The City of Richmond is considering a contentious proposal to phase out the handling of coal and petroleum coke within the city. The debate pits environmentalists against union workers — with Richmond's Mayor, Tom Butt — in the middle. He postponed last week's vote on the measure as he tries to reach a deal with a private shipping terminal on the city’s waterfront.
