Week 36: September 2, 2018 -- September 8, 2018 -- Williston, Dickinson On List Of Top 15 "Small" American Towns With Most Millionaire Households

Williston's new airport: JM Marshuetz reinstated as the contractor for the new Williston airport. Link here.
Airport director Anthony Dudas would not elaborate on the particular steps and observations that would accompany this second round of work, however it does entail additional equipment and personnel contributed by the contractor and the surety to guarantee the taxiway is finished on time for the October 10th 2019, Grand Opening of the airport.
The city canceled the contract in August when JM Marschuetz had informed the city it would need additional funding to complete the taxiway by the deadline. Marschuetz counted that assertion, blaming the city for giving a two month late start for the project.
The project: a taxiway. The article does not say if more than the taxiway is at stake.
