A
Good
morning,
I'd
like
to
call
the
subcommittee
on
education
and
cip
to
order,
and
if
you
would
take
the
role
please.
C
C
A
A
Okay,
please
mark
those
as
they
enter
present.
Thank
you
very
much
and
just
as
a
reminder,
we
do
have
some
people
in
the
room
and
we
have
some
people
on
zoom.
A
So
when
we
get
ready
for
a
public
comment,
we
will
be
doing
both
of
those
things
and
today
we
will
be
closing
the
bond
interest
and
redemption
budget,
as
well
as
the
capital
improvement
program
for
the
2123
biennium,
and
so
we
will
get
started
first
on
the
agenda
for
budget
closing
this
morning
is
the
treasurer's
office
bond
entrance
and
redemption
budget,
and
mr
leiser,
you
may
begin
when
you
are
ready.
D
D
This
is
this
account,
provides
the
funding
necessary
to
pay
the
principal
and
interest
on
debt
instruments
issued
by
the
state.
There
are
no
major
closing
issues
in
this
budget.
On
page
four,
I
will
briefly
go
over
two
technical
adjustments
and
potentially
a
fourth
adjustment
depending
on
future
action
of
the
money
committees.
D
The
first
technical
adjustment
is
just
to
align
property
tax
revenues
in
the
budget
for
fiscal
years
22
and
23.
23,
as
submitted
the
governor's
recommended
budget
had
carried
forward
the
base
amount
for
property
tax
revenues,
and
so
this
is
just
a
technical
adjustment
to
align
the
revenue
authority
based
on
projections
that
were
previously
completed
with
those
revenues.
D
I
would
note
with
this
adjustment
that
this
really
is
just
a
budget
reconciliation
item,
that
the
projected
revenues
were
used
by
the
treasurer's
office
in
the
affordability
analysis
and
therefore
these
adjustments
do
not
have
any
impact
on
the
identified
affordability
to
issue
general
obligation,
bonds
in
the
upcoming
biennium.
The
other
closing
item
three.
The
technical
adjustment
here
is
the
2017
legislature
had
approved
the
issuance
of
bonds
to
support
costs
for
the
engineering
building
at
unr
and
funded
the
repayment
of
those
bonds
through
general
fund
appropriations.
D
As
the
subcommittee
members
may
recall,
based
on
the
health
of
the
bond
interest
and
redemption
fund,
the
governor
is
recommended.
Budget
had
removed
the
general
fund
appropriations
from
the
unr
2017
engineering
building
debt
service
budget
and
instead
recommended
to
repay
those
debt
service
costs
through
property
tax
revenues
from
the
bond
interest
and
redemption
fund.
D
So
there's
a
technical
adjustment
here
just
to
remove
the
transfer
of
2.9
million
dollars
in
each
year,
the
upcoming
biennium,
as
reflected
on
the
first
page
of
the
document,
and
would
be
contingent
upon
the
money
committees
approving
the
unr
2017
engineering
building
debt
service
budget.
As
recommended
by
the
governor.
D
D
D
Other
closing
item
three
be
closed
as
a
technical
adjustment
contingent.
Upon
the
money
committee's
future
decision
in
closing
the
nevada
system
of
higher
education
budgets
to
eliminate
general
funds
in
the
2017
engineering
building
debt
service
budget,
other
closing
item
4
be
approved
as
a
technical
adjustment
contingent
upon
approval
by
the
money
committees
to
fund
the
launch
of
the
state
infrastructure
bank,
which
would
include
the
approval
to
establish
a
new
budget
account
in
the
nevada
department
of
transportation.
A
Thank
you
very
much.
Any
questions.
C
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
I'm
just
looking
through
the
package
is
this
the
the
primary
decision
point
for
the
cip
program
as
well,
or
is
this
the
just
for
the
abundant
interest
and
redemption
account.
D
For
the
record
brodie
lizer
ma'am
chair
through
you
to
senator
keith
keffer,
this
is
just
for
the
bond
interest
and
redemption
account.
Okay,
thank
you.
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
for
the
record.
Brodie
lizer
I'll
now
begin
to
go
through
the
governor's
recommended
capital
improvement
program,
and
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
moment
to
sort
of
lay
out
the
plan
for
the
subcommittee
members
as
the
closing
documents
for
the
capital
improvement
program
are
they're
just
different
than
the
normal
operating
budgets
and
closing
documents
that
the
subcommittees
have
and
full
money
committees
have
seen
up
to
this
point.
D
So
there
on
page,
seven
through
nine,
is
a
narrative
summary
that
I
will
go
over
here
in
a
minute
that
talks
about
some
of
the
changes
that
have
occurred
to
the
cip
as
compared
to
initially
submitted
and
recommended
by
the
governor.
D
D
So
on
page,
seven,
as
I
mentioned,
is
a
narrative
summary
of
some
of
the
changes
that
have
occurred
to
the
governor's
recommended
capital
improvement
program.
The
first
area,
I'd
like
to
cover,
are
under
the
cip
funding
changes.
D
The
first
item
is
that,
in
working
with
the
department
of
administration,
we've
identified
9.8
million
dollars
of
bond
proceeds
that
were
previously
issued
and
available
for
reallocation
to
support
a
portion
of
the
2021
capital
improvement
program
of
that
9.8
million
dollars.
Eight
million
dollars
has
been
recommended
to
support
three
new
projects
that
were
submitted
through
a
budget
amendment,
and
I
will
talk
about
those
three
projects
here
in
a
moment.
D
D
The
third
item
is
just
clarification
that
approximately
1.8
million
dollars
that
was
identified
in
the
executive
budget,
as
other
funding
is,
is
actually
federal.
Funds
and
you'll
that'll
be
reflected
in
the
the
summary
sheet
of
the
funding
and
as
well,
and
I
should
have
noted
this
prior,
but
all
all
of
the
funding,
changes
and
funding
sources
for
the
individual
projects
are
identified
on
the
the
closing
sheet
that
that
has
the
table
of
all.
D
I
guess
94
projects,
including
the
the
projects
through
the
amendment.
The
fourth
change
with
the
cip
funding
changes
is
addition
of.
D
Four
711
ninety
five
dollars
in
federal
funds
to
support
a
scope,
expansion
for
project
twenty
one
co3,
so
washoe
county
training
center
edition
I'll
talk
about
this.
This
scope
change
here
in
a
moment,
but
this
was
discussed
during
the
budget
hearing
for
this
project,
and
that
was,
I
believe,
the
april
2nd
meeting
that
this
was
discussed
and
and
the
public
works
division
had
indicated.
An
amendment
was
coming
to
expand
the
scope
of
that
project
and
and
that
that
amendment
was
received
the
last
item
for
clarification
on
the
funding
changes.
D
The
members
may
recall
that
during
the
march
11th
hearing
project
21c04
for
the
cave,
creek
dam
rehabilitation,
the
cip
book
had
identified
that
this
project
would
be
supported
with
2.6
million
dollars
of
state
general
obligation,
bonds
and
6.9
million
dollars
of
federal
funds.
During
the
hearing,
the
department
of
wildlife
had
indicated
that
that
6.9
million
dollars
was
actually
going
to
come
from
a
variety
of
funding
sources
and
that
it
was
not
all
federal
funds.
D
So
we've
worked
with
the
department
of
administration
and
the
department
of
wildlife
to
reconcile
what
the
funding
source
is
to
support
that
portion
of
the
project
and
the
funding
source
would
include
2.3
million
dollars
of
federal
grant
funds,
three
million
dollars
from
funding
from
bonds
issued
under
the
ab-84
program
and
1.6
million
dollars
in
sportsman's
revenue
at
the
bottom
of
page.
Seven,
as
I
indicated,
we
received
a
budget
amendment
on
april
28th
that
included
the
addition
of
three
projects
and
these
projects
are
listed
on
the
closing
document.
D
These
projects
are
recommended
to
be
funded
through
the
issuance
of
general
obligation
bonds.
However,
the
the
bonds
that
would
be
issued
to
support
these
particular
projects
would
have
a
shorter
repayment
term
based
on
the
the
useful
life
of
these
projects,
and
what
I
just
want
would
note
for.
The
subcommittee
is
that,
in
building
the
affordability
analysis
for
the
upcoming
biennium
and
and
subsequent
biennium,
the
treasurer's
office
has
confirmed
that
their
affordability
analysis
did
account
for
the
issuance
of
up
to
approximately
10
million
dollars
of
bonds.
D
There's
one
project
that
has
a
recommended
authority,
decrease
and
and
we'll
talk
about
this
project
in
detail.
But
the
subcommittee
members
may
recall
that
the
cip
project
21mo2,
is
a
project.
It's
a
consolidated
project
to
address
deferred
maintenance
for
the
department
of
health
and
human
services.
D
This
is
a
one
