Ward 5: The Meeting That Wasn’t
Only in Reno do you cancel a hybrid meeting—yes, hybrid—25 minutes before it’s set to start because of “no quorum.” Think about that. Residents showed up in person, people were ready online, and yet somehow the City of Reno couldn’t round up enough board members to click a Zoom link or dial in by phone?
Ward 5 residents dutifully schlepped downtown, navigated parking headaches, and wove through City Hall’s sidewalk homeless scene just to be greeted by a notice of cancellation. The message? Your time is disposable.
Game, Set, Match: Your Chance to Serve Complaints to Councilmember Reese
Attention Ward 5 and City of Reno residents. While Ward 5 Neighborhood Advisory Board meetings seem to have mysteriously vanished from Councilmember Devon Reese's calendar, he has managed to find time for something truly essential: Community Tennis and Pickleball Day.
Yes, while your concerns about the Lakeridge development, ADUs on your lot line, and that charming Jiffy Lube proposal for Mayberry and Hunter Lake, you can rest easy knowing your elected representative is perfecting his backhand. Sure most of this, except the ADUs are not in Ward 5 but activist citizens have been using their voices at NAB meetings and should have the right to equally be heard in Ward 5.
