Lyman County Commissioners approve to hire Beegle as Deputy Director of Equalization

COMMISSIONER’S PROCEEDINGS

REGULAR SESSIONJuly 21, 2020

The Lyman County Commissioners met in regular session in the Conference Room in the Courthouse at Kennebec, South Dakota, July 21, 2020, at 8:30 a.m. with the following members present: Chairman Bill Lengkeek, Leslie Reuer, Zane Reis, Ryan Huffman, Jared Schelske and Auditor Deb Halverson. Also present: Kalli Houchin, Steve Manger, and Steve Smith.

CALL TO ORDER: Chairman Lengkeek called the meeting to order with the pledge to the flag.

FIREARMS DISCUSSION: States Attorney Steve Smith and Sheriff Steve Manger met with the commissioners to discuss options for the Lyman County Courthouse given that SDCL 22-14-24 (6), that took effect July 1, 2020, now gives county employees the ability to carry firearms within the courthouse. Smith discussed the liability and safety concerns that he sees with allowing employees to carry firearms and Manger added some potential issues that could arise because employees are not trained with a firearm to handle a potential situation properly. Possible alternatives would be for the commission to ban employees from carrying firearms in the courthouse or to add requirements such as obtaining an Enhanced Carry Permit that would require classroom and shooting training. The commissioners took the information under advisement and would like feedback from current employees before making a decision at the next meeting. Smith and Manger left the meeting.
