Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV22-121
APPLICANT: Jennifer Maguana; 1952 Harrisburg Pike; Grove City, OH 43123.
PROPOSED USE: Two-unit dwelling.
SOUTH LINDEN AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site is developed with a single-unit dwelling zoned in the R-3, Residential District. The building was originally constructed as a two-unit dwelling, but was converted in 2012. The requested Council variance will permit the single-unit dwelling to be converted back into a two-unit dwelling. A Council variance is required because the R-3 district only permits single-unit dwellings. Variances for a reduced lot width and a parking space reduction from four to two spaces are also included. The site is within the planning area of the South Linden Land Use Plan (2018), which recommends “Medium Density Residential (10-16)” land uses at this location, and includes complete adoption of Columbus Citywide Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines (2018). City staff supports the requested variance as the proposal is consistent with the surrounding housing types and the land use recommendation of the Plan.
