The Dunn County Board approved a $250,000 donation to the North Dakota Cowboy Hall of Fame project. The motion was made and seconded; a roll‑call vote was recorded and the motion carried. Commissioners discussed the scale of the state project — the planner has estimated multi‑million dollar needs — and some members said they would have preferred to wait to see commitments from other jurisdictions, but a majority supported the county contribution.
The auditor noted available funds for possible donations and the board asked the auditor to proceed with processing this contribution according to county procedures.
