Mayor Jason Salamun joins Amy Rose to share a major update on Rapid City’s first Chick-fil-A, with the La Crosse Street location now ahead of schedule and expected to open in November. They discuss the city’s ongoing efforts to attract businesses like Costco and the long process behind bringing new retailers to Rapid City. Salamun also highlights progress on the regional sports complex after the fifth and final agreement was signed and construction officially kicked off. The conversation turns to Rapid City’s growing east side, where a new police precinct, Fire Station 9 and community park are moving forward on Homestead Street, along with 21 new positions planned to support the fire station. They also discuss the city’s $65 million investment in streets over the next two years, expanded mill and overlay work, pothole repairs, weekly recycling service and the everyday concerns Rapid City residents bring to the mayor.
