Question - Do I need a building permit to add a deck or remodel my home? Yes, building permits are required for any improvements or additions to your property. Contact Midwest Inspection Services at 701-426-8823 for further information regarding building permits. Question - Can I have a fire pit? Yes. Burning can occur within an approved manufactured device or structure which ensures that the fire shall be contained and shall not escape from the device. Approved devices include manufactured fire rings, outdoor fireplaces but do NOT include burning barrels, old recycled wheels or other junk or iron materials. All fires need to be supervised at all times with a fire extinguisher at hand. Contact City Hall for more information on this ordinance. Question - Does the City require my pet to be licensed? Yes. All dogs and cats 6 months of age or older must be registered and licensed with the City. Pet licenses are available for purchase at City Hall. Prices range from $3-$5 per pet and are valid from January 1-December 31 each year. Once a year, City Hall brings in a local veterinarian to provide shots for your animals. At the same time, you can update your pet’s registration and tags. Question - Can I drive my snowmobile or ATV on the streets? Snowmobiles and ATVs are permitted to be operated within the city limits only from the residence of the registered owner to the trail, taking the shortest route practicable. Question - What do I do with my lawn and brush debris? Yard Waste/Compost rolloff dumpsters are located on West Elm Street, across the train tracks by the City Shop. This is for grass clippings, leaves, and small branches (no larger than a soda can). No plastic bags please. There is a garbage can there for you to place your used trash bags. If the dumpsters are full, please do not leave your yard waste on the ground; doing so is considered illegal dumping and is punishable by fines. Please check back the following day for an empty rolloff and/or call City Hall (701-428-3115) to let us know they are full. Question - I want to hold a family reunion. Do you have a building I can rent? Yes. The City Hall can be rented as well as the Memorial Building located at our park. Call City Hall for rental information and availability. DID YOU KNOW?
