Council Variance Application: CV24-022
?
APPLICANT: Robert Ellis; P.O. Box 8174; Columbus, OH 43201.
?
PROPOSED USE: Three-unit dwelling.
?
NEAR EAST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Disapproval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of one undeveloped parcel in the R-2F, Residential District. The requested Council variance will allow a three-unit dwelling. A variance is required because the R-2F district does not allow three-unit dwellings. Variances to lot width, lot area, building lines, side yards, and a parking reduction from six required to four provided spaces are also included in this request. The site is located within the planning boundaries of the Near East Area Plan (2005), which does not included a specific land use recommendation for this location, however does state that residential development should be consistent with housing types and densities of adjacent residential uses. Staff supports the requested variances as the proposal is compatible with the surrounding housing types and densities, does not represent the introduction of an incompatible use to the area, and provides more housing as prioritized by citywide initiatives.
Title
To grant a Variance from the provisions of Sections 3332.037, R-2F residential district; 3312.49(C), Required parking; 3332.05(A)(4), Area district lot width requirements; 3332.14, R-2F area district requirements; 3332.21, Building lines; 3332.25, Maximum side yards required; and 3332.26, Minimum side yard permitted, of the Columbus City Codes; for the property located at 295 N. 21ST ST.
