MITCHELL, S.D. (MITCHELLNOW)  The Mitchell City Council on Monday night approved a plat which will considerably change the layout of a new housing development adjacent to Avera Queen of Peace Hospital in Mitchell.  Ridgeview on Foster leaders are seeking to vacate a portion of North Wallace Street in the 21-acre housing development and install a road leading into the development that’s closer to Foster Street. The proposal is spurred by a potential lawsuit by a resident in the area who says the original plan violates a city ordinance regarding city block lengths.  City Planner Mark Jeniges:

The council voted unanimously to approve the change to the development.
