Please Verify Your Address
BEFORE DOWNLOADING CITY OF LONG LAKE PERMIT APPLICATIONS, PLEASE VISIT HENNEPIN COUNTY'S PROPERTY INFORMATION WEBSITE AT http://www16.co.hennepin.mn.us/pins/ TO VERIFY THAT THE ADDRESS YOU WOULD LIKE TO PULL A PERMIT FOR IS IN THE MUNICIPALITY OF LONG LAKE. Postal districts in Long Lake, Orono and Medina are actually different than municipal boundaries. Many addresses that are listed as "Long Lake, MN 55356" actually are NOT in the City of Long Lake; but are rather in Orono or Medina. When you are double-checking addresses on the Hennepin County website listed above, check to see that the "Municipality" (3rd line down on search results) does say Long Lake.
If you are unable to access the internet and need assistance verifying an address, please call us at 952.473.6961 for assistance.
