City Council Meeting Highlights

Harper’s Pointe Subdivision approved by Council

Powell City Council unanimously approved the final development plan for Harper’s Pointe, a single family condominium gated community. The plan also was unanimously approved by the Planning & Zoning Commission on March 11, 2015.

Arlington Homes plans to construct 47 single family condominium homes on 8.75 acres off of Beech Ridge Drive. This site was home to the Powder Room Gun Shop & Target Range until last summer. As part of the development, a road will be built between Beech Ridge Drive and Grace Drive, providing additional connectivity for the community. This road will result in a new traffic light at the intersection of Grace Drive and Olentangy Street.

A construction schedule for the development has not been determined at this time.
