Ben Keith π²Dorans on when neighborhoods will get a Trader Joe's: "First of all, shop union."
Talks about changing the system to allow more things in areas, without variances: grocery, day care. Next phase of Zone In will include commercial uses, says we don't need giant parking lots year-round for Black Friday sales. Building local commercial is a land-use question. #TransitColumbus #ZoneIn #Columbus

#Columbus has updated its #zoning code map to show the new zoning for the #ZoneIn Phase One corridors: https://gis.columbus.gov/zoning/
@mobileharv Were CURA or any other OSU departments involved in the #ZoneIn zoning code update? I'm talking with someone not affiliated with OSU who resolutely maintains that OSU was cut out of the zoning code update planning process. I find that extremely hard to believe.
Tonight's #ZoneIN hearing: "This hearing will focus on summarizing the public feedback that was given during the 60-day comment period. Any amendments to the proposed code and map will be the subject of a future public hearing to be announced at a later date."

Interesting note in last night's hearing: https://youtu.be/WyjJW629mz0?t=2567
The City is proposing to review parking impacts for _all_ new developments, not just ones with variances. This will be set up in a new legislative proposal, advanced in parallel with the zoning code. Mitigations include things like mobility programs or parking management fees, for developments with a large parking impact.
Zone In Columbus Public Hearing #2: Housing and Parking
Tomorrow at 5:30 p.m., Columbus City Council will hold their second hearing on the City's proposed zoning code update.
(There is one other hearing, but that's after the City makes revisions to the proposal in response to public comment.)
