Explanation
Rezoning Application: Z21-039
APPLICANT: River Oaks Apartment Management, LLC; c/o David Hodge, Atty.; 8000 Walton Parkway, Suite 260; New Albany, OH 43054.
PROPOSED USE: Lot split for an existing apartment complex.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (6-0) on August 12, 2021.
WEST SCIOTO AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site is zoned L-AR-12, Limited Apartment Residential District and developed with an apartment complex. The requested L-ARLD, Limited Apartment Residential District will conform existing conditions within the apartment complex to facilitate a lot split of five acres on the eastern side of the site, with the future parcel not subject to this rezoning request. The five-acre piece will still be zoned under Z95-056A, which limits its use to green space, and is not subject to this rezoning request. The limitation text commits to a site plan and includes provisions for density, setbacks, traffic commitments, and building design. The site is within the boundaries of the Trabue-Roberts Area Plan (2011), which recommends “Medium-High Density Mixed Residential” land uses at this location. The Plan also states that new development, redevelopment, and expansion proposals should be consistent with the subarea’s proposed land use map. The Plan’s land use map at this location recommends the five acre tract to remain as green space. As this request will only facilitate a lot split with no other changes proposed for the new parcel, and the use remains consistent with the recommendations of the Trabue-Roberts Area Plan, staff is in support.
