Jamestown, ND (KCSi-T.V. News) — The Jamestown City Council’s Finance and Legal, Building Planning, and Zoning, and Civic Center and Promotion Committees met Wednesday afternoon (Oct 23, 2012) at City Hall.\u00a0 Council Member Gumke was not present.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With Finance and Legal Business..<\/p>\n

The request from Leo and Kari Ness tabled from the October 1, 2012, City Council meeting, regarding interest in purchasing City Lots in Beverly Hills 6th Addition.<\/p>\n

Mayor Andersen said the committee did not have specific information for the meeting for consideration, as the memo from City Attorney Ken\u00a0Dalsted\u00a0arrived late Tuesday afternoon.<\/p>\n

The item will be moved to the Thursday committee meeting, after review of the memo from Dalsted.<\/p>\n

The committee then considered the request from William Mickelson for reconsideration of a license to operate a Taxi Service.<\/p>\n

Mayor Andersen said a background check raised concerns about Mickelson,<\/p>\n

and his license request was denied.<\/p>\n

At Tuesday\u2019s meeting it was stated that the Aggravated Assault and Terrorizing charges against him were dismissed.<\/p>\n

He said he has custody of his daughter, and is employed in Jamestown.<\/p>\n

The Mayor said the city\u2019s previous concerns are no longer concerns, in light of the new information.<\/p>\n

He said the taxi service is proposed to be 24 hours.<\/p>\n

Mikelson said another person will be able to fill in driving if he unable to do so.<\/p>\n

He said he is not requesting a city subsidy.<\/p>\n

With reconsidering the previous denial of a taxi license, committee recommends granting the taxi license to Mikelson.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The committee discussed license and permit fee modifications and rate adjustments for the city utility funds, to be effective January 1, 2013.<\/p>\n

City Administrator Jeff Fuchs says the figures are the same as in the 2013 budget.<\/p>\n

He said the utility rates are adjusted annually, and the license and permit fees were last increased in 2009.<\/p>\n

Fuchs said Jamestown has a total of 25 liquor licenses of all types.<\/p>\n

Council Member Buchanan proposed that the license and permit fees should be higher, an average of 50 percent higher.<\/p>\n

Mayor Andersen said the proposed increases are appropriate.<\/p>\n

The committee recommends the proposed increases, which was opposed by Council Member Buchanan.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The committee recommends accepting of the 2011 City Audit, as prepared by Schauer & Associates, PC. The report is available on the city\u2019s web site.<\/p>\n

A presentation will be made at the November 5, 2012 City Council meeting.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Informational: Monthly departmental and financial reports were presented.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A property owner talked about water backups in his neighborhood,<\/p>\n

along 13th Avenue Southeast which he has asked the city for assistance with, concerning a curb cut installed by the city at his driveway.<\/p>\n

He said vehicles scrape on the curb when trying to use the driveway.<\/p>\n

Mayor Andersen said the committee will meet with the City Engineer, and the city’s legal council, \u00a0for more information, and possible solutions.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With Building Planning, and Zoning Committee Business:<\/p>\n

Informational: Planning Commission minutes of October 8, 2012 were presented.<\/p>\n

The committee considered the plat of Berndt’s Addition, a portion of Blocks 39, 40 & 47 and a portion of vacated 18th Avenue adjacent to Block 32 together with a portion of those unplatted lands within Government Lot 12 of Section 26, T140N, R64W, referred back to committee from the October 1, 2012, City Council meeting.<\/p>\n

Mayor Andersen said the plat does not comply with a city Ordinance because of a lack of a plan for water, and sewer, availability, and the road being able to be brought to grade.<\/p>\n

The City Attorney, City Administrator, City Engineer and City Planning Commission Chairman will meet to address issues before acting further on the plat.<\/p>\n

The committee recommends forwarding the plat to the November 5, 2012 City Council meeting without recommendation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Discussion\u00a0 concerning the draft ordinance amendment for Section 8, Appendix B, of the City Code as a result of the public input meeting previously held, was delayed, pending a draft of the City Attorney.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Civic Center and Promotion Committee:<\/p>\n

No items at this time.<\/p>\n

Committee Chairman Charlie Kourajian suggested a meeting be held soon concerning a contract, and funding of the Buffalo City Tourism Foundation.<\/p>\n

