Columbus City Attorney, Richard C. Pfeiffer, Jr., has started a new program called
“The Zone Initiative.”
The program is designed to enhance communication between the City Attorney’s Office,
the Columbus Division of Police, Code Enforcement, the City Departments of Health
and Sanitation, neighborhood associations and other community organizations in order
to aid in uplifting Columbus neighborhoods. A secondary goal of the project is to
increase municipal court prosecutors’ and municipal court judges’ awareness of the
effects of crimes on the quality of life in Columbus neighborhoods.
Designed around the Columbus Division of Police’s division of the city into five
zones, City Attorney Pfeiffer has assigned an Assistant City Attorney to each of
the five city zones.

The zone assignments are as follows:
Zone 1 ( Precincts 2, 7, 18 )

The role/responsibilities of the Assistant City Attorney assigned to each zone include
becoming familiar with the zone area itself, specifically the primary quality of
life issues affecting the neighborhoods within their respective zones and assisting
in addressing those issues through criminal and civil litigation. However, the program
is still in its developmental stage; the listed responsibilities are not exclusive
and will continue to evolve as the program progresses. Please be aware that the
five zone Assistant City Attorneys ARE NOT CITY PROSECUTORS.
The City Prosecutor’s Office encourages you to contact the prosecutor assigned to
any particular case that you may have specific concerns about.
