Title: To authorize the special use of the property known as 1215 North 29th Street for the purpose of up to one two-family detached dwelling and one dwelling unit within an accessory building, upon certain terms and conditions. (7th District)
Summary
On March 23, 2026, the City of Richmond introduced Ordinance No. 2026-073 to authorize a special use permit for the property at 1215 North 29th Street. This permit allows for the construction of one two-family detached dwelling and one accessory dwelling unit (ADU) on a currently unimproved parcel in the R-6 Single-Family Attached Residential District. The request stems from the owner's intention to develop the property in line with the Richmond 300 Master Plan, which encourages mixed-use neighborhoods. A public hearing is scheduled for April 27, 2026. The legislation aims to ensure that the proposed development aligns with community standards and does not negatively impact local safety, health, or infrastructure. If approved
