Summary

Washoe County staff demonstrated washoecounty.gov tools including email sign-up, a Neighborhood Meeting Hub map, volunteer opportunities, and a neighborhood-specific Community Input Portal for Gerlach; staff said submissions are checked weekly and reported back through the CAB process.

Candy Ramos, Washoe County staff, demonstrated the county's Neighborhood Meeting Hub and community input portal to the Gerlach Citizen Advisory Board and walked through how residents can sign up for email updates, find volunteer opportunities, and submit localized requests or concerns.

"Sign up for email updates that interest you," Ramos said, showing the county homepage and the citizen involvement options for District 5. She highlighted the Neighborhood Meeting Hub's map-based interface that lists project descriptions, developer contact information, and meeting summaries, and she explained how the Community Input Portal feeds weekly reports to county staff and the CAB so the board can report back on actions taken.

Board members praised the portal as a way to let residents submit agenda suggestions or infrastructure concerns without driving to Reno; staff said the portal is neighborhood specific and includes a QR code on the CAB agenda for quick access. The board also discussed upcoming county commission meetings where local residents can give public comment from the community center rather than traveling to Reno.
