Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV05-068

APPLICANT: Maronda Homes; c/o Michael T. Shannon, Atty.; 500 South Front Street; Suite 1200; Columbus, Ohio 43215.

Staff supports this proposal because the site plan/layout required by the existing L-AR-12 zoning remains unchanged by this request and because the changes are interior to the site. No recommendation is being made regarding the hardship aspect of this request.
