Linn County Reconsiders Handicapped Building Additions
Linn County representatives proposed delaying the lean-to plan and extending the north side addition by 55 feet to create 1,200 square feet of humidity controlled storage for computerized voting machines. The remaining 3,300 square feet would provide temporary storage for mechanical voting machines and become a future work center. A house purchase at Sixth Street and 11th Avenue SE is needed before work can start, with blueprint revisions and planning commission approval required before mid October.
