Note: The transcript states the meeting was held on May 14, 2026, but the official date provided for this summary is May 19, 2026. This discrepancy is noted.

The Washoe County Parcel Map Review Committee met on May 19, 2026, at 2:06 PM to consider one project review item and handle routine business. The meeting was called to order by the Chair with a quorum present: Rob Pierce, Wayne Handrock, Eric Young, and Jennifer Williamson (Wes Rubio absent). The Chair led the ethics announcement and appeal procedure. No public comments were received.

  • The March 12, 2026 draft minutes were approved unanimously (motion by Rob Pierce, second by Wayne Handrock; all ayes).

Discussion Items

  • Project Review: WTPM26-0002 Rocky Mountain Vista Parcel Map
    Chris Frantic presented the request to subdivide a 5-acre parcel at 15990 Rocky Vista Road into four lots (ranging from 43,800 to 58,110 sq ft). The property is zoned Medium Density Suburban with Southeast Truckee Meadows modifiers requiring a minimum lot size of 21,780 sq ft. Staff found all criteria met and recommended approval.
