If all goes according to plans, there will be a new tenant in the former Dakota Heartland facility that has been sitting vacant for several years on the north side of 13th Avenue East, west of 6th Street East. Integrated Health Marketing, which will do business as a medical clinic facility, was granted a planned unit development amendment and a conditional use permit by West Fargo City Commissioners Monday night for an illuminated, freestanding sign with electronic message board at the site that will include staff names as well as promote information pertinent to the site.
