Independent investigative news

Welcome to Nye's Lies

We report on Nye County: the meetings, the money, the water, and what your county government does with all of it.

Everything under Nye County government and resources in the menu is public record, organized so you can actually use it: every meeting and agenda, every bill before the county, water rights, campaign money, what every county employee is paid, and where the budget goes. Dig around. It is all yours.

This is new, and it runs on new software, so it will not be perfect yet. Where the county has posted minutes, the words and names are the clerk's. Where it has not, the words are our transcription of the county's video, made by software: it can mishear a word, a name or a number, and speakers are shown as letters, not names. Please double check anything you rely on against the minutes and the recording, which are linked on every page.

Right now it covers 13 meetings, from May 24, 2016 to March 4, 2026: 13 from the county's minutes with the speaker named, and 0 from our own transcript of the recording, where the county has not posted minutes yet and speakers are not named. More are coming.

No upcoming meeting is on any calendar yet. 38 past meetings indexed, with 38 agendas, 17 sets of minutes and 26 recordings.

Reviews proposals by local governments in the county to take on debt. Short meetings, long consequences.
