Commission to seek the group's advice and guidance. Works of art that came into the
City collection prior to adoption of this policy will be subject to this deaccessioning
procedure. A permanent record of all deaccessioned objects shall be kept, including
the conditions and date of the action. All documents including the authorization for the
action taken shall be kept in the City's files. A written statement of the City's policies
and procedures with respect to accessioning and deaccessioning of public art

II. Obtaining Art
Accessioning
The term "accessioning" is the process under which legal title to an artwork is
acquired for the public art collection. This can be through commissioning, gifts,
purchases, bequests, exchange and any other formal processes or transactions by
which legal title to an artwork is acquired for the City public art collection.
Brookings Arts Commission
Annually, the BPAC will commission a public art space that dramatically improves the
quality of life for residents and visitors. The funding for the commission is provided by
the Brookings Public Arts Fund and can be rolled over to the following year to enable
transformative works. Additionally, private donations are encouraged to support the
size and scope of the annual commission.
The BPAC will create the selection process for the annual commission to begin in 2017
and add that process to the Public Art Guidelines.
Donations
The City of Brookings subscribes to a policy of selective acquisition of art with
preference for works of art that are of significant artistic merit. Care and discernment
are exercised in acquiring artworks because of limitations of staffing and finances to
manage the public art collection and the desire to collect significant art of high quality.
Donations are an important part of the City of Brookings’ art collection. The City has
limited funds for administration, protection and maintenance. Likewise, there are a
limited number of suitable municipal sites appropriate for the installation of artwork.
To ensure the quality of the collection, BPAC uses the guidance in this policy to
decide whether a proposed donation is appropriate for addition to the City’s
collection. BPAC accepts only those works that will, in its discretion, further the goals
of the Public Art Guidelines.
Review Consideration
In reviewing a potential donation, BPAC typically considers the information requested
above, as well as aesthetic quality (including craftsmanship), compatibility with the
City’s existing public art collection, and budget. The Commission may consider other
factors contained in its Accessioning and Deaccessioning Policy.
Process for Consideration
BPAC requests that individuals or entities interested in donating an artwork follow these
steps:
1. Submit a complete official donation application to the Brookings City Clerk.
This form may be obtained from the City website.
2. Provide a maquette and/or images or the actual work for review. Images can be
provided electronically or by hard copy and should show all sides and provide
the proper scale of the work.
3. Include a cover letter explaining that the artwork is being offered to the City as a
gift and explain why the work should be added to the City’s public art collection.
4. Provide a copy of the artist’s resume or biography; information about the
artist’s significance; and digital images showing a sampling of the artist’s
work.
5. Provide information about the artwork’s provenance, exhibition history, and a
current estimate of value. Include a letter of authenticity from the artist, if
possible.
6. Provide a conservation assessment describing the artwork’s condition, along
with a maintenance plan. The plan should include an explanation of the
expected life span of the work while placed in a public environment,
stipulating the type of environment (interior/exterior) in which the artwork may
be placed. The plan should also discuss whether the artwork may be prone to
vandalism and how the effects of any vandalism may be mitigated; it should
be authored by the artist or a qualified conservator.
7. BPAC may request additional information.
Funds to maintain artworks in the City’s collection are limited. Therefore, when
accepting a gift into the City’s collection, BPAC may require that the donor sign a
maintenance agreement or establish a maintenance endowment to ensure an
adequate quality of care for the artwork. The Brookings Public Arts Commission is
unlikely to consider any donation that requires immediate or extensive maintenance.
BPAC typically reviews gifts during their meetings, which are announced publicly on
the City website. After review, BPAC may choose to accept or decline a gift, or to
table an offer.
Deaccesioning
Artworks proposed to be deaccessioned must be reviewed by BPAC to seek the
group's advice and guidance. Works of art that came into the City collection prior to
adoption of this policy will be subject to this deaccessioning procedure. A permanent
record of all deaccessioned objects shall be kept, including the conditions and date of
the action. All documents including the authorization for the action taken shall be kept
in the City's files.
“Deaccessioning” is a procedure for withdrawing the display of a work of art from the
City of Brooking’s public collection. BPAC is responsible for deciding whether any
piece(s) should be deaccessioned. Deaccessioning occurs only for good reason, in
the BPAC’s discretion.
Basis for Deaccessioning
The BPAC may deaccession an artwork for one or more of the following reasons:
-The artwork endangers public safety;
-The artwork has been determined to be in unsatisfactory condition;
-The artwork lacks a suitable display site;
-The condition or security of the artwork cannot be reasonably guaranteed where
located;
-The artwork is attached to a structure slated for destruction, remodeling or repair
(so that it is not practical to keep the artwork);
-The artwork is or has become incompatible with the rest of the collection;
-The City wishes to replace the artwork with a piece of more significance by
the same artist;
-The artwork requires excessive maintenance or has faults of design or
workmanship.
-The artwork is fraudulent or not authentic;
-The artwork is found to misrepresent the the mission of the BPAC in its content,
graphic representation, textual representation, or other;
-The City cannot properly care for or store the artwork; or
-For any other reason articulated by the BPAC, in its discretion.
