He 32 explained the timetable leading up to the meeting: On April 16, the department received information 33 that the offender may be living in the city; on April 17, police officers observed the offender at the 34 Holiday gas station and an investigation was opened that led to issuance of a search warrant to track 35 the individual. From May 3 through May 9, surveillance was done by the police department and the 36 Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. As a result the offender was arrested for improper 37 registration as he had not correctly notified authorities of his residence. The process of informing 38 residents began and the hearing was held. The law allows offenders to live wherever they chose but 39 they are required to register their address and the city has the right to notify residents.
