Star Tribune Article

The above link will bring you to the recent Star Tribune article about the Shakopee City Council Race.

I will add, that my comments regarding Southbridge were taken out to context. I had mentioned I would like to see the two potential projects in the works to actually happen. The City Council has no control of that. The question asked me if there were any projects that are stalled ect.

Another award won for Shakopee!

Last night, Shakopee, MN City Government was one of 17 cities in the nation to receive an ICMA (International City/County Managment Association) Voice of the People award!

Shakopee received the award for transparency in our budget and fiscal responsibility.

This is the second time in five years we have been one of a select group of cities to be recognized with a Voice of the People award. No other city has been recognized twice!

Bloomington was the only other recognized city in MN.

Our finance director, Nate Reinhardt, and his team do a fantastic job!
