4:25 – 6:28Speaker 2

Thank you. Suprabatham. Veendum nyan, Terry Brooks. Innu nyan vivejanathinde kaarithil samskarathiyum vidyabhyasathiyum kurichulla ende avadharanam pangidunnu.

Some people in some cultures and some people in other cultures appreciate diversity more than they appreciate diversity. Those who show diversity try to prevent others from accepting things that help them develop. Everyone appreciates diversity. No one appreciates diversity. People of different cultures have learned different things, and that is the benefit of diversity. They learned a lot of things from time spent spending time in different situations and situations. They learned the processes of discrimination, which became a major factor in the matter of discrimination. Today, many colleges are offering classes abroad to students. There, they can learn from other cultures by studying abroad. When we interact with other cultures, we become stronger together. When we learn from other cultures, we become stronger together. When we pay attention to each other, when we do that, we see that it opens all our minds. By paying attention to each other, not only do we learn, but by doing so, we learn how to study. I would like to thank all of you for listening to me today. If you have learned what I have to say, I would like to come again. Thank you.

Thank you. Mark Flanagan.

6:40 – 9:31Speaker 2

Commissioners, record in 3005 Mark Flanagan, precinct. A small fire. Some fire statistics. In 2018, the Martin fire burned 4,30,000 acres. In 2012, the Holloway fire burned 4,60,000 acres. Recent fires burned 4,80,000 acres. There are 190 schools in Washoe County. In the school I was looking at, I did not see the Renault Satanic. There are 1,18,000 Catholics in Washoe County. 19,000 Mormons, 21,000 non-denominational Christians, 7,000 Jews, 606,500 Southern Baptists, and many others, I am sure. Therefore, there are 1,70,000 churches in Washoe County, and we have a satanic prayer. It was the most devastating fire in the history of Nevada, and it felt strange. According to the Renault Satanic website, on January 16, 2024, on the same day, Renault witnessed an explosion in Nevada. The establishment of the Renault Satanic community carried out the first Satanic prayer courageously in front of a Nevada government. The website states that January 16 was declared as an auspicious prayer. But after the biggest fire in the history of Nevada, we couldn't find a rabbi. We couldn't find a priest. We couldn't find a priest. But how many people are included in the VDON TCCS? 50. 150. Do you think that 500 people worship Satan in one form or another in Washoe County? Jason Miller, founder of the organization We Don't Tease a Satanic, said in this sermon, New Age is coming. Jason Miller ended his prayer with two words that you all should remember. Bless Satan. 4,80,000 acres of land were destroyed. 60 houses, hundreds of animals, thousands of lives were destroyed. We have included Satanic Renoy's prayer in the agenda. Thank you.

9:34 – 17:01Speaker 3

Thank you. Maureen Magalroyan. Mrs. McElroy has something to say. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Recording I, my name is Maureen Magalroyal. I am here in the morning to make an announcement to you, our county commissioners. But first, some brief details. As presented in a general opinion at your BCC meeting in August 27, the return IC planes are departing from our local airport, Renault Tahoe International, via Air Wisconsin. No one knows where these planes are taking the human race. On weekdays, 7-14, ICE officers are taken out of Renoil by these jets. This is just one part of the process in these people's country. We want the names and details of these ICE officers who were arrested in our county jail to be included in our Washington County Sheriff's Office. But they have told us that those details are not included in our County Sheriff's Office. I know that our county jails are functioning well and properly, so I have no doubt that our sheriff's office will know exactly who is in their jail at any time. It would be ridiculous not to have those details for a facility that works so well. They know who is in their jail, but they don't share it. Commissioners, I urge you to get those details to your county sheriff's office and the public. Even if there are no criminal charges against that person, especially if there are no criminal charges against that person, we have the right to know who is behind the bars. Again, if the people who took us to the ICE custody and brought us to jail have not filed a criminal case, Dainanthi's booking reports do not prove it. Their situation in jail has completely disappeared from the public. It is not convenient. If a criminal is not charged, they cannot be named under the jurisdiction of the perpetrator in the jail. We cannot know who these people are, where they are, when they are going and where they are going. It is very clear that our jail has been turned into the entrance point of the pipeline into the dangerous gulags that these people are going to enter. They do not have a history of criminal punishment for prostitutes. We, your community, are paying attention to those who can go to our county jails. We want you to pay attention. We want to get those details. Thank you. Thank you. Dean Radcliffe Hello, County Commission members. I would like to thank you for your service. Thank you for listening to our comments. I am Dean Radcliffe. I live in Verdi. I am here to use my powerpoint using my fancy phone. I would like to show that I can email and show my powerpoint. I am speaking in the city of Reno, RDC. I have a life after that. I promise. But it's really happy to put it on the screen. About the City of Reno Meridian 120 project, I am going to talk specifically about Swadhinath, which runs in Washoe County. If this can grow, our beloved AV people will be very proud of it. That's a measure. It's very small. Again, I don't know if it will be very big. But the area in the blue is the property of Washoe County. The area here is Meridian 120 Project. Here, they are creating a special spillway that is known to be underground by adding a steamboat to that project. That is Nilavil. The steamboat does not have to come through the top. They are going to pipe through their development, that is, through the city of Renault. Also, they are going to create a public area detention basin here. What are they going to do with that water? Once they take it, they are again artificial animals. They take a place to hide from the steamboat. They are their own dead bodies. They bring it to a detention basin. They continue to hide it in the county properties that connect to that area. That's why the controversial code rules are seen in the Trekkie-Meadows-Vellapokka agreement. We're going to see it here in a minute. But actually, I've only said two things here. I think it's present. One is about the Drainage Act. Again. It is recognized that it should not be unnecessarily burdened with unnecessary changes or changes in the properties below or in the upstream properties. That's one part of it. The other part of it is Trekkie Meadows Regional Drainage Manuval. And then again, the flow of water from the properties that are being developed is transferred to the flow of water that is in a state before their development. By creating this unique flow of water that covers their properties from the steamboat, all this is a joke and does not happen on the ground. Certainly, water does not go up to five feet and go down to a thousand feet, as we all know as humans. Then this is another step by step. Again, the design of what they have done is to maintain the development opportunities ahead of the large and small courtyards and address overflow. This is definitely not doing anything. So I don't have time for more tension law. Please share it. Very good. And I also wish. This is my request. Please let the developers do this correctly. As you can imagine, I, I'm not saying thank you. Everyone who signed in to the Chamber is the same. Lynn Wheatstone from Incline Village is speaking virtually. Can you hear me?

