UPDATE: The Sioux Falls City Council has deferred discussion on a funding issue with the new downtown parking ramp.

The council was set to discuss adding an additional $1.5 million to the project in Tuesday night's meeting, but several councilors voiced concerns they did not have enough time to review information regarding the proposal.

In a 5-3 vote, the council decided to delay discussion on the proposal until next week's meeting.

Original story:

The parking ramp for Downtown Sioux Falls appears to have hit another snag.

City leaders are asking for another one-point-five million dollars to finish the project.

The initial budget for the construction project appears to have been exhausted.

$20.6 million dollars were allocated for the construction of a seven-story ramp that was supposed to anchor an additional eight stories of commercial building space.

A resolution to amend the funding will be discussed during Tuesday's city council meeting.
