FARGO — A committee tasked with setting the stage for a new convention center in Fargo has forwarded its work on to the Fargo City Commission for approval.

The Fargo Convention Center Committee has been meeting regularly since February to create a process for choosing a site and a developer for the convention center.

On Friday, June 6, the committee unanimously approved its process and sent a Request for Proposals (RFP) to the City Commission for approval on Monday, June 9.

Denise Kolpack, city commissioner and member of the convention center committee, said she’s excited to work on a project approved by citizens.

“We just need to be really good stewards of that trust of the taxpayer dollars that are going to go into this project, and I think we have been so far,” she said.
