Summary
The council considered whether to keep planning authority over 338 acres south of the Truckee River or hand it over to Washoe County. Because potential developments like charter schools are tax-exempt and would bring few financial returns while increasing city service costs, the council voted to remove the land from Sparks' sphere of influence.
