As part of the City of Moorhead's strategic plan and with the support of the Moorhead City Council, Mayor Shelly Carlson appointed a Community Center/Regional Library Task Force to work with the community to develop the vision for this project, including features/amenities and location. This group has been meeting since fall 2021. Some broad parameters have been developed. The project vision includes:
- A Community Center where people can gather and connect
- A Regional Library
- A place where ideas and dreams can take shape
Financing – Local Option Sales Tax Proposed: On November 8, 2022, City of Moorhead voters will have the opportunity to approve a 0.5 percent local option sales tax to be used to fund this new Community Center/Regional Library in downtown Moorhead.
