Series of meetings planned on Richmond's East End revitalization

Richmond city officials will hold a series of public meetings next month to discuss the revitalization of the 25th Street/Nine Mile Road corridor. The goal is to develop specific proposals for design, housing and business opportunities for the East End.

Homeowners can benefit from revitalization projects. If well-planned and carried out, such projects lift the values of properties within and near the renovated areas.

The sessions:

• June 2 at 5 p.m. at the Robinson Theatre, 2903 Q St.
• June 5 (Children's session) from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Family Resource Center, 2405 Jefferson Ave.
• June 7 at 5 p.m., at the Robinson Theatre. (Closing Session)
