Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV16-021
APPLICANT: John A. Gleason, Atty.; 41 South High Street, Suite 3100; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: A three-unit dwelling and a four-unit dwelling on the same lot.
ITALIAN VILLAGE COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. This site is currently undeveloped and zoned in the R-4, Residential District. The requested Council variance will permit the construction of a three-unit dwelling and a four-unit dwelling, for a total of seven units on one parcel. The variance is necessary because the R-4, Residential District permits only one, or three or more four-unit dwellings on a parcel. Variances for required parking spaces, area district requirements, basis of computing area, fronting, building lines, side yards, and rear yard are also included in the request. The site is located within the boundaries of the Italian Village East Redevelopment Plan (2000), which recommends commercial use for this location. The Plan further recommends that the North Fourth Street corridor should have a mix of commercial, residential, and office land uses. Staff finds the proposal to be compatible with the recommendations made in the Plan and also consistent with recent urban infill along the North Fourth Street corridor. Building design will conform to the Italian Village Commission requirements.
