Rapid City MPO

Rapid City, S.D. – The City of Rapid City invites the public to participate in an online public meeting open house for the draft Rapid City Comprehensive Safety Action Plan, available from Thursday, November 6, 2025, through Wednesday, November 26, 2025. The online public meeting open house can be accessed at www.rcsafestreets.com/safetyplan. The goal of this online public meeting open house is to share the draft Safety Action Plan with the community and collect public comments and questions for the project team. This input will help the project team to document key community needs and interests which may be addressed in the final Rapid City Comprehensive Safety Action Plan. For further information regarding the project or draft Safety Action Plan, contact Jon Markt with HDR Engineering, Inc. at jonathan.markt@hdrinc.com or by phone at (402) 399-1080. Written comments will be accepted via the project website or by email to jonathan.markt@hdrinc.com until Wednesday, November 26, 2025.

Join us to review and comment on the Draft Comprehensive Plan! Thursday’s open house is scheduled from 4-6 p.m. at the Dahl Arts Center, 713 Seventh Street. Community members unable to attend the event can share online survey comments at https://plan.konveio.com/rapid-city-draft-comprehensive-plan-open-house-boards. Additionally, community members can review the full draft Plan online at https://plan.konveio.com/rapid-city-draft-comprehensive-plan. The survey will remain active through next Tuesday (September 9) and the current version of the draft Plan will remain available online for review through September 12. The draft Plan will then be revised and strengthened based on community feedback before being presented for final review and adoption by the Rapid City Planning Commission and Rapid City Council later this month and October. The 2025 Rapid City Comprehensive Plan will serve as the official policy document to guide future growth and development in Rapid City and shape the shared vision for the future of our community. The draft Plan focuses on topics including growth and land use, housing, transportation, public services and facilities, education, recreation and natural resources, arts and culture, and the economy. The Plan consists of goals, policies, and actions across each of the topic areas to provide long-term direction, guidelines to inform decision makers, and strategies to achieve the vision and desired outcomes of the community.
