A
Okay,
thank
you
so
much
good
morning.
Everyone
I'd
like
to
call
this
meeting
to
order.
This
is
the
joint
committee
between
assembly
ways
and
means
and
senate
finance
for
the
subcommittee
on
public
safety,
transportation
and
natural
resources.
With
that
committee
secretary,
will
you
please
take
roll.
B
C
D
E
B
A
Here,
thank
you
for
that.
Just
a
few
housekeeping
items
again,
we
will
have
public
comment
at
the
end
of
our
briefings.
Also,
if
you
want
to
register
for
that,
you
may
do
so
on
the
agenda.
That's
posted
on
nellis
also
would
like
everyone,
that's
joining
us
and
participating
to
know
that
we
will
have
members
coming
and
going
throughout
the
presentations
it's
just.
This
is
the
time
of
season
where
members
have
to
go
and
present
their
own
bills
and
other
committees.
A
So
if
you
see
their
camera,
go
going
off,
that's
what's
happening,
they're,
actually
in
another
committee
presenting
so
with
that
we'll
go
ahead
and
we
have
a
few
different
budgets
we
will
hear
from
today.
We
have
the
account
for
off
highway
vehicles,
state
parks,
state
lands
and
the
division
of
outs
of
outdoor
recreation.
F
A
F
F
H
F
F
F
Butter
of
the
program
is
to
administer
an
ohv
grant
program
exceeding
awards
of
approximately
one
million
dollars
per
year.
We
want
to
promote
safe
and
responsible
ohv
recreation,
we'd
like
to
expand
the
quantity
and
quality
of
ohv
opportunities
around
the
state
through
kind
of
united
messaging
under
our
program's
umbrella.
F
One
item
that
we've
noticed
over
the
past
two
years
is
the
difficulty
in
obtaining
an
ohv
registration
and
the
complexity
of
the
registration
process.
This
results
in
very
low
compliance
with
nevada,
revised
statute
490.
Therefore,
we
are
tracking
senate
bill,
170
that
aims
to
simplify
that
registration
process
and
put
that
sticker
in
the
hands
of
the
user.
F
The
slide
is
a
is
a
depiction
of
where
we've
spent
the
ohv
registration
dollars
since
2019.
annually
we
award
approximately
1
million
dollars
of
funding,
and
the
graphic
to
viewers
write
shows
exactly
where
those
projects
are.
The
color
coding
is
the
different
categories
that
we've
been
able
to
fund
things
like
education,
outreach
projects,
trail
building
law
enforcement
are
all
important
ways
that
we
use
these.
These.
B
F
I
F
B
F
F
Investments
from
the
ohv
program
in
the
past
two
years
is
the
nevada
mapping
collaborative
it
was
established
in
2018,
it's
funded
annually
by
the
oh,
by
a
grant
from
the
ohb
program,
as
well
as
some
multiple
other
funding
sources,
including
federal
funds
from
the
recreation
trails
program.
The
greatest.
F
F
Expenditures
to
are
for
the
biennium
are
309
747
they're,
broken
up
into
personnel
costs
operating
and
travel
with
a
few
number
of
minor
details.
F
B
F
However,
we
we
request
an
annual
budget
of
1.5
million
to
cover
new
grant
awards,
as
well
as
all
of
the
previous
years
grants
that
that
aren't
necessarily
completed
in
one
one
year.
At
the
end
of
fiscal
year,
2023,
we
expect
to
have
an
ending
reserve
balance
of
one
million
four
hundred
and
eighty
one
thousand
two.
Seventy
three.
The
intent
here
is
to
reduce
the
amount
of
dollars
we
have
in
the
reserve
of
this
revolving
account
so
that
we
can
show
our
registration
dollars
are
being
put
on
the
ground.
K
I
F
F
The
next
slide
is
to
cover
our
budget
enhancements
over
the
past
two
years.
We've
noticed
that,
through
our
grants,
where,
while
we
want
umbrella,
uniform
messaging,
we're
finding
that
our
messaging
and
our
outreach
differs
between
different
grant
projects
and
and
their
like
associated
activities,
so
getting
into
our
enhancements
we're
requesting
a
few,
some
more
funding
for
the
program
to
better
unify
that
messaging
to
the
ohv
community.
The
first
item
is
enhancement
251
and
that
involves
the
purchase
of
an
enclosed,
trailer
and
basic
vehicle
maintenance.
F
Currently
we
have
a
stack
of
outreach
materials
providing
education
and
registration.
I
guess
methods
steps
to
get
your
registration
sticker
and
we've
been
dispersing
these
materials
through
the
grants
statewide.
We
also
have
a
ohv
off
highway
vehicle
utv,
funded
in
part
by
a
grant
from
the
yamaha
outdoor
access
initiative.
This
utv
is
sits
at
the
washoe
yard
and
currently
is
exposed
to
the
elements
we
just
want
to
provide
some
shelter
for
that.
F
Fiscal
year
2023
we
need
who
are
seeking
two
thousand
dollars
just
to
maintain
three
pieces
of
equipment.
That's
the
state
admin
vehicle,
the
ohv
and
the
trailer
e-252
we're
increasing
we're,
requesting
increased
funding
for
out-of-state
travel
and
that's
to
better.
F
F
E-253
is
basic
website
maintenance
services
and
includes
a
forwarding
address
from
from
a
separate
hosting
site.
E-255
restores
funding
for
grant
projects.
This
goes
back
to
my
previous
statement
about
wanting
to
get
our
funding
out
of
the
reserve
accounts
and
onto
the
ground
in
the
form
of
grant
projects.
A
Thank
you
so
much
and
we
actually
do
have
a
number
of
questions
coming
in
from
members.
So
the
first
question
will
come
from
assemblyman
watts.
I
Thank
you
very
much,
madam
chair.
Mr
narcady,
it's
good
to
see
you
again,
so
I
appreciate
the
the
statements
that
have
been
made
in
the
plan
to
get
more
dollars
out
onto
the
ground
in
the
form
of
grants.
I
have
one
or
maybe
a
couple
questions.
