Create committee to guide Black Resiliency Fund spending and priorities
In Plain English
The city established a $1.5 million Black Resiliency Fund in June 2025 to address inequities affecting Richmond's Black residents. Mayor Martinez and Councilmember Robinson will form a temporary committee to guide how staff spends this money. The committee dissolves once clear spending guidelines are adopted, by April 2026 at the latest.
