Still important to Voice Your Opposition ahead of Thursday, March 26th mtg
We have two more opportunities to voice our opposition to the Lakeridge Golf Hotel Resort
on the driving range. The project will be heard this Thursday March 26 at 6:00pm by the Regional Planning
Commission. You can attend in person at 1105 Terminal Way or send comments to the email addresses
below. If you are interested in submitting written public comment, please email your comments
to: input@tmrpa.org
Please reference 6A when writing your opposition letters.
Here is a link to the agenda: https://tmrpa.app.box.com/v/26-03-26-RPC-Agenda
The Duncan application triggers a review by Regional Planning Commission for two
reasons: Reno amended its master plan which requires a conformance review; and the
Suburban Mixed Use needed for the hotel use puts the property in a different regional
planning tier. The members of the RPC are listed below and a 2/3 vote is needed to
approve.
The committee is comprised of Planning Commissioners from Reno, Sparks, and Washoe
County. The outcome of the meeting will move to the Regional Board, in which a final
decision will be made.
Save Lakeridge will oppose the rezoning/hotel resort project before the Planning
Commission and, if approved, appeal to the Regional Board, which will meet in April.
The Regional Planning Commissioners are below, with their emails addresses.

With Sparks facing backlash at Red Hawk due to plans to replace a golf course with
housing, Sparks members may be more open to our opposition—it's worth pursuing.