consolidated
project.
That's
based
on
funding
to
support
19
individual
projects
and
during
the
the
march
11th
hearing,
the
state
public
works
division
did
testify
and
confirm
that,
as
a
result
of
consolidating
those
19
projects
that
the
construction
contingency
could
be
reduced
from
15
percent
to
10
percent
and
therefore
that
would
result
in
a
project
reduction
of
one
million
dollars
and
would
be
about
one
million
dollars
in
general
obligation.
Bond
savings.
D
The
next
item
is,
there
was
one
project
that
had
its
authority
increased
and-
and
I
just
mentioned
it
a
few
moments
ago,
as
part
of
the
amendment
that
was
received
on
april
28th.
D
D
D
D
D
A
Thank
you
very
much
any
questions
assemblywomanhotagey.
C
D
I
think
you
for
the
record
brodie
lizer
it.
It
is
normal
that
we
have
project
extensions,
these
come
forward
and
are
requested
every
biennium
by
the
state
public
works
division.
C
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
actually
had
a
different
question,
but
I
kind
of
wanted
to
touch
on
what
what
the
assemblywoman
just
asked.
So,
when
we're
talking
about
project
extensions-
and
this
is
again
my
ignorance
for
sitting
on
this
committee
for
the
first
time,
do
we
reallocate
funds
when
we,
when
we
extend
those
projects
or
do
they
just
continue
with
their
current
funding?
D
I
think
you
for
the
record
brodie
lizer,
the
the
project.
Extensions
are
facilitated
through
the
cip
legislation
and
so
how
it
works.
Is
these
projects
in
the
2017
cip
bill
had
requirements
to
revert
any
unspent
funds
at
the
end
of
the
current
fiscal
year
june,
30th
2021,
and
so
the
way
that
this
is
facilitated
is
that
we
would
go
in,
and
this
you'll
see
this
when
the
the
bill
is
introduced
for
this
biennium.
D
C
Thank
you
for
that.
Brody
madame
sure,
can
ask
another
question.
C
Thank
you,
mr
lizer,
so
when
we're
talking
about
projects
with
a
useful
life
less
than
20
years
and
and
the
in
shortening
the
repayment
term
is
the
repayment
term
in
accordance
with
when
those
projects
useful
life
is
going
to
be
completed
so-
and
I
guess
the
question
is
is
is
when
the
useful
life
has
expired
and
they're
most
likely
going
to
have
to
redo
something
or
start
over
or
replace?
D
For
the
record,
brodie
lizer,
assemblyman
levitt,
I
I'm
not
sure
I
understand
the
question
but
I'll
try
attempt
to
answer
it,
and
if
I
don't
please,
please
let
me
know-
and
I
I
will
answer
your
question.
D
D
At
one
time,
the
state
public
works
division
and
the
department
of
administration
work
with
the
treasurer's
office
to
identify
how
much
bonding
is
going
to
be
needed
for
the
for
the
next
year
and
work
with
the
the
treasurer's
office
and
then
the
board
of
finance
to
go
out
to
issue
only
the
amount
of
bonds
that
are
needed
to
complete
those
projects
that
are
estimated
to
to
get
started
at
that
time.
D
So
the
the
the
20-year
period
for
for
the
bonding
begins.
You
know
upon
issuance
of
the
bonds
now,
depending
on
on
when
the
projects
begin.
D
As
I
indicated,
these
projects
have
a
four-year
life
cycle
to
complete,
and
we
just
we
try
and
look
and
make
sure
that
the
bonds
that
are
being
issued
to
have
a
repayment
with
with
a
repayment
term
of
20
years,
that
the
state
is
not
bonding
projects
that
you
know
only
have
a
useful
life
of
say
five
years
or
so
so
it
really
just
it
depends
on
the
individual
projects
themselves.
A
Thank
you
very
much
additional
questions.
Assemblyman
roberts.
D
C
For
these
projects
you
know
in
2017
there's
a
lot
of
work.
That's
been
done
already,
the
money
has
been
allocated
and
for
whatever
reason
they
just
have
had
trouble.
Completing
the
projects
is
that
accurate.
D
Yes,
okay
and
so
extending
would
make
sense
so
that
we
could
complete
the
projects
that
we
funded
four
years
ago
or
whatever
right
for
the
record
brodylizer.
Yes,
the
the
ultimate
purpose
of
the
project
extension
is
to
ensure
that
public
works
has
time
to
complete
the
projects
as
approved.
That
is
correct.
Thank.
B
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair
again
for
the
record,
brodie
lizer.
So
if
the
members
would
turn
to
page
11
of
their
closing
packet
with
this
page
that
your
your
closing
document
reflects,
there
are
two
sets
of
tables
one
on
the
left
and
one
on
the
right.
The
tables
on
the
left
reflect
a
summary
of
the
governor's
recommended
funding.
D
D
D
The
subcommittee
members
may
recall
that
there
is
a
presentation
provided,
which
is
something
that
that
has
not
occurred
in
prior
biennia,
but
there
was
a
presentation
that
that
was
done
on
march
11th
before
this
subcommittee
about
these
bond
programs,
and
so
just
as
a
brief
recap,
the
governor
recommends
20
million
dollars
of
bonds
to
be
issued
under
the
ab-84
program.
D
The
2019
legislature
had
authorized
the
future
issuance
of
bonds
in
an
amount
not
to
exceed
217.5
million
dollars
to
protect,
preserve
and
obtain
the
benefits
of
the
property
and
natural
and
cultural
resources
of
the
state,
and
the
governor
is
recommending
the
issuance
of
20
million
dollars
of
that
authority.
That
was
approved
last
session.
D
The
lake
tahoe
environmental
improvement
program
was
created
following
the
1997
presidential
forum
at
lake
tahoe
and
is
a
partnership
of
federal
state
and
local
agencies,
private
interests
and
the
washoe
tribe,
and
this
program
is
an
effort
to
support
and
preserve
and
restore
the
lake.
Tahoe
basin
projects
are
carried
out
by
the
nevada
tahoe
resource
team,
which
consists
of
staff
from
the
division
of
state
lands,
state
parks,
forestry
and
the
department
of
wildlife.
D
D
D
So,
madam
chair,
does
the
subcommittee
wish
to
recommend
40
million
dollars
in
general
obligation,
bonds
to
support
for
resource
protection
programs,
including
20
million
dollars
for
the
conservation
bond
program
established
through
the
passage
of
ab-84
from
the
2019
legislative
session?
12
million
dollars
for
the
lake
tahoe
environmental
improvement
program,
four
million
dollars
for
the
cultural,
centers
and
historic
preservation
grant
program
and
eight
million
dollars
for
the
water
infrastructure
grant
program.
B
I
would
move
to
recommend
40
million
in
general
obligation
bonds
to
support
four
resource
protection
programs,
including
20
million
for
the
conservation
baud
program
established
through
the
passage
of
ab-84
from
the
19
legislative
session,
12
million
for
the
lake
tahoe
environmental
improvement
program,
4
million
for
the
cultural
centers
and
historic
preservation
grant
program
and
8
million
for
the
water
infrastructure
grant
program.
D
A
B
A
B
D
So
with
that,
madam
chair,
we'll
begin
going
through
the
the
capital
improvement
program
projects
and
on
page
13
begins
the
the
closing
document
that
will
be
used
to
go
through
the
project.
So
I
want
to
take
just
a
moment,
given
that
we
do
have
that.
There's
some
members
on
the
the
subcommittee
that
are
very
familiar
with
this
sheet
and
some
that
this
is
a
fairly
new
closing
document
and
so
the
closing
sheet
for
the
capital
improvement
program
groups,
projects
by
project
type.
So
the
first
grouping
are
the
construction
projects.
D
Second
grouping
are
the
maintenance
projects,
then
the
economic
development
projects,
and
then
we
have
the
planning
projects
and,
finally,
the
statewide
projects
that
are
recommended
by
the
governor.
Looking
at
the
closing
spreadsheet
working
left
to
right.
What
this
spreadsheet
identifies
are
the
project
number
department,
location
project
name,
the
first
three
columns
that
have
dollar
figures
in
them
recommend
display
the
funding,
as
recommended
by
the
governor
for
these
individual
projects.
D
D
Those
are
projects
that
are
not
identified
to
have
additional
discussion
by
fiscal
staff.
However,
subcommittee
members,
your
discretion,
if
the
members
wanted
to
pull
any
of
those
projects
for
individual
discussion
that
we
certainly
are
more
than
willing
to
accommodate
that.
If
not,
then
fiscal
staff
would
recommend
a
consolidated
motion
to
approve
those
projects
in
in
one
motion
and
then
we'll
begin
to
go
through
the
individual
projects
that
are
identified
to
have
discussion
by
the
subcommittee.
D
D
The
governor
recommends
5.5
million
dollars
to
complete
design
development
through
construction
of
a
seventy
two
hundred
square
foot
heavy
equipment
repair
