Carson City Supervisors are tackling a full list of items today.
In addition to the big item of the day, the proposed City Hall and Garage projects which we covered below, items include:
Nearly $3 million in vehicle and heavy equipment purchases, along with a $594,288 workforce development grant for the Carson City Library and agreements involving Mental Health Court and Western Nevada College nursing students.
See more on the City Hall item here:
The Carson City Board of Supervisors meeting began at 8:30 a.m. in the Robert “Bob” Crowell Board Room at the Carson City Community Center, 851 E. William St. The agenda also includes separate items involving the proposed new city hall and downtown development.
Among the largest expenditures before the board is a request to authorize the purchase of 15 vehicles for several city departments for up to $1.47 million. The vehicles would be purchased through existing contracts with Michael Hohl Motor Co., Capital Ford and Caterpillar Inc.
Supervisors are also considering spending up to $1.38 million for a TANA landfill compactor for the Carson City Landfill.
Both purchases are on the board’s consent agenda, meaning they can be approved with other routine items in a single vote unless a supervisor asks to pull one for separate discussion.
The Carson City Library is seeking approval for an additional $594,288 from the Governor’s Office of Economic Development to continue career training, advancement and exploration services through September 2027.
The additional funding would bring the total contract to about $2.07 million. No local matching funds are required.
Also before supervisors is a two-year agreement between Carson City Justice and Municipal Court and the state Division of Public and Behavioral Health’s Rural Clinics Administration.
Under the agreement, Rural Clinics would provide case management for participants in Carson City’s Mental Health Court at no cost to the city. The agreement would run retroactively from July 1 through June 2028.
Carson City Health and Human Services is also seeking approval of a five-year agreement with Western Nevada College allowing nursing students to receive clinical education and training with the department under WNC faculty supervision. No money would be exchanged under the agreement.
Other consent items include correcting errors on seven aircraft personal property tax accounts and issuing a combined $338.91 in refunds, along with the city’s routine report on fund balances, receipts and expenditures.
Following the Board of Supervisors meeting, members will reconvene as the Carson City Board of Health.
The Board of Health is scheduled to hear from Partnership Douglas County about plans to establish a substance use disorder prevention coalition in Carson City and programs the organization already operates in the city.
Members will also receive reports on the 2025-26 influenza season, environmental health activities during 2025 and recent activities of the city health officer and Carson City Health and Human Services. Those items are for discussion only.
