Rezoning Application Z20-089
APPLICANT: Manning 569 Holdings, LLC; c/o David Hodge, Atty.; Underhill and Hodge, LLC; 8000 Walton Parkway, Suite 260; New Albany, OH 43054.
PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (6-0) on March 11, 2021.
COLUMBUS SOUTHSIDE AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The 0.61± acre site consists of four parcels in the R-2F, Residential District. The northern parcel is developed with a religious facility, while the southern three parcels are developed with a parking lot. The requested AR-1, Apartment Residential District permits the site to be redeveloped with a multi-unit residential development. While the South Side Plan (2014), recommends “Medium-High Density” residential uses and “Institutional” uses for the site, the proposed district removes an existing vacant parking lot and will not add incompatible uses to the neighborhood. A concurrent Council Variance (Ordinance #0865-2021; CV20-103) has been filed to vary the arrangement of dwelling types with reduced development standards for parking, vision clearance, building setbacks, lot coverage, and perimeter yard.
