Lyon County commissioner reports FAA grant, helipad approval and infrastructure updates at Dayton advisory meeting
Summary
Lyon County Commissioner John Cassinelli told the board on May 13 that the county received more than $1,000,000 in FAA grants for Silver Springs Airport, reported a zoning amendment approval for a helipad at Central Lyon Fire Station 38, noted a $25,000 change order at J.P.O. for paving, and outlined sewer and bridge planning work.
At the Dayton Regional Advisory Board meeting on May 13, Lyon County Commissioner John Cassinelli summarized several county developments affecting Dayton and surrounding areas.
Cassinelli said Lyon County received grants from the Federal Aviation Administration (F.A.A.; the transcript used the acronym) for Silver Springs Airport totaling "$1,000,000+" as reported at the meeting; the exact amount was not specified in the advisory board report. He also reported that a zoning amendment related to Central Lyon Fire Station 38 — described in the report as permitting a helipad in Dayton — "has been approved" (the speaker reported the approval in his update; the minutes do not provide the approving body's vote or docket number).
The commissioner reported construction and infrastructure items: a $25,000 change order was approved at the J.P.O. for a paving improvement; sewer improvements are ongoing at Rolling A and Aspen Creek; and possible storm drain upgrades near Flowery on Highway 50 in Dayton were noted. Cassinelli also said the county and CAMPO approved the traffic study for the DVR bridge and that Moffitt & Nichols received the engineering contract for that bridge project.
Cassinelli mentioned several county service and personnel items: the V.I.T.A. program has been established in Lyon County high schools to provide free tax preparation assistance to residents, and two positions on the Lyon County Planning Commission are open. He also relayed a Chamber of Commerce notice that a poker tournament and a gun raffle are planned for June 6 at the Odeon.
These items were provided as part of the community reports section; the Dayton Regional Advisory Board minutes do not show separate votes on these county items during the advisory board meeting. Several reported items use acronyms that were not expanded in the meeting transcript (for example, G.I.D., V.I.T.A., J.P.O., CAMPO and DVR). The transcript reports these program and contract developments but did not include detailed dollar amounts or the formal documentation cited for each action during this advisory board session.
