Explanation
Rezoning Application: Z22-087
APPLICANT: 1285 West Broad Street; c/o Andrew Wappner; and Sean Knoppe; P.O. Box 732; Worthington, OH 43085.
PROPOSED USE: Parking lot.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (6-0) on February 9, 2023.
FRANKLINTON AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site is a 0.07± acre undeveloped parcel, zoned in the R-4, Residential District. The requested CPD, Commercial Planned Development District permits the development of a seven-space private parking lot that will serve the uses located at 1251 West Broad Street. The CPD text establishes use restrictions and includes supplemental development standards that address parking setbacks, access, buffering and landscaping, and graphics provisions. The text includes a commitment to develop the site in accordance with the submitted site plan, and includes a modification for reduced setback. The site is within the boundaries of the West Franklinton Plan (2014), which recommends “Medium-High Density Residential” land uses at this location. The Plan also includes adoption of the Columbus Citywide Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines (2018). Although the proposal is inconsistent with the Plan’s land use recommendation, the requested CPD district site plan demonstrates adequate landscaping and screening and includes a commitment that bicycle parking will be located along the building frontage of 1251 West Broad Street to alleviate visibility concerns. Staff considers these aspects of the development to be consistent with C2P2 Design Guidelines and supports the request.
