March 16, 2021

Commissioner Cox

was present via telephone.

Commissioner Blundo

asked if the County was off of flagged status because of less testing and people getting vaccinated. Chief Lewis explained it was because the test positivity rate was reducing and was not based on the testing numbers. March 16, 2021

Commissioner Blundo

announced the Pahrump Holiday Task Force would hold the community Easter dinner on April 3, 2021, from 10:00 am. to 1:30 p.m. curbside pick up only at the Nye Communities Coalition. He told Tim Sutton he wanted to move forward and have a discussion on the resolution that was sent to the Commissioners. Lastly, Commissioner Blundo said Lincoln County would have an agenda item to support Nye County’s BDR to repeal the commerce tax as would Lyon County.

Commissioner Carbone

said a meeting had been set up to move forward with Title 6. Jail inspections would start shortly and he would attend a Tn-County Weed meeting on March 18, 2021.

Commissioner Strickland

said the last NACO meeting gave Commissioners the opportunity to represent their counties and she was honored to do so as a sitting board member of that. It was excellent and the counties were heard. Tim Sutton mentioned the round-up of the three horses that were hanging out at the Eye and said there were four new ones today that they were working on. He reminded the public to not approach them as they were wild animals. Also, the State was working on transitioning local control of management of the pandemic back to the counties and the criteria just came out today. Mr. Sutton said he was working on it and would keep the Board and the public advised.

Commissioner Blundo

made a motion to approve; seconded by Commissioner Carbone; 5 yeas. TIMED ITEMS

Commissioner Blundo

asked why the $4.1 million approved for the animal shelter was residing in the jail bond fund. Savannah Rucker explained there was a title name change that needed to occur. The fund was actually named bond proceeds and the resolution identified it was specific for bond proceeds and the administration of bond funded projects. She offered to send that resolution to Commissioner Blundo.

Mr. Prudhont

felt it was commingling of funds and he was concerned there was not a different fund number designating the separation of the funds.

Mrs. Rucker

explained the funds were separated by a project number. This funding was tied to a project number and all expenses tied to the shelter project would flow through that project separate from the other identified project, the one-stop shop. While it could be said the funds were collectively pooled in the bond proceeds fund, they were still executing the purposes of the bond proceeds approved projects by the Board of County Commissioners.

Commissioner Cox

said she would like to have something brought to the Commissioners to show the money going out so they could see a balance once a month. She also felt the money should be strictly allocated to the animal shelter. March 16, 2021

Commissioner Carbone

made a motion to have staff draft a letter of support for this activity; seconded by Commissioner Blundo; 5 yeas.

Commissioner Jabbour

asked if there was a reason why the judges did not have access to the qualifications and resumes of the attorneys being assigned. March 16, 2021 10. 10:00 a.m. For Possible Action Presentation, discussion and deliberation — — by the State of Nevada Department of Indigent Defense Services-Cont’d. Judge Jasperson said they had never been invited and were never asked their opinion. It was always the County Commission awarding contracts to attorneys.

Ms. Ryba

noted Regulation 24.1(b) said the process should exclude the prosecution and law enforcement officials. The board recommended creation of a selection committee made up of stakeholders concerned with the integrity of indigent defense services, which may include the Department. Judicial input into the hiring process may be considered, but it should not be the sole basis for the selection.

Commissioner Carbone

made a motion to direct staff to work with DIDS and develop the Nye County plan; seconded by Commissioner Jabbour.

Commissioner Blundo

mentioned the County Manager reviewing the plan and asked for some elaboration on that. Tim Sutton explained the former County Manager was in charge of approving the contracts. When he took over as County Manager his brother-in-law had and continued to have a contract for providing indigent services as a public defender. The first thing

Mr. Sutton

did was remove himself from the process altogether and delegated all responsibility for indigent services to Lorina Dellinger. That was not good enough however as Mrs. Dellinger was his subordinate so the ultimate authority shifted to the Board. Mr. Sutton stated he had not and would not have any involvement in this process.

