Main Street). Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported on the second reading of Ordinance 1529 to Amend Title XV land usage. Jose stated that Mr. William Willroth IV, owner of the land, has requested that the City rezone Lot 3, Block 2, Arobba Addition, from the NRC Natural Resource Conservation District to the R-2 Residential District. Jose noted the lot is roughly 3.00 acres in size and is bounded to the north by a farm field in the Joint Jurisdictional Zoning Area’s (JJZA) A-1 Agricultural Zoning District, to the east by a single-family home also zoned in the JJZA’s A-1 Agricultural District, and to the west is a single-family home zoned within the City’s R-2 Residential District. East Main Street borders the 6 lot along the south. Jose noted this property was annexed into the City in March 2011. Jose stated the City provided Mr. Willroth with information to contact the owners of five properties. These five properties covered 210,480 square feet. For the meeting to occur, Mr. Willroth had to collect signatures from the owners of at least 94,716 square feet, or 45% of the aggregate area. Mr. Willroth collected signatures from two property owners who owned 172,680 square feet. Jose noted the surrounding area to the one being considered is R-2 Residential and NRC to the west. The areas to the north, east, and south of the lot are zoned A-1 Agricultural in the Joint Jurisdictional Zoning Area. Zoning this lot into the R-2 Residential District will fit with the surrounding area within City limits. Additionally, everything within City limits on the north side of East Main Street and east of Crawford Road is already within the R-2 Residential District. Jose stated this item was considered by the City’s Planning and Zoning Commission at their April 14th meeting. At that meeting the Commission voted 7-0 to recommend the City Council adopt the rezone as proposed. There was one member of the public present at the meeting, this being the owner’s representative.

Resolution to Adopt a Project Plan for Tax Increment Financing District #11 (The Boundaries of TIF #11 are Block 3, Madison Park Addition). 8 John Prescott, City Manager, reported that on April 21, 2025, the City Council, after reviewing a recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Commission, adopted a Resolution establishing the boundaries for Tax Increment Financing District #11 (TIF 11). John stated TIF 11 was established to assist in the cost of developing over 200 affordable multi-family housing units on the south side of Roosevelt Street on Block 3 of Madison Park Addition. John stated the next step for the City Council in setting up a TIF district is the review and consideration of approval of a Project Plan. The Planning and Zoning Commission considered the Project Plan for TIF #11 at their meeting on April 28, 2025. The Commission recommended approval of the TIF Project Plan with a vote of 7-0. John reported the Project Plan identifies the applicant’s request for a developer’s TIF. As per the Project Plan and the Director of Equalization, the base assessed value of the property is $23,953. John noted a developer's TIF relies on property tax revenue generated above the base value being granted back to the developer for eligible expenses. Examples of this may include site preparation, street, curb and gutter, and drainage, among other things that benefit the public. The developer anticipates there to be eligible TIF expenses in both phases of this project. The estimated eligible TIF costs associated with this Project Plan are approximately $6,000,000. Per the Project Plan, there are estimated non-eligible TIF costs for the project of approximately $17,000,000. John noted the Project Plan outlines the developer’s intent to split this development into two phases. The first phase includes the east half of the final structure containing 118 units, with a mix of studio, one- bedroom, and two-bedroom units. The second phase of the project would include an additional 118 units and have a similar mix of units. John stated the Project Plan further outlines this will be an Affordable Housing Project, as defined by the South Dakota Housing Development Authority (SDHDA), limiting the rental rates to an equivalency of the first-time homebuyers' purchase price at the time of Project Plan creation. 129-25 After reading the same once, Council Member Holland moved adoption of the following: RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE PROJECT PLAN FOR TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT NUMBER ELEVEN WHEREAS, the Planning and Zoning Commission of City of Vermillion, South Dakota, received an application to create a Tax Increment 9 Financing District and thereafter prepared a Notice of Hearing held on April 14, 2025, advising interested parties that they were being given a reasonable opportunity to express their views on the proposed creation of a Tax Increment Financing District on real property consisting of the following parcel: District Legal Description: BLOCK 3 OF MADISON PARK ADDITION TO THE CITY OF VERMILLION, CLAY COUNTY, SOUTH DAKOTA CONTAINING 367,243 S.F. ± OR 8.43 ACRES MORE OR LESS All located in the City of Vermillion, Clay County, South Dakota including within and adjacent rights-of-way.

