On Jan. 8, 2026, at 7 a.m., Carson City will be migrating from the carson.org domain to carsoncity.gov. All emails will also be migrating to @carsoncity.gov by Jan. 1. The .gov domain is reserved for official U.S. government organizations. These changes aim to avoid confusion, build trust and strengthen public confidence when messages are communicated.

The .gov domain has strict federal verification and security standards, reducing the risk of impersonation or fraud. Adopting a .gov domain aligns the City with other municipalities, counties, and federal agencies, presenting a unified and professional identity.

It creates consistency across websites, emails, and services, reinforcing the City’s credibility. At the same time, it positions the City to meet future compliance requirements and easily expand secure online services.

For questions or more information about the migration to carsoncity.gov, call (775) 887-2100 or email carsonit@carsoncity.gov.
