Ordinance 02-22
To: Members of Dublin City Council
From: Dana L. McDaniel, City Manager
Initiated By: Jennifer M. Rauch, AICP, Director of Planning
Nichole M. Martin, AICP, Senior Planner
Date: March 15, 2022
Re: Update - Ordinance 02-22 – Rezoning the Shoppes at River Ridge including
two parcels (PIDs 273-008269 and 273-012909) from BSD-C, Bridge Street
District - Commercial District, to BSD-SRN, Bridge Street District - Scioto
River Neighborhood District; and Zoning one parcel (PID 273-012910),
formerly right-of-way, BSD-SRN, Bridge Street District - Scioto River
Neighborhood District, totaling 14.02 acres located southeast of the Riverside
Drive and S.R. 161 roundabout (Case 21-189Z).
Summary
Ordinance 02-22 was introduced at the March 7, 2022 City Council as a request for review and
approval of a standard district rezoning of three parcels within the Bridge Street District in
accordance with the recommendations of the Community Plan. City Council requested follow up
information that is provided below.
Updates
The proposal requests the rezoning of three parcels from one Bridge Street District zoning
district to another Bridge Street District zoning district. Specifically, BSD – C, Bridge Street
District, Commercial District to BSD – SRN, Bridge Street District, Scioto River Neighborhood
District. As outlined below, there are many benefits to City and the applicant with this rezoning.
BSD Intent
As highlighted during the introduction, the BSD Districts Scope and Intent is provided in zoning
code section 153.058(B). The intent of the BSD – C District is to allow the continuation of pre-
existing uses like automotive dealers, retail centers, and fuel stations; and to facilitate future
rezoning to an alternative zoning district as pre-existing uses are discontinued to ensure only
the most desirable uses and development pattern are permitted.
Neighborhood District
The requested change in zoning designation to a Neighborhood District provides for additional
protection by requiring elevated design standards including open space, streetscape,
placemaking, gateway, shopping corridor, and sign requirements that result in higher quality
development that minimizes accommodations for auto-oriented uses. BSD-SRN does not permit
fuel/service stations, sexually-oriented businesses, skilled nursing/rehabilitation/nursing homes,
and vehicle sales/rental/repair; but permits/conditionally permits townhomes, live-work
dwellings, hospital, park & ride, transit stop, conference center, home occupation, helistops,
and renewable energy – wind.

Building Types
The rezoning to the Scioto River Neighborhood District permits different building types to match
the desired neighborhood development pattern. The Neighborhood District removes the
commercial center Building Type and adds the single-family attached, apartment building, loft
building, corridor building, and podium apartment Building Types. The maximum building height
permitted in BSD-SRN is up to 6-stories with PZC approval. Within BSD-SRN, parking is always
required to be located to the rear or within the building, which provides a buffer from adjacent
land uses/existing development. A general Building Type comparison is provided below:

Notes, Continued:
3 Basement level structured
parking is permitted to extend
between buildings, screened
from the street and covering a
maximum of 10% of the length
of the RBZ. Structured parking
visible between principal
buildings must be set back a
minimum of 15 ft. from the
street facing façades.
4 The minimum finished
floor elevation applies to the
residential units, common areas,
and other occupied spaces and
is not intended to apply to the
parking structure. Where the
principal building entrance is a
lobby or other common space,
the minimum finished floor
elevation is not required.
5 In lieu of transparency
requirements, the ground story
or exposed basement facade
shall incorporate architectural
elements equal to the degree
of detailing used on the stories
above the parking level. Blank
wall limitations may be met
using these architectural
enhancements, as determined
by the required reviewing body.
6 The required reviewing body
may reduce the number of
entrances along street facades
as functionally appropriate to
the apartment building with
parking fully or partially below
grade, provided the building
has an adequate number and
frequency of entrances to be
convenient for residents and
visitors and the entrances are
conducive to establishing a safe
and attractive pedestrian realm.
7 Masonry, as described in
§153.062(E)(1), shall be used
as the primary building material
for ground story or exposed
basement facades.
8 The incorporation of active,
occupied spaces along street
facades is strongly encouraged
wherever practicable. Common
spaces including but not limited
to a clubhouse, fitness facility,
or administration/rental/sales
office, should be designed so
that those buildings or uses
have ground story street
frontage.

