Welcome

Welcome to the 2010 Cottage Grove Guidebook, the Cottage Grove Sentinel’s annual community resource directory. Inside this handy guide, you will find basic information about the community of Cottage Grove. Whether you’ve lived here all your life or are a visitor passing through, you’ll discover much useful information.

This book is an excellent primer on all that the city has to offer.

We recommend that you keep this guide with your telephone book for easy access. You never know when you might need it.

Additional copies are available, free of charge. Just stop by the Sentinel office at 116 N. Sixth St. in downtown Cottage Grove or call 942-3325.

When the first settlers arrived in the Cottage Grove area in 1848, they encountered the Kalapuya Indians, who lived in the southern Willamette Valley and northern Douglas County. Their villages dotted the banks of the Coast Fork of the Willamette River, Row River and Silk Creek. Their numbers quickly diminished as some left the area to avoid settlers. Others were taken to reservations, and many died after catching diseases introduced into their society by white pioneers. Sam Fern, the last known full-blooded Kalapuya Indian who lived in Cottage Grove, died Sept. 4, 1919.

Many early settlers traveled to Cottage Grove on the Applegate Trail, which left the Oregon Trail in Idaho, crossed Nevada and came into southern Oregon over the Cascade Mountains. Other settlers followed the northern route down the Columbia River to Oregon City and then traveled south through the Willamette Valley to Lane County.

The Land Donation Claim Act of 1850 encouraged more Americans to seek a life in the Oregon Territory. Eligible single men received 320 acres, and married men received twice that amount.

Among the first settlers was Richard Robinson, who staked a claim three miles north of Cottage Grove in 1847. James Chapin followed in 1848. He came to the valley from the west, crossing the Coast Range after his ship floundered off the Oregon Coast. He settled south of Cottage Grove and his house built in 1865 stands derelict today on Dugan Lane.

A cottage owned by Greenbery C. Pearce was home to the first post office in 1855. It was located in an oak grove near Creswell — hence the name Cottage Grove. The post office gradually moved to Cottage Grove, stopping for a time in Saginaw and then to the west bank of the Coast Fork to the settlement of Slabtown, so named because rough planks were placed on the often muddy River Road.

After the railroad arrived in 1872, a feud broke out between west siders and those east of the river in the town of Lemati over which side of the river the post office would occupy. Over time, homes and businesses filled in between the two settlements and they became known as Cottage Grove.

Transportation was a challenge in the small town. Horseback and wagons gave way to the railroad until the Pacific Highway was constructed at the site of present-day River Road. Later, Highway 99 became the main north-south route on the Pacific Coast. In 1957, Interstate 5 opened on the east side of the city.

Agriculture and timber have been among the town’s major industries from its earliest days. One of the first sawmills was built in Saginaw by J.J. Jones. The mill featured a flume that was six miles long and 110 feet high to float logs across Delight Valley to the mill. After World War II, mills in the area expanded as a building boom drove the nation’s economy.

Mining was also a means for early residents to fill their purses. As early as 1863 gold was discovered in the Bohemia Mountains (so named for one of its early miners, James “Bohemia” Johnson).

Bohemia City was founded in 1866 and mining began in earnest in the 1890s, bringing an influx of businesses into Cottage Grove. Tunnels were dug into the mountains and the ore was hauled down the mountain and shipped to smelters for refining. Mining activities declined in the 1920s, although several claims remain active today in the Bohemia Mining District in mountains southeast of Cottage Grove.

Flooding was a common problem in Cottage Grove until the 1940s, when the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers constructed Cottage Grove Reservoir on the Coast Fork and Dorena Reservoir on Row River.

Today much of the area’s history is displayed at the Cottage Grove Museum, located at H Street and Birch Avenue in an octagonal building that once was home to the Catholic Church. The Cottage Grove Historical Library, located at 737 Main St., also contains much information pertaining to businesses, buildings, churches and schools that pertains to the development of the area. Residents and business people have worked to preserve the flavor of the community by preserving many historic buildings and adding murals, creating a bridge between yesterday and today.

