If you use the Carson City Community Center or its Aquatic Facility, Thursday's meeting matters to you. The Board of Supervisors will consider nearly $2.3 million in contracts and contingency funding for repairs, led by a $1.8 million roofing contract with D&D Roofing and Sheet Metal Inc., the lowest of three bids.

A $269,000 contract with Simerson Construction would repair moisture damage in the aquatic facility attic. Supervisors also will consider appointing Thomas Miller acting chief of the Department of Alternative Sentencing, effective Nov. 5.

  • Rapid DNA grant: $450,000 federal, no city match
  • : two-year extension requested
  • Meeting: 8:30 a.m. Thursday, 851 E. William St.
  • Public comment: email publiccomment@carsoncity.gov by 3 p.m. today
  • Watch: carsoncity.gov/granicus or cable channel 191

Near the end, City Manager Glen Martel will update the board, including on a new city hall project. The city recently announced a possible agreement with the Hop and Mae Adams Foundation could not come to fruition, largely because of higher interest rates.

The Wrap

Carson City showed up for the pups and kitties. A monthlong Fill a Vehicle drive at Michael Hohl Chevrolet filled one showroom truck with dog and cat food and supplies, and the overflow started a second. The final haul was 2,551 pounds of pet food and supplies for Feeding Pets of the Homeless. Good dogs, good neighbors.
