Landmarks Commission gives conceptual OK for 41-43 Columbus remodel, seeks variance for reduced garage setback
Summary
The Canal Winchester Landmarks Commission gave conceptual approval June 22 to a renovation that would convert a termite-damaged duplex at 41-43 Columbus Street into a single-family home with a rear two-car garage, recommending a setback variance and setting material conditions for the roof and exterior.
The Canal Winchester Landmarks Commission on June 22 conceptually approved a renovation plan for 41-43 Columbus Street that would convert a termite-damaged duplex into a single-family home and add a two-car garage, provided several conditions are met. The commission recommended that the Planning and Zoning Commission grant a variance so the attached garage could be as close as 1'7" to the south property line and specified roof materials for original and later roof areas.
Applicant Kevin Ilich said the proposal would remove the rear addition, stabilize the foundation and add parking; he told commissioners the reduced setback would restore basement access and create additional parking. The commission’s motion — made by Pete Lynch and seconded by David Craycraft — approved conceptualization with four conditions, including use of standing-seam metal in "Tinners Grey" on the original roof portion and asphalt shingles in "graphite" on the remainder, allowance to remove the foundation skirting, and further review before final approval. Staff flagged potential property-boundary encroachment and asked for documentation showing the proposed garage placement relative to neighboring parcels.
