Sparks residents can expect a new medical facility and childcare center following the City of Sparks Planning Commission's unanimous approval of a conditional use permit during their meeting on September 18, 2025. The project, located at 2105 Kapurra Way and 1755 Sullivan Lane, will expand the existing Life Change Center, which provides rehabilitation services, into a new building totaling 22,100 square feet.

Construction is anticipated to begin in March 2026, pending the submission of building permits by the end of this year. The remodel and addition are expected to take about a year, with most work occurring on-site to minimize traffic disruptions. The facility will include a drop zone for the daycare, ensuring safe access for parents.

While the specific tenants for the new lease spaces have yet to be determined, the facility will continue to offer professional support services similar to those currently provided. Notably, the project will not include urgent care services, focusing instead on medical office uses that align with the existing rehabilitation services.

Traffic management has been a key consideration, with plans to maintain access off Sullivan Lane, a major thoroughfare, to reduce congestion on nearby residential streets. The commission's decision reflects a commitment to enhancing community resources while managing potential impacts on local traffic and infrastructure.

As the project moves forward, it promises to provide valuable services to the Sparks community, reinforcing the city's ongoing development efforts.
