Update from A1
in the minds of the commu-
nity and the minds of the
city as it moves forward
in its development,” said
Holli Turpin, a member of
the Cottage Grove Histor-
ical Society who worked
on the planning team for
the Historic Preservation
Plan update. “And it helps
bring in input from outside
organizations so the city
has a deeper understand-
ing of what the community
wants.”
The updated plan credits
various heritage partners
with making strides since
2014. The Genealogical
Society, for instance, re-

Vealey House to the Cot-
tage Grove Community
Center, where the group’s
collection is climate con-

Respondents also said
that when they host out-

commonly show off attrac-
tions such as the Down-
town Historic District,
covered bridges, local
museums, local theaters or
heritage events like Bohe-
mia Mining Days.
In considering the city’s
progress and public opin-
ion, the planning team also
updated their goals for the
coming years.
“Primarily what we
were looking at was revis-
ing our goals and strate-
gies because we had been
so successful in meeting
the goals and strategies
which we originally es-
tablished in 2014 that it
seemed appropriate to all
involved that we update
them,” said City Planner
Amanda Ferguson in a
Sept. 9 City Council meet-
ing.
In updating the plan’s
goals, the city means to
promote inter-organiza-
tional collaboration of her-
itage partners, improve its
historical review process,
develop a local invento-
ry of historic resources,
preserve said resources,
promote tourism and pro-
vide economic incentives
for building restoration.
A host of strategies are
scheduled to be employed
over the next several years
to accomplish these goals.
