Update….
Valley City (CSi) While three employee’s tested positive for COVID-19 at the Sheyenne Care Center in Valley City in the past week, CEO Craig Christianson says as no residents tested positive the state restored full visitation to the facility on Monday.
Valley City (NDHP) The North Dakota Highway Patrol reports, a woman was seriously injured in a two vehicle crash on I-94 ten miles west of Valley City about 4 o’clock on Monday.
The report says, a van driven by the woman crashed into a semi in the eastbound lane near mile marker 280.
She was taken to a Fargo hospital for treatment of her injuries. Her condition has not been released. The semi driver was not seriously injured in the crash. The cause of the crash is under investigation.
Assisting at the scene were: The Sanborn and Valley City Fire & Rescue Squad, the Barnes County Sheriff’s Office, and Barnes County ambulance.
Jamestown (CSi) Jamestown Mayor Dwaine Heinrich has reached mid-term of his four year term, and on Monday’s Wayne Byers Show on CSi Cable 2, he looked back on the first two years, and ahead to the next two years.
He said when he took office, in 2018 his concern was, and continues to be city finances and budgeting…spending versus income. That includes depletion of the General Fund’s Reserves.
He pointed out that property taxes were increased, as 100 percent of property taxes fund the police and fire department and municipal court budgets. He said at that time residents were generally accepting of the increase.
The city currently is in meetings for the 2021 budget, and among concerns make sure the city budget has two million dollars in reserves. He added that the city still has no information at this time as to how much the city will receive in state funding. He added that state finances have collapsed, pointing to the uncertainty of upcoming state revenues. He said in the preliminary 2021 city budget city employees will not receive a pay raise, in order to hold down on city spending.
One or two more budget meetings are expected to be held in July.
He said Jamestown residents have been understanding concerning issues of dealing with flood preparations and blizzards and cooperating to slow the spread of COVID-19, and businesses support limited hours of operations, and changes on how they serve their patrons.
Looking ahead he said, the new plant development at Spiritwood Energy Park, and other economic development plans will help Jamestown move forward.
Plans continue with downtown development, with Eagle Flats housing and the Jamestown Airport Business Park, the location for the National Guard Armory.
Jamestown (CSi) Jamestown Mayor Dwaine Heinrich has received some public comments on the NDDOT turning off the five Traffic signals on First Avenue in Jamestown.
On Monday’s Wayne Byers Shown on CSi Cable 2, he said, comments have included liking to drive through downtown on with fewer traffic red lights on First Avenue. Heinrich said he would have liked to have seen the traffic light still operational at the intersection with at 5th Street and First Avenue, North leading to Highway 20.
He also said he wanted to seen temporary striping on the pavement indicated where the Road Diet plans make lane changes including turning lanes.
He reiterated that the Road Diet plans were developed by the North Dakota Department of Transportation, as First Avenue is part of Highway 281/52, under control of the NDDOT, with the City of Jamestown having little if any influence on the project’s design or implementation.
He said at this point in the project that it would cost the city more dollars to halt the project than implement it, with NDDOT funding.
The traffic lights were made inoperable on June 1, 2020, except at the intersection of First Avenue South, and 3rd Street, for a 90 day period. After the 90 days the NDDOT will review results of the traffic flows/accidents, and make a final decision on whether to implement the Road Diet project.
A readers poll on the disabling the traffic signals is available at CSiNewsNow.com

FARGO, N.D. (AP) — A judge has ordered the Dakota Access pipeline shut down for additional environmental review more than three years after it began pumping oil. The ruling Monday hands a victory to the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and delivers a blow to President Donald Trump’s efforts to weaken public health and environmental protections his administration views as obstacles to businesses. U.S. District Judge James Boasberg in Washington, D.C., wrote that he was “mindful of the disruption” that shutting down the pipeline would cause, but that it must be done within 30 days. Pipeline owner Energy Transfer says it will ask a court to halt the order.
BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — The U.S. Supreme Court has handed another blow to the disputed Keystone XL pipeline from Canada by keeping in place a lower court ruling that blocked a key permit for the project. However, Monday’s order also put on hold the lower court ruling as it pertains to other oil and gas pipelines across the nation. The Trump administration had argued the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permit program that has been in the place since the 1970s was functioning properly when it was cancelled by a Montana judge in April. Critics argued the program allows pipeline companies to skirt responsibility for damage to water bodies.
