Concerns
- Increasing traffic for area residents
- Elimination of parking for Keystone Trail hikers
History

- The Keystone Canyon PUD Development Standards Handbook (formerly Keystone Community Campus), was adopted in February 2000 and was revised in September 2003, August 2004, and December 2011.
- A tentative map for Villas I & II was approved in 2015.
- The tentative map and special use permit were approved by the Reno Planning Commission in December 2017.
