Commission amends code language on Planning Commission appointments; first reading set
Summary
The board approved first reading and set a public hearing for Ordinance 20205-1 to align Elko County Code with NRS 278.040 and amended proposed text to replace 'governing body' with 'Board of County Commissioners' and remove an optional 'elected official' exclusion.
The board took first reading of Ordinance 20205-1 to align county code with state statute regarding Planning Commission membership and meeting frequency. The proposed ordinance would revise Elko County Code Title 2, Chapter 4 to conform to NRS 278.040, which allows different meeting cadence and membership language than the County's seventies-era code.
During debate a commissioner (speaker 5) moved to change language in two places from "governing body" to "Board of County Commissioners" and to remove a phrase excluding "any elected official"; the amendment was seconded and adopted. The board then set the matter for public hearing and possible adoption. No public hearing was held at this meeting; the first-reading motion passed and the ordinance will return for public hearing on the noticed date.
