RAPID CITY, SD—Rapid City experienced its second-highest month ever for building permit valuation in May, issuing 337 permits with a combined total valuation of more than $112.8 million ($112,847,038).
May's valuation total shattered the previous record for permit valuation in the month of May, set last year when permits were valued at $44.4 million. In addition, last month's issuance of 337 building permits was the best month for permits issued since July 2021.
The only month with a permit valuation total higher than last month was in November 2019 when the City issued 362 permits with a combined valuation total of $123.4 million. In November 2019, the City issued the largest permit in the community's history for The Monument's Summit Arena.
For the year, the City has issued 1,188 building permits with a combined valuation total of $228 million, the highest January-to-May total in the city's history. By comparison, last year's January-to-May total stood at $174.3 million on its way to a record $393.5 million for the year in permit valuation.
"It was a very busy month for our staff in building services last month," said Community Development Director Vicki Fisher. "It's not uncommon to end each month with a handful of million-dollar plus permits but with eleven permits valued at more than one million dollars, including four that topped the five million dollar value, that's a great month."
