Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV18-076
APPLICANT: Banyon Park Resources, LLC; c/o Jeffrey L. Brown, Atty.; 37 West Broad Street; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Three-unit dwelling.
COLUMBUS SOUTH SIDE AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The requested Council variance will permit a former residential care facility with three suites to be converted to a three-unit dwelling. The site is zoned in the R-2F, Residential District which only permits one- or two-unit dwellings. A parking variance is also included to reduce the required number of spaces from six to three which is an existing condition. The site is within the planning area of the South Side Plan (2014), which recommends “Medium-High Density” land uses for this location. Because of the existing features of the residential care facility which contained three suites and reduced parking, the proposed three-unit dwelling is supported as it will not introduce an incompatible use to the neighborhood. The request is also consistent with the land use recommendation of the South Side Plan.
