CARSON CITY – Gov. Brian Sandoval said today he will propose to extend a package of taxes now set to expire in June 2013 into the next budget to avoid further cuts to education, which he said cannot withstand further reductions.

To maintain a basically flat spending plan for the two-year budget that will begin on July 1, 2013, Sandoval said the modified business tax that was maintained at a higher rate for large businesses in the 2011 legislative session, along with a small increase in the sales tax, must be continued.

Dennis Johnson filed this afternoon as a candidate for Carson City Supervisor Ward 2, joining Brad Bonkowski and Maurice White in a battle to replace current Supervisor Shelly Aldean, who decided not to run after 10 years on the board. Liz Teixeira has also declared that she plans to run.

Johnson is one of the main forces behind the Nugget Project petition effort to put the question of whether to go forward with the City Center Project up for a public vote.

There are also two candidates who have filed so far for the three Carson City School Board seat up for election this year. Steve Reynolds has filed for reelection in District 5, and Joe Cacioppo, Jr. is running for the District 7 seat held now by Joanna Wilson, who is termed out. No one has declared yet for the District 2 seat currently held by James Lemaire.
