Explanation
Rezoning Application: Z24-025
APPLICANT: Vista Residential Partners, c/o David Hodge, Atty; 8000 Walton Parkway, Suite 120, New Albany, OH 43054.
PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
GREATER SOUTHEAST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (4-0) on October 10, 2024.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of one undeveloped parcel in the R, Rural District. The applicant requests the ARLD, Apartment Residential District for multi-unit residential development. A residual 0.35± acre portion of the parcel will be retained in the R, Rural District for agricultural purposes. The site is within the boundaries of the South East Land Use Plan (2018) which recommends “Low-Medium Density Residential” of 6-10 dwelling units per acre and “Private Open Space.” Although the ARLD district allows density that exceeds the Plan recommendation, staff notes that there are developments of similar density north of Shannon Road, and therefore supports the proposed district. Concurrent Council variance Ordinance #3407-2024 (CV24-076) proposes an apartment complex containing a maximum of 312 units with a commitment to a site plan. That request includes variances to parking lot screening requirements, lot size, perimeter yard, and also includes traffic-related commitments.
