Jamestown (CSi) The Jamestown\/Stutsman Development Corporation (JSDC) will participate in the Flex Pace Affordable Housing Program.<\/p>\n

Meeting Monday, board approved on a 9-2 vote, with Mark Klose and Chris Rathjen dissenting.<\/p>\n

Final approval to participate in the program goes on to the Jamestown City Council and the Stutsman County Commission for review.<\/p>\n

The JSDC will provide incentives for up to 60 affordable housing units per year in Stutsman County. Each city or township must provide a definition of what constitutes affordable housing in its community.<\/p>\n

The city or township would provide about $10,000 in infrastructure.<\/p>\n

JSDC, CEO, Connie Ova told the board, that the proposed CHS nitrogen fertilizer plant construction plans include driving pilings for foundations this winter.<\/p>\n

She adds if that work can not be started this fall, it may mean the project could be canceled.<\/p>\n

CHS is looking for about $100 million in cost reductions for the project.<\/p>\n

Carrington (CSi) The results of the June 10, 2014 election in Foster County will stand.<\/p>\n

On Monday the county canvassing board re-canvassed the results following last week\u2019s recount that falsely showed 300 ballots were missing.<\/p>\n

County Auditor Teresa Risovi says the 300 extra ballots that were electronically reported to the secretary of state\u2019s office were due to 100 test ballots that had been run through the three ES&S M100 voting machines prior to the election, as required by law. Risovi said the machine had a display that showed the test ballots had been zeroed out, but they remained on the machines\u2019 memory cards.<\/p>\n

In communications between Foster County State\u2019s Attorney Paul Murphy and Secretary of State Al Jaeger, Jaeger confirms Risovi\u2019s theory about the test ballots.<\/p>\n

The recount was demanded by Foster County Commission candidate Donnie Theis following an earlier re-canvassing of the June 10 election on July 28.<\/p>\n

Six candidates ran for four spots on the November ballot with the top four vote-getters going on to race at large for the two commission seats up for grabs.<\/p>\n

Theis had finished in fifth place behind the current Commission Chairman Paul Straley by 15 votes. The canvassing board threw out two ballots it had previously accepted, which shortened Straley\u2019s lead to 13 votes and made the difference in the race exactly 2 percent, entitling Theis to demand a recount at his own expense.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Kiefer pleaded guilty last year to five counts of misdemeanor animal cruelty and four counts of overworking, mistreating or abandoning animals. He was sentenced to six months in custody and two years of probation.

\u00a0\u00a0MINOT, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota Sens. Heidi Heitkamp and John Hoeven are asking the head of Canadian Pacific Railway to improve agriculture shipping delays before harvest.
\n\u00a0

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Heitkamp says the railway must commit to decreasing the backlog and wait times. She says the wait times for CP cars increased between June and August and the company has been reluctant to give information about the delays.

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The North Dakota Information Technology Department has moved into a $17 million building in north Bismarck, putting its staff under one roof.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Employees had been spread among five Bismarck locations, including the state Capitol. The move to the new 85,000-square-foot facility frees up about 10,000 square feet of space inside the Capitol that will be used by other agencies.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Department Chief Information Officer Mike Ressler says \u00a0it took about three weeks to move the more than 300 staff from the five locations. The effort wrapped up late last week.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Ressler says having all of the workers in one facility should make operations more efficient.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 BALTIMORE (AP) – Baltimore Orioles third baseman Manny Machado had to be helped off the field after spraining his right knee in last night’s 11-3 rout of the New York Yankees. Machado twisted his knee while hitting a broken-bat grounder to shortstop in the third inning. The Orioles said Machado would be examined again today.<\/p>\n

New York Yankees right-hander Michael Pineda (pih-NAY’-dah) will come off the disabled list Wednesday and make his first start since his suspension for using pine tar on the mound. Pineda has been on the DL since May 6 with a right shoulder muscle injury, and hasn’t pitched since he was ejected from a game against Boston on April 23. He received a 10-game suspension from Major League Baseball for “possessing a foreign substance on his person.”<\/p>\n

NBA…<\/p>\n

\u00a0 TORONTO (AP) – No.1 NBA draft pick Andrew Wiggins deflected questions yesterday about precisely where he’ll be playing once training camp begins. Cleveland reportedly reached an agreement in principle to send Wiggins, Anthony Bennett and a first-round pick to Minnesota for All-Star forward Kevin Love last week. That deal would leave the rookie swingman playing for a rebuilding squad in the Western Conference.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 CANANDAIGUA, N.Y. (AP) – Officials continue to investigate the accident Saturday night that claimed the life of a young dirt track driver.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Kevin Ward Jr. made the fatal mistake of getting out of his car during the race and walking on the track after hitting the wall. He was apparently trying to confront the man who he had made contact with before hitting the wall, NASCAR veteran Tony Stewart.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Ward was wearing all black on a dimly lit track. After one car moved to avoid hitting him, Stewart wasn’t able to avoid the 20-year old and Ward was hit. According to video and witness accounts, Ward’s body was sucked underneath the car and hurtled through the air before landing on his back as fans looked on in horror.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Ontario County Sheriff Philip Povero said that criminal charges have not been ruled out, but that investigators don’t have any evidence at this point in the investigation to support criminal intent. Povero said Ward died of blunt force trauma when he was hit by the car.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 He said Monday that there were no plans “at this time” to talk to Stewart again and that there is no timetable as to when the investigation will conclude.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 FERGUSON, Mo. (AP) – It was a second night of unrest in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson, Missouri, following the weekend shooting death of an unarmed black teen. Monday night, police in riot gear fired tear gas into a crowd of protesters and made several arrests. The night before, dozens of people were arrested as some people began looting and vandalizing businesses. At a forum in the city last night, national NAACP President Cornell William Brooks told those involved in the unrest, “to steal, to loot, to burn down your neighborhood – this does not require courage.”

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 CAIRO (AP) – A temporary Israel-Hamas truce is holding for a second day today as marathon, indirect negotiations on a lasting cease-fire and a long-term solution for the battered Gaza Strip resume in Cairo. There could be marathon discussions today.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 CAIRO (AP) – Human Rights Watch says last summer’s mass killings in Egypt that left hundreds dead likely amount to crimes against humanity. Today’s report by the New York-based group calls for an inquiry into what role top military officials played in breaking up protests that followed the ouster of elected President Mohammed Morsi. Former military chief, Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi (AHB’-del fat-AH’ el-SEE’-see), is now Egypt’s president. Yesterday, Human Rights Watch was prevented from entering Egypt to launch the report.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 ANKARA, Turkey (AP) – A Turkish official says up to nine people are trapped in a collapsed mine in the northern part of the country. The official says the rescue operation was delayed because authorities weren’t told about the collapse for several hours. But he says the miners are alive and are trapped in an area close to the exit. Today’s accident happened just months after more than 300 miners were killed in Turkey’s worst mining disaster.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
