Social District Launch
Summary
Downtown Shakopee is now Minnesota’s second social district, so you can buy a drink at a participating bar and walk around with it downtown. If you like bar-hopping, that means fewer boundaries and more time outside between stops.

Impact analysis
Bars and nearby businesses could see more sales as people stay downtown longer, though the city may face added costs for signage, enforcement, and cleanup.
Bar-goers and downtown bars and restaurants get the most obvious win, with nearby shops possibly catching extra foot traffic.
People who want quiet downtown streets or are sensitive to public drinking may be annoyed, and residents could see more noise or litter.
