Summary
Richmond planning staff presented an updated zoning map May 28 and the Planning Commission voted to recommend it to the City Council; staff said the city had not updated the map since 2006 and residents were notified by mail.
The City of Richmond Planning Commission voted May 28 to recommend a revised zoning map to the City Council for final approval after a public hearing and staff presentation.
City planner Kendra Ellner described the map update and said notices were mailed to affected property owners. Commissioner Jim Hemmesch individually explained to attending residents how their properties were zoned previously and what the new designation means, and staff emphasized the changes should not affect property taxes. The commission noted the city had not reviewed the zoning map since 2006 and that some changes reflect planning for future development.
Commissioner Jon Person moved to recommend the revised zoning map for final approval to the City Council; Commissioner Chuck Merten seconded the motion, and the transcript records that the motion passed. The recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council for final action; the transcript does not list a council hearing date or a roll-call vote.