FARGO, N.D. (AP) — A group looking to reform voting redistricting rules in North Dakota says it has collected enough signatures to get the proposed constitutional amendment on the ballot in November. Officials with North Dakota Voters First said Monday they submitted 36,708 signatures to Secretary of State Al Jaeger’s office. The group must obtain nearly 27,000 valid signatures from North Dakota voters to qualify for the ballot. The leader of the group, Carol Sawicki, of Fargo, said the effort was challenging because volunteers were forced to implement social distancing and safety protocols because of the coronavirus pandemic. A federal judge refused to waive the state’s ban on gathering electronic signatures for a ballot measure.

NHL-VIRUS OUTBREAK
NHL, players’ union announce plan to resume play on Aug. 1
UNDATED (AP) — The National Hockey League and NHL Players’ Association have reached a tentative agreement to return to play this season and extend their collective bargaining agreement by four years.
Training camps would open July 13 and games would resume Aug. 1 if approved by the league’s board of governors and players’ executive committee and full membership.
The NHL is going straight to the playoffs with 24 teams resuming play. Those teams will travel to one of two “hub” cities July 26. A person with direct knowledge of the agreements told The Associated Press that the NHL has selected Toronto and Edmonton, Alberta, to be the hub cities in hosting the qualifying round and at least first two playoff rounds.
MLB-TESTING DELAYS
Nationals, Astros cancel workouts
WASHINGTON (AP) — Baseball’s two World Series finalists canceled workouts because of coronavirus testing delays.
The Washington Nationals and Houston Astros called off training camp practices Monday after not receiving test results from Friday.
The St. Louis Cardinals also scrubbed their scheduled workout for similar reasons. General manager Mike Rizzo of the champion Nationals said it’s not safe to continue with camp without accurate and timely testing. Rizzo called on Major League Baseball to work quickly to resolve issues with its lab to keep the season from being at risk.
Astros GM James Click speculated the July 4th holiday weekend contributed to the delay. MLB said it addressed delays caused by the holiday weekend and doesn’t expect them to continue.
MLB-BRAVES-MARKAKIS
Markakis won’t play this year
ATLANTA (AP) — Atlanta Braves veteran outfielder Nick Markakis has become the latest player to opt out of the 2020 season due to increased concerns about the coronavirus pandemic.
Markakis is the second Atlanta veteran in two days to announce plans to sit out the 60-game season, following right-hander Félix Hernández.
The 36-year-old Markakis says he was uneasy about playing the season without fans and then was swayed by his telephone conversation with teammate Freddie Freeman, who has tested positive for COVID-19 and has fever and other symptoms.
Dodgers pitcher David Price, Washington infielder Ryan Zimmerman and Colorado outfielder Ian Desmond are among other players who have opted out.
MLB-RANGERS-GALLO
Rangers’ Gallo tests positive
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — All-Star slugger Joey Gallo has tested positive for the coronavirus and is missing the Texas Rangers’ summer camp. The outfielder has yet to show any symptoms of COVID-19.
Gallo had been among Rangers players who worked out for several weeks at their new ballpark before his positive test. Rangers general manager Jon Daniels says Gallo has had multiple tests, including one that came back negative. An initial test June 27 was positive, followed by a negative test and then another positive result Sunday.
Gallo is isolating at his Dallas apartment and away from teammates. Daniels says the teammates Gallo was around have tested negative.
— Phillies ace Aaron Nola reported to camp on Monday after waiting a few extra days because he was in contact with someone who tested positive for the coronavirus. The Phillies have had seven players and five staff members test positive for the virus. None has been identified. Nola threw a bullpen session upon arriving and would likely start Philadelphia’s season opener later this month if he’s ready. Nola finished third in NL Cy Young Award voting in 2018 when he was 17-6 with a 2.37 ERA. He was 12-7 with a 3.87 ERA last year.
UNDATED (AP) — The PGA Tour and the Memorial have scrapped state-approved plans to have limited spectators next week in Ohio.
The Memorial was scheduled to be the first tournament with spectators since golf return from the COVID-19 pandemic-caused shutdown. Republican Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine approved a plan for there to be 20% capacity at Muirfield Village. The tour said rapidly changing dynamics of the pandemic caused that to change.
PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan says golf needs to stay focused on health and safety. Muirfield Village is hosting back-to-back events. The Workday Charity Open this week was not planning on having fans.
NFL-CHIEFS-MAHOMES
Chiefs, Mahomes agree to 10-year, $503 million extension
The Kansas City Chiefs made sure they’ll have Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes around as long as possible. Mahomes agreed to a 10-year extension worth up to $503 million, according to his agency, Steinberg Sports. The deal is worth $477 million in guarantee mechanisms and includes a no-trade clause and opt-out clauses if guarantee mechanisms aren’t met.
