to obtain a permit before installingdrainage tile.

The 37 permits accounted for299,950 feet of drainage tile valuedat $539,900.

One large project that could bea big boost to Yankton County in2013 is the grain facility being pro-posed by Dakota Plains Ag Centerfor Napa Junction. Officials havesaid the value of that developmentwould be approximately $30million.

In other business Tuesday, the

commission agreed to allow a para-medic from the Yankton CountyEMS to join and train with theYankton Police Department’s SWATteam.

Commissioner Garry Mooresaid he would like to have twoparamedics trained to providesome redundancy if one can’t makea call, but Lt. Mike Burgeson of theSWAT team said purchasing equip-ment for two paramedics is not inhis budget for the year. A secondparamedic will likely be asked tojoin next year, he added.

In a separate agenda item, Yank-ton County EMS AdministratorSteve Hawkins asked the commis-sion for guidance on a policy forcharging organizations for havingan ambulance and crew on site for

an event. Commissioners felt theservice should be provided for freeto entities that have a 501(c)(3)designation.

Hawkins also informed the com-mission that his departmentfielded 1,702 calls in 2012, whichwas about 20 calls shy of a record.

deficit is a stronger economic re-covery, Thune said.

“When people are working, peo-ple are investing, they are makingmore money, they are paying moretaxes and government revenues goup,” he said. “Getting growth backinto our economy along the linesof more historic patterns, I think, isincredibly important.”

A tax code with fewer loopholesand special interest provisionswould be a step in the right direc-tion, according to the senator.

“If we were to do something tosimplify the tax code, to make itmore fair, more clear and lower therates,” Thune said, “I think it would

unleash a period of economicgrowth in this country unlike any-thing we’ve seen in a long time.”

Thune noted that productivenegotiations between members ofboth parties will be needed toenact these and other neededchanges. He also said the greatestresponsibility for the political sys-tem’s future success or failure lieswith President Obama.

“There is only one Americanamong 307 million Americans whocan sign a bill into law, and that’sthe President of the United States,”Thune said. “We have one com-mander in chief, one individual, Ithink, who is capable of providingthe leadership that is necessary toget things done. It’s going to takethat to get Congress — memberson both sides — to work together. Ihope the president will recognizewhat’s at stake and really get him-self into these discussions. It’s

going to take, obviously, some giveand take on both sides.”

The senator indicated that thenecessary action that will soon beneeded to on the nation’s debtlimit will be such an opportunity.

“Given the uncertainty that wejust went through in December,and even given the great need forthe fiscal reform that you just de-scribed, aren’t we risking hurtingthe economy by tying these re-forms to the debt ceiling in-crease?” Barry Vickrey asked.

“If you look historically at leastin the last three decades, everymajor deficit reduction packagehas occurred around the debt ceil-ing increase,”’ Thune replied.“There’s a precedent we’re dealingwith here. In August 2011, the prin-ciple we operated on was for everydollar increase in the debt ceiling,they ought to get a dollar of spend-ing reductions or government re-

forms that would score a savingsin the budget to actually deal withthe debt.”

He told the Vermillion crowdthat to get people to the negotiat-ing table, “you have to have incen-tives. And there isn’t a lot ofincentive right now, in my view,with the president on the spendingside unless there’s something hewants.

“He’s saying you can’t hold thedebt limit hostage to get govern-ment spending reforms, but if youdon’t do it there, you might be ableto do it on a continuing resolu-tion,” Thune said. “But there’s verylittle incentive then for the presi-dent to do anything serious on en-titlement programs. I would hopethat we not look at this as an ob-stacle but as an opportunity to tryto do something really meaningfulin the area of deficit reduction.”
