What to Tell Your Councilmember
We’ve heard talk that some on City Council wish to make changes to Stoney’s plan and reallocate where some of those funds go. Here is language that we’ve used to communicate with Richmond’s elected officials. You are welcome to use it as well, and we encourage you to make your voice heard.
