Northside: Colerain Connector redevelopment update

Thirty-two new single-family homes in Northside are closer to reality.

At its February 28 meeting, City Council passed unanimously a zoning change for property along Kirby Rd (see map).

Sector D (south of Robley) Ave would change from RM-2 to SF-2, and Sector E would change from SF-6 to SF-2.

The new SF-2 zoning would allow for single-family homes of medium-to-high density on lots, at the minimum, of 2,000 square feet (think townhomes).

NorthPointe Land Company is still the preferred developer for the market-rate homes. (I'm unaware of any extension granted in their preferred developer agreement, but there must have been one because it should have expired last September.)
