Metro Center Revitalization

The Metro Center Revitalization Plan, adopted in December 2024, established a vision to reimagine Metro Center as a walkable, mixed-use, sustainable district with parks, public spaces and amenities that respond to the evolving needs of today’s business community and support Dublin’s vision as a 21st-century Global City of Choice. To help guide the implementation of this vision, the City is developing design guidelines and zoning standards for Metro Center and preparing to rezone the approximately 210-acre Metro Center district.


Sept. 17 - Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting

The Commission will discuss draft design guidelines and a zoning roadmap related to a future areawide rezoning application for properties within the 210-acre Metro Center district. This meeting is intended to introduce the draft materials to the Commission and receive early feedback. No recommendation or determination will be made at this meeting. This is also the only item on the agenda; there are no cases scheduled for consideration. Public comment may be submitted through the City’s website or in person at the end of the meeting. The meeting will also be streamed and recorded for those who wish to watch online. We are planning additional meetings with the Planning and Zoning Commission later this fall for further review and a recommendation from the Commission. Those meetings will also be advertised and provide additional opportunities for residents to provide public comment.