Process/Disposition
The BPAC will review the pieces in the City’s collection - at least every five years - to
determine whether any piece(s) should be deaccessioned and will make updates to
the BPAC record of public arts both on display or in holding. In addition, the City
reserves the right to deaccession an artwork at any time deemed appropriate by the
BPAC. Deaccessioning may only be considered during a monthly or a special meeting
of the BPAC. A majority of representatives of the BPAC must approved
deaccessioning for two consecutive votes. After the first vote, a public announcement
of the plan to deaccession must be made to permit public input prior to the second
vote. After the second vote, and with approval by the City Manager of Brookings, the
artwork shall be officially deaccessioned from the City collection.
The BPAC may consider the following options for disposition of a deaccessioned
artwork:
1. Return to the artist;
2. Sale or trade;
3. Destruction (which shall be reserved for works deteriorated or damaged
beyond reasonably-priced repair);
4. Donation; or
5. Any option deemed appropriate by the BPAC.
A written statement of the City's policies and procedures with respect to
accessioning and deaccessioning of public art collection items shall be made
available to donors and other persons upon request.
III. Maintenance
Goal
The goal of the Public Art Maintenance Policy is to maintain the City’s collection of
publicly owned artwork to ensure Brookings citizens’ long-term enjoyment of the
collection. The Public Art Maintenance Policy spells out the documentation,
preservation, and maintenance processes that will support that goal. The Public Art
Maintenance Policy will be implemented on a piece-specific basis that recognizes the
value of each work of art in the collection.
Process
1.Documentation.The initial documentation will occur before a piece is accepted
into the City collection. A standardized form will be used for this purpose. The
Brookings Public Arts Commission will identify appropriate City departments and
staff (Facilities & Maintenance, Parks & Recreation), outside contractors, service
people and experts to review this documentation.
Documentation will reside in the official city records. BPAC will be responsible
for creating and maintaining the documentation. BPAC will use the projected
cost of maintenance as one consideration in its final determination of
acceptance and placement. Although documentation and maintenance
recommendation alone will not be used to specifically exclude artwork from the
City collection, the recommendation may play a role in that final determination.
(A documentation fund established in the Public Art Fund budget will pay for
documentation not obtained at acquisition.)
2.Maintenance documentation.When an artwork is accepted into the City
collection, an initial level of maintenance and a maintenance schedule will be
established for it. The documentation will include a standard for regular
maintenance (e.g., timing, type of maintenance) and identify any maintenance
issues that may require special attention. Each medium will require
knowledgeable people to develop maintenance criteria. In addition, the
maintenance criteria may include future historic and aesthetic considerations for
each piece. The maintenance documentation may be reviewed and revised as
needed.
3.Inspection and Condition Report.Annually, the Brookings Public Arts
Commission will initiate an inspection and condition report. Paid professional
condition appraisers/conservators and/or knowledgeable volunteers,
craftspeople or industry experts will perform the inspection for each piece. The
inspection and condition report will become part of the permanent
documentation of the specific piece and will reside with the official city records
of the City.
4.Regular maintenance.Paid professionals and/or trained and supervised
volunteers will perform regular maintenance according to the maintenance
schedule and condition report for each specific piece annually. The BPAC will
initiate and coordinate the regular maintenance activities. Each exterior piece,
not receiving hot wax or special treatment, will receive a cold wax treatment.
5. Special Maintenance.Credentialed professionals/craftspersons or
knowledgeable volunteer will perform maintenance that requires specialized
tools, equipment, or knowledge on an “as needed” basis. The BPAC will use
the condition report and/or site visits to determine need.
6.Emergency Maintenance or Repair.Paid professionals/craftspeople or
knowledgeable volunteers will perform emergency maintenance or repair on
an “as needed” timely basis as determined by the designated city staff.
Implementation
1.Policy Implementation.Designated city staff and volunteers will implement and
monitor the Public Art Maintenance Policy and will report to the BPAC annually,
or more often if needed, on the status of art work maintenance. City staff will
oversee the quality control, evaluation and corrective maintenance actions
carried out by this policy.
2.Funding.Funding for maintenance will be established through a budget
developed by the BPAC and presented to the BPAC each November. Funds
will come from the Brookings Public Art Fund. Maintenance funding will take
precedent over art purchases.
3.Contract Services.Contracts with paid professionals/ craftspeople will follow
established City guidelines and will be handled through the appropriate City
department.
4.Quality Control.The BPAC believes in regulating the quality of maintenance to
an established standard. Therefore the BPAC will work over time to collect
maintenance data (e.g. Lacquer vs. waxing, annual vs. biannual maintenance,
professional vs. volunteer, etc.) The BPAC and city staff will use this data to
develop specific quality standards and devise ways to measure if the standards
are met. Once established, the standards will be used to collect relevant data,
analyze that data, and create corrective action plans as needed. City staff will
identify specific areas of comparison (e.g. using multiple contractors and
comparing the results of their work) and documenting specific maintenance
challenges and failures (and their solutions).
5.Policy Review.Annually BPAC members and/or city staff will recommend
changes to the Public Art Maintenance Policy to the BPAC..
