Adopt voter-approved county urban limit line as city policy

Urban Limit LineZoningResolution

Resolution Resolution No. 117-08

In Plain English

Contra Costa County voters approved Measure L, which creates an urban limit line that restricts where new development can happen. Richmond must formally adopt this same boundary as city policy to comply with Measure J. This prevents sprawl by keeping new housing and businesses within existing urban areas.
