Jamestown (CSi) Jamestown Mayor Dwaine Heinrich says the city faces the possible shortage of show removal workers to operate equipment this winter.

The mayor asks residents that have a commercial drivers license if they can operate those trucks or other heavy equipment to consider helping each other concerning snow removal, and pick up some extra cash.

He added any assistance residents can provide to their neighbors and friends would be appreciated.

The National Weather Service has issued a winter storm watch for parts of western and central North Dakota for Wednesday night through Friday morning.

In other business, the City council heard the first reading of an ordinance to amend the district map to change the zoning of a general multiple dwelling district to a local commercial district where Dollar General plans to locate at 424 4th Avenue Northeast.
