A project representative and owner Dave Winters presented a conceptual master plan for a large property near the Deadwood city limits that envisions three primary areas: continued single‑family residential, a ministry/commercial core with auditorium and program space, and an area of tiny homes served by shared septic systems. The project team said the tiny homes could provide ministry housing, staff lodging and short‑term rentals to support the ministry financially.
Staff recommended the Planned Unit Development (PUD) process as the appropriate tool to accommodate multiple uses and phased development. Staff also advised that commercial buildings (auditorium, kitchen, retail) will require full third‑party commercial review and that shared septic systems and pod systems for tiny homes will likely require state commercial septic approval. Staff warned the project will likely need additional parking beyond the schematic shown. The board treated the presentation as informational and encouraged the applicants to proceed with formal PUD and layout plans and to prepare required technical studies.
