Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV25-129

APPLICANT: Maryhaven Inc. c/o David Hodge, Atty.; 8000 Walton Parkway, Suite 120; Columbus, OH 43207.

PROPOSED USE: Shared living facility.

FAR EAST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of one parcel developed a with shared living facility in the I, Institutional District, for the explicit use and management of Maryhaven, as approved by Ordinance #1281-01 (CV01-042). A new Council variance is required because the property will be changing ownership and will no longer meet the conditions of Ordinance #1281-01. The property will remain a shared living facility with no additions or exterior changes proposed. A variance to reduce required parking from 29 to 22 spaces is also included in this request. The requested Council variance will allow the existing shared living facility to remain at this location, without including specifics regarding ownership or management. The request is consistent with both the Far East Land Use Plan (2019), which recommends “Institutional” land uses and the Columbus Growth Strategy (2026), which recommends “Mixed Use 2” land uses at this location. The reduction in required parking is supportable for this particular use.
