This is a possible discussion, possible action regarding a recommendation that the Board of Supervisors Board submit to the Nevada legislature a proposed amendment to Article 2, Section 2.050 of the Carson City Charter relating to the frequency of required monthly meetings of the board and the rescheduling of regular meetings that fall on non-judicial day. Cameron. Thank you, Chair. Um so the committee will remember uh our discussion from our February 12th meeting regarding the meeting frequency provision discussed herein um allowing the board to hold at least one regular meeting per month as counties are afforded the same privilege in NRS. What is new here and which is the product of um our discussions here at the committee level uh is some new language and you'll see that on page 11 of your packet uh is the updated charter amendment. Um if a regular meeting that is fixed by ordinance falls on a holiday or on a non-judicial day, the meeting may be held on another business day if the minimum public notice requirements set forth in NRS Chapter 241 are satisfied. That's what's new in the amendment that's in front of you. Um it is noted in the staff report in your packet that a corresponding Carson City Municipal Code update would be needed in order to square a charter amendment of this kind with the municipal code. That's been provided for you on page 10, but it is page 11, the charter amendment itself that the committee is reviewing today. Um the uh ordinance uh or excuse me, the the provision allowing for the uh next non-judicial day or a meeting that is not the next non-judicial day, that just gives the board more uh I would say freedom to reschedule uh meetings without it being just automatically the next judicial day. That's that's pretty rigid and doesn't give the board any kind of discretion in rescheduling meetings. So this way, if a regular meeting would need to be rescheduled, the board has more than one option when doing so in terms of picking the day. And that extra flexibility will also lend itself to the efficiency of government described in the uh staff report you have in front of you. And I and District Attorney Pruitt are available for questions at this point, but that is a brief overview of what you have in front of you on page 11. Thank you.
