I'm sure they will sell arguably the most successful mall in ND, SD, MT and western MN. Von Mauer will tear up their new lease

Start with something like the Horace area. Plenty of room for parking and everything else needed.

Except for streets and water storage to flush all of those toilets. Plus, people in Horace want to pretend they live in the country.

Then you buy a block of unincorporated land, develop to suit our purpose and enjoy immunity from any city tax and city regulation bullshit. Supplement with naming rights, fully visible from I29. Boom! What's next?

Water bill ensures it's Fargo residents. It's quite effective and targeted. Although most people do their bills electronically these days so it could be a boomer only response

It should be multi faceted. Water bill. Social media. Signs at the Fargodome. Require a valid address

I agree. Water bill recipient gets the link (both on their paper statement and in the email and/or a pop up on the website), in order to log into the survey you make them enter their first name as the username, the water bill account number as the access code and make them pick their house number out of a list of 3 choices. From there you can maybe hire an outside firm to write the questionnaire and conduct the analysis (or run it through a LLM AI that has been trained to analyze data).

I get where Indy is coming from though. By having someone "in house" do it, there's always a chance they will interpret the data/word the questions in a manner that suits their own personal beliefs.

[tjamz]

It needs to reflect who votes. Sounds like a job for professionals.

So only give the link to people who have voted in one of the past 3 election cycles. Problem solved.

I learned this from Frank Gallagher. Gentrification - the process whereby the character of a poor urban area is changed by wealthier people moving in, improving housing, and attracting new businesses, typically displacing current inhabitants in the process.

It's also probably the correct way to do a survey. I worked a little with a market research firm and there is a lot to making sure a survey is statistically valid. Putting something in a water bill probably doesn't meet that requirement. Hiring a college class to do that is not the right thing to do. Would you hire a bunch of medical students to do your knee replacement surgery?

My dad got a call about an ag econ survey at ndsu in the 90's. His brother in law taught ag econ. So he asked the guy doing the survey about him and it turns out the students hired a survey company. Lolz.
