2013 Strate�ic Plan Year-End Report. City Manager Jeff Weldon presented the 2013 Strategic
Pian Year-End Report.
2013 STRATEGIC PLAN City of Brookings
Primarv Issues
1) Comprehensive Lon�-Ran�e Debt Financial Analvsis
Commentary: With the refinancing of the City's debt and the expected continued issuance of
State debt through the SRF program for the storm drainage master plan, as well as anticipated
CiP projects needing debt, an analysis should be undertaken for tong-range financial
implications beyond the five-year CIP. This anafysis needs to consider all existing debt service
obligations as well as City-issued debt on behalf of Srookings Municipal Utilities and Brookings
Health System. Such planning wiN be necessary to insure prioritize capital projects are
developed and long-range financial stability is preserved.
Action steps: TBD
Lead staff assignment: City Manager Jeff Weldon
Finance Manager Rita Thompson
Technical assistance: Finance Advisor pougherty&Associates (Toby Morris)
BMU/Swiftei CEO Steve Meyer
� 45
BHS Administrator Jason Merkley
STATUS: COMPLETED
COMMENTARY: Our financial advisor from Northland Securities,Toby Morris, conducted
the debt analysis and presented it to the City Council in October. The document will serve as a
debt management and �nancial planning tool for the City, BMU, and BHS for capital
improvement projects for the next several years.
2) Economic Development lnitiatives
Commentary: An on-going project, the economic development initiatives for 2013 are
expected focus on two primary areas; (1) retail development and (2) business recruitment in
the Research Park at South Dakota State University. A parallel economic development initiative
will continue to be the visitor industry through tourism and events. Other on-going economic
development initiatives wil( be business and industry recruitment and inquiry responses, the
saie of commercial/industrial land in the City's inventory for development, workforce
development, and other aspects of implementing the BEDC strategic plan.
Action steps: TBD
Lead stafF assignment: City Manager Jeff Weldon
Community Development Director Mike Struck
Technical assistance: BEDC Executive Director A( Heuton
Growth Partnership Executive Director Dwaine Chappel
CVB Executive Director Jennifer Johnson
STATUS: ON-GOING BY DESIGN
COMMENTARY: You have received monthly activity reports from BEDC pertaining to retai)
development in terms of contacts, interest from retail and commercial business leads, and new
businesses that have opened or expanded in Brookings. In addition,the Research Park at SDSU
has announced five new business locations in the Park this year including Elemech and Raven
Industries. We are working on a major expansion of an existing industrial company which
should be available for public information early in 2014. BEDC broke ground on the new
commercialization center building in the Telkamp Industrial Park and a prospect remains strong
for a local industry expansion in the Foster Industrial Park as well as another for next year on
the last remaining parcel in the Telkamp Industrial Park. In addition, we are in the early stages
of a major retail/commercial re-development project that begins its journey with the City
Council meeting on November 26 at the site of the former DOT maintenance shop.
3) Lean Government Services Pilot Proiect
Commentary: This initiative involves a strategic analysis of specific City services and analyzes
the process and procedures for implementing the services with the goal of making service
delivery more efficient and effective. Such analysis seeks to add value to City services through
continuous improvement and that they remain citizen-focused. Adoption of lean practices
involves the adoption of principles, practices, and methods that eliminate non-value-added
activities in the service delivery process to citizens.
Action steps: Identification of staff teams around specific lean project(s)
Provide specialized training to the team(s) about lean practices
Identification of one major, comprehensive pilot project
Identification of a minimum of two, minor, departmental pilot projects
Teams develop/implement lean initiatives for targeted pilot projects
Lead staff assignment: City Manager 1eff Weldon
City Clerk Shari Thornes
Finance Manager Rita Thompson
STATUS: 80�COMPLETED
COMMENTARY: A staff team was established early in the year and they divided
themselves into two study groups to focus on developing two Lean improvement projects.The
projects identified were (1) improve the hiring process, especially for seasonal employees; and
146
(2) improve the information input process for the payroll management system. Both
committees have submitted reports to me and implementation has begun. With regard to the
payrol! management system, while our software for calculating payroil is efficient and works
well for the end of the process, our system of inputting payroll information is archaic,time-
consuming, and inefficient. This initiative identified by the Lean team revolutionizes the payroll
information input process to make it technologically-based instead of manual, and it will
dramatically save time, improve reliability and transparency. This is part of the new payroll
management system budgeted for purchasing that will interface with our existing software
system that generates the payroll.The Finance and Numan Resources departments have been
working closely with the Lean teams on these two projects. Other lean projects initiated this
year was re-routing the solid waste collection process and instituting the use of purchase cards
to replace credit cards for an updated operational procurement process.
