Explanation
Rezoning Application Z06-012
APPLICANT: Storage One Co.; c/o Jackson B. Reynolds III, Atty., Smith and Hale; 37 West Broad Street, Suite 725; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Office and storage development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (5-0) on February 8, 2007.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. While the proposed land use does not comply with the Southeast Area Plan (2000), which calls for residential use for the site, Staff realizes that Council's 2001 approval of the rezoning to the L-M, Limited Manufacturing District and the subsequent development of self-storage on the north of this site make the plans recommendation all but obsolete. Staff finds that the proposal for enclosed vehicle storage on the western portion of the site and for office uses along the Gender Road frontage to the east to be less intense than what could currently be developed with the existing L-M, Limited Manufacturing limitation text (Z01-080). The proposed offices and enclosed vehicle storage are compatible with the adjacent residences due to the enclosed nature of vehicle storage facility and the orientation of the vehicle storage doors toward the interior of the site. The proposed development could serve the adjacent residents. Finally, the buffering lighting controls, building material limits, the screening of mechanicals and limits on the hours of operation provided for in the text also help ensure compatibility with the adjacent residences.
