Generally, and subject to limitations, non-conforming uses in the City of Richmond may be allowed to continue, but the floor area of the use cannot be expanded by more than 10% and the use cannot "intensify", such as expanding operations to new services, unless they comply with current zoning regulations. Non-conforming uses refer to uses that were legally established under previous zoning codes but do not conform to the current zoning regulations. While these uses may be allowed to continue to operate, any expansion or modification requires approval and must meet the standards set forth in the Municipal Code. It's important to consult the Planning Division for guidance on specific situations involving non-conforming uses.
