1. Cities & Towns

Discuss in my forum

With 2009 in the rear view mirror, most of us are probably saying, "Good riddance!" It was a rough one and I hope we learned enough to help make the ride through 2010 a little smoother. It can be instructive, however, to look back at some of the big stories in 2009, if for no other reason than to remind ourselves of the unique aspects of our Reno / Tahoe region.
  • Jaycee Lee Dugard Found
  • Play Ball! Reno Aces Opening Season
  • Senator John Ensign Sex Scandal
  • Legends at Sparks Marina Opens
  • 75th Regular Session of the Nevada Legislature
  • Reno Arch Goes Green
  • City Manager Charles McNeely Leaves Town
  • Declining Revenue Strangling Reno City Budget
  • Big Snow & Deep Freeze in December
  • Inversion Traps Cold Air & Pollution
  • Governor Jim Gibbons and Dawn Gibbons Divorce Saga

If I missed something you think was a big story in 2009, please leave a comment and let us know. It would also be good to hear your comments on the choices I made.
