Previous applications ZC-2019-000042 was recommend for approval and heard by the BOCC and was approved. CU-2020-000092 and a waiver were denied by the RPC. The item was appealed to the BOCC at the 6/16/2020 meeting under AP-2020-000025 and the board voted to uphold the RPC decision. The Master Plan Survey is completely online and has been extended to 7/31. As of Monday, we have 91 responses in addition to the 61 prior to going fully online. If you go to the Nye County website and select feedback it will give you current numbers on what selection responses have been to date. At the last RPC meeting Commissioner Koenig brought up while we discussed whether or not we can cancel a meeting without scheduling it, the NRS states the commission shall hold at least one regular meeting a month. Several different counties in Nevada have stated as a consensus, that when a meeting is posted and scheduled, and it gets closer to the meeting they cancel the meeting if there is no need to have it. If we do need to cancel the meeting, we have the option to do so. However, the minutes do have to the presented and approved. So, they can’t cancel two meetings in a row.
Commissioner Koenig
asked if Mr. Waggoner can get a reading on the meeting cancellation by Michelle in the DA’s office. Michelle Nelson from the DA’s office stated she believes Mr. Waggoner is correct, but she will double check for them tomorrow.
Commissioner Curtis
asked Mr. Waggoner about the Silverton Hotel at the racetrack, and if any progress has been made.
Mr. Waggoner
stated at this point no applications have been submitted, he does know they are working with NDOT on the roundabout they are proposing for the entrance. He has spoken to Russ Meads and they are expecting to submit something very soon.
Commissioner Koenig
stated it is his understand that because of COVID we won’t see anything till next year.
Commissioner Curtis
asked if they do start, will it be with the road alignment first.
Mr. Waggoner
stated he doesn’t know the answer to that. Ex Parte Communications and Conflict of Interest Disclosure Statements None. Future Meetings/Workshops: Discussion and _ Direction Concerning Items for Future Meetings/Workshops; Set Date, Location and Time. The next RPC meeting will be August 12" at 6:00 pm and will be held as a teleconference until further notice due to the social distancing of staff and board members. Page 3 of 4
Commissioner Koenig
stated they do it as the BOCC but the RPC has 7 and they would have to try and space them properly.
Mr. Waggoner
stated a concern is when a BOCC meeting is held it is during the day, staff is available. The RPC is in the evening and we are limited with salary employees and to avoid additional expenses with overtime it should be taken into consideration.
Commissioner Lee
stated it is in our best interest to continue as a teleconference.
Commissioner Turner
asked if the workshop gets extended another month can the survey be extended as well.
Mr. Waggoner
stated if the next meeting with the public in attendance is October, he has no problem extending it, he just needs ample time to assemble the data.
Mr. Waggoner
asked Commissioner Lee if the determination by the DA’s office responds with information on the meetings, would they want an agenda item on to discuss further. We do have applications next month as well.
Commissioner Waggoner
asked Ms. Nelson if the minutes are action items for public comment.
