Committee advances Business Improvement District No. 2 ordinance; Mount Rushmore Road BID board appointment noted in public comment
Summary
The Legal and Finance Committee held second reading and introduced Ordinance No. 6,690 to create Business Improvement District No. 2 and recorded public comment supporting the Mount Rushmore Road BID board appointment.
At second reading and introduction on Sept. 10 the committee considered Ordinance No. 6,690, which amends the Rapid City Municipal Code to create Business Improvement District No. 2. Councilwoman Seacrest moved the ordinance and Lehman seconded; the committee approved the ordinance on voice vote. The transcript records: "There was a motion by Seacrest and a second by Lehman ... All in favor? Aye. All opposed? Motion carries."
Earlier in the meeting, during general public comment, Deborah Jensen, identifying herself as "president of the Mount Rushmore Road Group," spoke in favor of item number 3 on the agenda and thanked the mayor for appointing the group to the Mount Rushmore Road Business Improvement District board. Jensen told the committee the corridor is central to downtown commerce, medical facilities, historic sites, tourism and dining and urged the committee to confirm the appointment.
The committee approved items 2 and 3 (mayor's office items) during the consent calendar without recorded roll-call tallies. The ordinance introduction on the floor constituted second reading and the motion carried by voice vote; no additional substantive amendments were recorded during the meeting segment.
