VISITOR PRESENTATIONS:
Allison Streich, Deputy Director, Carver County CDA, presented highlights from the
Comprehensive Housing Needs Analysis for Carver County with an emphasis on Chanhassen
Data. Allison provided an overview of the study along with final analysis and recommendations
for housing needs in Chanhassen and Carver County. Discussion revolved around types of
housing, costs, availability, accessibility and aging in place services in our community. She
especially noted that Aging in Place initiatives impacts the home sale market, keeping homes
unavailable for resale much longer than in the past. Other discussions revolved around increasing
costs of HOA and other insurance, which impact those with limited income to stay in their
current homes, and information on how to use this study to improve housing options for 65+
residents. Alison will send a copy of the study to Mary to share with the COA at the next
meeting, particularly noting the Chanhassen specific data. Final comments covered data to
consider as Chanhassen plans for housing seniors in the next six years, with the following quote:
“Between 2023 and 2030, senior (age 65 and older) population growth is expected to be
strongest in the Chanhassen submarket, with the addition of 1,972 seniors (54% growth),
followed by Chaska (1,055 senior, 36% growth).” Allison’s power point presentation as well as
the study will be posted with the COA minutes on the Chanhassen Website, as well as linked to
the Chanhassen Senior Center information page on the City of Chanhassen website.
LeeAnn Eiden, Senior Community Services was unable to attend. Mary shared information
about the upcoming Dementia Friends session on August 27, sponsored by Riley Crossing and
presented by LeeAnn Eiden. Commissioners were encouraged to attend if possible.
Emmanual Ngabire, Carver County Office of Aging, invited Commissioners to attend the
3
County wide Commission on Aging meeting scheduled for Friday, September 6 at the MN
Arboretum. He encouraged commissioners to come ready to discuss visibility of programs for
seniors in and around the County, and to share current work being done for this population group
in their city. Special speakers and small discussion break out groups will be part of the event.
Chanhassen Commissioners volunteered to help as table group discussion leaders and greeters.

Lunde, Mason, and Slivken. Other invited cities include Watertown, Waconia, Chaska,
Hamburg, Victoria and Cologne.
Mary Blazanin provided an overview of the Chanhassen Library’s fall schedule as sent by
Linnea Fonnest, who was unable to attend the meeting today.
COA DISCUSSION ITEMS:
1. 4th of July. Commissioner Lunde suggested starting requests for corporate donations
earlier in the year, preferably January or February, to allow companies the time needed to
secure donations from their main offices. She also asked for better clarification on the
letters going out related to General Park and Recreation donations from local businesses
and how the 4th of July Bingo donations differ. Commissioners agreed to begin planning
for the 4th of July Bingo event in January 2025.
2. Communications Update. Commissioner Camarata reported that Carver County is in the
process of investigating the possibility of creating a county newspaper. Commissioner
Lunde updated a list of initial cities interested in combining efforts on a newspaper. She
stated a group is also working on a voter guide which can be digitally promoted for the
upcoming election year.
3. Bridging with Seniors Update. Commissioner Slivken reported that the high school
seniors who’ve graduated from Book Club said their goodbyes at the last meeting and
want to stay in touch with the older adults in the group. The book club is starting up again
in the fall; Chanhassen Library created flyers and posters to promote it. Commissioner
Slivken will be meeting with student volunteers soon. She stated they are available on
weekends to take part in programs/clubs. They may also be interested in offering Tech
support help for older adults, and the possibility of partnering on a Red Cross Blood
drive. She would also like to create another Butterfly Garden project with them.