6.Attachments.Forms that will be used to implement the policy will be attached
as exhibits to the policy and modified as needed during the annual policy
review process.
Inventory
The BPAC will develop an inventory of public artworks in Brookings. A copy of
the public artworks inventory as updated, annually, by the BPAC, will be made
available on the City website.
Ideally, the following information will be recorded in the inventory and database:
Title of the artwork
Medium
Dimensions
Photograph(s)
Value, if available
Artist
Location
Year created
Year acquired
Donor, if donated
Maintenance/conservation instructions
Information regarding newly acquired artworks should be entered into the inventory and
database by the BPAC as the artworks are installed. The inventory should be
structured and managed so as to be a resource to community residents and visitors
seeking to view Brooking’s public art collection. Current information is included as an
addendum.
IV. Additional Responsibilities and Opportunities
Art Opportunities Map
The BPAC will initiate the development of an inventory of public property on which
public artworks may be located within the City of Brookings. A copy of the Public Art
Opportunities Map will be made available on the City website. Information regarding
public property on which public artworks may be located should be entered onto the
Public Art Opportunities Map by the BPAC as potential locations are identified. The map
should be structured and managed so as to be a resource to the community as well as
groups or individuals wishing to place artworks on public property.
Art Integration
In addition to its responsibilities of acquiring and maintaining public art, the BPAC is a
resource for the City of Brookings. Other city departments as well as the Brookings
City Council are encouraged to seek input from the Brookings Public Arts Commision
to integrate the arts throughout the City, in its building projects and in the City’s Master
Plan. Opportunities for input could include, but are not limited to:
Construction and maintenance of streets, boulevards and public right of ways
Construction of bike lanes and bike parking
Beautification of common items such as electric boxes, sidewalks, street signs,
etc.
Public parks and spaces
Other building projects that may provide opportunities for public art including
alleys, walls and under-utilized spaces
Public-Private Partnership
The successful creation and execution of a strategy for public art in Brookings, SD
requires a network of public and private partnerships. The City alone does not have the
staff or resources to acquire an extensive inventory of public art. The private sector
alone cannot site art on public or City property. Together the public and private sectors
can translate the community vision of supporting the creative class and high quality of
life in Brookings into a systematic program for the selection, acquisition and display of
public art including pieces on City property. The governance arrangement for this
process must of necessity be collaborative rather than hierarchical. Significant and
interdependent roles will be played by the Mayor, BPAC, individual donors, local arts
organizations, South Dakota State University and various other municipal and private
entities.
No work of art financed or installed either wholly or in part with city funds or with grants
procured by the city shall be installed on privately owned property without a written
agreement between the commission, acting on behalf of the city, and the owner
specifying the proprietary interests in the work of art and specifying other provisions
deemed necessary or desirable by the city attorney. In addition, such written agreement
shall specify that the private property owner shall assure:
1. That the installation of the work of art will be done in a manner which will protect
the work of art and the public;
2. That the work of art will be maintained in good condition; and
3. That insurance and indemnification will be provided as is appropriate.
Ownership in a partnership
It is anticipated that most of the public artworks displayed on municipal property or
public art easements will be either owned by the City of Brookings, private foundations,
charitable organizations, individuals, and displayed on municipal property through a
license agreement. In some instances, privately owned artworks suitable for display on
public property may be secured through a loan agreement.
Public artwork is to be identified with a plaque or marker identifying the owner (e.g.,
City of Brookings Public Art Collection), the artist's name, title of the work, and year
created. The plaque or marker may include the name(s) of the donor. Corporate script
or logos are not permitted.
Monetary Donation
With these goals in mind, several mechanisms of public and private funding
should be considered. Financial contributions and gifts by corporations,
private individuals and foundations can leverage limited public dollars.
Regardless of the source, it is important to know what constitutes usual and
customary expenditures for public art projects. The following items represent
the types of expenditures generally associated with the commissioning and
placement of public artwork. The following are representative of expenditures
to be considered:
Cost of actual artwork.
Artist and artwork-selection-related expenses including proposal and project
related honoraria.
Documentation and public education materials.
Pre-design, design, planning and service contracts.
Expenses for technical assistance provided by architects or engineers.
A designated fund for project costs, maintenance, restoration, and conservation.
Site preparation.
With these considerations in mind, a combination of public and private investments as
described above will allow the City of Brookings to develop a robust public art
collection that will enhance its environment for generations to come.
Donors may contribute money to acquire, install and/or maintain art. Gifts should be
directed to the City of Brookings - Public Art Fund. The City of Brookings serves as the
entity that collects, controls and administers the dispersal of the contributed financial
resources.
Donations from the private sector or grants from the private or public sector shall be
encouraged as a means to broaden the existing program potential. These funds shall be
maintained in a separate fund for the public art program.
V. Insurance
Indemnity and Liability. The Artist will be required to release and agree to save and
hold harmless the City, and their officers, officials, members, agents, and employees
from any and all causes of action, suits in law of equity, or demands or claims, or from
any liability of any nature arising out of the construction and creation of the Work and
from any obligations made by the Artist or the Artist’s agents and/or employees.
