What happened

The council approved hiring an engineering firm to evaluate the Riggers Loft building for a new port security center. The vote passed 5-2, with Bates and Boozé voting no. Engineers will inspect the building's structure and foundation to confirm it can safely house the Port Security and Operations Center.

The council approved the Richmond General Plan 2030 as part of the consent calendar, which included environmental review and policy changes for $34,000.

Discussion of amendments to city campaign finance disclosure laws to comply with state requirements was continued to a future meeting.
