Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV21-129
APPLICANT: Steadfast REIT; c/o Rebecca J. Mott, Atty.; 411 East Town Street, Floor 2; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
GREATER SOUTH EAST 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 request to the L-AR-12, Limited Apartment Residential District (Ordinance #0596-2022; Z21-099) to permit additional units within a multi-unit residential development. The requested Council variance proposes a two dwelling units within the existing clubhouse building of this development, thereby making it a two-unit dwelling. A variance is required because the AR-12, Apartment Residential District does not permit a building containing less than three dwelling units as part of a multiple dwelling development or an apartment complex. Staff supports the requested variance as it will not add an incompatible use to the existing multi-unit residential development.
