Jamestown  (CSi)  The Stutsman County Park Board in Special Session, Friday, granted a lease to Tom Schultz, to operate the campground at Pelican Point at Jamestown Reservoir for 15 years.  The vote in favor was 5-2 with members Joan Morris and Steve Cichos voting  in opposition.

Previously, Dean and Wanda Albers  were unable to reach an agreement to renew the lease.

Under the new agreement, Schultz will pay $1 per year and assumes previously paid county costs to include pumping and maintaining the wastewater tanks around the campground. Schultz assumes responsibility for minor repair expenses with the county park board picking up  major expenses like new roofs on buildings.
