sophomore at SDSU studying Political Science and History with a Legal Studies minor and a Pre-
Law track. I am currently on track to graduate in December of 2027. I hope to attend law school
back in Wisconsin after I graduate to practice estate, LLC, and land law as an attorney. Though not
originally from South Dakota, I was able to serve as an intern for the South Dakota Legislature for
their 100th session. I served under Representative Bethany Soye in the House of Representatives. I
enjoyed my time there thoroughly and hope to return in some capacity throughout my undergraduate
career. At SDSU, I am involved in the Political Science Club, Pre-Law Society, the Newman Centr,
Honors College, and currently serve as the Treasurer of College Republicans.
The Students' Association is comprised of all General Activity Fee-paying students at South Dakota
State University. The Students' Association Senate is the official student government organization at
SDSU, consisting of 26 senators representing each of the academic colleges and the student body
president and vice president.
The Students' Association Senate serves as a representative body to bring the voice of SDSU
students to university administration, faculty, staff, state legislators and the South Dakota Board of
Regents of Higher Education. The Students' Association also allocates student fee funds to support
various campus entities, facilities and many student organizations.

City Council Agenda Item Memo
From: Casey Bell, Director of Human Resources
Council Meeting: October 28, 2025
Subject: 2025 – 2027 Police Union Agreement
Presenter: Casey Bell, Director of Human Resources
Summary and Recommended Action:
Staff recommends approval of this updated three (3) year Union Agreement, to include
2026 salaries and overtime thresholds for Patrol Officers, with the Police Employees
represented by the Teamsters Local Union No. 120.
Item Details:
City Management meets annually with Union leadership to meet and confer and
negotiate union agreements. The Police Employees are covered under a union
agreement which expires December 31, 2027. Teamsters Local Union No. 120
represents Police Employees under this contract. The duration of the union agreement
is three (3) years. Due to the fluctuation of sales tax and the local economy, the City
has opted for salaries as an annual opener to ensure expenses of increase pay do not
outpace revenues. This three (3) year agreement adjusts 2026 salaries and overtime
thresholds for Patrol Officers.
Legal Consideration:
None
Strategic Plan Consideration:
Fiscal Responsibility – The City of Brookings will responsibly manage resources
through transparency, efficiency, equity, and exceptional customer service.
Safe, Inclusive, Connected Community – The City of Brookings will create an
environment for inclusive programs, gathering places, and events where the
community can safely live, work and come together to participate in opportu nities
for learning, recreation and enjoyment.
Service and Innovation Excellence – The City of Brookings will provide an
accessible environment committed to ongoing innovation and outstanding service
through listening and engagement.
Sustainability – The City of Brookings will meet environmental, community and
economic desires and needs without compromising future generations’ quality of
life by strategically planning, implementing and maintaining infrastructure and
facilities.
Financial Consideration:
The negotiated personnel expenses are accounted for within the proposed 202 6
budget.

