This was the time set upon application for the

City Attorney Keith Smit requested that the council deny
the request of Mark Peacock – 1400 block of
Ray Murray appeared before the council with the
request to install informational signs for his campground, Big Rig RV
Park. It would be a blue directional
sign with a camper on it and would not advertise his campground specifically.
The council felt that this could create additional
problems with other campgrounds requesting the same courtesy. Motion by Green, second by Anders &
carried unanimously to deny
Motion by Green, second by Jacobson & carried,
with Call abstaining, to set a public hearing date of June 5, 2006 for a zoning

side-yard setback.
This was the time set upon application for the

hearing for the transfer of the retail (on-sale) liquor license of Perkovich

Lots Mobil 1, 2 & 3 of Glover’s 2nd, Lots 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 & 7
of Block F Glover’s 2nd).
Guy Edwards advised that he was just trying to
utilize a piece of property that he owns.
He is adding on to the existing structure to allow sufficient size for
food and beer sales.
Mayor Zeigler advised that the only license
available was for a restaurant malt beverage which requires a year-round
restaurant business with a full-service kitchen.

for 70 and that the ordinance did not allow for outdoor seating.
Edwards advised that he had planned on outdoor
seating for this premise.
Mayor Zeigler advised that he could not have a beer
garden per se but that it would be eligible for outdoor dining.
Green questioned if Edwards had any design plans
available. Edwards advised that this was
not part of the application process.
Building Inspector Scott Rovere advised that he did
have plans for the rear addition, which was received during the building permit
application process. He also received
other plans for the original building.
Smit requested that Edwards withdraw his request at
this time so that he is able to determine for sure if he will meet or exceed
the requirements for this type of license.
Smit also gave Edwards a copy of the ordinance pertaining to this type
of license.

application and come back in two weeks to reapply.

OTHER MATTERS
THAT
Roger Schieman questioned what was going on across
the creek regarding the new campground.
He advised that when he built his house he had to have someone make sure
everything was in line prior to dirt being moved. He further stated that just because there is
a lot of money coming in with this project, the contractor still needs to
follow the City’s rules.
Public Works Director Randy Nohava advised that he
is there almost daily and that he is following through on the sewer and water
inspections. Nohava further advised that
he had visited with SD DENR and as long as no storm water runoff is leaving this
campground, a silt fence is not needed.
Nohava also stated that the owner is going through the application
process with SD DENR for storm water run-off.
Doug Clark, the owner of the new campground, advised
that he had contracted with Rockingtree for grass & flowers to be
planted. He is not planning on using
guard rails on the road leading up to the top platform but would be putting big
rocks up to outline the roads and where the campers would park. He has spoken with SD DENR and they said that
he basically needed to plant grass to capture any run-off that there may be. He is in the application process and will
have an engineer draw up a plan for storm water run-off.
