NOTICE OF AUDIT OF THE FISCAL AFFAIRS OF
SIOUX FALLS SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 49-5
Notice is hereby given that the records and books of account of Sioux Falls School District No. 49-5 of Minnehaha County, South Dakota, have been audited by Eide Bailly LLP for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, and that a detailed report thereon is filed with the governing board, the Director of Finance, and the Department of Legislative Audit, 427 South Chapelle, Pierre, South Dakota, for public inspection.
This notice is published in compliance with the provisions of SDCL 4-11-7.2.
Finding 2025-001 Audit Adjustments and Passed Audit Adjustments
Material Weakness
Criteria: The School District’s internal control structure should be designed to provide for the preparation of and recording and processing of all entries to the financial statements being audited in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Condition: During our audit procedures, we identified certain misstatements as a result of our audit procedures brought to the attention of and corrected by management. We also identified certain misstatements, deemed to be immaterial individually and in the aggregate to the financial statements as a whole, that were passed on for adjustment by management. We, as the auditor, were requested to maintain the GASB 87 and 96 lease and SBITA schedules for the School District as a nonattest service and made the necessary adjustments as part of the audit for lease and SBITA activities under GASB 87 and 96, which are included as part of the corrected identified misstatements.
Cause: The School District’s internal controls did not identify and detect the misstatements noted during our audit, or in the case of GASB 87 and GASB 96 maintenance of schedules and calculation, the School District requested these to be performed by the auditor as a nonattest service; internal control would be to review and approve the result of the nonattest service provided. The School District, as a cost/benefit consideration, requested the maintenance of GASB 87 and GASB 96 schedules and calculations to be performed as a nonattest service with any proposed adjustments posted by the auditor.
Effect: The presence of identified audit adjustments and passed audit adjustments, or reliance on the auditor for certain adjustments, may affect the condition of financial information throughout the year being used by management in analysis and decision making and increase the risk that potential misstatements remain present in the financial statements.
Recommendation: We recommend management perform a thorough review of the account balances in each fund to ensure all necessary adjustments are reflected in the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Furthermore, we recommend thorough review of all auditor-proposed adjustments from nonattest services provided prior to management approval.
Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding. The School District, based upon consideration of certain cost and benefit factors of maintaining the lease and SBITA schedules internally and preparation of the related adjustments, determined requesting the auditor to maintain and prepare the schedules and proposed adjustments as the best use of current resources.

Pell Grant Program, 84.007 – FSEOG Program
2024-2025 Award Year
Special Tests and Provision – Disbursements to or on Behalf of Students
Significant Deficiency in Internal Controls over Compliance
Criteria: When Title IV funds are credited to a student account and they exceed the amount of tuition and fees, food and housing, and other authorized charges assessed the student, a credit balance is created. The institution must pay the resulting credit balance directly to the student or parent borrower within 14 days after (1) the first day of class of a payment period if the credit balance occurred on or before that day, or (2) the balance occurred if that was after the first day of class. Also, as allowed under 34 CFR 668.164(c)(3), a school may pay prior award year charges up to $200. If over $200, student authorization is required to apply the payments to a prior-year balance.
Condition: During testing over credit balances, one student did not receive the refund on a timely basis.
Cause: The student was awarded aid at an off time in the semester, and the refund was not provided within the 14-day window.
Effect: The students were not given the refund in a timely manner.
Questioned Costs: None.
Context/Sampling: A nonstatistical sample of 60 students who received Title IV disbursements out of 1,903 students who received aid.
Repeat Finding from Prior Year(s): Yes.
Recommendation: We recommend disbursements made be reviewed to ensure that the refunds are being provided to students on a timely basis.
Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding.

Special Tests and Provision – NSLDS Reporting
Significant Deficiency in Internal Controls over Compliance
Criteria: 34 CFR section 685.309 sets forth the criteria for administrative and fiscal control and fund accounting requirements for schools participating in the Direct Loan Program in regard to enrollment reporting requirements.
Condition: We identified through our testing over enrollment reporting one instance of a student’s program begin date incorrectly reported to NSLDS.
Cause: An error in entry of the date was made in the system which is used to report to NSLDS, so the date was incorrectly reported.
Effect: The error in reporting resulted in incorrect program start date for the student.
Questioned Costs: None.
Context/Sampling: A nonstatistical sample of 60 students with a change in status out of approximately 820 students with a change in status were selected for testing of enrollment reporting requirements.
Repeat Finding from Prior Year(s): Yes.
Recommendation: We recommend the financial aid and registrar’s offices review controls over information being entered into the software for dates and other academic information that is required to be reported to ensure that status changes and other academic information are certified within 60 days of the effective date.
Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding.