BRIDGE STREET DISTRICT
DEVELOPMENT CODE 63
EFFECTIVE DATE
MAY 26, 202162§ 153.063NEIGHBORHOOD STANDARDS
§ 153.063 NEIGHBORHOOD
STANDARDS
(A) INTENT
Certain Bridge Street District zoning districts require
special attention to locations and character of buildings,
streets, and open spaces to accommodate larger scale,
coordinated development and redevelopment to permit a
wide variety of uses. The intent of §153.063 is to establish
requirements for the creation of signature places in the city
consistent with the Community Plan (Bridge Street District
Area Plan)by incorporating long-term phasing plans,
transitional development conditions, and adaptability to
future market needs. The neighborhood standards guide the
development of streets, open spaces, buildings, and other
placemaking elements over time. They are not intended
to designate the precise locations for approved street
types, use areas, open spaces or other required elements
of this Code; actual locations and specific development
requirements will be determined through the Concept Plan,
Preliminary Development Plan, and Final Development
Plan reviews as required in §153.066 for individual
neighborhoods. However, where conflicts with other
sections of the zoning regulations applicable to the Bridge
Street District exist, the provisions of §153.063 shall apply.
(1) The BSD Sawmill Center Neighborhood and BSD
Indian Run Neighborhood districts anchor the Bridge
Street District through the creation of mixed use
neighborhoods with signature development characters.
Each neighborhood is intended to be anchored by a
critical mass of commercial uses located in highly
walkable shopping corridors with streets, blocks,
buildings and open spaces designed to encourage
park-once visits, window shopping, impromptu public
gatherings and sidewalk activity.
(2) The BSD Historic Transition Neighborhood District
serves as a bridge between the existing historic
scale of the HD Historic Core District and the more
contemporary, larger scale of the BSD Indian Run
Neighborhood District.
(3) The standards of the BSD Scioto River Neighborhood
are intended to create an active, walkable destination
through integration of a vibrant mix of uses.
Development in this district is oriented toward the
Scioto River and the public spaces along the riverfront,
and includes important vehicular and bicycle links to
adjacent neighborhoods and open spaces.
(B) BSD SAWMILL CENTER NEIGHBORHOOD
DISTRICT
(1) Development Intent
The Sawmill Center Neighborhood offers a unique
opportunity to provide a vibrant, active mixed use
environment with a wide variety of shopping, service
and entertainment activities. This neighborhood will
have a strong pedestrian friendly streetscape and a
well-defined network of streets connecting to the
major roadways of Sawmill Road and West Dublin-
Granville Road. Supporting residential and office uses
may be incorporated in a variety of ways, including
upper floors in vertical mixed use areas and in stand-
alone buildings. Additionally, the neighborhood will
have connections to greenways planned for the Bridge
Street District to connect to other development areas to
the west.
(2) Refer to §153.058 for the BSD Sawmill Center
Neighborhood District intent and the Zoning Map
for the actual limits of the BSD Sawmill Center
Neighborhood District. Refer to Figure 153.063-A for
an illustration of a conceptual development pattern
desired for this district. Actual locations of elements
depicted on the graphic will be determined through
the Concept Plan, Preliminary Development Plan, and