shop
and
to
renovate
the
existing
forty
six
hundred
square
foot
shop
building
at
the
department's
facility
in
elko
near
the
nevada
youth
training
center.
This
project
is
a
continuation
of
19
po8.
D
This
new
building
would
provide
for
a
facility
that
could
house
larger
equipment
the
need
to
outsource
such
work,
and-
and
this
is
equipment-
that's
used
by
the
department's
division
of
forestry
and
it's
used
across
northern
nevada
for
the
division's
firefighting
efforts.
So,
madam
chair
for
consideration
for
a
motion.
Does
the
subcommittee
wish
to
approve
cip
project
21c01,
as
reflected
on
the
closing
document.
B
A
D
D
D
D
C
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
So
if
we
push
this
to
the
2023,
are
we
still
looking
at
the
contingency
on
the
agency
having
the
funding
available
to
repay
the
bonds?
Is
that
is
that
what
we're
looking
at
is
in
the
hopes
that
they'll
now
have
the
money
to
repay
the
bonds
in
the
future.
A
B
B
So
with
that,
I
would
move
that
cip
project
21c02
not
be
approved
due
to
the
lack
of
funding
to
support
the
debt
service
payments
in
the
2021-2023
biennium
and
direct
the
department
of
administration
if
it
chooses
to
to
request
the
project
as
part
of
the
2023,
cip
and
then
in
doing
so.
The
fleet
services
budget
requests
include
revenue,
revenue
and
expenditure
authority
to
support
the
project
cost
and
the
2325
biennium.
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
The
next
project
is
21c03.
This
is
the
washoe
county
training
center
edition
for
the
nevada
army
national
guard,
as
originally
submitted.
This
was
a
44.6
million
dollar
project
consisting
of
25.3
million
dollars
in
state
general
obligation,
bonds
and
19.3
million
dollars
in
federal
funds
to
design
and
construct
a
55
000
square
foot
addition
to
the
washoe
county
training
center
building
at
the
harry
reid
training
center.
Instead,
the
the
existing
washoe
county
training
center
does
not
currently
comply
with
national
guard
requirements
regarding
facility
allowances
and
the
current
facilities
lack
adequate
training
areas.
D
D
D
There
was
discussion
during
the
hearing
about
the
timeline
with
this
particular
project,
as
construction
would
begin
in
september
of
2023,
and
during
the
hearing
that
the
information
provided
by
the
state
public
works,
division.
State
public
works.
Division
had
indicated
that,
in
order
to
receive
the
federal
funding
by
september
2023
that
the
design
work
for
this
project
must
be
completed
and
that
the
project
must
be
bid
and
in
an
awardable
state
in
order
to
receive
the
federal
funding
award.
D
So
this
was
the
project
that
we
discussed
a
little
bit
earlier
in
term
in
regards
to
having
received
a
budget
amendment
to
account
for
the
necessary
planning
efforts
that
would
be
required
for
the
department
division
of
public
works
to
complete
in
order
for
the
office
of
the
military
to
be
able
to
secure
that
grant.
Funding
for
the
construction
efforts,
and
so
the
governor's
finance
office
did
submit
a
budget
amendment
on
april.
28Th.
D
That
requested
authority
for
this
project
be
increased
by
approximately
1.5
million
dollars,
and
this
is
reflected
in
your
closing
sheet
under
the
revised
columns
and
that
the
amendment
and
the
scope
increase
was
for
the
purpose
of
the
necessary
planning
efforts
in
advance
of
construction,
and
so
madam
chair,
the
motion
or
for
consideration
by
the
subcommittee
would
be
you
know.
Does
the
subcommittee
wish
to
approve
the
cip
project
21c03
as
reflected
on
the
closing
document,
which
is
inclusive
of
the
amendment
that
I
just
discussed.
B
A
D
D
If
the
structural
issues
are
not
addressed,
the
dam
could
be
decommissioned
or
potentially
fail,
which
may
result
in
the
loss
of
the
area
as
a
recreational
destination.
D
The
the
committee
members
may
recall
currently
at
the
dam
it's
it's
actually
being,
I
believe,
there's
a
pump
going
and
or
emergency
siphon
to
to
keep
the
water
levels
low
at
this
particular
lake
as
a
result
of
the
concerns
with
the
the
dam
currently,
as
I
noted
as
we
were
going
through
the
overview.
D
D
The
funding
recommended
to
support
the
project
would
consist
of
2.6
million
dollars
in
in
general
obligation,
bonds,
2.3
million
dollars
in
grant
funds,
3
million
dollars
in
ab-84
bonds
and
one
point
six
million
dollars
in
sports
in
its
revenue
and
as
as
indicated,
those
amounts
are
identified
in
the
remarks
section
of
your
closing
sheet.
So,
madam
chair,
does
the
subcommittee
wish
to
approve
cip
project
21
co4,
as
reflected
on
the
closing
document.
B
A
D
D
The
building
would
include
lab
and
support
facilities
and
spaces
for
teaching
student
projects
and
collaboration
and
for
faculty
and
graduate
students.
The
project
does
recommend
5.8
million
dollars
for
furniture,
fixtures
and
equipment,
and
the
state
public
works.
Division
has
indicated
that
would
cover
100
percent
of
the
facility
needs
for
this
purpose.
D
Just
very
briefly,
the
subcommittee
members
may
recall
that
there
was
funding
approved
in
the
2019
legislative
session
to
support
a
portion.
It
was
going
to
support
a
portion
of
the
needed
cost
to
fund
this
building,
however,
that
the
funds
approved
in
the
2019
session
and
this
that
particular
project
was
canceled
as
part
of
the
budget
reductions
approved
during
the
31st
special
session
of
the
legislature,
and
so
this
project
was
recommended
by
the
governor
to
come
back
and
fully
fund
the
building
for
the
university.
D
I
would
note
that
in
testimony
provided
during
the
hearing,
the
university
did
confirm
that
its
portion
of
the
funding
would
be
supported
through
the
issuance
of
bonds
by
the
university
and
the
debt
service,
for
those
bonds
would
be
paid
back
through
a
combination
of
the
capital
improvement
fees
that
are
charged
to
students
as
part
of
their
registration
fees,
as
well
as
donor
funds.
That
became
available
to
support
that
cert
debt
service,
the
college
of
engineering
at
unlv
is
it
experienced
program
and
enrollment
growth?
D
C
Apologize
for
all
the
questions,
I'm
a
newbie,
and
that's
that's
how
it
goes.
Mr
lizer,
I
made
that
technical
adjustment
is
this,
so
it
looks
like
it's
an
even
split.
Is
this
a?
Is
this
a
required
match
by
the
by
the
university,
or
is
it
just?
They
had
to
make
up
the
difference
in
some
way
and
and
and
we
were
only
going
to
dedicate
so
many
so
much
funds
towards
this
project.
D
For
the
record
brodie
lizer,
assemblyman
levitt,
I
apologize
that
I
can't
give
you
the
exact
biennium,
but
over
the
last
I
would
say
over
the
last
two
or
three
biennium,
the
policy
of
the
legislature
and
policy
of
the
money
committees
for
university
projects
has
been
to
have
a
50-50
split
for
these
projects,
and
so
it's
the
50-50
split,
that's
recommended
here
is-
is
consistent
with
recent
projects
approved
by
this
body
for
the
universities.
B
No
additional
questions,
madam
chair,
just
a
quick
comment:
we
can
vote
on
this
one
and
then
I
think
I
can
go
home
because
we've
finally
gotten
this
thing
done
amen.
So
the
the
folks
who
have
worked
on
this
have
done
a
fantastic
job
of
educating
every
single
person
in
this
building
about
the
importance
of
of
the
cip
project.
B
I
just
think
it's
good
for
us
to
have
it
on
the
record
because
of
some
of
the
confusion
and
difficulties
that
we
had
with
the
medical
school
building
to
make
sure
we're
absolutely
clear
on
the
engineering
building
this.
This
will
be
a
public
works
project
and
that
the
way
the
nrs
reads
is
that
the
state
dollars
are
the
last
dollars
in
so
the
first
half
of
the
dollars
will
come
from
the
other
funding
sources
and
I
truly
hope
the
donors
step
up
as
much
as
possible.
B
A
And
I
appreciate
that
carlton
you're
you're
spot
on
and
this
is
a
much
needed
building
and
we
have
a
really
great
engineering
program
at
unlv
that
we
should
embrace.
So
with
that,
no
more
questions,
I
will
take
a
motion.
B
And
thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
would
very
happily
move
that
21,
c05
engineering
and
academic
and
research
building
be
approved
as
reflected
in
the
closing
documents,
and
I
will
very
happily.
A
A
Oh
yay,
I
I'm
glad
you're
being
happy
there.
Thank
you
very
much,
sir,
and
with
that
all
those
in
favor
say
aye
aye.
All
those
opposed
motion
passes.
Thank
you
very
much,
mr.
D

