Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV19-032
APPLICANT: Christopher J. Knoppe; PO Box 732; Worthington, OH 43085.
PROPOSED USE: A carriage house on a lot developed with a single-unit dwelling.
FRANKLINTON AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site is developed with a single-unit dwelling zoned in the R-2F, Residential District. The requested Council variance will permit the addition of a carriage house on the rear of the property. The variance is necessary because while the R-2F district permits two dwellings in one building, two separate single-unit dwellings on the same lot are prohibited. Variances for reduced number of parking spaces, lot width, lot area, fronting, minimum side yard, rear yard, and private garage are included in this request. The site is within the boundaries of the West Franklinton Plan (2014) which recommends “Medium-High Density Mixed Residential (10-16 du/AC).” Additionally, the Plan includes adoption of the Columbus Citywide Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines. Planning Division Staff recognize this proposal as being generally consistent with the land use recommendation of the West Franklinton Plan and the Columbus Citywide Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines.
