Rezoning Application Z13-038
APPLICANT:  Equity, Inc.; c/o Donald Plank, Atty.; Plank Law Firm; 145 East Rich St., 3rd Floor; Columbus, OH 43215.
     
PROPOSED USE:  Commercial development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:  Approval (6-0) on June 13, 2013.
FAR EAST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:  Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION:  Approval.  The site is primarily undeveloped, and is zoned CPD, Commercial Planned Development, L-C-2, Limited Commercial, and R, Rural Districts. The requested CPD, Commercial Planned Development District will allow limited commercial development.  The site is located within the boundaries of the Broad-Blacklick Area Plan (2011), which recommends "Employment Center", including office and light industrial uses, and retail as secondary uses.  In order to address the Plan recommendations regarding retail uses, the CPD text specifies that a maximum of 25,000 square feet of C-4 District uses can only be developed to a depth of 360 feet along the frontage, with C-2 District uses, hotels, and fitness centers permitted on the balance of the site.  The CPD text also contains commitments that address setbacks, sidewalks, access, tree preservation/buffering, building design commitments, and screening.  Variances for parking-related provisions to allow parcel lines to divide parking lots/spaces/maneuvering, and a reduction in the required building setback line from 80 feet to 50 feet are also included in the request.  Additional access to the site is proposed through a portion of a private street (Shadymere Lane) in the adjacent residential development to the east via Ord. No. 2068-2013(CV13-025), which is a signalized access point to East Broad Street. The proposed CPD, Commercial Planned Development District will allow commercial development which consistent with the development and zoning pattern in the area and the recommendations of the Broad-Blacklick Area Plan.  The use restrictions, screening, setbacks and buffering for the southern part of the site will ensure compatibility with the adjacent dwellings, while the access provisions should help maintain the traffic flow along East Broad Street.