This minimum shall not apply to work performed within two hours prior to or two

13. COMMITTEE FOR UNION - MANAGEMENT CO-OPERATION
13A. The parties recognize that during the period in which this agreement is in effect,
problems of administration of this Agreement may arise which are not
anticipated by either part. They also recognize that during such period more
mutually constructive and productive relationships are likely to exist between
6
the City and the Union and among both management and non-management
employees, if both the City and the Union continue to enlarge their respective
efforts to gain a better appreciation and understanding of the others problems
and objectives. They recognize that frequently what first appears to be
problems or areas of conflict and disagreements, are actually the result of
misunderstanding which are cleared away upon a complete and frank exchange
of viewpoints and ideas. They believe that even though limitations are being
placed upon formal collective bargaining negotiations through the extended
period of this Agreement, a better atmosphere in which they both desire, can be
created through meetings of the kind described below:
13B. Once each month or as needed, meetings may be held during the term of this
Agreement of the committee formed as part of this Article. It is understood that
such meetings will be held for the purpose of appraising and discussing th e
problems, if any, which arise concerning administration, interpretation or
application of the Agreement or other matters which either party believes will
contribute to the improvement in the relations between them within the
framework of this Agreement. It is understood that such meetings shall not be
for the purpose of handling grievances or conducting collective bargaining
negotiations nor for any purpose which in any way will modify, add to, or detract
from the provisions of this Agreement. In agreeing to such meetings, the parties
are providing concrete evidence of their sincere desire to encourage friendly,
cooperative relationships between their respective representatives at all levels,
and with and between all employees covered by this Agreement and to find
ways to overcome difficulties, influences, or attitudes which interfere with such
relationships.
13C. This committee shall also consider handling problems concerning the safety of
working conditions. Each of the parties recognize the importance of protecting
the health, life, and a limb of employees and the City will make every reasonable
effort to improve conditions that promote health and safety among City
Employees. This committee may make recommendations respecting conditions
which in its opinion would make working conditions more safe.
13D. The committee shall be composed of two (2) members designated by the Union
and two (2) members designated by the City Manager or designee. Any
recommendations must be adopted by a majority of the committee.
14. PERSONNEL POLICIES
14A. SENIORITY
14A.1 Seniority shall be defined as the total length of continuous service with
the Employer, since the employee’s last date of hire in the Police
Department bargaining unit.
7
14A.2 New employees will be considered probationary employees for twelve
(12) months from the date of employment. Should a probationary
employee be absent from the job for an approved leave without pay, the
probationary period will be extended to enable employees to complete
their full probationary period.
14A.3 During the probationary period, employees shall have no seniority
status, and may be laid off or terminated at the sole discretion of the
City without regard to length of service. When an employee completes
their probationary period, their seniority date shall revert back to their
original date of hire.

b) All non-sworn personnel;
14A.5 Employees hired from non-sworn to the sworn classification or vice
versa, shall maintain their seniority for the amounts of vacation but
shall go to the bottom of the list in the new classification for all other
purposes. Part-time employees obtaining full-time positions shall be
considered as a new hire for all purposes.
14A.6 Seniority and employment relationship shall terminate when an
employee:
a) ; Resigns;
b) Is discharged for just cause;
c) Retires
14A.7 All scheduled or otherwise anticipated overtime shall be offered by
seniority to qualified available personnel unless such overtime requires
a special skill or is in accordance with the employee completing an
assigned regular shift. Management reserves the right to offer or
immediately assign overtime resulting from unexpected, unforeseen,
or emergent circumstances without consideration of seniority. It is
understood that all overtime must be authorized by the Chief of Police,
or designee.
14A.8 Vacation will be granted on a first come – first serve basis. In the event
vacation is requested at the same time by more than one employee for
the same time period, seniority provisions shall prevail.

contribute to the improvement in the relations between them within the
framework of this Agreement. It is understood that such meetings shall not be
for the purpose of handling grievances or conducting collective bargaining
negotiations nor for any purpose which in any way will modify, add to, or detract

vaping with a designated smoking area being provided outside the southwest
door of the department.
22D. SRT team members will be paid an additional $2.00 per hour of Hazard Pay
when called out. SRT training hours are not included.
22E. The canine officer assigned to canine duty for the City of Brookings Police
Department shall be compensated as follows:
The following activities may be FLSA compensable time when performed during
the canine handler’s “off-the-clock” hours: feeding, exercising, training,
grooming, cleaning up after canine, and /or transporting the canine to and from
an animal hospital or veterinarian. The canine handler’s normal workday would
consist of 11 1/2, 9 1/2, or 7 ½ hours of normal duties depending on scheduled
shift and ½ hour per day of FLSA compensable time to leave their shift early,
with the consent of the Chief, for care/handling of the canine. The ½ hour of
FLSA compensable time to leave early for care and handling of canine will be
factored into each work day, but if call load prohibits the canine handler from
leaving early, the handler will accumulate ½ hour of FLSA compensable time that
day to care for canine to be paid at OT or ½ hour accrued as comp time at the
discretion of the handler. One-half (1/2) hour of FLSA compensable time for care
and handling of canine will also be accumulated on regular days off and days
utilizing benefit time if canine duties are performed by canine handler. The City
12
and Union make the agreement in light of their consultations with the canine
handler, and with specific reference to actual hours worked performing such
duties. The City, the Union and the handler agree that the weekly total of
compensated hours set forth above is reasonable and reflects the actual hours
spent in canine care, as described above, with respect to all the pertinent facts
related to care provided by the officer for the department’s canine, in the City of
Brookings.
The City agrees to pay for the boarding facility for one week annually while the
canine officer is on vacation. The canine officer, however, shall not receive the
above canine compensation for their paid vacation hours for that week.
When the Narcotics Canine is no longer capable of performing acceptable
standards due to any of the aforementioned reasons, it shall be retired from
service. Because the canine may have been purchased with funds other than
those provided by Brookings Police Department, certain guidelines or
stipulations will be made to turn the canine over to the handler, if they desire, or
other prospective owner, if the prospective owner signs a release form accepting
all responsibilities for said canine. The canine’s ownership may be transferred to
the canine’s handler by the handler paying a fee of one dollar for the canine.
Once the patrol officer is no longer designated as the canine handler for the City
of Brookings Police Department, the canine compensation will end.

