The full story

The Elko County Board on April 16 approved adopting a Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (CPACE) enabling ordinance for the unincorporated county. County staff said the program would allow eligible commercial property owners to access long‑term private financing for energy and water efficiency improvements, with repayment made through a voluntary, parcel‑specific assessment secured to the property.
