Reno’s City Council seat for Ward 1 is up for grabs and, so far, three people are vying for it.
The Ward 1 seat is held now by Jenny Brekhus who will be filing for reelection Wednesday. The area includes a big chunk of the MidTown District, a growing corridor for new shops and restaurants.
Brekhus says she’s proud of the support she and the city have garnered from small businesses in that area. “Unlike a mall, individual businesses in these particularly older retail districts, they very much depend upon the public improvements and environment, from public safety to street trees, parking management,” Brekhus explains.
