Developer presentation outlines mixed-use concept for CP-25-1, including Warner Road realignment and floodplain pathway

Plain City Council · April 29, 2025

Summary

A planning consultant presented a CP-25-1 concept showing mixed-use retail and multifamily fronting US-161, relocation of Warner Road to activate the site, floodplain-sensitive pathway proposals, and coordination with a broader US-161 corridor study; council raised questions on intersection spacing and connectivity to Sugar Run.

Planning consultant Hutchinson presented the CP-25-1 concept plan, describing a mixed-use development with retail and multifamily fronting US-161 and a proposed realignment of Warner Road through the center of the site to create a destination rather than a drive-by parcel.

"What you see before he tonight is again really that where we have, you know, kind of a mixed use development where we want to relocate Warner Road to the center of the site, which... really starts bringing users into the site instead of just going by the site," Hutchinson said, adding that parking would be placed behind storefronts and that the northern third of the property includes significant floodplain and detention planning with a possible regional pathway easement.

Council members asked about intersection spacing, potential curb-cut locations onto US-161, and whether Sugar Run could be connected through the site. Hutchinson said the team is coordinating with the larger US-161 study led by a regional partner and that some parcel boundaries and intersection spacing requirements may push the proposed alignment farther north or south, but the team will continue refining plans as annexation and development stages proceed.

No formal action on CP-25-1 was taken at the meeting; council later voted to accept related annexation and rezoning ordinances on the consent/vote portion of the agenda.
