The committee recommended moving six land use, housing, and transportation items to the full Council. Those items would loosen rules for certain native-friendly landscaping, fold the Oak Grove Hillside Bellemeade Community Plan into the city’s Master Plan, and set up neighborhood planning work for Westwood. It also backed support for transportation funding requests in Chesterfield County and Henrico County, plus an agreement for planning Gilpin Court redevelopment and similar public housing efforts in the future.
