• Do you wanna run for office? C'mon let's go and run. The city sent out a reminder this week that there are four up-for-grabs City Council seats and a soon-to-be-empty mayor's office. The next city election is June 2, 2026 in conjunction with the state's primary election. You can throw your hat in the ring, too. Remember what Mayor Paul TenHaken just said about needing a next generation of leaders? It could be you. Learn more here, or email sfelections@siouxfalls.gov.
  • It's your last chance to 'Shape Sioux Falls.' The city is giving folks one more chance to weigh in on the Shape Sioux Falls 2050 plan, which will guide planning, zoning, building requirements, etc. for years to come.
    • “Sioux Falls has a huge opportunity right now to get involved in their community’s long-term planning efforts, through the Shape Sioux Falls 2050 plan,” said Fletcher Lacock, Senior Planner. “Oftentimes, people learn about City planning after the plan is adopted, either through zoning or building requirements. Residents have the opportunity, today, to tell us what they want the future of Sioux Falls to look like.”
    • Learn more about the plan and share your thoughts here. Or, you can join city planners in-person from 5 to 7 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 6 at the downtown library.