The meeting was shown live on CSi 67 followed by replays.<\/p>\n

\u00a0GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – State and local health officials are
\ninvestigating what they call a cluster of tuberculosis cases in
\nGrand Forks County.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The state Health Department has confirmed three cases of active
\nTB in the county – a man in his 20s and two men in their 40s.
\nOfficials are working to identify people the men might have exposed
\nto the contagious bacterial infection that usually attacks the
\nlungs.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Health Department TB specialist Dee Pritschet says TB cases are
\nnot common in North Dakota.<\/p>\n

There were eight confirmed cases last year, 11 in 2010, five in 2009 and three in 2008.<\/p>\n

The three cases in Grand Forks bring this year’s total to 14.<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s Supreme Court has upheld
\nthe conviction of a man who hired a hit man to kill his son-in-law.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Philip Gattuso (gah-TOO’-soh) was found beaten to death in his
\nFargo home three years ago.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Gattuso’s father-in-law, Gene Kirkpatrick of Jones, Okla., was
\nconvicted of conspiracy to commit murder. Authorities said
\nKirkpatrick didn’t want Gattuso, a dentist, raising his
\npreschool-aged granddaughter after Gattuso’s wife died, so he hired
\nMichael Nakvinda (nahk-VINH’-dah) to kill him.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Kirkpatrick said statements he made to police shouldn’t have
\nbeen used against him. He contended jurors got improper
\ninstructions and should have been allowed to consider a less
\nserious charge.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Supreme Court rejected those arguments Tuesday and affirmed
\nthe convictions.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Both Kirkpatrick and Nakvinda are serving life prison terms.<\/p>\n

KILLDEER, N.D. (AP) – Plans for mBISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Some people who bought or upgraded flood insurance and were not covered during last year’s Missouri River.
\nflooding may be covered for damages after all.<\/p>\n

Gov. Jack Dalrymple and the North Dakota congressional delegation
\nannounced Tuesday that the new five-year National Flood Insurance
\nProgram reauthorization bill changes the date the flood insurance
\nhad to be purchased retroactively.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The original cut-off date last year to purchase insurance had
\nbeen May 1, and many homeowners were deemed ineligible for coverage
\nbecause FEMA said the 30-day window to buy the insurance did not
\napply to last year’s flood.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The new bill changes the date to June 6, 2011, provided the
\nproperty was not damaged for 30 days after the purchase date.ore oil drilling near the Killdeer Mountains in western North Dakota are upsetting at least
\none area rancher and an American Indian tribe member.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The state Department of Mineral Resources Oil and Gas Division
\nis holding a hearing Wednesday in Bismarck on new drilling sites in
\nthe state, including some that are in the vicinity of the Killdeer
\nMountain Battlefield State Historic Site and also Medicine Hole, a
\ncave-like site in the mountains that has been part of Indian lore
\nfor decades.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Rancher Loren\u00a0says \u00a0he’s hired an attorney to fight new
\ndrilling.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Fort Berthold Community College instructor Delvin Driver Sr.
\nsays land in the Killdeer Mountains area is sacred to native
\npeople, and more oil drilling could interfere with religious
\nexperiences.<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – When North Dakota Attorney General Wayne
\nStenehjem was in the Legislature, he argued that the state’s ban on
\nElection Day campaigning was unconstitutional.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Now, Stenehjem is obliged to defend the law. Former North Dakota
\nstate Republican chairman Gary Emineth has filed a federal lawsuit
\nto overturn it. Emineth says it violates the free-speech rights of
\nNorth Dakotans.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Before Stenehjem was elected attorney general in 2000, he was a
\nRepublican state senator from Grand Forks and chairman of the
\nSenate Judiciary Committee.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 He backed legislation to repeal North Dakota’s ban on Election
\nDay campaigning because he thought it conflicted with U.S. Supreme
\nCourt decisions. The Legislature decided to keep the ban.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Stenehjem says it’s OK to regulate campaigning close to polling
\nplaces. But he says North Dakota’s ban is much broader.<\/p>\n

\nUnited States could soon overtake Saudi Arabia as the world’s
\nbiggest producer.<\/p>\n

Government and industry forecasts show U.S.
\nproduction of oil and other liquid hydrocarbons is on track to rise
\n7 percent this year to an average of 10.9 million barrels per day.

\nunlock oil trapped between rocks.<\/p>\n
