Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV25-010
APPLICANT: Joshua Tomey; 1286 East Fulton Street; Columbus, OH 43205.
PROPOSED USE: Two single-unit dwellings on one lot.
CLINTONVILLE AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of one parcel developed with a single-unit dwelling and a detached garage in the R-3, Residential District. The requested Council variance will allow the existing detached garage to be converted into an accessory dwelling unit. A Council variance is required because the R-3 district only allows one single-unit dwelling per lot. Variances to required parking, lot width, lot area, fronting, minimum side yard, rear yard, and side yard obstruction are also included in this request. The site is located within the planning boundaries of the Clintonville Neighborhood Plan (2009), which recommends “Single Family” land uses at this location, which is inconsistent with the request. Staff recognize the Plan’s recommendation that the sustainability of each neighborhood is enhanced when a full range of housing options is provided to current and future residents as mitigating factors for support of the use.
