This ordinance approves the rezoning of approximately 1.54 acres from the R-2 Residential District to the CPD Commercial Planned Development District for property located at 2055-2079 Lockbourne Rd. The applicant, William N. Hersh, intends to develop the site with a commercial use, specifically a tire and auto repair shop. The R-2 district permits single-family residential development, while the CPD district allows for a wider range of commercial uses subject to a development plan. The proposed CPD text details permitted uses, building setbacks, parking requirements, and landscaping standards. The planning commission recommended approval with conditions, including architectural design standards, limitations on hours of operation, and specific buffering requirements along residential property lines. The proposal aligns with the South Side Area Plan, which designates this area for commercial development. The decision was ultimately approved by the City Council.