I
Could
you
just
give
us
a
little
bit
more
background
on,
and
I
think
you
mentioned
this
briefly,
how
you
you
allocate
grants,
but
then
the
funding
for
them
there's
a
lag
in
that
actually
getting
out
out
the
door,
and
so,
as
a
result,
it
looks
like
the
amount
that's
been
budgeted
in
previous
fiscal
years
has
not
been
utilized.
I
So
can
you
can
you
just
give
us
a
little
bit
more
background
into
how
the
process
works
and
why
we
haven't
seen
those
those
amounts
kind
of
line
up
with
the
previous
grant
allocations
and
what
the
timeline
tends
to
look
like
for
some
of
these
projects
from
the
date
of
award
to
completion.
F
Thank
you.
Yes,
the
ohp
grant
program.
We
watch
it
with
a
fine-tooth
comb.
It's
a
the
grant.
Awards
are
completed
annually
through
our
nine-member
ohv
commission,
and
then
they
kind
of
come
to
my
desk
to
make
sure
that
our
the
budgets
that
are
requested
are
exactly
what's
being
funded
on
the
ground.
The
ohb
grant
program
is
a
reimbursement
grant,
so
we
go
back
and
forth
with
our
grantees,
making
sure
that
all
of
their
receipts
that
they're
submitting
and
time
cards
total
the
amount
that
they're
requesting.
F
Admittedly,
when
I
first
came
into
the
program,
I
was
expecting
these
grant
projects
to
go
quickly
and
on
an
annual
basis
right
now,
we're
finding
that
our
education
and
outreach
funding
is
spent
is
spent
faster
than
some
of
the
larger
projects
like
trail
building
trail
building
requires
a
number
of
environmental
assessments
or
documents,
especially
if
they're
taking
place
on
federal
land
and
to
go
through
the
that
process
is
what
is
taking
a
lot
of
time
on
those
on
the
trail,
building
and
infrastructure
projects.
B
F
I
Thank
you,
that's
very
helpful
and
if
I
may
very
quickly
follow
up
madam
chair,
so
thank
you
so
and
then
you
know
you
gave
a
good
overview
of
the
revenue
that's
coming
in
into
your
agency,
and
can
you
just
speak
a
little
bit
to
how
the
reserves
have
been
developed?
Is
that
a
result
of
the
this
kind
of
lag
that
we
see
in
the
grant
allocations
getting
out
the
door
or
was
it
the
the
result
of
some
more
cautious
budgeting
to
make
sure
that
that
the
agency
is
sound
and
and
yeah?
F
F
F
I
G
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
have
several
questions.
If
I
might,
the
first
I'm
sir,
I
know
you're
new
to
this
program,
but
I
will
let
you
know
that,
since
the
time
I've
become
in
legislature,
this
is
my
fourth
session.
I've
been
trying
to
get
a
rid
of
the
ohv
program.
I
was
always
concerned
about
this
registration
process
and
what
the
funds
were
going
to
be
used
for,
and
actually
it
seems,
like.
G
My
fears
are
actually
realized
in
that
you're
building
up
a
lot
of
money
in
there
and
not
really
putting
it
back
out,
regardless
of
of
why
you
say
that
is
any
thought
to
actually
decreasing
the
amount
of
the
fees.
F
Thank
you,
assemblywoman
titus,
nikhil
marquette
for
the
record.
The
fees
are
mandated
by
nrs
to
be
within
twenty
dollars
and
maximum
of
thirty
dollars,
and
right
now
we're
at
the
minimum
there.
It's
a
twenty
dollar
fee,
annual
registration
fee
with
a
one
dollar
technology
fee
and
in
the
eyes
of
the
ohv
user,
that's
kind
of
a
drop
in
the
bucket
when
you're
filling
your
gas
tank
each
day.
G
So
right
now
I
beg
to
differ
with
you
as
a
ohv
user
and
many
it
may
not
be
a
drop
in
the
bucket
to
some.
You
mentioned
your
you
had
some
equipment
or
that
you
did
and
you
had
some
matching
fun
from
the
federal
government.
How
much
monies
have
you
actually
gotten
matching
funds
from
the
federal
government.
F
I
F
G
F
Thank
you,
assemblywoman
titus,
I
shouldn't
quote
a
specific
amount,
but
I
can
describe
the
law
enforcement
projects
and
where
they
are
across
the
state.
We're
working
with
the
las
vegas
metro
police
department
out
of
moapa
valley.
They
receive
ohv
funding,
mesquite
police
department,
also
in
clark
county,
receives
ohb
funding
across
the
state.
We
also
partner
with
the
county
sheriff's
department.
B
F
G
Oh
thank
you.
I
appreciate
that
and
I
I
I
would
like
to
see
a
breakdown
of
all
with
us
funding
and
those
projects
have
gone
and
I'm
sure
the
other
committee
would
like
to
see
that.
So,
madam
sheriff,
that's
okay.
I
could
ask
that
he
submitted
to
the
staff
so
that
we
can.
G
Of
where
you're
we're,
where
those
grants
have
been,
I
am
just
concerned
that,
with
with
some
of
them,
watson's
quite
line
of
questioning
about
the
increasing
reserves
that
are
there-
and
I
just
don't
accept
that
last
year,
you
weren't
able
to
do
anything
because
of
the
kobe
crisis,
because,
frankly,
our
parks
and
our
country
and
every
single
area
in
the
state
of
nevada
that
could
possibly
have
a
ohv
site.
They
were
packed
because
folks
wanted
to
get
outside.
G
So
I
think
there
was
a
increased
utilization
and-
and
I
worry
about
the
impact
on
our
natural
environment-
and
you
know,
I'm
all
supportive
of
actually
trails
and
designated
riding
areas
so
that
we
don't
destroy
the
other
area
that
we
want
to
protect.
So
I'd
really
like
to
see
a
more
detailed
use
of
what
you,
what
you're
doing
with
the
monies
and
where
this
is
going
and
encourage
you
to
be
a
little
bit
more
proactive
on
getting
these
funds
out
where
they
need
to
go.
So.
I
Thank
you,
chair
miller,
good
morning,
mr
arcadie.
