Roseville, MN Public Conduct: Public Marijuana Use (2026)

Chapter 510 of the Roseville City Code, Smoking and Vaping on City Properties, carries the city's public-use rule for cannabis. Section 510.01(b) says no person shall smoke or vape any product, including tobacco and tobacco-related products, cannabis flower, cannabis products, and hemp-derived consumer products, or use any tobacco related or electronic delivery devices, at a specified city property. The terms cannabis flower, cannabis products, lower-potency hemp edibles and hemp-derived consumer products take the definitions in Minn. Stat. § 342.01.

The ban is tied to place. Specified city properties are all city parks, parking lots adjacent to city parks, and trails within city parks, plus the main city campus: city hall, the fire station, the maintenance facility, the skating center and oval and adjacent parking lots, and the license center strip mall and adjacent parking lot. Subsection (a)(2) excludes, pursuant to Minn. Stat. § 152.0263, subd. 5, a private residence including the person's curtilage or yard, private property not generally accessible by the public, and the premises of an establishment or event licensed to permit on-site consumption of cannabis flower, cannabis products, lower-potency hemp edibles or hemp-derived consumer products.

The city's cannabis event rules repeat the point in a licensed setting. Section 317.08(g) says no person shall smoke or vape any product, including cannabis flower, cannabis products and lower-potency hemp products, or use any cannabis or lower-potency hemp related or electronic delivery devices, at a temporary cannabis event. Chapter 510 names no separate enforcing officer, and the violation is handled through Chapter 102 as a petty misdemeanor.
