Subject: Variance request received by Planning Department to waive street frontage

requirements at 6003 Veterans Parkway



__________________________________________________________________________



On July 17, 2006, Beacon University submitted a variance request to waive

street frontage requirements for a landlocked parcel. The property is located

at 6003 Veterans Parkway. The applicant is proposing to waive public street

frontage requirements and allow a 20? access easement to serve as the primary

right of entry onto the subject property. The property is currently zoned NC

(Neighborhood Commercial) and LMI (Light Manufacturing/Industrial. This

variance request is allowed only by approval of City Council on a case-by-case

basis.



Please find attached: 1) a site plan displaying the proposed layout of the

property, and 2) a map illustrating the general location of the site. Planning

Department staff is currently reviewing the request. The applicant?s request

will be placed on the Columbus Council Agenda for Tuesday, August 8, 2006 at

9:00 am. A staff report will be sent to the Clerk of Council prior to the

council meeting date.
