Explanation
Rezoning Application: Z17-027
APPLICANT: Timothy R. Henn; c/o David Ludwig, Agent; 8800 Lyra Drive, Suite 600; Columbus, OH 43240.
PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (6-0) on May 10, 2018.
GREATER SOUTH EAST AREA COMMISSION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of one undeveloped parcel zoned in the R, Rural District. The requested PUD-6, Planned Unit Development District will permit the development of 51 detached single-unit dwellings (4.4 dwelling units per acre) on private streets. The development text includes commitments to building setbacks, traffic access, open space, street trees, buffering, and screening. A variance to allow the 51 dwelling units to be on one lot is included in the development text. The PUD Plans depict the site layout and landscaping. Elevation renderings of the dwellings are also provided. The site lies within the planning area of the Southeast Area Plan (2000), which recommends residential land uses at this location, with a site design that maximizes centralized open space. Staff recognizes the constraints with this site on providing centralized open space which has been offset by the substantial landscaped buffer that is proposed along Lehman Road. The request is consistent with the land use recommendation of the Southeast Area Plan, and is compatible with adjacent residential development.
