Explanation
BACKGROUND:
This ordinance approves the acceptance of certain territory (AN17-001) by the city of Columbus.

If City Council does not accept the ordinance within 120 days of its first consideration, the annexation will be considered rejected. This petition was filed with Franklin County on February 14, 2017. City Council approved a service ordinance addressing the site on February 27, 2017. Franklin County approved the annexation on March 21, 2017 and the City Clerk received notice on April 13, 2017.
