Carson City Board of Supervisors to discuss Complete Streets Project, Downtown Hardship at May 16 meeting
The upcoming Carson City Board of Supervisors meeting will be held May 16 beginning at 8:30 a.m. in the Sierra Room of the Community Center, located at 851 East William Street.
On the docket for discussion is the South Carson Complete Street Project, Hardship Determination for Downtown businesses, contracts, and more.
Discussion and possible action will take place regarding the approval of the 60 percent design for the South Carson Complete Streets Project, and if approved, will move onto the 90 percent design stage.
Within the topic of Community Development, a discussion and possible action will be held regarding Hardship Determination, related to the fiscal year 2020 Downtown Neighborhood Improvement District (NID) assessment for applicants meeting the required conditions, and directing the City Engineer to postpone the assessment for any approved Hardship Determination applicants in accordance with NRS 271.360.
The Downtown NID was established in 2016 for the purpose of paying a portion of the cost of ongoing maintenance of the Downtown Streetscape Enhancement Project. The Board of Supervisors must consider applications for Hardship Determinations before accepting the annual Downtown NID assessment role.
Property owners whose annual income is less than 50 percent of the median Carson City area annual income qualify for a Hardship Determination, according to the agenda.
Any complaint, protest or objection to the assessment will be discussed. All objections need to be filed in writing with the Clerk or Planning Division at least three days before the assessment hearing.
Following Hardship Determinations and all complaints, protests and objections to the Downtown NID assessment, the Board of Supervisors must confirm, correct, revise or set aside the proposed assessment by Resolution in accordance with NRS 271.385, according to the agenda.
A proposed Interlocal Agreement between Carson City and the Nevada Department of Transportation is not he table to discuss providing for the use of the Statewide Public Safety Radio Communications System for an amount not to exceed $5,076,000 for the initial ten-year term, and not to exceed $634,500 per year in the subsequent renewal terms.
According to the agenda:
“This agreement will allow Carson City to utilize the Statewide Public Safety Radio Communications System (Radio System) to reduce operational costs, improve interagency interoperability, enhance radio communication, and meet homeland security initiatives for radio communications. The operational costs will consist of an annual fee for unlimited air-time based on the number of City radios units registered and utilized on the Radio System. The coverage, capacity, and resiliency provided by the Radio System will significantly increase the City's communications capability and increase operational readiness. The agreement is for an initial term of ten years and will automatically renew for an additional ten years at the end of each term. The agreement may be terminated by either party with 30 days notice without cause.”
