Explanation
Rezoning Application: Z21-017
APPLICANT: Thrive Companies; c/o Dave Perry, Agent; David Perry Company, Inc.; 411 East Town Street, 1st Floor; Columbus, OH 43215; and Charles Campisano, Atty.; 842 North Fourth Street, Suite 200; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Multi-unit residential development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (6-0) on March 10, 2022.
WEST SCIOTO AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The 9.22± acre site consists of an undeveloped parcel zoned in the M, Manufacturing District. The requested AR-1, Apartment Residential District will permit multi-unit residential development. The site is located within the planning area of the Trabue/Roberts Area Plan (2011), which recommends “Quarry” use for this location reflective of the site’s historical use, but the Plan also states that, “Reuse of quarry should be restored in a manner that is compatible with the community and maximize recreational reuse potential where appropriate.” The proposed residential development is adjacent to parkland with easements for a greenway trail through the site; therefore the use is supported. Columbus Citywide Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines (2018), which applies to this area, state that parking lots should be hidden to the greatest extent possible by being placed to the side or rear of buildings; development should front parks and open space; pedestrian connectivity should be included; additional bicycle parking to offset varied parking spaces should be provided; and that building design shall follow recommended design guidelines. Concurrent Council variance Ordinance #1945-2022 (CV21-020) proposes two five-story apartment buildings totaling 315 units with variances to permit commercial access on a private street within the development to connect to the nearby quarry redevelopment site, increased building height from 60 to 65 feet, reduced parking from 473 to 360 spaces, and reduced perimeter yard. The site plan included with CV21-020 addresses Plan and C2P2 design guidelines, and Planning Division staff has also reviewed building elevations which are consistent with the recommendations of these planning documents.
