Explanation
Rezoning Application Z19-041
APPLICANT: Station 324, LLC; c/o Dave Perry, Agent; David Perry Company, Inc.; 411 East Town Street, 1st Floor; Columbus, OH 43215; and Donald Plank, Atty.; Plank Law Firm; 411 East Town Street, 2nd Floor; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (4-0) on October 10, 2019.
ITALIAN VILLAGE COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site is developed with a multi-unit residential development containing 196 units in the M, Manufacturing District, previously permitted by Council variance Ordinance #0986-2018 (CV17-068). The applicant proposes the AR-2, Apartment Residential District to establish proper zoning for the existing development as conditioned by Ordinance #0986-2018. The site is within the boundaries of the Italian Village East Redevelopment Plan (2005), which recommends manufacturing land uses at this location. Staff supports the proposed zoning as it reflects the existing development, and deviation from the Plan recommendation was supported for CV17-068 due to current market conditions and development trends in Italian Village that support multi-unit residential development. A concurrent Council Variance (Ordinance #2885-2019; CV19-060) has been filed to reduce the building and parking setbacks along East Second Avenue, and to reduce the required perimeter yard.
