Explanation

 

Rezoning Application Z18-075

 

APPLICANT: Easton Lodging, LLC; c/o Dave Perry, Agent; David Perry Company, Inc.; 411 East Town Street, First Floor; Columbus, OH 43215, and Donald Plank, Atty.; Plank Law Firm; 411 East Town Street, Second Floor; Columbus, OH 43215.

 

PROPOSED USE: Hotel and commercial development.

 

DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (5-1) on January 9, 2020.

 

NORTHEAST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Disapproval.

 

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION:  Approval. The 3.74± acre site consists of one parcel developed with a religious facility in the R-1, Residential District. The applicant requests the CPD, Commercial Planned Development District comprised of two subareas; Subarea A permits hotel development, and Subarea B permits limited C-4 regional scale commercial uses. The CPD text establishes appropriate use restrictions and supplemental development standards that address building and parking setbacks, building height, vehicular access, street trees, landscaping, building materials and exterior treatments, lighting, and graphic controls for each subarea. Variances are also proposed for a reduction in the required number of parking spaces in the event that a cross-access easements are installed, elimination of required loading spaces, and a reduction in the required building setback lines along Stelzer Road from 60 feet to 45 feet. Additionally, the site will be developed in accordance with the submitted site plan, which depicts the hotel development in Subarea A; and setbacks, landscaping, and traffic access in Subarea B as described in the text. While the Northeast Area Plan (2007) recommends institutional land uses at this location, staff recognizes that the proposed hotel and limited commercial development is complementary of the mixed-use and office development located to the north and west of this location. Additionally, staff supports the reduced building setback along Stelzer Road to accommodate parking at the side and rear of the proposed building in Subarea A as recommended in the Plan.