I
I
want
to
go
back
to
slide
four
and
about
the
grant
awards
and
if,
if
the,
if
the
map
is
any
indicator
of
of
where
the
awards
went,
I
don't
know
if
it's
the
dollar
amount
it's
indicative
of
the
dollar
amount.
But
if
it's
any
indicator
it
seems
as
if
the
most
populous
county
in
the
state
that
is
paying
a
really
good
portion
of
all
the
fees
going
into
this
grant
program
got
relatively
few
projects.
I
Is
there?
Is
there
any
do
you
know
what
the
revenue
breakdown
is
across
the
state
that
goes
into
this
program
from
registrations
and
then
roughly
how
what
the
breakdown
is
and
where
the
money
was
spent?
I
If
those
little
dots
mean
dollars,
then
it
was,
it
was
80
of
it
was
spent
out
of
clark,
county
and,
and-
and
I
know
my
neighbors
and
I
know
I
do,
and
I
know
my
family
does
all
contribute
to
that
fund
and,
and
so
and
many
many
folks
down
in
my
neck
of
the
woods
do
is:
do
you
have
rough
estimates
on
on
the
breakdown
between
spending
and
revenue.
F
F
Yes,
I
do
have
revenue
by
county
and
I'm
happy
to
provide
those
numbers
afterwards.
That's
a
that's!
A
simple
excel
spreadsheet
right
now,
there's
no
mechanism
to
guarantee
that
the
revenue
generated
in
clark
county
is
only
spent
in
clark
county,
we're
required
to
judge
all
of
the
grants
that
come
in
statewide.
F
Equally
for
this
funding,
the
colored
dots,
yes,
you're
correct.
They
do
represent
the
projects
in
clark
county
since
2019,
and
then
I
guess
it
will
take
a
closer
look.
But
there
are
great
dots
on
here
that
represent
projects
in
seasons
past
again,
going
back
to
the
education
and
outreach
component
or
for
finding
these
projects.
I
Can
we
have
a
follow-up
chair
miller?
Yes,
please
senator
yeah,
so
I
would
just
you
know
on
behalf
of
senator.
I
would
urge
you
to
be
more
proactive
to
spend
that
clark
county
money
that
you
raised
in
clark,
county
and
there's
you
say,
there's
no
mechanism,
but
the
mechanism's
you
you're.
This
is
your
program,
and
so
I
I
would,
I
would
love
to
see
you.
I
You
know
I'm
I'm
assuming
you're
in
carson
city
and
I
would
love
to
see
you
maybe
work
more
with
the
most
populous
county
in
the
state
to
really
expand
some
of
those
opportunities
for
the
folks
down
there.
B
Thank
you
chair.
I
had
a
question
related
to
the
work
you're
doing
and
the
overlap
with
the
department
of
outdoor
recreation
and
do
you
guys
collaborate
or
have
you
collaborated
yet
on
identifying
projects
that
enhance
that
depart
or
the
office
of
outdoor
recreations
activities
in
the
state?
And
then
I
have
a
follow-up
question
after
that.
F
Mr
dominique
educoy,
the
deputy
director
of
dcnr
and
colin
robertson,
the
administrator
of
outdoor
recreation,
mr
robertson,
and
I
speak
on
a
weekly
basis,
if
not
more
frequently,
and
make
sure
that
there
is
collaboration
for
those
interagency
grant
projects.
So
yes,
that
communication
is
very
clear
and
if
I
could
dominique.
H
Deputy
director
of
nevada,
department
of
conservation
and
natural
resources
for
the
record-
yes,
that
is
something
we
have
been
actively
working
towards
as
a
department.
Outdoor
recreation
certainly
encompasses
off
highway
vehicle
recreation
and
we
have
been
working.
B
H
The
new
administrator
for
outdoor
recreation
to
help
manage
this
off-highway
vehicles
grant
program
and
that's
something
we're
going
to
see
more
and
more
of
as
we
move
forward.
We
think
that's
working
very
well.
We
have
a
lot
of
different
users
who
are
interested
in
outdoor
recreation,
working
together
to
figure
out
best
to
manage
these
landscapes,
to
ensure
that
we're
not
impacting
these
natural
areas
and
that
we're
avoiding
any
of
the
conflicts
that
might
exist
between
the
user
group.
So
that
is
a
great
question
and
it's
something
we're
going
to
continue
to
try
to
improve
on.
B
Awesome,
that's
exciting
and
really,
I
think,
beneficial
to
the
state
to
have
that
overlap.
My
other
question
has
to
do
with.
If
I,
if
I
may
chair,
I'm
sorry.
B
Thank
you
has
to
do
with
your
grant
program
and
I'm
wondering
about
the
difference
between
the
reimbursement,
grants
first
grant
program
and,
if
there's
barriers
to
entry
for
some
projects,
because
they
don't
have
those
up
front
funds
to
potentially
fund
their
pro
their
programs
and
if
you've
thought
about
allocating
a
portion
of
those
grants
to
like
seed
programs.
That
would
be
paid
for
up
front
and
then
worked
with
on
through
the
department
in
a
in
kind
of
a
different
like
supporting
manner.
F
Thank
you,
assemblywoman
peters,
the
killing
arcade
for
the
record.
Currently
we
only
operate
on
a
reimbursement
basis
and
to
alleviate
the
stress
on
some
of
those
smaller
groups.
We
reimburse
on
a
more
frequent
basis.
So
if
there's
an
ohv
club
that
doesn't
have
a
ton
of
reserve
funding
in
their
accounts,
then
we
break
up
that
project
into
a
month
by
month
or
week
by
week
basis,
so
that
right
as
soon
as
they
submit
their
receipts,
we're
putting
that
funding
back
in
their
pocket.
B
I
would
be
curious
if
there's
any
any
statutory
barriers
to
you
for
doing
that.
If
you
don't
mind,
following
up
on
your
your
interpreted
authority
on
a
seed
program
like
that.
A
Thank
you,
assemblywoman,
not
seeing
any
additional
questions.
Thank
you
so
much
on
your
presentation
for
this
budget.
A
We
can
go
ahead
and
move
on
to
our
next
budget,
which
is
for
state
parks,
and
I
believe
we
have
bob
margell
may
have
butchered
that
name
as
well
too.
