PIERRE, S.D. (KELO) — It’s going to cost more to buy one of the housing or daycare units that inmates build at Mike Durfee State Prison in Springfield. The South Dakota Housing Development Authority board on Tuesday voted to raise prices for the various buildings offered for sale through the Governor’s House program. A two-bedroom home will rise from the current $75,900 to $86,000, while a three-bedroom model will increase from the current $89,900 to $96,000.
