Explanation
Rezoning Application: Z21-104
APPLICANT: Goodwill Industries of Central Ohio, Inc.; c/o Dave Perry, Agent; David Perry Company; 411 East Town Street, 1st Floor; Columbus, OH 43215, and Donald Plank, Atty.; Plank Law Firm; 411 East Town Street, 2nd Floor; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (4-0-2) on September 8, 2022.
5TH BY NORTHWEST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS’ RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of one parcel and part of another parcel developed with the Goodwill of Central Ohio’s headquarters in the M, Manufacturing District. The requested AR-3, Apartment Residential District will permit multi-unit residential development. While the Fifth by Northwest Neighborhood Plan (2009) recommends “Mixed-use” and “Industrial (Light)” land uses for the site, the residential development is in conjunction with a proposed commercial building at the southwest corner of West Fifth Avenue and Edgehill Road. Together these buildings are consistent with the Plan’s recommendation for “Mixed-use” land uses. The proposed uses and densities will help support transit, neighborhood retail, and encourage a more walkable neighborhood. Additionally, the request is compatible with recent high-density residential and mixed-use developments along both the West 5th Avenue and West 3rd Avenue corridors. The applicant has filed a concurrent Council variance (ORD #2954-2022; CV21-154) which includes variances to permit off-site parking in the AR-3 portion of the site, as well as for building height, maneuvering, lot coverage, building setbacks, rear yard, and building design standards.
