Five-Year Capital Funds and Levy Impacts

Emergency rental assistance funding

Operation Metro Surge has created economic strains at the city, county, and state levels, and some Eagan families are struggling with housing costs. The Council backed using $100,000 in state housing aid for emergency rental assistance through a local partner agency, with room to add more if needed.
