This ordinance accepts the annexation application (AN25-005) submitted by Anthony & Kimberly Properties LLC, bringing 1.117 acres of territory from Sharon Township into the City of Columbus. The annexed site is an infill annexation with a current residential use and anticipated future residential and parking use, with possible commercial development. The annexation was approved by the Franklin County Board of Commissioners on May 6, 2025, and the City Council received official notice on May 20, 2025. The Ohio Revised Code mandates a minimum 60-day period for City acceptance after county approval. The annexation is sought to continue the existing residential use and allow for the addition of a parking lot to support a business at 7811 Flint Road. Planning staff supported the annexation, noting its consistency with the Far North Area Plan (2014) recommendations for Very Low Density Residential. However, the annexation does not guarantee zoning approval; any new zoning requests will require a separate application process. Municipal services, including transportation, water, and sewers, will be available to the annexed area, with water and sewer connections being at the owner's expense.