17:01 – 19:01Speaker 2

Yes. My name is Lynn Wheatstone. I've been living in Incline Village for 25 years. The community support grant awards in today's agenda will be given to the Ingleine Village residents, especially the elderly, for their needs. Funds will be given to help subsidize trips to the Tahoe Express airport to the north. Of course, I support that. Nevertheless, I would like to draw the attention of the commissioners that the elderly need to be aged in Ingleine for medical appointments outside the Ingleine Village. Until this financial year, the Inglein Village General Improvement District from Washoe County received $17,000 as a small subsidy and other additional benefits. June 30, before IVGID Washoe County. It was found that there was no legal right to continue this service, and the county helped in achieving it. The resumption of the IVGID program was completed by County Rayann Gustafsson. When we considered long-term auctions and possible funding opportunities, it was suggested that discussions with RTCU and other potential partners would continue. Even though IVGID provides other types of breastfeeding services, the most important thing for the health and well-being of the elderly is to take them to medical appointments in Trekkies and Renaults. For example, due to the fact that there are more community hospitals, outpatient facilities and diagnostic tests in the in-line, patients with chronic diseases such as cancer diseases have to go to a cancer center or other specialist in a truck. In the last financial year, there were approximately 200 on-demand trips for a trip of about Rs. 120 per month. This cost was reduced by Rs. 8,000. Thank you. We haven't signed anything yet.

19:28 – 21:14Speaker 3

Thank you. Okay, we will go ahead and end the public opinion. Now we will move on to the recommendations of the commissioners and county managers. Manager Thomas. Thank you, Madam Chair. These are the reports and updates. Avail Board, Commission Updates, Details about the announcements or the events in the Vavi Agenda, etc. I would like to make one thing clear in the spirit of Sudhari Dev. By God, we are praying for all the religious affiliates here. We received two emails. I wanted to let everyone know that the request for prayer in August was granted to all of us on January 22. So, the wrong description of how the process of connecting fire, which was somehow related to the prayer in August, works, I would like to put it on record so that people know how it works. That's all I have. I commend it. I don't think it's appropriate for people to submit a request as a prayer, and I don't think it's appropriate for people to submit a request as a prayer, and I don't think it's appropriate for people to submit a request as a prayer, and I don't think it's appropriate for people to submit a request as a prayer, and I don't think it's appropriate for people to submit a request as a prayer, and I don't think it's appropriate for people to submit a request as a prayer, and I don't think it's appropriate for people to submit a request as a prayer, and I don't think it's appropriate for people to submit a request as a prayer, and I don't think it's appropriate for people to submit a request as a prayer, and I don't think it's appropriate for people to submit a request as a prayer, and I don't think it's appropriate for people to submit a request as a prayer, and I don't think it's appropriate for people to submit a request as a prayer, and I don't think it's appropriate for And do we have any other board openings? Thank you. I announced it in August. We had two. I wasn't sure if there was anything new. Thank you. Commissioner Herman, do you have anything? Vice Chair Garcia. Commissioner Hill.

21:14 – 22:27Speaker 2

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. I would like to introduce the person who gave the public opinion in the in-line. I would like to inform them that our team is working to ensure the doctor's well-being. Because if we have decided not to give these services, we will take them there. I am working to see whether we will get a grant from Arteseal, which has given grants to the county for the Incline Village Improvement District. Because we are now giving grants, we want to see whether we will get it directly. Therefore, if you need a medical appointment, please contact the Human Services Agency or Washoe 311 in Washoe County. I would like to make it clear that we will contact you and ensure that you are well. It was very disappointing that IVGID decided to cancel those services quickly, but the county agreed. Therefore, I would like to thank Manager Thomas. Thank you very much for your leadership in this field. We will continue to help as many people as we can. Thank you.

22:27 – 24:42Speaker 3

I have two opinions. One. A community meeting is being held at the Nevada Cooperative Extension University for all landowners affected by the UNR extension, OOM, BUG, Stallion, and Hawk fires. In September 21, at 6 a.m. in the evening, a meeting will take place at the Red Rock Granite Hills Baptist Church. UH Extension will be held from 2 am to 6 am on September 25 at Valley Road Greenhouse Complex at College of Agriculture, Biotechnology, Natural Resources, Nevada Field Day. This is a program that provides fun and family-friendly opportunities to learn about local agriculture. At that time, I decided to share it with everyone. Then, to share it with everyone in the need of sustainability. For this, I would like to thank you all. A committee has been created. They have a variety of committees. I am in charge of the committee for immigration. Therefore, we are trying to find out what opportunities immigration can bring. I hope that the survey will be very helpful and that everyone in the country can participate. Even if you hear me talking a lot about the outbreak, it is a serious incident, but like other incidents, Washoe County is a big supporter. I think it was wrong not to accept the next 9th by 11th and 25th. Two events are taking place. One is in Sparks Marina. Welcome.

