Chaska, Minnesota: Chaska was incorporated as a village in
1871 and a city in 1891. The City retained its small town image
until the 1950s when the transition to a metropolitan community
began. The expansion of the seven county metropolitan area reached
Chaska in the 1960s. With that expansion came the introduction
of the Jonathan New Town design concept in 1966. The Jonathan
"new town" development within Chaska brought new land,
new jobs and new people to the community.
This period of transition and expansion continues today. Dozens
of modern industries have located to Chaska and continues to
do so. Residential construction adds 300 to 400 new homes per
year; commercial business continues to expand offering a variety
of retail and service opportunities to its residents; redevelopment
of commercial areas in the downtown began in the 1980s and still
continues. Although the community has seen much growth, development
regulations and sound planning have ensured Chaska's small sense
of community and the preservation of its rich heritage.
Chaska has beauty. Just 25 miles southwest of Minneapolis,
its small 19th-century downtown quickly yields to open fields,
farmland and the Minnesota River. And it has brains too. More
than a dozen technology and biotech firms are based there. The
town is a magnet for families, who can find reasonably priced
homes, low taxes and quality schools. Chaska lies in school
district 112 and offers many choices for both public and private
primary education.
A new explosion in the population is expected after the construction
of U.S. Highway 312 freeway passing through the heart of Chaska,
serving as a fast, direct, link to the heart of the Twin Cities.
