The City of Columbus is seeking public feedback on Zone In Phase II, the next step in modernizing our 70-year-old zoning code.

The draft covers more than 70,000 parcels, about 41% of the city. It focuses on additional mixed-use corridors, industrial and warehouse districts, and major business and institutional campuses. It would also open the door for more housing, increasing the capacity for new homes to 119,000 over the next 10 years, up from 13,000. The proposal will create clearer zoning rules and support jobs and investment, too.

Comments are open through Oct. 24. Review the draft and take the online survey, or visit the Zone In Public Gallery at 141 N. Front St. to see maps and talk with the team. Click on the link in the comments to learn more. Columbus Department of Development