25:17 – 35:23Speaker 2

In the morning, Dr. Chad Kingsley, District Health Officer of Northend Nevada Public Health. Thank you for bringing me here in the morning. In the last six months, we have only come to report on one or two things. But in general, our goal, the importance of resistance, and the importance of justice for our community is the most important thing. Only the highlights of the report. For the next three years, we have worked together with the District Health Board to develop and implement our programs. Not only what we do, but if we have done a lot of things in this, it is a small change in what the actual income is. So, we are trying to find out what the actual income is in our society. So, it is included in our program. But we have that set for the next three years. It completes our program for the financial year from 2024 to 2026. We also gave a lot of points on how we serve our community and how we operate in North Nevada Public Health. And here are just a few highlights. First, we opened the Verdi Monitoring Station on both sides, so that our local firefighters and This is the first station to find out if there is anything wrong with the air quality of our air from California. They can provide us with the best coverage of our air quality. But we can also find out where our next monitoring station is and how it will benefit our community. This is a 10-year process. We can open it in Verde. I will always show you two of the plan availabilities, and will allow you to do so only for 3.2 days, 99% of which will be completed on time. Therefore, there are a lot of great activities for our community, our business, and the construction community. Community, clinical health services, and just a few things to show off. We noticed that people without insurance come to our clinic with high expectations. Now we are in about 50% of the cases. We continue as a point-of-care service for the prevention of sexual health services, day by day. So, anyone can do it. We have about 44 appointments a day that one person can participate in. For that, we are one place in the community. We are still there as TopiaPai. We are happy to give it. To improve our budget and to pay more attention to it, the Mona Week office was closed. We did it through a campaign. Improved our participation. Improved the services we provide to our community. With the help of the Washoe County Library System, we are currently working to find out if it is possible to provide satellite services to people who cannot drive and improve access to people who are not able to drive. But we know the ways we can improve the access to those people who are not able to drive. However, due to COVID-19, we have been able to do more work online and by phone. So, this is a very important way for us to make money and bring the same benefits to our community. Situational Health Benefits We are still in our pilot program, which uses the resources available for the research of restaurants. We have also stopped all our research for veterinary research, as well as we are working in the status that we give to our community for our veterinary services. We can give a complete management training to the facilities that receive this training from 25 to 31 per month. We were aware of the increase in the number of veterinary diseases. In the past few years, only about 8 people have been looking for a job. We noticed that this has increased to 14,000 per month. We have a grant from PFAS. This is where we go out and sample our water standards. In the first two steps, 39 residential wells were examined, 13 of which were positive. When you get that report, we can bring it to you. But we can continue to inspect here in our community to accept that grant. Last year, we had 509 flu patients. 70% of them were unvaccinated. We had 26 deaths. We noticed that the people who suffered the most from respiratory diseases were those above 65 years of age. So, if we can reduce even half of the 35% or 70% vaccination rate in any flu campaign, will that reduce our flu season? But that is not a financial issue, is it? It is someone who has not been vaccinated. If insurance companies and our health authorities are having a hard time, that's not the case. That's why it continues. That's why the flu season will begin here immediately. Oh, new flu flu vaccines are available in our community pharmacies, as well as in Northern Nevada Public Health. And we noticed that gastrointestinal diseases are spreading in more than one state without hospitals. This is a national issue that we are concerned about. We are continuing to track it. And unfortunately, we expect that our purposes or wills will be destroyed in the near future. In the past few years, we have had a lot of exposure in our high schools and educational institutions. Unfortunately, we had a case last week. So, when we look at our report card in Nevada, we continue to monitor and advise. Our vaccinations were about 94%. 95% is the target. We have seen a lot more than other counties in Nevada. Oh, but we continue to monitor and inform where we can get the vaccines that affect our community. All in all, this is just an old story of how the Hogue Bug Bug Stallion was set on fire. We are now joining Hawaii and California as one of the few states that have conducted a local public health demonstration. This helps not only our state, but also our federal members to decide how to respond. Therefore, I would like to thank the District Attorney for helping us in this process and for the time required to do so. The public health of Northend, Nevada, is a resistance to the fires, and we are helping them a lot. We are doing all our jobs in advance. We are in touch with agencies. If there is any agency that needs to be involved, we will contact them and help them with the vaccination and recovery. As a result, we contacted 41 agencies and obtained 30 items. However, one part of the items contained 185 people, including 289 health care workers. What was the total number of the items? Approximately 584 health care workers had to be moved or affected in any way. All the residents of our health centers are alchemist homes or psychiatric homes or various houses. We had to close down even our free areas in the northern areas, but we were able to conduct a meeting with them. Before that, if we had developed those facilities and facilities, we would have been able to accommodate all of them and re-establish the population. Apart from that, it creates a lot of problems when it is closed. We are trying to solve food problems in all restaurants and restaurants that are not closed. We were able to work with our week members, but the next week, the homeless people who bought food had to use their homes, and that food was lost. So we contacted the government, and the government immediately returned it. They went back and helped them buy all their food back. So those people don't have to sit without food for a month. At that time, HSL, the public information officer, is giving a very good response to the quality of the air. I would like to thank all the people who responded to this in the public health of Northern Nevada. Last time I came here, when I asked Commissioner Clark about our location, I would like to inform him that we have been able to move and develop to outer space. By developing our infrastructure on 9th Street, we will be able to put in a little more effort here. Within the next two months, those changes will be able to put in some updates and some improvements to our location. Thank you. Dr. Kingsley, Commissioner Hill, do you have any questions? Madam Chair, thank you for your leadership in the district health department. I am truly grateful to you for representing us on board. Thank you for your presence. I feel sorry for you, and you touched upon this, but what are your wishes? I meant to say that we are going to serve more people. Do you have any advice for us? When you face these changes, what else do you gain? Now, we continue to observe. We observe where our inhabitants are. Our descendants continue the same way. But we can always find out where they are. So sometimes it can be from one week to a week, but we can find out the whole thing. Forgive me. I set a timer. So I made 10 minutes. I was below it. So there are a lot of doubts in it. But it is an attempt to talk more. Instead of trying to move as far as possible, we are responding. But unfortunately, it will be more of a response. Yes, right. Or it will be a response. Yes.

