WEST FARGO - The city's public works department has started 24-hour operations to monitor the spring melt but does not expect any major issues due to flooding.
West Fargo Public Works, police and engineering officials held the city's first - and possibly only - spring-melt meeting Monday morning.
"We're just out watching the weather, watching the ice jams," said Public Works Director Barry Johnson, adding he expects "clear sailing."
The Sheyenne River is expected to have substantial water flow for the next six weeks, said City Engineer Kevin Bucholz.
