May 10—GRAND FORKS — Residents in Grand Forks and East Grand Forks will be able to put items on the berm for city pickup starting Monday. The traditional cleanup week runs May 12-16. Crews will follow the street maintenance schedule for both cities and not the trash pickup schedule. Having crews follow the street maintenance allows easier access to the berm and minimizes the number of vehicles on the streets on those days.

May 7—GRAND FORKS — Mayor Brandon Bochenski said considering a merger of Grand Forks International Airport into the city is a good way to explore potential budget savings. "Whether we move forward with this re-merger or not, I think it's an exercise that's important," he said. "We do that in a lot of departments. We have never been afraid to change things."The city and the airport, operated by the Grand Forks Regional Airport Authority, have been separate entities since 1987.

EAST GRAND FORKS – The East Grand Forks City Council has approved a letter urging Rep. Michelle Fischbach to support keeping municipal bonds exempt from federal taxes. A budget proposal in the United States House of Representatives would, if it becomes law, would mean that cities, counties and other entities that take bonds for projects would likely have higher costs of borrowing.

I'll just add it does make voter turnout calculations a fundamentally different calculation than in other states (the secretary of state uses a population estimate since there's no voter roll to reference)

TIL North Dakota has no voter registration like... at all On the surface, it doesn't seem like a horrible way of doing things if all you need is an ID and some sort of proof that you've lived in the state for at least 30 days? https://t.co/f1Wi6WUf7W