Mrs. Dellinger

advised she would develop the plan based on the template from the State which would ultimately be brought to the Board to approve. She spoke with the judges and the plan would be distributed to the judges so they could review and comment. The Board would then be able to review that feedback and incorporate any suggestions they may have. Ammie Nelson felt this board came about because judges were not involved with the selection of public defenders. The County was now looking at having to hire other people for their specialties. She thought the County could do shortcuts on its own and invite the judges to be part of the identification of particular experience with attorneys. Pahrump Justice of the Peace Lisa Chamlee said she was available to assist with the creation of the County plan.

Commissioner Carbone

assumed the Chair of the Board of County Commissioners. March 16, 2021

Commissioner Strickland

disclosed she would not participate in this item as she was in competition since she owned Lakeside Storage.

Commissioner Blundo

Robert Adams provided an update on the activities of the Nuclear Waste and Environmental Advisory Committee, the Pahrump Public Lands Advisory Committee, and the Pahrump Off Highway Vehicle Park Advisory Committee. Tim Bohannon talked about tourism and the need to have good materials and information on the Web site. He wanted to get rid of the stigma that Nevada was only Las Vegas and Reno.

Commissioner Blundo

referred to the questions raised earlier in public comment and asked if it was publicly posted in Amargosa that there was an opening for this position. Sam Merlino explained the process was to advertise it in the paper and send that advertisement to the town boards. Her office did not post them at the post office or anything like that. She advised an application came in a couple of days late and the applicant also mentioned he was not aware of the vacancy. Mrs. Merlino said it was up to the Board’s discretion. Her office could advertise it again, but she pointed out they had tried for the past four months to get the vacancies filled and this was the last vacancy.

Commissioner Blundo

said he would entertain opening it up for another week and hear it at the Tonopah meeting because he thought there was another candidate. He also wanted to make sure things were done legally.

Commissioner Carbone

wanted to make sure there were compatible individuals. He did not want disruption on the board and he heard from another board member there would be disruption. If it could not function as a board regardless of other issues then the town was doomed. Commissioner Carbone said he had also heard talk of the elected town board being disbanded.

Commissioner Blundo

made a motion to open it for another two-week period and hear it at the next Pahrump meeting; seconded by Commissioner Jabbour.

Commissioner Jabbour

pointed out in two weeks the meeting would be in Tonopah.

Commissioner Blundo

clarified it would be a two-week application period and the Board should be able to hear it in 30 days. March 16, 2021 29. For Possible Action Discussion and deliberation to appoint one member to the Amargosa Valley Town Board due to one resignation from the following list of applicants: Patricia J. Minshall-Cont’d. Debra Mendyck agreed with the 30 days. She said there was a lot of dissention and there were people who wanted to apply that did not know about the vacancy.

Mrs. Merlino

said her office would get it in the paper and follow the deadlines to ensure it was on that agenda. Pat Minshall’s application would still be considered and she would not need to re-apply.

Commissioner Blundo

made a motion to open it for another two-week period and hear the item at the next Pahrump meeting; seconded by Commissioner Carbone. William Zimmerman stated his support of the motion. As chairman of the library board he said he had some concerns with the candidates and whether they adequately represented Pahrump.

Commissioner Carbone

said these projects were identified prior to him being on the Board so he would abstain.

Commissioner Blundo

asked if a sewer and wastewater system at the fairgrounds was needed or if the County could go right into the field lighting. Grants Administrator Samantha Kramer said prioritizing the applications was originally discussed in November. She brought this back because she would like to discuss re prioritizing. CDBG received $6 million in requests for the FY21 program and asked the County to review its prioritization of the applications submitted. Originally the field lighting was priority two. She requested that it be moved to priority four. There were currently four grants awarded for the Pahrump fairgrounds and it had been established that the sewer/wastewater system application would be prioritized first in the new round.

Mrs. Kramer

thought it would be beneficial to focus on the open award and the new application, and also allow a sponsored application to be prioritized. Tim Sutton clarified those $6 million of requests was for a pot of $3.5 million.

Commissioner Blundo

made a motion to prioritize the sewer/wastewater as number one, Tonopah Union Plaza as number two, the fairgrounds as number three, and the Hospital District as number four; seconded by Commissioner Cox.

