Richmond to pursue zoning changes tied to City Center plan
The Richmond Planning Commission meets Monday at 1:30 p.m. Business on the agenda includes a resolution declaring the city’s intent to amend its zoning map to reflect the recently adopted City Center Innovation District Small Area Plan.
The amendment to the Richmond 300 master plan is aimed at guiding growth over a roughly 20-block area anchored by the to-be-demolished Richmond Coliseum. The area-wide rezoning also sets the stage for the city to solicit for the sale and redevelopment of city-owned properties, which make up the bulk of the 26-acre area.
