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.

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.

Building Permits (1)

Code Enforcement (0)

All new cases including "Suspect" (complaints filed but not yet investigated).

No code enforcement cases opened this period.

Failed Inspections (0)

Inspections where the City recorded a failure or violation outcome. Passes aren't surfaced — they mean the work was correct, which isn't news.

No failed inspections this period.

Status Changes (1)

Curated terminal transitions on permits, land-use plans, and code cases — the events that move a case into a final state.
