Why This Vote Matters
The council unanimously voted to extend their meeting to hear a presentation about future sewer rates in Richmond.

The presentation will outline how much these infrastructure projects will cost and how sewer rates may need to increase to fund the improvements. This was a procedural vote to ensure the council could complete this important agenda item rather than postpone it to a future meeting.
