The City of Reno's Ward 2 Neighborhood Advisory Board meeting on June 16, 2026, included discussions on several development and infrastructure projects. Public comments focused on concerns about a Reno Housing Authority affordable housing project, particularly its density and compatibility with neighborhood zoning. The board also reviewed a proposal for installing a permanent emergency backup generator at the Main 1 Booster Pump Station to improve water service reliability during power outages and fire events.
