Explanation
Rezoning Application: Z24-027
APPLICANT: Metro Development LLC, c/o Jeffrey L. Brown, Atty.; 37 West Broad Street, Suite 460; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (4-1) on October 10, 2024.
WESTLAND AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Disapproval. The 21.06± site consists of one undeveloped parcel in the M, Manufacturing District. The applicant requests the L-AR-1, Limited Apartment Residential District to allow a 408-unit apartment complex. The limitation text includes commitments to a maximum number of dwellings units, garage height, setbacks, and traffic improvements. Additionally, the applicant has included commitments to develop the site in accordance with the submitted site plan and building elevations. The proposed residential development is not consistent with the Westland Plan’s (1994) land use recommendation for “Industrial/Manufacturing” uses at this location. The Plan recognizes the site as part of an “Industrial/Office” district, and is within an established development pattern zoned for manufacturing and commercial uses. A concurrent Council variance (Ordinance #3328-2024; CV24-079) has been filed to reduce the building setback and increase the height of private garages.
