City of Minot holds last neighborhood meeting of the month

Minot residents gathered one last time this month at the Public Library to connect with city leaders and discuss pressing community issues. Public safety took center stage, with Interim Police Chief Dale Plessas highlighting efforts to boost patrols despite being short 15 to 17 officers. Strategies to address the staffing gap include expanding Community Service Officer roles and partnering with Minot State and the Air Force. Meanwhile, city leaders weighed the costly decision of renovating Legacy City Hall or building a new facility—both options with long-term implications. Megan Topping with KX News has the full story.
