Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV25-058

APPLICANT: Jonathan Romanovich; 2833 Oak Forest Drive; Grove City, OH 43123.

PROPOSED USE: Two-unit dwelling.

SOUTHWEST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of one undeveloped parcel in the R, Rural District. The requested Council Variance will allow the site to be developed with a two-unit dwelling. A Council variance is required because the R district only allows single-unit dwellings as a primary residential land use. Variances to parking setback, vision clearance, lot area, building lines, maximum side yard, minimum side yard, and rear yard are also included in this request. The request is consistent with the Southwest Area Plan’s (2009) land use recommendation of “Low Density Residential” and Columbus Citywide Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines as the project includes a high-level of site and architectural design and is compatible with the surrounding residential development.
