Forum editorial: Call it a sign of the times

Whatever spin one puts on the “North Dakota Open for Business” billboard in Moorhead, the reaction from some (certainly not all) residents of the city is immature and parochial.

Letter: Story full of factual errors

I am writing to correct some of the glaring errors in The Forum “exclusive” last Sunday: “Higher Ed Board torn over Shirvani criticisms.” I’m providing just two examples of Forum statements, followed by the factual corrections. The story is full of similar errors caused by mischaracterization and cherry picking emails obtained in open records requests and using them out of context.

Letter: Criticism of business tax cuts misses obvious benefits for ND

In his column dated May 19, Lloyd Omdahl tried to make the case that tax cuts to businesses and property owners who live out of state are a bad thing.

Letter: Our thanks to good Samaritan

Last Friday evening (May 17) my two daughters along with the neighbor boys went around the block.

Letter: North Dakota sign unfortunately true

Way to go Fargo! I’m referring to the neat sign, “North Dakota Open for Business.”

Here’s a thought: Could growing enrollments and a new funding formula for state education aid create a future in which West Fargo and Fargo schools decide to build a joint high school opening around 2020?

Letter: Costly aquatic center a bad idea

North Dakota State University’s aquatic center sounds nice but expensive – $11 million is a lot of money for students who are already paying a high cost for their education.

Letter: No vision for ND future

As we become further removed from the final gavel of the 63rd legislative session, many of us across the state continue to debate the merits of its outcome.

Letter: Fargo’s antiquated liquor laws stifle free market competition

Costco wasn’t denied the opportunity to enter into the Fargo market when similar retailers like Sam’s Club were already operating. Fast food chain locations do not appear to be restricted by proximity.

Letter: Great memories of Ed Fortin

I truly appreciated Dave Olson’s column (May 16) about Ed Fortin. I, too, have fond memories of Fortin as my junior high physical education teacher and later driver’s education (behind-the-wheel) instructor.
