@rationaldoge after a bit of searching I found a map in a screen grab of what I’m sure was a very exciting 5 hour meeting of government officials.

It was much easier to find in this video than I expected. There was a little ask AI button that answered the question “At what point is devils lake discussed?” to which it replied “The discussion about Devil's Lake State Park begins at (1:27:20).”
