Explanation
AN15-010
BACKGROUND: This ordinance approves the acceptance of certain territory (AN15-010) by the city of Columbus. The Ohio Revised Code stipulates that to be effective, City acceptance must take place a minimum of 60 days (but not more than 180) from the receipt by the City Clerk of the approval notice from the county. Should City Council not take such action within this timeframe, the annexation will not take place. This petition was filed with Franklin County on July 16, 2015. City Council approved a service ordinance addressing the site on July 27, 2015. Franklin County approved the annexation on August 18, 2015 and the City Clerk received notice on September 9, 2015. This site is one of three Columbus Regional Airport Authority (CRAA) properties at Rickenbacker for which annexation is being pursued as outlined in an agreement between the City of Columbus and CRAA. Columbus City Codes section 3310.09 stipulates that, upon annexation, territory covered by the agreement be assigned the zoning classification most comparable to the zoning classification applicable to such property immediately prior to annexation. This site as well as the other two Port Authority sites (AN15-008, AN15-009) for which annexation is pending, is zoned General Industrial within Franklin County. The sites will be given the zoning classification of M, Manufacturing upon annexation.
FISCAL IMPACT: Provision of municipal services does represent cost to the City; however, the annexation of land also has the potential to create revenue to the City.
