Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV21-104

APPLICANT: A-Temporary Fence, LLC; c/o Richard Signoracci, Agent; 2163 Sprucefield Drive; Columbus, OH 43229.

PROPOSED USE: Industrial development.

NORTH CENTRAL AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The applicant has received a recommendation of approval from Staff and the Development Commission for a concurrent rezoning (Ordinance #1283-2022; Z21-073) to the L-M, Limited Manufacturing District for a fencing contractor’s storage facility. The requested concurrent Council variance includes variances for reduced parking, storage, and building setbacks, and to maintain no parking lot screening or screening for adjacent residential properties. The request is supported as the parking and building setbacks are existing conditions, and additional street trees, maintenance of a landscaped area on the south side of the site, and storage yard fence opacity improve the site’s screening. Staff notes that although the site abuts residentially-zoned property to the east and south, those properties are either undeveloped, are being used for commercial or industrial purposes, or are pending zoning to a commercial district. The request will not introduce incompatible uses to the area as surrounding properties are used for similar purposes.
