Land Use Application
Minto Communities appreciates the valuable feedback we have received since sharing the revised concept in June 2024. Thank you to everyone who participated during the City’s extended comment period and engaged with the 2501 Richmond project team.
As part of the approval process, the City has compiled its technical and public comments and issued a second Detailed Review letter (DR2). You can view it here.

With the technical review from the City, and community feedback on the revised concept, the project team will update the application for resubmission this fall.
