A reminder from the Richmond Police Department, Traffic Safety Division concerning basketball
Goals. The City Ordinance prohibits basketball goals from being placed in all rights of way. This
includes all streets, alleyways, sidewalks and cul -de -sacs. We are asking that all residents
please comply with the City Ordinance and remove all basketball goals from these rights of way.
We understand the importance of outdoor activity; however, it must be done in a safe
environment. We think that everyone would agree that playing basketball in a city street has a
potential to cause injury to the participants and traffic hazards to motorist.