Cole, Mayor ATTEST: BY___________________________________ Katie E Redden, Finance Officer The motion was seconded by Council Member Cheeseman. Discussion followed and the question of the adoption of the Resolution was presented for a vote of the Governing Body. 9 members voted in favor of and 0 members voted in opposition to the resolution. Mayor Cole declared that the resolution was adopted. 11 B. Resolution Supporting the Stencil Group Loan Application for SDHDA Housing Infrastructure Financing Program Funding. John Prescott, City Manager, reported on a resolution supporting Stencil Group’s Loan Application. John stated the TIF Project Plan, which is part of the previous agenda item, details that there are over $2.4 million of probable costs related to the site preparation, erosion control, sanitary sewer, water main, storm sewer, and surfacing related to the project. John stated the TIF Project Plan also details just over $950,000 of costs related to the construction of Roosevelt Street and the related sanitary sewer and water main service needed to complete this section of infrastructure. The TIF Project Plan also indicates that there are $17 million of non-project costs with respect to eligibility for TIF funding that are part of the development of the property. John stated that several years ago, the South Dakota Legislature set aside $100 million of funding for infrastructure related to housing development. The loan is limited to 1/3 of eligible project costs. The loan is at 2% interest, uses a 20-year amortization schedule, and has a balloon payment at 10 years. The property tax receipts from the TIF district serve as a source of collateral for the loan. John noted the loan is not an obligation of the City of Vermillion. All of the liability for the loan from SDHDA is on the developer. The City’s role and the reason for the resolution is to acknowledge the loan application is being made as the water and sanitary sewer facilities will be connected to the City’s infrastructure. The resolution may be the only document related to this loan that the City ever sees. Consultant Toby Morris has successfully closed on one of these loans in the past. 130-25 After reading the same once, Council Member Murra moved adoption of the following: Resolution in Support of an Application for Financial Assistance to the South Dakota Housing and Development Authority by Stencil Group II, LLC, and / or its Affiliates, Agents, or Assigns, for the Benefit of Multifamily Development WHEREAS, the City of Vermillion and Stencil Group II, LLC have determined it is necessary to proceed with improvements to the City's infrastructure, thus enabling additional multifamily units to be constructed in the city limits of Vermillion; and WHEREAS, the City and Developer have determined financial assistance will be necessary to undertake the Project and an application for financial assistance to the South Dakota Housing and Development Authority shall 12 be prepared by Stencil Group II, LLC (Developer) for the proposed development; and WHEREAS, the City will work with the Developer's engineer to ensure the preliminary project infrastructure plans meet the City's requirements for adequate drinking water, water treatment capacity and distribution, storm sewer, and all other necessary improvements as needed; and WHEREAS, the City has adequate treatment facilities and water supply to accommodate the proposed development; and WHEREAS, the City is committed to the ownership and long-term maintenance of said infrastructure upon acceptance and the conditions set forth in the certificate of completion that the said infrastructure and system shall meet the specifications, materials, and equipment set forth as shown on the approved plans in said agreement; and WHEREAS, the 2022 Vermillion Housing Study identified the need for additional multifamily housing in the moderate to market price range; and WHEREAS, the City acknowledges that there is a significant housing shortage in the City of Vermillion and this proposed development will help but not resolve the housing shortage. Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved, by the Governing Body of the City of Vermillion as follows: 1. The City hereby supports the submission of an Application for Financial Assistance by Stencil Group II, LLC, to the South Dakota Housing and Development Authority. 2.

Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported on a development agreement with Stencil Group. Jose stated NJS Development, LLC, (Stencil) purchased several acres between North Crawford Road and North Norbeck Street along the extension of Roosevelt Street. The land purchased was split into two large parcels and will be separated by the extension of Roosevelt Street. Stencil is currently in the process of finalizing the financing and plans for the construction of infrastructure and an apartment building on the south side of future Roosevelt Street. Jose stated that prior to any construction starting on the apartment building, Stencil must either complete all the infrastructure fronting the lot or enter into a developer’s agreement with the City guaranteeing that the infrastructure will be built. Jose noted the City ordinance requires that the property owner construct sidewalks, grading, curb and gutter, street surfacing, streetlights, water and sewer improvements on all streets abutting a property to be developed. Jose stated the lot in question is on the south side of the extension of Roosevelt Street and is located between North Norbeck Street and North Crawford Road. This agreement addresses the improvements for the extension of Roosevelt Street. • Complete the construction of Roosevelt Street, water mains and sanitary sewer mains when the City Council requests completion, or when a future development that would utilize the street needs the improvement. • Will not remonstrate against any assessments required for construction of any of the above-mentioned improvements. Jose reported this agreement has been reviewed by the City Attorney. NJS has accepted the terms of the agreement and has provided a signed copy. 131-25 Council Member Cheeseman moved approval of the TIF #11 Developer Agreements with Stencil Group, Owner of Block 3, Madison Park Addition, City of Vermillion, Clay County, South Dakota. Council Member Hellwege seconded the motion. Motion carried 9 to 0. Mayor Cole declared the motion adopted. D. TIF #11 Agreement to Complete Public Project by a Private Company. 14 Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported on a public project completed by a private company. Jose stated NJS Development, LLC (Stencil) is finalizing the financing for the construction of an apartment building on the south side of future Roosevelt Street between North Crawford Road and North Norbeck Street. As part of this project Stencil asked the City to allow them to construct the public street and all associated public utilities that would be needed by the development. Jose stated when a public infrastructure project is requested by the public or developer, the City provides three options: (1) project is completed by the City and assessed to the developer (construction cost and an 8% fiscal fee); or (2) the project is completed by the City with the plans being done by a consultant (construction cost and cost of consultant); or (3) the project is completed entirely by the developer. The third option was first used in 2011 with the construction of East Clark Street (from roughly Anderson Street east to North Norbeck Street). Jose reported that Stencil would like to take advantage of the opportunity to complete the street project as part of their building construction. Jose noted this gives them more flexibility with scheduling and with some of the expenses associated with public infrastructure construction. The agreement sets the following: • Stencil will be the main point of contact between the City and any contractors, or other property owners. • The City will pay Stencil for all oversized items (e.g. extra width of concrete road, extra pavement thickness, subgrade stabilization, additional gravel, additional excavation, soil cement stabilization, etc.). • Payments for oversized items, or City portions, will be based on the City’s measurements. • Payments will be made to Stencil, upon submission of all required documentation. • Stencil is responsible for paying contractors responsible for construction of the project. • The City will require a copy of the contract between Stencil and any contractors (the contract shall include cost based on bid items and a project completion date). • Stencil will guarantee the project for one year commencing on the day final payment is made. • The City will require a copy of all the payments from Stencil to any contractor. • The City will require lien waivers from all suppliers prior to final payment being issued by the City. • The City will require insurance meeting City minimums. 15 • The City will require a payment/performance bond in the amount of the engineer’s estimate, or the contractor’s cost, whichever is greater. 