Commission approves agenda additions, contracts, payments and ordinances in March 17 meeting
Summary
The Huron City Commission approved the meeting agenda with a late addition and voted on a series of procurement, payment, land-use and ordinance items, including a splash-park restoration contract, a six-figure payment for the solid waste transfer station, and the second reading of a flood-prevention ordinance.
The Huron City Commission on March 17 approved its agenda with one correction and a late addition and passed a series of routine and substantive items including contracts, a progress payment, a land-use agreement and the second reading of a flood-damage prevention ordinance.
The commission voted, by roll call, to approve: (1) the revised agenda (correction to an ordinance reference and addition of an irrigation project at Campbell Park); (2) a request to advertise for bids for CRS-2P asphalt emulsion with a budget of $84,869 and a bid opening set for April 8, 2025; (3) an agreement with Amusement Restoration Companies for work on the Splash Central water feature and water slide; (4) payment request No. 12 from North Star Logistics LLC, doing business as Century Crane, in the amount of $761,185.09 for the solid waste transfer station project; (5) a land access and use agreement with the South Dakota Army National Guard for field training exercises on city property; (6) the second reading and approval of ordinance 22-70-18-70 to amend the city’s flood damage prevention rules; (7) plat approval for Tract 1, Stoney Run Park (John and Carrie Dirksen); and (8) an irrigation repair project at Campbell Park.
Why it matters: the items include a large single payment tied to the transfer station construction, a multi-component restoration contract for the city’s water park, and ordinance changes required to comply with federal flood-insurance program standards. The commission took these votes as part of regular business after staff presentations and brief discussion.
