Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV24-033 CV25-033

APPLICANT: Eric Thacker; 2444 Elm Avenue; Columbus, OH 43209.

PROPOSED USE: Three-unit dwelling.

NEAR EAST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

HISTORIC RESOURCES COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of one parcel developed with a two-unit dwelling in the R-3, Residential District. The requested Council variance will allow its conversion into a three-unit dwelling with no structural changes proposed. A variance to required parking, lot width, and lot area are also included in this request. The site is located within the planning boundaries of the Near East Area Plan (2005), which does not have a recommended land use at this location, but recommends that new housing be consistent with the housing types, density, and development pattern of the neighborhood. City staff supports the requested variance as the proposal is consistent with the housing types and density along Bryden Road. The site is also within the Bryden Road Historic District, and is subject to review and issuance of a Certificate of Appropriateness by the Historic Resources Commission for any applicable exterior modifications to the property.
