Ward 3 Neighborhood Advisory Board Meeting - June 2, 2026

The City of Reno's Ward 3 Neighborhood Advisory Board meeting on June 2, 2026, covered a variety of community and city planning topics, with a focus on neighborhood safety, zoning issues, and public health concerns. A key procurement-related discussion involved a property owner seeking rezoning from general commercial back to residential to enable financing for remodeling an older house. The board also discussed traffic calming measures and pedestrian safety improvements, including potential infrastructure projects like flashing pedestrian lights and roundabouts, with input from city staff and council members. Additionally, the board addressed the ongoing moratorium on new data center applications, highlighting concerns about energy use, environmental impact, and city policy limitations. There was interest in future presentations from city departments and agencies, including development services and regional transportation planning. The meeting also featured a detailed presentation on adolescent mental health related to digital technology use, though this was not directly tied to procurement. No specific contract awards or RFPs were mentioned, but discussions on infrastructure and city planning indicate potential future procurement activities. The board agreed to continue engagement on these issues and to invite relevant city representatives for further updates.
