Explanation
Rezoning Application Z19-090
APPLICANT: Olentangy Square L.P.; c/o Charlie Fraas and Derek Ehlers, Agent; 250 Civic Center Drive, Suite 500; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Add dumpsters to existing commercial development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (4-0) on February 26, 2020.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site is developed with a shopping center and two outparcels zoned in the CPD, Commercial Planned Development District (Z84-127). The requested CPD, Commercial Planned Development District will permit the installation of exterior dumpsters with code compliant screening and will update development standards to reflect existing site characteristics. The CPD text establishes use restrictions and supplemental development standards that address site density, lot coverage, setbacks, building height, landscaping and screening, and building material commitments. The request also includes variances to allow aisles, driveways, and maneuvering areas to be divided by property lines, to eliminate wheel stop devices along interior property lines, to increase the maximum permitted height of existing light poles, and to reduce the number of required parking spaces for the existing development. Staff supports this proposal as The Northwest Plan recommends “Mixed Use I” land uses at this location, and no changes are proposed to the existing commercial uses.