The organizing individual or group should provide liability coverage for the property
owner and all individuals involved in installing the artwork. The donor is responsible for
all insurance costs until title to an artwork is transferred to the City. Prior thereto, the
City must be named on all insurance documents and proof of insurance must be
provided with the proposal paperwork. All risks for damages, theft, vandalism, and Acts
of God to the Work are the responsibility of the Artist during any and all operations,
including creation, transit and storage by the Artist, which take place on other than the
Site. The Artist shall provide a policy of insurance, covering all risks and hazards
against any damage to or loss of the Work while it is being made, transported, installed
or stored by the Artist.
The City is responsible for all risks for damages, theft, vandalism, and Acts of God to
the Work during any and all operations after its installation and acceptance of the Work.
The Artist shall be responsible for all damage, claims, and liability arising from, growing
out of damages caused by the Artist or the Artist’s employees or claims that may occur
as a result of the Artist’s breach of warranties.
ADDENDUM
BROOKINGS

ART ORGANIZATIONS
Brookings Arts Council. The inaugural meeting of the Brookings Area Arts Council
took place on January 30, 1969, and the organization was incorporated in 1975. Not
long after, the former Carnegie Library building became available, and the BAC took
responsibility for administering the building as the Community Cultural Center (CCC).
The CCC, incorporated in 1979, originally had its own board of directors, but for greater
efficiency, merged with the BAC in 1990 under the name Brookings Community Cultural
Center. In 1992, the name was changed to the Brookings Arts Council, as it is known
today.
In its 35 plus years, the Brookings Arts Council’s mission has been to “encourage
community connections through the arts providing a supportive environment for
awareness, appreciation and participation.” The BAC seeks to educate the public,
while increasing opportunities for artists to gain recognition through juried art and
photography exhibitions. The BAC also provides a platform for the younger artists by
sponsoring exhibits of work by students from kindergarten through high school.
South Dakota Art Museum.As steward of the state’s art treasures, the South
Dakota Art Museum collects, preserves and exhibits visual art to provide access and
education, to foster appreciation of the visual arts for the people of South Dakota and
its visitors.

PUBLIC ART & SPACES
“The Urban Canvas”
Robbie Jelsma, Brookings Downtown, 2015
“Lot Lines”
Scott Wallace
Brookings Public Library
Sculpture: “Lot Lines” by Scott Wallace
Dedicated September 21, 2002
A much larger than life steel-sculpted tulip on a steel pedestal, this sculpture was the
work of Scott Wallace, South Dakota State University Associate Professor of Visual
Arts. The piece was selected after a six-year search by the eight-member Brookings
Sculpture Committee and is the fourth in a series of outdoor sculptures selected for
Brookings.
The sculpture fits well in the Library’s east window area. It has a number of shadows
and lines that change with the seasons and patrons enjoy watching those changes.
This cost of this sculpture was $15,000, paid for by donations.
“The Owl: Celebrate a Century of Learning”
Brookings Public Library
Dedicated April 17, 1988
Officially named “Celebrate a Century of Learning”, this Palmer Eide sculpture is more
commonly called “Owl and Owlet”. It is sculpted from Indiana limestone and placed on a
black graphite base and is located in the southeast window area of the Brookings Public
Library.
The sculpture was the first outdoor sculpture in the city of Brookings and was part of
the Brookings community’s celebration of the South Dakota Centennial. The Brookings
Area Arts Council commissioned South Dakota sculptor, Palmer Eide, Professor
Emeritus of Art at Augustana College, to create a sculpture on the theme “Celebrate a
Century of Learning”, setting an early precedent for “art in public places”. Just as the
public library belongs to every member of the community, so does its art.
Original cost: $12,085 which was funded by grants and donations.
“Circle of Friends”
Brookings Public Library, K. E. Crain
The “Circle of Friends” sculpture is a cylinder with a simple band around the outside
that contains the engraved titles of several books that appeal to young readers. It has a
young girl, who is patterned from the sculptor’s youngest daughter, who also checked
out as many books as she could from her library. The girl is settled comfortably in the
cylinder with her favorite book. The cylinder is balanced on a pyramid base of books
with a bas-relief of the Secret Garden gate on one side and a depiction of the ”The
Island of the Blue Dolphin” on the other side.
The sculpture was a gift from the family of Mardell J. Peterson as a memorial to
Peterson who passed away in 2011. The Peterson family hopes that the Library
sculpture will inspire children to discover the wonderful world of books.
The sculpture is valued at $4000. It is located in the New Book display area of the
Brookings Public Library.
“Sculpture Project Sanctuary”
Larson Park, 8/30/1990, $20,000
“The Guardian”
Bronze Sculpture, Brookings Public Safety Building,
12/31/2012, $70,000
In the spring of 2012, the Brookings Police
Foundation embarked on what would later be known
as the “Guardian Project.” The Guardian Project set
out to celebrate in art form, the Brookings Police
Department’s commitment to Special Olympics as
“guardians of the flame.” Law enforcement
worldwide has long been known as “guardians of the
flame of hope” or the Law Enforcement Torch Run
for those special needs citizens.
