To appeal a blight ticket, call 218-421-7155 within 7 days of issuance to schedule a hearing with a hearing officer.

Hibbing Police Officers and PBA Technicians will tow a vehicle if it:

• Is blocking a public road or alleyway
• Has been parked on a public road for over 24 hours
• Is creating hazardous conditions
• Has been deemed an abandoned vehicle through the blight process

A blight notification is sent to property owners within the urban PBA enforcement area informing them that they have either abandoned property or abandoned vehicles that need to be removed or remedied. View our Blight ordinance for more information.

Please submit this form to have a PBA Technician investigate the property. Photos are required to submit a valid report.

Our PBA and Code Enforcement Technicians must follow a legal process to clean blight properties. This takes time and resources. After the blight notice, 14 days to remedy, and any extensions that may have been granted, the PBA can then schedule a clean-up. Factors that can delay clean up include but are not limited to; legal issues, Public Works or Contractor scheduling conflicts, weather, etc. We may also postpone a clean-up if the property owner has started to clean the property.

As instructed by our Blight Ordinance, our enforcement procedure is as follows:

1. The property is inspected by a PBA technician to confirm there is a blight violation.
2. A notice is sent to the listed property taxpayer and owner as well as the current residence.
3. Seven (7) days are given to remedy the situation. An extension may be granted if requested and reasonable.
4. If the violation has not been remedied after seven (7) days, an administrative citation will be issued to the violator and provide them seven (7) more days to remedy the violation.
5. If the violation has not been remedied after seven (7) days of the issuance of the administrative citation, a criminal citation is issued.
6. The enforcement officer shall move forward with the process to have the violation remedied by means of removal using City resources.
7. A day will be scheduled for city employees and/or contractors to clean the property under instruction of the Code Enforcment Technician.
8. The article(s) will be destroyed, and the salvage value, if any, will be retained by the City to be applied against the cost of removal and destruction. All expenses incurred shall be a lien upon the real estate. 

Please fill and submit this Form to let the PBAs know. We will then inspect the property and contact you if further action is needed.

Whether you have a DAMA Box or an old version Knox Box, you will need to follow the same instructions for purchasing a new Knox Box. If you already have a Knox Box, use your existing Knox Box customer account. If you currently have a DAMA Box, you will need to create a New Customer Account for Knox Box.

Simply call or email the Fire Marshal to set up a time to access the Knox Box and update the keys.

The following Keys are required if applicable to your building.

1. Master exterior entrance or grand master key;
2. Master interior including mechanical room, boiler room, and electrical room;
3. Fire alarm panel/enunciator and pull stations;
4. Sprinkler riser room
5. Each key shall be placed separately on a single ring stating its use.   

The Hibbing Fire Department will not access a key box to unlock a property for someone whom may have forgotten their keys to their building. Keys will only be accessed for emergencies, key updates, or owner approved training or inspection.

The Fire Department is the only Entity who has access to the Knox Box. The key we have is locked in our own lock box and is checked daily to ensure that the key is secure and present. We do not use the key system to access buildings for anything other than an emergency situation. 

Should a commercial building in Hibbing fail to be equipped with such key box, the forcible entry policy shall be implemented. The Fire department shall give a responding key holder ten (10) minutes to arrive unless exigent circumstance require earlier implementation of forcible entry.

Both Boxes are a "lock box system".  We have both systems in our community.

Knox Boxes are typically black and larger in size.     

DAMA Boxes are red, small and have an FD logo on them.  

They can be recessed or externally mounted.

Contact the Hibbing Fire Marshal if you need more information.

The key boxes will be accesses only under exigent circumstances where access to the building is required for medical, fire, or other such emergency. At no time shall an employee access the keys in a key box unless under exigence without the owners written permission or presence.

There are over 400 commercial buildings and 100 residential buildings that require access for emergencies. There is no way for us to effectively manage and search for multiple codes, keys or other access information when we are responding to an emergency. This would cause chaos, prolonged, and unsafe emergency response.

Depending on your needs and building type (residential vs commercial) Boxes can cost anywhere from $200-$1,000 each. The wide range in price will depend on if you want your Box to tie into your building's security system, size and other custom options.

Remember, these boxes will last upward 50 years. That's only $4 per year for a low end Knox Box. Replacing a new Exterior door is on average $1,000-$3,000, making a Knox Box purchase a much cheaper option than replacing doors that were forcibly entered. 

Parking tickets can be paid online. If you wish to contest the ticket, directions are on the backside.

Visit our Citizen Connect page, and search for your ticket with your license plate number.

Per our City Ordinances, Calendar/Alternate Parking is when you can only park on one side of the street based on the calendar date. To see what streets Calendar Parking applies to, click here. Calendar parking is enforced year-round from 6pm to 6pm. For example: On odd days, before 6pm, you park on the side of the street that has odd house numbers. After 6pm you would park on the even side of the street because the next calendar day is even.

Please fill out this form. If the parking violation is causing hazardous conditions, please call 911.

As noted on the bottom of your parking ticket, if payment is not received within 7 days, an additional $5.00 charge will be assessed. A $40.00 additional penalty will be added if you fail to pay within 28 days of issue date. If payment is not received within 60 days, the total amount due will be sent to a collection agency.

Your ticket will list your violation. Look below the violation for any added notes that may describe why you received it. If you are unsure what the violation means, please view our Parking Enforcement page and click on the violation you received to bring you to the ordinance that describes the violation.

To appeal a parking ticket, please visit our Citizen Connect page with your ticket number or license plate number. Click  under the original fine amount and follow the prompts.
