Explanation
Rezoning Application Z14-032
APPLICANT: Campus Partners for Community Urban Redevelopment; c/o John P. Kennedy and Michael T. Shannon, Attys.; Crabbe Brown & James, LLP; 500 South Front Street, Suite 1200; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Mixed-use development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (5-0) on September 11, 2014.
UNIVERSITY AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
UNIVERSITY AREA REVIEW BOARD RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The requested CPD, Commercial Planned Development District will allow redevelopment of the site with mixed commercial uses and up to 500 dwelling units known as Campus Gateway Phase II. The site is located wholly or partially within several planning areas, and the North High Street frontage is within the Urban Commercial Overlay. The Weinland Park Neighborhood Plan (2006) recognizes most of the site as a residential redevelopment area. The University Neighborhoods Revitalization Plan (1996), which is being updated, calls for community commercial and moderate intensity residential uses for this area, and the Plan for High Street (2000), and the University/High Street Development & Design Guidelines (2002) also contain relevant recommendations that have been incorporated into the proposal. The site is located within the University Impact District in which development proposals require a Certificate of Approval from the University Area Review Board (UARB). This rezoning includes a "Campus Gateway II Urban Framework Plan" that provides urban design principles that will be incorporated into projects as they are considered by the UARB. The proposed CPD District establishes the 110-foot height district and seven subareas with use restrictions and development standards that address setbacks, building height limitations, parking ratios/shared parking, landscaping, building design, and lighting and graphics controls. The requested CPD, Commercial Planned Development District will allow a mixed commercial and residential development that is consistent with applicable land use recommendations, and continues redevelopment goals for this segment of the North High Street corridor.