The Brookings Police Foundation commissioned South Dakota artist, Lee Leuning, that
spring to design a sculpture that would highlight the department’s guardianship of special
needs people as well as all citizens.
Lee Leuning was born in Lake Hendricks, Minnesota and grew up in north Sioux
Falls. He attended South Dakota State University in Brookings earning a wildlife
biology degree. He worked 28 years as a wildlife officer for Tennessee and later
South Dakota. During his wildlife career he developed his artistic talents through
watercolor wildlife paintings. He attended 3 years at Northern State University
studying bronze sculpture. Lee has an innate ability to originate artworks that
appeals to a broad public. Lee is known for his attention to correct anatomy and
exacting detail in their representational works. He presently resides in his hometown
of Sioux Falls. In actuality, Lee heard of our project and with his prior law
enforcement background stated he had to be a part of this project. Lee Leuning and
Sherri Treeby formed Bad River Artworks and are well known around the state as
having contributed to several sculpture projects within the Midwest.
The “Guardian” sculpture was dedicated on November 19, 2012 at the same time the
Brookings Police Department opened its new doors to the re-dedicated Brookings
Public Safety Center. The sculpture depicts an officer sharing that special moment with
an athlete who has just won a medal while carrying the flame of hope.

Action to appoint Park and Recreation Board College Student Representative.
Summary:
Mayor Tim Reed has submitted the following appointment recommendation for City Council advice

Public Hearing and Action on Ordinance 16-011, an Ordinance to Rezone a portion of the S ½ of the
NE ¼ of Section 1-T109N-R50W from an Agricultural A District to a Residence R-1C District.
Proposal:
Create a low-density residential zoning district for approximately 27 future lots.
Background:
The petitioners have rezoned the Bluegill Addition in phases as the subdivision has expanded east.
The initial phase around 17th Avenue South was zoned for low and medium density zoning. The
original plan was to continue with low-density zoning to the east except for land near 22nd Avenue
South. The adoption of the Residence R-1C District by the city in 2011 gave developers another
option for increasing the overall density within a subdivision while maintaining a detached, single-
family housing concept. The Comprehensive Plan supports residential land uses for this area.
Specifics:
The Residence R-1C District proposal is the same zoning that was approved by the city for the
Avalon Circle area. The district permits the same density as the Residence R-2 District but restricts
the use to a single-family house. The majority of the lots planned for this area have 70’-75’ frontage
widths along with about 110’ of depth.
Recommendation:
The Planning Commission voted 8 yes and 0 no to recommend approval of the rezoning as
presented.

Public Hearing and Action on Ordinance 16-012, an Ordinance to rezone Lot 1 of Lots 1 & 2 of Lot A
of the Replat of Outlot E, Maynes Addition from a Residence R-2 District to a Planned Development
District (PDD).
Proposal:
Create a PDD on a lot adjacent to the 6th St. Centre PDD in order to provide additional parking for the
centre’s mixed uses
Background:
This property was occupied by a single-family house until 1998 when it was demolished. The owner
built a two-family dwelling on the lot in March, 2000 followed by a large detached garage later that
same year.
Notes on Adjacent Planned Development District (PDD):
The Beale Addition, abutting this parcel to the north, was zoned to a PDD in 1991. The latest
planned development for this corner lot involved a mixed-use building (6th St. Centre) with business
uses on the first floor and apartments on the second and third floors. The initial parking plan was
sufficient for the apartments and for a mix of commercial uses with varying parking requirements.
The owner had always planned to divide the first floor into 4 commercial spaces but the actual size
needed for a particular enterprise was flexible. Three of the four spaces have now been leased and
their minimum parking requirements were greater than anticipated. Therefore, the future use of the
remaining commercial space is substantially restricted by the available on-premise parking.
Specifics:
The petitioner is requesting to establish a PDD on Lot 1 in order to provide additional parking for the
6th Street Centre PDD to the north. A PDD could allow for uses at the 6th St Centre to park on Lot 1.
The parcel is bordered on the south and east by single-family dwellings. Please note that the
petitioner owns the property to the east.
The Residence R-2 District regulations are proposed in order to retain the two-family dwelling use on
the property. The properties to the south and east are also under the R-2 regulations.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval.

PDD decision making process for PC
Step 1. REZONING APPLICATION
A rezoning request to a PDD must be accompanied by an Initial Development Plan
(IDP). The plan must indicate the type of anticipated use(s) and the conventional
zoning district regulations from one or more districts that would apply to the project.
The district regulations (land uses, setbacks, parking, etc.) proposed by the petitioner
are then set out in the IDP. The commission should first determine that the proposal
meets the intent of the PDD and then proceed to recommend approval or denial of the
PDD based on a standard review of the impact of the rezoning on neighboring lands
and conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. While the process has some
overlapping steps, acting on the rezoning should be the first consideration. The
commission also has the authority to recommend a rezoning to a conventional zoning
district.
