Department of Agriculture, Rural Develop- ment, Rural Utilities Service. The project includes improvements to the City’s wastewater collection system and wastewater treatment plant. Any comments regarding this application should be submitted in writing to: Mr. Nicholas Green, John Day City Manager, 450 E. Main Street, John Day, Oregon 97845; or by email to: cityofjohn- day@grantcounty-or.gov. 101 Legal Notices 101 Legal Notices NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING Notice is hereby given that the John Day Planning Commission and John Day City Council are considering the following land use ac- tions, as described herein: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT (TYPE III PROCEDURE) CUP 19- 03 Steve and Kathy Smartt are the owners of 212 Valley View Drive (Map Number 13S31E22A Tax Lot 1066). This property is zoned Residential General (RG). Mr. Smartt is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to build an accessory structure exceeding the size re- quirements permitted by the city development code. The Code al- lows accessory structures with a permitted use to be built no taller than 14 ft. and no larger than 1,000 sq. ft. of building footprint without a Conditional Use Permit. Mr. Smartt’s proposed building would be 30x40 ft. with a height of approximately 18 ft. LAND PARTITION (TYPE III PROCEDURE) LP-19-03 Sally Knowles owns the property at 603 NW Canton Street (Map Number 13S31E23CA Tax Lot 2600) which is zoned Residential Lim- ited. The owner wishes to partition this property into two parcels: one parcel of .81 acres and the other approximately .38 acres. Land partitions larger than one (1) acre shall be processed using a Type III procedure under Section 5-4.1.040 of the City of John Day Devel- opment Code (the “Code”), which requires a hearing before the John Day Planning Commission prior to approval of the preliminary plat. SITE DESIGN REVIEW (TYPE III PROCEDURE) SDR 19-05 The Heart of Grant County is a nonprofit organization that works with survivors of domestic violence. The organization owns a vacant lot at 115 NW Bridge street where they seek to build a 3,472 sq. ft. building comprised of offices, meeting space, and living quarters to provide resources and emergency shelter to survivors of domestic violence. REVIEW OF CI-16-01 The John Day Planning Commission will be reviewing a class B variance granted to Riverside Mobile Home Park on November 7th, 2016. The variance, which authorized Riverside Mobile Home Park to place single-section manufactured homes that do not meet the minimum size requirements of the John Day City Development Code, is currently in a state of suspension. The variance is being reviewed on the grounds of noncompliance after an inspection by the city concluded that roof pitch requirements, thermal envelope requirements, floodplain development requirements, and building/ placement permit requirements had been violated in multiple in- stances. These violations may be grounds for revoking the variance. The property which includes 23-acres of mobile home spaces is zoned General Commercial.
