Explanation
Rezoning Application Z15-018
APPLICANT: Michael Crabtree; c/o Dave Perry, Agent; David Perry Company, Inc.; 145 East Rich Street, 3rd Floor; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Industrial and commercial development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (6-0) on October 8, 2015.
GREATER HILLTOP AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site is developed with storage uses, a single-unit dwelling, a commercial garage, a tire shop, and an automobile sales lot zoned in the M-2, Manufacturing District. The applicant requests the M, Manufacturing District to secure proper zoning for existing commercial uses, and to rectify zoning code violations for the automobile sales lot that was established without a Certificate of Zoning Clearance. The site is located within the planning area of The Greater Hilltop Plan Amendment (2010) which recommends “Neighborhood Mixed Use” for this location. The M, Manufacturing District is more consistent with the Plan’s recommendation for neighborhood mixed use by allowing commercial uses in addition to the already permitted industrial uses. Since there are residential districts within 600 feet of this site, the M zoning would not allow for more objectionable uses unless a variance from the Board of Zoning Adjustment was granted.
Title
To rezone 2219 EAKIN ROAD (43223), being 2.33± acres located on the south side of Eakin Road, across from the intersection with Whitethorne Avenue, From: M-2, Manufacturing District, To: M, Manufacturing District (Rezoning # Z15-018).
Body
WHEREAS, application No. Z15-018 is on file with the Building and Zoning Services Department requesting rezoning of 2.33± acres from M-2, Manufacturing District, to M, Manufacturing District; and
WHEREAS, the Development Commission recommends approval of said zoning change; and
WHEREAS, the Greater Hilltop Area Commission recommends approval of said zoning change; and
WHEREAS, the City Departments recommend approval of said zoning change because the requested M, Manufacturing District is more consistent with the Greater Hilltop Plan Amendment land use recommendation for neighborhood mixed use by allowing commercial uses in addition to the already permitted industrial uses. Since there are residential districts within 600 feet of this site, more objectionable manufacturing uses would not be permitted; now, therefore:
