12.    Purchasing and Contracts

 12.A   For Possible Action:  To approve the purchase of various components of hardware and software through joinder contracts with Insight Public Sector, ConvergeOne, Inc./Cisco, Dell, CDW Government LLC,  Microsoft and SHI International Corporation, for a total annual amount not to exceed $1,000,000 to be funded from various city accounts as approved in the FY 18-19 budget.  (Carol Akers, cakers@carson.org and Eric Von Schimmelmann, Evonschimmelmann@carson.org) 

Staff Summary:  Each year the vendor contracts that the Information Technology Department relies on to perform a majority of the purchases of hardware, software, and services for City departments are brought to the Board of Supervisors for approval. While many of the individual purchases and projects are not significant, when aggregated over the course of the year, they are significant.  The City will receive better pricing by joining these contracts than it would receive if it were to decline to join these contracts because the City will be joining larger nation-wide contracts which typically receive lower pricing than smaller jurisdictions.

(Lee Plemel, lplemel@carson.org)

Staff Summary: The Board of Supervisors has directed staff to explore building impact fees for new development, specifically for fire facilities and streets. Impact fees and the processes to implement an impact fee are regulated under NRS Chapter 278B, which requires the creation of a Capital Improvements Advisory Committee to make recommendations to the Board of Supervisors regarding proposed impact fees, the capital improvement plans to which the impact fees would apply, and the land use growth assumptions upon which an impact fee would be based. The establishment of the Capital Improvements Advisory Committee is the first step in the process to explore the feasibility of development impact fees. 

 13.E   For Possible Action: To appoint one representative from the development or building industry and one representative from the real estate industry to the Capital Improvements Advisory Committee. (Lee Plemel, lplemel@carson.org)

Staff Summary:  The Capital Improvements Advisory Committee ("Committee") is established to make recommendations to the Board of Supervisors regarding proposed impact fees, the capital improvement plans to which the impact fees would apply, and the land use growth assumptions upon which an impact fee would be based. The Planning Commission serves as the Committee, with the addition of one member from the development or building industry and one representative from the real estate industry. The Nevada Builders Alliance has nominated Rob McFadden, Builders Alliance President, and the Sierra Nevada Association of Realtors has nominated realtor Stephen Lincoln to serve on the Committee.

 13.G   For Possible Action: To introduce, on first reading, an ordinance amending Title 18 Appendix (Development Standards), Division 4 (Signs), Sections 4.3 (Definitions) and 4.4 (Administration) of the Carson City Municipal Code to amend regulations related to temporary banners, flags, A-frame signs and other temporary sign devices, and to modify the definition of “frontage of building” to make the method of measurement of allowable sign area consistent between shopping centers and other commercial uses. (Lee Plemel, lplemel@carson.org)

Staff Summary: The Board of Supervisors provided general direction to staff on May 17, 2018, regarding possible changes to regulations pertaining to the use of temporary banners, flags, and A-frame sign for commercial advertising. Currently, banners and freestanding flags are permitted for up to 30 days in any 90-day period, and A-frame signs are prohibited except within the downtown area. The proposed changes, as recommended by the Planning Commission, include restrictions related to “promotional flags,” and allowing A-frame signs adjacent to all businesses. Also, the definition of “frontage of building” is being modified to create consistency in the way permitted sign area is measured for commercial uses.
