One thing that's for sure is that GF would have had to deal with numerous more floods (like Fargo has) without a robust flood protection system, which would not have been any fun. Another problem with growing Grand Forks is the land on which to expand. Hard to develop residentially to the north - heavy industry that people don't really want to live by. Hard to develop west - run into alkali. Can't develop east - run into the river. That leaves the only option as south - into primo farmland that fetches a pretty penny. why would the akali soil be a hinderance to building out west? Quote
Kab Posted May 29 Posted May 29 Is it true that no apartment permits have been issued in the last 2 years? I thought I read that somewhere Quote

There was just too much water to hold back. That 1996-97 winter just dumped too much snow to melt without causing problems. The final storm in April 1997 added tons of moisture to the Red River basin and that was what made it impossible to win the war against the river. For starters an accurate crest level forecast would be nice.... 1 Quote

That's on the NWS, not the Mayor of Grand Forks. And forecast models are much improved today, so if the same event happened today, the crest prediction would be much more accurate. Quote
