Explanation
Rezoning Application: Z21-088
APPLICANT: National Church Residences; c/o Matthew Bierlein; 2335 North Bank Drive; Columbus, OH 43220.
PROPOSED USE: Senior housing development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (6-0) on March 10, 2022.
WESTLAND AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of two undeveloped parcels zoned in the CPD, Commercial Planned Development District. A Council variance (ORD #3101-2019; CV19-096) has been approved for this site which permits a multi-unit residential development. That ordinance was filed to help facilitate funding for an affordable housing project, and was conditioned on no Certificate of Zoning Clearance being granted until a follow-up rezoning to an appropriate apartment residential zoning district has been completed. The requested AR-1, Apartment Residential District will permit multi-unit residential development. Concurrent Council variance (ORD #0944-2022; CV21-107) proposes a 92-unit senior housing development with a commitment to a site plan, and includes variances to increase the building height, reduce the required number of parking spaces from 138 to 70, and to reduce the building lines. The site is located within the boundaries of the Westland Area Plan (1994), which recommends “Open Space/Park/Buffer” land uses for this location. Additionally, the Plan includes early adoption of the Columbus Citywide Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines (2018). C2P2 further states that landscape installations should enhance buildings, create and define public and private spaces, and provide shade, aesthetic appeal, and environmental benefits. The request establishes proper zoning for planned multi-unit residential development that was supported with Council Variance Application #CV19-096. The site plan for the concurrent Council variance addresses (C2P2) Design Guidelines.