The
next
project
for
consideration
is
21c06.
This
is

D
D
Anticipate
notification
that
the
project
would
be
considered
for
for
further
review.
At
that
time.
There
was
some
discussion
during
the
subcommittee
hearing
on
this
project
in
regards
to
the
recommended
funding

I'm
going
to
start
to
move
a
little
bit
quicker
here
through
some
of
these
projects.

national
guard
currently
has
12
aircraft,

only
currently
has

the
members
may
recall
there
was
some
discussion.
D
The
previously
approved
cip
project
1903
is
dependent
upon
the
2021
legislature.
Approving
this
project,
as
the
projects
collectively
would
fulfill
the
federal
va
requirement
to
build
a
10-year
expansion
at
the
southern
nevada
veterans,
memorial
cemetery
and
that
specifically,
the
2021
project
for
consideration
today,
would
provide
the
necessary
10
percent
match
for
both
projects
to
be
completed.

D
This
is
for
a
welding
lab
addition

I
apologize,
the

provided
by

college
for
this
project.
The

revenues
would
be
the
funding
source

amount
is
currently
available

Thank
you,
madam
chair.
The
last
construction
project
is
21c13.
This
is
for
the
renovation
of
the
marlette
lecture
hall
at
western
nevada
college.
Here
in

city,
the
governor
recommends
1.5

to
complete
design
development
through
construction
for
the
renovation
of
the
1950

