This resolution approves a second amendment to expand the RiverSouth Authority District, adding developer-owned or controlled properties within downtown Columbus to the community district. This expansion aligns with the 2022 Downtown Columbus Strategic Plan, enabling continued redevelopment within the area bounded by major downtown streets. The Columbus City Council will hold a public hearing on November 22, 2024, to finalize the amendment. Notice will be published in compliance with Ohio Revised Code Chapter 349 requirements.
