RE: Hope Glen Farm Corn Crib — Certificate of Appropriateness
Proposal/Background
Michael and Paula Bushilla have requested that the City of Cottage Grove approve a Certificate of
Appropriateness to allow for the construction of an enclosed lean-to addition to the former corn crib
building that has been converted into restrooms at their historic event venue.
The purpose of the addition is to create an area in which event caterers can stage and prepare for
the meals occurring on the site. The current arrangement at the historic venue does not meet the
needs of the contracted caterers. A portion of the addition will be devoted to the storage of tables
and heaters utilized during events scheduled at the property.
The Bushilla's currently have a Historic Places Conditional Use Permit (HPCUP) that was
amended in 2012 to allow for weddings to be held on the property. Resolution No. 2012-121
approving the HPCUP is attached.

Access/Grading
The applicant is propossoing an additional site modification with the proposed addition. That
change would be to re-open and improve an existing access road that leads to the barn terrace
from the main homestead driveway. The road bed is currently in existence but has had minimal
use over the years. The purpoose of the road would allow for catering traffic to be seperated
from the main venue area as they access the new staging area in the proposed addition. The
yellow area in the detail below depicts the location of this access road. Modifications of the site
in this area will require a grading permit and erosion control measures. The septic drainfield for
the barn is located in this area and must not be compromised. A sidewalk is also proposed from
the new addition to the barn patio. All sidewalk and parking improvements shall meet ADA
requirements.The required concrete apron on the main driveway serving the barn shall be
constructed to City specifications prior to the corn crib addition being constructed. A right-of-way
permit is required for this activity.
