Weather has played some havoc on scheduling, but City planners have rescheduled their “Code Refresh” meetings.

Engage with planning staff and members of the Code Refresh consultant team to learn more about the draft pattern book, potential zoning districts, and the progress of the zoning code update. Provide your input, ask questions, and learn how these changes will impact our community.

This has only added more controversy to the already controversial ‘Richmond 300’.
