Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV10-005

APPLICANT: Morso Holding Company; c/o David L. Hodge , Atty.; Smith and Hale; 37 West Broad Street, Suite 725; Columbus, OH 43215.

PROPOSED USE: An Apartment Complex.

NORTHEAST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The applicant requests a Council variance to allow a 400 unit apartment complex in the CPD, Commercial Planned Development District and a parking variance to provide one parking space per dwelling unit instead of 1.5 parking spaces per dwelling unit in order to develop residences on this undeveloped site. The site lies within The Northeast Area Plan (2007), which proposes mixed use regional retail / office / light industrial uses for this site. The site is adjacent to another apartment complex and would provide dwellings within walking distance of Easton Town Center, taking advantage of the mixed use nature of the area. The Department of Public Service, Division of Planning and Operations supports this proposal and has supported similar parking variances in this area.
