Dickinson't Could Double in Population by 2012 -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

Link here.
By the end of 2012 the city is expected to nearly double.

Megan Lowry talks with city officials as they start to plan for the city future.

Last month the city has approved 36 new building permits making the total for this year 188. Last year only 136 were approved. [Compare with 727 for Williston this calendar year so far through September, 2011.]

The the first thing we need to look at is where are we at and where are we going and where we want to be and if thats not what we want how do we change the direction.
Actually, the first thing they need to do is work with professional lodging folks.
According to city officials, the two biggest concerns ar housing and traffic.
Third will be dust.
