Council approved Ordinance 370 amending the city’s public-nuisance code on vegetation and adopted Ordinance 371 providing 2025 supplemental appropriations to complete the fiscal year; both measures passed on roll call.

The Crooks City Council approved two ordinances on second reading addressing municipal code changes and year-end budget adjustments.

Ordinance 370 amends Title 7 (public nuisances) to update requirements related to trees, shrubs, noxious weeds and property-owner duties; the Chair read the second reading and members discussed a 12-foot provision before approving the ordinance. “A second reading of ordinance 370, an ordinance of the city of Crooks, South Dakota amending the municipal code of the city of Crooks by amending Title 7 public nuisances…” the Chair stated when introducing the ordinance.

Council then took up Ordinance 371, described as providing for 2025 supplemental appropriations to finish the year, and voted to adopt the measure on roll call.

Both measures passed by roll call vote. The council did not record substantive public testimony on either ordinance during the meeting; implementation will follow standard municipal procedures for codification and budget posting.
