There is a newer version of the South Dakota Codified Laws
2011 South Dakota Code
Title 9 MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT
Chapter 51. Municipal Parking Facilities
§9-51-1 Legislative findings and policy.
SD Codified L § 9-51-1 (through 2011) What's This?
9-51-1. Legislative findings and policy. It is hereby declared that the free circulation of traffic through the streets of any municipality is necessary to the health, safety, and general welfare of the public; that the greatly increased use by the public of motor vehicles and the parking of such vehicles in the streets and the lack of adequate off-street parking facilities creates congestion, obstructs the free circulation of traffic, diminishes property values and endangers the health, safety, and general welfare of the public; that the provision of conveniently located automobile parking facilities is therefore necessary to the exercise of the police power in the regulation and control of traffic and to alleviate such conditions, and the establishment of automobile parking facilities including off-street parking facilities is deemed to be a proper public or municipal purpose.
