Be angry at the Mayor, City Admin, Council and Meade County Commissioners. They could give two sh*ts about the Sturgis/Meade County Animal Shelter They cut the budget and have added other duties to the already over worked shelter employees. The “trails” take precedence over the animal shelter. 🤬🤬🤬 We need to be grateful our animal shelter gals havent walked like the other City employees.

What are the true stats on this? How many people have been injured or died?

What are the true stats on this? How many people have been injured or died?

The City of Sturgis has initiated its Safe Streets and Roads for All project, a community-driven initiative to develop a Transportation Safety Action Plan. This plan is designed to eliminate all fatal crashes and significantly reduce serious injury crashes across Sturgis’ transportation network, including streets, sidewalks, and trails.

Maybe Mayor/CA, council should have completed a SWOT, before they started cutting city staff, public services and raising taxes and utilities. After all, we have been told for years … Sturgis is BIG Business.

These were being sold during the 85th Sturgis Rally for $3,500 each. How much did Sturgis Citizens/Tax Payers make from each sale? It has the City of Sturgis Wing and 85th trademark logo engraved on it. Said 100 made. 3500 x 100 = $350,000 🤔 There should be a BIG Fat check coming to tax payers, maybe our water bills will decrease.

A BIGGER question is WHY is the City Admin using a dropbox? Dropbox is NOT certified by the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP), which makes it unsuitable for federal or government agencies when transferring government content between users. State and local governments often need to comply with specific regulations like FedRAMP, StateRAMP, CJIS, and HIPAA when handling sensitive data.
There is ALOT of shady business going on at City Hall .....