their performance or attendance during the probationary period, the
employee may be terminated. The “Six (6) Month Probationary Review”
form shall be completed two weeks before the probationary period ends
in order to document the reason(s) for termination.
Managers will utilize the Probationary Employee Progress Report to
review each new employee’s performance and progress. The employee’s
work performance, attitude, attendance, ability to follow instructions,
and other factors which cause him/her to be successful on the job must
be carefully reviewed before the employee is classified as a regular full-
time employee. A probationary employee’s performance can be
reviewed as often as necessary during the probationary period. The City
Manager reserves the right to extend the probationary period of an
employee up to a maximum of six (6) additional months.
19C. Acting - When a vacancy occurs in a position which cannot be left vacant for the
length of time anticipated, when no suitable list of approved candidates exists
for its filling, or for some other reason it is not feasible to make a permanent
10
appointment thereto, the Department Head or Designee may appoint an
employee to an “acting” capacity. The duration of such acting appointment shall
be only until a permanent appointment can reason ably be made. The employee
shall receive the wages of the vacant position.

determine what positions should be eliminated, and will notify the affected

two (2) weeks following the notice of layoff.
21. PROMOTIONS OR TRANSFERS
21A. An employee may request a transfer from a position or Department to another
position or Department within the bargaining unit. Such a request need not be
in the nature of a promotion. Requests for transfer must first be made to an
employee’s immediate supervisor and to the Department Head or Designee.
21B. A performance appraisal will be conducted prior to the end of 10 days in the
new position. During the ten (10) day trial period, the employee shall have the
opportunity to revert to their previous position. If the employee is
unsatisfactory in the new position (in the opinion of the Employer), notice and
reasons will be submitted to him in writing by the Employer with a copy to the
Union. The matter may then become a proper subject for the grievance
procedure.
Benefits/seniority accumulated by the person transferring shall be retained by
that individual.
21C. Inter-departmental transfers of employees for a short duration for City
convenience may be made at any time at the discretion of the City Manager,
providing the employee is informed of the need and expected duration of the
transfer and it does not affect pay.

disaster, such as an ice storm, tornado or any other emergency.
21E. Whenever possible, new and vacant positions will be filled from within the City
by promoting qualified employees in accordance with the following:
21E.1 Promotions/transfers shall be made on the basis of seniority, skills,
ability, qualifications, and job performance. If skills, ability,
qualifications, and job performance, are relatively equal, then seniority

shall be the determining factor.

Manager.

be appealed under the grievance procedure.
22. INTERIM PAYRATE CHANGES
During the term of the contract, any proposed changes within the bargaining unit that
substantially affect an employee’s duties and responsibilities shall be submitted to the
Union. The City and the Union shall determine if the additional duties and
responsibilities warrant a pay rate change, and if so, establish the appropriate rate for
the position.

weeks or longer shall receive the higher rate of pay for all time served in said higher pay

performance. The City recognizes alcohol/drug abuse and addiction and other
medical behavioral problems as treatable illnesses. The City also recognizes that
other mental conditions can be successfully treated
29B. Confidentiality is one of the most important aspects of the program. If the
employee contacts the EAP directly, no one in the Company will know about it,
unless the employee tells them. Participation in the Employee Assistance
Program will not jeopardize the employee’s job security nor will it affect future
promotional opportunities. If an employee’s supervisor refers them, the EAP
counselor will let the supervisor know if the employee has kept the
appointment, and whether they have agreed to accept the help that was
offered. No information concerning the nature of the problem will be released
without the employee’s written consent. With this policy, any employee who
suspects that they have an alcohol, mental health or drug problem, even in its
early stages, is encouraged to seek diagnosis and follow through with the
prescribed treatment as necessary.
29C. There is no charge for the initial assessment. The City will incur such expenses
for treatment and/or hospitalization as provided under the group health
insurance program. However, if costs are incurred for rehabilitation services

responsibility of the employee.

