Watford City in the Heart of the Bakken To Double in Size With Annexation

Link here. Regional link will be broken soon.
The city council will hold a hearing today to decide whether to annex 700 acres into the town's city limits, nearly doubling its current size.
All the annexations are by request, not force, so it's expected to be a procedural slam dunk. Most is for airport and golf course land, but about 140 acres are privately owned and prime for development as the busy town tries to find room to grow.
Since the announcement of the event, three more requests have come in for annexation, adding another 110 acres to the initial request. 

Taking the paved highway all the way, Watford City is 46 miles from Williston.
