Status of Disputed Land Delays City Improvements
The city faces a delay in extending improvements into about three blocks of east end First through Seventh streets and Natchez avenue due to a land dispute with Northern Pacific Railroad. The dispute concerns the north half of the southeast quarter of section 19 township 13, with the land argued as public United States land or townsite land. A final patent decision will determine priority rights for occupants and potential purchase options, leaving residents anxious for resolution.
