Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV23-020
APPLICANT: Marble Cliff Canyon, LLC; c/o Dave Perry, Agent; Dave Perry Company; 411 East Town Street, Floor 1; Columbus, OH 43215 and Charles Campisano, Atty.; Thrive Companies; 842 North 4th Street, Suite 260; Columbus, OH 43215
PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
WEST SCIOTO COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The applicant has received a recommendation of approval from Staff and the Development Commission for a concurrent rezoning (Ordinance #2967 -2023; Z23-014) to the AR-2, Apartment Residential District to establish Subareas A and B of the Quarry Trails North development. The site was previously approved for a mixed-use development with up to 500 dwelling units and 5,000 square feet of commercial space (Ordinance #1943-2022; CV21-016) as Subarea F of the Quarry Trails 2 development. This Council variance will allow a 436 486-unit apartment complex on Subarea A with no frontage on a public street, and reduced parking and perimeter yard, and vehicular access and non-accessory over-flow parking on Subarea B. Staff recognizes that this proposal is a reduction in intensity from what was previously allowed, but is still consistent with the land use recommendations of the Trabue/Roberts Area Plan (2011), and aids in the redevelopment of previous quarry property.
