(Marena Works)

Staff Summary: On October 3, 2014, the Board of Supervisors directed the City Manager to plan for a Nevada Sesquicentennial Fair and approved $75,000 in seed money for the Fair. The Fair was held July 31th B August 3rd of this year and exceeded expectations for attendance. The City Manager's office has since received numerous emails and thank you notes from citizens expressing their desire for the Fair to continue. The Nevada Appeal conducted an informal survey on their website asking "Should Carson City host a fair annually?" which received 1,156 votes; 864 stated yes and 292 no. Due to the popularity and need for fairs in Nevada, staff is bringing this action to the Board.

20. Public Works 

A) For Possible Action: To approve the reclassification of one Electrical/Signal Technician 3 position to an Electrical-Communication Foreman position within the Public Works Department. (Darren Schulz)

Staff Summary: The Electrical/Signal Division of Public Works continues to leverage emerging technology to raise operational readiness and promote efficiency. The public safety communication role that has recently been assigned to the division has increased the breadth of responsibility in addition to the complexity of the systems and equipment maintained. The Electrical-Communication Foreman position will provide for enhanced command and control of the electrical, instrumentation, utility automation, industrial network, communication, intelligent transportation, security, and asset management roles within the division. The employee in this position is currently performing duties that are appropriate for a Foreman position. This change will match the structure already present in the other Public Works divisions and does not conflict with the recommendations of the Pontifex classification study. This reclassification was approved by Internal Financial Committee (IFC) on September 3, 2014. 

B) 2014 Storm / Flood Events Presentation. (Darren Schulz)

Staff Summary: A presentation and discussion only regarding the July 20th and August 11th storm events and the flooding that occurred, with an overview of cleanup efforts and future mitigation plans.

Staff Summary: On July 30, 3014, the Planning Commission approved a Special Use Permit to allow multi-family dwelling units consisting of two, two-story, four-plex buildings (eight total units), on property zoned Residential Office. Decisions of the Planning Commission may be appealed to the Board of Supervisors. The Board of Supervisors may uphold, modify or reverse the Planning Commission's decision. 

B) For Possible Action: To introduce, on first reading, an ordinance amending the Carson City Municipal Code Title 4, Licenses and Business Regulations, Chapter 4.04, Business License, Section 4.04.005, Definitions, by adding Definitions for Medical Marijuana Establishments and Sections 4.04.030, 4.04.031 and 4.04.040 by adding fees for Medical Marijuana Establishments and exempting Medical Marijuana Establishments from certain fees, and other matters properly related thereto. (Susan Dorr Pansky)

Staff Summary: In July 2014, the Board of Supervisors adopted zoning regulations to allow Medical Marijuana Establishments in Carson City. On September 18, 2014, staff presented a Business Impact Statement for proposed Medical Marijuana Establishment Business License fees as required by NRS Chapter 237. The Board found that the proposed fees outlined in the Business Impact Statement would impose a direct and significant economic burden and would directly restrict formation, operation or expansion of a Medical Marijuana Establishment business. The Board then directed staff to prepare an ordinance modifying Chapter 4.04 of the Carson City Municipal Code related to Business Licenses addressing Business License fees and other requirements to obtain a Medical Marijuana Establishment Business License in Carson City.