Commissioner Strickland

asked to have the Pahrump fairgrounds field lighting moved to number four, the Union Plaza two and the Hospital District three. She thought more outreach was needed in the north. March 16, 2021 33. For Possible Action Discussion and deliberation to: 1) Prioritize the following applications for the FY21 Community Development Block Gant (CDBG) Program-Cont’d.

Commissioner Jabbour

felt the fairgrounds field lighting should be dropped to number four, the fairgrounds sewer and water should be kept as number one, and the Tonopah Union Center should be kept two and three in the order of sequence.

Commissioner Carbone

agreed with Commissioner Jabbour.

Commissioner Cox

withdrew her second; Commissioner Blundo withdrew his motion.

Commissioner Blundo

made a motion to have the Pahrump fairgrounds sewer and wastewater as number one, Tonopah number two, the Hospital District number three, and the field lighting as number four; seconded by Commissioner Carbone; 5 yeas. John Bosta asked what happened to the project for the senior citizens center in Am argo sa.

Mrs. Kramer

explained the senior center project was under the CDBG-CV program and that application process was still open. The discussion on this item was the CDBG annual program the County applied for every year.

Commissioner Blundo

advised he had spoken with the County Manager and wanted to do a test run with this position for one fiscal year. Tim Sutton said the Board could place that condition, but it might limit the pool of applicants.

Commissioner Blundo

made a motion to approve the additional full-time position titled Grants-Financial Analyst, fund 25% from General Fund 10101, 50% from Grants Fund 10340, and 25% from the Town of Pahrump General Fund 25101 and make the effective fill date April 5, 2021; seconded by Commissioner Jabbour. Savannah Rucker explained the goal was to have the position completely funded by the grants fund.

Commissioner Blundo

said he would like to see that happen next fiscal year. March 16, 2021 34. For Possible Action Discussion and deliberation regarding: 1) The request for an additional full-time permanent position for the Nye County Finance Department, position titled Grants-Financial Analyst; 2) Fund 25% from Nye County General Fund 10101, 50% from Nye County Grants Fund 10340, and 25% from Town of Pahrump General Fund 25101; and 3) Make the effective fill date for the position April 5, 2021-Cont’d. Tim Bohannon supported having the position.

Commissioner Carbone

made a motion to adopt the budget transfers as noted; seconded by Commissioner Blundo; 5 yeas. March 16, 2021

Commissioner Blundo

disclosed he was a business owner in Nye County and participated in the federal CARES Act through Nye County. Since this was a new program he did not believe that would preclude him from participating in this item, however, in an abundance of caution he would abstain from voting and recuse himself. He asked the District Attorney if he would still be able to participate in part two of the agenda item. Chris Arabia said there was a lot happening here and none of it had been brought to the attention of the District Attorney’s Office previously. There was concern and he did not want any of the Commissioners to do anything that would cause problems for them. Mr. Arabia asked for a five-minute recess. Savannah Rucker advised she had no update to make on that particular section of the agenda item as she had already discussed the budget update. After a brief recess Mr. Arabia advised the issue had been addressed. Tim Sutton said he spoke with Mrs. Rucker and part 2 of item 37 would be removed for not only this agenda but future ones as well. He explained it was Board directed at a previous meeting to combine the two items, but it would not be an issue moving forward. 4. Approval of the Agenda for March 16, 2021 (Non-action item)-Reopened. Tim Sutton said part 2 of item 37 could be removed from the agenda. 37. For Possible Action Presentation, discussion, deliberation and possible amendment of: 1) The 2021 Nye County COVID Relief Program and Policy utilizing remaining Federal CARES funding effective January 1, 2021 for the purpose of continuing financial assistance to the public, small businesses, non-profits, and government agencies located within Nye County affected by the COVID-19 Pandemic health emergency; and 2) Presentation and direction to staff regarding the current and future financial condition of Nye County as related to the COVID 19 outbreak-Reopened.

