Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV22-057

APPLICANT: Daniel Mayer; P.O. Box 12802; Columbus, OH 43212.

PROPOSED USE: Mixed-use development.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of a mixed-use building in the L-C-4, Limited Commercial District, which permits residential parking and ground floor residential uses, established by Ordinance #2614-00 (CV00-055) and Ordinance #0654-2005 (CV05-001), respectively. The requested Council variance will carry forward the existing residential parking and ground floor residential uses, and will also permit a separate self-storage facility to be developed. A Council variance is required because the L-C-4, Limited Commercial District does not permit ground floor residential uses or self-storage uses. The site is within the planning boundaries of Northeast Area Plan (2007), which recommends “High Density Residential” land uses at this location. With a site plan that includes extensive landscaping to screen the parking lot from Lifestyle Boulevard, pedestrian access from the sidewalk consistent with the Plan’s guidelines, and a condition from the Department of Public Service to provide additional pedestrian connectivity, staff supports the self-storage use and carrying forward the previously approved ground floor residential uses.
