Rezoning Application Z22-025
APPLICANT: The Ohio State University; and the State of Ohio; c/o Jeffery L. Brown, Atty.; 37 West Broad Street, Suite 460; Columbus, OH 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Parking lot expansion for existing medical clinic.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (5-0-1) on July 14, 2022.
NEAR EAST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The 9.9± acre site consists of one parcel developed with a medical clinic zoned in the CPD, Commercial Planned Development District, and an undeveloped parcel zoned in the M-2, Manufacturing District. The requested CPD, Commercial Planned Development District will permit a parking lot expansion for the existing medical office, and is comprised of two subareas: Subarea A, the medical clinic within the existing CPD district (Z18-069), and Subarea C, the site of the proposed parking lot. Subarea B of Z18-069 is not included in this rezoning request, and will likely be rezoned for a future project. The CPD text includes use restrictions, and supplemental development standards addressing building height, parking setbacks, lot coverage, traffic access, off-site traffic improvements, bicycle parking, street trees, landscaping, and graphics provisions. Modifications of code standards to permit parcel lines to divide maneuvering areas and parking spaces, to eliminate parking lot trees in Subarea C, and to exceed the maximum number of parking spaces for the medical clinic are included in the text. The requested CPD is consistent with the Near East Area Plan’s (2005) land use recommendation for “Office/Light Industrial/Mixed Uses” at this location.
