More twists and turns for the Nugget Project
Submitted by Kirk Caraway on Wed, 08/25/2010 - 7:29amIt's a bit of a challenge to follow the story out today about what's happening with the Carson City Center/Nugget Project.
It starts out saying that Nugget President Steve Neighbors is "encouraged" by the response from the governor's office, after meeting with them to discuss their concerns about the state's role in the project. Those concerns were expressed in a letter from the governor's Deputy Chief of Staff Lynn Hettrick last month.
But later on in today's story, Hettrick said the same issues about providing sufficient space for the Department of Health and Human Services and parking remain. I detailed how this affects the project here, and ran the numbers to show how the state office component of the plan doesn't pencil out.
