We l c o m e to t h e C i t y o f Shakopee! Whether you’ve

lived here your whole life or only a short while, you know Shakopee is a great place to call home. From our friendly downtown to metropolitan proximity, we’re a community that embraces our small-town roots while providing a wonderful quality of life for residents.

Founded in 1857 as a trading post along the Minnesota River, Shakopee has been home to Native Americans for thousands of years. In recent decades, the City has seen dramatic growth in population, businesses and amenities and we are dedicated to keep moving this community forward.

Located in “RiverSouth, Land of Big Fun,” Shakopee residents know how to have a good time. Right in our backyard, you’ll find some of the state’s most popular

entertainment attractions, including Canterbury Park horseracing track and Valleyfair amusement park. The City’s outdoor aquatic park, SandVenture, is the place to be on warm summer afternoons, and with more than 1,300 acres of parks and 60 miles of trails, we’re a city of all seasons. Plus, our close proximity to Minneapolis-St. Paul provides easy access to the amenities of a large metropolitan area.

Shakopee is truly a multi-faceted city. Home to one of the state’s largest business parks, Shakopee’s strong commercial-industrial tax base helps keep property taxes low and housing affordable. We’ve recently welcomed several new businesses, such as Shutterfly and Datacard, while our riverfront downtown was designated a Minnesota Main Street in 2014.

At its heart, Shakopee is a

wonderful place to raise a family. The community offers excellent public and private schools that offer high-quality educational opportunities from pre-K to adult. The growing Shakopee School District serves more than 7,600 students in 11 buildings. The area is served by a comprehensive medical campus, St. Francis Regional Medical Center, and top-notch health care professionals. In 2014, the Minneapolis VA opened a community-outreach clinic in Shakopee.

We’re also a civic-minded community, home to the state’s largest Jaycees club and numerous service organizations. The Shakopee Diversity Alliance celebrates the City’s many strong cultural ties while our churches provide a place for worship and fellowship.

I hope you enjoy living in Shakopee as much as I do. If you

have any questions or would like more information about Shakopee, our City staff would be pleased to assist you. Please visit us online at www.ShakopeeMN.gov, call us at (952) 233-9300 or stop in at City Hall, 129 Holmes St. S.

— Mayor Brad Tabke

Of course local farmers markets are popular from June until October each year. There are several in the area, including Tuesdays at St. Francis Regional Medical Center, Fridays at the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community Center in neighboring Prior Lake, and Thursdays at the corner of Hwy. 101 and Marschall Road.

If you’re craving a jumpstart to your morning, Shakopee is home to two Caribou Coffee locations, Donut Connection (grab some donuts while you’re at it), the Shakopee Bakery and Coffee Ta Cream, which is located at Shakopee Town Square.

And don’t forget about the Scott County Fair held in nearby Jordan or the annual Renaissance F e s t i v a l h e l d o n t h e b o r d e r o f Shakopee and Chaska.

As Scott County continues to lead the state in popula-tion growth, progress is evident throughout the community. Over the last several years, Scott County has managed to keep its budget in check while still investing in its resi-dents’ future: from the acquisition of new parks and green spaces to developing highly successful tran-sit partnerships (the BlueXpress commuter line and the SmartLink transit cooperative), from the con-struction of two new mixed-use library facilities to installing a high-tech fiber optic ring, Scott County is truly committed to its new vision: “Where individuals, families, and businesses thrive.”

Residents are encouraged to

keep current on County news through viewing Board meetings (available online in “real time” and on-demand), visiting the website (www.co.scott.mn.us), tuning in to local government access cable for meeting coverage and other pro-gramming, following the county on Facebook and reading the award-winning resident newsletter (The Scott County SCENE). In addition, you can become more directly in-volved by volunteering with vari-ous community groups, serving on a citizen advisory committee, or by attending County board meet-ings and workshops, which are held on most Tuesdays at 9 a.m. (please visit the website for up-to-date schedule information).

The Metropolitan Council is the regional planning organization for the seven-county Twin Cities area. The council advocates for vital communities and a competi-tive region. It runs the regional bus system, collects and treats wastewater and manages water resources preservation, plans regional parks and administers funds that provide housing oppor-tunities for low- and moderate-income individuals and families.

The council serves the metro-politan counties of Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott and Washington. The region en-compasses 189 cities and town-ships and a population of 2.85 mil-lion. It is divided into 16 districts. The governor appoints a repre-sentative for each, as well as the council chairperson.

The council’s website provides information about the region and regional services. The site has current data on aviation, demo-graphics, the economy, housing, land use, parks and open space, transportation, and water quality

KICK BACKWhat better place to relax than in the river valley?

From parks on the Minnesota River to intramural sports to SandVenture Aquatic Park, Shakopee residents can always find

a way to kick back and relax.What’s not to enjoy about living in the river valley? The riverside

parks in Shakopee offer beautiful views, especially in autumn, and even a simple drive across the river and up the road to nearby Eden Prairie is bound to be a scenic trip.

Residents are fortunate to have a local water park owned and operated by the city. SandVenture Aquatic Park has a 300-foot waterslide, along with two smaller slides and a unique sand-bottom, chlorinated pool.

When it comes to getting involved, there are countless local clubs, organizations and volunteer groups for residents to join. Cyclists can get involved with the Great Scott Cycling Club, while book lovers may want to join the Friends of the Shakopee Library.

Interested in sports? Shakopee Parks and Recreation runs a few intramural teams, and kids have access to nearly every mainstream sport by way of local sports associations.

OPPORTUNITIES ABOUNDLivin’ it up in one of the fastest-growing cities in the metro

Quality of life is such an important aspect to consider when it comes to settling down and making someplace your home.

You don’t have to look far to see that Shakopee residents are happy and content with their quality of life, especially considering that residential development has surged ahead in recent years.

Today, it is estimated that more than 38,750 people call Shakopee home — making it one of the fastest-growing cities in the Twin Cities metro area.

The community offers both private and public schools, which work together to provide a good foundation for children. The Shakopee School District serves more than 7,400 students in Shakopee, Savage, Prior Lake and surrounding townships. The district has five elementary schools for grades kindergarten through fifth grade, a sixth grade center, two junior high schools for grades 7 through 9 and one high school for grades 10 through 12.

The district is currently working towards a more technological approach to teaching and learning by using a pilot program to put devices in the hands of all sixth graders. They hope to expand the program if it goes well.

The district also offers a variety of early childhood programs from infants to preschool families; district officials are planning to expand the early childhood programming for the 2015-16 school year.

The city is ripe with resources for senior citizens, as well, including a n u m b e r o f r e t i r e m e n t h o m e communities and assisted living facilities.

Lifestyle FocusIf you’re looking to get more involved in animal-loving events, the area has a number of rescue and adoption agencies seeking volunteers.

RESCUE MEArea organizations are committed to rescuing animals in need

Shakopee is served by the Carver-Scott Humane Society, which rescues dogs and cats in the southwest suburbs. Each year, the

humane society rescues approximately 350 animals and finds them permanent homes after being taken from poor or outdoor conditions.

The Shakopee Public Library also hosts a reading program in which children can read to trained therapy animals for a set amount of time to increase their literacy skills and confidence in reading.

The city of Shakopee is opening a new dog park in the fall of 2014, as well. Southbridge Community Park will be located at 7101 Southbridge Parkway and will have a 10-acre all-breed park area and a half-acre park for smaller dogs. The park will be the city’s first dog park, so make sure to grab a tennis ball and a bone and head out for some fun with your best puppy friend!
