Summary
Summary of formal actions taken by the Reno Planning Commission on June 5, 2025, including approvals of a tentative map and several permits and one tied master-plan amendment referred to City Council.
At its June 5 meeting the Reno Planning Commission acted on multiple land-use items. Below are the formal actions, outcomes and key details taken during the meeting.
- LDC25‑00054 — Dave & Buster’s conditional use permit: Approved unanimously. The commission expedited the item with no public comment and approved the CUP per the staff recommendation.
- LDC25‑00053 — Schwartz major deviation: Approved unanimously. The commission approved a major deviation to permit an existing fence to exceed the allowed height by 9 inches (to 6 feet 9 inches), closing a code enforcement case after receiving letters of support from adjacent property owners.
- LDC25‑00018 — Mount Rose Junction master-plan amendment and zoning map amendment (specific plan district): Motion to adopt master-plan amendment and recommend City Council approval failed on a technical 3–3 tie at the Planning Commission; the matter will proceed to City Council and then regional conformance review. Key points in debate included the proposed change from MF‑14 to an SPD using neighborhood commercial as the base zoning, an increase in maximum height to 38 feet, and an increase in potential density to 40 dwelling units per acre; staff added a minor site‑plan review trigger for any building exceeding 27.5 feet.
- LDC25‑00049 — Talus (Talus) Valley Village 22 tentative map: Approved unanimously. The commission approved a 144‑lot tentative map across two village subareas, with required construction of backbone infrastructure (including a signalized intersection at Talus Valley Parkway / South Meadows Parkway) before issuance of certificates of occupancy.
- LDC25‑00055 — High Desert Paving storage yard (conditional use permit): Approved unanimously with conditions. The approved CUP covers an approximately 11,200‑square‑foot fenced area on a 5.31‑acre parcel; conditions include limiting access hours to 7 a.m.–7 p.m., surfacing regularly trafficked unpaved areas with asphalt grindings, installing screening slats in the perimeter fence, prohibiting on‑site washing and installing five speed bumps along the access route through the mobile‑home park to protect adjacent residents.
All approved items will be subject to any appeal rights set out in the municipal code. The Mount Rose Junction master‑plan amendment will move to City Council for final consideration.
