Explanation
Rezoning Application: Z23-062
APPLICANT: 454 E 2nd Avenue LLC; c/o Joel Yakovac; and Elizabeth Seedorf, Atty.; 52 East Gay Street; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Manufacturing access and driveway.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (4-1) on April 11, 2024.
MILO-GROGAN AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The 0.26± acre site consists of three parcels, one undeveloped, and two developed with single-unit dwellings all zoned in the R-4, Residential District. The requested L-M, Limited Manufacturing District will allow the site to be developed with an access driveway for the adjacent manufacturing uses to the north of the site. The site is located within the planning area of the Milo-Grogan Neighborhood Plan (2007), which recommends ”Single-Family Residential” land uses at this location, and includes adoption of the Columbus Citywide Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines (2018). Although the Plan recommends residential land uses, staff support the proposal as it is accessory for the adjacent manufacturing use which is considered a mitigating factor. The additional screening along the east side of the site is consistent with both the Plan and C2P2 Design Guidelines, which recommend landscaping and screening between residential and non-residential uses. Additionally, the proposal is consistent with the manufacturing zoning in the surrounding area and is not considered to be the introduction of an incompatible use.
