Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV09-025
APPLICANT: Plaza Properties; c/o Jackson B. Reynolds III, Atty.; Smith and Hale; 37 West Broad Street; Columbus, Ohio 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Two family and Multi-family residential development.
VICTORIAN VILLAGE COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. This Council variance will allow the subject site to be subdivided for five two-family dwellings. Rezoning Z05-091 and concurrent Council variance CV05-056 allowed five two-family dwellings and two apartment houses as a condominium development but not as a subdivision. This Council variance will allow the two-family dwellings to be on seperate lots while the apartment houses remain unchanged from the previous approval. This Council variance includes two additional variances requested beyond what was approved by a previous Council variance (CV05-056). The additional variances are due to the subdivision of this parcel and the shifting of the dwellings further back on the lot. Staff finds these additional variances to be negligible and supports the applicant's proposal.
