Explanation
Rezoning Application Z12-060
APPLICANT: Vision Development Inc; c/o Connie J. Klema, Atty; 145 East Rich Street, 2nd Floor; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Disapproval (2-3) on April 11, 2013.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. Staff recognizes that the site, which has been zoned in the L-C-4, Limited Commercial, L-M-2, Limited Manufacturing and M-2 Manufacturing Districts for over 25 years, has not developed with commercial uses. The requested L-ARLD, Limited Apartment Residential District will allow development that will generate less traffic than had it been developed under the current zoning. While staff recognizes that there may be a noise issue with this locating near Don Scott airport, the site is not within any LDN contour lines and existing dwellings have been built much closer to the airport than these proposed dwellings. Furthermore, the applicant is limiting density to 326 dwelling units for a density of 15.9 units per acre where up to 17.4 units per acre would be allowed and is sufficiently preserving green space and trees. The applicant has provided commitments regarding vehicular access. Due to these considerations, Staff recommends approval.