Please
correct.
E
E
Good
morning,
chairman
miller,
yes,
bob
mcgill
administrator
for
division,
state
parks
for
the
record.
I'm
technology
challenge
so
we'll
see
how
this
goes
hold.
It.
A
And
if
do
you
mind
if
we
stop
after
each
budget
for
questions,
does
that
flow
correctly
with
your
presentation,
or
would
you
rather
do
the
entire
presentation
and
we
circle
back
on
our
questions.
E
I'm
happy
to
do
it
either
way.
So
as
we
get
to
each
though
I
only
have
one
budget
account
4162.,
but
I
can
pause
throughout
it
and
see
if
there's
any
questions
so
far,.
A
A
B
E
All
right,
good
morning,
turn
miller
and
members
of
the
committee.
My
name
is
bob
miguel
administrator
for
the
division
of
state
parks.
So,
let's
see
if
we
can
work
our
way
through
this
thing,
all
right.
Our
mission
is
to
develop
and
manage
nevada's
system
of
parks
and
recreation
areas,
contribute
to
a
vibrant
economy
and
protect
areas
of
scenic
historic
and
scientific
importance.
E
In
other
words,
we
get
to
manage
all
the
cool
stuff
that
nevada
has
to
offer
and
make
sure
that
it's
available
for
our
grandchildren's
grandchildren.
So
what
we
do?
We
manage
27
parks,
they're,
spread
out
throughout
the
state,
and
we
manage
those
in
four
regions-
western
eastern
southern
and
then
the
lake
tahoe
area
is
its
own
region.
E
We
offer
a
number
of
interpretive
programs
throughout
the
year.
Those
are
pre-co
bid
numbers,
but
we
did
manage
to
still
do
some
programming
even
during
the
the
covet
pandemic,
just
with
significant
decreases
in
the
numbers
of
people
that
we
allowed
to
show
up
to
those
programs.
We
provide
affordable
recreation
opportunities
for
for
families
and
just
people
in
general.
So
I
think
we
all
recognize
the
the
health
benefits
and
this
gov
pandemic.
Really.
E
E
So
our
our
budget
is,
as
you
can
see,
about,
split
between
user
fees
and
and
general
fund
is
where
our
revenue
comes
from.
There's
some
other
sources
thrown
in
there.
Marina
gas
tax
is
the
next
largest
chunk
and
then
some
other
miscellaneous
revenue,
but
largely
we're
dependent
on
general
fund
and
user
fees
and
then
here's
our
expenditures.
As
you
can
see,
the
vast
majority
of
our
of
our
money
goes
to
personnel.
E
It
takes
people
to
run
parks
and
keep
them
open,
and
so
that's
where
the
vast
majority
of
our
of
our
budget
is
spent,
the
rest
of
it
is
operating,
and
then
you
can
see
the
other
smaller
portions
there,
but
primarily
people
and
then
the
material
that
it
takes
to
keep
parks
open
and
safe
and
clean
for
the
for
the
public.
So
now
we'll
run
through
these,
and
I
I
guess
I'll
I'll
pause
at
each
one
and
see
if
there's
there's
any
questions,
if
that's
how
you
prefer
to
do
it.
A
E
Okay,
so
e252
is
additional
funding
for
cap4
category
4
is
our
operating
budget.
So
that's
where
all
of
our
cleaning
supplies
operate
supplies
all
that
type
of
stuff.
So,
as
you
can
all
imagine,
during
the
pandemic,
we've
always
kept
our
bathrooms
clean,
but
the
frequency
has
had
to
increase
so
we've
as
visitation
increases,
so
does
the
impacts
to
our
facilities,
so
we're
going
to
have
to
clean
more
frequently
when
there's
more
visitors,
the
next
category,
the
254
is
temporary
office
building
at
vancicle,
so
vancicle
by
state
park.
E
E
Picnic
tables
that
type
of
stuff
it
gets
a
pretty
significant
amount
of
walk-in
use
day
use
up
there,
so
we
do
need
a
place
for
our
one
employee
to
be
able
to
get
on
their
computer
and
check
emails.
Do
their
time
sheets,
all
that
type
of
administrative
stuff
that
that
we
still
have
to
do.
E
The
next
one
is
contract
costs
for
the
biennial
state
parks
academy.
So
several
sessions
ago
we
were
able
to
establish
funding
to
do
a
bi
annual
state
park
academy.
So
once
every
two
years
we
try
to
get
as
many
of
our
employees
together
in
one
place
as
possible
to
go
through
various
things
like
oh
personnel,
procedural
updates
and
we
bring
in
other
outdoor
recreation
professionals,
whether
it's
from
the
national
park
service
or
blm
forest
service.
But
we
bring
in
speakers
to
speak
on
a
variety
of
different
topics.
E
So
this
is
adding
some
extra
cost
for
the
contract
costs
when
we
do
that,
we
enter
into
a
contract
with
generally
a
hotel
casino,
some
type
of
thing
that
allows
for
of
the
oh,
like
a
convention
center
room
or
someplace
that
we
can
actually
all
gather
and
then,
lastly,
on
this
page
and
then
I'll,
ask
if
there's
any
questions
for
anything
on
this
page.
The.
B
E
Item
is
additional
funding
cap
59,
which
is
our
utility
category,
so
we've
increased
campgrounds
with
hookups,
for
instance,
we've
put
in
cabins
a
lot
of
various
things
that
that
have
increased
our
utility
costs,
and
so
this
is.
This
is
looking
to
make
that
category.
I
guess
hold
so
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
on
this
page
before
we
go
to
the
next.
A
Okay,
senator
dennis
I,
I
know
you
have
a
question:
did
you
want
to
ask
that
now
or
did
you
want
to
wait.
A
Okay,
let's
go
ahead
and
do
that.
Please
continue.
E
Okay,
sure
so
again,
bomb
reveal
for
the
record.
The
next
one
is
the
replacement
of
tourism
funding.
So,
as
everybody
I'm
sure
is
aware,
the
tourism
budget
comes
primarily
almost
exclusively
from
room
tax,
so
with
a
lack
of
people
occupying
beds
down
in
the
well,
I
guess
statewide,
really
it
it
impacted
their
budget
significantly.
