COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL City conducts mobility hub survey The City of Cottage Grove is looking to design a mobility hub that meets the transit needs of its community. As part of our research, the city is reach- ing out for feedback about mobility hub needs.

The city will then ana- lyze Row River Trailhead Park and identify its cur- rent, proposed, and long range uses and how the mobility hub could work within these plans. Lastly, it will examine how these two overlap and decide how to properly build this for the commu- nity. ber of Commerce office. “I love being here, it’s just a lot nicer,” said SVA Of- fice Administrator Smiley Glenn. “There’s a lot more people coming in now that we’re open, and so a lot more interactions with people. And it’s a great lo- cation for us, because we’re more centrally located.” The Cottage Grove Ge- nealogical Society Library is also enjoying a new space. As part of remod- eling, the old therapy pool area was converted into an office to house its library of historical documents. “I think that Cottage Grove is very blessed that our city cares so much about preserving our local The public is asked to participate in a survey to gain the community’s in- put on what kind of ad- ditional transportation modes the public would like to have access to in the community.

As well as these offices, the Shepherd Room and limited other spaces in the Community Center are available for community use.
