Greenbush Police Department (merged / disbanded)
This changed. Likely no longer operating as its own department, though I could not get a definitive current statement from the city. Evidence: (1) On the City of Greenbush's official site, the 'Public Safety' section's only sub-pages are 'Fire Department' and 'Animal Control' -- there is no Police Department sub-page or listed chief/officers, even though the boilerplate Public Safety blurb still mentions a 'Police Department' generically. (2) An Oct. 18, 2021 Greenbush City Council meeting-minutes PDF (posted on the city's own site) states it would cost the city 'well over $100,000 per year to reopen the city police department,' and notes residents can request an MN DNR officer for ATV complaints -- both implying the department was already closed by 2021. I could not confirm on any official city or county source what currently patrols Greenbush; the most likely coverage is the Roseau County Sheriff's Office (604 5th Ave SW, Roseau, MN 56751, 218-463-1421), which patrols the rest of the county, but I found no document stating an explicit Greenbush contract. CAUTION: third-party aggregators (Yelp 'Greenbush Police Dept', Discover Policing) still list an active-looking entry at 248 4th St N / (218) 782-2123 -- these could not be verified as current or official and may reflect a stale or defunct listing themselves; do not publish that number without a direct call to the city (218-782-2570) to confirm current status before print.
