Sewer Utility System (Reno City Council Meeting 7.30.25)
Description
Similar to how preventative maintenance on your vehicle could prevent major damage down the road, maintaining sewer pipes today can prevent costly repairs tomorrow!
To understand more about the sewer utility system, we are joined by Trina Magoon, Director of Utility Services, and John Flansberg, Regional Infrastructure Administrator. They explain how our underground wastewater system works, why maintaining it is essential to public health, and the critical challenges the City is facing with aging infrastructure and treatment capacity.
Jackie also previews what’s coming up at the next Council meeting on August 13, including updates on emergency dispatch systems, affordable housing projects, and a deep dive into how Reno’s largest revenue source, consolidated taxes, works.