132-25 Council Member Murra moved approval of the TIF #11 Agreement to Complete Public Project by a Private Company and allow the Mayor to sign. Council Member Price seconded the motion. Motion carried 9 to 0. Mayor Cole declared the motion adopted. E. Agreement with the University of South Dakota to provide Law Enforcement Powers to the University Police Department through the Vermillion Police Department. Crystal Brady, Police Chief, reported on the agreement with USD’s Law enforcement. Crystal stated a university police department in South Dakota needs to obtain their law enforcement authority. Crystal stated from an agency that has jurisdiction where the university is located. Since the early 1990’s, the University Police Department (UPD) at the University of South Dakota (USD) has received their law enforcement authority through the Vermillion Police Department. The current agreement for the Vermillion Police Department law enforcement authority to be extended to the University Police Department was approved in June 2022 and is set to expire on June 30, 2025. Crystal stated the Vermillion Police Department and Chief Jackson of the University of South Dakota Police Department have cultivated a strong, cooperative relationship centered on the shared goal of keeping both the City of Vermillion and the USD campus community safe. Recognizing that public safety is best achieved through collaboration, the two chiefs and their departments have maintained a productive partnership guided by open communication and mutual support. The expiring agreement between their agencies has proven successful, and both leaders have recently worked together to update and refine the agreement - removing outdated or unnecessary language while reinforcing law enforcement best practices and consistent terminology. Crystal stated the proposed agreement is very similar to the expiring agreement with a couple of changes. The changes include: • References to USD paying the Vermillion Police Department have been removed from the agreement. While this language remained in the expiring agreement, there was a stipulation that this clause was not enforced. In acknowledgement of the extensive training opportunities, sharing of department instructors, and additional support, this language has been removed from the agreement. 16 • References to a “field officer training program” have been updated to the current national training standard “police officer training program,” which is followed by both agencies. • UPD will continue to collaborate with the Vermillion Police Department on a training plan, associated costs and equipment, and utilize available instructors to complete mandatory training requirements. • Section 9. B has been amended to allow the Chiefs to determine which types of instructors are needed between the departments to ensure both agencies maintain instructors in needed topics and disciplines. • The agreement is being changed from three years to five years in duration. 133-25 Council Member Holland moved approval of the Agreement with the University of South Dakota to provide Law Enforcement Powers to the University Police Department through the Vermillion Police Department. Council Member Cheeseman seconded the motion. Motion carried 9 to 0. Mayor Cole declared the motion adopted. F. Human Relations Commission Appointments.

Council Member Thaler seconded the motion. Motion carried 9 to 0. Mayor Cole declared the motion adopted. G. Library Board of Trustee Appointments. Mayor Cole recommended Wayne Berninger and Jacqueline Wilber to the Library Board of Trustee. 135-25 Council Member Murra moved the approval of Wayne Berninger and Jacqueline Wilber to the Library Board of Trustee. Council Member Price seconded the motion. Motion carried 9 to 0. Mayor Cole declared the motion adopted. H. Agreement with Midwest MHP, LLC to resell water and sewer. Shane Griese, Utilities Manager, reported that in February of 2025 City Staff was informed that the new owners of Midwest MHP were reselling 17 utility services utilizing a ratio-based system. Shane noted this system was outside of the scope of the resale authorization that was approved in 2011. Staff informed the park management of this violation and in April of 2025 City Staff received a request for authorization to resell water and sewer services at Midwest MHP (411 Stanford) utilizing an approved method. Shane noted staff have worked with park management to ensure the prices they are planning to charge residents are in line with current City rates and that the service fee is in line with prior resale agreements. Shane stated the proposed fees are: Monthly Water Rates: Flat fee of $7.00, plus water usage at the current City rate. Currently the rate is $2.49/100 cubic feet. Monthly Sewer Rates: Sewer fee: $51.12 per lot until April of 2026 when actual sewer rates for each lot can be calculated. To do so, park management will need to average out the water usage for each lot for the months of January, February, and March of 2026 and multiply that by the current sewer rate at that time. Shane stated the proposed rates have been reviewed and are equal to the current City rate for water. Sewer is based on the mobile home park average as the individual water usages for January, February, and March 2025 were not available this year but will be recalculated for April of 2026 with the individual usages. Shane noted past City Councils have allowed similar agreements with Westgate MHP (1312 Westgate) in 2024, Vermillion MHP (911 E. Duke) in 2021, SDVE Suburban Mobile Home Park (833 E. Duke) in 2017, Dave Hertz in 2011 to resell water and sewer to tenants in the Midwest Mobile Village (411 Stanford St.), and with Connie Waddell in 2012 to resell water and sewer to tenants in Plum Vista Mobile Home Park (447 N. Plum). 