Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV24-068

APPLICANT: 160 Driving Academy; c/o Jeffrey L. Brown; 37 West Broad Street, Suite 460; Columbus, OH 43215.

PROPOSED USE: Truck driving school.

SOUTHWEST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of a portion of a parcel developed with a parking lot that previously served the now vacant Cooper Stadium which is proposed to be redeveloped as a mixed-use development under the CPD, Commercial Planned Development District (Ordinance #2677-2023; Z19-060). A Council variance is required because the CPD district does not allow the proposed truck driving school. The site is located within the planning boundaries of the Southwest Area Plan (2009), which recommends “Community Commercial” land uses at this location. Additionally, the Plan includes early adoption of Columbus Citywide Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines (2018). Staff supports the request because it is limited to a certain area of the site with access restrictions, is considered institutional in nature, and does not represent any changes to the anticipated development as proposed under this CPD district.
