Explanation
Council Variance Application CV23-081
APPLICANT: Dua Magan; 5735 Catchfly Road; Westerville, OH 43081.
PROPOSED USE: Daycare center.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site is developed with a former beauty salon in the RR, Rural Residential District. The requested Council variance will allow for the existing building to be re-purposed as a daycare center. A Council variance is required because the RR district only allows daycare centers when accessory to a school or religious facility use. The site is within the planning boundaries of the Northland I Area Plan (2014), which recommends “Office” land uses at this location. Staff supports the proposed use as no major alterations will be made to the site and it is generally consistent with the Plan’s recommended land use.