4) Citizen En�a�ement through on-line mobile applications
Commentary: This initiative would research and launch specific tools designed to increase
citizen engagement,transparency, and provide certain City services through the advent of
mobile applications. Such 'mobile apps'would be specifically tailored to identified City services
as well as facilitating two-way communication, and be a resource for general community
information for residents and visitors. The research would consider current City initiatives
including CivicPlus and the website, and select new apps to be developed consistent with stated
goals. Policies and procedures specifically adopted would be an amendment to the Technology
Plan.
Action steps: TBD
Lead stafF assignment: City Manager Jeff Weldon
City Clerk Shari Thornes
Finance Manager Rita Thompson
STATUS: 90%COMPLETED
COMMENTARY: The CivicPius software has been operational most of the year and serves
as our initiaf platform for receiving pubfic input and feedback about city issues. In addition,we
rolled-out the 'Mindmixer' application dubbed "Engage Brookings"with great fanfare as a
means of further improving transparency and getting public feedback about both open-ended
issues as well as serving as citizen surveys for services and issues whereby the City wants to
gauge public opinion. The next issue will be to determine the best methodology in which to
aggregate and utilize the data. Finally,the CVB is working on a comprehensive re-tooling of its
website to better optimize it for online and mobile applications. This will further build upon the
branding initiative of a few years ago. The purpose of this project is to generate further leads
for the community's businesses, services, and attractions; but also promote the overnight stays
for events. The target audience is visitors and meeting,convention, and event planners.
5) South Main Avenue Infrastructure Development Proiect
Commentary: Development of private property along South Main Avenue from 20th Street to
32"d Street represents the next major area for residential development with some supporting
commercial development. Development of this area is consistent with the comprehensive plan
and is one of the few, remaining large tract areas for residential development in the near
future. The only other opportunity for residential growth for the near-future is the continual
build-out of existing subdivisions with in-fill, and residential re-development. This road lacks
the necessary infrastructure to accommodate such development. Additional public amenities
are slated to further support this growing area such as a new elementary school and fire sub-
station. While total build-out will be decades away, interest currently exists for initial
development. This component of the strategic plan provides for developing a District
TransportationjUtility Development Plan for South Main Avenue for subsequent City Council
consideration. If adopted,this District Plan would be implemented with design in 2013 and
construction in 2014.
Action steps: Submit District Plan to City Council on Feb. 22
Council approval/rejection of District Plan
l47
Implementation of steps enumerated in the District Plan
Lead staff assignment: Community Development Director Mike Struck
City Engineer Jackie Lanning
STATUS: COMPLETED
COMMENTARY: This comprehensive District Transportation/Utility Development Plan was
completed by staff and presented to the City Council, and was subsequently adopted, in
February. With its adoption, design work began on the project immediately and culminated in
City Council approval of scope of work and preliminary financing plan in October. Design will
continue followed by construction in 2014.
6) Space Needs Analvsis for Street Department operations
Commentary: The buildings and facilities that comprise the Street Department maintenance
operation have been identified as needing further analysis for on-going structural repair and
future viability. Four buildings comprise the facility at 125 7th Avenue. Three of the four
structures should be examined in detail regarding present condition, anticipated
improvements, and future needs. The fueling facility is nearing the end of its expected life.The
location should also be examined for future viability of serving the community. A central
question would be to determine the extent and scope of future repairs and improvements
needed to the three structures compared to the financial and operational viability of
replacement. This initiative should consider a consolidated facility with the County Highway
Department.
