Fargo saving hundreds of thousands due to lighter than average snow totals

(Fargo, ND) -- The City of Fargo is saving thousands of dollars this year which would normally go toward snow removal efforts.

This year's winter has been unusually mild in North Dakota, leaving little snow to be cleared from the roads. As a result, the city has saved more than 280,000 dollars compared to what they spent by this time the previous winter.
