Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV06-042
APPLICANT: Second Shiloh Baptist Church; c/o Robert Shamansky; 88 East Broad Street, Suite 900; Columbus, Ohio 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Church.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. This request will allow a church in the L-M-2, Limited Manufacturing District. A council variance is necessary in that a church is not a permitted use in the L-M-2, Manufacturing District, which allows office, warehouse and bulk storage uses. The proposed church will have to meet all of the development standards of the L-M-2 district including, but not limited to, lot coverage, height, landscaping, screening and lighting. A church is a permitted use in residential zoning districts, including the adjacent R-2 Residential District. This request is consistent with the Tri-South Neighborhood Plan (2004), which recommends mixed use and single-family uses on the site. Approval of this request will not introduce an incompatible use to the area.
