Explanation
Rezoning Application Z20-049
APPLICANT: NRP Properties, LLC; c/o Dave Perry, Agent; David Perry Company; 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 (5-0) on February 11, 2021.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Disapproval. The 7.43± acre site consists of two parcels developed with a former entertainment venue in the M, Manufacturing District and is subject to Ordinance #1462-2020 (CV20-031), passed on July 20, 2020, permitting a multi-unit residential development with up to 180 units. This rezoning request satisfies a condition of that ordinance and permits said multi-unit residential development. The site is within the planning boundaries of the Northland I Area Plan (2014), which recommends “Employment Center” land uses at this location. Although the proposal is for affordable housing and has been approved conceptually with the passage of Ordinance #1462-2020, Planning Division staff does not support the request as it is inconsistent with the land use recommendation for this location and the requested AR-1 district does not match the development and zoning pattern along this portion of Sinclair Road. A concurrent Council Variance (Ordinance #1890-2021; CV20-117) is requested to conform the existing monopole telecommunication antenna and for variances to parking space dimensions, parking setback, parking lot screening, and perimeter yard.