35:31 – 35:59Speaker 3

Vice-Chair Garcia, thank you very much. I am always happy to see you. I know that you announced the state of public health on August 28. Everyone did it carefully and carefully. But after a few days, you announced the announcement of the community health needs assessment on August 31, 2026. First of all, I would like to thank you. Thank you for this. This is a lot of plates being torn. That's what I'm tearing now.

36:23 – 37:32Speaker 2

It is very important to reach out to our community, because it allows us to keep the necessary data for our many unprofitable institutions and for our community to grow and prosper. Now it is going to be marketed. But I would like to welcome Renown as an extremely wonderful partner. I believe that this has developed our ideas so that the community can reach out to us. But these are very few people who are able to operate in a renowned way. Therefore, this is the next promotion. That is, it is operating to bring it into our society. It will be known to the extent that our community is healthy. But as you pointed out, it came out the other side a week ago, so it is moving towards it. But overall, it was a wonderful process. This community really helped us to move forward. This can be done in our own way, in our own way, and it can be done for our people, and it can be done together, and it helped us. They laid down the burdens that we could not handle, but we have doctors and epidemiologists to deliver that data and do the research. Therefore, it was a good contribution that was well appreciated and given well. Good.

37:32 – 38:10Speaker 3

Thank you. Commissioner Herman, Thank you for your report. We really appreciate it. Thank you. Thank you. To find out more about that, you can go to nnph.org. If anyone needs help, more help is available. So it was really wonderful. Dr. Kinsley, I am surprised if you are a member of the DEA. Because we have the opportunity to attend two public health workshops for people who are suffering from MHS. I am surprised if you can share those details.

38:20 – 40:35Speaker 2

Yes, thank you. So, we have two. Next month, I will be able to pay the fees and time needed for the workshops. Not only that, next month, our community will also be able to afford it. We had a third party M.G.T. for the R.F.P. and the R.F.P. for the R.F.P. through the subordinates who joined the county. But, a third party had to pay our fees. No matter how much fees we had, it was still low. This is as important as our community. Because not only are we making a profit from our income, but we are also trying to sustain the services and services that we give to our community. So, this is where we get the cost of recycling. So, we don't have the cost of recycling. In other words, we make sure that these services reach our community in the best possible way. This means that these points can be applied to dust pollution, health research, land development, irrigation systems, and irrigation systems. This will be the first in September, so we would like to invite anyone from our community who has wishes to participate. We want full participation. What are these fees? What is the methodology behind them? How did we reach this decision? What do we provide? What are the benefits in our community? We want complete clarity and clarity. They are available on our website. We can make them available on the county website as well. Oh, we have two workshops. We can connect with the contractors and contractors of the contractors and bring them to our community. Or, we will contact those who are in contact with us via email. We will contact them via mail. We will try to catch up with them in any way possible. And, through surveys, we will be able to find out about the possible fees changes for those who want to participate. And, the Business Impact Statement will be handed over to the District Health Board in October. I would like to invite those who would like to comment and those who can give input to the District Health Board in October. Then look at different times, but I can hand over those dates and times to the board. Thank you.