So
we
normally
get
a
transfer
from
tourism.
E
They
were
not
able
to
do
that
because
they
just
didn't,
have
the
money
to
do
it.
So
this
category
contemplates
not
getting
that
that
transfer
in
fiscal
year
22
and
then
they're
anticipating
to
be
able
to
go
ahead
and
give
us
the
transfer
again
in
23,
but
we're
asking
for
general
fund
to
offset
that
lack
of
a
of
a
transfer
in
22.
E
p262
is
additional
funding
for
cat
7,
which
is
our
buildings
and
grounds
maintenance.
Again,
as
I
mentioned,
our
visitation
continues
to
go
up.
That's
more
wear
and
tear
on
all
of
our
facilities,
and
we
we
have
to
do
the
maintenance
to
those
facilities
in
order
to
keep
them
open
to
the
public.
E
E
E710
is
replacement
computers
per
the
heat's
replacement
schedule,
so
this
is
asking
for
replacement
computers
for
computers
that
have
exceeded
their
age
per
the
each
replacement
schedule,
e712,
establishment
of
a
radio
replacement
schedule,
so
we
are
heavily
dependent
on
radio
communications
in
order
to
fulfill
public
safety.
You
know
requirements
and
and
be
able
to
communicate
from
staff
to
staff.
Well,
all
of
those
radios
need
to
be
replaced
on
occasion.
E
They
they
all,
have
a
a
life
expectancy
if
you
will
and
and
we're
we're
really
good
at
using
things
throughout
their
life
expectancy
and
then
keeping
them
around
for
many
more
years
after
that.
But
at
some
point
you
just
can't
get
parts
for
replacement
radios.
E
The
next
slide
is
this
shows
the
reduction
in
the
tourism
funds
and,
as
you
can
see,
there's
still
a
reduction
in
fiscal
year
23.
That's
the
transfer
that
we
get
from
tourism
basically
covers
two
different
things:
part
of
it
goes
to
brochure
purchases
and
then
part
of
it
goes
to
seasonal
funding.
So
the
the
seasonal
funding
they're
they're
still
going
to
be
able
to
transfer
the
money
to
help
us
out
with
that,
but
not
for
the
the
brochures.
E
The
800
is
the
cost
allocation.
That's
associated
with
the
director's
office
position,
changes,
e900
transfer,
the
of
the
grants
of
project
analysts.
So
last
session
we
got
a
grants
and
programs
analyst
to
run
the
the
education,
the
outdoor
education
grant
program.
The
grant
program
is
being
shifted
over
to
the
division
of
outdoor
recreation,
it'll
be
a
better
fit
over
there.
So
this
is
showing
that
transfer
out
of
our
budget
and
then
e680
is
a
reduction
to
general
fund
and
an
increase
to
user
fees.
E
So
we
were
asked
to
contemplate
a
production
to
our
budget.
As
I
showed
you
earlier,
a
reduction
to
our
budget
of
any
significance
would
have
resulted
in
losing
staff
and
we
just
can't
keep
parks
open
and
safe.
If
we
lose
anybody,
so
we
asked
instead
to
do
a
minor
increase
to
our
fees
and
specifically
to
just
our
annual
permit
sales
and
to
implement
an
out
of
state
feed
user
fee
to
people
coming
into
our
parks
without
nevada
registered
vehicles.
E
Reduction,
the
before
I
go
into
the
division
challenges.
Do
you
want
me
to
pause
and
see
if
there's
questions
specific
or
you
want
me
just
run
through
these
last
two
slides
and
maybe.
E
Okay,
perfect,
thank
you,
so
the
division
challenges,
as
I've
said
throughout
my
presentation,
doing
more
with
less
we're
having
more
and
more
visits
visitors,
we're
increasing
our
amount
of
things
that
we're
offering
to
the
people.
Like
I
said,
cabins
hookups
are
letting
people
stay
longer.
E
But
our
budget
stays
pretty
flat,
so
costs
go
up,
we're
providing
more,
but
our
budget
is
is
largely
flat.
So
it's
more
and
more
of
a
struggle
to
maintain
things
to
the
level
that
that
we
need
to
do
recruitment
and
retention
is
getting
harder
and
harder
for
the
first
time.
In
a
long
time
we
actually
had
to
go
outside
of
our
agency
in
order
to
hire
a
parks
supervisor
that
usually
doesn't
happen.
E
Usually
we
have
promotions,
but
people
are
staying
where
they're
at
and
it's
just
getting
harder
and
harder
to
to
fill
vacancies.
We've
had
numerous
vacancies
over
this
last
year
that
we've
filled
or
tried
to
fill
and
the
people
just
didn't
accept
the
job
or
filled
it,
and
then
they
couldn't
pass
the
background
check
or
a
variety
of
reasons.
So
that's
just
a
trend
that
we're
recognizing
that
it's
just
harder
and
harder
to
find
qualified
people
embracing
new
technology.
E
I
think
most
of
the
people
on
the
committee
might
already
be
aware:
we're
trying
to
implement
a
online
reservation
system
and
we've
been
trying
to
put
in
self-pay
kiosks
in
order
to
make
it
easier
for
people
to
pay
when
they
show
up
to
the
parks
and
and
quite
frankly,
also
make
it
more
likely
that
the
state
will
get
that
revenue
rather
than
have
somebody
break
into
our
feed
tube
and
steal
it
before
we
can
get
to
it
so
providing
more
fee
options
and
preferably
more
digital
or
electronic
methods
of
payment,
so
that
we're
not
dealing
with
cash
and
also
outdated
collection
methods
for
tracking
visitation.
E
We
rely
on
a
bunch
of
oh,
I
guess
logs,
that
that
you
just
have
to
fill
out
and
then
hope
they
don't
get
lost
in
somebody's
patrol
truck
and
then
that
information
has
to
get
input
into
a
a
spreadsheet
and
then
transfer
to
another
office.
Where
somebody
takes
that
information
and
consolidates
it
into
a
larger
spreadsheet.
We're
trying
to
get
away
from
that
to
try
to
make
things
use
technology
to
our
benefit
and
make
things
a
lot
more
streamlined
process.
