The full story

Zoning Administrator Kyle Krier and consultants Chris Webb and Jason Walker presented a proposed scope and budget to develop a new comprehensive plan for Pipestone County. The plan would replace the county’s 2004 plan, include an adaptable list of deliverables and a proposed budget of $88,000, and tentatively allow up to 16 strategic planning meetings during an 18-month effort (meeting count can be reduced). The Planning Commission is designated to steer the program. Commissioner Dallas Roskamp moved to approve the project as presented; Commissioner Doug Nagel seconded and the motion carried unanimously among those present.
