The City of Richmond will hold a virtual public meeting on August 19 at 6:00 p.m. to discuss upcoming utility work in the Forest Hill Avenue area. The meeting aims to provide more information and address questions about planned projects, which include replacing old water lines and deteriorated sewer laterals.
