Property & Development
5 permits applied0 in zoning & land use1 new businesses & uses1 code cases3 failed inspections
Zoning & Land Use (0)
New filings, Planning Commission recommendations, adopted SUPs, BZA decisions, and capital project events.
No zoning or land-use activity this period.
New businesses & changes of use (1)
When a business opens, a tenant or owner changes, or a use is cleared by zoning, the city issues a Certificate of Zoning Compliance (use cleared) or a Certificate of Occupancy (now open / changed hands). New-construction occupancy is shown under Building Permits, not here.
| Date | Case | Signal | Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sep 24, 2026Approved | CZC-191199-2026 | Use cleared | Laundrymat Business5213 Warwick Road Richmond VA 23224 |
Use details are shown for non-residential properties only. Richmond also issues home-based-business zoning approvals at residential addresses; those records are public on the city portal, but we deliberately don't highlight the use here, because it ties a home address to an individual's livelihood.
