Establish library impact fee for new development projects
In Plain English
New housing and commercial developments would pay a one-time fee to help fund library expansion, books, and equipment. The city identified a need for additional library capacity as Richmond grows. If approved, developers pay this fee when they get building permits to offset the impact their projects have on library services.
