HEARING
Pat Herman, Assistant Planning & Zoning Director, was present for the public hearing to consider a request from Timothy Tiahrt to rezone property at Tract 3A (Except N. 150') France's Tracts S 1/2 SW 1/4 Section 7-T102N-R49W from the A-1 Agricultural District to the C Commercial District, located at the Northeast corner of Crooks/Renner 1-29 Exit. Properties at the three other corners of the intersection are zoned for commercial and industrial use. Rezoning of this property would be consistent with the development pattern of the area and fits the Minnehaha County Comprehensive Plan. Planning Staff received a petition signed by area residents who oppose the rezoning. One adjacent property owner has expressed concerns about drainage. The Planning Commission heard this item at their July 23rd meeting and is advancing the request with a unanimous recommendation of approval. Petitioner Tim Tiahrt spoke on his plan to build a 50 unit storage facility on the property. Pat Schwebach, JSA Consulting Engineers, spoke on the development of the site plan to ensure the drainage pattern is not disturbed. Opponents Al Bolton, Gordon Bolton, and Bruce Mack spoke in opposition to the rezoning stating concerns over a potential for devaluation of their property and safety issues related to an increase in traffic. MOTION by Pekas, seconded by Heiberger, to uphold the recommendation of the Planning Commission and approve Ordinance MC16-122-12. Commissioner Pekas stated that this area has been continually looked at for development of commercial and industrial activity and there are businesses that would prefer to operate outside of the City of Sioux Falls to avoid having to pay city sales tax. VOTE ON MOTION, 5 ayes. The entire ordinance is on file in the office of the County Auditor and available for inspection during regular business hours.
SURPLUS
MOTION by Pekas, seconded by Beninga to declare property on the list identified as Exhibit A as surplus for disposal at the Sept. 15, 2012 public auction and to authorize the Auditor to publish the Notice of Sale. 5 ayes.

4. Presentation of Financial Statements for month of April and May, 2012
Ketcham presented the monthly financial statements and overtime reports for the month of April and May, 2012.
He reported staffing is currently down because of vacancies and multiple long-term leave, resulting in increased overtime projections in the months ahead.
He reminded the council that 2012 legislative changes would take affect July 1st when 911 surcharges would increase along with the additional receipt of incentive funds; remittances would also begin flowing through the state rather than directly to the agency from providers. The agency does not anticipate any issues with cash flow during this transition, or any issues for compliance with legislative requirements for receipt of the new incentive funds.
He advised the board of an unbudgeted capital expenditure for a new a/c at the VA simulcast tower site, along with his goal to find funds within the current budget for the estimated costs.

5. Approval of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Quality Oversight agreement with Sioux Falls Department of Health (SF DOH)
Ketcham reviewed the proposed agreement with SF DOH for EMS Quality Oversight, which would replace the current one year agreement approved by the council in 2011. He reported the proposed agreement lowered agency EMS oversight costs to $29,000 and was the result of negotiations with DOH Director Jill Franken and various other city staff.
Franken advised the reduction also reflects recommendation an existing staff person become the responsibility of the city, identified needs from our local EMS Director, and nationwide trends for EMS services, noting the reduced costs to the agency are not reflective of the total costs of staff providing all EMS related services within the City.
Motion made by Commissioner Pekas, seconded by Jamison, to approve the agreement between Metro Communications Agency and SF DOH for EMS Quality Oversight as presented. Motion carried.
