Richmond's Guide to Being a Good Neighbor

This booklet summarizes select city ordinances as of June 2021 and is not meant to be a complete account of all ordinances. City Council often amends ordinances so it is important to check with the responsible department indicated to ensure there have been no changes since this booklet was published.
