Mandan votes to cut downtown parking spaces
Downtown Mandan is set for a makeover—but not everyone’s sold on the blueprint. City leaders voted to cut nearly half the area’s parking spots in favor of wider sidewalks, bike lanes, and a safer, more accessible layout. Business owners pushed back hard, submitting over 400 protest letters and voicing concern that fewer spaces mean fewer customers. The city stands by its data, saying parking is underused even during peak hours. Construction begins in 2026, but the debate over access and identity is already well underway. Keonia Swift with KX News has the full story.
