East Franklinton Review Board

Due to the current tech issue facing the City of Columbus, Planning’s online application system for Certificates of Appropriateness is not functioning at this time. Staff is also unable to send or receive emails and our phone tree is not working. The City is working to resolve these issues and we hope to have our automated system running soon. All application deadlines for the upcoming for Historic Preservation and Design Review meetings will be extended.

If you have a time sensitive staff approvable item which you must have reviewed, then you will have to print off a copy of your proposal and include a copy of our paper Application. Please see our Staff Approval List for further information. All submissions must be complete or they will not be processed. Include all relevant drawings, photos, and product cut sheets and drop them off in the “Planning” basket at the security desk at:

The East Franklinton Creative Community District Plan was adopted by City Council on November 12, 2012. The plan established a vision for revitalization of the neighborhood as an urban mixed use neighborhood, and a new mixed use zoning district was established for the area in 2013 (East Franklinton District, C.C. 3323). The East Franklinton Review Board (EFRB) was established through the East Franklinton District and serves to review and approve site plans, architecture, graphics, and demolitions based on the standards of C.C. 3323 and other applicable code standards. EFRB members serve without compensation and are appointed by the Mayor with the approval of City Council.

Those looking to submit an application for review by the East Franklinton Review Board should refer to the Information for Applicants(PDF, 1MB) resource for details on the process. The blank application form is linked below.