40:35 – 50:53Speaker 3

I think this is a very important opportunity when looking at the details of how the fees were decided when the fees were not reviewed for a short time. Therefore, there is a survey that everyone or those who are interested can participate. From 5 pm to 7 am on September 22, the workshops continue from 5 pm to 10 pm on September 23, Wednesday. The survey continues. So, thank you. I thought it was important. I think it is also very important to share the knowledge of Andrea Espe, Scott, Oxcart, etc. I expect that his last name is correct. He did a great job of working with all the residents in a local area and working as an interim manager. The way he handled things showed his relationship with them. Um, I think that's important. You've done it so far. But the relationship between Northean Nevada Public Health and Washoe County and Tamil is very strong, I'm going to go back and find out. One thing that happens in it is that the value of shared services can be treated as an independent institution, because Northean Nevada Public Health is an independent institution. If that institution stands alone, it cannot really describe the benefits, skills, and treatment of the DA office, and our legal relationship with it is a rock star. Therefore, it is an honour for that party to be able to participate in an MPH on the importance of how to do it. Therefore, thank you very much for standing on that path. What we did was important. Therefore, thank you very much. I don't know if anyone else is doing anything else. I thank you very much. Okay, let's go ahead and close 5A1. In addition, let's move on to 6A1 to 6G4. Does anyone want to retreat or want to talk more? Hariman, can you give us any general opinion? We know. Kim Fenner. Hello, my name is Kim Finner. I live in Spanish Springs. I am here about a story. This is an application for starting a business in a house in Spanish Springs. I don't know if I have a real objection. This is more of a story. The report on the third page shows that the house is related to the property of 315 L. Paraiso Kodathi. This is in a square shape. This is like a pie wedge. It is at the point of the pie. Moreover, the back of the property is in the Crest Cordoba Boulevard. It indicates that there is a different price and that parcel is outside Cordoba. I have a house in 9,055 Cordoba. When I first announced that I wanted an apartment in my mother-in-law's quarters or in this pie-wedge, it didn't even come through my doorstep. No problem. Then it opened. Now it's coming through it. In 9,040, there is a mother-in-law's quarters. And from the request, that person says that he wants to start business in 9,040. If it is in the condition of having two bedrooms and two bathrooms, I have no problem. But if it is one of the other outbuildings there, especially the one built from December 2025, I will do so, because I got permission for it and accepted it as a shed with special needs. There is not only medicine, there is no plumbing, there is no water, there is no mechanical. Now, if we are going to build a barber shop like this, I understand that it is just a cashier and it is a limit. But if we accept it, we have to make sure that it meets all the needs of other cosmetology. According to one method, a special pool with two sinks, a ventilation system, a mechanical system, plumbing and water is required. So, if this application can be improved or stopped by 9,040, we don't know if it is actually legal access or not. But I drive home many times every day. Um, they have done a lot of work in the building. It is interesting. If it is a building, I don't have a problem with that resident having a Kaseera Barbershop. It says that partial inspections are not required. I think they are internal. But if it is another building, I do that because I get a discount for the building there and add a shed there. Then, if all other barbershops need to be completed, we are talking about things that are not intended to be in the place of plumbing, sinks, mechanicals, etc. Then, if Amani is here, he will say, No, it will be in my 9,040th house. The comfort of a car garage with two bedrooms, the changes in the status of my house. Thank you. Mr. Moore. I am looking to see if there is anything from the staff here. What we can do is that we can call them back if we can reach anyone here. That would be great. Thank you. We will try to reach anyone here. Yes, I know, and I don't know all the special needs, but I know that this special ordinance has not been reviewed for 20 years. And Mr. Moore came in January. After that, I saw him without staying. I wanted to know if the three beauty parlors were using anyone now. It was there. That's why there are other authorities in barbershops. I think it is necessary to maintain all the rules. I examined it. All the cosmetology guidelines in our staff report have to be followed. It contains more important things. So, if we can, it would be very good to understand that point. I don't know where the exact location in our standard or here in our pocket has been submitted to the public. I'm stopping it temporarily because I'm opening it. It's on the lakeside in Cordova. So it has to meet all those requirements. So, to be fair, it's not just this business, but any business. If it has to meet all those requirements, I think there's a way to get water. If you're building a dam, no, I don't think it's allowed. That's why I'm going to ask if water is necessary. Madam Chair, if I can, do we have any other general opinions about the agreement? If not, I will agree to accept the agreement as the agreement was signed with this agreement. That would be good. Okay, that would be great. This is 66A3. Okay, until the staff hears it, I will agree to delay it to 8683. Second, we have a promise and a second. Is there more discussion? All those who agree when they don't hear anything, aye. Aye. Are you against it? The promise will be passed unanimously. Therefore, we will wait for the manager Thomas to share when and how to rule the staff. Mr.Large, who is still waiting, will give it to us when the staff comes. Will that be okay? Yes, thank you. Okay, we'll move forward. Madam Chair will end it. Oh, move forward. Very quickly, um, I wanted to make a small sound in 6B1. Um, we have a promise. Certainly, I don't want to delay it. But I wanted to approve the 44th Annual Certificate of Achievement in Financial Reporting of the US and Canada Government Finance Officers Association. This is the GFO, as we love to call it. And this is the account of the county that ended on June 30, 2025. And it has the appropriate financial report. I see that our controller is here. And I wanted to give special recognition for that. Because I know it's not an easy job. But we have been able to reach our goal for the next 44 years. That's why I wanted to thank you and your entire staff for all the important activities that helped us attract you. Okay, Miss Hill, you're a rock star. You know you have to come to the mic and say a few things. She likes it, I know. Because you're a rock star. Oh, it's been 44 years. That's how it goes. Thank you everyone. I don't like to talk. That's why I want to talk to our division director. She did that to me. Thank you very much for accepting the award.

50:53 – 51:06Speaker 2

This is a team effort. A lot of people are needed to complete this. We are starting next week on the 45th. So we will return next year to say that we got this again. Thank you. No consent. Yes. Can you share the real meaning of that?

51:15Speaker 3

This is not only the United States award of the Government Finance Officers Association. What does it mean? What are the advantages? I think it is important to share this.

51:25 – 51:43Speaker 2

That's a good thing. For the benefit of the public, according to the changes made and respected, the reporting needs change every year. Every year, they continue to present it in a format that is easy for the public to read. We do those needs and fulfill those needs. In addition, we continue to have a clean audit of the county we report to Sudharitha. We continue to have a clean audit of the county we report to

51:50 – 52:24Speaker 3

So, now we can do this. Congratulations. Congratulations. Thank you, Manager Thomas. Okay, now we will stop blocking Vice Chair Garcia. Madam Chair, I would like to return to the 11th floor. But I am fine without that. Okay. Is that a form of a promise? Do you want to read it in the Hermann block? Okay. Commissioner Hermann, do you want to read it in the block? Forgive me. She usually does that. Yes, 11th floor.

52:32Speaker 2

7, 8, 9, 1, Poojam, 1, 2, 1, 3, in the form of a Pramayam.

52:37 – 53:09Speaker 3

According to Vice-Chair Garshi's statement, we have a problem with the number 11. Okay. So, do we have any general opinion? We know. Okay. For the 8th number, we have Joshi Herbier. Herbier. Thank you. Oops!

