Swan Lake Saga Continues: Washoe County Remembers North Valleys Exists

Breaking news from the "Better Late Than Never" department: Washoe County has emerged from its bureaucratic hibernation plan to send notifications to North Valleys residents about Swan Lake. Yes, the same North Valleys they've treated like their distant cousin at family reunions.

After a history of managing North Valleys issues with all the grace of a swan on roller skates, the County is attempting to show they care. Perhaps they found North Valleys on a map? Or maybe someone reminded them that these residents also pay taxes? County Manager Eric Brown even sent an email to the commissioners.

County Manager Eric Brown’s December 27, 2024 email to the troops, oops, commissioners.

We'll be watching to see if this notification marks a true turning point in County-North Valleys relations, or if it's just another case of "we sent an email, what more do you want from us?"

Stay tuned, North Valleys residents. Your forgotten status might be upgrading to "occasionally remembered."
