We had another great turnout last week, with 30 people joining us to share ideas and brainstorm action items on the topics of Natural + Working Lands and History + Traditions.
On the topic of Natural & Working Lands, many outcomes focused on the need for amending local zoning regulations to better protect Richmond’s natural resources and the need to have a more strategic approach toward resource protection.
On the topic of History & Traditions, outcomes focused on increasing awareness of historic preservation assistance programs and expanding existing traditional community events and starting new ones. Participants also identified an additional goal: documenting and preserving Richmond’s history for future generations by saving and digitizing photos and other documents.
The next Rapid Fire Planning Night is scheduled for Wednesday February 4, 2016. Topics will be Economic Opportunity, Vibrant & Appealing Downtown, and Small Town Character.
Join the conversation!