It’s the richest contract in professional sports history, surpassing Mike Trout’s $426.5 million deal with the Los Angeles Angels.The Chiefs had the 2018 NFL MVP under contract for the next two seasons but that wasn’t nearly enough.
The contract extension starts in 2022 when the NFL salary cap is projected to be $227.5 million. However, that number could be lower depending on revenue losses due to the cornonavirus pandemic and the possibility any games played this season won’t have fans.
In other NFL moves:
The San Francisco 49ers signed cornerback Jamar Taylor to a one-year contract. San Francisco cleared room on the roster by waiving cornerback Teez Tabor with a non-football injury designation. The 29-year-old Taylor appeared in 12 combined games for Atlanta and Seattle last season.
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is criticizing NASCAR for banning the Confederate flag at its races and is going after its only Black driver.
After a weekend spent stoking division, Trump wrongly accused Bubba Wallace of perpetrating “a hoax” after one of his crew members discovered a rope shaped like a noose in a garage stall. Federal authorities ruled last month that the rope had been hanging there since at least last October and was not a hate crime.
Trump is asking whether Wallace has “apologized to all of those great NASCAR drivers & officials who came to his aid.”
NFL-REDSKINS NAME
Native American groups ask NFL to force Redskins name change
WASHINGTON (AP) — More than a dozen Native American leaders and organizations have sent a letter to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell calling for the league to force Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder to change the team name immediately.
The letter was signed by 15 Native American advocates and obtained by The Associated Press. It demands the team and the NFL cease the use of Native American names, imagery and logos — with specific importance put on Washington, which last week launched what the team called a “ thorough review ” of its name.
The letter was delivered on the same day that President Donald Trump voiced his opposition to any name change by the team. Several team sponsors have come out in favor of change recently and Snyder showed his first indication of willingness to do so amid a nationwide movement to erase racially insensitive symbols.
In world and national news…
WASHINGTON (AP) — As much as $273 million in federal coronavirus aid was awarded to more than 100 companies that are owned or operated by major donors to President Donald Trump’s election efforts. That’s according to an Associated Press analysis of government data that was released Monday. Many of the Trump-connected businesses were among the first to be approved for a loan in early April. All told, the Trump supporters who run these companies have collectively contributed at least $11.1 million since May 2015 to committees supporting Trump. Each donor gave at least $20,000. Trump’s campaign calls the program a resounding success.
TOKYO (AP) — Global shares and U.S. futures are mostly lower as expanding coronavirus outbreaks dim hopes for a speedy recovery. Benchmarks were falling in France, Germany and Britain in early Tuesday trading. Shares fell in Tokyo, Seoul and Hong Kong, while the Shanghai Composite index advanced. Profit-taking erased much of an initial rise for Asian benchmarks after a rally overnight on Wall Street, helped by buying of technology shares. The fallout from the pandemic has sent financial earnings plunging at many Asian companies, including giant Japanese exporters like Toyota Motor Corp.
BRUSSELS (AP) — The European Union’s latest economic forecast projects that the bloc’s economy will contract further than expected because of the coronavirus pandemic. The EU executive Commission expects the 27-nation EU economy will contract by 8.3% this year, before growing 5.8% in 2021. In the previous forecasts released in May, when most of the continent was under lockdown, the bloc’s GDP was forecast to contract by about 7.5% this year, and to bounce back by 6% in 2021. The European Commission said the impact on economic activity in 2020 will be worse than expected because “the lifting of lockdown measures is proceeding at a more gradual pace than assumed in our Spring forecast.”
ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — Turkey’s state-run news agency says authorities have foiled an attempt to smuggle 276 migrants to Europe on board a ship, and detained eight suspected smugglers. Anadolu Agency reported that police and coast guard teams acted on a tipoff and carried out a raid on the ship that docked near the coast of Narlidere, close to the Aegean coastal city of Izmir. The boat was preparing to sail Tuesday with the 276 migrants, including 46 women and 59 children, on board. The report said the migrants were from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Syria, Somalia and Iran. Turkey is a main crossing point for migrants trying to reach Europe via Greek islands across the Aegean.
NEW YORK (AP) — A white woman walking her dog who called the police during a videotaped dispute with a Black man in Central Park was charged Monday with filing a false report. In May, Amy Cooper drew widespread condemnation for calling 911 to report she was being threatened by “an African-American man” when bird watcher Christian Cooper appeared to keep his distance as he recorded her rant on his phone. District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. said in a statement on Monday that his office had charged Amy Cooper with falsely reporting the confrontation, a misdemeanor. She was ordered to appear in court on Oct. 14.
