Staff proposes ordinance to align county code with Nevada AB241; commissioners raise design and density concerns

Community development director Gavin Henderson presented a proposed code amendment to comply with Nevada Assembly Bill 241, which requires counties to permit multifamily (three or more units) or mixed‑use developments as a permitted use in certain commercial zones. Henderson said the draft ordinance adjusts land‑use tables and adds a utility requirement that would require new multifamily developments to connect to public water and sewer where available.
