The Center City DORA (Designated Outdoor Refreshment Area) in
Franklinton Arts District
What is a DORA?
In the State of Ohio, a Designated Outdoor Refreshment Area, or DORA, is a specified area of land that a local legislative authority (city council or township trustees) has designated as exempt from certain open container provisions as laid out in Ohio Revised Code Section 4301.82. A DORA allows visitors aged 21 and older to consume an alcoholic beverage purchased from a participating business outdoors within the area’s boundaries, during designated hours, and according to DORA rules.

In April, the City of Columbus introduced a proposal to modernize the zoning on Columbus corridors, updating a code that is over 70 years old and not current with the times.
They created the Zone In Gallery – an interactive space where you can learn all about it.
