David Bobzien was serving as a Nevada assemblyman when he was appointed to the Reno City Council in 2014, after then Councilwoman Hillary Schieve was elected mayor.

Bobzien says it was perfect timing.

“One of the last things I was involved in with the legislature was the Tesla special session, so I remember waking up the morning after that thinking, ‘My goodness, this is a tremendous opportunity and there’s going to be the possibility of some really exciting developments coming to Reno.’”

He says that while it’s an exciting time for the city, it’s the job of the council to keep this enthusiasm in check.
