Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV23-126

APPLICANT: Avenue Partners; c/o Dave Perry, Agent; David Perry Company, Inc.; 411 East Town Street, 1st Floor; Columbus, OH 43215; and Donald Plank, Atty.; Plank Law Firm; 411 East Town Street, 2nd Floor; Columbus, OH 43215.

PROPOSED USE: Apartment complex.

WEST SCIOTO AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site is subject to Ordinance #3417-2022 (CV22-029), passed December 12, 2022, which allows an apartment complex development containing 205 units with reductions in the required number of parking spaces, parking lot landscaping, vision clearance, building and parking setbacks, and perimeter yard. This Council variance reduces the maximum number of units to 132, will meet the minimum number of parking spaces required, and includes less variances to the overall development of the site. Staff remain in support of this request as the submitted site plan shows an apartment complex that demonstrates consistency with Citywide Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines (2018), and does not significantly deviate from the previously approved plan.
