Fargo’s growth is prompting a fundamental question: should city leaders still be elected citywide, or is it time to break things down by neighborhood? A group of residents, including two former commissioners, is pushing to replace the city’s commission-style government with a council system. Supporters say it would improve representation and lower campaign costs. Critics, including Mayor Tim Mahoney, say the current system works just fine. Before voters weigh in, supporters must first clear a big hurdle—gathering thousands of signatures to get the issue on the ballot. Melissa Van Der Stad with InForum has the full story.
