The Richmond City Board of Works and Safety approved a street closure request for the 304 hundred block of North Eighth Street to allow a homecoming event organized by the Bridal T Museum.
Aaron Stevens, administrative resource officer with the Richmond Police Department, presented the request and said the event is scheduled "on Saturday, 08/08/2026." Stevens described the closure window as beginning at "11PM on Friday, August 7, and concluding at 9PM on Saturday, August 8." Stevens said the request came from the Police Department for approval of the closure to support the event.
A Committee member moved to approve the closure and the Chair seconded. The motion carried by voice vote.
The approved closure authorizes city staff and public-safety partners to implement the temporary traffic control plan for the stated dates; the board did not record additional conditions in the transcript. The request was presented as a standard event permit and will be executed under whatever public-safety and permitting procedures the city uses for street closures.
