The GF Community Awareness of FuFeng Project collected more than 5,000 signatures in their bid for a citywide vote on the proposed corn wet milling project in Grand Forks. “The city has to look at the petition that came in and check the signatures just like any other petition,” Mayor Brandon Bochenski told RRFN. “Right now, there was a sufficient amount of signatures that came in to reach the threshold.” Bochenski says the city is looking at its next steps. “On our side, I think we need to look at what can we continue with and what can we hold off on. I know that the company is probably going to continue to work on their site planning and engineering. They already have some of those fixed costs that they’ve spent, so I imagine they’ll keep moving forward.”