Commissioner Blundo

disclosed he was a Nye County business owner for the past 1 5 years in Pahrump. This item talked about utilizing remaining federal CARES, which he March 16, 2021 37. For Possible Action Presentation, discussion, deliberation and possible amendment of: 1) The 2021 Nye County COVID Relief Program and Policy utilizing remaining Federal CARES funding effective January 1, 2021 for the purpose of continuing financial assistance to the public, small businesses, non-profits, and government agencies located within Nye County affected by the COVID-19 Pandemic health emergency; and 2) Presentation and direction to staff regarding the current and future financial condition of Nye County as related to the COVID 19 outbreak-Reopened-Cont’d. was an applicant of, but this was a new program previously voted on and he believed he would be able to participate. However, in an abundance of caution he would abstain from voting and participate as a member of the public. Commissioner Blundo left the dais.

Commissioner Strickland

said she was also a business owner, but she was not participating in this program. Samantha Kramer advised the programs would open for applications on March 17, 2021. The applications could be found at nyecounty.net. Savannah Rucker said in the back-up was the Nye County COVID Relief Program, which included the several changes requested by Commissioners and staff. Also included as addendums were the grant agreements and affidavits to be approved by the Commissioners. On the second page of the back-up, at the end of the last sentence under eligible uses Mrs. Rucker wanted to add advertising costs will be charged to each program, the reason being the Commissioners had asked for extensive advertising and there was no department to charge that cost to. On the third page she wanted to add awarded applicants to the Nye County CARES Act working capital program will need to complete and close out that grant before being approved under the new program, the reason being not all businesses had submitted the back-up showing what the funds were used on for the previous program. That information was due to Finance by January 15, 2021, and the hope was that addition to this policy would encourage them to complete that previous grant. Mrs. Rucker said the next recommended change was on page 10 where the option for additional programs was left. There was a lot of discussion regarding how to use the funding and there was an issue with the Hospital District’s application which had been brought to the Commission for review. Also, there were other sub-entities that may be interested. She wanted to discuss if the Commissioners were interested in considering a program for sub-entities.

Commissioner Carbone

made a motion to add the advertising costs, the sub-entities, and the back-up for the prior grant applications; seconded by Commissioner Jabbour. Pat Minshall from Amargosa Valley asked if the town or the senior center had to put in another request for what they requested. March 16, 2021 37. For Possible Action Presentation, discussion, deliberation and possible amendment of: 1) The 2021 Nye County COVID Relief Program and Policy utilizing remaining Federal CARES funding effective January 1, 2021 for the purpose of continuing financial assistance to the public, small businesses, non-profits, and government agencies located within Nye County affected by the COVID-19 Pandemic health emergency; and 2) Presentation and direction to staff regarding the current and future financial condition of Nye County as related to the COVID 19 outbreak-Reopened-Cont’d.

Mrs. Rucker

said the town requested a generator, which would be applied for under CDBG-CV, but she would have to get back to Ms. Minshall on the other.

Mrs. Kramer

explained the applications were pending on the CDBG-CV program. If they decided not to move forward under that application process they could apply under the sub-entities program. Leo Blundo, speaking in his personal private capacity, asked the Board to consider not constraining individuals from the old program in this new program as he thought that would actually hurt people. He also asked the Board to consider not giving any more money to government sub-entities as he felt it should go out to the businesses that the County was trying to help. Melissa Blundo also thought the Board should reconsider not having another program for sub-entities and should be helping the people and businesses that were struggling.

Mrs. Rucker

asked if the Board would like to discuss the funding allocation plan. The last time it was discussed the Board just wanted one pot for all programs.

Commissioner Carbone

made a motion to amend the pool as follows: allocate $1 million to the small business grant; allocate $250,000.00 to the public rent and mortgage assistance business owner; allocate $100,000.00 to the public assistance administration; allocate $100,000.00 to not-profit and not-for-profit subgrant; and allocate $500,000.00 to direct utilities assistance.

Commissioner Carbone

pointed out that left $72,000.00 not spent and he was not sure where to put it. The Commissioners discussed different allocations of the funds, including sub-entities at $800,000.00.

Commissioner Carbone

amended his motion to allocate $1 million for the small business grant program; $250,000.00 to the public rent, mortgage, and utility assistance; $100,000.00 for public assistance administered by non-profit and not-for- March 16, 2021 37. For Possible Action Presentation, discussion, deliberation and possible amendment of: 1) The 2021 Nye County COVID Relief Program and Policy utilizing remaining Federal CARES funding effective January 1, 2021 for the purpose of continuing financial assistance to the public, small businesses, non-profits, and government agencies located within Nye County affected by the COVID-19 Pandemic health emergency; and 2) Presentation and direction to staff regarding the current and future financial condition of Nye County as related to the COVID 19 outbreak-Reopened-Cont’d. profits; $500,000.00 for direct utility assistance; $800,000.00 for sub-entities; and $81 ,523.00 for contingency; seconded by Commissioner Jabbour. Tim Bohannon asked about the homeless and what portion of this would help them, public assistance or non-profits.

Commissioner Carbone

said both as well as charities. Regarding the sub-entities program, Mrs. Kramer asked that the go live date be March 24, 2021, to allow a week to get the application process on-line.

Commissioner Jabbour

made a motion to kick off the sub-entity applications on March 24, 2021; seconded by Commissioner Carbone; 4 yeas. Commissioner Blundo abstained.

Mrs. Rucker

asked which sub-entity applications the Board would like to approve.

Commissioner Strickland

suggested applications over $100,000.00.

Commissioner Carbone

said he would like to make it almost nothing so the Board would make the decision.

Commissioner Carbone

made a motion that the Board would see all sub-entity applications; seconded by Commissioner Jabbour; 4 yeas. Commissioner Blundo abstained. March 16, 2021 HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Commissioner Blundo

made a motion to set the date and time for the public hearing on April 20, 2021, in the Board of County Commissioners chambers in Pahrump at 10:00 a.m.; seconded by Commissioner Carbone; 4 yeas.

Commissioner Blundo

asked if this item was one big bid for all of the different prices to go to the companies or would the Board choose one of them. March 16, 2021 42. For Possible Action Discussion and deliberation to: 1) Discuss the bid proposals received for Bid 2021 -01-Cont’d. Purchasing and Contracts Administrator Danielle McKee said the Board would choose one bidder. While NRS 332 outlined the lowest most responsive and responsible bidder should be selected, she explained in this situation the Board would select the highest as it was a receivables contract.

Commissioner Blundo

commented on the variances between the numbers.

Commissioner Carbone

asked if anyone in the recycling business was consulted as to the validity of the numbers.

Mrs. McKee

said Public Works reviewed the bid and the responses. All three bidders also inspected the scrap pile at the Tonopah landfill.

Commissioner Strickland

pointed out the County loading versus the vendor loading from SA Recycling.

Mrs. McKee

said Public Works expressed they wanted the contractor to do the loading. Also, Public Works wanted to get this out quickly because the cost of scrap metal right now was high but it would go down. Public Works Director Tim Dahl said they had kept an eye on the price of metals for at least a couple of years to wait for an opportunity like today to get rid of the large pile of scrap metal at the Tonopah landfill. This was the perfect opportunity to take advantage of the prices while they were up. The prices fluctuated very often and the prices on the agenda were locked in if the agreement could be entered into as soon as possible. Mr. DahI asked the Commissioners to award this to the company that would give the most amount for the material, which appeared to be SA Recycling.

Commissioner Jabbour

advised SA Recycling was a referral and had been vetted by Esmeralda County.

Commissioner Blundo

made a motion to award Bid No. 202 1-01 in the amounts written in the agenda item; seconded by Commissioner Jabbour. Tim Bohannon asked if there was oversight in the process to ensure that the poundage was correct for the different types of metals.

Mr. Dahl

said absolutely. Staff would be at the landfill supervising the contractor to ensure they were providing the County with weight tickets for the loads that went out. He said this company was reputable and he believed the County had used them in the past.

Commissioner Cox

was present. March 16, 2021 42. For Possible Action Discussion and deliberation to: 1) Discuss the bid proposals received for Bid 2021 -01-Cont’d.