E
And
then,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
our
aging
facilities,
it's
just
requiring
more
and
more
maintenance
in
order
to
keep
those
things
open.
As
any
homeowners
know,
the
the
older
your
house,
kids,
the
more
stuff
breaks,
and
then
you
just
have
to
fix
it
and
and
try
to
keep
everything
functioning
properly.
E
E
I
think
everybody
saw
that
in
the
news
a
lot
over
the
last
year,
people
going
outside
recreating
but
then
leaving
their
trash
behind,
because
they're
just
they're
either
new
to
to
outdoor
recreation,
and
they
don't
know
the
the
whole
packaging
pack
it
out
or
leave
no
trace
kind
of
philosophies.
E
So
with
that,
I
would
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions
that
that
you
or
the
committee
may
have.
A
Great
thank
you.
We
actually
will
start
with
senator
brooks
I'm
I'm
sorry.
Senator
dennis
has
a
question.
D
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
want
to
talk
about
the
you
you're
you're,
proposing
an
increase
in
the
out-of-state
fees.
Talk
a
little
bit
about
that.
I
I
assume
you've
done
some.
You
did
some
research
and
some
you
know
how
we,
how
do
we
compare
to
other
states
when
we
do
that
and
if
there's
any
negative
cons,
have
you
seen
any
negative
consequences
that
could
come
from
that.
E
Thank
you
senator
brooks
bomber
yell
again
for
the
record.
Yes,
we've
reached
out
to
a
number
of
states,
I'm
a
member
of
the
national
association
of
state
park
directors.
So
it's
all
of
the
administrators
or
directors
from
around
the
country.
E
E
You
know
opportunity,
but
it
also
tried
to
encourage
people
to
stay
a
little
bit
closer
to
home
during
the
pandemic
as
well,
so
the
but
there's.
I
guess
many
more
reasons
that
the
agencies
have
implemented
that,
in
our
case,
we
get
a
large
number
of
visitors
that
come
from
out
of
state,
but
the
the
the
local
nevada
residents
are
the
ones
that
are
paying
the
majority
of
the
costs
through.
E
You
know
various
taxes
and
you
being
residents
of
the
state
of
nevada,
so
a
five
dollar
increase
for.
B
E
Users,
coming
from
out
of
state
is
a
pretty
minimal
increase
and
the
states
that
have
implemented
it
oregon,
specifically
their
their
their
increase,
went
up
even
more
than
ours
in
an
effort
to
actually
try
to
decrease
the
number
of
people
that
were
coming
into
oregon
to
camp,
and
I
talked
to
the
director
up
there
and
their
reservations
didn't
drop
at
all.
In
fact,
they
just
continued
to
go
up,
so
it
had
zero
impact
on
the
actual
number
of
visitors
going
to
oregon
from
out
of
state.
D
That's
interesting,
you
see
they
they
raised
theirs
to
decrease
the
out-of-state
usage.
That's
correct
interesting!
Is
that
because
the
out-of-state
folks
were
down
faster,
I
mean.
Why
would
you
want
to
decrease
that.
E
Barbara
gilligan
for
the
record
in
that
particular
instance,
they
did
it
in
order
to
try
to
reduce
the
number
of
people
that
were
traveling
to
there
during
the
colbit
pandemic.
I
thought
that
was
very
specific
to
2020..
That
was
part
of
their
their
I'm,
not
sure
what
their
board
is
called.
Basically,
their
board
of
counties
wanted
to
decrease
the
number
of
people
coming
into
their
counties
from
outside
of
the
state,
so
they
decided
to
implement
that
fee
again
because
they
couldn't
exactly
say
you're
not
allowed
to
come
into
oregon.
So.
E
Try
to
do
some
things
to
persuade
people
to
camp
other
places
and,
like
I
said
it,
didn't,
really
have
the
impact
that
they
that
they
were
looking
for.
In
that
regard,
it
did
increase.
D
Their
fees
right,
you
know-
I
mean
five
dollars-
seems
reasonable.
How
do
you,
how
do
you
identify
somebody
bit
from
somebody
being
from
out
of
state.
E
A
bomber
girl
for
the
record
what
we
did
this
this
time.
This
is
something
that
we
actually
did
before,
but
last
time
it
was
a
a
discount
for
nevada
residents
is
how
it
was
actually
put
out
the
last
time.
In
essence,
it
was
the
exact
same
thing,
but
this
way,
what
we're
doing
is
it's
based
on
the
license
plate,
that's
on
the
vehicle,
so
if
your
vehicle
isn't
registered
in
nevada,
then
you're
going
to
pay
the
out
of
state
fee
for
coming
into
the
state.
E
That's
what
we
were
trying
to
do
is
make
it
a
little
bit
faster,
getting
through
getting
people
through
the
fee
boost
at
busy
parks.
The
last
time
when
it
was
nevada
resident
discount
people
would
come
in
with
california
plates
arizona
plates
whatever,
but
then
they
would
spend
five
minutes
digging
in
their
trunk
looking
for
their
id
that
showed
that
they
were
actually
a
nevada
resident.
Well,
this
we're
trying
to
make
it
simpler.
We
just
look
at
the
license
plate
if
it's
a
nevada
plate
you
get
in
for
the
normal
price.
E
D
I
see
yeah,
I
was
going
to
say
that
you
know
some
people
when
they
travel,
will
rent
a
car
around
and
put
the
miles
on
their
own
car.
So,
but
I
get
what
you're
talking
about
as
far
as
being
able
to
expedite
so
that
okay,
that's
all
I
have
been
I'm
sure.
Thank
you,
oh.
I
know
I
have
one
other.
I
have
just
a
follow-up
to
something
else
that
you
said.
D
E
Bob
rogel
for
the
record:
no
we're
the
last
state
in
the
country
to
not
have
a
reservation
system,
so
we're
we're
rectifying
that
now.
D
E
Bob
miguel
for
the
record
they're.
They
actually
use
a
variety
of
technologies,
so
the
kiosks
that
we're
getting
they
have
the
capability
to
run
off
of
solar
power.
If
we
don't
have
power,
they
have
the
ability
to
to
transmit
the
data
either
through
fiber
optic.
