2026 Eagan State of the City
On Thursday, Mar. 19, 2026, Mayor Mike Maguire delivered the annual Eagan State of the City address. Mayor Maguire highlighted the voices of Eagan’s residents, business owners, community partners, and neighbors, whose experiences and contributions shape our city every day.
Together, these diverse perspectives tell Eagan’s story and guide where we’re headed. The event was a celebration of the shared sense of community that makes Eagan a place where we don’t just live, work, and play—but thrive, together.
To make the event accessible to everyone in our community, an American Sign Language (ASL) interpreter was available throughout the program.. Watch it now.