Step 2. DISTRICT USE(S) AND AREA REGULATION APPROVAL
If the area is recommended for rezoning to a PDD, the commission is then tasked with
reviewing the district uses and area regulations that have been offered by the petitioner
to see if they are appropriate for the uses proposed. Many uses are allowed in more
than one district but the area regulations are often different. It is important to reach a
consensus among the commission and the petitioner regarding the appropriate district
to be used and what use or uses are considered compatible with the surrounding
properties. There may be permitted uses within the proposed district that would be
inappropriate given the site location and these uses should be addressed in this step.
Step 3. INITIAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN APPROVAL (IDP)
Once the district uses and regulations have been finalized, the IDP must be reviewed
for compliance to the district regulations. This would involve building setbacks, height,
and design, parking spaces, driveways, landscaping, screening, and other site design
details presented on the plan. This step gives the commission the greatest degree of
flexibility in the approval or modification of one or more elements of the IDP and should
be discussed in depth.
Step 4. FINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN APPROVAL (FDP)
An FDP may be submitted concurrently with an IDP or at a subsequent meeting.
Typically, the FDP has more detail but is very similar to the IDP. However, any
modifications to the approved IDP must be reviewed and approved. The Commission
has sole authority to approve the FDP.

Action on Initial Development Plan for Lot 1 of Lots 1 & 2 of Lot A of the Replat of Outlot E, Maynes
Addition.
Summary:
A rezoning to a PDD, as submitted in Ordinance 16-012, must be accompanied by an Initial
Development Plan (IDP).
Background:
The applicant is proposing to retain a two-family dwelling use on a lot and provide additional parking
for the 6th Street Centre mixed-use development (PDD). The proposal involves the following:
·The Residence R-2 District regulations would apply to all principal uses.
·The detached garage would be removed.
·The surfacing on the lot would be expanded by approximately 1,700 square feet and the area
would be designed to accommodate 16 parking spaces. Six spaces would be reserved for the
two-family dwelling and ten spaces would be allocated for uses at the 6th Street Centre.
·A new approach and entrance walk would be constructed.
·Additional trees would be planted as shown on the site plan.
·A privacy fence would be erected along the south property line.
·The building would be resided with LP siding or equivalent and match the color scheme of the
6th Street Center by the Fall of 2019.
Recommendation:
Planning Commission voted 8-0 to recommend approval of the Initial Development Plan.

Official Minutes
Item #6a – Brian and Carla Gatzke have submitted an Initial and Final Development
Plan within a Planned Development District on Lot 1, of the Plat of Lots 1 & 2, of a
portion of Lot A of the Replat of Outlot E, Maynes Addition.
(Fargen/Lum) Motion to approve the Initial and Final Development Plan as presented.
All present voted aye. MOTION CARRIED.
Summary of Discussion
Item #5 – Hanson stated that the request was adjacent to the 6th St. Centre PDD at the
corner of 6th Street and 13th Avenue. If rezoned, the lot would be used to supplement
parking for uses at the 6th Street Centre. He added that the current use of the lot for a
two-family dwelling would remain the same and the petitioner was requesting that the
Residence R-2 District regulations be applied as the development standards for the lot.
Adjacent land uses included single-family homes to the south and east. It was noted
that the petitioner owned two of the three abutting residential properties. Gregg asked if
a separate entrance was planned for this parcel. Gatzke replied yes. Fargen inquired if
the retaining wall would remain between the 6th St. Centre and the lot. Gatzke replied
yes. Tornquist asked about the status of the adjoining properties. Gatzke responded
that he had converted his property at 1309 5th Street from a duplex to a single-family
dwelling and his property at 1315 5th Street from a tri-plex to a single-family dwelling.
The corner house was owned by another party but he had discussed landscaping and
fencing options along the common lot line with the owner.
Heuton supported the rezoning and felt it was an appropriate extension of the 6th St.
Centre PDD that abutted the parcel to the north. Gregg concurred with Heuton and felt
the proposed plan would complement the adjacent PDD.

Public Hearing and Action on Resolution 16-045, a Resolution Determining the Necessity of
Repairing or Installing Sidewalks in the City of Brookings at the Expense of Abutting Property
Owners, 2016-01SWR Concrete Maintenance Project.
Summary:
This resolution will authorize the City to proceed with the sidewalk repairs and assessment project.
Background:
This project includes replacement of existing sidewalks that are in need of repair or have trip hazards
from the 2015 sidewalk area which is east of Medary Avenue South and south of Orchard Drive and
the 2016 sidewalk area which is east of Medary Avenue South and between 6th Street and Orchard
Drive. This project was bid and awarded to Timmons Construction Inc. This resolution is the first
step in starting the assessment project for the sidewalk repairs.
The City mailed letters to the property owners giving them the option of repairing the sidewalks
themselves or to be added to the City repair project. The properties included in this project are the
sidewalks that were not completed by the property owners from the 2015 project area, and the
property owners who volunteered to be on the project in the 2016 project area. The property owners
are shown on the attached list.
