The Dynasty

Want to do business in Richmond?  Use one of our friends to assist you with getting your projects approved...

How can one family sit on various levels of our government?  If you are looking to do business in Richmond, you must first deal with someone from the family. 

Tom Butt (the father): Mayor

Andrew Butt (the son): former Planning Commissioner - See above where he tells a housing developer to use one of his friends if they want their project approved.

The Daughter-in-law: Design Review Board

Daniel Butt: the lawyer who will sue you if you disagree with his dad. Has sued/defended against the City of Richmond several times to assist his father, the Mayor. Sits on the opposite side on current lawsuits pending with the City - Do we think he doesn't tell his dad, so that the Mayor knows both sides of the lawsuit against his projects - creating a conflict of interest.