If
we
happen
to
have
fiber
optic
in
the
in
that
area,
through
cellular
mechanism
or
through
satellite.
E
So
we're
going
to
be
able
to
put
these
in
in
a
lot
of
places
that
we
weren't
expecting
to
be
able
to
put
them
in
quite
frankly,
but
the
technology's
there
so
that
we're
going
to
be
able
to
put
them
in
at
most
of
the
parks
that
that
are
at
least
are
more
highly
visited
parks
and
then
just
to
follow
up
with
that.
Well,
one
of
the
requirements
that
we've
put
into
the
rfp
for
the
new
reservation
system
is
that
they're
able
to
synchronize
data.
E
Bob
mcgill
for
the
record,
I
honestly
don't
know:
if
that's
going
to
increase
it,
will
it
will
increase
people's
ability
to
pay?
For
instance,
I
rarely
ever
have
cash,
because
when
I
do
my
wife
or
my
kids
take
it
anyway.
So.
B
E
I
owe
somewhere
somewhere
if
they
don't
take
a
debit
card.
I'm
not
getting
that
thing
whatever.
That
thing
is,
if
they
so
we're
the
same
way.
If
you
drive
out
to
a
wild
horse,
for
instance,
and
you
didn't
bring
cash
with
you,
then
you
get
there
and
there's
no
other
mechanism
to
pay.
Then
you're,
just
not
going
to
pay
you're
just
going
to
go
in
you're,
not
going
to
turn
around
and
drive
back
to
elko
67
miles
to
you
know,
break
your
20
or
whatever.
So
in
that
regard.
E
Yes,
I
believe
that
people
will
pay
more
often
because
it
will
be
easier
for
them
to
do
as
far
as
the
people
that
don't
pay
until
one
of
our
rangers
show
up,
because
they
figure
they'll,
just
they
won't
bother
paying
the
fee
until
we
show
up
that
philosophy,
I
don't
think
is
going
to
change
for
for
those
people
until
until
we,
you
know
finally
write
them
a
citation
and
they
realize
it's
cheaper
to
just
pay
it
up
front.
I
Thank
you,
chair
miller.
My
question
is
from
your
e262
a
decision
unit
and
and
it's
it's
requesting
an
additional
looks
like
a
general
fund
appropriations
of
252
000
in
each
year
of
the
biennium,
an
additional
general
fund
and
and
we
have
increased
visitors
they're
in
fees,
and
it
appears
as
if
and
and
your
the
the
budgets
that
currently
are
sufficient
for
the
ongoing
maintenance
and
and
of
the
the
facilities
can.
E
Bob
rogel
for
the
record,
so
our
our
cat
seven
is,
is
your
routine
maintenance.
I
guess
items
if
you
will
the
stuff
that
just
happens
all
the
time.
E
E
So
the
cat
7
is
a
budget,
that's
that's
managed
at
the
park
level,
and
so,
if
something
breaks,
the
maintenance
person
just
contacts,
the
the
accounting
person
for
the
region,
they
get
a
po,
they
go
down,
they
buy
the
thing
and
they
make
the
repair.
They
don't
have
to
ask
anybody
they
just
they
know
how
much
is
in
their
budget,
they
use
it
and
they
go
make
those
repairs
if
something
is
significant,
if
it's
a
larger
break
and
it's
something
that
the
park
can't
cover.
E
For
instance,
I
just
saw
a
report
came
across
my
desk
yesterday
that
somebody
decided
to
pull
down
all
of
our
light
towers
at
launch
in
the
day,
use
area.
So
there's
I
think,
six
light
poles
that
we're
going
to
have
to
go
in
and
replace
that's
more
than
the
park
budget
can
can
handle.
So
we're
going
to
have
to
use
our
larger
park
maintenance
account
in
order
to
make
those
repairs.
I
E
Bar
miguel
for
the
record
that
will
help
smaller
parks,
for
instance
la
haunt,
and
where
that,
where
that
particular
thing
happened,
they
have
a
pretty
decent
utility
surcharge
account,
so
they
would
be
able
to
to
handle
that
better.
E
But
if
berlin,
for
instance,
had
all
of
their
solar
panels
destroyed
or
damaged
or
need
to
be
replaced,
they
don't
have
a
utility
surcharge
account
with
a
large
enough
balance
in
it
to
make
those
repairs,
so
they
would
have
to
be
able
to
tap
into
that
region
account
so
that
that's
what
we're
trying
to
fix
with
that
bill.
I
A
Thank
you
senator.
We
also
have
a
few
questions
from
assemblywoman
monroe,
moreno.
B
It's
a
hard
time
to
to
fill
vacancies
so
and,
as
we've
lived
through
covet,
we've
seen
how
the
we
haven't
had
the
tourism
that
we
have
become
accustomed
to
in
our
state,
which
has
reduced
the
amount.
That's
in
the
commission
on
tourism
fund.
So
can
you
tell
us
what
impact
the
agency's
operation
is
anticipating
if
the
recommendation
to
replace
the
revenue
from
the
commission
on
tourism
with
general
fund
appropriations
is
not
approved
to
support
your
seasonal
staffing.
E
Bob
miguel
for
the
record,
that's
a
a
good
question
and-
and
I
probably
don't
have
a
great
answer
for
it-
if
we
don't,
if
we
don't
get
that
funding,
if
that,
if
that
transfer
doesn't
take
place
and
we
don't
find
a
mechanism
to
offset
those
seasonal
fun
funds
that
we
need,
our
seasonals
are
really
what
keep
our
parks
open
and
operational.
E
We
can't
not
have
seasonals
that
that
that
can't
happen.
We
we
just
would
not
be
able
to
keep
parts
open.
We
definitely
wouldn't
be
able
to
keep
our
facilities
clean
and
operational.
So
if
that
doesn't
happen,
I
I,
I
honestly
don't
know
what
we'll
do
we'll
we'll
have
to
do
something,
but
but
but
I
I
wish
I
had
a
better
answer
for
you.
I
I
I
don't
know
how
I
would
offset
that
400
or
3
000.
