| Encroachments |
Any use of, or construction within, a public right-of-way is called an encroachment and requires authorization. Most encroachment types
may be authorized administratively with the submittal of the City's Administrative Approval Process Encroachment Application, and in a
some cases City Council approval may be required. In order to apply for a Council-approved encroachment, complete an encroachment
application, with a total of four copies, and submit to Room 110 City Hall, Permits & Services. The application form will guide you to
provide information and a survey plat or plan depicting items such as, but not limited to:
- Length, width, and area of the proposed encroachment.
- Extension into the public right-of-way.
- Distance from the encroachment to the next side street right-of-way line.
- Height above the sidewalk.
- Width of the sidewalk at the location of the encroachment.
The letter must be accompanied by a $300 check made out to the City of Richmond. This application fee is non-refundable, even if the
request is denied. Any Administrative Approval Process Encroachment Application should include the required liability insurance
certificate with the initial submittal, but no later than 15 working days after submittal of the application to Room 110 City Hall.
In the event the insurance certificate is not received within 15 working days after the submittal, then the application shall become
null and void and the applicant will be required to submit a new application and processing fee for approval considerations.
(Insurance limits enabled by Ord. 2005-49-122 adopted 06.13.05) For more information, call (804)646-6440.
