The proposed project involves the rezoning of eight parcels totaling 2.35 acres from R-4 Residential District to AR-3 Apartment Residential District, coupled with multiple council variances. The plan is for a 5-story, 265-unit multi-family apartment building with an attached three-and-a-half-level structured parking garage. Key variances include reductions in required parking spaces, EV parking minimums, clear vision triangle size, and modifications to lot coverage, building setback, rear yard, and landscaping requirements. The site is located at the southwest corner of Gerrard Avenue and Western Avenue. Staff recommended approval, noting the project's consistency with the Fifth by Northwest Neighborhood Plan (2009) and Columbus Citywide Planning Policies (C2P2) Design Guidelines (2018). The Fifth by Northwest Area Commission voted 5-1 to recommend approval of the project.
