Explanation
Rezoning Application Z11-016
APPLICANT: NP Limited Partnership Antares Park at Polaris LLC NP Limited Partnership c/o Dave Perry, The David Perry Co; 145 East Rich Street, 3rd Floor; Columbus, OH 43215 and Donald T. Plank, Atty; 145 East Rich Street, 3rd Floor; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (6-0) on June 9, 2011.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Disapproval. Approval. The requested L-ARLD, Limited Apartment Residential District would permit multi-unit dwellings with a maximum net density of 14 units per acre. The site plan commits to preserving existing trees between the proposed development and the existing single-unit dwellings to the north. The applicant is also pursuing a concurrent Council Variance CV11-017 to shift the site to the south to provide more buffering to the adjacent single-unit dwellings to the north. Due to the transitional nature of the proposed use between the single-unit dwellings to the north and the commercial uses to the south and due to the large amount of commercial development already present in the area, deviation from the recommendations of The Far North Plan (1994) is supported. The proposal is consistent with the zoning and development patterns in the area. The Development Commission approved two plans, one with a T-Turnaround (Hammerhead) at the end of Barley Loft Drive and one without. The applicant is moving forward with the plan without the T-Turnaround which was a requirement of the Department of Public Service, Division of Planning and Operations. Without this turnaround, Staff must change our recommendation to disapproval.
