Explanation
Council Variance Application: CV24-004
APPLICANT: Juliet Bullock; 4886 Olentangy Boulevard; Columbus, OH 43214.
ITALIAN VILLAGE COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
PROPOSED USE: Two single-unit dwellings on one lot.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The site consists of a single-unit dwelling within the R-4, Residential District.

Variances for fronting, minimum and maximum side yard, rear yard, lot width, and lot area required are included in this request. The site is located within the Short North Special Parking Area. There is no Council adopted land use recommendation for this property. Staff supports the request as it is consistent with the existing residential development pattern of the neighborhood and will not add an incompatible use to the area.
