The Sunrise Manor Town Board opened the first of three required meetings to gather suggestions for the FY26–27 budget request and to review the current status of FY25 budget requests; staff said the process is required under Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS).

A staff planner told the board this is the first of three agenda appearances to solicit suggestions from board members and neighbors; staff will return with an update on outstanding requests at the next meeting and a final set of board recommendations at the third meeting. The planner said the statute does not prescribe content for requests and that requests may range from stop signs to equipment; departments and county leadership make funding decisions based on available budget allocations.

Public commenters pressed the board to prioritize maintenance of existing roadways on the east side of town. Commenters said many road segments need relatively inexpensive treatments such as slurry seals rather than full reconstruction, and that poorly maintained streets cause vehicle damage and raise safety concerns. Multiple speakers described the patchwork of jurisdictional responsibility — portions of streets such as Charleston and Nellis fall under city, county and NDOT control at different segments — and offered to provide a map showing which segments are county responsibility.

Staff reminded the board that Sunrise Manor’s local tax base is limited and that department and county budget decisions are bound by available revenues. The board scheduled the next meeting in the budget-request series and closed the item; no budget allocations or funding commitments were made at the session.
