The reason i say this is because they time all of our traffic signals and when was the last time you made it anywhere in Washoe county without going thru more then 3 traffic lights that are green? I know people are going to say the obvious, which is the Reddit way, that i need to calm down or something like that, but here's a point to this. I was talking with a city of Reno employee with official business on Keystone Avenue he said RTC is the ones who time the traffic signals and they are not timed. How hard would it be to buy some traffic counters or use the ones they have with volunteers putting them out. Other cities do it, so why don't we? It seems like Reno is stuck in the past. Please, people call this number about every traffic signal that is not working properly (all of them) REPORT TRAFFIC SIGNAL ISSUES, CALL 775-335-ROAD (775-335-7623)

Following up on my previous post, I just published a video examining the pole, its design, and provide evidence and hypothesis as to why these are collapsing to the ground on the public sidewalks and streets.

11am: Army National Guard said that the route North is "hard closed." Said we can leave via South route to Hwy 395 for essentials. ID will be checked. ID must show a residence address for this area.

This year looked like half the cars. Virginia was ok but still smaller than years passed. All supporting Casino were smaller as well. Is it the Economy, other venues, or disinterest that has changed this years? Your thoughts?

Our Riverwalk and rights to use it freely is decaying.

The amphitheater in Wingfield park which has always been open to the public to use as part of the park facilities has now been fenced with a no trespassing sign. The Municipal Corporation of the City of Reno does not have the authority under Nevada Revised Statutes to close off public access to public facilities during open hours. It is a violation of our rights.

Sleeping and camping are not the same as active public use of a park facility which has existed for decades. It should be treated no differently than any other park facility such as open shelters, benches, free speech zones, performance areas, or walkways.

Without fencing off the rear it is vague and unclear where the prohibited space begins and ends. The rear walkways surrounding and entering the amphitheater structure are open, unfenced and not posted "no trespassing." It's Void for vagueness. Again, because it was DESIGNED for public accessibility.

This is just like the City "Believe" Plaza. It's just like the city fencing off our riverwalk. Just how much of our park did we just lose? It's unclear. This enforcement versus the design of infrastructure demonstrates the shift in philosophy under which government considers what just "is public space." If we don't fight to retain our public spaces we stand to lose everything but the most minimum public rights-of-way. This is creeping into the exact circumstances Eddie Lorton wanted to arrest "homeless people" for merely occupying a public space.

The City is likely committing an act of Ultra Vires.

And all this in the name of "activation?" "Revitalisation?"

What happened to "beautification?" Commons?

This has to stop.

Sec. 8.10.010. - Trespassing.

(a) Every person who goes upon the land or into any building of another with intent to vex or annoy the owner or occupant thereof, or to commit any unlawful act, or wilfully goes or remains upon any land or in any building after having been warned by the owner or occupant thereof not to trespass, is guilty of a misdemeanor.

(c) It is prima facie evidence of trespass for any person to be found on private or public property which is posted or fenced as provided in subsection (b) without lawful business with the owner or occupant of the property.

(d) An entryman on land under the laws of the United States is an owner within the meaning of this section.

(e) As used in this section, "fence" means a barrier sufficient to indicate an intent to restrict the area to human ingress, including, but not limited to, a wall, hedge or chain link or wire mesh fence.

Hey everyone, I’m looking to make a career change and get into plumbing this fall and wanted to get some advice from people actually working in the trade around here.
I’m 32 and currently work in property maintenance in the South Lake Tahoe area. I’ve been doing maintenance-type work for about 8 years and currently take care of high-end vacation homes around Tahoe. I have experience with basic plumbing including snaking drains, replacing faucets, toilet repairs, installing garbage disposals, finding/repairing leaks, pool and hot tub systems, along with some electrical, appliance, and general property maintenance work.
I’ve gotten to the point where I want to stop just doing a little bit of everything and actually learn a skilled trade, work toward becoming a journeyman, and make a long-term career out of it. Plumbing is what interests me the most.
Ideally I’d like to find an apprenticeship or entry-level plumbing position in South Lake Tahoe, but I’m willing to commute to Carson City or Reno for the right opportunity. I’m looking to make the switch around mid-October 2026.
I’ve been looking into union apprenticeships as well as ABC Nevada and applying directly with plumbing companies. It looks like I may have missed the application window for UA Local 350 this year, so I’m trying to figure out the best route to get my foot in the door without waiting another year.
For anyone working in plumbing around Tahoe/Reno/Carson:
What companies or apprenticeship programs would you recommend?
Is October/November a bad time of year to try getting hired as a new apprentice?
Would you recommend union, ABC, or getting hired directly by a plumbing company first?
Any local companies that treat their apprentices well and actually teach them?
With my maintenance background, what would be a reasonable starting wage to expect?
I’m not afraid of hard work or starting at the bottom. I mainly want to make sure I get in somewhere that will actually teach me the trade and give me a path toward becoming a journeyman.
Any advice from local plumbers, apprentices, or people who have gone through the programs around here would be appreciated. Thanks!

how much is it and what is the vibe there
