BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s Legislature is headed down the session’s home stretch.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 But lawmakers first must find consensus on a host of spending plans and other last-minute measures before the state constitution’s 80-day limit is imposed.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Monday is Day 66.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 North Dakota’s House and Senate have worked through several contentious measures this session, including expanding places where concealed-carry permit holders can pack heat. Lawmakers also have shot down a bill that would have prohibited discrimination based on sexual orientation.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Legislature also has hammered through some seemingly lesser legislation like rejecting a measure that would have given North Dakotans a nine-day head start over nonresidents to trap muskrats.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Both chambers still have dozen measures to work through, including all remaining two-year budget bills for state agencies, programs and the Legislature itself.

\u00a0FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A judge says a 69-year-old man convicted of running an illegal bookmaking operation in North Dakota must serve an additional four months in prison on top of a current sentence he is serving in Minnesota.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Gerald Greenfield, of Bloomington, Minnesota, pleaded guilty in January to interstate transmittal of wagering information and conspiracy to commit money laundering.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Greenfield is serving a 68-month prison term in Minnesota, including 50 months on money laundering conviction and 18 months because he walked away from a federal prison camp in Duluth.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Prosecutors asked that Greenfield receive an additional 27 months on the North Dakota charges. Greenfield’s lawyer said the Minnesota sentence should be sufficient.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 U.S. District Judge Ralph Erickson tacked on an additional four months and ordered Greenfield to pay back $250,000.<\/p>\n

\u00a0WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) – A Swiss-based company planning a $500 million development on Williston’s outskirts likely will need to get a building permit from the city rather than the county.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The\u00a0 city has notified Williams County that it plans to exercise its 1-mile extraterritorial jurisdiction. That means the Williston Crossing project proposed by the international real estate company Stropiq will fall under city jurisdiction.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Williston Mayor Howard Klug earlier said he wished Stropiq would have chosen a site within city limits for its project. But he says the move to exercise extraterritorial jurisdiction isn’t aimed at just that project. He says it’s about the long-term future of the city.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Williams County Chairman David Montgomery and Stropiq co-founder Terry Olin say they hope the Williston Crossing project is treated fairly.<\/p>\n
