Development District III, “District III” is engaged in a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) process as one means of strengthening regional economic development conditions. The CEDS will address the needs of District III’s membership, while meeting the standards established by the Economic Development Administration (EDA). Per EDA requirements, a CEDS should have several attributes, such as: Inclusion; Flexibility; Intentionality; and Definable outcomes. These qualities will be emphasized throughout District III’s strategy formation activities. Although EDA’s directions will help guide the CEDS process, it is the region’s expectations that will drive its design and implementation. The area’s local governments, development interests, and economic sectors will benefit from the CEDS if it: Accurately describes the region; Thoroughly analyzes development issues; Precisely represents regional priorities; and Clearly outlines action plans and performance measures. District III’s ability to influence the economic future of its 16 county region varies by activity. Its organizational structure and capabilities allow for three types of development strategy engagement activities: 1) Information resources; 2) Professional support; and 3) Direct participation. The three activities will be further explained in Section VIII (Performance Measures). Regardless of District III’s intentions, the association is most effective when cooperating with other public or private entities. Figure 1 illustrates this relationship. The diagram shows that District III encounters and responds to public and private sector actions. It acts as a facilitator for obtaining development information and resources. It can also function as a funding partner in certain situations. It is this ability to pivot and respond to opportunities and threats that make the association effective. CEDS 2014 Page 1 Introduction Figure 1 District III Strategy Engagement Private Local Investment Initiative District III Direct Participation Community Public Support Involvement The region’s CEDS can be a catalyst for positive change if the process and associated work products are relevant. A 2011 forum hosted by the National Association of Development Organizations (NADO) developed national standards for CEDS preparation. Both EDA representatives and planning district participants wanted to move the CEDS away from being a “broad based encyclopedia or narrative of the region, with a list of random projects and programs,” to a more asset based planning process. District III will strive to meet the seven NADO standards. 1) Targeting competitive advantages; 2) Fostering a collaborative framework; 3) Using modern analysis and planning tools; 4) Focusing on strategies rather than projects; 5) Promoting collaboration; 6) Communicating effectively; and 7) Engaging all sectors. The value of the CEDS to the region is illustrated in Figure 2. The CEDS provides a platform for diverse interests to encounter planning at a regional level.

  • Closing Time: a Twenty-Five-Year Retrospective on the Life and Death
    Copyright © 2009 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. MARSHALL DAMGAARD Closing Time A Twenty-five-Year Retrospective on the Life and Death of the University of South Dakota at Springfield Twenty-five years ago, South Dakota Governor William J. Janklow and the state legislature closed the University of South Dakota at Spring- field and converted it into a minimum-security prison. The closing— contested bitterly in the capitol, the courts, and public meeting halls— climaxed almost a century of continuing debates over the existence of the school.1 The community of Springfield had built much of its identity and economy around the school, and residents mourned the loss. Today, the former campus is the site of Mike Durfee State Prison, but memories of the University of South Dakota at Springfield and the fight to keep it alive remain vivid. To visitors, Springfield seems an unlikely place for controversy. The little town is tucked between the softly undulating tallgrass prairie and the slowly rolling Missouri River. Until the mid-nineteenth cen- tury, the area was the domain of the Yankton Sioux Indians, who, un- der their legendary leader Strike-the-Ree, ceded about 14 million acres between the Missouri and Big Sioux rivers with the Treaty of 1858. That treaty, followed closely by the Homestead Act of 1862, triggered a tor- rent of European immigrants—Czechs, Dutch, English, Germans, Ger- mans from Russia (including Hutterites and Mennonites), Russians, Swedes, Norwegians, Poles, Irish, and Austrians—who settled in what became Bon Homme County, Dakota Territory. The newcomers also included many cold-hardy settlers from Canada, plus empire-building Yankees from New England, who leapfrogged through Ohio, Indiana, 1.

ROBERT DOOLEY, Warden, Mike Durfee State Prison, Respondent and Appellee. * * * * APPEAL FROM THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE THIRD JUDICIAL CIRCUIT DEUEL COUNTY, SOUTH DAKOTA * * * * HONORABLE TIM D. TUCKER Judge * * * * CHRIS S. GILES of Ericsson & Giles, LLP Madison, South Dakota Attorneys for petitioner and appellant. MARTY J. JACKLEY Attorney General MAX A. GORS Special Assistant Attorney General Department of Corrections Pierre, South Dakota Attorneys for respondent and appellee. * * * * CONSIDERED ON BRIEFS ON NOVEMBER 16, 2010 OPINION FILED 12/29/10 #25654 ZINTER, Justice [¶1.] Steven West petitioned for a writ of habeas corpus challenging the Department of Correction’s calculation of the time he must serve on two consecutive sentences. The dispute involves the manner of calculating good-conduct credit under SDCL 24-5-1. The habeas court affirmed the Department’s calculation, which applied the statutory formula to each sentence separately. West appeals, arguing that the total time to be served under both sentences should be aggregated before applying the statute. We affirm the Department’s calculation. Facts and Procedural History [¶2.] On July 1, 1998, Steven West was sentenced to 7½ years in the state penitentiary for sexual contact with a child (his “first sentence”). On the same day, he was sentenced to 7½ years for sexual contact with another child (his “second sentence”). The second sentence was to run consecutively to the first. [¶3.] West is an “old-system” inmate because his offenses were committed before July 1, 1996.

    VOL. 41, NO. 1 SPRING 2011 South Dakota History 1 Index to South Dakota History, Volumes 1–40 (1970–2010) COMPILED BY RODGER HARTLEY Copyright 2011 by the South Dakota State Historical Society, Pierre, S.Dak. 57501-2217 ISSN 0361-8676 USER’S GUIDE Over the past forty years, each volume (four issues) of South Dakota History has carried its own index. From 1970 to 1994, these indexes were printed separately upon comple- tion of the last issue for the year. If not bound with the volume, as in a library set, they were easily misplaced or lost. As the journal approached its twenty-fifth year of publica- tion, the editors decided to integrate future indexes into the back of every final issue for the volume, a practice that began with Volume 26. To mark the milestone anniversary in 1995, they combined the indexes produced up until that time to create a twenty-five-year cumulative index. As the journal’s fortieth anniversary year of 2010 approached, the need for another compilation became clear. The index presented here integrates the past fifteen volume indexes into the earlier twenty-five-year cumulative index. While indexers’ styles and skills have varied over the years, every effort has been made to create a product that is as complete and consistent as possible. Throughout the index, volume numbers appear in bold-face type, while page numbers are in book-face. Within the larger entries, references to brief or isolated pas- sages are listed at the beginning, while more extensive references are grouped under the subheadings that follow.

COMES NOW Plaintiff Winston Brakeall, by and through his attorney, and hereby states and alleges the following for his Complaint: 1) In October 2017, the South Dakota Department of Corrections cut all funding to hire and pay for lawyers who provided essential services to inmates and determined that previously accessible hardcover legal resources would no longer be available. As a substitute, the DOC offered inmates access to an electronic tablet with a pre-loaded electronic database. This decision unlawfully restricts inmates’ fundamental right to open access to the Courts and violates the U.S. Constitution, the Constitution of the State of South Dakota, and federal law. 2) Plaintiff Winston Brakeall (“Brakeall”) has suffered, and will continue to suffer, an actual, cognizable injury as a result of Defendants’ decision to deprive inmates of access to the Courts. 1 Case 4:18-cv-04056-LLP Document 55 Filed 11/16/18 Page 2 of 19 PageID #: 383 3) With this action, Brakeall states claims for declaratory and prospective injunctive relief, pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
