So you complain about a Sioux Falls hospital building a $500 million facility in Fargo but then claim we need to keep them out of Grand Forks because they'll take all the money out of town?

Right, your original post said every little town has a Sanford clinic except GF. Was just clarifying. Also, there are federal dollars available to towns and/or hospitals when they are the only hospital in town. Not sure exactly how it works, but have been told something to that effect by someone who works at Altru. One of the supposed reasons they purchased the "Doctor's" hospital that was gonna open on South Washington. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Property taxes skyrocketing, tax breaks for Burgum's Kilbourne Group downtown, no diversion. There is NO way in hell voters of Fargo including myself will vote for a tax increase to fund another football stadium for NDSU when the Fargodome is just fine. We have more important issues in this town when talking about money than paying for a stadium. We aren't Minneapolis. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sicatoka Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Someone is going large on the conspiracy theories and short on new batteries for the wireless keyboard I see. Altru has affiliated with Mayo in the past. I'd be stunned if Mayo went full boat and bought Altru. I'd expect a merger with Essentia before that. NCSCS (not NDSSS) is dying in Wahpeton. They had to come to Fargo to get any students. They are making the move to partner more and more with business to be workforce training (pick up some of the continuing ed for small businesses that can't do it for themselves) because they can't find students. Kids aren't going to two-year trade schools anymore (and I believe that's a huge mistake by them but that's a conversation for another thread). Fargo has a multi-billion problem surrounding it, and another right behind it. Both are "water". The first is the diversion and that cost. The second is that the Red and Sheyenne don't have the volume to support the population growth. Fargo will need a new water supply come mid-century (and that's just 30 years). See: re-visitation of Garrison Diversion. University of Jamestown (JC is dead) put its PT program in Fargo to have a larger patient base to train their students. A PT program is not a "signal" that UJ is going Med or Law as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A PT program is not a "signal" that UJ is going Med or Law as well. West Fargo is buying water, and garbage and soon sewage usage from Fargo. Fargo finally got with the times and started a major recycling program (we all have big garbage cans for that) this summer. I think it will help the landfill. New big sewage pipes are being used in the city that can be connected with WF, they haven't agreed yet to use it. And WF is using Fargo water since we have upgraded our water treatment plant. I see your point we do need to think of the water future with population in the metro at est. 209,177 (2014). What if water levels drop in the Red and Sheyenne due to drought? It was pretty dry down here but not like how dry it got west of Bismarck. Maybe strict water restrictions every year could be a sign of things to come. It could get ugly down here in the next 50 years or so especially if we see a population boom either in Fargo or one of the suburbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If new ones are established, it would be started by U Mary, possibly even in Fargo. U MARY seems to have much ambition, just like Creighton in Nebraska.
