Current Issues

We are deeply concerned with the current deteriorated state of Richmond's government operations, left almost in ashes by Levar Stoney and Lincoln Saunders. Our recent half page ad on page 3 of the Richmond Times Dispatch was entitled, "The Pitiful State of Richmond City Finance. The Wheels have fallen off." We are serious. Click here to see that ad.

We hope to collaborate with Mayor Avula and City Council to make specific, measurable, and dramatic, near term improvements in many of the areas detailed in our NEXT AREAS OF FOCUS tab:

The Return of the Richmond City Employee Directory! On this Site

That's right, we now provide all interested parties a search tool to access city employees by name or department, including their email addresses and direct phone numbers. Mayor Avula promised transparency, and with our help, it begins here. No longer should you be frustrated over an inability to reach city hall staff. If they happen not to answer, we'll give you the Mayor's information as well.