136-25 After reading the same once, Council Member Thaler moved adoption of the following: RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE RESALE OF UTILITY SERVICES WHEREAS, City ordinance provides that utility customers shall not resell or share with others any utility services furnished by the City unless authorized by the City Council; and WHEREAS, Midwest MHP LLC, owner of Midwest Mobile Home Park located at 411 Stanford St., to fairly distribute the utility costs from the City 18 to the Mobile Home Tenants has requested the ability to resell water and wastewater services to the individual tenants; and WHEREAS, Midwest MHP requests the ability to bill the individual tenants for water and wastewater service; and WHEREAS, Midwest MHP understands that, as the owner, they are responsible for furnishing and maintaining meters along with the resale utility billing; and WHEREAS, Midwest MHP, as the owner, will file for review with the City of Vermillion any changes in the utility rates charged to tenants. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Governing Body of the City of Vermillion, South Dakota, that Midwest MHP LLC, owner of Midwest Mobile Home Park, is authorized to resell water and wastewater services to individual tenants at 411 Stanford at a rate that is not more than the current City utility fees excluding the monthly service fee of $7.00. Dated at Vermillion, South Dakota this 5th day of May, 2025. THE GOVERNING BODY OF THE CITY OF VERMILLION, SOUTH DAKOTA BY____________________________ Jonathan D. Cole, Mayor ATTEST: BY___________________________________ Katie E Redden, Finance Officer The motion was seconded by Council Member Price. Discussion followed and the question of the adoption of the resolution was presented for a vote of the Governing Body. 9 members voted in favor of and 0 members voted in opposition to the resolution. Mayor Cole declared that the resolution was adopted. I. First Reading of Ordinance 1530 Amending Title V, Public Works; Chapter 50, General Provisions; Section 50.03, Resale of Utility Services to Add Language Prohibiting the Resale of Utility Services. Shane Griese, Utilities Manager, reported that City Code Section 51.21 Resale of Utility Services has historically been interpreted to include all utility services, even though the code is in Chapter 51, Electricity. Jose noted the proposed Ordinance 1530 will carry the same spirit as 51.21 with language to more clearly include all utility services while being placed in Chapter 50 General Provisions. It will also clearly state the requirement for meters to be installed as part of any authorization to measure usage of the ultimate user. 19 Shane stated historically all resale authorizations have required meters to be installed as part of the authorization. This requirement was made to ensure that no ultimate user was being overcharged for water or sewer services. Shane noted there has never been a resale authorization for electricity in the city, as individual metering is required for electricity and gas by the state. Shane noted City Staff have seen several instances where entities are proposing to utilize a ratio-based system to try to resell utility services. This updated code will be better suited to prohibit these systems. Shane reported SDCL 49-34-14 Overcharging; was amended in 2024. The update removed multiple services including water from the list of services that could not be overcharged for. Shane noted while this update has removed water from the list, it is the staff’s belief that requiring submetering assures that the ultimate users within our system are not being overcharged for utility services that they utilize. 137-25 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. 1530 entitled An Ordinance Amending City Of Vermillion Code Of Ordinances Title V, Public Works; Chapter 50, General Provisions By Adding Section 50.03, Resale Of Utility Services of the City of Vermillion, South Dakota has been read and the Ordinance has been considered to advance to the second reading at this meeting being a regularly called meeting of the Governing Body of the City on this 5th day of May, 2025 at the Council Chambers in City Hall in the manner prescribed by SDCL 9-19-7 as amended. The motion was seconded by Council Member Cheeseman. After discussion the question of adoption of the resolution was put to a vote of the Governing Body and 0 members voted in favor of and 9 members voted in opposition to the motion. Mayor Cole declared the motion adopted. J. First Reading of Ordinance 1531 Amending Title V, Public Works; Chapter 51, Electricity; Section 51.21, Resale of Utility Services Clarifying Existing Language. Shane Griese, Utilities Manager, reported City Code Section 51.21 prohibits utility customers from reselling services to any third party 20 without City Council authorization. It also clearly states metering responsibility in the event authorization is granted. Shane stated the proposed amendment to 51.21 updates the language to align with language in the previous item, Ordinance 1530. Shane noted Ordinance 1531 does not take away from or add to the spirit of the original code. It is simply updating some language to assure both sections of City Code align. The language has been reviewed by the City Attorney. 