Zeeland weather and a seasonal business

The nearest NOAA station with 1991-2020 climate normals, Eureka, is 18 miles from Zeeland. It records an average high of 82°F in July and an average low of 2°F in January. Precipitation totals about 20 inches a year, with June the wettest month. The high reaches 90°F or more on about 14 days a year, and the low falls to freezing or below on about 179 days. Cold winters bring furnace repair, snow removal, roofing and auto service, and the first freeze sends everyone searching at once.

Paperwork and rules for North Dakota businesses online

Before your website goes live, it helps to have the basics of the business in order.

• A sole proprietor or other business using a ‘doing business as’ name registers a trade name with the Secretary of State through the FirstStop portal ($25). Registration gives exclusive rights to the name within North Dakota only and must be renewed every five years. Official source
• North Dakota’s state sales tax rate is 5% for most retail sales, and cities and counties may levy their own sales and use taxes on top of it. North Dakota Office of State Tax Commissioner