Final Development Plan review processes.
(3) Block, Access, and Street Layout
(a) Block Length
Refer to Table 153.060-A, Maximum Block
Dimensions.
(b) Access
Refer to §§153.060 and 153.061 for existing
and planned principal frontage streets within the
BSD Sawmill Center Neighborhood District and
general block access configurations.
(c) Mid-Block Pedestrianways
Blocks consisting entirely of residential uses
that are located in predominantly residential
development areas may be exempted from
the mid-block pedestrianway requirements of
§153.060(C)(6), subject to approval by the
required reviewing body, except where a block
has frontage on a principal frontage street.
(d) Street Types
Refer to §153.061 for existing and potential
streets and street family designations within the
BSD Sawmill Center Neighborhood District.
(4) Building Types. Refer to §153.062.
(a) Permitted Building Types
Refer to §153.062(B)(3)(a) for permitted building
types in the BSD Sawmill Center Neighborhood
District.
EFFECTIVE DATE
MAY 26, 202170§ 153.063 (E)NEIGHBORHOOD STANDARDS - BSD INDIAN RUN NEIGHBORHOOD
Refer to §153.064(G) for permitted open space
types in the BSD Indian Run Neighborhood
District.
(d) Open Space Network
1. Open spaces within the BSD Indian Run
Neighborhood District shall be organized as a
series of interconnected nodes and corridors
appropriate to the scale and character of
surrounding streets, buildings and land uses.
The purpose of this requirement is to create
highly accessible public gathering spaces and
activity areas along a continuous open space
network weaving through and around the
edges of this urban neighborhood.
2. The open space network shall be provided,
at a minimum, in the approximate locations
shown in Figure 153.063-C. Open space
designs shall be approved by the required
reviewing body, but locations and types
shall be identified with the Preliminary and
Final Development Plan and shall meet the
following criteria:
A. Open space corridors and nodes shall be
coordinated with the street network and
with gateways where applicable.
B. Greenways are required along and on
both sides of all branches of the Indian
Run and shall be designed to facilitate
pedestrian and bicycle travel. Greenways
shall be designed with publicly accessible
street frontage for a minimum of one
third of the greenway length along all
branches of the Indian Run within the
Indian Run district.
C. Required greenways shall connect to
existing or planned greenways within the
vicinity, providing pedestrian and bicycle
access to Historic Dublin, the Scioto
River, other destinations throughout the
Bridge Street District, and to the city’s
larger open space system.
D. Where buildings front directly onto
greenways, semi-pervious outdoor dining
areas are permitted within 20 feet of
the principal structure adjacent to the
greenway.
E. Other required open space corridors
may be created by using approved street
types, provided that open space nodes are
located along the street with no greater
than three full blocks between each open
space node and pedestrian and bicycle
movement between the open spaces is
emphasized in the street design.
F. Open space nodes shall be provided at
prominent street intersections, such as
those serving as entrances to a designated
shopping corridor and other gateway
locations, with other appropriately scaled
open space types integrated along the
corridor as appropriate to the character of
the street.
G. Where a conference center use is
provided, an adjacent plaza or square
shall be required to serve as an open
space node.

