Explanation
Council Variance: CV04-035.
APPLICANT: Daniel Downing; c/o Dean Berlon, Agent; Urban Order Architecture; 797 Summit Street; Columbus, Ohio 43215.
PROPOSED USE: To permit two single-family dwellings developed on the same lot.
VICTORIAN VILLAGE COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. This variance will make two existing non-conforming single-family dwellings on the same lot conforming and permit a two-story frame addition to 928 Dennison Avenue. The ARLD, Apartment Residential District allows one single-family dwelling as a sole use as outlined in C.C. 3355.055. The site plan indicates the two existing single-family dwellings, an existing two-car garage, and a proposed two-story frame addition to 928 Dennison Avenue. Building design will conform to specifications approved by the Victorian Village Commission. A hardship exists in that the owner cannot obtain permits required for the proposed addition at 928 Dennison Avenue because two single-family dwellings are not permitted on the same lot in the ARLD, Apartment Residential District. Additional variances to development standards are requested to reduce required lot width, to permit a single-family dwelling that does not front a public street, to reduce minimum side yard, to reduce rear yard, to reduce the Dennison Avenue building setback line and to reduce the size of two parking spaces. All variances to development standards reflect existing conditions and are not related to the proposed building addition.
