Adopt Richmond General Plan 2030 to guide city development through 2030

Environmental JusticeZoning

In Plain English

The General Plan sets rules for where housing, businesses, and parks can be built over the next 20 years. Richmond's current plan is outdated and doesn't reflect recent changes in the city. If approved, the new plan guides all future construction and zoning decisions until 2030.
