Create new law governing pipeline company permits to use city property
In Plain English
Richmond currently lacks specific rules for pipeline companies that want to run pipes under city streets or through city property. The new law establishes a formal permit system with requirements and fees. Pipeline companies must now apply for franchise agreements before installing or maintaining infrastructure on city land.
