ISSUES ….. ISSUES…….. and more ISSUES ……….

To many taxpayers, management of the City of Richmond seems out of control, with politicians and bureaucrats doing as little as possible, while  evading issues until they ferment real community discontent and pushback.  This disconnect with the public, has lead to the formation of many  community organizations, representing thousands of people, now consolidating for collective support through the Richmond Taxpayers Alliance.

For the site visitor, a number of issues are listed in the drop-down menu. For others, the following organizations also exist, and may be able to address your issue directly.
