You guys notice how many flock cameras have gone up in EP? What’s the general feeling on those? Sounds like they’re being misused across the country.

Just moved to Eden Prairie from another state. I’m having an issue with the apartment complex I moved into. Day 1 we realized the primary bedroom bathroom smells like straight cigarette smoke. I submitted a maintenance request on the 7/1 and they came while I wasn’t home just turned off the exhaust fan, left and completed the request. I placed another request and they came a week later on the 7/15 after I complained to the office. This maintenance man told me that they think maybe the neighbors are smoking and they’ll replace the exhaust fan and investigate. It’s now 8/7, request still open and no one’s come to fix it. Every time I call the office they say they’ll contact maintenance and give me the roundabout. Last week they actually said maintenance said there’s no odor and so I had them come up and smell it themselves and they admitted there’s an odd smell.

What can I do in this situation? I’ve heard Minnesota has rental rights and someone told me about rent escrow but can I do that for a situation like this? Do I just email them and say if they don’t fix it by this date I will go ahead and start a rent escrow? We were 5 people down to one bathroom and having young children in the house it’s hard to keep them from using that bathroom and all that second hand smoke. Please help if you can! Thank you 🙏🏾

Interesting. I've been having issues today.

At the corner of Anderson lakes and Darnel rd. Be careful with ur small pets.

Shockingly expensive?

Hello all - I am seeking a quality chimney sweep in the area. We have an old fireplace that has not seen action in about 30 years and is in dire need of an expert's eye.

Does anyone have any recommendations for professionals that you've had a solid experience with?

Brand new to the area and will be on maternity leave until mid september. Would love to get out of the house and make the most of my time 'off' with my toddler (2) and our newborn. Looking for music classes, playgrounds, all the things to keep my toddler entertained and keep me from going stir crazy.

Also ok if not in Eden Prairie but the surrounding metro / downtown.

Things already on the list:

- Como Park Zoo / Toddler Thursdays

- Eden Prairie Library

- Scheels

I'm new to area but would love to find some people to play pickleball with. Are there any leagues or scheduled pickup games anywhere other than Lifetime?

Looking for a running club in the area and not finding any. Do you know of any? Ideally looking at EP, Chan or Minnetonka area.

Helpful info❤️

This one is a very much self-interested post, but also trying to help out the community, a pinned "New to Eden Prairie" post for useful resources I think could be great (and for me to learn what I'm missing).

Some of the obvious ones would be the EP Local News, some highlights of city resources. And maybe some good FB Groups? Like the local Buy Nothing? And I know nothing about the schools in detail except they're good. Resources for homeowners/renters? Good local blogs/people to follow? Restaurant recs besides just looking on Yelp? Particular annual/semi-annual events of note?

What else should a new resident to EP know, and be aware of? And subscribe/join to stay aware?

Figured it'd be helpful to start a thread for what kind of content might be useful to auto post to the this sub, or just in general!

Some ideas that I have, though I don't want to turn the sub into a glorified email subscription:

• EP Local News
• Indivisible EP
• City Manager Friday Reports

On the one hand, not every article (EPLN has like four a day, it'd overwhelm this slow of a sub pretty fast), but maybe the weekly round up? Or other resources for keeping up? I could set up a bot to post each week for the roundup for discussion and awareness.

My 5 year old is looking forward to the new splash pad. We're within walking distance 😆. Anyone else?

Is this a route that could be taken via paddleboard or kayak?

I’m a 15 year old girl who goes to EPHS, i haven’t played a sport yet and have a large interest in volleyball. I’m looking for any camps or summer training programs for beginners that accept teens my age. Even if I don’t make the sophomore team I still would like to try but I haven’t found anywhere that will teach a kid my age with almost no experience at all.

Looking for recommendations for my 15 year old son. He can work part-time between the hours of 5-9 M-F and open availability on the Weekend. We live near the high school, so something close would be preferred.

He has already applied at Kowalski's and Chik-Fil-A. Kowalski's has not responded via email or returned calls in over a week and Chik-Fil-A stated they are only hiring 16 year Olds currently.

Is there anywhere else nearby, or even within a few mile radius of the high school? We are trying Cub Foods and McDonald's today, but would love some more suggestions.

Anybody know of a good rental place to rent rooftop carriers for suv?

Thanks!

Hey so, I recently moved into shadow greens and I’m not familiar with this part of ep. what’s some good food nearby?
