Mayor Mike is once again looking for special help when he visits the Minnehaha County Commission on May 3, 2016. It appears his dirty little slough is running low on water and the neighbor has water to drain off his field. It should be simple, right?
Wrong. Mikey wants the county to install anti-stink and slime nitrogenator so he can stand to be outside of his monster lake cabin 41.7 miles from Sioux Falls. As usual, it is always about and for Mike Huether including his input testimony lasting over 9 1/2 minutes.
Good thing Chair Cindy plays more fair than City Council moderator Mike.
I have spoken before both city and county commission meetings. At the county commission, I felt both Cindi Heiberger and Jeff Barth were genuinely interested in my concern. Kelly acted like there were a thousand other places he’d rather be. Beninga seemed to be just a tad condescending, but not nearly as bad as he was as a city com. At the teo city commission meetings where I have spoken up, I knew I was wasting my time, as their minds are rarely, if ever, swayed by public input.
MMM vs. the Minnehaha Manure Mafia. Good luck with this lost cause, everybody.
I would think the Hutterites would want it for a new colony. Huether (heater) colonies They could even build a walmrt on s slough they did it at 85 and minn. think positive mmm it will only increase your Property value. Lol
It’s 42 air miles to Diamond Lake but 70 road miles. It’s almost at Madison and barely in Minnehaha County. The county gravelled a road half a mile to his house. I’d say that’s enough. It’s a good idea to let the lake dry up so ConAir can land there to arrest him. The next mayor should be one who lives in Sioux Falls. One who can manage city business and natural disasters from here. This one comes to town once a week for the council meeting.
It’s hard to listen to a special interest 10 minute speech when only 5 minutes public input is authorized. When was the last time you heard Huether talk about Sioux Falls more than 5 minutes? Sounds like you must be a city or county official to live at Diamond Lake. No wonder there’s no concern for homelessness, crime, and infrastructure decay in Sioux Falls. Our leaders live in a gated community an hour out of town on their own continent.
Huether pals up with his neighbors there. Problem is he lives on the east side of the lake while they live miles away on the west. If you’re gonna do a neighborhood watch, shouldn’t they be neighbors?
How much time did city planning and zoning put into the exhibits for his distant out of town estate?
Your mapquest must be a different version that the rest of the world dan….You stay crazy.
Doesn’t FSA weigh in on this since it is farmland that is being drained? On our family farmland, we plowed up some pastureland to plant crops and weren’t allowed to drain a 10×20 wetland low spot — that would drain into a bigger wetland low spot. Puddle protection.
MMM, don’t you know you should be careful where you build? You never know what will wind up next to you! You know like an eyesore 190,000 sq ft bldg, a giant house on a little lot or a little house on a giant lot, or a stinky pond or animal containment facility. Because, rules can change after you’ve built your dreamy home. Of course you would be told you should have expected the rules to change and “what were you thinking you rich snot”.
Got a kick out of MMM today on the tv news, talking about how the neighbors will just accept knowing that this will be in front of the supreme court real soon.
You bring up something I have said all along, we never really own our property, we are kind of just in a state of borrowing. Maybe I am some kind of visionary, but when I bought my house in central SF almost 14 years ago, I knew what I wanted, to be surrounded by stuff I could never change.
Had a person I have known for almost 20 years drive by my house last week and he honked his horn as he saw me in my yard. I went over to say HI. He was so jealous of my pad, and it’s location.
I warn all my friends who want to become home owners in this town. Pick cautiously.
You do have to get permission if the land meets some criteria. This sounds like an area that is already drainage area that their adding tile to.
A lot of the tiling should be curbed or stopped as it’s having an affect on our natural resources.
I’ve always found the location of damayors second home suspicious. I still have a hunch he paid nothing for it.
l3wis: Be careful with that assumption about things not changing around you. I lived in central SF for a long time and wound up 3 blocks from one “sober” living home and 2 1/2 blocks from another one. Zoning exception or some other baloney. (Remember Transitional Living Corporation?) Besides, the way Shape Places is, anyone can tear anything down and build something else — not many restrictions. Just ask the homeowners by McKennan Park that can’t use their fireplace.
There are several issues with mmm’s pond getaway. Twenty, thirty years ago when fishing was a big part of my weekends, I’d fished that pond. It was shallow then, especially where he is at. If it has dropped as much as the mayor suggests in the past 4 years, then mmm could stand on his shoreline, and crash a tennis ball as far as he can and not have that ball land in more than 3 feet of water.
To the notrh a couple miles is a large farm animal containment operation. That’s a lot of methane every day, and probably just one of the reasons he needs help getting rid of the pea soup.
Another potential issue is where bakken oil pipeline plans on running it’s oil pipeline. Just a couple miles south. Not to worry though. Oil pipelines never leak.
Good thing climate change isn’t real.
Seems to me he built on a slough in an agriculture waste land, that’s being impacted by years of environmental abuse. Bummer. We liberal wackos have been pointing out these small changes for years, now Mr. Huether wants to allocate tax money and resources to his specific lake because his fix are gone?
