APPLICANT: Troon Management Ltd; c/o W. Vincent Rakestraw; 4930 Reed Road, Suite 200; Columbus, OH 43220.
PROPOSED USE: Manufacturing, commercial and/or office development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (5-0) on March 13, 2008.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The requested M, Manufacturing District will allow manufacturing and/or commercial development. This is one of the few remaining residentially zoned properties in an area which is predominantly zoned for manufacturing. Staff finds the current residential zoning to be unsuited to the area and supports this rezoning to the M, Manufacturing District because it will make the zoning and land uses consistent with the existing surrounding manufacturing zoning and land uses in accordance with the West Columbus Interim Development Concept (1991).
