$56 Million Recreation Center For Watford City; To Go Forward With New Hospital

The Dickinson Press is reporting:

Voters in Watford City have overwhelmingly approved a 1.5 percent sales tax to finance a new recreation and events center, a new hospital and other community projects.

Data points

• 364 residents say yes; 63 voters said no
• McKenzie County can go forward with plans for a new hospital
• sales tax would help fund a proposed $56 million indoor recreation center

I believe the new recreation center in Williston was around $70 million.