appropriate. My biggest issue with this are the two little office buildings. They have the wrong
architecture entirely. Once the Mt. Carmel site is developed, they will be out of place.”
Commission Discussion continued:
Mr. Supelak stated that he concurs with fellow Commissioners’ comments. The applicant now has a
very good plan. The proposed campus feels generous and rich. The mass has been sensitively broken
up. He recognizes that has been difficult with all of the mature trees on the site, and applauds their
efforts to weave the buildings and landscaping into the site. Initially, he would have anticipated more
building heights along Sawmill Road, but the applicant has explained the efforts made to achieve the
right balance between the building heights and the surface parking. He recognizes that they have done
that. His only concern is the architecture, but additional work will occur on that component to ensure it
works with everything, particularly the gateway architecture. He would caution them to remind mindful
of the site circulation and the potential redevelopment of the corner parcel.
Ms. Call stated that this has been an iterative process, and the contributions of all who have participated
have benefited the project. The Bright Road connection is obviously a concern, more so for the City
than the applicant. That issue is being studied and the Commission is sensitive to that. She requested
that staff reach out to Mr. Gleditsch. We are always looking for opportunities for community members
to become involved and to improve our Code. If we can consider native species of trees and shrubs
that would be more fitting for the area, in addition to providing more variety and beautification, not
only this application, but other applications could benefit.
The applicant indicated that they have communicated with Mr. Gleditsch regarding his suggestions.
Ms. Call stated that she also is supportive of the revised Concept Plan. The focus on the view corridors,
the articulation of the building fronts along those corridors, underground major parking and minor
parking areas adjacent to the building are appreciated. It has helped in visualizing the development.
The Commission must look at the whole area, not just the pocket of development; therefore, they would
encourage the applicant to be mindful of the corner parcel in advancing the proposed development.
The Commission anticipates the future discussion on the project and looks forward to welcoming this
type of use to the community.
NEW CASE
3. Shoppes at River Ridge at PIDs: 273-008269, 273-012910 & 273-012909, 21-
189Z, Rezoning
Ms. Call stated that this is a request to rezone three parcels from Bridge Street District, Commercial to
Bridge Street District, Scioto River Neighborhood. The 14.02-acre site is located southeast of the
roundabout of Riverside Drive and W. Dublin-Granville Road.
Staff Presentation
Ms. Martin stated that this is a request for a recommendation to City Council for a standard district
rezoning. The site is located within the Bridge Street District. It is presently developed with a single-
story shopping center with two undeveloped parcels located southeast of the roundabout of Riverside
Drive and West Dublin-Granville Road. The applicant is requesting to rezone those parcels, which were
zoned Bridge Street Corridor Commercial in 2012. In 2014, the developer worked with the City on the
rezoning of a significant portion of that area to what is now Bridge Street District (BSD) Scioto River
Neighborhood. That district was customized to facilitate high quality, mixed-use development. This
proposal is a request to rezone two parcels and zone a remnant right-of-way parcel to BSD Scioto River
Neighborhood District to be consistent with the zoning to the north. This request aligns with the
Planning and Zoning Commission
Meeting Minutes January 20, 2022
Page 13 of 14
Community Plan. The entirety of the Bridge Street District Future Land Use is recommended as Mixed-
Use Urban Core. [Proposed zoning map was displayed.]
Staff recommends that the Commission make a recommendation of approval to City Council.
Applicant Presentation
Don Brogan, Crawford Hoying, 6640 Riverside Drive - Suite 500, Dublin, OH 43017 stated that the
purpose of their request is to ensure that the zoning of this property aligns with that of Bridge Park.
The future programming of this property will be similar to that in Bridge Park. The anticipated quality
of that development would give investors confidence in investing in future projects. He noted that the
City’s updated Stormwater Code no longer requires the detention pond that is presently located below
the Wendy’s site, making that site available for new development.
Russ Hunter, 6640 Riverside Drive - Suite 500, Dublin, OH 43017 stated that he has no additional
comments, but is available for questions.
Commission Questions
Mr. Supelak requested clarification of the anticipated adjacencies and how the opportunity for additional
building heights with the rezoning would impact those adjacencies.
Ms. Martin responded that the most beneficial component of the rezoning to BSD Scioto River
Neighborhood is that the uses will be further restricted, and the height, quality and character of future
development will be elevated. The intent of the existing BSD Commercial zoning was to preserve existing
property owners’ property rights. Many of the properties along W. Dublin Granville Road were zoned
Community Commercial District, which the Wendy’s Drive-Thru continues to retain. The Community
Commercial zoning permits a gamut of uses, which BSD Commercial zoning preserved in a more limited
manner. Those uses include auto vehicle sales, gas stations as a Conditional Use and car washes.
Because this site is already part of the BSD, it currently is eligible to be redeveloped with BSD building
types.
Mr. Fishman inquired if the request is to rezone the entire shopping center.
Ms. Martin responded affirmatively.
Mr. Fishman inquired if the rezoning would permit the same type of buildings as exist in Bridge Park.
Ms. Martin responded that is correct, as well as permit more compatible uses.
Mr. Fishman inquired if the rezoning would change the type of the buildings to potentially three-story
buildings, similar to those in Bridge Park.
Ms. Martin responded that at this point, no development is proposed; the existing shopping center will
be retained. The requested change to the zoning district would ensure higher quality development,
should there be sufficient development pressure in the future to warrant development in this area. It
would be advantageous to both the City and the property owner to have a more robust zoning district.
The current Bridge District Commercial zoning is the least restrictive and creative, which would permit
structures of lesser quality than those that have been developed to the north; the rezoning would
encourage higher quality development.
Mr. Supelak stated that the existing zoning and the requested zoning would permit the same building
heights. The rezoning would permit the current development on the site to remain, but any future
redevelopment of the site would eliminate some of the existing uses and require higher quality
standards.

