The Richmond Regional PDC legislative liaison tracks bills and resolutions of interest to member jurisdictions. Monthly legislative updates are presented at PDC Board meetings while the General Assembly is in session (60 days in even-numbered years and 30 days in odd-numbered years, commencing the second Wednesday in January) with a final report, The Yeas and Nays Report (2007) provided to all members in April/May. This report is also accessible through the RRPDC web site.
While the General Assembly is in session, liaisons from the region (Chesterfield, Hanover, Henrico counties, City of Richmond, Richmond Regional PDC, Crater Planning District Commission, and the Greater Richmond Chamber of Commerce) coordinate monthly Capital Region Caucus (the legislative caucus which represents the Richmond region) meetings with area legislators to exchange information about the work of legislative committees and study commissions, as well as activities within each jurisdiction. Once the General Assembly is adjourned, periodic caucus meetings are held to continue dialogue.
In addition to offering legislative assistance to member jurisdictions during each General Assembly session, the Richmond Regional PDC legislative liaison tracks VACO and VML meetings throughout the year to facilitate collaborative action.