project,
a
continuation
of
project,

p
71
that
had
its
scope
reduced
as
part
of
the
31st
special
session,

therefore
the
21
project
would
complete
the
the
planning
design
efforts
through
construction.
So,
madam
chair,
does
the
subcommittee
wish
to
approve
cip
project
21c13,
as
reflected
on
the
closing
document.
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
As
previously
indicated,
the
closing
document
before
you
has
a
number
of
maintenance
projects
that
are
shaded
in
gray
and
based
on
the
subcommittee's
review
of
these
projects.
During
previous
hearings
and
follow-up
information
provided
to
staff,
there
are
no
major
issues
identified
with
this
subset
of
projects,
so
unless
members
would
like
to
pull
any
of
the
shaded
projects
for
discussion,
fiscal
staff
would
recommend
that
a
single
motion
be
taken
for
consideration
on
these
projects.
D
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
So
the
first
maintenance
project
that
is
identified
to
be
discussed
is
project
21mo2,
who
mentioned
this
project
specifically
in
in
the
overview
before
we
began
the
individual
projects.
D
This
is
the
governor
recommends,
as
initially
submitted
had
recommended,
28.2
million
dollars
in
state
general
obligation,
bonds
to
support
a
single
consolidated,
cip
maintenance
project
for
the
department
of
health
and
human
services,
which
is
a
new
approach
recommended
by
the
governor
for
this
agency
in
the
2021
cip.
D
The
19
individual
projects,
comprising
the
28.2
million
dollars,
as
originally
recommended,
are
identified
as
priority
one
projects
by
the
state
public
works
division.
D
D
D
There
are
several
benefits
identified
by
the
state.
Public
works
division
and
they
indicated
two
primary
benefits
of
the
consolidated
project
approach
and
that
would
be
the
ability
to
address
emergencies
or
contingencies
as
they
arise,
and
the
potential
for
the
division
to
begin
work
immediately
to
fund
priority
two
projects
with
any
savings
that
were
identified
from
priority
one
projects.
D
During
the
budget
hearing
there
was
some
discussion
among
the
the
subcommittee
and
the
state
public
works.
Division
did
testify
to
and
has
provided
information.
That
is
reflected
in
your
closing
document
that,
through
this
consolidated
approach,
the
construction
contingency
that
was
otherwise
budgeted
at
15
could
be
reduced
to
10
percent.
D
D
If
the
subcommittee
wishes
to
recommend
approval
of
the
consolidated
approach,
it
may
wish
to
recommend
that
the
agency
report
to
the
interim
finance
committee,
when
funding
approved
for
any
of
the
19
priority
one
projects,
was
expended
on
either
priority
two
or
emergency
projects.
So,
madam
chair,
well,
fiscal
staff
has
not
identified
any
issues
with
the
individual
projects.
D
D
C,
I
p
project
twenty
one
m,
o
two,
as
recommended
by
the
governor,
with
an
adjustment
to
reduce
the
budgeted
construction
contingency
by
one
million
dollars,
with
total
funding
of
twenty
seven
point,
one
million
dollars
and
as
reflected
on
your
closing
sheet,
this
would
provide
funding
for
the
state
public
works
division
to
complete
all
19
priority.
One
projects
identified
in
the
project,
cost
estimate
and
authorized
the
state
public
works,
division
to
utilize
savings
from
actual
costs
of
any
or
all
19
priority.
One
projects
to
be
used
to
fund
one
or
more
of
the
priority.
D
21
21mo2
as
individual
projects
in
the
cip
legislation
consistent
with
prior
policy
of
the
money
committees
in
approving
maintenance
projects
for
the
department
of
health
and
human
services,
which
would
eliminate
the
one
million
dollars
in
savings,
as
the
construction
contingency
would
be
restored
to
15
percent
for
each
individual
project
at
a
total
cost
of
28.2
million
dollars.
So,
madam
chair,
my
apologies
for
being
a
little
redundant
here,
but
the
question
before
the
subcommittee
would
be.
D
The
second
option:
option
b
would
be
approve
all
nineteen
priority.
One
projects
identified
in
the
c
I
p
project
twenty
one
m,
o
two
as
individual
projects
consistent
with
prior
policy
of
the
money
committees
in
approving
maintenance
projects
for
the
department
of
health
and
human
services,
which
would
eliminate
the
1
million
dollars
in
savings.
As
the
construction
contingency
would
be
restored
to
15
for
each
individual
project.
At
a
total
cost
of
28.2
million
dollars.
A
B
Carlton
and
thank
you
very
much,
madam
chair,
I'm
going
to
admit
this
was
a
tough
sell.
It's
it's
very
rare
that
I
get
comfortable
with
the
legislature,
giving
up
any
of
its
authority,
especially
when
it
comes
to
the
purse
strings
and
making
sure
that
that
projects
do
get
funded.
But
I
believe,
since
these
are
maintenance
projects,
they're
not
quite
as
in-depth
and
and
long-term,
and
we
need
to
keep
these
projects
going
if
we
want
to
have
an
experiment
this
next
interim
on
this
one.
B
I
think
the
quarterly
reporting
will
give
us
a
very
good
idea
on
how
it's
going,
how
they're
getting
through
the
tier
one
projects.
If
we
do
get
to
the
two-tier
projects,
if
there
are
any
emergencies,
I
think
the
communication
level
will
be
high
enough.
That
we'll
be
able
that
this
legislature
during
the
interim
will
be
able
to
evaluate
whether
they'd
like
to
keep
moving
forward
with
us.
So
I
would
be
comfortable
with
option
a
so
that
would
be
my
motion.
A
C
B
Let
me
read
it
off,
then
I
I
I
apologize,
so
I
would
move
to
approve
cip
project
21
mo2,
as
recommended
by
the
governor,
with
an
adjustment
to
reduce
the
budgeted
construction
contingency
by
1
million
dollars,
with
a
total
funding
of
27.1
million
and
as
reflected
on
your
closing
sheet,
recommended
the
issuance
of
a
letter
of
intent,
directing
that
the
agency
report
to
the
interim
finance
committee
on
a
quarterly
basis
summarizing
the
status
of
approved
priority
one
projects,
identification
of
any
savings
realized
by
project
and
identification
when
savings
from
priority
one
projects
was
expended
on
either
priority
two
projects
or
emergency
projects.
A
Thank
you
very
much
assemblywoman
carlton
for
reading
motion,
one
I
guess,
or
the
first
one.
Thank
you
very
much
and
the
second
by
assemblywoman
haruki
any
discussion.
All
those
in
favor
say
aye.
D
D
Just
would
note
that
historically
and
she
has
received
15
million
dollars
each
biennium
for
this
purpose
as
part
of
the
legislatively
approved
cip,
as
previously
indicated
during
the
overview
at
the
beginning
of
this
closing,
the
governor's
recommendation
to
support
this
project
includes
one
million
dollars
in
slot
tax
revenues
would
just
note
that,
based
on
slot
tax
revenue
projections
that
are
used
to
fund
existing
debt
service
obligations
and
with
the
remaining
authority
that
still
exists
to