• Responses from these community members indicate STC is excelling at its core functions of economic/workforce alignment and impact and student learning opportunities
• STC can celebrate that all responding community members said it is true that Southeast Tech has a strong connection with the community
• Reputation and presence is a bit lower, and there may be opportunity for STC to highlight its alumni presence and impact in the community. Following general discussion, a motion was made by Gail Swenson and seconded by Elizabeth Duffy, three (3) votes “yes” on roll call to acknowledge the Community Engagement Survey Update.
Action ST01009 STC Director of Workforce Development, Dr. Sara M. Vande Kamp provided an overview of Southeast Technical College’s strategic approach to launching a phased, sustainable Alumni Association, aligned with the college’s Workforce Development office and Institutional Goal #4: Strengthen relationships and institutional impact through alumni engagement, partnerships, and regional economic development. (MRF #ST735). Southeast Technical College is taking intentional steps to build a coordinated alumni engagement structure that reflects the college’s mission, strengthens regional workforce outcomes, and deepens long term relationships with graduates. A subcommittee within Institutional Goal #4 of the Strategic Plan developed this framework under the leadership of Dr. Sara Vande Kamp. While alumni have long contributed to STC’s reputation and employer partnerships, the absence of a formalized engagement model has created an opportunity to establish a more aligned, strategic, and scalable approach.
The resulting phased framework prioritizes infrastructure before programming. Phase 1 focuses on launching a centralized alumni web presence, building a reliable alumni database, strengthening identity through storytelling, and initiating low barrier engagement opportunities, including a proposed spring alumni event aimed at gathering early feedback and building momentum. These foundational elements support accurate alumni data collection, stronger workforce based storytelling, and clear pathways for future alumni involvement.
This work is deeply aligned with STC’s mission: preparing students for thriving careers through innovative, industry driven pathways and strong community partnerships to inspire lifelong success. Alumni are among the college’s strongest workforce assets, representing tangible program outcomes and employer partnerships across the region. As the framework evolves, Phase 2 (6–18 months) will focus on establishing an alumni advisory group, increasing alumni involvement in panels and workforce related events, and expanding communication strategies. Long term planning includes developing a fully realized Alumni Association with consistent engagement, sustained institutional partnerships, and opportunities for mentorship, advocacy, and philanthropy. This phased approach positions alumni engagement as a strategic investment in both STC’s graduates and the region’s workforce ecosystem.
Following general discussion, a motion was made by Gail Swenson and seconded by Elizabeth Duffy, three (3) votes “yes” on roll call for to acknowledge the Southeast Technical College Alumni Association Framework and its alignment with Institutional Goal #4 and workforce development priorities.

Action ST01011 Vice President of Finance Christine Goldsmith provided the Financial Update Report (MRF #ST737). Highlights of the report included high-level year-to-date revenues and expenses and an overview of 4-year comparison of combined fund balances.
Following general discussion, a motion was made by Elizabeth Duffy and seconded by Gail Swenson, three (3) votes “yes” on roll call acknowledging the Financial Update Report.
Action ST01012 STC Vice President of Academic Affairs Fenecia Homan presented four academic changes designed to respond to workforce demand, increase student access and flexibility, and improve program efficiency while maintaining academic quality. (MRF #ST738). The proposed changes include the addition of two new certificates, a Landscaping Certificate and an Advanced Emergency Medical Technician (AEMT) Certificate, that build on existing degree programs and align with documented industry and regional workforce needs. The Landscaping Certificate responds to student and employer demand by providing a focused credential for students already enrolled in the Horticulture AAS or Sports Turf AAS, requiring minimal additional credits. The AEMT Certificate runs concurrently with the January-start Paramedic Program and creates a stackable pathway into advanced EMS practice, particularly supporting rural and volunteer EMS systems.
In addition, STC proposes a Credit for Prior Learning degree completion option within the Paramedic Science AAS. This option recognizes nationally registered and state-licensed paramedics’ existing certifications and professional experience, allowing degree completion through 12 credits of new coursework that equate to 44 credits of the current program. This change supports workforce retention, career advancement, and leadership development in Emergency Medical Services.
Finally, the College recommends reorganizing the existing Entrepreneurship AAS by offering entrepreneurship coursework as a program emphasis within the Business Administration AAS, consistent with advisory board and accreditor (ACBSP) guidance. This change involves no modification to coursework, credit hours, or learning outcomes, and improves alignment, efficiency, and student flexibility.
Collectively, these proposals strengthen workforce responsiveness, expand stackable credential pathways, and optimize institutional resources while preserving academic rigor and accreditation standards.
A motion was made by Elizabeth Duffy and seconded by Gail Swenson, three (3) votes “yes” on roll call, approving Academic Program Changes.
Action ST01013 STC President Cory Clasemann provided an update on this year’s state legislative session (MRFST#739). This year South Dakota legislative session ended on March 12, 2026. This year’s session resulted in some notable funding increases for STC:
• SB 79 will provide $6 million in one-time funding to support the construction of the James Abdnor Center for Advanced Manufacturing.
• The per student allocation (PSA), which is the largest source of state funding to the college, will increase for FY27 from $6,324.04 per FTE to $6,412.57. This will result in approximately $400,000 in additional revenue for STC.
• Maintenance & repair (M&R) funding will increase to $916,658 in FY27, an increase of nearly $325,000 from FY26. This is a combination of on-going and one-time funds.
In other bills of note, Governor Rhoden signed SB 63 into law, which creates the Office of Apprenticeship within the Department of Labor and Regulation.

