City Approves Expansion, Noise Mitigation At Downtown Events Venue

    Umatilla's Palm Mansion event venue is expanding.  Owner Alayna Burton Mines received approval from the Umatilla City Council on Tuesday, June 17, to place a 40 x 60-foot glass structure on the property for use as an indoor reception facility.
    The building will be located along the southern side of the Trowell Avenue property and will allow for the venue to host more indoor activities.  While the property's main feature is a large, antebellum-style home, most of its activities are hosted outdoors currently.
    In addition, Mines said she is set to improve border sound buffering in the form of fencing and additional plants.  City staff has reported receiving two noise complaints from activities at the property, and the upgrades at the facility are expected to help mitigate the issues.
