Minnesota Town vanishes from google street images.
The city of North Oaks which is present in Minnesota is currently not available in the Google street images. Minutes of the City Council's Jan. 10 meeting indicate that Google sent a driver in a camera-equipped vehicle to record images of the city's streets last summer, in violation of the city's trespassing ordinance. Mayor Tom Watson then contacted Google representatives and asked that they remove Street View of North Oaks images from Google Maps. Requests for image removal that have been publicly reported have tended to come from U.S. or foreign governments. The Pentagon, for instance, issued a memorandum on Feb. 28 ordering military sites not to allow Google's image capturing efforts.
