Rubber Stamp Went Missing; Grand Forks Leaders Are Pushing Back Against Housing Incentive Program
Grand Forks leaders are navigating a delicate balancing act: how to support new housing while being mindful of taxpayers’ wallets. The County Commission has followed the School Board’s lead in rejecting—but not closing the door on—tax breaks for a proposed apartment development on the city’s south side.

The conversation is far from over, and future negotiations will test that balance. Matthew Voigt with Grand Forks Herald has the full story on the Grand Forks County Commission sourced below.