53:12 – 54:58Speaker 2

Hello, Commissioners. Oh, this is Josh Abar for the record. Oh, because we are facing a lot of problems now, this special agenda caught my attention. Therefore, we are planning to spend $5.7 million in the next two years to solve this problem. I do not object to this. What I am concerned about is that there is $2.225 million for self-sufficient facilities. I found this because of the hoax that was put in place for these underground facilities. Therefore, there are legal problems here. Therefore, work has to be done clearly. But I think there is a serious problem related to the water supply for this particular facility. In the report, it is said that it will continue to be like 200 years of water supply and there will be 500 years of water supply. First, I want the Commission to ban such associations. I believe that they do not have a right to change the way things are changing in the world of climate change. So, if we had two waterfalls in the last two years, they are not waterfalls in the last two years. They are waterfalls. So, we need to take a step forward for these things. I suggest that a special Vileiruthal district should be allocated for this project to recover the costs of these measures and to provide public facilities to avoid these costs in Bavi. Because we are wasting a budget for these measures. Firefighters are facing a lot of costs. This is why we don't know what our negative costs will be. Therefore, I would like you to consider what the actual cost of such negative costs will be for the county in the future. Thank you. Thank you.

55:26 – 57:34Speaker 3

I would like to talk to the 8th floor. And that is in my district. Not only the engineers, but also the environment, how things are measured, how it is seen, etc. We held a community meeting in a variety of ways with a presentation from the NOA who worked unbelievably. Anyone who wants to see the whole meeting will get that video. Another news about it is that there is an expectation about what to do next. And there is a possibility of a community meeting. Ashok is about to come. Therefore, Not only in the agenda, this does not mean that it is completely completed. In fact, let me also thank you. Thank you. In the deep discussions, I wanted to make sure that everyone knows that video is available, that Climatology is a professional youth who has conducted research and research. The details of this Hidden Valley area were explained. This was very interesting. I will encourage anyone to check out those details. Even if you are not interested to see it all, you can go to their page. I think it is helpful to understand what it means and what it means to understand the two past events. Then, what can we do as a county? Let's see how we can help the residents of Hidden Valley. Again, more details are coming in as I predicted. So, do you have any other details about this issue? Anyone has any opinion? I am happy to do the second part of Herman's promise. Good. So, we have a promise.

57:34Speaker 2

The second part is that the 11th floor is retreating. Is there more discussion?

57:47 – 1:06:55Speaker 3

I don't hear anything. Everyone who agrees, aye. Aye. Are you against it? Thank you. Now, let's move on to the 11th. Manager Thomas. Thank you, Madam Chair. This is a good news for the Chief Human Resource Officer to make sure that all insurance and employment certificates related to the health insurance system, which is worth nearly $95.4 billion, are authorized by the Chief Human Resource Officer to run. Ashley Barrington will join us this morning. She will give us some details and answer any questions you may have. Thank you. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. This is the staff report of the Health and Welfare Department. This is the result of the weekly discussions with our insurance discussion committee. This is a presentation from one of the groups of workers who represent the representatives and the secret management representatives from all our labour associations. Through that process, we introduce each of our health methods that we provide to the workers, the employees, as well as some other agencies. We are looking at it in a new way. You know what changes can be made in the plans for reducing the love, plans, as well as giving more opportunities to the living and the needy, or reducing the love when needed. So, through that process, we are discussing what our options are for the next calendar year and what to give to all of you. In this staff report, there are some major changes in our PPO plan. Some of them include virtual care, physical therapy, women's health, chronic disease and metabolic condition management, prevention, and heart conditions. Our Shubharsha, who is fully insured with the Suresht plan, wants to stop that plan. We understand that Shubharshi is not easy for all of you to understand. Shubharshi is not easy to read for all of us. It is not a message that anyone wanted to bring forward. Nevertheless, after trying for years to keep that plan, a new development came from UnitedHealthcare. It is a UnitedHealthcare. Certainly, that growth was 40%. When other carriers like Shubhasha or other auctions from Home Down Health, such as Kaiser, Aetna, Anthem, etc. are renamed, those auctions will increase by 36% to 43%. To reduce those premiums to a more sustainable and affordable system, you know, the insurance discussion committee has to really investigate and improve those facilities, or improve the facilities, improve the copies, improve the maximum pockets. But that's not the case. Unfortunately, we no longer have a sustainable business to continue the offer. Thank you, Vice Chair Garci. Thank you very much for the details. And in this regard, we received two emails again. I know that it is a great burden on people's minds. And especially when you talk about the 4,700 subscribers we have in these plans and the 3,200 worthy blessings we have. According to the regulations that I fully understand and promise, the HMO model is no longer in place. I understood it. My question is related to the agencies involved. I didn't know that there were TCs in the world's health insurance banks until the next generation. So, you know, even though they are a small and powerful team, you know, about 70 people, and when I heard that, I was in awe, and at the time of the Insurance Negotiating Committee, we were in the price units of 11 people, and you know, when there is a price from other institutions, I was curious to see if those agencies were involved in that process. Because they are small. Also, I know that there are other agencies like TMW who operate in their health insurance. Also, people are always worried about what local authorities are doing. If they have it, they will cry. But my wish is that today we decide whether a partner agency will be affected. It may have been or may not have been. Really a big disappointment. We will start the endowment right away. This will start from January 1. First of all, can you help us? According to our plan, how many agencies are participating today? If this is just RETC, we can take care of the opinions and discussions related to it. There are three separate agencies that are participating with us. Also, we are giving them our group health plans. Therefore, it is under North End Nevada Legal Aid, Nevada Works, and their responsibility to participate in our group health plans, NRS 287.1 Poojamni. And then we have RITC. I believe that it was decided before us from the direct relationship. Yes, then, from the 80s, we have discussed our group's health standards with some of their members and some of their relatives. Okay. Did they know about the decision of the Insurance Negotiation Negotiation Committee? So I told them. They didn't know about that process. Do you know about the Insurance Negotiation Committee? It is run by an employee. So, we are standing firm in that committee and in the agreement that has been made in that committee. Their other agencies are not included in this. So, when the insurance committee votes and decides their decisions, I must make it clear that the insurance committee will not vote to stop the program of Sureshtu or the fully insured. Um, that's a Staff Shubharshi, but the Insurance Committee approved it. Okay. Um, so when they were satisfied with the Staff Shubharshi who voted in favor of a higher standard of employment, we announced the BAHI agencies, Jeevanakar, and Vaguppa Medavigal. So, do you know that they are stuck in a difficult place? Either they are spending a lot of money on their own or they are trying to buy something. But I don't think they can spend a lot of time before the start of the Open Endowment. When is the Open Endowment a guaranteed window for everyone? If you can, tell us what that window is. So, the Open Endowment is from October 26 to November. The 20th Thursday. Okay. The Thursdays are determined by which day it is Monday. Okay. But we are aiming for an open endowment every four weeks. Is there any way for me to make sure that there are options for a program under the Nevada state? If we need any help like RITC, Northern Nevada Legal Aid or Nevada Works, we have a way to make those discussions easy. I know that it will take a little more time for the state to take action. If they are operating within a very short time. I would like to see if some of the meetings in the county can be made easier or faster. I am happy. I am sure that I have nothing to do with the beginning of the constitution, but I know that some of my co-workers in HR are like that. I am happy to do that. Okay, these are my questions. Thank you. Thank you to all the commissioners for your participation and your detailed explanation of the various feedbacks, opinions and decisions made by some people and how these decisions were taken. I think that in a perfect world, some expenses and decisions will not be made, as you have shown so far. This is the most certain change in the plan in this situation. Therefore, I think everyone is a little careless about the major changes. But you are ready to do as much as you can using what you have in your hands. I think the other three people and their decisions can be implemented as quickly as possible as they know. This may be one thing to think about in the future. Okay, sure, I'll do it. Thank you. Yes, do you have any other questions? Yes, Commissioner Hill.

