Request for Proposals - Zoning Ordinance Update

Request for Proposals: Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map Update

The City of Worthington is seeking proposals from qualified consulting firms for professional services to update the City’s zoning ordinance and zoning map. The project includes a complete review of the current zoning requirements, the City’s zoning map, sign regulations, subdivisions, and other related sections of the current City Code of Ordinances (City Code Chapters 99, 151, 153, 154, and 155). The City seeks to align the new ordinance with the recently adopted 2045 Comprehensive Plan, create an ordinance that is more development friendly, easy to navigate, and addresses the many shortfalls of the current code of ordinances. The City’s current zoning ordinance contains much of the same language from 1969 or earlier, underwent some significant changes in the early 2000s, and has only received minor line-by-line changes since that time.

Responses are due no later than 4:30 p.m. on Friday, June 20.
