Cottage Grove Village is a proposed 289-acre eco-friendly master planned community in Sonoma County, California that will include 800 homes, retail shops, restaurants, hotels, and business space. The development aims to be self-sustaining with renewable energy sources and a walkable design requiring little vehicle use. Initial plans include Spanish, shopping and dining, assisted living, and hotel buildings, with future phases adding Italianate apartments, condos, artist studios, and single family homes. The goal is a sustainable, mixed-use community providing living, work, and leisure amenities.

5. The First Ever Self-Cleaning Eco-Village
At Cottage Grove Village, homes and buildings will not only have photovoltaic solar power, as well as geothermal HVAC
and passive solar technologies, the entire community will be a prototype for a mixed use master planned community unlike
any that has yet to be developed. An eco-village that contributes to its natural environment rather than infringing on it.
Cottage Grove Village’s green tech infrastructure is a combination of technologies that includes a community
integrated grey water filtering system of ponds, creeks, rivers and fountains. The building’s exterior is a revolutionary roof
and siding that has environmental cleaning properties called Reynobond with EcoClean: a new construction material from
Alcoa. The company says its “The nontoxic surface substance produces a reaction between oxygen and humidity when
exposed to natural or artificial ultraviolet light. The combination makes any surface to which the substance is applied a
water-loving surface that repels dirt and oils. In sunlight, the panels effectively zap organic pollutants that would otherwise
accumulate on the surface; once rendered harmless, is easily washed away with just water. “ The runoff would then be
absorbed into the ground and back into the grey water filtering system.

6. A Self-contained Economy based on
Shopping, Dining and Hospitality
As part of the village, there will be all the business amenities a complete community could need,
such as: quality brand shopping and dining, a four star hotel, spa and restaurant, a live/work artist
community with galleries, a neighborhood shopping complex of four anchor stores (including: an
organic gourmet grocery store, general hardware store, pharmacy and community fitness center);
and a state-of-the-art assisted living complex with general medical facilities: All amenities that
contribute to the economy of a small working village as well as the tax structure of the surrounding
region. We expect to produce over 400 onsite jobs.

circular village to allow for permeable pedestrian walkways throughout reforested park like surroundings and a
large open green space at the center of the community. Two large ponds will be at opposite ends of the village
and connected through a series of creeks and canals that act as a natural water filtering system. Surrounding
the village will be a natural greenbelt of organic agriculture which will be leased to local growers for wine
grapes, organic produce, lavender and other favorite local herbs and flowers.
