• Businesses in compliance were:
Rapscallion
Corrigan’s Bit O’Ireland
Filthy McNasty’s Irish Bar
Candela Bar & Nightclub
Wolf Den
Ryan’s Saloon and Broiler

• There were no citations issued but some businesses were asked to make minor corrections such as unlocking a fire door; turning off a projecting illumination sign that was pointing to an adjacent building; having a mobile food vendor move from the public right of way; posting a doorman to prevent alcohol outside of the business and having a security guard carry an alcohol awareness training card.

CSAST was created to ensure departments within the city work collectively with business and property owners. The team consists of representatives from the Reno Police Department, Code Enforcement, Business License and Reno Fire Department plus will include other agencies when needed.
