Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV04-021
APPLICANT: Accelerated Construction Services, LTD; c/o Brian T. Reed; 1396 King Avenue; Columbus, Ohio 43212.
PROPOSED USE: Office/warehouse.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The requested Council variance will allow a nonconforming 11,738 square foot office/warehouse with no more than 10,000 square feet of office space in the AR-1, Apartment Residential District. A variance is necessary because the AR-1, Apartment Residential District does not allow office or warehouse uses. Other variances to standards to conform existing conditions include lot coverage, minimum side yard permitted, a reduction in the minimum number of parking spaces required from a possible 40 to 34, and building and parking setbacks. A Hardship exists in that a nonconforming use has already been established on the site, and the existing structure cannot be renovated for office expansion for future tenant use.
