Informational: Departmental and financial reports.<\/p>\n

BUILDING, PLANNING & ZONING COMMITTEE<\/p>\n

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

CIVIC CENTER AND PROMOTION COMMITTEE<\/p>\n

The committee reconsidered the request from the Jamestown Classic Car Club to install a banner hoist on the east wall of the Jamestown Civic Center.<\/p>\n

Interstate Engineer provided a report on the integrity of the structure concerning hanging a banner and requirements of equipment. The mounting will sit atop a ledge, under the scoreboard, and will be operated by remote control. Two firms have provided examples from other arenas, and range in price from $1,850 and $2,200 depending on size and weight and torque requirements. Interstate Engineering will oversee the installation, by Jamestown Classic Car Club, which is constructing a prototype. Interstate Engineering is working with JCCC in the construction of the hoist.<\/p>\n

Signage will be in place indicating the proper usage.<\/p>\n

Civic Center Manage Pam Fosse has concerns about esthetics. She doesn\u2019t see the banner hoist being used in other events.<\/p>\n

The committee recommends approval of installation, pending on Fosse\u2019s approval and oversight by Interstate Engineering.<\/p>\n

\u3000<\/p>\n

The committee considered the repair \/ replacement of bleacher section(s) at the Civic Center. Pam Fosse said section three has motor problems, with parts being sheared off, and unusable.<\/p>\n

Repairs are not warenteed and are costly, at $17,500, compared to replacement, estimated at $35,000. She\u2019s requesting standard, and not cushion-back seats.<\/p>\n

The committee recommends tabling until more quotes come in.<\/p>\n

In the meantime the bleachers will continue to manually operated.<\/p>\n

\u3000<\/p>\n

POLICE AND FIRE COMMITTEE<\/p>\n

The committee recommends redirecting a portion of forfeiture funds designated for the shooting range to be used for the purchase of external vests, which has an attachment for a camera. Chief Edinger said $12,000 would be used from the available $70,000 in the fund. Changes in uniforms are also being considered, using existing budget dollars.<\/p>\n

The committee recommends the change order, and waive liquidated damages.<\/p>\n

The committee considered the replacement of the failed electronic hardware\/computer equipment in the three filter panels for the 1961 and 1974 treatment bays at the Water Plant for an estimated $60,000 – $78,000.<\/p>\n

The committee recommends declaring an emergency authorizing the repair of the controllers, as the system serves as a backup of the primary system and brings it into operation.<\/p>\n

The committee recommends the creation of a Sewer & Water District to construct a water & sewer main in the 200 Block of 3rd <\/span>Street Northwest.<\/p>\n

Three homes in the block have an issue with the system.<\/p>\n

Interstate Engineering has received two estimates, with a street option for construction.<\/p>\n

The city will pay 25 percent of the cost. Special Assessments will provide the balance of the funding assessed on two homes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The committee considered entering into an Agreement for Engineering Services with Interstate Engineering for the proposed 5th <\/span>Street NE \u2013 Sanitary Sewer and Water System and Storm Sewer Improvements, near Gussner School, and the new TRAC facility.<\/p>\n

The committee recommends entering into the agreement.<\/p>\n

The committee recommends entering into an Agreement for Engineering Services with Interstate Engineering for the proposed 5th <\/span>Street Northeast Paving Improvements.<\/p>\n

The committee recommends entering into an annual Agreement for Long-Term Temporary Highway Closure with the NDDOT, rather than multiple times through the year.<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – State Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring has chosen three operations in three counties to help determine whether industrial hemp can be successfully grown in North Dakota.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Jamie and Lyle Edwards with Black Dirt Incorporated in LaMoure Co<\/strong>unty, David Lommen in Grand Forks County and Clarence Laub in Grant County were among 11 successful applicants for the research program. A committee determined them to have the top proposals.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hemp produces fiber and oil and can be used in everything from clothing to food. Some North Dakota farmers hope it can become a profitable part of their operations.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Congress in 2014 allowed universities and state agriculture departments to research hemp in states that permit its cultivation. North Dakota’s research program aims to help determine how viable hemp can be in the state.<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A teenager accused of making a threat that prompted a lockdown at the third-largest college in North Dakota’s university system was arrested on a Minot-area school bus.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Highway Patrol Capt. Eric Pederson\u00a0 says authorities were able to track the 16-year-old boy through his cellphone.

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 FBI spokesman Kyle Loven says no charges have been filed but the investigation continues. He says juveniles can be charged in federal court, but it’s rare.

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 James Lowe is charged in federal court with assault with a dangerous weapon. The incident happened on Nov. 5 in Parshall.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A federal affidavit says Lowe shot a man twice in the legs while he was in the shower and then hit him in the head with the gun. Lowe allegedly told the victim he would come back and kill him if he notified police.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The affidavit says the victim told police he had been distributing marijuana for Lowe and owed Lowe money.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Court documents do not list an attorney for Lowe, who has yet to appear in court.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Ott could face more than 16 years in prison if convicted on all charges.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities allege Ott set fire to the Hardee’s restaurant last Oct. 25 to cover up a burglary. No one was hurt in the fire, but authorities say $1 million in damage was done.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The search follows the retirement of UND President Robert Kelley, who retired earlier this month after nearly seven years at the school.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Former North Dakota Gov. and U.S. Agriculture Secretary Ed Schafer began serving as the school’s interim president last week.\u00a0 Schafer will serve until a permanent successor is named to Kelley.

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The North Dakota Public Service Commission approved the permit for the Dakota Access Pipeline on Wednesday.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Dallas-based Energy Transfer Partners wants to build the $3.8 billion, 1,130-mile pipeline to move nearly 600,000 barrels of crude daily from North Dakota to Illinois. The pipeline’s capacity is about half of North Dakota’s current production.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The North Dakota portion is the longest leg of the pipeline. The company says regulators in South Dakota and Illinois already have approved permits for the project.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The company says it expects regulators in Iowa to make a decision on the pipeline next month.
