Introducing edenprairiemn.gov

Due to a new state law requiring all Minnesota cities to use .gov domains, the City’s website has moved from edenprairie.org to edenprairiemn.gov. Along with this update, employee email addresses have also switched to the new domain. Visits to edenprairie.org will automatically redirect to edenprairiemn.gov, and emails sent to old addresses will continue to reach City employees permanently.

Eden Prairie Liquor Dollar Drive for PROP

Eden Prairie Liquor is hosting its annual Dollar Drive for PROP Food Shelf throughout the month of November. Each time you visit our stores in November, please consider making a $1 donation at the register — and together, we will reach our goal of raising $5,000 for PROP.

Staff News

After nearly four decades with the City of Eden Prairie, Economic Development Manager Dave Lindahl retired last week. Over the years, Dave has been at the center of Eden Prairie’s most important milestones, from supporting business growth and transportation investments, to helping shape complex community projects. Eden Prairie truly wouldn’t be the same without Dave’s dedication, insight and passion for our City. We wish Dave all the best in retirement!