30B. Employees who are not identified as being essential to carry on operations shall
have the option of “working or not working”.
30C. Employees who choose not to work or are unable to work their regular
scheduled shift due to inclement weather will have to utilize vacation leave,
comp time or leave of absence without pay (if eligible).
30D. Due to work load or such other conditions as may warrant, the City Manager,
Department Heads, or Designees may identify additional employees who were
not initially identified as an essential employee. Department Heads or
Designees may use discretion in calling in additional employees and such

States or the State of South Dakota, such provisions shall be superseded by the appropriate
provisions of such regulation; so long as the same is in force and effect, but all other provisions
of the Agreement shall continue in force and effect.
3. MAINTENANCE OF STANDARDS
3A. The Employer agrees, subject to the following provisions, that all conditions of
employment in the employer’s operation relating to wages, hours of work, overtime

highest standards in effect at the time of the signing of this Agreement, and the
conditions of employment shall be improved whenever specific provisions for
improvement are made elsewhere in this Agreement.

errors made by the Employer or the Union in applying the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. Such bona fide errors may be corrected at any time.

or working conditions less than those contained in this Agreement.
4. MANAGEMENT RIGHTS
The Union recognizes the prerogatives of the City Council and City Manager or designee
to operate and manage its affairs in all respects in accordance with its responsibility
and powers of authority which the City has not officially abridged, delegated or
2
modified by this Agreement, and such powers and authority are retained by the City.
These management rights include, but are not limited to the following:
4A. To utilize personnel, methods and means in the most appropriate and efficient

the City; to discipline/suspend, discharge or take other appropriate action

5A. The parties recognize that during the period in which this agreement is in effect,
problems of administration of this Agreement may arise which are not
anticipated by either party. They also recognize that during such period more
mutually constructive and productive relationships are likely to exist between
the City and the Union and among both management and non-management
employees, if both the City and the Union continue to enlarge their respective
efforts to gain a better appreciation and understanding of each other’s
problems and objectives. They recognize that frequently what first appears to
be problems or areas of conflict and disagreements, are actually the result of
misunderstanding which are cleared away upon a complete and frank exchange
of viewpoints and ideas. They believe that even though limitations are being
placed upon formal collective bargaining negotiations through extended period
of this Agreement, a better atmosphere in which they both desire, can be
created through meetings of the kind described below.

5B. Once each month or as needed, meetings may be held during the term of this
Agreement of the committee formed as part of this Article. It is understood that
such meetings will be held for the purpose of appraising and discussing the
problems, if any, which arise concerning administration, interpretation or
application of the Agreement or other matters which either party believes will
contribute to the improvement in the relations between them, within the
framework of this Agreement. It is understood that such meetings shall not be
for the purpose of handling grievances or conducting collective bargaining
negotiations nor for any purpose which in any way will modify, add to, or
detract from the provisions of this Agreement. In agreeing to such meetings,
the parties are providing concrete evidence of their sincere desire to encourage
friendly, cooperative relationships between their respective representatives at
all levels, and with and between all employees covered by this Agreement and
to find ways to overcome difficulties, influences, or attitudes which interfere
with such relationships.
5C. This committee shall also consider handling problems concerning the safety of
working conditions. Each of the parties recognize the importance of protecting
the health, life and limb of employees and the City will make every reasonable
effort to improve conditions that promote health and safety among City
employees. This committee may make recommendations respecting conditions
which in its opinion would make working conditions more safe.

remitted by the Employer to the Local Union at a time mutually agreed between the
City and the Union.

responsibilities toward the general public.

