Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV22-051
APPLICANT: Perennial Housing Partners, LLC; c/o Rebecca Mott, Atty.; Plank Law Firm; 411 East Town Street, 2nd Floor; 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 (Ordinance #2551-2022; Z22-037) to the L-AR-1, Limited Apartment Residential District to permit the existing 80-suite extended stay hotel to be converted into an 80-unit apartment complex. The requested variances will reduce the required number of parking spaces from 120 to 94 provided spaces, permit the existing dumpster area to be located in the perimeter yard, and permit the existing perimeter yard to be less than 15 feet. Staff supports the variances as they are mainly attributed to existing site conditions, and multi-unit residential development is supportable with the Columbus City Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines (2018), recommendations for mixed- use and higher- density residential development along primary corridors.
