President's Report
Meredith Lee,
Board President
|
I think it is fair to say that this newsletter comes to you all from a strange place and time. For starters, it comes physically from my kitchen island/home office/home school class. Like a lot of people, "work" has taken on a completely different definition over the past few weeks. Of course, I am one of the lucky business owners as I am used to working with small groups and by appointment. Watching the incredible business owners of the Pierre area pivot to completely reinvent the way that they do business has been nothing short of spectacular. The restaurants providing curbside and delivery, the offices conducting business by FaceTime and Zoom, and retail businesses going from brick and mortar to click and mortar has been inspirational. There is still a lot to do to keep our businesses afloat during this time though.
The Chamber staff has been moving like a duck through water though all of this. Just smooth and calm on the visible part and paddling like mad below the surface. They have brought together a group of local businesses to easily deliver content regarding loans and grants. They have launched Feeding the Frontline, encouraging individuals to join the chamber, and then using those investment dollars to purchase treats and goods for the frontline works of the COVID-19 crisis from Chamber restaurants and grocery stores. And my favorite new undertaking - the Shop Where I Live site for local retailers to post their products and sell all in one place, like a local Amazon or Etsy! We've talked about this as a board for a while, but what better time to launch it than when Chamber members need it the most. Don't forget to check it out and buy online from your favorite local businesses! If your business has not set up shop on the site, give it a try. It takes about 5-10 minutes, and if you have any questions the Chamber is always happy to help.
Everything looks a little different right now, but we have a great thing going in Pierre. We might be missing some of our favorite events, but when life goes back to "normal" and social distancing becomes a joke we use to fondly remember the spring of 2020, everything will become a celebration!

Pierre Mayor Steve Harding's Report
|
Well, COVID-19 is certainly disrupting lives. But just like you, in spite of the virus, the City is maintaining normal operations as much as possible. We're continuing to move forward with our major projects where we can.
The water treatment facility, set to start producing water in 2022, remains on track. The facility is about 60% designed, and we expect to start bidding that project in July. You'll remember, the project was approved by a 73% public vote in 2018. It will treat surface water from the Missouri River to eliminate the high mineral levels our current system has.
When people hear 60% designed, they want to know what the building is going to look like. It's important to understand that when you build a water treatment facility, you build it from the inside out. The final exterior design is not complete; we're still focused on the piping!
You might remember, we also have a $15 million dollar investment happening at our wastewater treatment plant in southeast Pierre. I'm very pleased we have been able to make this investment without increasing wastewater rates this year. This project has also hit the 60% design stage. Bidding for the wastewater project is expected to happen in August. Once complete, it will make our treatment process more efficient while shrinking the size of the facility and improving enhanced odor control mechanisms.
Now, thanks to COVID-19, there's still some elements of surprise with both these projects. As of now, contractors are still operating. We can't predict how contractors will or won't be operating come July and August. We also can't predict the availability of the supplies and materials needed to start the construction phase of these projects. If manufacturers aren't cranking out materials, they might not be available. If they're cranking them out at a slower rate, there may be a supply and demand issue; that issue could increase the cost of those supplies and materials.
I am happy to report that the $4.4 million upgrade to the local Boys and Girls Club is 75% complete. Because the Club is housed in a City-owned building, the City is using budgeted revenue for about half of the remodeling and expansion project; the Boys and Girls Club partnered with the City to complete the financing package. That's great news because it caused no new cost to the taxpayers. Hopefully, the new and improved facility can get put to good use sooner rather than later!
The outdoor pool project continues to move forward. Though, in light of the pandemic, we have paused the fundraising campaign for a bit. The good news is the city-funded portion of the project -the recreational pool, the 25-meter multi-purpose pool, infrastructure and bathhouse -is financed with existing revenue. That is secure and requires no new cost to the taxpayers.
Because of COVID-19, we do anticipate low sales tax revenue. We will continue to monitor our revenue and adjust our 2020 budget as necessary with the goal of completing as many planned projects as possible while still being financially prudent. Please know, all city operations have been reviewed and plans developed to continue providing essential services to the community.
We don't know what the next few months will bring or the financial fallout the virus will cause. We do know that the City is working hard to maintain a sense of normalcy and to prime things well for recovery.

Pierre, SD
- As many of us in the workforce are being asked to serve public health by social distancing, our healthcare workers, grocery store staff, police, firefighters and more are serving our communities on the frontline. Right now, they are stepping up to take care of the community's needs and are ready to respond with expanded efforts as this pandemic is expected to increase at a drastic pace. As they do this, they are lacking resources, they are risking their own health and enduring burnout, exhaustion and many other challenges on our behalf.
The Pierre Area Chamber of Commerce is encouraging individuals and families to join the Chamber in "Feeding the Frontline" as we invest 100% of the proceeds from this initiative on the frontlines of COVID-19. Your investment will provide two-fold support, first to businesses that need our help and then to the frontline to send encouraging messages and local gifts.
Individual Loyal2Local Supporter is $50 and a Family Loyal2Local Supporter is $100; you can join this initiative by going to the Chamber's calendar of events on our website,
www.pierre.org
, or at our event hosted by 'PierreAreaChamber' on Facebook. While we are working remotely, we are still available by phone at 605-224-7361. Leave a message with your contact information and we will return the call promptly.
Jamie Seiner, CEO of the Pierre Area Chamber of Commerce, states, "These health professionals are our first responders in the fight against the coronavirus. They will also be our guides and community allies on the road to our full recovery in Pierre and Fort Pierre. They're taking care of us. We need to help take care of them and our businesses to get through this as a strong community. Please join us in supporting our local 'Frontline'."
The Pierre Area Chamber of Commerce is an active membership organization that has served the Pierre and Fort Pierre communities since origination as the Pierre Citizens Union in 1881. The Chamber promotes prosperity, growth, and our way of life in the lower Oahe region.