2. Overview
Background
This request is to rezone 13.8 acres, PIDs: 273-008269 & 273-012909, to BSD-SRN, Bridge
Street District – Scioto River Neighborhood, in order to align with the Community Plan. The
Community Plan identifies the parcel as “Mixed Use Urban Core”.

South: CC, Community Commercial
West: BSD-P, Bridge Street District – Public

Road, Pedestrian and Bike Network
The parcel has approximately 615 feet of frontage along Riverside Drive, approximately
200 feet of frontage along W. Dublin-Granville Road, and 700 feet of frontage on Sharp
Lane. Access is provided via a dead-end on Dale Drive and two access points on Sharp
Lane.
Process
Zoning Code Section 153.232(B)(2) charges the Planning and Zoning Commission with
making recommendations to City Council on amendments to the Zoning Map, which is the
purpose of a rezoning. The proposed amendment will be forwarded to City Council for
their consideration as an Ordinance.
3. Proposal
Rezoning these parcels to BSD-SRN,
Bridge Street District – Scioto River
Neighborhood, will better align with the
adopted Community Plan. The intent of
the BSD Scioto River Neighborhood
District is to provide a significant
opportunity for a well-planned and
designed neighborhood with a balanced
mix of land uses including residential,
office, retail, and restaurant. Further the
proposed zoning district is consistent
with the existing uses within the
Shoppes at River Ridge.
Community Plan
The Community Plan is a key policy document adopted by City Council to guide decision-
making for the future of Dublin’s natural and built environments. The Community Plan
includes Future Land Use (FLU) recommendations, which should be considered when a
City of Dublin Planning and Zoning Commission
Case 21-189Z | The Shoppes at River Ridge
Thursday, January 20, 2022 | Page 4 of 5
rezoning is presented. The site has one FLU recommendation, Mixed Use Urban Core, and
the BSD-SCN District aligns with this recommended development character.
The Community Plan also includes the Thoroughfare Plan and Special Area Plans. The
Thoroughfare Plan identifies functional street classifications, future roadway connections,
and planned right-of-way widths. Riverside Drive and W. Dublin-Granville Road are both
designated as Corridor Connectors, while Dale Drive is designated as a District Connector.
The recommended right of-way width is 120 feet for Riverside Drive, 112 feet for W.
Dublin-Granville, and 60-80 feet for Dale Drive; no additional right of-way is being sought
with this Rezoning request and rather if necessary would be considered as part of future
development.
This site is included within the Bridge Street District Special Area Plan, which is intended to
drive transformational change within the Bridge Street District rooted in five goals: 1)
enhance economic vitality, 2) integrate new center into community life, 3) embracing nature
and celebrating sustainability, 4) expanding housing, recreation, transportation, and office
choices, 5) creating community places. The proposed rezoning furthers these objective by
reducing the land area within the District that is zoning BSD – Commercial. BSD – Scioto
River Neighborhood is subject to elevated design standard and further restricts auto-
oriented commercial uses as compared to BSD – Commercial.
3. Criteria Analysis

Meeting 'I Held 20 ___ _
Mr. Reiner suggested that the option on the table is to approve the 20 percent limitation tonight; the Commission will review this and the architects will review this as well. This addresses the issue of the lap siding appearance, which no one supports. It also allows the applicant to seek a waiver for a project with architectural significance.
Mr. Gerber stated he can support this, but emphasized that it is important to have the Code review completed to expedite the process as intended.
Mayor Keenan invited public testimony.
Wallace Maurer. 7451 Dublin Road noted that the memo, on page 2, under "Other Modifications," mentions "group homes." To what does that refer? Ms. Ray responded that is in reference to the adult family homes that were the subject of Ordinance 22-14 heard tonight. Staff had previously classified these as "group homes," pending this legislation. At this point, group homes will be eliminated from the use table in order to address it more comprehensively. Mr. Maurer asked if this would constitute discrimination. Ms. Readier responded that the reason that group homes are eliminated in this
legislation is because they are comprehensively addressed throughout the Code as part of Ordinance 22-14(Amended). They are not singled out in this one area of the Dublin Code. Mr. Maurer noted that, based upon his review, the legislation is massive and the question is whether the organization is in place to oversee its implementation. His closing comment regarding the legislation is "Get Real."

Vice Mayor Gerber introduced Ordinances 76-14 and 77-14.
Background
Ms. Ray shared a graphic of the Vision Plan, which was included in the 2010 Bridge
Street Corridor Vision Report. Soon after the Vision Report moved forward, staff
looked at the general land use recommendations for the various portions of the Bridge
Street District, including building heights and densities. From there, that informed the
creation of the Bridge Street District Zoning Districts. The new Zoning District
designations were applied parcel by parcel throughout the District.
There were a few areas in the BSD that had important transformational opportunities
in particular. For these areas, neighborhood zoning district designations were created.
The two areas outlined in red -on the east and west sides of the District -received
the special zoning designation because they were under consolidated land ownership
at the time of the original rezoning in 2012. In addition, they have the most potential
for the special anchor developments that are expected to come forward.
Following the initial rezonings to the Bridge Street districts in early 2012, the City
acquired several strategic properties located along the river corridor that are needed
for public infrastructure improvements. The attention on this area advanced further in
late 2012 when Council directed staff to focus BSD planning efforts on mainly the
Scioto River Corridor.
Around the same time, a development entity -Crawford Hoying Development Partners
-began assembling much of the land within the Scioto River Corridor. As planning
progressed in this area, it was noted that unlike the property ownership at the time of
the original BSD area rezoning, ownership circumstances would now permit the
creation of a more unified zoning plan to create that more intensely developed,
coordinated mixed-use environment envisioned by the BSD zoning regulations,
designed to be implemented through that same process.
This approach would have been recommended back in 2012, had the ownership
pattern been different at that time.
Creating the new Bridge Street District of "Scioto River Neighborhood District" allows
the Bridge Street zoning regulations to better fit the intent of that larger, unified
