Summary
Ordinance No. 2026-156, introduced on June 8, 2026, seeks to authorize the special use of properties located at 5219, 5221, and 5221½ Euclid Avenue in Richmond for the development of up to six single-family detached dwellings. This use is not currently permitted under existing zoning laws for the R-5 Single-Family Residential District because it does not meet specific requirements regarding lot areas and widths. The ordinance aims to ensure the proposed development aligns with community standards, enhancing public welfare without causing congestion or hazards. A public hearing is set for July 27, 2026. The initiative responds to the Richmond 300 Master Plan, promoting residential density and high-quality housing in