The contract prices for the project, including the 6% engineering and administration fee are:
·Remove 4” thick Sidewalk:$2.92 per square foot
·Install 4” thick Sidewalk:$7.16 per square foot
·Adjust Curb Stop (if needed):$185.50 per each
Each property owner was mailed a notice of the public hearing by receipt certified mail. The City
Engineering staff received a few calls from citizens who already repair their sidewalk and their names
have been removed from the repair list. This resolution will authorize the City’s contractor to proceed
with construction of the sidewalk assessment project.
Fiscal Impact:
The City will assess the cost of the sidewalk repairs when the assessment is levied.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval.

Public Hearing and Action to adopt the Master Drainage Plan Priority List.
Summary:
This motion will adopt the Master Drainage Plan Priority List.
Background:
The City of Brookings adopted the City of Brookings Master Drainage Plan (MDP) in 2008. The
Master Drainage Plan included 12 specific study areas, 34 subwatershed areas, hydrological SWMM
model data, and cost estimates for the projects. The MDP Plan serves two purposes:
1.Identifying improvements for existing drainage conditions throughout the City of Brookings and
future growth areas; and
2.Providing supplemental SWMM model data which may be used by consultants for drainage
analysis of existing and future developments.
The City Council held discussions and gathered public input regarding the 12 specific study areas.
Each area was analyzed for its adequacy to accommodate both a 5 year and 100 year storm event.
Improvements for each of the 12 areas were recommended as well as an approximate cost of each
improvement. After the City Council adopted the MDP, discussions were held to prioritize the order
of the projects. Input was gathered local from residents, developers, and consultants and a “Project
Ranking System” was adopted by the City Council to use as a tool to prioritize and rank the drainage
projects. The first prioritized list of projects was adopted in 2009. Since many of the drainage
improvement projects are naturally interrelated, it was the intent to continue to reprioritize the list as
projects are completed. The first project was completed in 2009 at Garden Square on 8 th Street.
Due to the high costs of certain projects, it was decided that if a project could feasibly be broken up
and “phased” into smaller projects, this would provide the most amount of benefit to the whole City in
a shorter timeframe. These ‘phased’ projects were reintroduced into the prioritization formula as
separate projects. By doing so, it allowed a wider coverage, versus focusing drainage funds on one
specific area at a time. The projects completed to date are:
·Garden Square Drainage Improvement
·Southland Lane/17th Avenue Phase 1 (detention pond)
·Pheasant Nest Phase 1 (detention pond)
·Camelot Drainage Improvement Phase 1 (piping in Christine Ave.)
·20th Street South and Medary Avenue Phase 1 (North Nelson Detention Pond)
·20th Street South and Medary Avenue Phase 2 (additional pipe under 20th St S.)
·Division Avenue Phase 1, 2 and 3 (2nd St. So. detention pond, concrete valley gutter and
Western Avenue detention pond)
·6th Street Drainage Improvement Corridor Phase 1 (Main Ave. to Western Ave.)

File #:ID 2016-0377,Version:1
Neighborhood Projects
In addition to the Master Drainage Plan projects, the City has also worked on smaller drainage
improvement projects known as “Neighborhood Projects.” These projects focused on areas of
concern that were smaller in scope than the intent of the MDP, and they are generally selected based
on citizen input and observations. The following neighborhood projects have been completed or are
under construction:
·15th Street South, from 17th Avenue South to the east: Storm sewer inlets and pipe
·Copper Mountain Circle: Storm sewer inlet and pipe
·Rotary Park Drainage Improvement Project: detention pond, grading & landscaping
·Minnesota Drive and 22nd Avenue: Storm sewer inlet and pipe
·Minnesota Drive and State Street area: Storm sewer inlets and pipe
·Derdall Drive, east of 17th Avenue South: Storm sewer inlets, pipe and valley gutter to the
tracks
The 12 projects originally identified in the MDP were selected based on citizen input prior to 2008.
This was never intended to be a limit; but rather, new projects can be added to the list as new
problem areas are discovered. In 2015, the Council approved the latest prioritization list. That list
consisted of many of the previous projects broken up into phases, with the addition of the 5th Avenue
project and the State Avenue watershed. The completed projects were removed from the list.
Storm Drainage Fund Cash Flow
The Storm Drainage Fund has paid for all of the drainage projects. The neighborhood and smaller
projects have been paid out of the fund balance. The larger projects have received SRF loans
through DENR which have been at 3% interest over 20 years. The current annual loan payments are
approximately $102,000 in principal and $94,000 in interest. The advantage of constructing only one
large project per year is we can manage the project payments and budgeting. In addition, DENR
requires a detailed cash flow analysis with reserve funds for SRF loan applications, which is easier to
predict when the large projects are spread out. The last increase in the drainage fee was in 2009
and the City Council may want to consider raising the drainage fee incrementally to fund the
upcoming projects.
Project Ranking System:
The ranking of the projects is based on a series of different criteria which are applied to a formula.
