Top issues during term (7)(Business Jobs)
Alcohol service throughout Hector International Airport gate area
The license would bring a $115,000 initial fee and $1,700 a year, but police worry about needing extra resources at the airport.
Convention Center location decision
No dollar figure yet — costs will come out of the due diligence review with the two finalists.
Najaxa Software tax exemption and incentive accountability
Exempts the company's property taxes for the incentive period; staff are drafting a new incentive agreement with annual reporting and possible clawbacks.
Convention center siting — Civic Center vs. Bruhalla
Roughly $40 million in bonding backed by the 3% lodging tax; the downtown plan would use the existing Riverfront TIF and avoid a $2 million demolition.
Convention center public-private partnership
No dollar figure yet — costs will come out of the due diligence review with the two finalists.
Downtown Fargo parking operations and strategy
The parking system lost about $541,000 last year and needs $900,000 in new revenue by 2032, so the new operator's pricing and enforcement choices will hit downtown drivers and businesses directly.
Push Cart Program ordinance changes
