Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV21-092

APPLICANT: NRP Properties, LLC; c/o Dave Perry, Agent; David Perry Company, Inc.; 411 East Town Street, 1st Floor; Columbus, OH 43215, and Donald Plank, Atty.; Plank Law Firm; 411 East Town Street, 2nd Floor; Columbus, OH 43215.

PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.

FAR SOUTH COLUMBUS AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of one undeveloped parcel zoned in the L-M, Limited Manufacturing District (Z98-028). The requested Council variance will permit multi-unit residential development containing up to 175 units. Variances to the building height and setback commitments established in the limitation text of Ordinance 1971-098 (Z98-028) are included in this request. This proposed development will be subject to a competitive funding process with the Ohio Housing Finance Agency which requires certain land attributes including compliant zoning. The Council variance process is supported to assist in this state funding application process as Rezoning Application #Z21-091, a request for the AR-1, Apartment Residential District, has been filed and is in the formal review process. The site is within the planning boundaries of the Scioto Southland Plan (2007), which recommends light manufacturing land uses at this location. Despite this recommendation, the variances are supported as the site has remained undeveloped for many years and the proposed us is more compatible with the residential uses adjacent to the site.
