§ 156.32 I-265 CORRIDOR OVERLAY DISTRICT (I-265 COD).

(A) Intention of district. The intent of the I-265 Corridor Overlay District is to promote aesthetics and compatible uses surrounding the future I-265 Corridor. In anticipation of the future I-265 extension leading to a new East End Bridge, this area is prime for development. The purpose of this district is to maximize the area’s potential and ensure that future development is compatible with existing uses.

(1) The I-265 Corridor Overlay District adds development standards and guidelines to the existing underlying zoning district. All properties within the District are subject to the underlying zoning district in which they are located, unless other requirements are specifically established by the I-265 Corridor Overlay District. In this case, the I-265 COD requirements shall take precedence.

(2) The I-265 Corridor Overlay District surrounds the future I-265 extension. The new portion of I-265 will run from the existing I-265 and SR 62 interchange to the new Ohio River Bridge that will be located to the northeast of Utica. The I-265 Corridor Overlay District is essentially bounded by the River Ridge Commerce Center to the north, the Ohio River to the east, the Utica and Jeffersonville boundaries to the south, and S.R. 62 to the west. Refer to the I-265 Corridor Overlay District Map (Figure 1) for the actual boundaries of the district. If the district boundary runs through a property, then any property that is 50 percent or more within the district must follow the regulations of the I-265 Corridor Overlay District. Because the district first takes effect after adoption of this chapter, all uses and structures in this district existing prior to the adoption of this chapter, which would not conform to these regulations, may continue as such until the property changes its use. This district only applies to properties in unincorporated county. If the City of Jeffersonville or Utica were to annex properties located within this district, these regulations would no longer be applicable for such properties.

(B) Location. The I-265 Corridor Overlay District is essentially bounded by the River Ridge Commerce Center to the north, the Ohio River to the east, the Utica and Jeffersonville boundaries to the south, and SR 62 to the west. Refer to the I-265 Corridor Overlay District Map (Figure 1) for the actual boundaries of the district.

(C) Permitted uses. Permitted uses within the I-265 Corridor Overlay District are subject to the requirements of the underlying zoning district for the individual property. Exceptions are the I-265 COD prohibited uses listed below.

(D) Prohibited uses. The following uses shall not be permitted within the I-265 Corridor Overlay District:

(G) Setback lines. Minimum setback lines for structures within the I-265 Corridor Overlay District are subject to the requirements of the underlying zoning district for the individual property.
