Explanation
AN15-018
BACKGROUND: This ordinance approves the acceptance of certain territory (AN15-018) by the City of Columbus. The Ohio Revised Code stipulates that, for this annexation to be effective, City acceptance must take place a minimum of 60 days after the Clerk receives notice of County approval. Should action not be taken by the City within 120 days of the first consideration of an acceptance ordinance, the annexation will not take place. This petition was filed with Franklin County on January 7, 2016. The Board of Commissioners approved the annexation on February 16, 2016 and the City Clerk received notice on March 7, 2016.
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.
