The Grand Forks City Council recently convened to review a second round of bids for the highly anticipated Altru Sports Complex. This new facility is expected to enhance the local sports landscape and provide a significant boost to community engagement. Members of the council expressed optimism about the potential benefits the complex will bring to the area, including opportunities for youth sports and community events.

In addition to discussing the bids, the council also explored the possibility of providing financial assistance to Red River BMX. This funding would be aimed at making necessary improvements at Hugo’s Raceway, which is situated adjacent to the new sports complex. The enhancements at the BMX track are seen as a vital complement to the Altru Sports Complex, fostering a more vibrant sports culture in Grand Forks. The council's discussions reflect a commitment to not only building new facilities but also improving existing ones to serve the community better.