Fort Pierre Mayor Gloria Hanson's Report
|
The Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) seems to be our main (only) topic of conversation, but everything else pales in importance. The City of Fort Pierre's first official action declared an emergency to (1) allow alternative work arrangements or schedules for employees; (2) closing all City buildings to the public; and (3) holding meetings by teleconference.
A few days later, the Fort Pierre City Council held a special meeting to adopt an emergency ordinance which is very similar to what Pierre adopted. While the vast majority of individuals and businesses take the coronavirus pandemic seriously and act responsibly to protect the health and lives of all of us, there are a few exceptions, and it was our intent to respond out of concern for public health.
In general terms, the ordinance limits public gatherings to ten where there isn't sufficient space to have six feet of separation. The entire ordinance is No. 1041 and can be found on the City website.
I have been pleasantly surprised to receive calls from individuals who are not calling to complain; rather, they are asking about protocols they are putting in place for their event or business, and asking for my opinion on whether those new protocols would fit with the intent of the new ordinance. That was exactly the result we had hoped for.
And of course, life in City Government goes on. We are continuing to plan maintenance projects, such as street repair and chip seal. We continue to monitor water levels through regular contact with the Corps of Engineers (things so far are looking hopeful for a near- normal year, water-wise). We are moving forward with the design and implementation of major improvements to our wastewater lagoon system, working with engineers and the Department of Natural Resources.
On the other hand, there are hard decisions to be made on changes or postponement of planned events, decisions on parks, campground, the swimming pool and other public places, and there will likely not be any major street projects this year. Revenues from sales tax will obviously be impacted by the pandemic, and we don't want to spend money we don't have.
While we wait for our lives to return to normal, please know that the City offices are still staffed, essential work is being done, and your phone call or email message will be answered promptly. There is information on our web site about participating in public meetings. Feel free to call in.
Stay safe, practice good hygiene and social distancing, and support your local businesses. We will get through this!

CVB Report
Tia Kafka
, Convention & Visitors Bureau Director
|
Over the last couple of months, the travel and tourism industry has taken a major hit from the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact to the industry is expected to be about $400 billion, this is seven times what it was after 9/11. Travel and tourism provides millions of dollars in revenue for our state and is an important driver to the economy on a national, statewide and local level.
For South Dakota, the peak infections rate is slated to hit mid-June. Although our state is not in a lockdown situation, Governor Noem is still working on a South Dakota-specific plan to reopen the state's economy. This plan is especially important to the tourism industry and providing guidance to industry partners when it is the right time to open and encourage travel.
In the past, the tourism industry has been resilient and able to recover quickly after facing setbacks and economic stress. Industry partners are optimistic that individuals and families will be eager to get out and travel when its safe. When that time comes, please encourage family and friends to visit Pierre and help our local tourism businesses, attractions and lodging establishments.

We Are All In This Together!
Coronavirus, COVID-19, Shelter-In-Place, Social Distancing, Community Spread, Stay Home. Words and phrases we've learned in only a short time. And, they've turned our lives upside down in ways we can only imagine. Normal as we knew it is no longer part of our lives.
For tourism businesses this is a very tough and scary time. What is going to happen to the summer, can we apply for PPP money or grants or loans of any kind? Will we be able to make it through the summer with fewer customers?
First of all, don't panic. While this is easier said than done, it will not solve any of our challenges. We need to be looking ahead at marketing and promotion decisions with data and planning. We need to continue to sell our businesses, our region along the river, and our state. At SD Missouri River Tourism we are using the narrative that the river is still here, still beautiful and it will be here when this is over. And, when that happens, we are letting potential visitors know that we will welcome them with open arms. Our goal is to stay in front of the tourist and remind them of who we are and where we are located. Our messaging at this time is done through Social Media. Using the social media platforms, we can change the message quickly.
Research at this moment is showing that road trips will be popular when visitors can move about. Money will be an issue so the trips will possibly be shorter. With that in mind, our marketing will be to states surrounding South Dakota. We will focus on our wide-open spaces, affordable venues, safety and that we have memories awaiting them in Central South Dakota.
We will be honest in our marketing. Creating a virtual travel platform that lets potential visitors know we are affordable and safe and to come tour the wide-open spaces along the river. We have memories waiting for them.
With all of these things in mind, I would encourage you to sit down and make plans for the future. We don't know exactly what will happen, but we do know sometime it will come to an end - and we need to be ready for that. Remembering and planning for a future that most likely will not be as it was. Time to be creative and as positive as we can be. If there is anything SD Missouri River Tourism Association can do, or if you have any questions - give us a call at 605-224-4617.
Remember. . .We Are All In This Together!
