19. City Manager
19.A For Possible Action: To recommend to the Board of Supervisors approval of the First Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Commitment Agreement for Continuing Business Operation between Carson City and Richard Campagni. (Nick Marano, nmarano@carson.org)
Late Materials (7/1/16)
Staff Summary: The Redevelopment Plan for Project Area No. 2 provides for public-private partnerships to retain and expand Carson City's auto sales sector. On March 17, 2005, the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. RAR-2, a resolution to allow the Redevelopment Authority / Board of Supervisors to consider, on an individual basis, projects / incentive packages that are clearly designed to secure and stimulate auto sales investment along South Carson Street.
Mr. Campagni continues to improve the City's redevelopment areas as evidenced by the recent remodeling and expansion of his businesses. This continued commitment to the City and its inhabitants amounts to value commensurate with payments toward the Promissory Note. This amendment will deem the note satisfied at the end of calendar year 2016. This will result in an additional two years of incentive payments of 10% of the City's portion of the Basic City-County Relief Tax and Supplemental City- County Relief Tax, approximately $386,000 based on long term projections to the business.
20. Public Comment:**
The public is invited at this time to comment on any matter that is not specifically included on the agenda as an action item. No action may be taken on a matter raised under this item of the agenda.

23. City Manager
23.A For Possible Action: To approve the First Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Commitment Agreement for Continuing Business Operation between Carson City and Richard Campagni. (Nick Marano, nmarano@carson.org)
Late Materials (7/1/16)
Staff Summary: The Redevelopment Plan for Project Area No. 2 provides for public-private partnerships to retain and expand Carson City's auto sales sector. On March 17, 2005, the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. RAR-2, a resolution to allow the Redevelopment Authority / Board of Supervisors to consider, on an individual basis, projects / incentive packages that are clearly designed to secure and stimulate auto sales investment along South Carson Street.
24. Fire
24.A For Possible Action: To adopt Bill No. 109, on second reading, an ordinance amending the Carson City Municipal Code Title 14 Chapter 14.02 - in order to make it consistent with NAC 477. (Robert Schreihans, rschreihans@carson.org)
Staff Summary: This will be the second reading of an ordinance to update the currently adopted Fire Code, in order to be consistent with changes to the Nevada State Fire Marshal Regulations NAC 477.
25. Purchasing and Contracts
25.A For Possible Action: To approve Amendment No. 1 to Contract No. 1415-150 Inmate Telephone Services Agreement with ICSolutions to change the various calling rates and reduce the commission rate to 45.1% as a result of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) implementing changes. (Laura Tadman; Ltadman@carson.org and Ken Furlong; Kfurlong@carson.org)
Staff Summary: The FCC recently implemented changes designed to lower calling rates and reduce or eliminate fees for inmate phone calls across the country. There are two parts to the ruling: a “tiered” rate structure and a “fee cap”. The “tiered” rate structure was challenged in the Court of Appeals and is still being litigated. The “fee cap” was upheld. Fees paid by the consumer are currently $5.95. The FCC ruling will reduce that amount to $3.00. As a result, ICSolutions is requesting a change in the fee structure of our current contract.
Carson City currently receives a commission of 55.1% of gross revenue for all call types generated from the Carson City Detention Facility. The amendment will reduce that to 45.1%.
26. Health and Human Services
26.A For Possible Action: To approve Carson City Health and Human Services applying for Federal Transportation Alternatives/STP Set-aside funding through the Nevada Department of Transportation in an amount not to exceed $250,000 annually for the period lasting October 1, 2016 to September 30, 2019 to continue and expand the Western Nevada Safe Routes to School Program. (Nicki Aaker, naaker@carson.org and Cortney Bloomer, cbloomer@carson.org)
Staff Summary: This funding opportunity will continue and expand the Western Nevada Safe Routes to School Program to increase active transportation and improve bicycle and pedestrian safety for children and families in Carson City and the surrounding area.
