The Columbus City Council approved the rezoning of a 0.92-acre undeveloped parcel at 4970 Lindora Drive from the C-4, Commercial District to the L-AR-1, Limited Apartment Residential District. The applicant, Tijen Incorporated, LLC, plans to construct a 20-unit, two-story apartment building on the site. The project received a recommendation for approval from the Development Commission (5-1) and the City Departments, as it aligns with the South East Land Use Plan's density goals (up to 24 du/acre) and the Columbus Citywide Planning Policies. However, the Greater South East Area Commission recommended disapproval. The approval includes a limitation text committing to a maximum of 20 units, specific building heights, setbacks, landscaping, and materials. A concurrent Council Variance was also part of the project to reduce parking lot landscaping and setback requirements.