Incorporated in 1887, the City of Cottage Grove uses the Council/Manager form of government. The City is governed by a seven-member volunteer City Council, including the Mayor, that set local policy with a City Manager that manages the daily operations of the City. Four City Councilors represent wards of the City with the Mayor and two City Councilors representing the entire community. The City depends on other community volunteers for many committees and projects.

Citizens can contact any member of the Council directly to discuss City matters. Citizens can also contact the City through the City Manager’s office or one of the City’s departments. The City Council also provides an opportunity for citizens to comment to the entire City Council during City Council meetings.

The City Council meets on the second and fourth Mondays of each month at 7:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers in City Hall located at 400 E. Main Street. For more information about upcoming City Council meetings contact the City Manager’s office at 942-5501.

The City of Cottage Grove also sponsors a Youth Advisory Council (YAC) that involves youth from the community in their local government. One of the members of the YAC is selected

each year to serve as the youth representative to the City Council.

Cottage Grove is a full-service city, providing such services as police, 911, municipal court, street maintenance, water and wastewater treatment, planning and development, building inspections, library, a community center and, new this year, wireless internet service. Nearly all services of the City take place at City Hall with the exception of the Library and Community Center, which is located at 700 E. Gibbs Avenue. The Community Center provides space for the Cottage Grove Area Chamber of Commerce and Senior Center and for other community activities. Contact the Community Coordinator at 942-1185 for information on using space in the center.

Additional information about City services, volunteer opportunities and upcoming activities can be found on the City of Cottage Grove’s website at www.cottagegrove.org. The website contains a wealth of information about City events and services. The agendas for City Council and Planning Commission meetings are posted on the site.

Incorporated in 1887, the City of Cottage Grove uses the Council/Manager form of government. The City is governed by a seven-member volunteer City Council, including the Mayor, that set local policy with a City Manager that manages the daily operations of the City. Four City Councilors represent wards of the City with the Mayor and two City Councilors representing the entire community. The City depends on other community volunteers for many committees and projects.

Citizens can contact any member of the Council directly to discuss City matters. Citizens can also contact the City through the City Manager’s office or one of the City’s departments. The City Council also provides an opportunity for citizens to comment to the entire City Council during City Council meetings.

The City Council meets on the second and fourth Mondays of each month at 7:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers in City Hall located at 400 E. Main Street. For more information about upcoming City Council meetings contact the City Manager’s office at 942-5501.

The City of Cottage Grove also sponsors a Youth Advisory Council (YAC) that involves youth from the community in their local government. One of the members of the YAC is selected

each year to serve as the youth representative to the City Council.

Cottage Grove is a full-service city, providing such services as police, 911, municipal court, street maintenance, water and wastewater treatment, planning and development, building inspections, library, a community center and, new this year, wireless internet service. Nearly all services of the City take place at City Hall with the exception of the Library and Community Center, which is located at 700 E. Gibbs Avenue. The Community Center provides space for the Cottage Grove Area Chamber of Commerce and Senior Center and for other community activities. Contact the Community Coordinator at 942-1185 for information on using space in the center.

Additional information about City services, volunteer opportunities and upcoming activities can be found on the City of Cottage Grove’s website at www.cottagegrove.org. The website contains a wealth of information about City events and services. The agendas for City Council and Planning Commission meetings are posted on the site. Additionally every Friday the City posts the “Friday Update” a brief summary of current city projects and activities. The site also contains contact information for City officials, volunteer opportunities, job announcements, City forms and the City Code.

Economy Housing Outlook

Cottage Grove has spent most of its history as the quintessential “timber town.” However, wood products industries declined sharply during the 1980s. Since 1981, nearly 70 percent of all timber-related jobs have disappeared.

Today, timber is still an important part of the town’s economy, but it is no longer the dominant source of employment and income for Cottage Grove. The town has successfully diversified its employment base.

Currently, Cottage Grove’s new industrial park on Highway 99S is the city’s trump card in an effort to attract more family-wage jobs. Development in the industrial park has progressed at such a rate that only one lot currently remains unoccupied.

Cottage Grove is home to close to 600 retail, service and manufacturing businesses. South Lane School District is the area’s biggest employer; other major employers are Safeway, WalMart, Cottage Grove Community Hospital and Weyerhaeuser Co.

