Mr. Hohen, may I have a roll call, please? Supervisor Giaomi. Supervisor White, Supervisor Horton, Supervisor Shuddy. Mayor Bagwell. You have your quorum. Thank you so much. We'll start with our invitation this morning. And I see that uh Pastor Hodge is here. Please start us off with something great today. Let's pray. Father, you have told us that you have required us to love mercy, to act justly, and to walk humbly before you. And we pray this morning for our officials before us that you would give them wisdom and the courage to choose the things that are good. Lord, we pray uh over our city and over its people that you would teach us more and more to love kindness and to care for each other. And that in all things we would walk humbly before you and each other, seeking the good of our neighbor before our own good, and in doing so, when the whole city does it, finding that each of us are cared for. Thank you so much. Okay, we're on opening public comment. I have three listed. And I wrote this this morning, so bear with me. Okay, for interest three fifty-four. Fund for extraordinary maintenance repair or improvement of capital projects. A local government may establish a fund for the extraordinary maintenance repair or improvement of capital projects. Okay, so my question, I'm not going to read it because you all have a copy. I would like clarification from the city about the extraordinary fund. The NRS does not list that the fund may be used for capital projects or facilities. I think this means that the NRS does not allow the funds to be used for new construction, which would be a capital improvement, because in the wording of it, it does say that the fund may only be used for the extraordinary maintenance, repair, or improvement of capital projects or facilities that replace capital projects of the entity that made the deposits in the fund. So I'd like you to clarify for me. Does the city think they can use it for new construction? And two, why has the city been using this fund for much needed? Why has not the city been using this fund for much needed maintenance, repairs, and improvements of city facilities? Thank you. Thank you. I have Ron and Teresa Jones. Good morning, Mayor Bagwell, members of the Carson City Board of Supervisors and City staff. My name is Teresa Jones, and I'm speaking today on behalf of myself, my husband, and numerous neighbors affected by an ongoing residential parking nuisance in our neighborhood. We appreciate the opportunity to address the board this morning. We are here today to respect respectfully request consideration of amendment to the Carson City Municipal Code 102490, parking for certain purposes prohibited, to include an additional provision addressing a chronic residential parking nuisance. Conduct by one resident at 233 Albany Avenue is impacting numerous other residents. Residents living on Albany Avenue and West 4th Street. The packet provided contains four documents. First, a letter to the board detailing the ongoing hostile and retaliatory conduct by the resident at 233 Albany. We'll be mailing the letter with signatures to the board early next week. Second, proposed amendment language two for Carson City Municipal Code 102490. Third, map and description of the habitual nuisance parking by the resident at 233 Albany. Fourth, photographic documentation illustrating the pattern of hostile and intimidating conduct that neighbors have been experiencing over the past four years. The proposed code amendment is not intended to restrict lawful guest parking, temporary overflow parking, contractors, caregivers, deliveries, or other ordinary residential parking. Its purpose is to address repeated and unreasonable conduct in which an individual persistently shifts parking burden onto neighboring properties despite available parking in front of and on their own property. We believe the proposed ordinance language provides a balanced and enforceable approach by establishing clear thresholds for repeated conduct requiring parking of the vehicle at the owner's residence, i.e. on property or in front of, providing reasonable exemptions for legitimate circumstances, utilizing complaint-driven enforcement procedures, and importantly, treating habitual displacement parking as a neighborhood nuisance issue rather than a simple parking preference dispute. The photographs included in the packet represent a small portion of the extensive photo and video documentation taken by neighborhood residents, which are available to the board upon request.
