  • South Dakota 2015 Gas Tax Increase (SB 1)
    South Dakota Senate Bill 1 (2015) Title of Bill: Senate Bill 1 Purpose: Revise certain taxes and fees to: fund improvements to public roads and bridges in South Dakota, to increase the maximum speed limit on interstate highways, and to declare an emergency. i Status of Amendment: Passed South Dakota Senate Bill 1 (2015) Signed into law: March 30, 2015 Senate House FOR 25 55 AGAINST 8 11 History State Gas Tax The state gas tax on gasoline and diesel for highway use has not been increase since 1999, when Bill Janklow (R) was governor. Subsequent governors Mike Rounds and Dennis Daugaard were both vocally opposed to highway-tax increases, until Dauggard changed his position in the beginning of 2015. ii Gas Tax Distribution & Transportation Funding Sources Most of the funds generated by SB 1 will go towards state work, but some will go into a local bridge fund managed by the state Transportation Commission. The gas tax increase will produce an estimated $40.5 million and the excise tax an additional $27 million to $30 million. Additionally the license plate increases are expected to generate $18 million for counties, their share depending on the number of vehicles registered there. ii Need South Dakota, like many states, is struggling to maintain funding for their transportation system. Roads-Currently, South Dakota’s state roads are considered to be in good conditions, with only 2 percent rated “poor” and 9 percent rated “fair.” By 2024 though, the state Department of Transportation predicts that 25 percent of roads will be “poor” and 27 percent “fair.” For local governments the current situation is more urgent.

    Number 10 • Volume 111 March 10, 2016 Newspaper Hall of Fame to honor four South Dakotans Region 7B Champs Four South Dakotans with distinguished newspaper careers will be inducted into the South Dakota Newspaper Hall of Fame in April. They are: Jim Moritz of the Faulk County Record, Kathy Nelson of the Timber Lake Topic, Timothy Waltner of the Freeman Courier, and the late Kenneth B. Way of the Watertown Public Opinion. The four newspaper people will be honored during the South Dakota Newspaper Association annual convention April 29 in Mitchell. Plaques honoring members of the Newspaper Hall of Fame are dis - played at the Anson & Ada May Yeager Hall at South Dakota State Uni - versity.

"These four indi - viduals have made a positive difference not only in newspapers, but also in their communities and in our state." Way was publisher of the family-owned Watertown Public Opinion from 1942 until 1985. He was instrumental in the development and growth of Watertown. He was a key supporter of the Watertown Com - munity Foundation. Way was inducted into the South Dakota Hall of Fame in 1999. He died in 2006 at the age of 99.

  • No Extra School Taxes for New K-12 School Building Project Gittings and Peterson Retire Philip Council Notified of Police Chief
    $ 00 Inclu1des Tax No. 24, Vol. 110 Philip, South Dakota 57567 Thursday, February 4, 2016 www. pioneer-review.com No extra school taxes for new K-12 school building project by Del Bartels Two financial and architectural experts relayed information and op - tions to the Haakon School District Board of Education during a special meeting, Tuesday, Jan. 26, about a new kindergarten through 12th grade school building to be started the summer of 2017 and ready for classes in fall 2018. The main crux of the discussion was that a new K-12 school building was possible without any raising of current property taxes. The official resolution by the board for the new school building will be voted on during the board’s Monday, Feb. 8 meeting. If that vote and other legalities go according to plan, then community meetings will be held as soon as possible. If anyone opposes the board’s decision, that person has a legal number of days to get signatures on a petition bring - ing the project to a vote by registered voters in the school district. Any election procedure would be held as soon as possible. Bid letting for the construction project should be held soon so construction companies can plan to start the summer of 2017 as soon as warmer weather allows. Plans are for the project to be classroom ready by the fall of 2018. Pay - ment of the project would be over future years, with monies coming out of what the district has in reserves and what is already on the tax books Del Bartels to come in to the school district during those future years.
