Supervisors on Thursday will consider approving an amended agreement between the city and the Boys & Girls Clubs of Western Nevada for the purchase of property along Russell Way to build an indoor recreation center.
The Parks and Recreation Department is recommending the new agreement for the MAC, or multi-purpose athletic center, so that it more closely reflects the changes to the project from a recreation center to a scaled-back athletic center.
Supervisors also will consider abandoning the idea of a joint use agreement between the two entities, and instead could move ahead with a facility rental agreement.
Officials also are scheduled to discuss or take action to:
• Accept the recommendation of the Open Space Committee to apply for a grant to develop a trail connector between the Empire Ranch Trail and Riverview Park.
• Hear a presentation on a skills and competency survey which could be used to evaluate city staff.
• Adopt on a second reading an ordinance amending water, sewer and drainage, solid waste management and landfill rates.
• Reject a bid from Herback General Engineering for construction of Carson River Park Phase 2A, Carson River Road.
• Accept a bid from Horizon Construction, Inc. for construction of Carson River Park Phase 2A, Carson River Road.
• Present a proclamation designating Colonial Heritage Month for October.
