Topics getting the most attention in Fargo public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
2027 Capital Improvement Plan and 2028 street reconstruction
Final assessment lists were confirmed for 17 improvement districts — about $52 million across 6,835 parcels — plus two sidewalk projects. Property owners in those districts will see these costs on their tax bills.
I-29/64th Avenue interchange planning
NDDOT chose roundabouts at both ramps (alternate B2) over the city's preferred alternate B1, but increased its funding contribution. Construction starts 2028.
64th Avenue South traffic calming and future I-29 interchange
The city is deciding whether to add interchange ramps at 64th Avenue and I-29 by 2028, a $25-30 million project with about $20 million in federal funds. Residents with driveways on 64th fear it will become another 32nd or 52nd Avenue; staff say the ramps would fix safety problems at the 52nd Avenue interchange.
