Description
Title: To authorize the special use of the property known as 2300 Mimosa Street for the purpose of no more than two single-family detached dwellings, upon certain terms and conditions. (6th District)
Summary
The ordinance introduced on July 27, 2026, authorizes the special use of the property at 2300 Mimosa Street in Richmond for the construction of up to two single-family detached dwellings. This development is necessary as it does not conform to existing R-5 zoning regulations regarding lot area and width. The ordinance specifies conditions to ensure that the new use will not harm community welfare, safety, or infrastructure. The City Planning Commission and City Council conducted public hearings to gather input. This initiative aligns with the Richmond 300 Master Plan, supporting residential development and addressing housing shortages in the area. Public hearings are scheduled for September 14, 2026.
