Explanation
Rezoning Application Z18-041
APPLICANT: 1948 Holdings, LLC; c/o Jeffrey L. Brown, Smith & Hale; 37 West Broad Street, Suite 460; Columbus, Ohio 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Expanded vehicle display area for existing automobile dealerships.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (5-1) on June 11, 2015 (4-0-1) on February 14, 2019.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site is developed with two automobile dealerships in the L-C-4, Limited Commercial District. The requested L-C-4, Limited Commercial District will allow additional retail display areas and parking while preserving landscaped parking setbacks between100 and 125 feet to continue the established development pattern for automobile dealerships to the west. The site is located within the boundaries of the Northwest Plan (2016), which recommends “Commercial” land uses at this location. The proposal provides increased landscaping in the setback area, and includes a site plan, use restrictions, and commitments addressing setbacks, lighting controls, delivery and refuse service restrictions, and outdoor speaker prohibitions. Staff believes the proposal contains appropriate development standards in consideration of the residential properties to the north, and is unlikely to support any greater setback reductions for dealerships in this vicinity as long as the north side of Billingsley Road is developed with residential uses.
