On that page, it states Dakota County encourages public use of this GIS data. “The County Board of Commissioners adopted a policy of free and open GIS data, in collaboration with the other six metropolitan counties in the Twin Cities. More information on this initiative is available from MetroGIS. “ The page that in links to is the hub for all this licensing stuff. In the documents it defines Open as “no legal agreements or other conditional encumbrances required to access the data” and “no constrain on the use of the data once acquired by the user”.
Do they have to explicitly say CT/ODbl on the website or does it suffice they link to the policy created by all counties in the metro that says, free take it, no contraints?

Can you ask them to update their website to make permission to copy and incorporate clear, without any additional requirements, so that it's compatible with the CT/ODbL? The terms quoted by Rory and incompatible with OSM.
