  • Maple Plain is seeking volunteers to assist with tree planting as a part of the Preparing for EAB Grant. This volunteer project will involve planting 18 trees to replenish those that were lost due to emerald ash borer infestations. We are hoping to schedule this project for May of 2023, pending weather.

  • The City of Maple Plain would like to thank everyone for their continued patience and understanding regarding snow plowing services. We believe that improvements have been made and will continue to be made as the season progresses. Mayor Julie Maas-Kusske recently discussed our snow plowing services with journalist Jana Shortal on Kare 11's Breaking the News segment, which can be viewed here.
  • The City of Maple Plain would like to thank every resident that has been helping keep fire hydrants and storm drains clear during the most recent snowfalls. Your work is noticed and appreciated. The Maple Plain Fire Department recently spent an evening clearing hydrants after the early January storm. Keeping those hydrants clear in the future could save your home in the event of a fire! Thank you for keeping our City safer and our storm drains clear!
  • Maple Plain winter parking restrictions are now in place. Parking is not allowed on any street November 1st - April 15 from 1 AM - 7 AM (this policy is in effect even when there is no snow). After 3 inches or more of snowfall, parking is not allowed on any City street until that street has been flowed full width. We appreciate your cooperation!
  • There is only a little over a month of Winter left, which means the Spring and Summer weather will be here before you know it! If you have any big plans, family reunions, birthday parties, or other events that you would like to host in a outdoor community space, you can do so by reserving one of our community park shelters at Rainbow Park or Veterans Memorial Park! More information on reserving a park shelter can be found on the dedicated page, here.