RESOLUTION MC26-15
RESOLUTION RELATING TO ISSUING CERTIFICATES OF PARTICIPATION TO REFUND THE 2017 CERTIFICATES OF PARTICIPATION; AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF ONE OR MORE LEASE-PURCHASE AGREEMENTS AND APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF RELATED DOCUMENTS
BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Commissioners of Minnehaha County, South Dakota (the “County”), as follows:
Section 1 Recitals.
1.1 The County is authorized by South Dakota Codified Laws, Chapter 7-25, inclusive, as amended (the “Act”), to enter into lease-purchase agreements for acquisition of real or personal property that the governing body considers necessary or appropriate to carry out its governmental and proprietary functions.
1.2 Pursuant to the Act, the governing body has heretofore found and determined that it was necessary and appropriate to enter into to a Ground Lease Agreement, dated as of September 1, 1992, as amended and supplemented (the “Ground Lease”) between the County and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Original Trustee”) and the U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as successor to the Original Trustee (the “Trustee”) has heretofore acquired certain interests in real properly (the “Land”) from the County, and the Trustee has leased back to the County its interest in the Land and has leased and agreed to sell to the County the Facilities to be acquired, renovated, constructed and equipped thereon to the County pursuant to a Lease-Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 1, 1992 (the “Original Lease”), as heretofore amended and supplemented most recently by that certain Twentieth Amendment to Lease dated as of April 1, 2023 (the Original Lease as so amended and supplemented, as now or hereafter amended and supplemented, the Lease”).
1.3 To finance the acquisition, construction, improvement and equipping of the Facilities, the County and the Trustee have executed and delivered that certain Declaration of Trust dated as of September 1, 1992 (the “Original Trust”), as most recently amended and supplemented by that certain Twentieth Supplemental Declaration of Trust dated as of April 1, 2023 (the Original Trust as so amended and supplemented, as now or hereafter amended or supplemented, the “Trust Agreement”) pursuant to which the Trustee has from time to time issued various series of Certificates of Participation (as defined in the Trust Agreement, the “Certificates”) in the lease payments to be made by the County under the Lease.
1.4 The governing body of the County finds it necessary and appropriate to carry out its governmental and proprietary functions to provide for the issuance of Certificates of Participation (Limited Tax General Obligation) in one or more series to execute and deliver a Supplemental Declaration of Trust which will supplement and amend the Trust Agreement for the purpose of issuing Refunding Certificates of Participation (the “Refunding Certificates”) to refund on a current basis all or any portion of the Certificates of Participation, Series 2017 which are currently outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of $33,460,000 (the “Certificates to be Refunded”) which refunding of the Certificates to be Refunded is expected to provide a reduction in the lease payments associated with the Certificates to be Refunded.
1.5 The governing body further finds and determines it to be necessary and appropriate, and in the public interest, to execute and deliver one or more Supplemental Declaration of Trust (collectively, the “Refunding Supplemental Trust”), which will supplement and amend the Trust Agreement pursuant to which the Trustee will (i) issue one or more series of Certificates of Participation (the “Refunding Certificates”) in the lease payments to be made by the County under the Lease, as amended by one or more Amendments to Lease-Purchase Agreement (each “Refunding Amendment to Lease”) and (ii) receive, hold and invest the proceeds of the sale of the Refunding Certificates and deposit the proceeds temporarily in an optional redemption account (the “Refunding Account”) pending application, together with any available funds on hand, to redeem the Certificates to be Refunded. The Refunding Certificates may be divided and issued into more than one series in which case they shall be designated and identified by designation of years and/or letters (e.g. Series 2026A, Series 2026B, Series 2026C, etc.) and each Refunding Amendment to Lease and Refunding Supplemental Trust shall be designated numerically in sequence (e.g., Twenty-First, Twenty-Second etc.).
1.6 The Refunding Certificates authorized hereunder will be offered pursuant to an Official Statement (separately or collectively, the “Official Statement”).
1.7 Forms of the following documents relating to the Refunding Certificates are directed to be prepared by Perkins Coie LLP, as Bond Counsel, and submitted to the County and are hereby directed to be filed with and approved by the County Auditor and the Deputy State’s Attorney: (a) the Refunding Amendment to Lease, (b) the Refunding Supplemental Trust and (c) the Certificate Purchase Agreement and (d) a Continuing Disclosure Undertaking with respect to the Refunding Certificates (the “Continuing Disclosure Undertaking” and, together with the Refunding Amendment to Lease, the Refunding Supplemental Trust, the Certificate Purchase Agreement and any and all related documents, certificates, and other instruments in connection with the Refunding Certificates herein referred to as the “Documents”). The appointment of Bond Counsel pursuant to that certain letter agreement dated March 5, 2019, is hereby ratified and confirmed.
Section 2 Authorization of Documents.
2.1 Authorization and Approval of the Documents for the Refunding Certificates. The refunding of the Certificates to be Refunded described above is found to be in the public interest and favorable to the County and its residents and is hereby approved. The Chairman and County Auditor are authorized to approve the principal amount of a Refunding Amendment to Lease and related series of Certificates to refund the Certificates to be Refunded in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $33,800,000 by providing for a deposit in the Refunding Account sufficient to refund and redeem all of the Certificates to be Refunded. The term for the Refunding Certificates shall not exceed twelve (12) years from the date of the related Amendment to Lease and the interest rate or rates thereon shall not exceed a rate equivalent to a bond yield (calculated consistent with the arbitrage regulations currently applicable to tax exempt bonds pursuant to Section 148 of the Code) of 3.5% per annum. The Refunding Certificates are to be sold to the Underwriter pursuant to a negotiated sale to be evidenced by a Certificate Purchase Agreement (the “Certificate Purchase Agreement”) between the County and Collier Securities (the “Underwriter”), which Certificate Purchase Agreement shall specify a purchase price of not less than 99.2%.
2.2 The Documents for the Refunding Certificates are hereby approved if the County Auditor deems them appropriate and the Documents are approved by the Deputy State’s Attorney. The Chairman and the County Auditor are directed to execute the Documents if approved by the County Auditor. Copies of all Documents shall be delivered, filed and recorded as provided therein. The Chairman and the County Auditor and the Deputy State’s Attorney are also authorized and directed to execute such other instruments as may be required to give effect to the transactions therein contemplated. The County will cooperate in the issuance of the Refunding Certificates and the Chairman, the County Auditor and the Deputy State’s Attorney shall execute such other instruments as are necessary to the issuance of the Refunding Certificates.
Section 3 Modification, Absence of Officers. The approval hereby given to the Documents includes an approval of such additional details therein as may be necessary and appropriate and such modifications thereto, deletions therefrom and additions thereto as may be necessary and appropriate and approved by the Deputy State’s Attorney prior to the execution of the Documents.

Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. All contracts and subcontracts that result from this solicitation incorporate by reference the provisions of 29 CFR part 201, et seq, the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), with the same force and effect as if given in full text. The FLSA sets minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and child labor standards for full and part-time workers.

2) has not knowingly entered into any contract or subcontract for this project with a person that is a citizen or national of a foreign country included on the list of countries that discriminate against U.S. firms as published by the USTR; and
3) has not entered into any subcontract for any product to be used on the Federal project that is produced in a foreign country included on the list of countries that discriminate against U.S. firms published by the USTR.

The Offeror/Contractor must provide immediate written notice to the Owner if the Offeror/Contractor learns that its certification or that of a subcontractor was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.

2) whose subcontractors are owned or controlled by one or more citizens or nationals of a foreign country on such U.S.T.R. list; or
3) who incorporates in the public works project any product of a foreign country on such U.S.T.R. list.
Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to require establishment of a system of records in order to render, in good faith, the certification required by this provision. The knowledge and information of a contractor is not required to exceed that which is normally possessed by a prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings.
The Offeror agrees that, if awarded a contract resulting from this solicitation, it will incorporate this provision for certification without modification in all lower tier subcontracts. The Contractor may rely on the certification of a prospective subcontractor that it is not a firm from a foreign country included on the list of countries that discriminate against U.S. firms as published by USTR, unless the Offeror has knowledge that the certification is erroneous.
This certification is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when making an award. If it is later determined that the Contractor or subcontractor knowingly rendered an erroneous certification, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) may direct through the Owner cancellation of the contract or subcontract for default at no cost to the Owner or the FAA.