138-25 Mayor Cole read the title to the above-mentioned ordinance and Council Member Leber moved adoption of the following resolution: BE IT RESOLVED that the minutes of this meeting shall show that the title to proposed Ordinance No. 1531 entitled An Ordinance Amending Title V, Public Works; Chapter 51, Electricity; Section 51.21, Resale of Utility Services Clarifying Existing Language of the City of Vermillion, South Dakota has been read and the Ordinance has been considered to advance to the second reading at this meeting being a regularly called meeting of the Governing Body of the City on this 5th day of May, 2025 at the Council Chambers in City Hall in the manner prescribed by SDCL 9-19-7 as amended. The motion was seconded by Council Member Hellwege. After discussion the question of adoption of the resolution was put to a vote of the Governing Body and 9 members voted in favor of and 0 members voted in opposition to the motion. Mayor Cole declared the motion adopted. K. Service Rights Agreement with Clay Rural Water System. Shane Griese, Utilities Manager, reported on a service agreement with Clay Rural Water System. Shane noted the property known as Lot 3, Block 2 Arobba Addition, was annexed into City limits on March 7, 2011. Shane noted the property is addressed as 2532 E. Main Street. Earlier on this agenda is the second reading of Ordinance 1529 to rezone the property from NRC – Natural Resource Conservation to R-2 Residential zoning. This property has been undeveloped during the time it has been in the City limits. Shane stated the property was recently purchased, and the new owners have requested water service from the City. Clay Rural Water System (CRWS) currently has a service at this location that they utilize as a sampling site for their distribution system. There has not been an active customer at this location since at least 2011. 21 139-25 Council Member Jennewein moved approval of the Service Rights Agreement with Clay Rural Water System for Lot 3, Block 2 Arobba Addition.

John Prescott, City Manager, reported that the University of South Dakota has historically been utilizing Plum Street, between Highway 50 and East Cherry Street, during their Move-In Day. John stated that the traffic control for the move-in requires the assistance of the City and the DOT. John stated that the request from USD is included in the packet.

Final Plat of Marv Addition (Property Located at the Northeast Corner of Princeton Avenue and South Dakota Highway 50). Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported the owners of the property have submitted a final plat for the 37.1-acre property they own on the northeast corner of the intersection between SD Highway 50 and Princeton Avenue. The area consists of farmland, and at one point included a small homestead that was platted separately. The owners want to combine the smaller parcel with the larger tract of land to make a large 37.1-acre parcel. The plat was reviewed by the County’s Planning Commission at their April 21st meeting. After reviewing the plat, they motioned to recommend the City Council approve the plat as presented. Jose stated the land being platted is within the Joint Jurisdictional Zoning Area. Final plats within this area are required by State statute and City ordinance to be presented to the County’s Planning Commission 23 for their recommendation to the City Council.

Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported the existing capital improvement plan for the airport calls for the reconstruction of the parallel taxiway. Jose stated that bids were opened on April 30, 2025 and six bids were received. The low bid was from ASCO, of Sioux Falls, SD, at $1,286,918.50 The bids were as follows: ASCO, Sioux Falls, SD $1,286,918.50; Soukup Construction, Inc., Sioux Falls, SD $1,292,292.00; Webster Scale, Inc., Webster, SD $1,451,358.75; Double H Paving, Inc., Tea, SD $1,603,766.02; VanderPol Dragline, Inc., Mitchell, SD $1,642,693.00; Knife River Midwest, LLC, Sioux City, IA $2,031,088.99 Jose noted that when reviewing the proposals received, the consultant ensures that the math is correct in the bid and that the Disadvantage Business Enterprise (DBE) requirements are met. The proposal from the apparent low bidder (ASCO) was correct, but did not demonstrate a good faith effort when looking for a DBE. He did not contact any DBE within the appropriate time prior to the bid opening. On the other hand, the second low bidder had a good bid and a DBE as part of their bid. The error from the apparent low bidder (ASCO) requires that their proposal be excluded from consideration. Jose stated that the State and Federal Grant will cover 97.5% of all costs. 25 145-25 Council Member Jennewein moved approval of the bid from Soukup Construction, Inc., Sioux Falls, SD $1,292,292.00.
