Proposed 118-unit apartment complex on Sheyenne Street
City of West Fargo
Summary
A developer wanted to rezone land at 1114 Sheyenne Street to build 118 apartments, and neighbors pushed back hard — 26 of them spoke against it, citing traffic, school crossings, crime, snow storage, and special assessments. The plan commission unanimously recommended denial, but the City Commission gets the final vote.

Impact analysis
The developer argued the project would raise city tax revenue even under a proposed five-year tax break, while neighbors worried about special assessments if Sheyenne Street needs widening.
Renters and the developer would benefit from new housing stock in a walkable corridor near Sanford, parks, and retail.
Nearby single-family homeowners say they would bear the traffic, noise, parking overflow, and potential tax impacts.