Still other important employers include Starfire Lumber Co., Wright Machine Tool, Pacific Yurts, Territorial Seed Co., Kimwood Corp, and Side Pocket Distillery and Beverage.

Principal industries in the Cottage Grove area are agriculture, education, wood products and health care. The city, dubbed the “Covered Bridge Capital of Oregon,” is also expanding its efforts toward making tourism an economical focus. The areas surrounding Cottage Grove also boast several high-class wineries including Saginaw, Iris, Chateau-Lorane, and King Estate vineyards.

Cottage Grove’s retail market area extends north to Creswell; east to Culp Creek and Disston; west to Lorane; and south to Yoncalla/Drain. Including Cottage Grove’s 9,445 residents, this market area includes approximately 30,000 people.

Members of these households come to the city’s three major shopping centers — the Gateway Plaza which includes Bi-Mart and Sears, Wal-Mart on Row River Road, the Safeway Shopping Center and Village Shopping Center — as well as numerous specialty shops and restaurants in historic downtown Cottage Grove.

Cottage Grove also serves as a bedroom community for the Eugene-Springfield area — letting people who have jobs in the “big city” enjoy a friendly, small-town environment for their families to “have their cake and eat it, too.”

Cottage Grove’s housing market continues its recovery from the recent economic landscape. Realtors explain that the town still needs to sell its foreclosure inventory, but that signs of recovery are evident in both the commercial and residential real estate landscapes.

While many people worry about housing prices and thier equi-ties, the longer range view might be in order. Housing prices peaked in 2007, and have fallen since then, but a look at the overall growth in value from January 2000 to January 2009 is in order. The average growth for that period in Lane County was 54 percent, which is a 6 percent average growth per year. We had a bubble in 2007, and a correction in 2008. Now, home prices in Cottage Grove are stabilizing at about the 2005 value.

New development is continuing in Cottage Grove, and the town remains a desirable community in which to live. This coupled with low interest rates and the new stimulus pack-age helping people to return to the work force should make an ideal situation for the Cottage Grove housing market. The rebound of California’s housing market will only help matters.

Economy

Cottage Grove has spent most of its history as the quintessential “timber town.” However, wood products industries declined sharply during the 1980s. Since 1981, nearly 70 percent of all timber-related jobs have disappeared.

Today, timber is still an important part of the town’s economy, but it is no longer the dominant source of employment and income for Cottage Grove. The town has successfully diversified its employment base.

Currently, Cottage Grove’s new industrial park on Highway 99S is the city’s trump card in an effort to attract more family-wage jobs. Development in the industrial park has progressed at such a rate that only one lot currently remains unoccupied.

Cottage Grove is home to close to 600 retail, service and manufacturing businesses. South Lane School District is the area’s biggest employer; other major employers are Safeway, WalMart, Cottage Grove Community Hospital and Weyerhaeuser Co.

Still other important employers include Starfire Lumber Co., Wright Machine Tool, Pacific Yurts, Territorial Seed Co., Kimwood Corp, and Side Pocket Distillery and Beverage.

Principal industries in the Cottage Grove area are agriculture, education, wood products and health care. The city, dubbed the “Covered Bridge Capital of Oregon,” is also expanding its efforts toward making tourism an economical focus. The areas surrounding Cottage Grove also boast several high-class wineries including Saginaw, Iris, Chateau-Lorane, and King Estate vineyards.

Cottage Grove’s retail market area extends north to Creswell; east to Culp Creek and Disston; west to Lorane; and south to Yoncalla/Drain. Including Cottage Grove’s 9,445 residents, this market area includes approximately 30,000 people.

Members of these households come to the city’s three major shopping centers — the Gateway Plaza which includes Bi-Mart and Sears, Wal-Mart on Row River Road, the Safeway Shopping Center and Village Shopping Center — as well as numerous specialty shops and restaurants in historic downtown Cottage Grove.

Cottage Grove also serves as a bedroom community for the Eugene-Springfield area — letting people who have jobs in the “big city” enjoy a friendly, small-town environment for their families to “have their cake and eat it, too.”

