Bob and Nancy, married for 42 years have four grown children and nine grandchildren, all living in northern Nevada. So our future matters. That’s one reason he’s running for re-election.

Bob sees a maturing Reno. He sees a Reno that can no longer operate with a “business as usual” attitude. Bob also sees the brightness of Reno’s future and he and the Council have spent the past four years focused on making Reno a great place to live, work and play.

Bob Cashell believes what we achieve we achieve together. Bob also believes that Reno residents are fortunate to have a cohesive Reno City Council that works together to get things done.

Whether it’s a summer afternoon kayaking at the Truckee River Whitewater Park or a winter evening ice skating with your family, Reno residents are returning to downtown and taking a new sense of pride in their city.

Another part of a maturing city is a cleaner Reno. Shortly after being elected in 2002, Bob created a “hit list” of blighted areas that needed to be cleaned up. The Council increased the number of code enforcement oficers and initiated the Reno Clean & Green program. This program occurs every spring and fall to let residents clean up their own neighborhoods. Whether it’s a major redevelopment project or simply painting the curbs, Bob and the Council sees the value in a clean city.
