Which pipes Robbinsdale owners look after
Robbinsdale's city code (700.01) makes the resident or owner responsible for the water service from the main to the meter, including the corporation stop at the main and the curb stop and curb box in the boulevard. The city points out that other places own the curb stop themselves, but Robbinsdale does not.
Public Works is at 4601 Toledo Ave N and answers 763-531-1202 on weekdays from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. For after-hours emergencies, including sewer backups, the city asks you to call the non-emergency police number, 763-531-1220, which will contact Public Works.
