The line at 3rd Street NE and 9th Avenue NE will be replaced and funded by the owner with cost of excavation and replacement of curb, gutter, and asphalt to be shared equally by the City and University.
JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – After nearly two months of discussion and research, the Jamestown Public Works Committee moved to approve a Citywide Cleanup for the week of May 10th through the 14th.
Sanitation Foreman Shawn O’Neill informed the committee that if they were to move forward with the cleanup, he would not have enough staff at this time to conduct the weeklong event.
O’Neill stated they would need to rent two loaders with six part-time employees to help during the week. Councilmember David Steele stated that Deputy Auditor Jay Sveum would be tasked with finding part-time work for the week.

JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – The Jamestown Public Works Committee discussed 12th Avenue SE improvements from the City’s STIP List and funding through NDDOT to be constructed in 2022.
City Engineer Travis Dillman reports last month they were surprised when they were awarded funds for the mill and overlay project on Highway 20.
Dillman says the proposal is about a $1.4 million project with 81% being covered by the North Dakota Department of Transportation and the rest covered in city-share. Dillman says they might be able to use COVID-19 funding the city received to cover their portion of roughly $260,000.
Councilmember Dave Steele stated that as it stands, the current avenue setup is not satisfactory.
