\"\"Jamestown\u00a0 (CSi) \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 Alex Schweitzer, President of Schweitzer Consulting, LLC and former head of the North Dakota State Hospital System, has been selected as the President of the Bison World Fund, a non-profit corporation that will be used to structure an investment from the state\u2019s $8.3 billion legacy fund.<\/p>\n

Developer, Brian Lunde reports that upon his selection, Schweitzer announced that the Bison World Fund will unveil its master plan on November 30, 2021 to the public and to local and state elected officials.\u00a0 He says, \u201cWe are ready to start the project tomorrow.\u00a0 We just need the State Investment Board to quickly develop a process to\u00a0 review this opportunity under our new in-state investing law. We can start bidding key elements of this theme park now and break ground next Spring.\u201d<\/p>\n

Eide Bailly, one of the nation\u2019s leading accounting and business advisory firms, recently completed financial forecasts showing that the planned tourism attraction will be a highly profitable investment for the state.\u00a0 The five-year projected returns show an average annual return to the state of between $6.8 and $7.8 million or 11 %, exceeding the current average performance of the legacy fund.<\/p>\n

North Dakota\u2019s tourism director, Sara Otte Coleman said that Bison World will add a \u201cdestination attraction\u201d and \u201cwill put us on the map\u201d following her visit to the proposed site in August.\u00a0 A formal market study showed that the state-owned land adjacent to I-94 is a \u201chighly desirable location\u201d for a new tourism attraction due to its \u201ceasy access and excellent visibility.\u201d The study also found that the site enables the state to generate a profitable financial return on non-producing state land.<\/p>\n

Apogee Attractions, a leading national theme park design firm, recently completed the comprehensive master plan following a detailed planning process. The firm has also agreed to serve as the developer and operator of the facility upon investment from the legacy fund. Mr. Robert McTyre, founder of Apogee Attractions and former Walt Disney Attractions executive, will present the plans over a three-day period beginning November 30, 2021 in Jamestown.<\/p>\n

JSDC CEO, Connie Ova says, \u00a0 \u201cWe have completed all the ground work required to make this project a great investment for the people of North Dakota.\u00a0 The plans are done, the financial analysis is completed, the operator is in place and the investment structure has been formed.\u201d\u00a0 The JSDC board of directors earlier this year authorized up to $600,000 to complete the planning process for this state investment.<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 The North Dakota Supreme Court has rejected a petition by a Bismarck man convicted of killing his wife to alter the parole eligibility dates of his life sentence. Fifty-eight-year-old Russell Craig was sentenced to life after pleading guilty in the fatal stabbing of Pamela Craig-Johnson in 2006. The sentence included the possibility of parole. The Supreme Court has affirmed a district court\u2019s ruling that denied Craig\u2019s claim for post-conviction relief. The court said any issues that might allow such relief had already been brought up or should have been brought up at earlier proceedings.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 The North Dakota Game and Fish Department has unveiled a plan to bring landowners, conservation groups, scientists, and others together to restore native grasslands. The agency says North Dakota has lost more than 70% of its native prairie, which is essential for wildlife, pollinators, ranching operations and communities. The so-called Meadowlark Initiative allows producers to plant marginal cropland back to diverse native perennial grasslands for grazing. Funding is available to establish the grass and to install grazing infrastructure, such as fencing and water. Producers also are eligible to receive rental payments for the first three years as the land transitions from cropland to grazing land<\/p>\n

VCSU finished the season with an 8-2 overall record and a 6-2 mark in conference play. The Vikings took second in the NSAA standings. VCSU was ranked as high as No. 15 in the country at one point and finished the season receiving votes in the final NAIA Top 25 Coaches\u2019 Poll.<\/p>\n

All-Conference awards are voted on by the conference coaches.<\/p>\n

FIRST TEAM DEFENSE<\/strong><\/u>
\nDefensive linemen\u00a0Marshaun Jones<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Riley Gerhardt<\/a>, linebacker\u00a0Jahidi West<\/a>\u00a0and defensive back\u00a0Jerrod Williamson<\/a>\u00a0both earned First Team All-Conference for VCSU\u2019s defense.<\/p>\n

