Sioux Falls, SD (KELO-AM) In his annual State of the City address on Thursday, Sioux Falls Mayor Mike Huether talked about the big challenges the city's already tackled and those that are still ahead.
From the new events center to the indoor aquatic center, from crumbling roads to handling bad neighbors, Huether ticked off recent accomplishments. He then turned to the biggest needs moving forward.
Huether told city council that job number one should be workforce development, helping find the people for the thousands of vacant jobs in booming Sioux Falls. Other big needs include finally getting a deal on the 10 acre railroad development land downtown.
Sioux Falls' biggest cheerleader said that the citizens know that it's just not "butterflies, tulips, and honey" in town and he knows that too.
