Jamestown, ND (KCSi-T.V. News Nov 16, 2012) \u2014 The Buffalo City Tourism Foundation, Executive Board met in monthly session, on Friday, and reviewed issues concerning the soon to expire contract with the City of Jamestown.<\/p>\n

Board representatives will attend Tuesday\u2019s (Nov 20, 2012) Jamestown City Council Civic Center and Promotion Committee meeting, where the committee will discuss with the board, the upcoming contract, any recommend any changes in a new contract.<\/p>\n

City Attorney Ken Dalsted is drafting language in the proposed agreement.<\/p>\n

At Friday\u2019s BCTF Executive Board meeting, the panel reviewed the existing contract, and received information from Jamestown City Attorney Ken Dalsted, from Jamestown Mayor Katie Andersen.<\/p>\n

In his opinion, Dalsted recommends the city not appoint Foundation Board members, as a requirement in a new contract.<\/p>\n

The opinion stated in part that, “If a city does not have a specific power granted to it by the legislature, that power does not exist.”<\/p>\n

Research of opinions by the North Dakota Attorney General and case law from other jurisdictions suggests that it is not appropriate for a city to do indirectly what it may not be able to do directly \u2013 control a corporation through the control of the appointment of its board of dirctors.<\/p>\n

Dalsted\u2019s opinion is, that because Buffalo City Tourism is an independent corportation, it is recommended that the entity be allowed to elect its own directors, as provided by law.<\/p>\n

The BCTF may, under the city\u2019s Enterprise Ordinance, make application to the city, making a request to perform services on behalf of the city.<\/p>\n

Under the Ordinance the city can provide funding to independent entities that essentially perform certain services that would otherwise be appropriate for a city to perform.<\/p>\n

With operating Tourism as a city agency, previous City Councils did not believe it was a good way to proceed and therefore the new procedure was set up with the current corporation.<\/p>\n

In other business, the BCTF Grant Advisory Board met and received funding requests.<\/p>\n

Jamestown College Athletic Director, Lawrie Paulson requested $10,000 in tourism funds to support the college hosting the National All Men\u2019s and Women\u2019s Basketball Tournament in Jamestown, February 21,25, 2013, in connection with A.I.I basketball conference.<\/p>\n

The event is expected to bring ten teams to play at the Jamestown Civic Center, with travel parties of 15-20 individuals plus fans, with teams requiring 6-10 motel rooms per night.<\/p>\n

Paulson said, projected expenses are almost $25,000, with the projected revenue, from gate receipts sponsorships and booklet sales at $15,600.<\/p>\n

Jamestown College has pledged $8,000.<\/p>\n

Following the presentation, the Grant Advisory Board voted unanimously to authorize up to $10,000 to pay the cost of officials and advertising.<\/p>\n

The Jamestown Rural Fire Department requested $3,000 to hold a fishing derby early in 2013.<\/p>\n

Other funding sources would come from raffle sales.<\/p>\n

Representative Travis Lemieux said the dollars would be used to advertise the event with billboards in Fargo and Devils Lake, along with advertisements in on line and print publications along with local media.<\/p>\n

The board voted to table the request, until it has more information including an itemized list of expenditures.<\/p>\n

The panel also reviewed the Stutsman County Memorial Museum 2012 season, visitor count.<\/p>\n

The total for the year was 1,861, with 1,266 visitors from Jamestown, with a total North Dakota count of 1,459.<\/p>\n

Visitors came from 36 states.<\/p>\n

Internationally there were 11 visitors from Canada, 2 from Denmark, 1 from Australia, 1 from Bosnia, and one from Thailand.<\/p>\n

The total amounted to 1,758 visitors.<\/p>\n

Jamestown, ND (KCSi-T.V. News Nov 16, 2012) — The Jamestown Arts Center is in the process of tidying-up, the Arts Park, in downtown Jamestown.<\/p>\n

Arts Center, Director, Taylor Barnes says a crew from Humes Landscaping in Jamestown is performing the work, including pulling about five feet of rubble from the adjacent building\u2019s wall, cleaning the edge of the property, and leveling that area of the park.<\/p>\n

She says as funds become available the area is planned for a performing arts space.<\/p>\n

Ms. Barnes added, that juniper trees will be planted along the edge of park at the alley.<\/p>\n

She anticipates this work will be finished by Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The Occupational Safety and Health Administration is investigating the cause of a drill rig collapse
\nnear Belfield in western North Dakota.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Neighbors Drilling spokesman Denny Smithsays \u00a0no one was hurt and no fluids spilled when the rig’s derrick collapsed Tuesday.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 OSHA spokesman Eric Brooks says investigators obtained a warrant
\nto enter the site on Thursday. Brooks say companies are allowed to
\nforce investigators to obtain a warrant under federal law. But he
\nsays it happens infrequently.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Smith says requiring OSHA to get a warrant is standard procedure
\nfor his company.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Smith says it’s unknown whether the collapse was caused by a
\nmechanical failure or human error. – Officials are beginning dredging projects on the Missouri River in the Bismarck-Mandan area to help prevent
\nice jam flooding.
\nWork on the Bismarck side of the river is to begin in earnest Monday and
\nwrap up by the end of the month. Preparation work also should be
\ncomplete at the end of the month for a project on the Mandan side
\nof the river.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Last year’s record flooding altered the river channel and left
\nlarge deposits of sand south of the neighboring cities. The
\ndredging projects are expected to cost about $500,000, with the
\nstate paying 75 percent and local governments the rest.<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s Board of Pharmacy has
\nscheduled a Nov. 30 meeting to consider banning more chemicals used
\nin synthetic drugs.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 State Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem (STEHN’-juhm) on Thursday
\nasked the board to use an emergency rule to ban additional
\nsubstances identified by the state crime lab and other labs across
\nthe country.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The pharmacy board used an emergency rule two years ago to
\noutlaw several chemicals, and the state Legislature added more
\nsubstances during the 2011 session. But state crime lab scientist
\nCharlene Schweitzer says new substances not covered by the law showed up within weeks.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Stenehjem this week ordered shops in Mandan and Minot to stop
\nselling synthetic drugs.<\/p>\n

WASHINGTON (AP) – After hearing from former CIA Director David
\nPetraeus, Republican lawmakers are still critical of the Obama
\nadministration’s handling of the attack on the U.S. consulate in
\nLibya that killed four Americans, including the U.S. ambassador.
\nRepublican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida says Petraeus made it clear
\nthat the security measures at the consulate weren’t adequate.
\nAccording to a congressional official, Petraeus testified that
\nsecurity was so lax, attackers just walked in and set fire to the
\nfacility.