LAS VEGAS (AP) \u2014 Former Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs III received a stern talking-to from a Las Vegas judge but was allowed to remain on house arrest with a continuous alcohol monitor on one ankle and a GPS monitor on the other following a fatal crash he\u2019s accused of causing by driving drunk. The judge told Ruggs and his lawyers on Monday that she was \u201ccomfortable with a higher level of monitoring\u201d after a hearing about a delay in Ruggs providing a remote breath-alcohol test with a hand-held device Nov. 13. Ruggs faces felony DUI charges that carry mandatory prison time if he\u2019s convicted. The Raiders released Ruggs just hours after the crash.<\/p>\n

WAUKESHA, Wis. (AP) \u2014 Police say the suspect in a deadly Christmas parade crash in suburban Milwaukee was in a domestic disturbance just minutes before he killed five people and injured 48. Waukesha Police Chief Dan Thompson said Monday there is no evidence of terrorism in the event. He says police were preparing five charges of intentional homicide against Darrell Brooks, 39, of Milwaukee. Thompson identified those killed as four women ages 71, 52, 52 and 79, and an 81-year-old man. Members of the \u201cDancing Grannies\u201d club were among those killed, as was an employee of Citizens Bank..<\/p>\n

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) \u2014 Jurors have indicated they may be having trouble reaching a unanimous verdict on several allegations in the trial of white nationalists accused of conspiring to commit racially motivated violence at the deadly \u201cUnite the Right\u201d rally in Charlottesville. The federal jury is being asked to decide whether white supremacists and white nationalist organizations are responsible for violence during two days of demonstrations in 2017. Jurors will also decide if the defendants are liable for compensatory and punitive damages for nine people who filed a lawsuit after they were injured. On Monday, jurors asked Judge Norman Moon if they are unable to come to a unanimous decision on the lawsuit’s first three claims if they still need to decide on the other three claims.<\/p>\n

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (AP) \u2014 Disney has paused its policy requiring Florida-based employees to take the COVID-19 vaccine following new laws passed by the state\u2019s legislature last week that limit employers\u2019 power to require vaccinations. The company informed employees in a memo sent Friday that it paused the requirement due to the state legislature\u2019s action during a special session last week. The company also cited an appeal court\u2019s temporary delay of federal vaccination guidelines from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. The company said in a statement that more than 90% of Florida-based Disney employees are fully vaccinated. Employees who aren’t fully vaccinated will be required to wear face coverings and observe social distancing.<\/p>\n

NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 Target will no longer open its stores on Thanksgiving Day, making permanent a shift to the unofficial start of the holiday season that was suspended during the pandemic. To limit crowds in stores, retailers last year were forced to turn what had become a weekend shopping blitz into an extended event with holiday sales beginning as early as October. That forced shift turned out to be a good move. U.S. holiday sales in November and December rose 8.2% from the previous year, and the National Retail Federation predicts that this year could shatter that record, growing between 8.5% and 10.5%.<\/p>\n

(AP)\u00a0 Former President Barack Obama\u2019s foundation announced that it has received a $100 million donation from Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, which it says is the largest individual contribution it has received to date. Separately, New York University Langone Health said it has received a $166 million gift from Bezos and his family. The Obama foundation said in a statement that the gift from Bezos was also given in honor of John Lewis, the congressman and civil rights icon, who died last year. As part of the gift, the foundation said Bezos has asked for the plaza at the Obama Presidential Center, under construction in Chicago\u2019s South Side, to be named after Lewis.<\/p>\n

BRUNSWICK, Ga. (AP) \u2014 Closing arguments are underway in the trial of the three white men accused of killing Ahmaud Arbery last year in Georgia. A prosecutor told jurors Monday that the men charged in the fatal shooting had no cause to chase Arbery when they saw him in their neighborhood. She said they pursued him solely because he was \u201ca Black man running down their street.\u201d A defense attorney for the man who fired the fatal gunshots said Arbery was killed as he violently resisted a legal effort to detain him to answer questions about burglaries. The arguments unfolded before a disproportionately white jury after 10 days of testimony.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
