Fifth Affordable Housing Complex in the Works for Eagan

The Dakota County Community Development Agency wants to construct a 50-unit facility near Lemay Lake in Eagan.

The Dakota County Community Development Agency can't get enough of Eagan. Last summer, the agency broke ground on a 47-unit affordable housing complex along Northwood Parkway in Eagan. Then, in December, it unveiled plans for a similar, 27-unit facility along Hwy. 13, which received Eagan City Council approval in March. On Tuesday, agency officials were once again before the Eagan Advisory Planning Commission—this time with plans for a 50-unit townhome complex at 1319 Jurdy Road—just southeast of Moonshine Park and adjacent to Lemay Lake. The commission unanimously recommended approval of a preliminary site plan and rezoning request. The project will likely hit the Eagan City Council on May 7 for a vote. If approved, the facility would be …

I agree, provided the current landowners are not being "asked" to sell, and that they are willing to sell to the developers. I would also expect that placement at the home is open first to Eagan applicants, who either lived in Eagan for some period prior to admittance, or whose child or child-in-law have lived in Eagan 10+ years. We want to help seniors be comfortable, and we want them to visited…   more ›

CSM Withdraws Lockheed Martin Plans, City Steps in with Site Study

City officials hope the $15,000 study will help them hone their focus for the 47-acre Lockheed Martin site.
