Genoa, Nev. — No one turned out to comment on the approval of the trash rate increase approved by Gardnerville on Tuesday night. They re-read a comment they got on the issue back in May into the record. Both Gardnerville and Minden operate their own trash service as enterprise funds, which means they have to support themselves.
Genoans will discuss parking issues on Mill and Nixon streets and possibly picking the art for the 2021 Candy Dance poster. The Town Board meets 5:30 p.m. today in the Genoa Town Hall.
They’ll be talking pavilions in Minden 5:30 p.m. today at the CVIC Hall on Esmeralda Avenue. The town board will discuss projects for pavilions at Jakes Wetlands and at Westwood Park. Also the visitor’s authority is proposing more wayfinding signage.
The price tag for extinguishing the Tamarack Fire is up to $26.4 million as the Type 1 Incident Command decamped from Douglas High School. The Sierra Front command team has set up camp at the Douglas County Fairgrounds as the fire is 82 percent contained at 68,696 acres. Seven hand crews and eight engines are working the fire today.
The fire weather watch has yielded to a red flag warning for Thursday for low humidity and gusty southwest winds 15-20 mph, hitting up to 30 mph, increasing to 40 mph in the evening. The flag is up 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., so please be careful with anything that might cause a spark.
Today expect sunny skies with the high up near 97 degrees, the wind will pick up to 10-15 mph in the afternoon.
