A housing developer has put up fencing that blocks the mustangs’ access to critical water sources in the Damonte Ranch area in Reno.
The developer has yet to obtain the necessary approvals for their development plans.
Despite this, they've taken action that puts our wildlife at risk.
Humane compromises that would preserve access for all wildlife and enable the landowner to proceed with development once they have the required approvals in place exist.
The fencing must be open immediately until a compromise solution is reached.
One way to protect wildlife while developments are growing and expanding is to prioritize the South Reno fencing project.
This is a community concern and the community wants fencing to protect the horses and local residents.
- I urge you, the City Council, to fund the South Reno Fencing Project
