8A | MARCH 25, 2021 | Eats COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL from A1 began just weeks ago three streatery permits for the study period, limiting installment to one parklet on each block frontage. At the time, coun- cilors, citizens and business owners were largely supportive of the idea, citing the po- tential increase in foot traffic and downtown tourism. Councilors Mike Fleck and Kenneth Roberts were dissenting votes on the pilot pro- gram, raising concerns about the safety of the structures and down- town parking limita- tions while remaining supportive of the pro- gram if more informa- tion were to become available. Following authoriza- tion, two applications for the construction of streateries in front of downtown businesses Jack Sprats and Axe and Fiddle were approved last June. However, fi- nancial barriers caused by COVID-19 restric- tions delayed the proj- ect until recently. Finally, construc- tion of the streateries after Travel Oregon an- nounced that the City of Cottage Grove was awarded a $30,000 in- vestment through Trav- el Oregon’s Destination Ready program, which is going directly toward the streatery develop- ment project. The Cottage Grove City Council approved the Bartolotti’s Pizza streatery application unanimously during its meeting this Monday (March 22). While the streateries in front of Jack Sprats and Bartolotti’s Pizza will be placed on Main Street, the Axe and Fiddle requested from the city council that its streatery be moved around the corner to Seventh Street. Councilors weighed the arguments for and against the move, con- sidering that although the location may en- hance participation during events by serv- ing as public space and allow the Axe and Fid- dle to serve out its side door, Seventh Street is a smaller road than Main Street and may slightly restrict vehicular traffic space. Councilors also pointed out during an agenda session that the streatery’s originally approved position on Main Street could im- pede left-hand turns from Seventh Street. The request to move the streatery to Seventh Street was approved by councilors Monday night under the condi- tion that visibility issues are addressed on that corner. The streateries are eight- by 20-foot raised structures with railing separating users from traffic.

The streatery at Jack Sprats is expected to be in operation by mid- April, after which the Axe and Fiddle will see installation and finally Bartolotti’s Pizza some- time in May. In November 2021, city staff will evaluate the pilot study based on surveys conducted by the city of Main Street pedestrians and busi- ness owners and sub- mit a final report to city council.
