Watch it Live: Carson City Board of Supervisors
The Carson City Board of Supervisors meet today beginning at 8:30 a.m. in the Sierra Room of the Carson City Community Center.
Among the items up for discussion is the board's direction as to whether it wants to allow medical marijuana establishments in the city.
The "Medical Marijuana Act," was adopted by the Nevada Legislature and signed into law in 2013. The Medical Marijuana Act authorizes establishments in Nevada, but gives local jurisdictions the right to opt out or, if they opt in, to regulate the location of medical marijuana establishments through zoning and business license requirements.
City staff was directed by the Board of Supervisors to draft an ordinance that allows for such facilities in certain zoning districts subject to certain regulatory standards.
The item will come before the board at around 2 p.m.
In other action the board will:
— Decide whether to approve the Parks and Recreation Commission's recommendation to allocate up to $30,000 from the Quality of Life Initiative (Question 18) Parks Capital, Undesignated Projects Fund to partner with the Redevelopment Authority and the Nevada Commission on Tourism to fund Phase 1 of the Carson City Fairgrounds/Fuji Park Directional and Event Banner Sign Project.
Carson City has been awarded a $20,000 grant from the Nevada Commission on Tourism (NCOT) for a directional/event banner sign at the Fairgrounds/Fuji Park Complex. The $20,000 from the Redevelopment Revolving Fund is requested to match the NCOT grant. The estimated cost for Phase one of sign construction is $70,000.
