Explanation
COUNCIL VARIANCE: CV04-041.
APPLICANT: Darci L. Congrove and John Pribble, III; c/o Christopher A. Rinehart, Atty.; Carlile Patchen & Muphy, LLP; 366 East Broad Street; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Apartment hotel (bed and breakfast).
GERMAN VILLAGE AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. This council variance will allow the applicant to establish a two room apartment hotel (bed and breakfast) in an existing single-family dwelling on a lot zoned in the R-2F, Residential District. The applicant is not currently living in the dwelling but may wish to do so in the future. A hardship exists in that an apartment hotel (bed and breakfast) is not a permitted use in the R-2F zoning district, which was established by an area-wide rezoning in the German Village area. Parking will be provided by two spaces in an existing garage and two additional on-site parking spaces, and gravel surfaced maneuvering areas will be improved to comply with C.C. 3342.24. The proposed bed and breakfast is a low intensity use that should integrate well with the surrounding German Village residential neighborhood.
