Explanation
Background:
During the second half of 2002 development pressures increased in the central portion of Columbus' Hayden Run Corridor - generally bounded by Hayden Run and Hayden Run Road on the south, the Franklin/Madison county line on the west, Dublin on the north, and I-270 on the east. The Planning Division was asked to develop a plan for the area to help ensure that the various land uses and infrastructure needs were anticipated and coordinated to the greatest extent possible. The Interim Hayden Run Corridor Plan is intended to provide land use and development policy direction for public and private decision-makers. Among the plan's key elements are protection of Hayden Run and other natural features, organization of residential uses, designation of income-producing uses, and identification of needed infrastructure and facilities.
While all plans are subject to periodic review and update, two primary factors have led to the designation of this document as an interim plan: A desire by the jurisdictions in northwest Franklin County to engage in a multi-jurisdictional planning process; and Mayor Michael B. Coleman's Vibrant 21st Century Cities initiative to look at growth policy from a broad perspective. As these and other factors warrant, the Hayden Run Corridor Plan will be updated.
Fiscal Impact:
No funding is required for this legislation.
