Ramsey County does not paint or regulate street curbs — curb markings are a city function. In St. Paul only the city marks curbs (no-parking, loading, fire zones); residents may not paint public curbs themselves.
Curb-color parking markings on public streets are installed and controlled by cities, not Ramsey County. In St. Paul, curb and pavement markings are placed by Public Works under the city's parking and traffic authority; private individuals may not paint or alter public curbs, and posted or painted restrictions (no-parking, loading, fire lane) are enforced as parking violations. Ramsey County's own authority over curbs is limited to county-owned facilities such as regional-park lots, where parking is allowed only in designated areas. If you want a curb marked or a restriction changed on a St. Paul street, request it through the city rather than painting it yourself.
Parking against a posted or painted curb restriction is a St. Paul parking violation (ticket and possible tow); unauthorized curb painting is handled by the city.
