Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV25-108
APPLICANT: Michellle Scott; 1309 Lee Avenue; Columbus, OH 43219.
PROPOSED USE: Type A family child care home.
NORTH CENTRAL AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of one parcel developed with a single-unit dwelling in the R-3, Residential District. The requested Council variance will allow a Type A family child care home with reduced required parking. Type A child care facilities allow a maximum of 14 children per State of Ohio guidelines, require a Certificate of Zoning Clearance, and are licensed by the State of Ohio. A Council variance is required because although the R-3 district allows Type B family child care homes for up to six children, and day care centers in conjunction with schools or religious facilities, it does not allow Type A child care homes.

Since the primary use of the property will remain a single-unit dwelling, the request is consistent with the land use plan, and will not add an incompatible use to the area.
