Notice of Final Administrative Decision-460 N 7th Pl

Case No. 2026-1"   Robert Boese Shop Located at 460 N 7th Pl (Previous Variance LU 469-2025)

SITE LOCATION: The subject site is located at 460 N. 7TH St., also known as tax lot 4100 of Linn County Assessors Map 15S04W10CD.

APPLICANT:  Robert Boese; 460 N 7th St; Harrisburg, OR  97446

OWNER:  Robert Boese; 460 N 7th St; Harrisburg, OR  97446

REQUEST: The applicant requests approval to increase the size of the approved accessory structure from 1200 sq. ft. to 1,440 sq. ft.   The alteration to a 32’ wide by 45’ length shop is a 20% change from what was approved in the previous variance LU 469-2025.  Under Harrisburg Municipal Code (HMC) 19.30, and specifically HMC 19.30.030(1)(a), a change in land use of more than 20% would be considered a major modification.  At 20% size differential, this alteration falls below the thresholds in HMC 19.30.030, and therefore can be considered as a Type II Minor Modification.

DECISION:  The original variance allowed a 1,200 sq. ft. accessory structure to be built at 460 N. 7th St.  This Minor Modification of 20% or less has been Administratively Approved, and allows a 1,440 sq. ft. structure to be built.  Conditions from the variance are still applicable, and another condition was added in the final minor modification decision.  That decision notice is located below. This decision shall be final on March 7, 2025, unless it is appealed consistent with the provisions in HMC 19.10.030. 

WHOM TO CONTACT FOR MORE INFORMATION: Michele Eldridge, City Administrator, at (541) 995-2200, or meldridge@ci.harrisburg.or.us., or Lori Ross, at (541)995-6655, lross@ci.harrisburg.or.us.  The application packet and the full public notice is available below for your review.
