What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The West Fargo School Board unanimously approved a 10-year, 100% tax exemption for the COVE Living project on November 9, 2026. The exemption applies only to the COVE Living project and any new value added to the property. The Fargo City Commission's 10-year exemption automatically included the school district and Cass County Commission for the first five years, though the County Commission later declined to participate in the second half of the period.
