Agendas and Minutes
Winter Parking
Please remember that the City of Lake Elmo has a winter parking ordinance
that prohibits parking on city streets from November 1st through March
31st between 2:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. This gives crews a window of time for
clearing streets curb to curb more efficiently. Thank you for your understanding
and cooperation!
Drop Box Available
The new City Center building has a
convenient drop box located on the front of
the building.
Utility payments, permit applications and
other documents may be dropped in the
box during or after office hours.
ADOPT A STORM DRAIN
PROGRAM
Storm drains serve as direct pathways
to our lakes rivers, and streams, and
natural materials (grass clippings,
leaves, and dirt) can act as pollutants
once they go down the drain. If you
live in an area with storm drains, you
can join a statewide effort to help keep
our storm drains clean through the
Adopt a Drain program.

determining the efficacy of counties and cities in
providing services and measure residents' opinions of
those services.