1:06:56 – 1:08:04Speaker 2

Thank you, Vice Chair Garcia. Thank you for your support. I know that we are trying our best to ensure that health and safety is at the highest level, and that we are trying our best to provide the best treatment for the disease, but I know that the people are disappointed. So, I would like to tell them that I was disappointed that there were more public opinions, but you stopped it. You explained it to the people, because I expected that the people would seek public opinion. However, I really appreciate what the chair said about us accepting and making those decisions. And very detailed points. And then I asked him if he could think of a way to use the method that he is familiar with with manager Thomas to control RTC. Because they don't have the administration for that, they are in a hurry. Therefore, I wanted to inform the board that it would be one thing that we could do, and that it would be another discussion to see how to support our colleagues. But, thank you for your efforts. Yes, thank you very much to everyone.

1:08:04 – 1:08:38Speaker 3

Thank you. Anything else? Okay, this is a motion that can be taken. I am going to ask for public opinion. We have not signed anyone. Thank you. Madam chair, do you have any interest in making a statement? Madam chair, I agree to accept your statement. Secondly, we have a statement and a second. Is there any further discussion? I don't hear anything. All those who agree are saying yes. Are you against it? The statement is agreed unanimously. Thank you. I am surprised by the status of these three.

1:08:38 – 1:08:51Speaker 1

I think Mr. Lloyd is ready to talk about it. I believe that Mr. Moore is here and that he can shed some light on what the public has said. Thank you very much. Mr. Lloyd, hello, Mr. Pran. Come. So, I'm not sure if you were here.

1:09:07 – 1:09:49Speaker 3

Then, I think, where is the real place of this particular business? But even from my point of view standing on the top floor, the reason is that it is going to be a burden. This is not only a burden to any investor, but also to the one we are talking about. Is there anything necessary? I believe that we should take care of all the necessities of a barbershop and all the necessities of cosmetology. Otherwise, we should take care of a compliance agency that is at least responsible for what we have to take care of. So, I'm going to ask you a question about that. I wanted to make sure that the staff report was responding to that. I wanted to make sure that.

1:09:52 – 1:10:12Speaker 2

Madam Chair, thank you for the board members. For the record, planning and building, my Trevor Lloyd. I'm sorry to ask, but I was told to arrive as soon as possible and conduct the inspection. Where do you think this saloon or barber shop will be? We got permission from the inspector. It will be in the parking lot. So, for example, this won't be in a special shop.

1:10:25 – 1:11:11Speaker 3

Thank you, but again, the Cosmetology piece in this important part of the Ordinance has to be managed by other independent agencies here. Also, I do not know all the requirements for the Cosmetology Board, you make it compulsory. Okay, but there will definitely be water for those administrative requirements. If you are going to open a barber shop or a beauty parlor, I will arrange it. Has that name changed? Anyway, I haven't heard of a beauty parlor for a long time, but I think it's a thing. You may not know that. I think water is a necessity.

1:11:12 – 1:11:33Speaker 2

Again, since I don't know much about this type of activity from the top of my head, I'm using it with you. I think there will definitely be some input in this regard for the public health of Northern Nevada. Yes, I think services are needed. And we. I wanted to make it clear. The reason.

1:11:51Speaker 3

I think you need to follow all the requirements of the application that has been announced.

