Explanation
Rezoning Application: Z19-040
APPLICANT: DSC Holdings 1050 N Fourth St, 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 (4-0-1) on August 8, 2019.
ITALIAN VILLAGE COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site is developed with a vacant commercial warehouse building zoned in the M-2, Manufacturing District. The applicant proposes the AR-3, Apartment Residential District to permit a multi-unit residential development. Concurrent Council variance (Ordinance #1656-2020; CV19-058) has been submitted to permit 2,500 square feet of commercial space on the ground floor, and to vary the lot area, building lines, and rear yard. The site is included in the Italian Village Urban Commercial Overlay (UCO) and is located within the boundaries of the Italian Village East Redevelopment Plan (2000), which recommends “Commercial” land uses for this location. The Plan states that the Fourth Street corridor should have a mix of commercial, residential, and office land uses, and should support retail and office uses on the first floor of new and existing non-residential buildings, with mixed uses (commercial and/or residential) on the second and third floors. The Planning Division Staff considers this proposal, along with the concurrent Council variance, to be consistent with the Plan’s recommendation for a mixed-use corridor.