Cottage Grove’s housing market continues its recovery from the recent economic landscape. Realtors explain that the town still needs to sell its foreclosure inventory, but that signs of recovery are evident in both the commercial and residential real estate landscapes.

While many people worry about housing prices and thier equi-ties, the longer range view might be in order. Housing prices peaked in 2007, and have fallen since then, but a look at the overall growth in value from January 2000 to January 2009 is in order. The average growth for that period in Lane County was 54 percent, which is a 6 percent average growth per year. We had a bubble in 2007, and a correction in 2008. Now, home prices in Cottage Grove are stabilizing at about the 2005 value.

New development is continuing in Cottage Grove, and the town remains a desirable community in which to live. This coupled with low interest rates and the new stimulus pack-age helping people to return to the work force should make an ideal situation for the Cottage Grove housing market. The rebound of California’s housing market will only help matters.

Education Resources

South Lane School District serves approximately 2700 students across 12 schools, including affiliated charter schools. South Lane School District is the largest employer in the community with over 350 employees. Elementary schools range in size from 100 stu-dents to nearly 500 students. Two school configurations include preschool through eighth grade. Lincoln Middle School serves nearly 590 students and Cottage Grove High School serves nearly 800 students. The district also operates an alternative high school ranging in size from 60 to 100 students. Cottage Grove High School athletic teams compete at the 4A classification with much success, and the teams are members of the Sky-Em League, along with Junction City, Elmira, LaPine, Sisters, Marist and Pleasant Hill.

The school district is governed by an elected board of seven indi-viduals. The board and district administration place a high priority

on the classroom and instruction. District class size averages are in the low 20’s at the primary level and upper 20’s for the second-ary level. Students in the South Lane School District typically exceed the state average for the number of students who meet and exceed state standards on statewide assessment tests.

Cottage Grove High School

Cottage Grove High School is in its seventh year at its new site and as a result of the new facilities, many academic and extra-curricular offerings have been added.

Located at 1375 South River Road, the expansive campus is much like that of a college or university. A broad array of core curriculum and professional technical sources is available and students can earn up to 70 hours of college credit before leaving high school.

Advanced placement experiences are available in calculus, chemistry, statistics, biology, and psychology. Through AP exams, students have an opportunity to earn credit or advanced placement status at most of the nation’s colleges and universities, as well as colleges and universities in 28 other countries. Cottage Grove High School also offers college credit in physics, literature, and Spanish at Lane Community College. L.C.C. is located next door to the new school, providing an extended learning opportunity in close proximity.

Professional-technical opportunities are a showcase at the new facility. Courses in tourism, health occupations, early childhood, drafting, construction, information technology and industrial engineering are provided in state-of-the-art classrooms. These courses also have college credit options through agreements with

several Oregon community colleges.

Developing a “Culture of Achievement” has been a main focus since the high school opened in 2003. The goal is to create a culture in which achievement is the norm and all students, staff, and families work toward that end. A team of approximately 30 members, including staff, students, parents, and administration meet monthly and work on ideas for promoting achievement.

Positive results have been a by-product of these efforts to increase achievement. Students are being asked to do more and the failure rate has gone down. Each term at least 50 percent of the student body consistently earns a 3.00 GPA or higher.

Both CGHS and Lincoln Middle School have been awarded 21st Century Community Learning Center grants to provide both summer and after-school opportunities for their students. The five-year grant began with summer school in 2006 and numerous incentives and enrichment classes are also provided throughout the school year.

In September 1997, Lane Community College’s new branch campus building in Cottage Grove opened for classes, bringing a whole new dimension of community college offerings to Cottage Grove.

Today’s challenging economy finds more students than ever at the branch, and the school has responded by adding more courses than ever to its list of offerings. The facility has three computer labs, seven classrooms, a student resource room, a telecourse room and a bookstore. LCC’s Cottage Grove Branch offers more than 100 courses each term, both for college credit and for com-munity education.

A broad selection of vocational and lower-division college courses are offered in subjects like social science, data processing, man-agement, early childhood education, math, history, language arts and sciences — based on student demand for them. Telecourses that meet Oregon transfer degree requirements are also available.