The criteria are as follows:
·Potential Environmental Impact
·Number of Buildings Affected
·Occupant Evacuation
·Property Damage
·Traffic Impact
·Location in Basin
·Cost Versus Budget
·Reduced Maintenance Issues
·Infrastructure Age
·Citizen Safety
Each criterion has a certain “weighting factor” assigned to it related to the importance of the specific
City of Brookings Printed on 6/9/2016Page 2 of 4
powered by Legistar™
File #:ID 2016-0377,Version:1
criterion. For instance, “Citizen Safety” has a very high weight factor. In order to maintain
consistency each time the projects are reprioritized, these weight factors never change. For each
project on the list, a rating of 0 to 5 is assigned in each category above. The rating is multiplied by
the weight factor. Then the weighted ratings are summed up to produce a total score for each
project. The City Council adopted the ranking rubric and weighting factors in 2009 prior to any
projects being ranked in the rubric.
The estimated costs for each project are based on the cost of the whole project, not just the drainage
portion of the project. For instance, installing a storm sewer may involve reconstructing an entire
street which costs more than the storm sewer. The total cost is taken into consideration when
prioritizing because the storm sewer and the street are codependent and cannot be separated;
although the City may pay for the project from two separate budgets.
It was the City’s intent to reprioritize the project list approximately every three years because, in
addition to new projects, the completion of other projects can affect the score of the remaining
projects. For example, construction of a detention pond in one part of the city could reduce peak
storm flows into another; thereby reducing the urgency of storm sewer improvements downstream.
City Engineering staff has examined each of the completed projects and their effects in their
respective watersheds.
The Latest Prioritization List:
The 2016 MDP project list includes all previously uncompleted projects; plus two new projects. The
new projects are:
1.SDSU University Blvd drainage improvement - this is a replacement of the existing culverts
under University Blvd (formerly11th Street) on the east side of campus. The culverts are aging
and do not have adequate capacity. This project will reduce flooding on and upstream of
University Blvd by allowing the 100yr storm flow to safely pass under the street.
The previous prioritized list included the SDSU Regional Detention Pond. The SDSU
watershed model was studied and staff recommends a cost share of the regional pond at 50%
City/50% SDSU. The regional pond benefits the lower Six Mile Creek watershed by reducing
sediment loads and peak flows into the creek. The cost shown on the prioritized list is 50% of
the construction costs for the pond.
2.The City received a request to construct Medary Avenue and the watershed was further
broken up into phases so that it could be analyzed in greater detail. One of the new phases
added to the priority list is the reconstruction of Medary Ave. from 20th Street South to the
south end of the soccer complex in order accommodate development on the east side of
Prairie Hills Addition. The drainage portion of this phase requires moving the water from the
west side of Medary Ave. to the east and constructing a detention pond to compensate for this
additional flow. Due to extremely poor soil conditions, the street itself requires major
reconstruction, thus accounting for the majority of the project cost. This is actually a street
construction project, but since drainage is codependent, it was added to the drainage
prioritization list. It is important to understand the drainage priority list prioritizes projects as
they relate to drainage necessity, not street necessity. If street necessity outweighs the
drainage necessity, then the City Council may approve the project regardless of its drainage
ranking, as is the case with the 15th Street South and 7th Avenue drainage improvement

project. The drainage components of the street project may be paid for out of the drainage
budget in those cases.
The current project ranking list is attached. Jackie Lanning, City Engineer and Thad Drietz, Assistant
City Engineer will be available to facilitate the discussion regarding the updated ranking chart
development.
Fiscal Impact:
The City will budget the drainage projects according to the drainage priority list and in coordination
with related street projects.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval.

Discussion and Possible Action on an Agreement with Bel Brands USA.
Summary:
The City of Brookings and Bel Brands have reached a compromise concerning the Wastewater
Pretreatment Facility the City constructed to treat industrial wastewater from the Bel Brands cheese
processing facility. The Wastewater Pretreatment Facility is an essential component of cheese
processing, and was one of the most significant incentives necessary to convince Bel Brands to
locate its manufacturing facility in Brookings. While Bel Brands has been able to operate at full
capacity for the past year and a half, the Wastewater Pretreatment Facility has required additional
equipment to pre-treat its industrial wastewater. In particular, a large piece of equipment commonly
referred to as an Oxidizer was deemed necessary to properly treat the wastewater, and this
equipment is now in operation and has proven to be the solution to address Bel Brands’ current
industrial wastewater levels, as well as potential increases in wastewater volumes that may occur as
a result of increased cheese production.
The City of Brookings and Bel Brands have been in negotiations for a lengthy period concerning the
complex issue of a proper allocation of each party’s costs associated with the Pretreatment Facility
upgrades. Briefly, the City’s design and construction did not originally include an Oxidizer, however
both the City and Bel Brands have determined the actual operations and production levels have
made the oxidizer a necessity.
An Agreement with Bel Brands would provide that the Oxidizer is a necessary upgrade to the
Wastewater Pretreatment Facility, and the City will therefore reimburse Bel for the cost of the
Oxidizer. Bel Brands, in turn, agrees to assume ownership and responsibility for both the
Wastewater Pretreatment Facility and the Oxidizer once final construction punchlist items have been
completed.
The benefit of the Oxidizer will be to provide the City with desirable levels of long-term pretreatment
of the industrial wastewater and will further strengthen Bel’s ability to produce its cheese products for
many years to come.
