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 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. Include all relevant drawings, photos, and product cut sheets. All submissions must be complete or they will not be processed. Drop these materials off in the “Planning” basket at the security desk at:
