RENO, Nev. (AP) — Reno officials are considering changing the rules regarding how strip clubs operate in hopes of redeveloping parts of the city.
At a Reno City Hall workshop Thursday, city staff discussed a new ordinance that could have strip clubs move or lose alcohol sales in the next two years.
City officials say they want to create redevelopment districts in downtown and midtown Reno, but current strip clubs in the area are hindering those efforts.

City officials are now soliciting comments on the ordinance change, which is in its earliest stage
