Explanation
Rezoning Application: Z21-012
APPLICANT: Michael Pogoda; 30500 Northwestern Highway, Suite 525; Farmington Hills, MI 48334.
PROPOSED USE: Self-storage facility.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (5-0) on May 13, 2021.
FAR SOUTH COLUMBUS AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of one parcel developed with a former retail building in the C-4, Commercial District, and is subject to Ordinance #2935-2018 (CV18-072) which permits self-storage uses inside the existing building. The requested L-M, Limited Manufacturing District will permit expansion of the self-storage facility into the existing parking lot. The limitation text establishes appropriate use restrictions and supplemental development standards that address building setback, traffic access, landscaping, building height, dumpster location, and lighting. While the proposed L-M district is not consistent with the Scioto Southland Plan’s (2007) recommendation for “Mixed-Use Regional Commercial” land uses at this location, the site is currently being used as a storage facility and the submitted site plan demonstrates several requests from Planning Division staff including the building arrangement, landscaping and street trees along Williams Road, additional landscaping along the western property line, and landscaped beds along the building façade facing east, mitigating the site impact on adjacent properties. Additionally, the submitted building elevations show an awning on the building façade facing both Williams Road and east towards the adjacent parking lot, as requested by staff. This request does not add incompatible uses to the area.
