FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT REQUEST (click link for form):  Freedom of Information Act request forms are used to obtain copies of reports, photographs or other documents generated by the Negaunee Police Department on investigations other than UD-10 Crash Reports.

  1. In the space provided at the top of Page 1, indicate specifically what you are looking for.  The information you give will dictate what is compiled for you.  If you have dates and/or names please include them here.
  2. Just under this area is where you will provide your personal and contact information.
  3. The bottom half of Page 1 is for office use; however, you may want to read it over as you are responsible for charges incurred by the compilation of the documents you request.  Page 2 should also be reviewed before you submit your request.
  4. Return the form to the Negaunee Police Department in person.  If you cannot come to the Police Department in person, please call (906)475-4154 to inquire about arrangements to fax or mail.
  5. A letter will be sent to you within 5 full business days from the date your request is received.  This letter will indicate either when you can pick up your documents and how much they will cost, or that your request was denied.  If your request is denied, you will be supplied with the reason and alternate methods of obtaining the documents if applicable.

BICYCLE REGISTRATION (click link for form):  Bicycles belonging to residents of Negaunee can be registered free of charge with the Police Department.

  1. After printing out the form, fill in the information spaces as completely as possible, leaving the "License Number" space blank as this will be assigned upon receipt by the Police Department.  The serial number (or Owner Assigned Number) is mandatory for identification purposes.
  2. Once the form is complete, return it to the Police Department in person.  At that time you will receive a license sticker for the bicycle.

NSF/NO-ACCOUNT CHECK FORMS (click link for forms):  As of 10/31/2011 NSF/No Account checks passed in Negaunee will be handled a little differently. The Marquette County Prosecutor's Office has started a Check Enforcement Program designed to encourage check writers to make good on dishonored checks prior to getting law enforcement involved. Guidelines for handling these types of checks along with a Check Complaint Form can be accessed by clicking on the above link.  Questions about this program should be directed to the Marquette County Prosecutor's Office at 1(877)858-5923 or you can find more information on their website.

Per the Marquette County Prosecutor's Office, not all checks are eligible for this program:

  • Checks passed outside Marquette County
  • Checks older than 180 days
  • Post-dated, pre-dated or altered checks
  • Checks passed when both parties knew there were insufficient funds at the time of the transaction.
  • Checks written toward a pre-existing debt
  • Counterfeit or forged checks (these should be brought to directly to law enforcement for investigation and possible prosecution)

If the bad check you are seeking help with falls into any of the above categories (excluding counterfeit or forged checks), you may choose to seek relief through an attorney, a collection agency or a civil proceeding such as Small Claims Court.

PARADE PERMIT or STREET USE PERMIT (click link for form) After printing the form, complete all fields.  Sign the form and bring it to the Police Department for review.  If your application is approved you will receive a signed copy in the mail.

CITY COMPLAINT FORM   (click link for form):  After printing the form, complete all fields.  Bring the completed form to either the City Manager's Office or the Chief of Police for review and further action.
