Sandbags come with no charge for people who live in prioritized areas and/or where there are public infrastructure concerns, county Administrator Bonnie Johnson said.
Cass County began its sandbag operations center this week at 220 21st St. N.W. in West Fargo.
Residents who need to protect private property can pick up unfilled sandbags for a cost of 5 cents per bag. They are sold in bundles of 1,000.
The county will deliver bulk sand at no cost, so residents can fill the bags.