19. EMPLOYEE CLASSIFICATION
19A. Regular Full-time Employees - Employees who work a minimum of forty
(40) hours per normal work week and are not designated as probationary or
temporary shall be defined as “regular full-time”. This classification will entitle
employees to all rights and benefits on a pro-rated basis. Time served on a
probationary status shall be considered as regular full-time, when the employee
is so classified.
19B. Probationary Employee - Probationary employees are newly hired employees
and shall be considered on a “probationary” status for a period of six (6) months
following their initial date of employment. Upon completion of not more than
six (6) months of satisfactory performance, such employees shall be classified as
regular full-time. A probationary employee shall be subject to layoff, discipline,
or discharge at the sole discretion of the City. After an employee has
satisfactorily completed the probationary period, seniority will be established as
of their employment date.
19B.1 The probationary period is established for the purpose of evaluating the
performance of and manner in which each new employee adjusts to their
work. If an employee is granted leave during their probationary period
and said leave exceeds one week, then the employee’s probationary
period shall be extended by an amount at least equal to the term of their
leave. If, for any reason, the employee is found to be unsatisfactory in
their performance or attendance during the probationary period, the
employee may be terminated. The “Six (6) Month Probationary Review”
form shall be completed two weeks before the probationary period ends
in order to document the reason(s) for termination.
Managers will utilize the Probationary Employee Progress Report to
review each new employee’s performance and progress. The employee’s
work performance, attitude, attendance, ability to follow instructions,
and other factors which cause him/her to be successful on the job must
be carefully reviewed before the employee is classified as a regular full-
time employee. A probationary employee’s performance can be
reviewed as often as necessary during the probationary period. The City
Manager reserves the right to extend the probationary period of an
employee up to a maximum of six (6) additional months.
19C. Acting - When a vacancy occurs in a position which cannot be left vacant for the
length of time anticipated, when no suitable list of approved candidates exists
for its filling, or for some other reason it is not feasible to make a permanent
10
appointment thereto, the Department Head or Designee may appoint an
employee to an “acting” capacity. The duration of such acting appointment shall
be only until a permanent appointment can reasonably be made. The employee
shall receive the wages of the vacant position.
20. SEPARATIONS
20A. Layoffs - In the event a cutback becomes necessary, City Manager will first
determine what positions should be eliminated, and will notify the affected
employees/union in writing.
20A.1 A regular full-time employee who is laid off through a reduction in force,
shall receive two (2) weeks’ notice of separation or shall be paid for the
two (2) weeks following the notice of layoff.
21. PROMOTIONS OR TRANSFERS
21A. An employee may request a transfer from a position or Department to another
position or Department within the bargaining unit. Such a request need not be
in the nature of a promotion. Requests for transfer must first be made to an
employee’s immediate supervisor and to the Department Head or Designee.
21B. A performance appraisal will be conducted prior to the end of 10 days in the
new position. During the ten (10) day trial period, the employee shall have the
opportunity to revert to their previous position. If the employee is
unsatisfactory in the new position (in the opinion of the Employer), notice and
reasons will be submitted to him in writing by the Employer with a copy to the
Union. The matter may then become a proper subject for the grievance
procedure.
Benefits/seniority accumulated by the person transferring shall be retained by
that individual.
21C. Inter-departmental transfers of employees for a short duration for City
convenience may be made at any time at the discretion of the City Manager,
providing the employee is informed of the need and expected duration of the
transfer and it does not affect pay.
21D. Inter-departmental transfers of employees shall be made in the event of a
disaster, such as an ice storm, tornado or any other emergency.
21E. Whenever possible, new and vacant positions will be filled from within the City
by promoting qualified employees in accordance with the following:
21E.1 Promotions/transfers shall be made on the basis of seniority, skills,
ability, qualifications, and job performance. If skills, ability,
qualifications, and job performance, are relatively equal, then seniority
11
shall be the determining factor.
21E.2 In accordance with this article, promotions must be approved by the City
Manager.
21F. All regular full-time job vacancies shall be posted on the City of Brookings
website and departmental bulletin boards. Any employee denied a promotion
under this Article shall be given the reasons for such denial in writing and may
be appealed under the grievance procedure.
22. INTERIM PAYRATE CHANGES
During the term of the contract, any proposed changes within the bargaining unit that
substantially affect an employee’s duties and responsibilities shall be submitted to the
Union. The City and the Union shall determine if the additional duties and
responsibilities warrant a pay rate change, and if so, establish the appropriate rate for
the position.
23. OUT OF CLASS PAY
An employee that works in a higher pay classification for a period of two (2) consecutive
weeks or longer shall receive the higher rate of pay for all time served in said higher pay

appointment, and whether they have agreed to accept the help that was
offered. No information concerning the nature of the problem will be released
without the employee’s written consent. With this policy, any employee who
suspects that they have an alcohol, mental health or drug problem, even in its
early stages, is encouraged to seek diagnosis and follow through with the
prescribed treatment as necessary.

