Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV19-102
APPLICANT: Quattro Venti Ltd.; c/o Matthew Cull, Atty.; Kephart Fisher LLC; 207 North 4th Street; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Single-unit dwelling and an office on one lot.
NEAR EAST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site is developed with a single-unit dwelling and a detached office building in the AR-O, Apartment Office District. The requested Council variance will allow a 1,094± square foot addition to the office building while retaining the single-unit dwelling. A variance is necessary because the single-unit dwelling is only permitted in the AR-O district as a sole use when in compliance with Section 3333.055. Variances for reduced parking lot screening width, number of parking spaces (from 10 to 6), setbacks, and side and rear yards are included in the request. The site is within the planning area of the Near East Area Plan (2005), which recommends medium-high density housing and office uses along the East Broad Street corridor. The proposed variance is consistent with these land use recommendations and will not add new or incompatible uses to the area.
