Bismarck voters will decide on Nov. 6 if they want to make the Bismarck Civic Center more convention-friendly through $70 million in new hospitality taxes.

The ballot asks if voters want to add a 1.5 percent motel, liquor and restaurant tax and a 1 percent lodging tax to help with $90 million in planned improvements by changing the city’s home rule charter. If approved, the new taxes will be paid over 20 years.