APPENDIX A OFFICIAL
GENERAL CONTRACT FOR 2025 - 2027
Explanation of Schedule

City Council Agenda Item Memo
From: Ashley Rentsch, Finance Director
Council Meeting: October 28,2025 / November 18, 2025
Subject: Ordinance 25-034: 2026 Appropriation Ordinance
Presenter: Ashley Rentsch, Finance Director
Summary and Recommended Action:
Staff recommends approval of the 2026 Appropriation Ordinance. The City of Brookings
adopts a budget on an annual basis. A series of budget workshops were held in
September to ensure a transparent and engaging budget process. Staff presents a
balanced and sustainable proposed budget of $72,527,765, which is a decrease of 1%
or $642,014 from the 2025 adopted budget
Item Details:
The City of Brookings adopts a budget on an annual basis to set the strategic direction
for the upcoming year. At the completion of the eight (8) month development and
adoption process, the budget serves as a policy tool, operations guide, financial plan,
and communications device.
To ensure a transparent and engaging budget process, the City held a series of
workshops. Budget Workshop #1 was held on September 9 and focused on a budget
overview, operating budgets, and outside agencies. The second budget workshop on
September 23 discussed the 10-year Capital Improvement Plan and the Consolidated
Fee Schedule.
The first reading of the budget ordinance is scheduled for October 28. The second
reading of the budget ordinance and adoption of the 10-year Capital Improvement Plan
and the Consolidated Fee Schedule will be November 18. The November 25 Council
Meeting date has been identified as a contingency date if a third reading of the budget
ordinance is necessary.
Staff has broken down the budget into four (4) primary components for the City Council:
General Fund, Special Revenue/Debt Service Funds, Enterprise Funds, and Capital
Improvement Plan. The General Fund encompasses the primary City operations such
as public safety, public works functions, and parks, recreation, and forestry, which
contribute to Brookings high quality of life, strong neighborhoods, and safe and
welcoming community. The 10-year Capital Improvement Plan shows one-time
purchases, generally over $25,000, over the upcoming 10-year window. Special
revenue funds must be used for specific purposes, which are legally restricted or
committed. Enterprise fuds are meant to operate in a business manner, focusing on
cost recovery.
The 2025 budget includes a proposed balanced General Fund of $22,948,083. The
budget is considered balanced as revenues are equal to expenditures. Public safety,
public works, and parks, recreation, and forestry account for approximately 73% of the
General Fund. Sales Tax, Property Tax, and transfers account for appr oximately 81% of
General Fund revenue.
Special Revenue/Debt Service funds total $14.1 million. Just under half of this total is
attributed to the Dacotah Bank Center, and the E -911 Fund accounts for 10% of the
total. The primary increases in this category for 2025 are due to new TIF revenues and
capital projects in the Storm Drainage Fund.
Enterprise funds total $22.1 million for 2026. It is important to note that all liquor pass-
through revenues and expenses (approximately $8.3 million) flow through the Liquor
Fund. Solid Waste Collections and Disposal funds will utilize contributed capital in 2026
to support initiatives outlined in the Solid Waste Master Plan.
The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) maintains/replaces existing facilities, vehicles, and
equipment. The 2026 CIP expenditures are proposed to be $13.4 million. Debt service,
street/airport, and parks/recreation account for approximately 60% of total CIP
expenditures. 2nd Penny Sales Tax provides 75% of CIP revenue.
Major CIP projects planned for 2026 include various vehicle and equipment
replacements in addition to annual street maintenance at $4.5 million; 5th Street Gym
improvements for $450k, and the replacement of Fire Engine 3 at $700k.
Legal Consideration:
The budget process is dictated by code, policy, and state law.
Strategic Plan Consideration:
The 2026 Appropriation Ordinance encompasses all five (5) areas of the City Council
Strategic Plan:
Fiscal Responsibility – The City of Brookings will responsibly manage resources
through transparency, efficiency, equity, and exceptional customer service.

through listening and engagement.
Sustainability – The City of Brookings will meet environmental, community and

life by strategically planning, implementing and maintaining infrastructure and
facilities.

