground equipment
distributors for quotes on the removal and reinstallation on the
equipment. Jose noted that one of the distributors could not work on the
equipment since they are not the suppliers and are not familiar with the
installation of the equipment. The other distributor could not remove
the equipment until next year. However, the City was able to contact a
contractor that works with one of the distributors that sells this brand
of equipment for a quote.
10
Jose noted that the quote supplied removes the equipment this year and
reinstalls it next year before August 1st. Jose stated that this
timeframe would give the City’s other contractor time to regrade the area
and construct all of the new camping sites. The quote received from
DakotaScapes, LLC is for $23,445. This is below the bidding requirements
set by the State of $50,000.
264-22
Council Member Hellwege moved approval of the quote for Removal and
Reconstruction of Lions Park Playground Equipment. Council Member Murra
seconded the motion. Motion carried 8 to 0. Mayor Cole declared the
motion adopted.

Council Agenda Memo
From: Jose Dominguez, City Engineer
Meeting: August 15, 2022
Subject: Second Reading of Ordinance 1468 to amend Title XV, Land Usage;
Chapter 155 Zoning Regulations; Section 155.026 rezoning Lot 3A, Block
18, Original Town; and, Lots 7, 8, and E ½ of Lot 9, Block 8, Van Meters
Addition; City of Vermillion, Clay County, South Dakota from the R-2
Residential District to the LI-Light Industrial District
Presenter: Jose Dominguez
Background: The City received a petition on July 8th to rezone this area from Mr. Tim
Schwasinger, owner of the property which is being considered. Mr. Schwasinger is
requesting that his property, which is vacant, be rezoned from the R-2 Residential district
to the LI-Light Industrial district. The area being considered is bordered to the east and
north by the LI-Light Industrial district, and to the west and south by the R-2 Residential
district. The land is located just east of 414 W. 8th Street.
Mr. Schwasinger obtained the required signatures from property owners within 250 feet
from the property being considered for rezoning. The signatures were required to bring
the rezoning request forward for consideration.
The City’s Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the application at their July 25th
meeting. After their review, the commission voted 8-0 and recommended unanimously
that the City Council approve the ordinance to rezone the property.
First reading of this ordinance was on August 1st. At the meeting, the City Council
approved unanimously to approve the ordinance. There have been no changes to the
ordinance since the first reading.
Discussion: This area was recently rezoned into the LI-Light Industrial district. Prior to
this, the area was zoned in the GI-General Industrial district. This change provided an
avenue for possible development in the area and for property owners to voice concerns
with uses that may be considered negative by the residential property owners.
7. Old Business; item a
Additionally, the change to the LI district reduced the required rear-yard setback from 25
feet to 0 feet when abutting railroad property.
The rezoning request is for the future construction of a “shop.” Based on conversations
with the owner and the future owner, the proposed use would fit under the “Contractor’s
shop/storage yard.” This use is a permitted use in the new LI-Light Industrial district.
Financial Consideration: The only cost incurred by the City has been that of publishing
the notice in the Plain Talk.
Conclusion/Recommendations: Administration recommends approval of the second
reading of Ordinance 1468. Since this is the second reading of the ordinance, a roll call
vote is required.

aware of the street closing. The request has been reviewed by the Street, Fire-EMS, and
Police Departments. These City Departments have no concerns with the street closure
request. The City will assist with putting up signs and cones forecasting the 4:30 pm
closure and will help to clear remaining vehicles until 5:00 pm.
Financial Consideration: None.
Conclusion/Recommendations: Administration recommends approval of the W. Main

Council Agenda Memo
From: Jose Dominguez, City Engineer
Meeting: August 15, 2022
Subject: Agreement with Burns & McDonnell for Design and Bid Administration
Services for the Design of Leachate Pond No. 2 at the Vermillion Landfill
Presenter: Jose Dominguez
Background: With the increased use of the landfill and with the completion of cell 6, the
landfill is now in need of another leachate pond. A leachate pond collects the effluent
created when water runs through the landfill cells and mixes with the decomposing waste.
The leachate cannot be allowed to flow outside of the landfill, so it is collected in ponds
and then irrigated on to the landfill cells. Eventually the liquid in the leachate evaporates
leaving the solids at the bottom of the ponds or on top of the waste in the landfill.
Discussion: The proposed project is for the design of the new leachate pond. Additionally,
the agreement will allow Burns & McDonnell to prepare the application for funding
assistance from the State to help pay for the new leachate pond.
There are two applications that need to be made. One application is for the State Water
Plan to be eligible for a combination of state grants and loans. This would be done no later
than October 1, 2022. The second application would be to the Solid Waste Management
Program for the actual grant and loan packages. This second application would be done
no later than January 1, 2023.
Financial Consideration: The professional services contract for this portion of the project
is $96,500. The Joint Powers landfill fund has budgeted for these services.
Conclusion/Recommendations: Administration recommends approval of the professional
services contract with Burns & McDonnell Engineering Company, Inc for the design of
leachate pond no. 2 in the amount not to exceed $96,500.
