The next council meeting will be held on Wednesday May 9, 2012 at 6:15 p.m. at City Hall.

The 2011 Drinking Water Confidence Report is available upon request at City Hall.

Please read very important – The city has always had a utility disconnection policy for non-payment and it will be strictly enforced so you must pay your utilities EVERY month to avoid disconnection.

The City of Round Lake has a leash ordinance that prohibits your dog from running loose at any time.   If your dog is running loose, anyone may contact the sheriff’s department.  All dogs must be licensed by the City of Round Lake.  You can receive a ticket for not having a dog license. 

PLEASE don’t let your dog dirty up the park—–after all—–the entire park is for children to play in.

Also don’t let your dog dirty on other people’s property when you are walking your dog.  They don’t appreciate it.  If your dog dirties, pick it –up.

The City is receiving complaints regarding yards that have become cluttered and messy.  It would be appreciated if you could pickup those items that don’t look like grass or trees.

The City is also receiving complaints regarding junk cars sitting in yards.  PLEASE get rid of them.

Budgets for GAS ONLY will be starting in the month of June.  The Budget Plan will be from June to next April.  The Budget Plan is paying equal monthly payments.  If you have been on the Budget Plan in the past year, you will automatically be set up again, unless we hear different from you.  If you are interested in getting on the Budget Plan, call City Hall right away.

Reminder the City Park is a tobacco free facility.

 Reminder any resident doing any new construction, removal, or repair work (that includes putting up a fence or car port) MUST get a building permit.  The council approves this permit at their meeting so you must have one filled out before the meeting.

THE BURN SITE IS FOR BURNABLES ONLY!!  If you see anyone throwing out anything else like appliances, furniture, tires, etc. PLEASE let City Hall know who is doing it.  Your help will keep the burn site open.  It would be much appreciated.

Nobles County Law Enforcement will blow the Tornado Siren on our local water tower ANYTIME there is a warning in the COUNTY.
