The resolution to amend B-3 zoning, CPCR .2020.033, is back on the agenda for the City’s Planning Commission on Aug. 3rd!
It is now accompanied by another resolution CPCR.2020.039: To declare an intent to amend certain properties in the B-3 General Business District.

The City belatedly added text for the CPCR.2020.039. The text for the Oregon Hill portion of the B-3 on W. Cary is hardly satisfactory: “Staff recommends including the area in the Richmond 300 planning process and looking at the area comprehensively.”

Since the planning department has ignored Oregon Hill’s concerns related to the future land use designations in the Richmond 300 plan, it is hardly a comfort that they look to the Richmond 300 planning process for rezoning W. Cary Street in the Oregon Hill Historic District!
