Explanation
Rezoning Application Z16-013
APPLICANT: 3342 Henderson Road, LLC; c/o Michael T. Shannon, Atty.; 500 South Front Street, Suite 1200; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Sixteen detached single-unit dwellings.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (4-0) on June 8, 2017.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of three parcels zoned in the RR, Rural Residential District, two of which are developed with a single-unit dwelling and the third is vacant. The applicant is requesting the L-AR-12, Limited Apartment Residential District to permit the development of 16 detached single-unit dwellings (4.5 dwelling units per acre). The site is within the planning area of The Northwest Plan (2016), which recommends low-density residential land uses at this location. Given the limitations included in this request addressing the maximum number of dwellings, stream corridor protection, minimum parking spaces, and building materials, staff finds the proposal to be consistent with the land use recommendations of the Plan and compatible with existing development in the area. A concurrent Council Variance (Ordinance # 1846-2017; CV16-014) has been filed to allow single-unit dwellings in the AR-12 district with reduced development standards.