A wide assortment of continuing-education and enrichment classes are also offered, including arts and crafts, computer classes, health and first aid, home and garden, human develop-ment, music and dance and one-day trips and adventures.The campus offers Adult Basic Education, GED (High School Equivalency) and English as a Second Language programs.The Cottage Grove branch campus also feeds into LCC’s main campus, located in Eugene, where students have access to a broad variety of programs.

In September 1997, Lane Community College’s new branch campus building in Cottage Grove opened for classes, bringing a whole new dimension of community college offerings to Cottage Grove.

Today’s challenging economy finds more students than ever at the branch, and the school has responded by adding more courses than ever to its list of offerings. The facility has three computer labs, seven classrooms, a student resource room, a telecourse room and a bookstore. LCC’s Cottage Grove Branch offers more than 100 courses each term, both for college credit and for com-munity education.

A broad selection of vocational and lower-division college courses are offered in subjects like social science, data processing, man-agement, early childhood education, math, history, language arts and sciences — based on student demand for them. Telecourses that meet Oregon transfer degree requirements are also available.

A wide assortment of continuing-education and enrichment classes are also offered, including arts and crafts, computer classes, health and first aid, home and garden, human develop-ment, music and dance and one-day trips and adventures.The campus offers Adult Basic Education, GED (High School Equivalency) and English as a Second Language programs.The Cottage Grove branch campus also feeds into LCC’s main campus, located in Eugene, where students have access to a broad variety of programs.

Transportation

Flat, pleasantly laid-back and endowed with an extensive network of bicycle lanes and paths, Cottage Grove may be a bicycle buff’s dream. Additionally, there isn’t enough traffic in town to create rush-hour traffic jams, so driving in Cottage Grove is a relatively low-stress proposition. South Lane Wheels provides general and specialized transporta-tion throughout the area with the Route•Around•Town, Door to Door local and regional, and Metro Medical servic-es to Eugene and Springfield. For other trips to Eugene, the LTD city bus (which covers an extensive network of stops throughout the Eugene-Springfield area) is just the ticket. It takes about an hour on LTD to get from Cottage Grove to a destination in Eugene or Springfield.

Things to do

Visitors to the historic town of Cottage Grove will find it and the surrounding area to be literally a gold mine of activity and exploration for all ages. There are nuggets to be found in both the town and country for those willing to search them out.

Adults and children alike will want to explore our historic downtown with its beautiful city parks, colorful murals, museum and the Gibbs Center Art Gallery, which is open year-round.

Recreation opportunities abound for those who are inclined to get out and explore the countryside, including a covered bridge tour and the Bohemia mining district. There are two U.S. Army Corps of Engineer reservoirs located outside of town that draw locals and visitors from around the state to their shores.

Serene Cottage Grove Lake is a short five-mile drive south of town going out Sixth Street to London and Reservoir roads. The lake is three miles long and covers 1,158 acres when it’s full. Tent and RV camping are available at Pine Meadows Campground, in addition to a nearby primitive campground. Swimming, fishing and picnicking are also available at Shortridge and Wilson Creek Parks.

Dorena Lake is six miles east of Cottage Grove by way of Row River Road. This large lake covers 1,900 acres when full and

features camping, a large boat ramp and picnic area at nearby Baker Bay Park. Schwarz Park is nearby and also offers camping.

Umpqua National Forest boasts a wide selection of hiking trails, campgrounds, picnicking spots, waterfalls and places to commune with nature. The forest covers 984,602 acres of mountain woodlands and is about 15 miles east of town, beyond Dorena Lake.

The Row River Trail is a popular Rails-to-Trails project that begins in Cottage Grove and winds 17 miles along the Row River, passing Dorena Lake along the way. It is a safe, scenic path that is paved for walking, biking or horseback riding. The gentle hills are possible for most stages of fitness, and the gorgeous scenery makes the effort worthwhile.

Culture comes in many forms and includes performances at the Cottage Theatre’s beautiful state-of-the-art, $1 million facility that attracts and features local actors in a variety of plays. Other annual events include the rodeo and Bohemia Mining Days celebration in July, the Cottage Grove Family Fair and Timber Carnival in August, Gathering of Gardeners in September, Downtown Chili Cook-off in October and the December lighting of the Main Street Christmas tree.
