Explanation
Rezoning Application Z06-050
APPLICANT: Columbus One Investors; c/o Jeffrey L. Brown, Attorney; 37 West Broad Street; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Commercial development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (4-1) on September 14, 2006.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The requested CPD, Commercial Planned Development District would permit a wider range of commercial development on the site, including most C-4, Commercial District uses. The current C-2 district permits only offices and other low-intensity commercial uses. The CPD plan and text commit to customary development standards. The site is located within the boundaries of the West Columbus Interim Development Concept (1991), which recommends office/transitional uses for the site. In this case, staff can support a deviation from the plan, since the adjacent properties to the north and west are zoned in the C-2, Commercial District, which provides a transition to the apartments farther to the north. Staff would not support this request without the transition provided by the adjacent C-2 zoning districts. The proposed development is consistent with the zoning and development patterns of the area.
