Explanation
Rezoning Application: Z21-091
APPLICANT: NRP Properties, LLC; c/o Dave Perry, Agent; David Perry Company, Inc.; 411 East Town Street, 1st Floor; Columbus, OH 43215, and Donald Plank, Atty.; Plank Law Firm; 411 East Town Street, 2nd Floor; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (5-0) on May 11, 2023.
FAR SOUTH COLUMBUS AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The 5.50± acre site consists of one undeveloped parcel in the L-M, Limited Manufacturing District. Ordinance #0188-2022 (CV21-092) has been approved for multi-unit residential development containing up to 175 units at this site. Staff supported the Council variance to assist in the state funding application process, subject to the filing of a rezoning application to an appropriate zoning district. The requested AR-1, Apartment Residential district will permit multi-unit residential development consistent with the Council variance approved by City Council. Although the Scioto Southland Plan (2007), the planning area that encompasses the subject site, recommends “Light Manufacturing” land uses at this location, staff recognizes the site’s proximity to the South High Street primary corridor and adjacent residential uses, and is therefore supportive of the proposed use. A concurrent Council Variance (Ordinance #2018-2023; CV23-025) has been filed and includes a variance to reduce the required perimeter yard.