Action steps: Staff identifies issues to be researched relative to the facility.
Research is initiated on the identified issues and report prepared.
Lead stafF assignment: Street Superintendent Koss Delfinis
Community Development Director Mike Struck
STATUS: COMPLETED
COMMENTARY: The space needs and locationaf analysis for a potential replacement for
the Street Department facility was conducted by staff and presented to the City Council in
August. The Council expressed support for replacement of the facility giving staff further
direction to expand the feasibility of site analysis. The analyzed locations in the report were
determined to be less-than-optimal. Work should continue into 2014 with regard to further
location analysis.
7) Lon�-Term Maintenance/Finance plan for Streets
Commentary: While the City currently has a multi-year schedule for maintenance of existing
streets,the schedule should be expanded beyond the current five years. Research should be
done pertaining to the viability of instituting a pavement management system that provides a
scientific"index" of the condition of streets for enhanced forecasting of scheduled
maintenance. The primary two methods of street maintenance are cracksealing/chipcoating
and mill/overlay. In extreme cases, streets need to be completely re-constructed.
Action steps: TBD
Lead staff assignment: City Engineer Jackie Lanning
Street Superintendent Koss Delfinis
STATUS: COMPLETED
COMMENTARY: Staff conducted cost-benefit analysis on the feasibility of instituting a
pavement management system into our street maintenance inventory system. (t was
determined not to be feasible. The City Council received a report from a local engineering�rm
analyzing concrete and asphalt alternatives to street surfacing under various applications. No
further action was deemed necessary.
Secondarv Issues
8) On-�oin�advocacv of 34t"Avenue/20th St. improvement proiect
14 �
Commentary: This transportation corridor remains a long-range improvement project deemed
essential for the further growth and development of Brookings. Since it involves an interstate
bridge crossing, federal funding will be necessary for a major portion of project financing. The
current financial viability is not conducive for this to be a short-range project. The City should
continue to incrementally build support for this project with state and federal policymakers
while strengthening local intergovernmental and stakeholder support sustainable over the long
term that will be required for this project.
STATUS: ON-GOING BY DESIGN
COMMENTARY: Brookings County approved a project for 2014 for the re-construction of
34th Avenue south of the city limits to the paved surface. During the budget process, we
adopted our 2014 CIP to provide for an improvement to the section of 34th Avenue that is north
of the city limits line. This will be one project with the city and county paying their respective
share of 34th Avenue. Brookings County will take the lead on this joint project. Upgrading a
township road (213th St.)from 34th Avenue into Aurora is also a key part of this county project.
Public advocacy continues for the 20th Street South extension to the east of 22"d Avenue with
an interstate overpass/interchange. Adjacent property owners have expressed more interest in
this project and have suggested an optional Iocation for a south interstate crossing which is
currently being explored. The project is no closerto being p{aced on the STIP but advocacy at
the state and federal level for transportation funding, specifically for the interstate crossing,
continues.
9) Plannin�/monitorin�involvement with SDDOT on Hi�hwav 14 up�rades
Commentary: The South Dakota Department of Transportation (SDDOT) will be undertaking
major reconstruction of Highway 14 from the 'diagonal'to Main Avenue; and planning for
improvements to 14B and future re-construction projects from Main Avenue to 34th Avenue in
future years. The�rst phase of construction and the planning of subsequent phases will be
done by SDDOT in 2013. As the single-most significant transportation corridor in Brookings,the
City needs to be an active participant with SDDOT in their planning process to insure the best
interests of the community are addressed as SDDOT undertakes this project.
STATUS: ON-GOING BY DESIGN
COMMENTARY: City staff continues to work with DOT planners and engineers on the two
major upgrades to Highway 14. The second phase involves 22"d Avenue east to 34th Avenue in
2016. The third phase involves Main Avenue to Medary Avenue in 2017. The City has thus far
been given ample opportunities to participate in the design considerations that have occurred
thus far, and expect to continue to do so through construction. Several design aspects with
regard to the eastern portion of the project will involve the final phase of our gateway project
which involves upgrades to DOT design components.
