Council approves Arena District land sale
Monday, October 20, 2008
BY ROBERT VITALEColumbus City Council members gave their blessing tonight to a plan that will develop one of the final corners of the Arena District. But their approval came with a few conditions.
To get nearly 2.5 acres of city-owned land at the district’s northern edge, developers must agree to four council demands, including opening up a planned parking garage to anyone who needs a space.
The garage would be built with money from a tax-increment-financing district in the neighborhood, but developers told city officials last week that they planned to restrict parking to customers and employees of a new grocery store.
