APPLICATION NUMBER:
Z02-042
 
INTRODUCTION:
 
The subject property consists of 11.9± acres generally located at the northeast and northwest quadrants of Warner Road and Hamilton Road. Applicant proposes to rezone the property to create four (4) Sub-Areas. All four (4) sub-areas are proposed to be rezoned to CPD for commercial use. All of the property was commercially zoned in Plain Township. This rezoning application is being submitted to establish comparable commercial zoning in the City of Columbus and to reflect the recommendations of the Rocky Fork-Blacklick Accord for commercial zoning and development of the site.
 
Hamilton Road is under construction and is being extended north from its current terminus at the Hamilton Road/New Albany Expressway interchange to Central College Road. Hamilton Road is designated as a 4-2D arterial in the City of Columbus Thoroughfare Plan. The Rocky Fork-Blacklick Accord ("Accord") designates the Hamilton Road/New Albany Expressway interchange as a gateway to the planning area and the extension of Hamilton Road is a key component to both the gateway concept of the interchange and to the arterial road system within the Accord. A goal of the Accord is to create and implement an arterial road system that provides for the efficient and effective movement of vehicles through the Accord area while reducing vehicular impact on sub-arterial roads to preserve rural roadways. The Accord implementation strategies, Accord land use plan, general planning principles associated with the location of more intense uses on arterials and at major entrance points and existing and anticipated Plain Township and City of Columbus zoning at the intersection of extended Hamilton Road and Warner Road all support applicant's proposal.
 
The location of Sub-Areas A, B, C and D is depicted on the plan titled "Warner Road Development: Zoning Subarea Plan" dated January 2, 2003, signed June 6, 2003 by Donald Plank, Attorney for Applicant, and said plan is hereby incorporated by reference. Sub-Area A is 1.25± acres located at the northwest corner of Warner Road and Hamilton Road. Sub-Area A is proposed to be rezoned to CPD to permit a convenience store with motor vehicle fuel sales, a car wash and commercial uses. Sub-Area B is 4.23± acres generally located north and west of Sub-Area A and will have frontage on both Warner Road and Hamilton Road. Sub-Area B is proposed to be rezoned to CPD for office, retail and restaurant commercial uses. Sub-Area C is 1.95+ acres located at the northeast corner of Warner Road and Hamilton Road. Sub-Area C is proposed to be rezoned to CPD for office, retail and restaurant commercial uses.  Sub-Area D is 4.46+ acres generally located north and east of Sub-Area C. Sub-Area D will have frontage on both Warner Road and Hamilton Road and is proposed to be rezoned to CPD for office commercial uses. All sub-area acreage is net of right of way for dedication of Hamilton and Warner Roads. All land use and sub-area plans submitted with this application reflect all required Hamilton Road and Warner Road right of way dedication.SUBAREA A
