Sioux Falls City Council Discusses Extending Mask Mandate The great debate on whether to once again extend the Sioux Falls mask mandate had its first reading Tuesday night. Sioux Falls City Council members gathered together to share their thoughts and get the thoughts and concerns of the public throughout the Sioux Empire. As expected, several members of the community showed up to the Tuesday night meeting at Carnegie Town Hall to let their voices be heard. Dakota News Now reports, there was spirited discussion. By the sounds of it, a large number of people in attendance were against extending the mandate.
