9.A For Possible Action: Discussion and possible action regarding ratification of the submission of a grant application to the Nevada Division of Forestry requesting $90,000 from the Hazardous Fuels-Community Protection Grant Program. (Ann Bollinger, abollinger@carson.org)

Staff Summary: With a last minute announcement from the Nevada Division of Forestry regarding available grant funds from the recently approved Farm Bill, staff responded quickly by submitting a cover letter stating an interest in receiving funds for fuel reduction in the upper area of Kings Canyon. The proposed area is property managed by the Open Space Division and lies adjacent to private lands and U.S. Forest Service lands in which other fuel reduction projects have been implemented.

15. Fire

15.A For Possible Action: Discussion and possible action regarding the Carson City Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) Revision. (Sean Slamon, sslamon@carson.org)  Late Material

Staff Summary: The Emergency Operations Plan must be reviewed at a minimum of every five years or when a new senior elected or appointed official takes office, to comply with State requirements. We have both newly elected and appointed officials within the City. The Letter of Promulgation will need signatures from the Mayor and the Board of Supervisors signifying their approval.

15.B For Possible Action: Discussion and possible action regarding approval of the Quad County Multi-Agency Coordination Guide. (Sean Slamon, sslamon@carson.org)

Staff Summary: This guide reflects the collaboration among Carson City, Douglas County, Lyon County, and Storey County, collectively referred to as the Quad County, and how these counties will work together to respond effectively to emergencies and disasters of a larger scale. With Board approval, the letter of intent will be signed by the City Manager.

16. Public Works

16.A For Possible Action: Discussion and possible action on Resolution No. 2019-____, superseding and revoking Resolution No. 1971-R-5, which outlines the maintenance agreement between Carson City and Douglas County whereby Carson City maintains a portion of Center Drive within Douglas County. (Lucia Maloney, Lmaloney@carson.org)

Staff Summary: Resolution No. 1971-R-5 was adopted in 1971 to formalize the maintenance responsibilities of Center Drive, which were assumed by Carson City at its sole cost. As proposed, the adoption of Resolution No. 2019-____ will supersede and revoke Resolution No. 1971-R-5 and revert responsibilities of repair, maintenance, and upkeep of Center Drive within Douglas County back to Douglas County.

16.B For Possible Action: Discussion and possible action regarding approval and adoption of a proposed policy to implement aesthetic requirements and procedures for small cell equipment installation on poles and street lights located in the City rights-of-way and to give limited authorization to the Director of Public Works or his or her designee to update the policy as needed. (Dan Stucky, DStucky@carson.org and Stephanie Hicks, SHicks@carson.org)

Staff Summary: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) issued an order on September 27, 2018, which described specific standards for states’ or localities’ fees in connection with certain types of wireless facility deployments, addressed requirements relating to wireless facilities’ aesthetic impact and related concerns, and set a time frame within which applications for installations on existing infrastructure must be processed. The Order acknowledged that “some localities will require some time to establish and publish aesthetics standards,” and therefore the Order’s aesthetics standards will not take effect until April 15, 2019, 180 days after the FCC order was published in the Federal Register on October 15, 2018.

17. Finance

17.A For Possible Action: Discussion and possible action regarding adoption of a resolution renaming the enterprise fund currently known and referenced in City documents as the "Stormwater Fund" as the "Stormwater Utility Fund", the "Sewer Fund" as the "Wastewater Utility Fund", and the "Water Fund" as the "Water Utility Fund." (Sheri Russell, srussell@carson.org)

Staff Summary: The Carson City Board of Supervisors may rename an enterprise fund by resolution which describes the purpose of the fund, the resources to be used to establish the fund and the sources to be used to replenish the fund. Fund 505, an enterprise fund, was established in 2001, and Fund 510 and Fund 520, enterprise funds, were established prior to 1951 when the City and County were separate entities. At that time, the use of the term "Sewer Fund" to reference Fund 510 was appropriate. Today, however, the Sewer Fund actually relates to a wide variety of functions, including Sewerage, Wastewater Treatment and Effluent Water Management. Therefore, staff requests the designation of a more accurate name for the fund - the "Wastewater Fund" - because the term "wastewater" encompasses sewer, wastewater treatment and effluent. Concurrently, the addition of the term "Utility" to each of the funds is requested as these three funds are often referred to singularly and collectively as the "Utility" Funds.
