Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV22-101

APPLICANT: Paloma; c/o Michael Shannon, Atty.; 8000 Walton Parkway, Suite 260; New Albany, OH 43054.

PROPOSED USE: Storage in conjunction with a spa business.

5TH BY NORTHWEST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of one parcel developed with a spa business in the C-4, Commercial District. The applicant proposes the use of a shipping container for accessory storage in the C-4, Commercial District. A Council variance is required because storage is not a permitted use in the C-4 district. The site is located in the West Fifth Avenue Urban Commercial Overlay (UCO) and within the boundaries of the 5th by Northwest Area Plan (2009), which recommends “Mixed Use” land uses at this location. The Plan includes early adoption of the Columbus Citywide Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines. Staff supports the requested use as it is generally consistent with the Plan’s land use recommendation, does not interfere with parking and maneuvering, and is limited to the size and location as shown on the submitted site plan.
