Cottage Grove Development Standards for New and Existing Buildings

This standard applies to all new structures, buildings, and development, and major remodels in the City’s Commercial Districts. The allowable building coverage increases by a ratio of one-half square foot for every one square foot of required parking area that is paved using a city-approved porous/permeable paving material (i.e., allowing stormwater infiltration) or one-half square foot for every one square foot of city-approved water quality treatment area (e.g., vegetative swale or biofiltration) on the development site.
