consent section. Items not voted on in the Consent section may also be voted on in a separate block or blocks.

Items designated for a specified time will not be heard prior to the stated time but may be heard later. There

will be only one period of public comment on any block vote. Any public comment made during that period

may pertain to any of the items being voted on in the block, but there will not be separate public comment

periods for each item within the block.

Location. This meeting will be held at the physical location designated on this agenda, but one or more of the

County Commissioners and/or County staff may attend and participate by a remote technology system.

Members of the public wishing to attend the meeting may do so at the designated physical location or may

otherwise participate as stated in the Public Comment section. The Chair or their designee will make

reasonable efforts to ensure that members of the public body and members of the public present at the

physical location can hear or observe each member attending by remote technology system, and each member

of the public body in attendance can participate in the meeting.

Accessibility. Washoe County, in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, wishes to make all of its

Public Comment. Public comment is welcomed during public comment periods and is limited to 3 minutes per

person per public comment period. Unused time may not be allocated to other speakers. A speaker’s

viewpoint will not be restricted; however, reasonable restrictions may be imposed upon the time, place, and

manner of speech. Irrelevant statements, unduly repetitious statements, and personal attacks that would

objectively antagonize or incite others are examples of speech that may be reasonably limited. All comments

are to be directed to the Commission as a whole.

During the general public comment periods at the beginning and end of the meeting, speakers may address

any matter either on or off the agenda. Items voted on in the Consent section or in a separate block or blocks

shall have a single public comment period per block, and public comment will only be heard about the specific

items being considered by the Commission in the block. For the remainder of the agenda, during items

designated “for possible action” that are considered individually, public comment will only be heard about the

specific item being considered by the Commission. Members of the public that wish to share documents or

make a brief presentation within their public comment period must provide ten (10) printed copies of each

document. Please note that USB drives or any other digital media will not be accepted due to the risk of

introducing viruses or malicious code, which could potentially compromise the County’s systems.

Members of the public may also submit comments by mail (1001 E. Ninth St., Reno, NV 89512), by eComment

at https://washoe-nv.granicusideas.com/#. The County will make reasonable efforts to include all such

comments received by 4:00 pm one working day prior to the meeting in the record. Mail and eComment will

Forum Restrictions and Orderly Conduct of Business. The Board of County Commissioners carries out the

business of Washoe County and its residents during its meetings. The presiding officer may order a person be

removed if the person’s conduct or statements disrupt the order or safety of the meeting. Warnings about

disruptive conduct or comments may or may not be given prior to removal.

Responses to Public Comments. The Board of County Commissioners may only deliberate or take action on

matters that have been properly labeled “for possible action” and listed on a properly noticed Agenda. While

the Open Meeting law allows discussion of public comments by members of the Commission, responses to

matters not listed on the agenda could become deliberation without notice to the public. To avoid this

situation and to ensure the public has proper notice of all matters, members may choose not to respond to

public comments, except to correct factual inaccuracies, ask for staff to provide information, or ask that the

matter be listed on a future agenda for consideration.

Pursuant to NRS 241.020, the Agenda for the Board of County Commissioners has been posted at the following

We begin by acknowledging that we gather today on the ancestral homelands of the Waší·šiw (Washoe), Numu

(Northern Paiute), Newe (Western Shoshone), Nuwu (Southern Paiute), and Pipa Aha (Mojave), the original

caretakers of the land that we now call Nevada. Washoe County, formally named after the Washoe people in

1861, continues to be a gathering place and home for Indigenous Peoples, and we recognize their rich history

and deep connections to these lands. May we honor their past, present, and future stewardship by

remembering that the health of the land and its people are inextricably linked.

10:00 a.m.

Salute to the flag.

Roll call.
