City Government Week is a special time for city leaders and staff to enhance public awareness of the role local government plays in the lives of citizen’s every day.

The City of Valley City invited third grade students to participate in “Mayor for a Day” contest. The winner, Colin Hoff, will help conduct the April 4 City Commission meeting at 5:00 pm. Brenna Storly was selected as runner-up and will join Colin and the Mayor for a tour of City Hall. Their entries are posted in City Hall and Public Works hallways.

Mayor Carlsrud will conduct a field trip for local eighth-grade students who are studying history of North Dakota by providing insights into city government.

Carlsrud said, “I am excited to partner with the local schools to provide these opportunities for our young people to become more informed about city government.”
