County Commissioner, Dan Klimisch, talks about the most contentious part they had to consider. In his comments Klimisch states that the setback distance was the most concerning for everyone. The county set  the distance at 1 mile. While most asked that this distance be between 2 to 5 miles, Klimisch indicated the larger setback distance would likely fail to pass.


Tuesday night, the Yankton County Commission met in front of another large crowd that spilled out into the hallway.