City Council Agenda Item Memo
From: Bailey Maca, Associate Planner
City Council Meeting(s): October 28, 2025 / November 18, 2025
Subject: Ordinance 25-035: Conditional Use Permit – Office – 717 &
719 Main Avenue
Presenter: Mike Struck, Community Development Director
Summary and Recommended Action:
Bo McCloud has applied for a Conditional Use Permit to operate an office in the
Residential R-2 district. The Development Review Team recommends approval with
the following conditions:
The Conditional Use Permit is nontransferable.
The Planning Commission voted 8-0 to recommend approval with the noted conditions.
Item Details:
The applicant recently purchased the buildings located at 717 and 719 Main Avenue

conditions must be met:
The uses must be located on a collector or arterial street.
The architecture shall compatible with surrounding residential properties.
Consideration shall be given to the traffic generated by such use, the type of
sign, the hours of operation and the character of the use.
Parking shall be screened from any adjacent residential area.
The 717 and 719 Main Avenue locations were previously used as a dental office;
however, the use has been discontinued for more than a year. As the site has not had
an active office use in over a year, the applica nt is required to obtain a Conditional Use
Permit to reestablish the use.
The property is located along a collector street and includes sufficient parking for the
office use with access to Main Avenue and rear alleyway. Parking will be screened by a
6-foot-tall fence on the north and south side. The architecture will not change and is
generally compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. The uses will generally
maintain office hours and traffic generation will likely be minimal.
Legal Consideration:
None.

Item #6b – Bo McCloud has applied for a Conditional Use Permit to operate an office in the
Residential R-2 district. Staff recommends approval conditional on the permit being non-transferrable.
(Hinrichs/Aiken) Motion to approve the Conditional Use Permit. All present voted aye. MOTION
CARRIED.
OFFICIAL SUMMARY
Item #6b – The applicant recently purchased the buildings located at 717 and 719 Main Avenue and
intends to provide office spaces for small businesses including their rental business. The property is
located in the Residential R-2 district, where office use is permitted subject to the approval of a
Conditional Use Permit. The property was previously used as a dental office; however, the use has
been discontinued for more than a year. As the site has not had an active office use in over a year, the
applicant is required to obtain a Conditional Use Permit to reestablish the use.
McCloud, applicant, was available for questions. Aiken asked if the six-foot fence was existing.
McCloud stated that it would be new. Hinrichs inquired about the future use. McCloud explained that
it would be used for his real estate and property management business. Tornquist asked if there was a
plan for signage and if the property be also used as apartments with the office if the request was
approved. She went on to ask about the property next door being rumored to become an office and
wanted to know if R-2 would transition to allow offices. Miller stated that the site plan did not indicate
signage however there are sign allowances in residential zoning districts. He also explained that an
apartment is a separate use in R-2 that would require a separate Conditional Use Permit. McCloud did
not have any current plans for signage but stated that they would adhere to the existing allowances if
one was sought in the future. Miller detailed that a freestanding could be up to 8 square feet, 5 feet in
height and wall sign could be up to 16 square feet. Miller also explained that the item on the agenda
was this Conditional Use Permit and if Planning Commission wanted to review other permits or zoning
ordinances further, it would need to be added to a future agenda. Limmer asked if the Conditional Use
would be allowed had the operation not ceased use. Ryan stated that if it had not ceased, then yes it
would still be allowed and explained that the new request is not transferrable. Tornquist appreciated
the explanations provided. Aiken asked if residential and commercial uses would be allowed on the
site if the Conditional Use Permit was approved. Miller stated that mixed use is not allowable in an R-
2 zoning district.

OFFICIAL SUMMARY
Item #6b – The preliminary plat includes seven lots covering roughly fifty-four acres southeast of the

Bucher was available for inquiries. Schmeichel asked how wide the street and cul-de-sac are. Bucher
stated the plans were the same as Century Circle on 32nd Avenue. Hinrichs inquired about access
drives to Lot 1. Bucher stated that access to Lot 1 restricted from the highway by DOT so access would
be to the west from 32nd Avenue. Aiken asked about the final drainage plan requiring annexation and if
it was typical. Miller stated that they have received the annexation petition and it will be on the
October Planning Commission Agenda. Hinrichs asked if the detention pond overlays with the
floodplain. Miller stated that would be a question to ask while hearing the annexation and Engineering
has stated that they are comfortable with the plan, providing the property become annexed.
