The nearly $18 million project will be funded with $3 million from NOVA, $13 million from Regency owners Thalhimer Realty Partners and Rebkee Co., and $1.75 million in grant money from the county economic development authority, which will vote on the funding in May.

Richmond
The planning commission meets Monday at 1:30 p.m. A special use permit is sought for 1809 and 1815 E. Franklin St. to remove a street-oriented commercial requirement and allow for redeveloping the buildings with up to 13 dwelling units. Other business includes a proposed rezoning of properties in the VUU/Chamberlayne Neighborhood Plan area and a presentation of draft regulations for short-term rentals in the city. Full agenda here.

The board of zoning appeals meets Wednesday at 1 p.m. Business on the agenda includes a request from Lee Medical Building LLC for a special exception to the zoning ordinance for a building permit to convert the six-story office building at 1805 Monument Ave. into apartments totaling 63 units. Full agenda here.

The city’s Joint Construction Team, formed to manage the process of building new schools after the passage of the meals tax last year, released a statement updating cost estimates for construction of three new schools. George Mason Elementary, estimated in late 2017 at $25 million, is now estimated to cost $36 million. E.S.H. Greene Elementary is up from $35 million to $42 million. And a new middle school planned on Hull Street is increased from $50 million to $62 million. The team found that the initial estimates under-represented the true cost of construction and did not take into account other factors, such as increased construction costs since 2017 and a size expansion of Greene Elementary. Richmond Public Schools broke ground on the three schools in December.
