Is everything north of the river...the Northside?

Now that a literally Pulitzer Prize Winner has weighed in, I hope Lamar will choose to do the right thing.

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen the City request feedback on a document outline before, so it’s a bit odd, but I’m kind of into it!

Get your highlighter ready: The participatory budgeting rulebook, Fall Line Vision Plan, and Cultural Resources Management Plan all drop today.

We need smart, thoughtful, and caring people to step up and run in School Board races this year. Maybe that’s you?

I thought I could avoid writing about Richmond’s Gun Hole.

Never read the comments, but do just this one time to get a feel for how so many people’s default state is anti-housing.
