As Scott County continues to lead the state in population growth, progress and change are evident throughout this community. From forging a new commuter express transit service to downtown Minneapolis (www.bluexpressbus.com) with its partners in Shakopee and Prior Lake to embarking on a parks and open space plan and more, Scott County is investing and preparing for the future.

Residents can learn more about Scott County's programs, policies and events by visiting the County's Web site (www.co.scott.mn.us), tuning in to your local government access channel for meeting coverage and other programming, and reading the resident newsletter (Scott County SCENE). Residents are invited to become more directly involved by volunteering to serve on a citizen advisory committee or by attending County Board meetings, which are held on most Tuesdays beginning at 9 a.m. (visit the Web site for schedule information).
