Planning Preview | March 2026

The City of Sioux Falls Planning Commission held a meeting preview on February 27, 2026, to discuss zoning and land use changes scheduled for the March 4th meeting. Key agenda items included rezoning requests for residential and mixed-use developments, conditional use permits for manufacturing near residential areas, and updates on floodplain conservation. Additionally, the city highlighted the Community Tree Assistance Program, funded by a federal grant, which will install approximately 1,200 new trees in qualified census tracts during spring 2026. The program includes contractor installation and maintenance for the first growing season, aiming to enhance urban forestry and community safety. No direct contract awards or procurement decisions were detailed, but the tree planting initiative involves a contracted vendor for installation services.
