Rezoning Application Z04-012
APPLICANT: Dominion Homes; c/o Jeff Brown, Atty., 37 West Broad Street; Columbus, Ohio 43215.
PROPOSED USE: Single-family residential development.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (6-0) on
May 6, 2004.

North High Street has consistently developed with commercial uses along its frontage and residential uses to the rear.
