Board meetings and strategic plans from Village of Cottage Grove
The Village of Cottage Grove's Comprehensive Plan Housing Chapter update outlines strategies to address the community's housing shortage, lack of diversity, and high costs. The plan focuses on six key priorities: diversifying housing stock, increasing the overall supply of various housing types, boosting affordable multi-family units for the local workforce and seniors, supporting affordable single-family home development and preservation, enhancing community awareness about housing issues, and expanding senior housing options. These priorities are guided by core values of affordability, economic growth, an informed and engaged community, and social and economic stability.
The committee reviewed and discussed the 2027 Financial Management Plan. A recommendation was made to the Village Board regarding the plan, which included specific adjustments such as rescheduling the Fire and EMS station renovation to 2029, utilizing draft budget figures, planning for the Community Park Shelter using Park Development fees, and incorporating a space study for the MSB in 2027.
