Jamestown (CSi) Frontier Village has received a $10,000 State Historical Society of North Dakota grant to help prioritize its future.<\/p>\n

Frontier Village Manager, Nichole Mosolf told the Village Association Board of Directors that half of the grant will go to complete a report on FVA priorities, and the remainder toward the top priority from the report.<\/p>\n

FVA Vice President Nellie Degan, said the report is an overview by a consultant from the State Historical Society of North Dakota, and its recommendations are valuable as a support document for all grant-writing efforts.<\/p>\n

The board voted 6-0 to accept the grant, with member Jim Cofield absent.<\/p>\n

In other business the board accepted 70 “Talking Trail Points” recommendations as presented by Jamestown Tourism Executive Director Searle Swedlund.<\/p>\n

Swedlund said a Mandan-based company will record compelling stories that explain various sites of interest in the area.<\/p>\n

FVA Secretary Treasurer Tina Busche said, that to date FVA has spent $19,522 on Mary\u2019s Place renovation and clean up from a delayed roofing job that left the interior exposed.<\/p>\n

Board President Charley Tanata said that before the board votes to accept a bid to complete the project in the spring, that it will wait to review a second bid recently received. In the meantime the insurance settlements are being finalized and will offer a clearer picture of the available budget, he said.<\/p>\n

The board voted unanimously to wait and review the second bid.<\/p>\n

The board agreed to pay $500 for Mosolf to increase her hours to complete holiday decorations around the village. Work is to be completed prior to the Christmas in the Village with Santa & Mrs. Claus event in the Town Hall building from 6 to 9 p.m. Saturday.<\/p>\n

The event is sponsored by Frontier Village and hosted by the Wild West Players.<\/p>\n

GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – The owners of a Somali restaurant in Grand Forks that was heavily damaged by a suspicious fire say they plan to rebuild in the same spot because they like the neighborhood.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The early Monday fire caused an estimated $90,000 in damage to the Juba Coffee House. Investigators said it was “incendiary and suspicious in nature” and released a video showing a person smashing the restaurant’s windows moments before the fire began.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities are continuing to investigate. The fire happened just three days after vandals spray-painted an offensive symbol on the business along with the words “go home,” but police still haven’t determined if the two incidents are connected.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0A crowdfunding effort has raised nearly $19,000, and the business owners say they’re overwhelmed by the community support.<\/p>\n

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Two more people have been indicted in what authorities say was an international synthetic drug ring that led to numerous overdoses in the Grand Forks area.<\/p>\n

The indictments of Ronnie Helms, of Acworth, Georgia, and Braden Foley, of Olympia, Washington, are part of an investigation into the international trafficking of powdered fentanyl and other synthetic drugs.<\/p>\n

It’s been dubbed “Operation Denial,” which prosecutors say is a reference to both the efforts of law enforcement to deny drugs and the apathy of citizens toward the problem. A dozen people have been charged in the case.<\/p>\n

North Dakota U.S. Attorney Christopher Myers says Helms and Foley face drug distribution and conspiracy charges and are being brought to North Dakota to face them. The Associated Press requested comment from their attorneys.<\/p>\n

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Some members of the North Dakota Board of Higher Education say they were taken aback by North Dakota State University’s announcement to shutter a major research center.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s Board of Animal Health has lifted a ban on bird movements to shows, exhibitions and public sales within the state.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The ban was implemented in April to combat the spread of bird flu during the midst of a nationwide outbreak.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 North Dakota had two confirmed cases of avian influenza in commercial poultry operations, affecting more than 130,000 birds. Nationally, the outbreak affected more than 48 million birds in 15 states.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 State Veterinarian Susan Keller says bird owners should still immediately report unusual death loss, restrict access to their property, prevent contact between their birds and wild birds and practice enhanced biosecurity.<\/p>\n

MINOT, N.D. (AP) – The screening commission for Minot’s economic development fund is recommending help for downtown merchants as they deal with a three-year infrastructure upgrade project.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The\u00a0 commission has endorsed up to half a million dollars from the city’s Magic Fund to pay down interest on debt for downtown businesses disrupted by the project. The decision came over concerns about setting a bad precedent.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Minot Area Development Corp. made the request last month. The City Council will have the final say, likely in January.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The infrastructure projects include replacement of water and sewer lines, repaving of streets and the construction of two parking ramps. The work has shut down several streets, affecting traffic flow and parking. At least 55 downtown businesses have been affected.<\/p>\n

BISON FOOTBALL…<\/p>\n

\u00a0FARGO, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota State’s star quarterback has returned to practice in a week when the Bison are concentrating on a better defensive effort against Northern Iowa. Senior quarterback and pro prospect Carson Wentz suited up for the first time since breaking his throwing wrist seven weeks ago. His playing status in the FCS quarterfinal at the Fargodome Saturday appears to be a game-day decision.<\/p>\n

\u00a0NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – The Los Angeles Angels have acquired infielder Yunel (yoo-NEHL’) Escobar from the Washington Nationals for right-handed pitchers Trevor Gott and Michael Brady, along with cash considerations. Escobar played third base last season and batted .314 with nine homers and 56 RBIs in 139 games. Gott went 4-2 with a 3.02 ERA in 48 games as a rookie last season.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – The Royals have finalized a three-year, $25 million deal that brings pitcher Joakim Soria back to Kansas City. Soria was one of the game’s premier closers during his first stint in Kansas City, but he missed the 2012 season for Tommy John surgery and the Royals decided not to exercise their option on him. Soria was 3-1 with 24 saves and a 2.53 ERA for the Tigers and Pirates last season.
\n\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0A person familiar with the deal has told The Associated Press that free agent shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera (ahs-DROO’-buhl kah-BREHR’-uh) has agreed to a two-year, $18.5 million contract with the Mets, pending a physical. The 30-year-old switch hitter hit .265 with 15 homers and 58 RBIs for Tampa Bay last season.<\/p>\n

In world and national news…<\/p>\n

\u00a0WASHINGTON (AP) – A new Associated Press-GfK poll suggests that three-quarters of Republicans think Donald Trump would have a chance of winning the general election if nominated, significantly more than say so of any other GOP candidate. Eight in 10 Republican registered voters who answered the poll call Trump very or somewhat decisive. But overall, Trump also has negatives, with 58 percent of all Americans having an unfavorable view of him. That’s the worst favorable rating of any candidate.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – Lawmakers who outlined closed-door briefings on the San Bernardino shootings say it appears information that the FBI has been able to glean came after the fact. Officials say the U.S. government appears not to have picked up on extremist messages exchanged during the online courtship two years ago between 28-year-old Syed Rizwan Farook and his wife, 29-year-old Tashfeen Malik. They discussed martyrdom and jihad online as early as 2013 but never got on law enforcement radar.

Kerry is slated to plunge back into the detailed talks during a meeting with U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon. Ban says negotiators are still in disagreement over how far-reaching it should be and who should pay for damages wrought by global warming.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 SEATTLE (AP) – Forecasters are pointing to a silver lining around the clouds from fierce Northwest storms this week — there’s been enough rain to begin easing summer drought conditions. The storms are easing off but expected to continue this weekend. The rains sent rivers bursting from their banks, closed roadways and produced a rare tornado. There have been at least two deaths.

An official says the woman and children got out of the car and couldn’t speak the Afghan languages of Pashto and Dari and appeared to be speaking Russian. It’s unclear what happened to four men in the car.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
