Genoa, Nev. — County commissioners approved Thursday a moratorium on new vacation home rentals while staff works on the ordinance. There are 531 current permits and another 65 in process, prompting a cap of 600 permits.


Another wreck involving a semi snarled Highway 395 at Riverview around 4:45 p.m. Thursday. There was no report of injuries and the road was closed for about 20 minutes.


There were six new cases of coronavirus reported in Douglas County and four recoveries. Starting next Wednesday agricultural and food processing workers become eligible for the vaccine. You can go to gethealthycarsoncity.org to learn more.
