The City of Columbus approved the transfer of a 0.412-acre (17,950 SF) portion of right-of-way near Northtowne Boulevard to the Muslim American Society Columbus Chapter. This transfer, valued at $44,865.00, was granted at no cost to the organization after the Land Review Commission waived the fee. The purpose of the transfer is to allow the Muslim American Society Columbus Chapter to meet parking requirements for a planned community center/mosque on adjacent parcels (010-277812 and 010-277813). The right-of-way, previously part of Heatherton Drive, is located north of Morse Road and west of Northtowne Boulevard. A general utility easement will be retained by the City. The decision was declared an emergency due to Ohio's short construction season, aiming to expedite the development process by allowing lot combination, parcel number issuance, and construction agreements to be finalized promptly.
