St. Louis County Public Works re-opened six more roads Wednesday as water levels in area rivers and streams continue to recede. However, with more snow and rain in the forecast, motorists are urged to use caution in the event road conditions deteriorate again. Anyone encountering unsafe road conditions should call 911 to report the location.

The St. Louis County Assessor’s Department is reminding property owners that Local Board of Appeal and Equalization meetings are happening this month and next, and to review their 2024 Estimated Market Value (EMV) notification in case they have questions or concerns.

Water levels are receding and repairs are being made. This allowed St. Louis County Public Works to reopen 10 roads Tuesday, including Highway 29 north of Floodwood.