27. Parks and Recreation
27.A For Possible Action: To approve a use agreement between Carson City and the Carson City Railroad Association and to authorize Mayor Robert L. Crowell to sign the agreement on behalf of Carson City. (Vern Krahn, vkrahn@carson.org)
Staff Summary: The proposed use agreement between Carson City and the Carson City Railroad Association to use the premises known as the station, engine house, storage shed, water tower, and adjoining said premises, and accommodate approximately four thousand three hundred (4,300) linear feet of train track for the operation of a miniature riding train. These facilities are located in the eastern half of Mills Park, APN No. 002-181-01. This new use agreement will replace an expired use agreement with the Carson City Railroad Association.
28. Finance
28.A For Possible Action: To accept the report on the condition of each fund in the treasury and the statements of receipts and expenditures through June 22, 2016 per NRS 251.030 and NRS 354.290. (Nancy Paulson, npaulson@carson.org)
Staff Summary: NRS 251.030 requires the Chief Financial Officer (for the purpose of the statute acting as the County Auditor) to report to the Board of County Commissioners (or in our case the Board of Supervisors), at each regular meeting thereof, the condition of each fund in the treasury. NRS 354.290 requires the County Auditor to report to the Board of Supervisors a statement of revenues and expenditures based on the accounts and funds as were used in the budget. A more detailed accounting is available on the City’s website – www.carson.org.
28.B For Possible Action: To adopt a resolution to levy the Carson City Fiscal Year 2016-17 ad valorem tax rates as certified by the Nevada Tax Commission. (Nancy Paulson, npaulson@carson.org)
Staff Summary: By law, the Board of Supervisors sets the Carson City tax rates annually after the Nevada Tax Commission certifies the tax rates. This resolution sets the tax rates as approved in the Board of Supervisors and Redevelopment Authority budget hearings as well as setting the local rates for other governing bodies per the schedule.
29. Public Works
29.A For Possible Action: To accept the recommendation from the Parks and Recreation Commission to pursue a land exchange with Mr. Michael Fagen for 20 acres of land he owns on U.S. Highway 50 near the Clear Creek Interchange, APN 007-051-81, for 0.81 acres of vacant park property located between Karin Drive and Sunland Court, APN 002-373-07, with the condition that costs towards acquisition do not exceed 20% of the estimated value of the park property. (Stephanie Hicks; SHicks@carson.org and Ann Bollinger; ABollinger@carson.org)
Staff Summary: On January 15, 2015, the Board of Supervisors directed staff to compile a list of appropriate trade parcels and continue a conversation with Mr. Fagen. Since that time, several parcels have been considered and reviewed. For one reason or another, none were considered eligible for disposal/trade. Staff has identified for possible exchange APN 002-373-07, a parcel owned by the City and managed by the Parks Division located between Karin Drive and Sunland Court and across the cul-de-sac from Sunland Vista Park.
29.B For Possible Action: To approve Amendment No. 4 of the Carson City Freeway Agreement with the State of Nevada, Department of Transportation. This amendment will specify when the State-owned portions of South Carson Street and Snyder Avenue will transfer to the City, when the remaining payments to the State will resume in the future, and provide for a transfer of funds from the State to the City in lieu of a previously agreed-upon pavement improvement project on South Carson Street. (Darren Schulz, dschulz@carson.org)
Late Materials (7/6/16)
Staff Summary: The current Freeway agreement does not account for the current and future phasing of the overall project or the City's desire to modify the design of South Carson Street following the opening of Phase 2B-3 to traffic. A significant reduction in traffic is expected and the transfer of the street from the State to the City needs to be clarified. The proposed amendment would modify the agreement to account for those factors.
29.C For Possible Action: To approve the language of the ballot question on motor vehicle fuel tax indexing which will be placed on the November 2016 general election ballot as required by Assembly Bill No. 191 of 2015. (Darren Schulz, dschulz@carson.org)
Staff Summary: Carson City is required to approve the ballot language which will be used in November 2016 regarding motor vehicle fuel tax indexing. Draft ballot language has been developed which includes the question, explanation, digest, and description of anticipated financial effect. Arguments for and against passage will be presented separately to the Board.