support
a
portion
of
the
2019.
D
Twenty
three
biennium
to
support
this
project
as
recommended,
and
therefore
the
subcommittee
may
wish
to
consider
replacing
the
one
million
dollars
in
recommended
slot
tax
revenues
with
general
obligation,
bonds
to
fund
the
project
in
whole
at
the
15
million
dollar
level,
consistent
with
the
level
of
funding
that
has
been
historically
approved
by
the
legislature
to
support
deferred
maintenance
at
the
nevada
system
of
higher
education
institutions.
B
And
thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
would
move
as
indicated
to
recommend
approval
of
15
million
in
state
general
obligation,
bonds
to
support
cip
project
21.06
and
not
approve
the
authority
of
the
million
in
slot
tax
revenue
that
was
otherwise
recommended
by
the
governor
for
allocation
to
support
a
portion
of
this
project.
A
D
D
The
governor
recommends
325
three
dollars
in
agency
funds
for
project
twenty
one
m
fourteen
and
two
point:
two
million
dollars
in
agency
funds
for
cip
project.
Twenty
one
m,
forty
four,
similar
to
the
discussion
that
we
had
with
the
fleet
services.
Building
subsequent
information
that
was
provided
by
the
department
has
clarified
that
these
projects
are
not
intended
to
be
funded
with
agency
funds,
but
rather
that
the
projects
would
be
funded
through
the
issuance
of
bonds
with
debt
service
paid
back
from
the
eats
budgets.
D
At
that
time,
madam
chair,
does
the
subcommittee
wish
to
recommend
that
cip
projects,
21
m14
and
21m44
not
be
approved
due
to
a
lack
of
funding
to
support
debt
service
payments
in
the
21
to
23,
biennium
and
direct
the
department
of
administration?
If
it
chooses
to
to
request
the
project
as
part
of
the
2023
cip
and
then
in
doing
so,
the
enterprise
information
technology
services,
budget
requests
include
revenue
and
expenditure
authority
to
support
the
project
costs
in
the
2023-25
biennium.
B
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
would
move
that
cip
projects
21
and
14
and
21
m44
not
be
approved
due
to
the
lack
of
funding
to
support
the
debt
service
payments
in
the
2123
biennium
and
direct
the
department
of
administration
if
it
chooses
to
to
request
the
projects
as
part
of
the
23
cip,
and
that
in
doing
so
that
the
enterprise
information
technology
system
budget
request
include
revenue,
revenue
and
expenditure
authority
to
support
the
project
cost
or
debt
service
payments
based
on
the
recommended
funding
of
the
project.
At
that
time,.
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
The
next
project
for
discussion
is
21m49
purchasing
warehouse
renovation.
D
However,
in
based
on
information
provided
from
the
department
of
administration
and
looking
at
the
anticipated
projecting
ending
balance
in
this
budget
for
fiscal
year
2021,
it
does
appear
that
the
agency's
budget
could
support
100
percent
of
the
project's
costs
in
the
2021-23
biennium.
B
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Lastly,
we
have
two
two
maintenance
projects
that,
as
previously
noted,
were
submitted
through
a
budget
amendment
on
april
28th,
and
given
that
the
subcommittee
did
not
previously
hear
these
two
projects,
these
projects
were
not
included
in
the
consolidated
motion,
but
a
single
motion
could
be
taken
for
these
two
projects
so
21m59.
D
D
The
additional,
as
I
mentioned,
the
additional
funding
to
support
this
project
was
discussed
under
the
funding
summary
and
the
project
would
provide
for
the
renovation
of
the
central
plant
at
the
nevada
state
museum,
las
vegas
to
replace
chilled
water
equipment,
cooling
towers
boilers,
pumps,
temperature
controls
and
other
associated
equipment.
A
D
D
These
are
the
subcommittee
may
may
recall
that
the
projects
are
described
as
economic
development
projects.
A
similar
classification
was
approved
by
the
2011
legislature
for
projects,
but
has
not
been
recommended.
Since
that
time,
the
governor's
recommendation
would
include
6.2
million
dollars,
which
includes
2.3
million
dollars
in
state
funding
for
seven
of
these
e-projects
and
based
on
information
presented
by
the
division.
D
D
A
Thank
you
very
much,
mr
lizer,
and
with
that
any
questions
from
committee.
Seeing
none
I'll
accept
a
motion.
B
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
The
next
group
in
a
project
is
on
18,
page
18
of
your
closing
packet.
This
would
include
the
the
planning
projects
you'll
notice.
There
are
two
projects
highlighted
in
gray
again,
based
on
the
subcommittee's
review
of
these
projects.
During
previous
hearings,
follow-up
information
provided
to
staff.
D
A
Thank
you
very
much
any
questions
not
seeing
any
I'll
accept
the
motion.
B
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chairs.
Now
I
will
begin
to
go
through
the
planning
projects.
The
other
planning
projects,
the
first
being
one
p
zero
one.
The
governor
recommends
four
point:
nine
million
dollars
in
state
general
obligation
bonds
to
complete
the
advance
planning
of
a
complete
renovation
of
the
grant
sawyer
building
in
las
vegas.
D
The
project
would
replace
the
interior,
partitions,
carpets,
wall
coverings,
interior
lighting,
hvac
life,
safety
systems,
plumbing
sewer
modifications
and
elevator
renovations.
The
future
construction
costs
would
be
estimated
at
93
million
dollars
for
this
project.
I
would
note
that
the
project
was
previously
approved
by
the
2019
legislature.
B
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Next
project
is
21p03.
This
is
for
advanced
planning
for
remodel
and
addition
at
the
southern
nevada
veterans
home.
The
governor
recommends
4.2
million
dollars,
consisting
of
2.6
million
dollars
in
federal
funds
and
1.6
million
dollars
in
state
general
obligation,
bonds
to
complete
programming
and
design
through
construction
documents
for
the
renovation
of
an
addition
to
the
southern
nevada
state
veterans
home
in
boulder
city.
D
The
future
construction
project
would
contemplate
renovation,
work
of
82
000
square
feet
of
existing
space,
including
residents,
bedrooms,
common
areas,
central
dining,
the
nurses,
station
physical
therapy,
spaces
staff,
work
areas,
the
chapel,
culinary
and
other
support
spaces.
In
addition,
the
project
would
add:
fourteen
thousand
four
hundred
square
feet
of
new
space
for
resident
rooms.
D
Funding,
if
approved
the
future
construction
and
work,
would
result
in
the
facility
going
from
a
8,
180
bed
capacity
to
120
beds
at
the
facility,
and
I
would
just
note
there
was
some
discussion
during
the
the
hearing
and
in
in
regards
to
the
current
occupancy
of
the
the
home
itself,
and
I
would
just
note
that
information
was
provided
and
presented
when
the
veterans
services
budgets
were
closed
and
at
that
time,
which
I