1:11:57 – 1:12:31Speaker 1

Then... Ma'am, Madam Chair, if I can use this application, Michael Lang is recording. This application is only for this one use. This is not the value of all the businesses. This is a one-off use for a single barber shop. According to the code, barbershops are not allowed to be a home-adjusted business. That's what we're doing in this situation. He still has to follow all the rules of the Washington County Code and the Cosmetology Act. The only problem with that is that he is allowed to do this as a home-based business. Okay. Thanks. Do you have any other questions? Mr. Lloyd.

1:12:39 – 1:20:50Speaker 3

So, we have to make sure that it will be available at home in this special application, right? So, thank you. So, according to WCC 25.4426, I am happy to accept the offer of Shounmoor to review the business development projects in the houses. According to WCC 25.442.5, the aim is to allow a barbershop business as a business from a house to run as a business from a barbershop business according to WCC 25.442.5. The second one. We have a request for the second one. Is there any more discussion? All those who agree because none is heard. Yes. Yes. Is there anyone who opposes? The vote is unanimous. Thank you very much. Now we will move on to number 14. This is the first sentence. This will be the 1960th bill. Mondry X 2000 Subdivision MAP Case No. TM Poojam Poojam Poojam 7, Poojam Poojam 2, Nulla Vikasana Kararil Bedhagati Varuthunadhinulla 1 Ordinance, Aditha MAP Record Jaiyinnadhinulla Samayaparithi 2027 July 24, WAC 26, Poojam Poojam Poojam 8 Vare Neetan Pogunnu.

Um, does anyone need any explanation for this? Um, is there any more information about this? Okay, I can't hear anything. Please, I'll go ahead and call an officer. Madam Chair, I'm going to issue bill number 1960, as you issued. Thank you. Okay, we'll go ahead and close bill number 14. We'll close bill number 15 with a general opinion. Manager Thomas. Thank you, Madam Chair. This is your last general opinion. The opinion that is heard under this bill will be extended to one person for 3 minutes. Also, it may be related to things outside the commission agenda. Other speakers will not be allowed to use the time. Also, your opinions will be announced in the commission. We have not signed in. Thank you. Now we will move on to the 16th. Commissioners and County Manager, Manager Precautions. Manager Thomas. Thank you. The reports and updates for the boards and commissions in this are related to the details of the announcements or the agenda. I don't have anything for you. Commissioner Herman. Vice-Chair Garcia, I know, I forgot an announcement this morning. Thank you. I would like to invite the community to participate in the 5th National Youth Mental Health Summit in Washoe County. This will take place at Grace Church on September 15, Wednesday. This will last for 30 minutes from 8 a.m. to 2 a.m. The doors will open at 7 a.m. Even so, we have a meeting. Yes, like that. We have to go to the first part in the morning. Then you can all be seen in the chamber. Yes, me. I don't think we have the power to help schedule, but I will try to make sure that it goes as soon as possible and returns as a meeting. But if anyone wants to participate, I will encourage you to do so. And I think there are hundreds of people who have scheduled this, and I think the details will be amazing. Do you know if it will be shown in the video? We can see it later. One day. One day it may not be there. One day it may not be there. Commissioner Hill, do you have any requests? Okay, I don't have anything else to say without saying it again. Thank you for the hard work you have done in handling the fire. I would like to thank everyone who remembers 9 by 11, not only the reflection of 9 by 11, but also the reflection of who we are as a society, what has happened in our society, and who we are as a society, and I hope that we will be able to see the same in the future. I feel that we are a part of a disease, and we still have to remember that. There is a mental burden for any bad thing not to happen. In that, we have the ability to have peace and forgiveness. I would like to thank all the people who worked with me who donated thousands of dollars to help HSE and Washoe County to buy food and other things for people in North Valley. There is a different story for each person affected by the cause. If you have ever heard this opinion, I hope you will remember that when you see a fire, you see a fire. When you see a person with a fire, the story of a person will be different from that of another person. So, as I said, I would like to thank all the businesses that donated thousands of dollars for immediate assistance, all the people who helped in the Community Resource Center, all the people who participated in the campaign, and all our local partners. This is a time for peace of mind. A lot of things have to be done. I think it would be nice to see how the action review results will be. Also, in this meeting, I would like to share with the Board of Fire Commissioners that I have decided to conduct a local survey of female number 602 among the selected employees. Therefore, when we face a problem, all selected employees are ready to fulfill their roles. I would like to thank the Association of Women with Disabilities, which is very active in this field. Therefore, the information that went everywhere, the information that was possible, the information that could be investigated, and the items were not only collected. What was done was through the ICS project, the Incident Command. Then, in 2027, I hope that all selected employees will be able to operate and win through a table top. I know that Commissioner Hill has been through a lot of trials. Not in the state of being a chosen employee, but rather in the years when I was serving at Red Cross, I went through a lot of trials. It is very important for you to know your share and responsibility as an employee chosen like any other employee. Help to make our community happy. Get close to an employee. If you do not know your employee, please come and introduce yourself and find out what people want. We are here to help. I would like to thank Commissioner Herman for everything you have done. I know that your district has suffered a lot of damage. In the case of those who were killed, my district was also destroyed. Commissioner Garcia was also like that. You had people, but we did not look at the authorities. The authorities are denying. The social and financial sector is denying. The fire department is not showing. Thank you to everyone who has made our society as safe as possible. Thank you to everyone who has helped us in the fire. So please make a new friend. We can help to make our society better. We will move forward through this recovery process. So I will end the meeting after 11 o'clock in the afternoon. Keep this meeting aside. Thank you.
