KONENKAMP, Justice.

[¶ 1.] Pennington County sought approval to change its former juvenile detention center into a jail-work release facility. Rapid City's Planning Commission and Common Council disapproved the change in use. Invoking SDCL 11-6-21, the county overruled the city and proceeded with the project. Rapid City brought suit. The circuit court held that SDCL 11-6-21 authorized the county to proceed with the project without the city's approval.
