Missouri River Lodge opponents meet in NT

The Missouri River Lodge, a development that would house 1,500 workers about a mile northwest of New Town, is drawing a lot of attention from residents of the area along the shore of Lake Sakakawea where it would be built.
The Lodge is being proposed by Steven Richards and Theron Larroquette, who have done development projects in Louisiana and other southern states. The proposed project would build 300 units of five rooms each with a bed and kitchenette. They say the project would be a gated, secure community that would include a small commercial zone that would host a gym, restaurant and laundromat that would be open to the public. After 15 years, the units would be converted into single family affordable housing. The project would be located off of 41st Street west of North Dakota Highway 1804.
