Greg Kidd, Affordability, and the Curious Company He Keeps
Gregg Kidd is back—once again attempting to “understand” Northern Nevada.
The well-funded would-be public servant is hosting yet another Meeting the Moment: Affordability Crisis Town Hall on Tuesday, January 21, from 5:00–6:30 p.m. at the Reno Public Market.
