PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
COLUMBUS SOUTHSIDE AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The applicant has received a recommendation of approval from Staff and the Development Commission for a concurrent rezoning (Ordinance #0865-2021; Z20-089) to the AR-1, Apartment Residential District. The applicant proposes a multi-unit residential development totaling 17 units on two parcels divided by a public alley. The requested Council variance will allow a mix of single- and three-unit dwellings and a six-unit apartment, and permits three garage parking spaces for the northern parcel to be provided on the southern parcel. Staff finds the requested variances to be supportable as they will allow a multi-unit residential development that is consistent with residential infill in urban neighborhoods. Additionally, the submitted site plan demonstrates preservation of the bell tower of the existing religious facility.
