Ward 6 Neighborhood Advisory Board Meeting - June 1, 2026

The City of Reno's Ward 6 Neighborhood Advisory Board held a meeting on June 1, 2026, primarily focused on a land development proposal involving annexation, master plan amendment, and zoning changes for two parcels south of South Virginia Street near I-580. Representatives from Wood Rodgers presented the proposal to bring the southern parcel into the city boundary, amend the master plan to designate portions as neighborhood commercial, industrial, and open space, and reduce industrial zoning to preserve hillside areas. The project is in early stages with no specific development planned yet, but the board discussed environmental considerations such as protection of a rare buckwheat plant and the impact of nearby geothermal activity. No contract awards, RFPs, or procurement decisions were made. The board also discussed a community outreach idea involving sponsorship of signage at the local Humane Society to raise awareness of the board's activities. The meeting concluded with no additional public comments and adjournment.
