Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV26-032
APPLICANT: Quintanilla Nelson Dalessandro Castro; 386 Mix Avenue; Columbus, OH 43228.
PROPOSED USE: Two-unit dwelling.
NORTH LINDEN AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

A Council variance is required because the R-3 district prohibits two-unit dwellings. Variances for a reduction in the number of required parking spaces from four to two and to reduce the required minimum lot width are included. The proposed two-unit dwelling is consistent with the North Linden Neighborhood Plan Amendment’s (2014) land use recommendation for “Medium Density Mixed Residential” land uses, and with the residential character of the surrounding neighborhood which includes a mix of single- and two-unit dwellings.
