At a regular meeting, the City Council approved the first reading of ordinance 7 46, a rezoning measure, and moved forward a package of municipal items including golf-course rates, a software subscription for tee-time confirmations, and a transit agreement with the South Dakota Department of Transportation.
Speaker 3 moved to approve the rezone on first reading, saying the vote "is the first step and, it gives us some time" to examine alternative locations and noting the measure had been reviewed by planning and zoning. The council took a roll call; Fish, Johnson and Cole were recorded as "Aye," Marceau recorded "No," and Council Member Lawrence had been excused earlier; the tally was announced as 3 to 2 in favor.