The South Dakota Department of Transportation (SDDOT) is soliciting statements of interest and qualifications from consulting firms for both State and Local Government projects. The purpose is to allow additional consultants to apply to join the existing list, in each category of work, for which the SDDOT will enter into a Pre-Qualified Consultant Retainer Agreement for the remaining years of the 2026 – 2028 contract. The Retainer Agreements are an indefinite-quantity contract. Any work orders issued during the term of these Agreements and not completed within that period will be completed within the time specified in the work orders. If a firm did not apply for that category of work in 2025, or if significant changes have been made to the firm’s qualifications, they may apply in this interim year. The SDDOT will rank all submissions and if a firm exceeds the rank of the lowest ranking firm already on the list, that firm may be added for that category.

KIRSTEN STARR WILLIAMS, PLAINTIFF
V.
RONNIE TRYMAIN WILLIAMS JR., DEFENDANT
CASE NO.: 49DIV25-427
SUMMONS
(WITH MINOR CHILD)
TO THE ABOVE-NAMED DEFENDANT:
YOU ARE HEREBY SUMMONED and required to answer the Complaint with Minor Children of the Plaintiff, a copy of which is herewith served upon you, and to serve the Plaintiff with a copy of your Answer, or other proper response, within thiry days of service.
IF YOU FAIL TO DO SO, judgement by default may be taken against you for the relief demanded in the Complaint sixty days from the date of the service of this Summons and Complaint with Minor Children, not counting the day of service.
NOTICE
South Dakota law provides that upon the filing and service of the Summons and Complaint with Minor Children on the Defendant, a Temporary Restraining Order shall be in effect against both parties until the final decree is entered, the Complaint with Minor Children is dismissed or until further order of the Court. Either party may apply to the Court for further temporary orders or modification or revocation of this Order.
TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER
PER SDCL § 25-4-33.1, BY ORDER OF THE COURT, YOU AND YOUR SPOUSE ARE:
(1) Restrained from transferring, encumbering, concealing or in any way dissipating or disposing of any marital assets, without the written consent of the other party or an order of the Court, except as may be necessary in the usual course of business or for the necessities of life. You are to notify the other party of any proposed extraordinary expenditures and to account to the Court for all extraordinary expenditures made after the Temporary Restraining Order is in effect;
(2) Restrained from molesting or disturbing the peace of the other party;
(3) Restrained from removing any minor child of the parties from the state without the written consent of the other party or an order of the court; and
(4) Restrained from making any changes to any insurance coverage for the parties or any child of the parties without the written consent of the other party or an order of the court unless the change under the applicable insurance coverage increases the benefits, adds additional property, persons, or perils to be covered, or is required by the insurer.
INITIAL CUSTODY ORDER
Pursuant to SDCL § 25-4A-11 et seq., upon service of this Summons, the attached South Dakota Parenting Guidlines (Form UJS-302) become an Order of this Court. Except as provided in SDCL § 33-6-10, any minor children of this marriage shall remain in the custody of the parent who has been the primary caregiver for the minor children for the majority of the time in the twelve months preceeding the filing of the Summons and Complaint with Minor Children, unless the parties otherwise agree. The guidelines are subject to any provision established by a South Dakota state court in the following: a temporary or permanent domestic protection order, an order arising out of an abuse or neglect proceeding, a bond condition arising out of a criminal case, and an order in any other proceeding affecting child custody or support. SDCL § 25-4A-14.
The attached guidelines apply and shall continue in effect unless the parties agree or the Court otherwise orders. Imposition of these standard guidelines creates no presumption as to who may be awarded custody at any hearing. Per SDCL § 25-4A-12, any agreement by the parties for visition other than the standard guidelines must be in writing, signed by both parties, and filed with the Court. The agreed plan shall be approved by court order and replace the standard guidelines or any plan previously filed.
Per SDCL § 25-4A-13, if either party objects to the implmentation of the South Dakota Parenting Guidelines (Form UJS-302) as the initial custody agreement, the objecting party shall file an objection with the Clerk of Court. The Court shall order a hearing which shall be held not later than thirty days after the date of the objection. The Court shall then issue its temporary custody and visitation order after considering the best interest of the child(ren) consistent with the provisions of SDCL § 25-4-45.
if either spouse violates any of these provisions, that spouse may be found to be in contempt of court and may be ordered to pay costs and expenses, including but not limited to the attorney fees of the other spouse.
