Step One
For submittals regarding Conformance Reviews, Master Plan Amendments (MPA), Projects of Regional Significance (PRS), and/or Regional Plan Amendments (RPA): Please begin the process by downloading the Submittal Checklist. Fill out the information within the checklist, and be sure you have all required materials.
Please note, the Submittal Checklist does not replace the requirements encapsulated within the Regional Plan.
Step Two
After completion of the checklist, continue to submit the checklist as well as all other application materials by emailing them to submit@tmrpa.org
For additional information regarding submittals, such as what proposals TMRPA reviews and the Regional Plan policies used for analysis, see the 2024 Truckee Meadows Regional Plan.
Check out our 2024 Regional Data Viewer, which shows data layers that TMRPA utilizes within the Truckee Meadows region. Or take a look at our Interactive Map, TMRPA tracks active Tentative Maps and Planned Unit Developments as well as units remaining to be built in those areas which can be seen within this map. Another useful map is our Natural Resource Consideration Areas (NRCA) map, which shows data layers that TMRPA has compiled to display areas within the TMSA that have potential Natural Resource Considerations.
The NR Portal is an invaluable tool for TMRPA, its partners, and the public alike in having a centralized location to access natural resource data that is linked to the structure of the narrative Natural Resources Plan document.
