Summary

Staff asked the committee to authorize the GIS specialist as the city's signatory for Department of Revenue annexation portal submissions to ensure boundary updates are filed; the committee approved forwarding the appointment to council.

A staff member explained the South Dakota Department of Revenue maintains a portal for updating municipal boundaries after annexations and that the city had not been using it. The staff member asked the committee to recommend that the GIS specialist be designated as the city's authorized representative and signatory for submitting annexation notices and approved resolutions through that portal.

Committee members said the request is to clean up administrative practice and that the signatory would only transmit council-approved resolutions; a motion recommending approval of the GIS specialist as authorized representative was moved, seconded and approved to be forwarded to council.
