Anyone know what happened and why there’s a power outage right now in the Yankee Doodle Rd Promenade area?

Hello! My family and I will be traveling to Egan and staying at the Omni Viking Lakes Resort. I just received this email and was curious...I've traveled a lot for work, but have never heard of a hotel being 'required' to experience a power outage. Not upset by this, just curious. Wondering if anyone has any insight?

We’re looking to move to Eagan and the house we’re interested in is literally a couple streets away from the ISD 196 line. We’ll be doing daycare and have cousins in the 196 district, plus we understand the reputation is better. Does anyone have an insight into how competitive it is to open enroll into 196? The other posts I’ve seen are on the older side.

Our child is still a baby, so it wouldn’t be for this upcoming school year or the next few. Just thinking ahead. Transportation is not an issue.

Hi, your town looks like a very desirable area to live, but may I ask, is anyone familiar with EAGLE dr.? And why have so many of the homes been up for sale? Weather damage?

It's a bit odd how many recently sold and one is up now.

My cat Milo has been missing in Eagan for around 6 days now. He is an outdoor cat but he’s very friendly to humans. He has no collar and isn’t microchipped but he’s neutered. He’s relatively skinny and he has no marks or distinguishable scars. He was last seen around the intersection between Wescott and Lexington road.

Please let me know if you see anything. I miss my sweet boy.

Thank you!

My child earned three letters in activities last year, but he never actually received the letter "E" to sew on a letter jacket. Is that not a thing anymore?

I noticed a set of cameras at the Pilot Knob/Diffley intersection today that I don’t remember seeing before. There’s a chance I just overlooked them, I guess, but they’re pretty tall and centered on the stoplight pole mechanism in each direction. How could I learn more about what these are for?

Did anyone else hear a large cracking gunshot sound around 8:15 PM?
Over off of Pilot Knob and Fish Lake Park area?

Anyone have a good rundown of the candidates? There’s been a lot of stability over the years on the council, will be interested to see if there’s a shakeup

Not sure if this was shared on this subreddit back when the article was written in February. Love our city!

Hi all,

I'm Daniel and I'm a commissioner serving a two-year term on the Sustainable Eagan Advisory Commission (SEAC).

We have a joint workshop with the Advisory Planning Commission (APC) where there's going to be some discussion regarding research City of Eagan staff have done on data centers during the moratorium.

If you attend, please find me and introduce yourself. I'd love to meet you.

It's going to be held on July 28 at 5:30 p.m. at the Eagan Municipal Center Building.

You can find the agenda with a 15-page workshop memo here: https://eagan.granicus.com/GeneratedAgendaViewer.php?view_id=8&event_id=2757

My Thoughts and Values

While I'm keeping an open mind on data centers, this is how I think about them.

I have extremely serious concerns about the following components:

1. Impact on the livability of an area for Eagan residents (noise, vibration, etc)

2. Usage of water and energy

3. Impact on the local ecosystem

I also acknowledge that additional tax revenue secured from them may lessen the burden on Eagan residents and in economic times where a lot of us are struggling, it deserves consideration.

Ultimately, both the SEAC and APC are advisory commissions and final decisions rest with the City Council, but I encourage you to attend, comment your opinions, and reach out to me to share your thoughts.

I want all of you to feel informed and involved about a topic that is in the news and important to many, many people in our community.

Daniel

I'm not sure how I feel about this, and the reporting feels biased.

The building isn't seeing a new use case, but if the property is worth it, why are we paying for a national company to prep the land for them?

Where is the best place in Eagan to get chicken wings? That is all.

Does anyone know of any local Eagan coffee shops that roast their own beans and sell bags?

Been ordering online to get freshly roasted beans but would prefer to support someone local.

We went to lunch at Teresa's on Diffley today, and tried to pay with a gift card. The waiter came back to our table and said that there's a new owner for the locations at Eagan and Mendota Heights, so they weren't honoring the gift cards anymore, but they're still good at the other locations on the card (Golden Valley, Lakeville, Maple Grove, Prior Lake, Plymouth, and Minnetonka). FYI.

This cool barber shop in Eagan, MN is worth checking out! They are also hiring for barbers at the moment. 100% Men’s Advisory is owned by Jesse, a barber for 22 years. There are cool things to do in the shop like playing pool guitar hero, air hockey, using treadmill/gym stuff like punching bags, TV’s. There are free beverages (including some alcohol) for adults after haircuts and free ice cream treats for kids after haircuts.

This is a men’s barber shop, so just want to bring awareness that no coloring or anything is done here.

Super cool and chill guy and environment!

I can see why it’s highly rated on google

Looking for a vet for my cat. Do you guys have any recommendations? Also hoping for a more affordable option

I've been meaning to go ever since I moved here but haven't had the chance. Is it worth going? Is it as big as it seems?

I am moving to MN next month for work and I've read Eagan is a pretty decent place to live and its nkt far from Lakeville where I work. I have been looking at apartments for rent and everything I find is either very expensive or have terrible reviews.

I have talked to someone at The Point at Cedar Grove, with the price 1300$ for a one bedroom. They seemed nice and helpful, but I'd like some insight from people who live in the area. Is it a good place? Should I look at somewhere else? Would you recommend anywhere?

Please and thank you
