From Richmond.com:
The Richmond City Council closed ranks around the Stone Brewing deal Monday night in a critical vote that clears the way for the company to proceed with its plans for a Richmond brewery.
The council unanimously approved a land transfer that gives the Richmond Economic Development Authority control of the old Intermediate Terminal building near the James River in the city’s East End. Stone, a California-based craft brewery, wants to open a restaurant and beer garden in the former warehouse…
Last year, the council approved $23 million in bond funding to allow the development authority to build Stone a large-scale production facility in Greater Fulton. The restaurant phase is likely between two and five years away. But Stone officials said they wanted the restaurant property to be locked in before the company would invest millions in the first-phase production facility.
