The Aberdeen City Council voted to authorize the city manager to sign a planning grant application for a proposed Rideline bus storage facility.
Rich Krockel, the city’s transportation director, told the council the grant application is South Dakota grant SD‑2025‑016 for $100,000. He said the grant requires a 75/25 split and that the city’s share would be $25,000. “Staff recommends approval,” Krockel said.
A motion to approve the request passed on a roll‑call vote; council members present voted aye and the motion carried. Krockel said the proposed facility would be located on the existing Rideline grounds near 205 (west of Dover Pass). Council discussion focused on the need for bus housing and the grant’s local match requirement.
The council’s action authorizes staff to execute the grant planning agreement; no construction appropriation was requested at this meeting.