believe
was
a
week
or
a
week
and
a
half
ago,
the
current
census
at
the
southern
nevada
vets
home,
was
132
residents
with
a
waiting
list
of
32
that
were
expecting
to
be
six
of
those
to
be
admitted
at
the
end
of
april
nine
to
be
admitted
in
in
may
and
17
applications
that
were
being
worked
on
at
the
at
the
time.
D
B
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair
next
project's
21p05.
This
is
for
advanced
planning
or
general
instruction.
Building
at
the
florida
edsel
training
center,
the
governor
recommends
5.4
million
dollars,
consisting
of
4
million
dollars
in
federal
funds
and
1.4
million
dollars
in
state
general
obligation,
bonds
to
complete
design
through
construction
documents
for
a
general
instruction
building
barracks
dining
facility
and
supporting
facilities
within
the
florida
training
center
north
of
the
speedway
readiness
center.
D
The
new
facility
is
required
for
the
421st
regional
training
institute
to
maintain
its
accreditation
for
training.
The
national
signal
non-commissioned
officer
corps
according
to
the
agency,
a
self-contained
educational
facility
with
barracks
and
a
dining
facility
is
required
to
provide
adequate
space
to
conduct
non-commissioned
officer,
enlisted
schools,
military
occupational
skill
courses
and
first
sergeant
courses,
madam
chaired
as
a
subcommittee,
wished
to
approve
cip
project
21p05,
as
reflected
in
the
closing
document.
B
A
D
D
D
The
department
of
motor
vehicles
indicated
that
the
plan
was
to
close
the
donovan
and
henderson
office
and
that
the
new
office
would
would
target
the
customers
that
are
currently
being
served
by
those
office,
and
it
would
be
unable
to
keep
the
donovan
and
henderson
offices
opened
while
maintaining
or
keeping
its
budget
within
the
statutory
highway
fund
cap
that's
set
in
statute
if
all
all
three
of
the
locations
were
kept
open
further
in
regards
to
those
two
locations,
the
department
of
motor
vehicles
had
indicated
that
the
donovan
location
was
in
port.
The
location
itself
was
poor.
D
There
were
ada
issues,
lack
of
workable
space
security
issues
and
a
lack
of
parking
at
the
henderson
office
and
that
the
donovan
location
would
need
a
new
storefront.
It
lacks
classroom,
training
space
and
has
remodeling
needs.
So,
madam
chair,
does
the
subcommittee
wish
to
approve
cip
project
21p06,
as
reflected
in
the
closing
document.
A
B
A
I'll
accept
a
second
on
that
notion.
Okay,
I'll
accept
a
motion
from
assemblywoman,
carlton
and
hagie
to
defer
this
unit
to
the
full
committee
for
discussion
and
with
all
with
that,
is
there
any
discussion.
B
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
there's
some
unanswered
questions
that
I
had
from
my
colleagues
that
I
would
like
to
investigate
a
little
bit
further
and
and
see
where
we
are
and
and
just
go
from
there.
There
were
some
concerns
that
were
raised
and
I
apologize.
It
blew
right
by
me
and
I
didn't
get
some
of
those
answers
so
with
you
with
your
indulgence.
Taking
this
giving
us
a
little
more
time
to
work
on
this
would
would
be
appropriate
at
this
moment.
Thank
you
very
much.
A
Thank
you
very
much,
assemblywoman
carlton
for
the
comments,
and
if
we
have
no
further
discussion,
I
have
a
motion
from
assemblywoman
carlton
and
a
second
from
assemblywomanhottagey
to
defer
this
to
full
committee.
A
D
D
This
project
is
was
one
of
the
three
projects
that
were
submitted
to
be
added
to
the
governor's
recommended
cip
through
the
budget
amendment
that
was
previously
referred
to
and
received
on
april
28th.
B
A
D
You'll
notice,
madam
chair
members
of
the
subcommittee
you'll
notice
a
number
of
projects
in
the
state-wide
section
of
your
closing
document
that
are
shaded
in
gray,
based
on
the
subcommittee's
review
of
these
projects.
During
previous
hearings,
follow-up
information
provided
to
staff.
There
are
no
issues
identified
with
this
subset
of
projects.
D
Unless
members
would
like
to
pull
any
of
the
shaded
projects
for
discussion,
fiscal
staff
would
recommend
a
single
motion
be
taken
for
consideration
on
these
projects.
Madam
chair,
does
the
subcommittee
wish
to
approve
cip
projects
21
s01
through
21
s09,
as
reflected
on
the
closing
document
and
with
authority
for
fiscal
staff
to
make
technical
adjustments.
B
A
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
I
threw
myself
a
curveball
there
with
the
technical
adjustments.
I
will
be
I'll
be
asking
for
that
authority
on
on
all
the
projects
here,
as
we
as
we
wrap
up,
and
I
was
trying
to
avoid
asking
for
that
authority
through
each
and
every
motion
that
you've
taken
today.
So
the
next
project.
That's
on
bless
you,
mr.
A
D
So
the
last
project
for
consideration
today
is
funding
for
the
state
infrastructure
bank,
and
this
is
recommended
in
cip
project
21s11.
The
subcommittee
has
had
a
thorough
discussion
on
this
project
or
on
funding
to
launch
the
bank.
This
was
heard
on
march
11th.
There
was
a
work
session
held
on
april
13th.
D
D
Zero
six,
just
as
a
brief
reminder,
the
bank
was
established
through
the
passage
of
assembly
bill
399
by
the
2017
legislature
for
the
purpose
of
providing
loans
and
other
financial
assistance
to
various
units
of
state
and
local
government
for
the
development,
construction,
improvement,
operation
and
ownership
of
certain
transportation
facilities
and
utility
infrastructure.
D
Would
note
that
launching
the
bank
is
a
priority
of
the
governor,
as
communicated
during
the
state
of
the
state
that
was
delivered
on
january
19
2021
and
is
recommended
to
address
the
needed
infrastructure
upgrades
throughout
the
state
and
as
a
job-creating
measure
for
nevadans
by
utilizing
the
state's
general
obligation
debt
affordability.
D
I
would
note
that
the
following
the
march
11th
hearing
the
department
of
administration
had
provided
a
list
of
162
potential
projects
that
was
provided
to
them
by
the
the
governor's
office
and
that
have
been
identified
for
local
government
by
local
governments
as
shovel
ready
projects
would
just
note
that
the
bank
is
to
be
administered
by
a
board
of
directors
that
would
consist
of
the
nevada
department
of
transportation
director,
the
state
treasurer,
the
director
of
the
department
of
business
and
industry,
the
executive
director
of
the
office
of
economic
development
and
two
members
of
the
public
appointed
by
the
governor.
D
D
So
the
that,
as
I
mentioned,
that
was
discussed
in
the
bond
interest
and
and
redemption
closing,
the
budget,
amendment
itself
will
be
presented
to
the
full
money
committees
when
the
nevada
department
of
transportation
budgets
are
brought
forward
to
the
senate
committee
on
finance
and
assembly
committee
on
ways
and
means.
D
D
The
bill
also
adds
the
director
of
the
office
