While there have been some snags along the way, Roosevelt City and Ballard City are working together to see the proposed gun range project become a reality. During the November 1st Roosevelt City Council meeting, Mayor Bird updated the Council that Ballard City is on board with having a gun range in Ballard City limits and that they agreed to put funding toward the road and the shooting benches as well.
There has not been a formal agreement signed but both parties support the project moving forward. In July, Mayor Bird reported to the Council that anticipated funding for road improvements was not coming through but that the project would still move forward thanks to money set aside in the budget and donations toward the project.
During the November meeting, it was stated that Roosevelt City will produce an MOU to outline the expectations of each City and to make sure the interests of both Cities are protected.
