Explanation

Rezoning Application Z04-031

APPLICANT: Village Communities Corporation; c/o Jeffrey L. Brown, Atty.; Smith and Hale; 37 West Broad Street; Columbus, Ohio 43215.

PROPOSED USE: Multi-family residential development.

DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (5-0) on June 10, 2004.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The requested L-AR-12, Limited Apartment Residential District would allow a 100-unit multi-family development at a density of 10.19 units/acre. The limitation text addresses buffering and screening for the adjacent single-family subdivision, landscaping, and commits to a water/entrance feature and pedestrian access to the park to the south. Because a school was never developed on the site, the Far North Plan
(1994) recommendation that the site be developed with a school and other community uses no longer applies. The requested L-AR-12, Limited Apartment Residential District is consistent with the zoning and development patterns of the area.
