Owners of the vacant site of the former Lakeridge Tennis Club are now planning to build eight 4-story buildings to house 314 condominium units. Reno’s Planning Commissioners approved those plans on March 17, 2021, but 18 individuals have each filed appeals to City Council. Those appeals will be heard during City Council’s meeting on April 28, 2021.
In January 2021, City Council heard a presentation from Councilmember Naomi Duerr, requesting City Council initiate a rezoning of the site from GC (General Commercial, formerly Community Commercial) to MF-14, or 14 units to the acre. MF-14 would match the density of the adjacent apartments, significantly reduce concerns about increased traffic congestion and still enable the owners to build 130 units on the site. However, Council did not finish their discussions of Ms. Duerr’s request at that meeting.
If you have any comments or concerns about rezoning that site and/or the new proposed building plans, the members of the City Council would like to hear from you. Their email addresses are
