Details
Join Elevate Rapid City for the official reveal of the 2026 Legislative Scorecard, your definitive guide to how our local legislators voted on the issues that matter most to business growth and community prosperity. Whether you're a longtime Elevate investor, a business owner, or a community member who wants to understand how this session's outcomes affect everyday life in the Black Hills, this breakfast is for you.
This year's legislative session tackled some of the most consequential issues facing the Rapid City region: airport funding, property taxes, Tax Increment Financing (TIFs), and the rise of data centers. The decisions made in Pierre will shape our infrastructure, our tax climate, and our economic future for years to come.
Hear directly from Elevate's Senior Public Policy Director, Garth Wadsworth, and representatives from the South Dakota Chamber of Commerce as they break down what passed, what failed, and what's next.
