Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV14-036

APPLICANT: The Ellis Company; c/o Jeffrey L. Brown, Attorney; Smith & Hale LLC; 37 West Broad Street, Suite 460; Columbus, Ohio 43215.

PROPOSED USE: Self-storage facility.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The applicant has received a recommendation of approval from Staff and the Development Commission for a concurrent rezoning (Ord. No. 0529-2015; Z14-031) to the C-2, Commercial District. The applicant proposes to demolish the existing car wash and self-storage facility and develop a new self-storage facility on site. The existing self-storage facility was established by Ord. No. 1047-91 (CV89-0078), passed May 13,1991. This request will replace that development with an expanded facility with commitments to a site plan and elevation drawings, including a 20-25 foot buffer area along the north and east property lines in consideration of the adjacent residential development.
