Explanation

BACKGROUD:

In 2016 and 2017, the City of Columbus commissioned and received a study from HR& A on the effectiveness of its economic development incentives, including real property tax abatements in community reinvestment areas.  Based on the study, the City developed a revised incentive policy to encourage development of affordable housing through targeted incentives throughout the City.  City Council passed legislation that amended Title 45 in the Housing Code, and subsequently amended each individual Post-1994 CRA to reflect the new incentive policy in July of 2018.  Throughout the implementation process and with additional review, there is a need to amend ordinances 2184-2018, 2185-2018, 2192-2018, and 2196-2018 to make minor administrative corrections.
