Hello Kindred!

 

Water Conservation: Please consider adopting the NDSU Extension Office’s BEST PRACTICES for watering your lawn to help reduce overconsumption, lessen strain on the city’s water levels, and (BONUS!) lower your water bill. If you choose to water your lawn to keep your grass green and growing it only needs about 1 inch of water per week (including rainfall). Please consider adjusting your scheduled/automatic irrigation to only once or twice per week, turn it off while it’s raining, and only water in the early morning. Thank you for your cooperation!

 

Garbage Delay: Due to the July 4th holiday falling on Tuesday next week, garbage pickup will be on Wednesday, July 5th. Click HERE for the 2023 garbage/recycling calendar.

 

City Hall Office Closed: City Hall will be closed on Tuesday, July 4th.

 

Fireworks: Did you know Kindred has a fireworks ordinance (Chapter 6-03)? A few reminders – any individual who is at least 12 years of age may use, explode, or possess any fireworks within the city limits from July 3 through July 5. Individual use or explosion of fireworks during these dates is not permitted after 11:00 pm. Any individual use, explosion, or possession of fireworks at any other time during the year is prohibited.

 

Thank you!

6/23/2023:

Hello Kindred,

 

Closure of on/off ramps for I-29 & County Road 18 to begin June 26: Industrial Builders, Inc. has advised that they are preparing to temporarily close South bound I-29 on and off ramps at Exit 50/CR 18 for approximately 3-4 weeks, starting June 26. The plan is to re-open the South bound ramps towards the end of July, at which time the North bound ramps would then be closed until sometime in October. Traffic control pre-warning signs will be provided as needed to direct the traveling public in all directions. The bridge at CR 18 would be open to traffic the entire time. These closures are needed to help insure the project is completed this year.

 

Water Quality Report for City of Kindred Water Users: The 2022 Annual Drinking Water Quality Report is now available. You can visit/call/email City Hall to get a copy or go to www.KindredND.com/ccr-report to view it online.

 

Have a great weekend! Enjoy the “cooler” temps and the rain!!​

​

Good morning Kindred!

 

TODAY, JUNE 23 = PLEASE LIMIT ALL NON-ESSENTIAL WATER USAGE THAT IS SENT TO THE SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM!

 

Emergency repairs are being completed to the sanitary force main that was hit during an excavation project. In order to complete the repairs, we will need to temporarily shut down the main sanitary lift station. Your assistance to reduce flows into the sewer system will greatly aid the repair efforts! We will send another notice once the repairs are complete.

 

Please share with anyone who may not have access to this email.

 

Thank you for your cooperation!

• The fee is $45.00 per appliance and will be added to your City of Kindred Utility bill.

Hello Kindred - we hope you are having a great Tuesday!

 

REMINDER!

Drive up Pet Clinic is TONIGHT (5/23/2023) at City Hall (north garage door) from 4:30-7:00 pm! You and your pet(s) should remain in your vehicle and line up on the east side of the building; pull around to the north garage door when it is your turn.

 

REFRIDGERATOR/FREEZER/AC PICKUP:

We are currently researching options for curbside collection/removal of freezers, refrigerators, and a/c units only. The removal fee would be approximately $45.00 PER ITEM (applied to your monthly utility bill). We are looking at a pick up date of possibly June 5. We are trying to gauge interest and scale of this. If you would be interested in having PW remove your freezer, refrigerator, or a/c unit for a fee, please reply to this email stating your interest and number of units.

 

TRESPASSING ON AIRPORT PROPERTY:

As the weather is finally getting nice, the airport is seeing more unauthorized foot and bicycle traffic. Most (but not all) are children going from the Newport Ridge neighborhood to and from school. Thankfully, school will be out soon but kids will still be going back and forth for summer activities. Please educate your young ones on the importance of using established walking or bike trails (NOT the airport!) to get to school and other activities. The pedestrian, not the pilot, will be held liable for any damage to aircraft or airport property if an encounter were to occur. The airport can be a very unsafe environment for people using it as a walking path. Thank you for your cooperation! 

 

Thank you!

Hello Kindred!

 

Birds are chirping, snow is (still) slowly melting, green grass is emerging, and trees are budding – IT’S SPRING! Along with the sluggish arrival of spring, our volunteer City Tree Board has been out and about in Kindred taking an inventory of public trees - boulevard and city right-of-way trees - and identifying (some are marked with a “x”) those in poor condition that may need attention. This inventory is the first step in developing a plan for maintenance (trimming/removal) that may be needed later this year. If you have any questions or concerns, or would like to talk to a Tree Board member, please don’t hesitate to contact City Hall. More information will be available later as the Tree Board finalizes the maintenance plan.

