Explanation
Rezoning Application Z20-067
APPLICANT: Prime AE Group; c/o Shawn Mason; 8415 Pulsar Place, Suite 300; Columbus, OH 43240.
PROPOSED USE: Parking lot expansion for mixed-commercial building.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Conditional approval (5-0) on November 12, 2020.
SOUTH LINDEN AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Incomplete Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of one parcel developed with a mixed-commercial building in the CPD, Commercial Planned Development District, and an undeveloped parcel in the R-4, Residential District. The requested CPD, Commercial Planned Development District will permit a six-space expansion of the parking lot. The existing CPD district is included in order to remove screening requirements that are along the eastern boundary of the existing parking lot where the expansion is to occur. The CPD district is comprised of two subareas with Subarea A located in the existing CPD district, and Subarea B only being for the expanded parking lot. The text commits to use restrictions, and provisions addressing lot coverage, access, landscaping, and graphics controls. Variances are included to maintain the existing increased building setback lines. The site is located within the planning boundaries of the South Linden Land Use Plan (2018), which recommends “Mixed Use 2” for most of the site, and “Medium Density Residential” for the R-4 district portion. The Plan includes adoption of Columbus Citywide Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines (2018). Deviation from the land use recommendation is supported for the parking lot expansion because sufficient landscaping and screening have been incorporated into the CPD Plan.
