Hoeven Holds Community Roundtable, Reviews Progress on Watford City’s New High School & Housing Developments

-

WATFORD CITY, N.D. – November 24, 2015 – (RealEstateRama) — Senator John Hoeven today held a community roundtable at Watford City High School to take questions from students and area residents. There were approximately 100 high school students, including Watford City High School’s senior class and two classes of social studies/government students. Scott Hennen, host of What’s on Your Mind, served as the event moderator.

Long-Term Highway Bill

Hoeven said he continues working to pass a long-term highway bill before the end of the year. In July, the Senate passed a long-term bill that will provide North Dakota with more than $1.6 billion. Hoeven said the formula is favorable to North Dakota and increases highway funding for the state to $270 million, about $30 million a year more than it now receives.

Following the roundtable, Hoeven, Watford City Mayor Brent Sanford and Economic Developer Gene Veeder reviewed progress on Watford City’s new high school and housing development projects in the area. The new $50 million high school, which broke ground in July, will house state-of-the-art sports facilities and a spacious theatre space.
