It's Your City with Carson City Mayor Bob Crowell
Carson City Mayor Bob Crowell provides an update on the actions taken by the Board of Supervisors at its Thursday, Aug. 7 meeting.
But before that Crowell addresses the success of the NV 150 Fair held at Fuji Park in Carson City earlier this month. He offers thanks to the countless volunteers, 4-H groups, FFA, city employees, as well as the efforts of the Carson City Chamber of Commerce who helped sponsor the event as well as Casino Fandango, which allowed fair participants to park and shuttle to and from the fairgrounds.
Estimates are being done to determine how many people came to the fair and the impact it had in the community and local motels and hotels. Those numbers will be available next month.
In other news, Crowell address the recent news that Carson City has reached a conceptual agreement with the Nevada Humane Society, Nevada’s first and most highly regarded animal welfare group, in a new partnership to lead Carson City’s Animal Services, to include adoptions, shelter, and regulation services. It will be a no-kill shelter.
This public/private relationship will enable Carson City to provide its citizens expanded levels of service and further expand Northern Nevada’s leadership position in animal stewardship.
"I think it is a great move for our city, our animals, and hopefully meets with approval from our residents," said Crowell.
He also noted the Carson City sales tax is up 7.8 percent in May this year as compared to May 2013. It means that our retail shops, existing and new stores are doing better in sales, he said.
