8-2. Finance

Action to accept the report on the condition of each fund in the treasury through November 22, 2010 per NRS 251.030. (Nick Providenti)

Staff Summary: NRS 251.030 requires the Finance Director (for the purpose of the statute acting as the County Auditor) to report to the Board of County Commissioners (or in our case the Board of Supervisors), at each regular meeting thereof, the condition of each fund in the treasury. A "Statement of Cash Receipts and Disbursements" indicates the beginning balance, receipts, disbursements, and the ending balance of each cash account for every fund in the City as of November 22, 2010. It is important to note that there will always be timing differences with these balances - for example while all departments take deposits to the bank on a daily basis, revenue reports are only prepared twice a month and there is usually a lag time between when the reports are prepared and when they are entered into the system.

8-3. Purchasing and Contracts

Staggered two year terms are served by two members of the Board of Supervisors and three representatives of the city-at-large.

12. Airport Authority

Action to consider legislative changes proposed by the Carson City Airport Authority regarding eligibility for appointment to the Airport Authority Board.  (Steve Tackes)

The Airport Authority has secured a legislative sponsor for the proposed bill and is not seeking use of a City bill draft request.

13. Public Works - Planning and Zoning

A) Action to introduce, on first reading, an ordinance amending the Carson City Municipal Code Title 18, Zoning, Chapter 18.16, Development Standards, Division 4, Signs, Section 4.4.7, Administration, Exceptions, to modify the regulations relating to the display of temporary banners and other temporary sign devices, and other matters properly related thereto. (ZCA-10-095) (Lee Plemel)

Summary: An ordinance was adopted in January 2009 and renewed in 2010 to temporarily eliminate time limits on banners for a period of one year in order to allow commercial businesses more advertising alternatives during difficult economic conditions. The ordinance expires at the end of 2010 and a new ordinance must be adopted to continue the same temporary sign provisions or modify them.

B) Action to authorize a Request for Proposals for Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDO's) to submit proposals for the construction, sale and monitoring of a single-family residence on Carson City property located at 1180 Palo Verde Drive, APN 004-141-05, to develop affordable housing for a family whose income at the time of application for such housing does not exceed 80 percent of the median gross income for families in Carson City pursuant to the provisions of NRS 244.287. (Lee Plemel)

Summary: The subject lot is approximately 7,800 square feet in size, located on a residential street with existing houses on either side, and is adjacent to Mills Parks. The property previously contained a City well, which has been abandoned. The proposed action would allow the construction of one single-family home on the property.

C) Action to determine that City property located on Karin Drive, APN 4-374-01, approximately 3,900 square feet in size, is not desired for use by the City and as a result of its size is too small to establish an economically viable use by anyone other than a person who owns real property adjacent to it pursuant to NRS 268.061(1)(e), and direct staff to initiate a sale of the property to the adjacent property owner. (Lee Plemel)

Summary: The subject lot was offered as a City park site as part of the Sunland Vista Subdivision approval. However, the remnant parcel is isolated from other park property within the subdivision and is not intended to be developed as park property. Approval of this action would allow the adjacent property owner to purchase the lot and incorporate it into their existing residential lot.
