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

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

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

SCHEDULED DECISION DATE: February 20, 2026  

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.

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.
