City Of Richmond, Virginia

The capital of the Commonwealth of Virginia, the City of Richmond lies on the beautiful James River. Just two hours south of our nation’s capital, Richmond is home to roughly 230,000 people and anchors a metro region of about 1.3 million. Our workforce of dedicated public servants is committed to making Richmond a more efficient, inclusive, and compassionate city, where all Richmonders have the opportunity to live a high quality of life and meet their full potential. Richmond’s government structure is a strong mayor system with a city council and administration overseen by a Chief Administrative Officer. The current mayor is Mayor Levar M. Stoney, and the current Chief Administrative Officer is J.E. Lincoln Saunders. The councilors for each of Richmond’s nine city council districts can be found here: https://www.rva.gov/richmond-city-council/council-contacts. All members of Richmond’s government work together to provide services, support residents and businesses, and plan for a more equitable, fair future.
