The City of Columbus has approved the final plat for Lansdowne Farms Section 1 Part 1, submitted by D.R. Horton-Indiana, LLC. The plat includes the subdivision of lots numbered 1-16, 69-77, and 119-130, along with designated reserve areas A, B, and C. This decision allows for the formal recording of the plat, enabling the county to issue parcel numbers and initiate development activities, including road construction and home building. Due to Ohio's short construction season, this approval was expedited under emergency action to ensure timely infrastructure development and minimize delays. The approval also facilitates the finalization of the inspection and construction agreement with the City of Columbus.
This decision is crucial as it paves the way for new residential development in Columbus, contributing to housing availability and urban expansion. The emergency approval ensures that construction can proceed promptly, avoiding potential delays due to seasonal constraints.
