Resolution pertaining to the SDSU Northwest Quadrant Project
Whereas, the City of Brookings encourage the South Dakota Board of Regents, as they review
and oversee the activities of South Dakota colleges and universities, to work with the university
system to avoid unwarranted expansion into activities that compete with the private enterprise,
business commerce, and economic development efforts of South Dakota's communities; and
Whereas, the City of Brookings encourage the Board of Regents to be mindful of the potential
property tax revenue losses, so critical to support our K- 12 schools, as well as local
governance revenue needs, that these intrusions represent and to override any expansions into
these areas that have not had significant local review /input and do not finally carry broad local
and non - institutional support.
Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved that the City of Brookings opposes the SDSU Northwest
Quadrant Project due to the potential effects it would have on the Brookings Community.
Passed and approved this 5th day of April, 20I I.
