Kenneth Gutschick Keep look out if you see it when you go to work.
We *reaaally* wanted to delay posting anything related to the "S" word (lol), but with the flakes in the sky today, we are woefully reminded that winter is right around the corner.
We would like to take this time to remind the public about the city's 48-hr parking ordinance, as well as our NEW RV PARKING ORDINANCE. As passed earlier this year, the RV parking ordinance requires owners of all RVs, trailers, boats, or campers to remove them from public streets within residential areas by NOVEMBER 1st. The RV parking ban lasts all winter, and is lifted on March 31st in the spring. Any of those remaining on the street during the ban months are subject to a $15 ticket, and will be given 48-hours to be removed or otherwise be subject to tow at the owner's expense.
All motor vehicles are subject to 48-hour parking regulations year-round. This means, all vehicles parked on a public street must move every 48-hours or be subject to a $15 ticket and also subject to tow within 48-hours if not moved after ticketing. Moving parked vehicles is especially crucial in winter months, as it greatly assists our street maintenance crews in keeping our streets clear from snow and ice.
Thank you in advance for your assistance!
These are all very good points, which leads me to a question. This summer I parked my camper in front of my house on a Wednesday so my family could get it ready for Friday while I was at work. A female officer arrives at my house Thursday and instructs my daughter I need to move it or it will be towed. Not impressed when an officer doesn’t know the law and then threatens my property.
If only you guys actually towed vehicles after 48 hours. There's a vehicle sitting in front of my house that's had a warning sticker on it for over a year now. 🙄🙄
Shit, they’ll plow snow around things all winter and never ticket them.
When did the city start doing snow removal on streets. If it's not a main road it never gets done
If you all would crack down on the 48hr parking on the vehicles that would be nice
If anyone needs, or has interest in a place to park their RV/Camper/Boat/Trailer, etc.., I have secured outdoor storage available for $30 monthly. Pheasant Country Storage LLC, 701-290-0531 or message me for more information
Yall gonna write a bunch of tickets on 1st Ave SE hopefully
Thank you Country House!"Evil is powerless if the good are unafraid." —President Ronald Reagan

BPD is looking for the below vehicle and individual.***UPDATE 2*** Mariner and Yellowbird are in custody. Thank you for your assistance!
***UPDATE*** The vehicle listed has been located. We are still searching for suspects.
Bismarck Police Seeking Wanted Subject
Bismarck Police are looking for Mardell Mariner, 20, of Mandan after he struck three vehicles and an officer earlier today.
On October 7th, 2020, Bismarck Police Officers and the US Marshals Fugitive Task Force were attempting to locate Mariner on several active felony warrants, including Burglary, Reckless Endangerment and Fleeing. Mariner’s vehicle was located in a parking lot in the 1100 Blk of West Turnpike Ave around 1:00 p.m. unoccupied.
When officers began to approach, Mariner was exiting the building and fled into his vehicle. Officers gave loud verbal commands for him to stop. Mariner began to drive the vehicle, striking a BPD unmarked car, a US Marshals vehicle and a BPD squad car. While Mariner was fleeing in the vehicle, he also struck the leg of one of the officers on scene.
Mariner is driving a light blue 2000’s model Chrysler 300 with a large black stripe down the center. The vehicle will have damage to the front end and a “Bismarck Motor Company” paper placard on the front. It is believed he is with Katherine Yellowbird, 20, who also has active warrants for Burglary, Failure to Appear and Bond Revocation.
The officer that was struck sustained minor injuries.
If you have any information on either of these subjects or the vehicle, please DO NOT APPROACH and contact local law enforcement. Any information can be sent in anonymously by texting keyword BISPD and tip to 847411 (tip411). Anonymous web tips can also be submitted through the department’s website at www.bismarcknd.gov/police.
