City of Richmond:
“A Richmond City Council resolution on the Shockoe Bottom
baseball stadium plan cleared another committee Thursday, but a debate that
ended without unanimity offered a preview of what may be in store when the full
council considers the plan next week. The council’s finance and economic development
committee advanced a resolution seeking council support for ‘continued
negotiations’ on the Shockoe plan.
The administration of Mayor Dwight C. Jones has said the
resolution, which is on the agenda for Monday’s council meeting, will allow it
to firm up the details of various agreements among the Richmond Economic
Development Authority, the developers and the Richmond Flying Squirrels before
bringing the deals back for council approval in late March or early April. Though
the three-member panel didn’t forward the measure with an official
recommendation, Councilwomen Kathy C. Graziano, 4th District, and Ellen F.
Robertson, 6th District, voiced favorable opinions, saying it would give the
council the information it needs to make a final decision.”
