Explanation
Rezoning Application: Z22-098
APPLICANT: CALKAR LLC; c/o Donald T. Plank, Atty.; Plank Law Firm; 411 East Town Street, 2nd Floor; Columbus, OH 43015.
PROPOSED USE: Manufacturing development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (5-0) on May 11, 2023.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The 1.60± acre site consists of portions of six commonly owned parcels zoned in the R-4, Residential District. Two of the parcels are undeveloped, and four contain an existing office building, parking and access area, and vehicle storage for the existing business. Part of the site is subject to Ordinance #1186-94 (CV94-009) which permitted an office building in the R-4, Residential District while a rezoning to the C-2, Commercial District was pending, but was not completed. The proposed M, Manufacturing District will permit all less objectionable manufacturing uses, including vehicle storage at this location, and will conform the existing use. The site is located within the boundaries of the East Columbus Neighborhood Plan (2012), which recommends “Light Industrial” land uses at this location. Additionally, part of the site is located within the boundaries of the I-670 Graphics Control Overlay. Staff is supportive of the requested M, Manufacturing District as it results in the zoning map accurately reflecting the existing manufacturing and storage uses, and is consistent with the Plan’s recommendation for light industrial land uses at this location.
