In Roseau, Minnesota we are not immune from the occasional scam and we want to make everyone aware of a counterfeit scam that has been happening in our area as well as many other areas.

If your going to take cash in for goods or use cash for purchases, make sure that you are looking it over to verify that it is not fake. Check for security features such as watermarks, holograms and microprinting. Currency that we have seen also featured the words, "MOTION PICTURE PURPOSES."

If you receive counterfeit currency, be sure to document the incident and contact law enforcement immediately.

With winter and snow upon us we would like to take this time to remind everyone of the city ordinance regarding snow removal.

§ 72.09 SNOW REMOVAL FROM STREETS.
(A) Definition. A SNOW REMOVAL PERIOD, as used in this section and between the dates of November 1 through April 1 of the year next following, begins when there has been an accumulation of
one-half (1/2) inch of snow and ends when all streets referred to have been plowed curb-to-curb.
(B) Parking prohibitions.
During a snow removal period it is unlawful to park or leave standing a vehicle:
(1) On any street after 1:30 a.m. and before the street has been cleared of snow from curb to curb.
(C) Snow emergency.
The Chief of Police and/or the City Superintendent are empowered to declare that a snow emergency exists in the city. When such a snow emergency is declared, vehicular parking shall,
notwithstanding the provisions of divisions (A) and (B) of this section, be prohibited on any street until the snow emergency condition is declared to be terminated by either of the above named city officials.

Any violation of this ordinance can result in a parking citation as well as removal of your vehicle from the city street.

Hopefully we can all work together to keep our streets clean and safe for everyone to use.

Thank you and have a great day.