of
energy
to
the
board
of
directors
and
would
expand
the
list
of
agencies
that
may
provide
technical
support
and
assistance
to
the
bank
to
include
the
department
of
business
and
industry
office
of
economic
development,
department
of
conservation
and
natural
resources.
The
office
of
the
state
treasurer
in
the
office
of
energy.
D
Madam
chair,
given
that
the
state
public
works
division
of
the
department
of
administration
would
not
have
oversight
or
management
responsibility
associated
with
the
state
infrastructure,
bank,
fiscal
staff
would
recommend
that
if
the
subcommittee
recommends
approval
of
the
funding
recommended
by
the
governor
or
funding
at
a
different
level,
other
than
recommended
that
the
cip
project
number
reference
be
removed.
When
the
cip
legislation
is
drafted
and
to
ensure
that
it
is
clear
that
the
bank
is
not
to
be
administered
by
the
state.
Public
works
division
under
the
provisions
of
chapter
341
of
nrs.
C
You,
madam
chair,
I
am
certainly
a
supporter
of
the
infrastructure
bank,
but
I
do
not
support
the
idea
of
using
general
obligation
bonds
to
fund
it
at
this
point,
and
especially
with
some
of
the
changes
that
are
being
allowed
for
within
the
proposed
legislation
using
state
general
obligation,
debt
for
private
and
nonprofit
purposes
outside
of
our
state
infrastructure,
it's
just
a
bit
too
far
for
me.
B
And
thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
I
I
too
understand
senator
kitkefer's
concerns,
but
my
level
of
comfort
is
knowing
that
there's
a
lot
of
off
ramps
on
this
thing
before
it
actually
gets
where
it's
going,
and
this
is
just
a
subcommittee
closing
we've
had
a
lot
of
conversation
about
this.
It
is
a
senate
bill.
I
look
forward
to
seeing
what
it
looks
like
when
it
comes
out
of
the
north
end
of
the
the
building
and
heads
to
the
south
end,
and
so
I'm
comfortable
with
moving
forward.
B
Just
because
I
want
to
see
all
pieces
of
the
puzzle
keep
moving
as
as
we
get
through
this,
not
giving
any
particular
commitment
just
willing
to
to
stay
open-minded
about
where
we
actually
are.
I
understand
the
senator's
concerns,
but
I've
we've
also
had
very
heart-wrenching
meetings
in
health
and
human
services,
so
it's
going
to
be
a
balancing
act
with
where
cash
needs
to
go
this
session
and
where
bonding
needs
to
be
so.
A
B
Thank
you,
chair
don
dela
loop.
I
too
I'm
going
to
oppose.
B
B
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
It
in
same
here
I
I
have
the
same
concerns
that
senator
kikeford
does.
As
far
as
the
obligation
bond,
supporting
fund
positions
and
so
I'll
be
knowing.
I
look
forward
to
legislation,
and
maybe
maybe
I
can
change
my
mind
later.
Thank
you.
A
A
Thank
you
very
much
all
right,
seeing
no
more
discussion.
We
have
a
motion
on
the
table,
all
those
in
favor
say
aye,
all
those
opposed
would
those
who
are
opposed.
Please
raise
your
hand,
so
the
secretary
can
get
an
accurate
count.
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Finally,
fiscal
staff
would
request
authority
to
make
technical
adjustments
as
necessary
to
the
cip
projects
and
to
the
state
infrastructure
bank
that
have
been
recommended
for
approval
by
the
subcommittee.
A
B
A
Again,
thank
you
very
much.
Assemblywoman
carlton
and
assemblywomanhottagey
any
discussion.
All
those
in
favor
say
aye
all
those
opposed
motion
passes.
Thank
you
very
much
and
with
that
I
would
like
before
we
go
to
public
comment,
which
is
the
last
thing
on
our
agenda.
I
would
like
to
thank
our
staff
profusely
as
well
as
the
secretaries
and
sergeant-at-arms
who
hang
in
there
with
us
each
day.
We
appreciate
all
your
time
and
and
expertise
with
that.
Oh
yes,
assemblywoman
and.
B
B
So
when
we
were
going
a
and
b
it's
not
that
the
documents
weren't
available,
they
were
merely
provided
to
staff
to
us
just
to
make
sure
that
we
got
this
thing
done
right,
the
first
time
around,
so
we
wouldn't
have
to
come
back
and
do
it
again
because
we
know
cips
are
very
complicated
and
it's
one
of
my
favorite
bills
of
the
session,
because
I
always
look
at
it
as
the
jobs
bill.
So
it's
it's
not
that
we
didn't
mean
to
give
documents
to
folks.
B
These
were
just
merely
met
to
make
sure
that
those
of
us
working
the
motions
had
everything
in
line
the
way
we
needed
it
to
be.
So
I
apologize
for
any
confusion
that
that
may
have
brought
up
during
the
meeting.
A
Thank
you
very
much,
assemblyman
carlton.
I
had
that
on
a
list
to
say
as
well.
So
I
appreciate
you
saying
that
so
ditto
with
that
we
will
go
to
public
comment
broadcasting
when
you're
ready
just
a
reminder
that
we
will
start
here
in
the
room
and
we
have
one
person
for
public
comment.
Please
go
ahead
when
you're
ready.
You
have
two
minutes.
Thank
you.
C
Thank
you,
madam
chair
chris
daley
nevada,
state
education
association.
Since
the
introduction
of
sb
543
two
years
ago,
nscas
expressed
numerous
policy
concerns
with
the
new
funding
plan,
including
the
fact
that
it
contained
no
new
revenue
in
lieu
of
new
funding.
Sb543
created
the
commission
on
school
funding,
charged
with
recommending
funding
targets
and
identifying
revenues
to
fully
fund
the
associated
costs.
On
april
23,
the
commission
published
their
preliminary
recommendations,
while
nsca
opposed
sb543.
We
largely
agree
with
the
commission's
funding
targets.
C
The
commission
proposed
reaching
adequate
funding
by
increasing
education
investment
by
2
billion
over
the
next
10
years.
That's
400
million
each
biennium
starting
this
session.
In
their
revenue
plan,
the
funding
commission
focused
on
property
tax
and
expanding
the
base
of
sales.
Tax
nsca
has
been
supportive
of
numerous
proposals
to
address
nevada's
property
tax,
including
sjr,
14
and
2017..
C
However,
this
session,
even
simple
property
tax
reforms
like
sb10
and
sb
64,
failed
to
clear
the
first
bill
deadline
in
the
senate.
Nsca
has
consistently
raised
concerns
related
to
sb
543.
Since
the
bill,
bill's
committee
hearing
during
the
interim
nsa
participated
in
every
meeting
of
the
commission
on
school
funding,
we
called
attention
to
the
chronic
underfunding
of
public
education,
including
organizing
four
major
rallies
here
in
carson
city
in
the
last
two
years.
C
Meanwhile,
sb543
was
developed
behind
closed
doors,
wasn't
introduced
until
the
99th
day
of
the
session
had,
but
a
single
public
hearing
with
the
bill
passing
minutes
before
sani
die.
This
bill
created
the
commission
on
school
funding,
which
has
recommended
funding
targets
and
a
revenue
plan
to
meet
these
targets
over
the
course
of
10
years.
B
A
All
right,
believing
that
we
have
had
sufficient
time
for
everybody
to
call
in.
I
thank
the
committee
and
once
again
thank
all
the
staff
and
with
that
this
meeting
is.
