Explanation
Rezoning Application Z16-079
APPLICANT: Arch City Development; c/o Nathan Sampson, Agent; 990 West Third Avenue; Columbus, OH 43212.
PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential building.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (6-0) on May 11, 2017.
ITALIAN VILLAGE COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The 0.39± acre site consists of three parcels zoned in the C-4, Commercial District, and is developed with two industrial/commercial buildings. The applicant is requesting the AR-1, Apartment Residential District and proposes the development of a fourteen-unit apartment building. The site is within the boundaries of the Italian Village East Redevelopment Plan (2000), which recommends commercial land uses at this location. While the proposed use is not consistent with that recommendation, the Plan also recommends that the North Fourth corridor be developed with a mix of commercial, residential, and office uses. The Planning Division has indicated that this proposal is consistent with the recommendation for a mixed-use corridor along North Fourth Street. A concurrent Council Variance (Ordinance # 1439-2017; CV16-077) has been filed to reduce the minimum parking spaces required from 21 spaces to 15 spaces, and includes variances to building height, vision clearance, lot coverage, building lines, maximum side yard and minimum side yard.