 

‘Tis the season for spring cleaning! Sorry for the short notice…Street Sweeping will be conducted tomorrow, Thursday, April 27!! Please remove your vehicles from the street so the street sweeper can clean as thoroughly as possible!

 

Also, last call for the kids coloring sheet that was in the last city newsletter is April 30! Can be dropped off at City Hall or in the after-hours deposit.

Hello friends,

 

Well, here we are again. We really need to stop meeting like this. Another round of snow means more snow notifications:

• Waste Management has informed City Hall that they are going to send garbage and recycling trucks out very early Tuesday morning (leaving Fargo at 5:15 a.m.) to beat the worst of the snow. Please plan to put your garbage & recycling totes out before 6:00 am Tuesday, April 4. If WM notifies us of any changes, we will pass those notifications along as soon as we receive them. Please share this information with your neighbors!

• Also, please remove your totes off of the street as soon as they are emptied to allow for efficient snow removal.

• Also, snow removal on streets goes SO much more smoothly when vehicles, equipment, trailers, etc. are removed from streets where possible.

• Please DO NOT BLOW/MOVE SNOW ONTO CITY STREETS.

 

THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION!

​

​

3/15/2023:

Happy Wednesday Kindred!

Wow! It’s been quite the winter,

Falling snow seems to never cease.

Thank you for your patience as

Snow piles only seem to increase!

 

Where o where should all the snow go?

To start, let’s not put it in the street.

Definitely, not in the neighbor’s yard,

But, please continue to shovel your concrete!

 

Spring’s almost here,

It’s just around the corner!

Start dreaming of the days

When the weather is warmer.

 

But until that day comes,

If you would be so kind,

Please continue to dig out,

So I can quit with the cheesy rhyme.

 

But seriously, thank you for your cooperation and patience with the excessive snow this year. Additionally, PLEASE DIG OUT ANY FIRE HYDRANT on your property that is currently buried under snow. Every second counts in a fire emergency!

Just a reminder - utility bills are due today! Remember, you can pay online or drop off a payment at City Hall in the after-hours drop box tonight!

 

Upcoming Events:

March 15: City Council Meeting @ 7:30 pm (rescheduled from March 1)

March 17: Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

March 24: Cocoa & Cider Crawl 

March 25: Kindred Firefighter’s 26th Annual Benefit Supper

Stay Classy, Kindred!

​

2/22/2023:

Snow, cold, wind…OH MY!

Don’t worry, spring is coming!

 

In the meantime, while we weather winter’s withering wrath, here are a few friendly reminders:

• Please remove your garbage and recycling totes from the berm in a timely manner –preferably on Tuesdays after they’ve been emptied. This is applicable year-round, but more so during the winter with potential snow and windy conditions.

• Keep up the great job of clearing snow from around your hydrant and off your sidewalks! I promise, it will be all disappear before we know it and the only white stuff we will see is SPF 50!

 

Stay warm!

11/15/2022:

Hello Kindred, 

We just received the following notice regarding recycling pickup for today. If your tote is not emptied today, please leave it out for service tomorrow, Wednesday, November 16, 2022.‌ ‌ 

​

​

11/15/2022: 

Hello Kindred! 

Due to a water main repair on Sheyenne St., traffic will be reduced to one-lane near the 200 block. Please slow down and take extra care when driving near this area.

Just a friendly reminder that your city utility bills are due today! 

Thanks!

​

​

11/9/2022: 

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

 

Yup, the white stuff is (probably) coming – it’s unavoidable. Gas up those shovels and start stretching. Looks like we could receive anywhere from zero to 40 inches of snow!

 

A few reminders:

1. PLEASE clear your alleys of any obstacles!! Leave AMPLE room for the City’s snow removal equipment and also the garbage trucks. Contain your property within your property lines.   

2. Vehicles must be removed from streets after any snowfall event so snow removal activities are not hindered. Any vehicle found in violation can be towed and impounded at the owner's expense and, in addition, may be fined.

3. It is the responsibility of the owners/occupants of the property to remove snow and ice on public sidewalks as soon as possible after a snowfall to avoid incurring snow removal fees from the city. 

4. Moving or blowing snow onto city streets, public property, or any public right of way is not allowed. If streets have already been cleared and the city has to return to clean up snow from your property, applicable fees could be assessed to your property. 

5. Please do not use private/commercial snow removal equipment to clear city streets. As helpful as it may seem, you may be liable if something is damaged. 

6. To ensure uninterrupted mail delivery, property owners/occupants must remove snow and ice around mailboxes. Contact the Kindred Post Office for their rules and regulations on winter mail delivery.

8. Talk to your children about snow pile safety. Safety is always on the minds of snow removal drivers, but when snow piles increase in size, the ability to see children playing on/in the snow piles can be difficult. 

 

STAY SAFE, KINDRED!
