Description
Title: To authorize the special use of the property known as 2518 Grove Avenue for the purpose of a multifamily dwelling, upon certain terms and conditions. (2nd District)
Summary
The City of Richmond is considering an ordinance to authorize a special use permit for the property at 2518 Grove Avenue, allowing it to be utilized as a multifamily dwelling. This change is necessary because the current zoning, classified as R-6 Single-Family Attached Residential District, does not permit such usage. The ordinance includes terms to ensure the development will not negatively impact community safety, traffic, or public services. Key conditions require adherence to site plans, proper drainage, and screening of mechanical equipment. The decision follows public hearings and aims to enhance neighborhood living conditions without increasing density or compromising safety. The ordinance is set for public hearing on June 22, 2026.
