Plowing, Blowing and dumping on State, County, City & Township Roads

12/12/2025

This year we are already experiencing significant snowfall, even though it is only mid-December. As a reminder, please be courteous and remember that it is both illegal and harmful to our city streets—streets the City invests considerable funds to maintain—to plow, blow, or push snow onto them.

This issue has been highlighted in multiple newspaper articles and shared widely on social media. For clarity, we are including the relevant Minnesota Statutes, which classify this activity as a misdemeanor.

Thank you for helping us keep our community safe and our streets in good condition!!
