Good morning, Fargo.
Three people were injured after a Red Cross SUV carrying storm relief supplies collided with a semi at around 11:00 a.m. Wednesday on County Road 26 between Arthur and Hunter (Cass County) during rainy conditions; the 74-year-old driver and two passengers were taken to a Fargo hospital with the driver cited for failing to yield while the semi driver was unharmed.
Governor Kelly Armstrong toured storm-damaged areas in Cass County on Wednesday — he visited Enderlin, Page, and Hunter after a tornado killed three people and damaged farms and storage.
He said his top goal was to help affected residents and direct state support to recovery efforts.
Fargo Mayor Dr. Tim Mahoney said he opposes switching to primary elections for City Commission roles and adopting a ward system because it would raise campaign costs and split the community—he noted that current campaign expenses of about five to ten thousand dollars could double under a new system. His remarks came at a recent commission meeting after residents proposed the changes for local offices.
