Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV16-015
APPLICANT: 876 S. Front LLC; c/o Donald Plank, Atty.; Plank Law Firm; 145 East Rich Street, 3rd Floor; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Multiple dwelling development.
BREWERY DISTRICT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The applicant has received a recommendation of approval from Staff and the Development Commission for a concurrent rezoning (Ordinance No. 1814-2016; Z16-014) to the AR-1, Apartment Residential District to allow a 20-unit multiple dwelling development. The requested variances will permit four 2-unit dwellings as part of a multiple dwelling development in the AR-1, Apartment Residential District, a height increase to 40 feet from 35 feet, and vary fronting, building lines, and perimeter yard requirements. City Departments recommend approval as the Brewery District Plan recommends the preservation of the Brewery District’s architectural and urban character through compatible redevelopment and rehabilitation. The 2-3 unit dwellings proposed on the site closely resemble the historic residential development styles in the surrounding district and compliment the corridor more than the aged industrial building currently existing on site.
