Long Lake welcoming to all families
With shaded, picturesque residential neighborhoods, an ever-growing and improving downtown business district, and the lake for which the city is named for, Long Lake has something to offer everyone from residents to visitors.
Numerous businesses adorn the length of Wayzata Boulevard, the main street through the city, which received a major face lift in 2017. Among the new upgrades to the area is a walking and biking path along the shoreline of Long Lake, which meets up with the popular Luce Line Trail.
The city offers its nearly 1,700 residents and scores of visitors plenty of entertainment throughout the year in the form of family-fun and welcoming festivals. In recent years, the city brought back and revamped the popular Buckhorn Days festival, with plans to continue the family-friendly event every mid-July. During the colder months, Long Lake offers a bit of winter fun at the Winterfest in early February.
More information about the city can be found on its website at www. longlakemn. gov or by calling city hall at 952-473-6961.
The Long Lake City Council meets at 6:30 p. m. at city hall, located at 450 Virginia Ave., on the first and third Tuesday of each month.
Elections for city council seats are held every two years.