30. Community Development - Planning
30.A For Possible Action: To adopt Bill No. 110, on second reading, an ordinance amending Title 18, Zoning, Chapter 18.02, Administrative Provisions, Section 18.02.045, Notice Of Commission Hearings; Section 18.02.060, Appeals; and Section 18.02.075, Zoning Map Amendments and Zoning Code Amendments, to increase the property owner notice radius for development applications reviewed by the planning commission based on project parcel size. (Lee Plemel, lplemel@carson.org)
Staff Summary: The current property owner notification requirement for applications heard by the Planning Commission is 300 feet from the boundaries of the property on which the project is located, regardless of the size of the project. The proposed amendment would increase the property owner notification radius based on the project parcel size, with larger parcels requiring larger notification radii.
30.B For Possible Action: To adopt Bill No. 111, on second reading, an ordinance to levy the Downtown Neighborhood Improvement District (NID) assessment for FY 2016-17 for the maintenance of the Downtown Streetscape Enhancement Project. (Lee Plemel, lplemel@carson.org)
Staff Summary: After adopting a Resolution confirming the Downtown NID assessment, the Board of Supervisors must introduce and adopt an ordinance to levy the assessment.
30.C For Possible Action: To approve a time extension for compliance with the conditions of approval for an Abandonment of Public Right-of-Way for Victor Honein (property owner: Mapp Enterprises, Inc., B P Hotel LLC, and M & M Bigue Investments LLC) to abandon a 66 foot wide and 170 foot long right-of-way on East Sophia St. between Carson St. and Plaza St., on property adjacent to 1017 N. Carson St., 1000 N. Plaza St. and 917 N. Carson St., APN’s 002-162-01, -02 and 002-163-04. (reference AB-15-050) (Hope Sullivan, hsullivan@carson.org)
Staff Summary: Pursuant to NRS 278.480 and CCMC Title 17, the applicant is proposing a one year time extension for compliance with the conditions of approval for an Abandonment of Public Right-of-Way, specifically East Sophia Street between Carson Street and Plaza Street. The Board of Supervisors conducted a public hearing on July 16, 2015, in conformance with the City and State legal requirements, and approved AB-15-050 based on conditions of approval. Condition 10 noted that the approval would expire one year after approval unless a time extension is granted by the Board of Supervisors.
30.D For Possible Action: To adopt a Resolution amending the maximum number of residential building permit allocations under the Carson City Growth Management Ordinance for the years 2017 and 2018 and estimating the maximum number of residential building permits for the years 2019 and 2020; establishing the number of residential building permit allocations available within the development and general property owner categories; and establishing a maximum average daily water usage for commercial and industrial building permits as a threshold for Growth Management Commission review. (Lee Plemel, lplemel@carson.org)
Staff Summary: The Board of Supervisors is required to annually establish the number of residential permits that will be available for the following calendar year in accordance with CCMC 18.12, Growth Management. This has historically been based upon a growth rate of three percent. A maximum of 640 residential permits are recommended by the Planning Commission for 2017. The commercial and industrial daily water usage threshold is recommended to be continued at 15,000 gallons per day, above which Growth Management Commission approval is required.
30.E For Possible Action: To introduce, on first reading, an ordinance amending Title 8, Public Peace, Safety And Morals, Chapter 8.10, Recreational Vehicle Parking, Sections 8.10.040, Definitions, and 8.10.050, Recreational Parking On Public Streets, to add utility trailers to the list of recreational vehicles for which on-street and off-street parking requirements apply and to limit on-street parking of recreational vehicles to specific periods for loading and unloading only. (Lee Plemel, LPlemel@carson.org)
Staff Summary: As it is currently written, CCMC 8.10.050 is difficult to legally enforce. The proposed ordinance will make modifications that will alleviate that concern and also make it easier for code enforcement to establish a method to track on-street RV parking time limits for enforcement purposes, meeting the original intent of the RV parking ordinance.
31. Human Resources
31.A For Possible Action: To establish the City Manager's goals and objectives for the performance review period, June 3, 2016 to June 1, 2017. (Melanie Bruketta, mbruketta@carson.org)
