Mandan City Commission 2026-11-03

The Mandan City Commission meeting, titled November 3, 2026 (metadata lists November 4), included construction updates on highway interchange work and the first-year reconstruction project. The commission approved an amendment to the water supply contract with Missouri West Water System, clarifying that approval allows relocation of the master meter only and does not approve engineering designs for connection to the city’s 30-inch transmission line. No public hearings or bids were scheduled.

The commission approved a $15,000 Growth Fund pilot to provide short-term rental assistance to businesses occupying vacant downtown storefronts during the Holiday Lights on Main season. Assistance is 50% of monthly rent, capped at $7 per square foot per month, with funds available first-come, first-served. Commissioners also considered Task Order 13 with Moore Engineering for design services for Mandan Highway 1806 pedestrian trail improvements; a motion to approve was made and seconded, but the transcript does not include the vote. The agenda also included a zoning change for the Octavia addition; no other procurement activity was identified.
