Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV22-005

APPLICANT: Preferred Living.; 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.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The applicant has received a recommendation of approval from Staff and the Development Commission for a concurrent rezoning (Ordinance #1668-2022; Z22-007) to the L-AR-1, Limited Apartment Residential District for a multi-unit residential development with a maximum of 168 apartment units. The requested Council variance permits a reduced perimeter yard from 25 feet to 15 feet for Buildings #1 and #3, and further reduced to 5 feet for detached garages and surface parking spaces along the eastern property line, as shown on the submitted site plan. Staff supports the variances as it will have minimal impact on the neighboring multi-unit residential development. The Rocky Fork-Blacklick Accord Implementation Panel unanimously recommended approval of this request at their April 21, 2022 meeting.
