Explanation
Rezoning Application Z12-009
APPLICANT: Robert E. Caudy; 3377 Cemetery Road; Hilliard, OH 43026.
PROPOSED USE: Mixed commercial development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (6-0) on May 10, 2012.
FIFTH BY NORTHWEST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site is zoned M-2, Manufacturing District, and was the subject of a 2005 Council variance request (CV05-043) to allow a veterinary practice and accessory pet daycare, boarding and grooming uses within the existing office/warehouse building along with an outdoor animal exercise area. The requested CPD, Commercial Planned Development District replaces the inappropriate industrial zoning district with a suitable commercial zoning designation. The request will allow the continuation of the veterinary-related uses, and will permit the remaining warehouse space to be converted into limited commercial uses. The site is located within the planning area of the Fifth by Northwest Neighborhood Plan (2009), which recommends "Mixed Use" for this area, including office and multi-unit residential development. Since the Plan recommends against new retail uses on Third Avenue, the applicant negotiated all of the proposed uses to the satisfaction of the Planning Division. The CPD includes development standards that address use restrictions and street trees, and includes variances for the building's existing conditions. The requested CPD, Commercial Planned Development District is consistent with the land use recommendations of the Fifth by Northwest Neighborhood Plan, and with the zoning and development pattern of the area.
