Harrisville

Confirm detached with the city

Harrisville had an internal-ADU rule and drafted Ordinance 569 to add detached units. It was discussed September 8, 2026. The draft allows one ADU, requires the owner to live on the property, ties detached size to the lesser of 10% of the lot or the primary floor area, and aims to prevent short-term rental. We have not found minutes showing that draft was adopted. State law already requires a permitted detached unit on a lot of 11,000 square feet or larger.

Internal ADU

Previously permitted under the city’s internal-ADU rule and House Bill 82.

Detached ADU

Required by state law on a qualifying lot. Treat the 10% size figure as draft language until planning confirms Ordinance 569.

Lot

11,000 square feet is the statewide detached floor, now in effect. The September draft also set local minimums — confirm those numbers in the adopted text.

Size

Draft: the lesser of 10% of the lot area or the primary dwelling’s gross floor area. A city may set a size limit. Confirm what was voted.

Parking

Draft: one stall under 650 square feet, two above that, which matches the state cap.

Owner occupancy

Owner occupancy is typical. Confirm.

Rental

Long-term occupancy is the usual rule.

Design

Setbacks, height, and coverage remain local.
