Explanation
Council Variance: CV05-011
APPLICANT: Concept One MAAT LLC; c/o Jill S. Tangeman, Atty.; Plank and Brahm; 145 East Rich Street; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Two-family dwelling and carriage house.
NEAR EAST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. This variance will allow the applicant to rehabilitate a two-family dwelling, carriage house and garage that are located on the same lot. All of these buildings have been in disrepair for some time and there are numerous code violations. The applicant does not intend to alter the exterior of the two-family dwelling and will restore ground level parking in the carriage house. The site has sufficient parking for the three dwelling units. The proposed land-use is consistent with the Near East Area Plan (1995). A hardship exists in that a two-family dwelling and a carriage house not connected by habitable space are not permitted on the same lot in the R-2F, Residential District. Additional variances to development standards are requested to reduce minimum side yard and to eliminate required rear yard in order to address the location of existing buildings.
