Explanation
AN19-013
BACKGROUND:
This ordinance approves the acceptance of certain territory (AN19-013) by the city of Columbus. The Ohio Revised Code stipulates that to be effective, City acceptance must take place a minimum of 60 days from the receipt by the City Clerk of the approval notice from the county. 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 November 26, 2019. Franklin County approved the annexation on January 7, 2020 and the City Clerk received notice on February 3, 2020.
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.
