Residents request town-hall on Elizabeth Street plans at Pierre commission meeting
Summary
Three residents urged the city to hold a town hall or special meeting to discuss proposed plans for the Elizabeth and Grand Avenue intersection, saying the current proposal lacks sufficient public engagement.
Three residents urged the City of Pierre to provide more public engagement on a planned reconstruction at Elizabeth and Grand Avenue during the March 17 commission meeting. Sigrid Swanson, Kevin Kumpf and Mark Zickrick each spoke in opposition to the proposed Elizabeth Street construction project and asked the commission to schedule a town hall or special meeting so residents could ask questions, review alternatives and provide input.
The comments were made during the public-comment period and no formal action on the project was taken at the session. Commission President Huizenga did not announce a date for additional public outreach; the transcript records only the residents' request. The issue remains pending and was not on the formal consent or action items approved that evening.
