Again this year, the East Grand Forks Police Department will accept food or cash donations instead of monetary fines for certain parking violations through December.
Anyone receiving a calendar parking or snow emergency parking ticket may “pay” their fine with a donation of five non-perishable food items, which will go to the East Grand Forks food shelf at holiday time.
Or you can pay the fine, and direct that money to go to the food shelf.
Donations can be dropped off at the E-G-F P-D at 520 Demers.
And the P-D says, anyone can make a donation, even if you don’t get a ticket!
The program was approved by the city council.
