Reasons for Exemption
The project consists of demolition of an existing garage building and kitchen portion of existing Cottage #6, which involves negligible or no expansion of the existing building use. While the structures are nearby the Metropolitan State Hospital Historic District, they are not contributer resources to the district. The project will not have a significant effect on resources in the area. The State confirms that no exceptions apply which would preclude the use of an exemption for this project.
