Jordan Jordan: Preserving the past, preparing for the future In 1854, a man settled on a piece of land and built a log house in what was then called Sand Creek, but shortly thereafter became “Jordan.” Jordan’s first structures were crude log cabins. These later gave way to modest, but sturdier structures. Often they were made of brick from a local quarry. Today, Jordan’s downtown area has become an antique shoppers’ paradise, with dealers selling their wares from a variety of buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Stay at the historic Nicolin Inn and Mansion and enjoy all Jordan has to offer. Adding to the nostalgia are the Jordan Brewery and the Feedmill Restaurant. An old-time feed mill in former years, the Feedmill Restaurant still boasts the original wood floors and an awesome view of Sand Creek, which winds its way along the rear of the restaurant and downtown area. Across the street is the famous Pekarna’s Meat Market. Jordan residents are proud of beautiful Lagoon Park. Complete with a year-round running waterfall, the park is located on the edge of the spring-fed Mill Pond. In recent years the city has made many improvements to the park, including wrought iron railings, paved walking and bicycle paths, fishing rocks and pier, a fountain and a beach. The beauty, safety and peaceful atmosphere of this area have made it a favorite recreational spot for Jordan residents. As growth occurs, the people and the Jordan City Council strive to keep the community’s small-town flavor. Jordan honors its history during the annual Heimatfest. These unique celebrations help connect the old and new in Jordan — it’s a great place to visit and an even better place to call home.

Scott County

Ordinances

A total watering ban will be in effect every day from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and the restrictions are odd/even. Violators will be cited. There is an exemption for newly seeded or sodded lawns.

s Scott County continues to lead the state in population growth, progress is evident throughout the community. Over the last several years, Scott County has managed to keep its budget in check while still investing in its residents’ future: from the acquisition of new parks and green spaces to developing highly successful transit partnerships (the BlueXpress commuter line and the SmartLink transit cooperative), from the construction of two new mixed-use library facilities to installing a high-tech fiber optic ring, Scott County is truly committed to its new vision: “Where individuals, families, and businesses thrive.” Residents are encouraged to keep current on County news through viewing Board meetings (available online in “real time” and on-demand), visiting the website (www. co.scott.mn.us), tuning in to local government access cable for meeting coverage and other programming, following the county on Facebookand reading the award-winning resident newsletter (The Scott County SCENE). In addition, you can become more directly involved by volunteering with various community groups, serving on a citizen advisory committee, or by attending County board meetings and workshops, which are held on most Tuesdays at 9:00 a.m. (please visit the website for up-to-date schedule information).

Snowmobile Operation

Scott County Government Center

It is unlawful for any person to operate a snowmobile upon the roadway, shoulder or inside bank or slope of any street or highway except on the trails designated by the council. Snowmobiles can only be used between the hours of 7 a.m. and 11 p.m. Any operation may only be on the right-hand side of such street or highway and in the same direction as the highway traffic on the nearest land of the roadway adjacent thereto. For complete rules and ordinances regarding snowmobile operation, contact Jordan City Hall at 952-492-2535.

City Licenses & Permits

Board of Commissioners

Winter Parking There shall be no parking on city streets, alleys or parking lots within the city of Jordan when there is an accumulation of one and one-half inches of snow or more, from 2 a.m. until the streets, alleys and parking lots are plowed full width. Exceptions: If you reside on First or Water streets between Mill and Varner streets, an odd/even parking system applies. For residents in these areas, the last digit of the day of the month determines which side of the street you should park on. The ordinance does not take effect until 2 a.m., so if you park your vehicle for the night, make sure you park it on the side of the street it should be on after midnight. Call the Jordan Police Department at 952-492-2009 with questions.

Credit Unions are dedicated to the principle of “People Helping People” and have a not-for proﬁt tax status similar to churches, charities and other groups that work to better the lives of those involved.

Why Bank with us... You become member-owner of South Metro Federal Credit Union. We provide you with ﬁnancial products, services and education which enables you to achieve your personal and ﬁnancial goals and improve your quality of life.