B
I
appreciate
your
honesty
with
that
and
along
the
same
line
that
those
funds
also
was
what
you
use
for
the
printing
of
the
brochures.
B
Are
there
any
alternative
funding
sources
that
you've
found
or
thought
about
to
continue
with
the
printing
of
the
state
parks,
brochures.
E
Arm
right
for
the
record,
thank
you
for
the
question.
Yes,
that
one
we
can
help
to
alleviate.
So
we
have
a
gift
shop
program
and
the
the
money
that
we
bring
in
from
the
sales
at
the
gift
shops.
It
isn't
like
a
crazy
amount
of
money,
but
it's
enough
money
that
we
can
then
do
a
grant,
because
that
money
is
used
specifically
for
interpretive
programming,
so
our
brochures
definitely
qualify
as
interpretive
programming.
So
so
we
can
still
handle
the
brochure
printing
when
we
need
to.
B
I
Thank
you,
cara
miller.
I
I
don't
know
if
I
missed
this,
but
I
didn't
see
it
anywhere
in
your
presentation
and
it's
it's
about
the
elgin,
elgin,
schoolhouse
site
improvements,
and
there
was
a
one-time
fund
appropriation
in
the
last
session
for
twenty
thousand
dollars.
I
think
it
was
yeah
twenty
thousand
dollars
each
year.
The
biennium
and
the
budget
currently
has
that
continuing
in
each
year
of
this,
this
future
biennium
has
the
agency
identified
any
alternative
funding
sources
that
could
be
used
to
support
the
elgin
schoolhouse
site
improvements.
E
Bob
mcgill
and
thank
you
for
the
question.
Still
we
we
were
able
to
build
that
the
the
one-time
money
that
we
got
for
elgin.
We
were
able
to
build
in
under
our
two
times
cap,
so
we
were
we.
We
recognized
that
we
need
to
continue
to
to
make
improvements
at
elgin,
so
we
wanted
to
do
everything
we
could
to
continue
that
process
as
far
as
outside
funding
sources.
E
The
only
I
guess,
funding
sources
that
we're
looking
at
right
now
to
help
with
improvements.
There
would
be
land
water
conservation
fund
programming,
which
is
a
federal
grant
program
that
we
that
we
administer
and
it's
it's
a
50
50
match.
So
any
project
that
we
do.
We
could
cover
you
know,
half
with
with
state
park
funding
whether
that
was
that
park
maintenance
account
or
this
funding
that
we're
putting
into
the
budget,
and
then
we
can
in
essence
double
that
money.
If
we
are
using
a
qualifying
land,
water
conservation
fund
grant.
I
So,
basically,
you're
looking
at
supplementing
the
the
spending
by
matching
funds,
as
opposed
to,
alternatively,
replacing
these
funds
with
with
something
else,
bob
royal
for
the
record.
That's
great!
Okay!
Thank
you
appreciate
that.
A
Okay,
thank
you
senator
any
additional
questions
from
members.
E
Farm
ago,
for
the
record,
I
I
don't
have
those
figures
with
me,
but
I
could
certainly
get
them
to.
D
E
E
Bob
mcgill
for
the
record:
we
don't
we
don't
have
like
actual
traffic
counters
out
there.
So
really
what
we
do
is
we
just
count
visitors
when
we
actually
meet
up
with
them
out
there.
E
So
with
this
let
with
kobit,
we
really
didn't
do
a
lot
of
that
type
of
outreach,
because
we
weren't
encouraging
people
to
come
together
in
groups
so
2020,
I
would
have
to
say
we
probably
would
see
a
decrease
out
there,
but
I'm,
but
I'm,
like
I
said,
I'm
happy
to
forward
the
committee.
Our
visitation
numbers
for
out
there.
If
you
like
those.
D
Yeah,
I'm
just
just
wondering
thank
you.
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
A
A
We
have
state
lands
and,
I
believe,
presented
by
mr
donohue.
K
A
K
K
There
I'm
sure
we're
just
working
to
bring
up
our
presentation
if
you
bear
with
us
just
one
moment.
Please.
K
F
K
The
one
who
built
our
budget
so
my
plan
is
to
turn
it
over
to
her
and
she's,
going
to
run
this
presentation
and
walk
you
through
our
budget
venom
chair.
Thank
you
very
much.
C
C
We
operate
in
three
core
program
areas.
We
have
five
land
agents
led
by
a
supervisory
land
agent
who
run
our
state
land
office
they
acquire
and
dispose
of
land
on
behalf
of
other
state
agencies
in
fulfillment
of
their
make
in
fulfillment
of
their
missions,
and
once
we
acquire
property,
we
take
title
in
the
name
of
the
state
of
nevada
and
then
assign
that
property
to
a
state
agency
for
their
day-to-day
management.
C
C
Finally,
we
manage
land
records.
We
do
this
both
electronically
with
our
land
management
system
database
and
also
in
hard
copy
form
in
our
climate
control
vault.
We
have
records
that
go
back
to
the
time
of
statehood:
the
nevada
division
of
state
lands.
We
house
the
nevada,
tahoe
resource
team.
The
team
is
responsible
for
implementing
the
environmental
improvement
program
for
the
state
of
nevada.
C
This
is
a
bond
funded
program
that
results
in
implementation
of
capital
projects
that
benefit
resource
areas
like
forest
health,
water
quality,
sensitive
species,
recreation
and
also
for
the
control
and
eradication
of
aquatic
invasive
species.
We
have
a
multi-agency,
multi-disciplinary
team
that
runs
that
program.
C
We
also
have
a
forester
position
that
manages
our
urban
lots
program.
The
state
holds
title
to
nearly
500
undeveloped,
sensitive
lots
in
lake
tahoe
that
are
managed
for
their
conservation
values,
and
we
also
have
a
land
agent
on
the
tahoe
team
that
runs
our
nevada
land
program.
This
is
run
through
a
memorandum
of
understanding
with
the
tahoe
regional
planning
agency.
C
C
He
also
serves
as
staff
to
the
state
land
use
planning,
advisory
council,
the
nevada
joint
military
affairs
committee
and
the
nevada
tahoe
regional
planning
agency.
This
individual
also
runs
the
nevada
state
clearinghouse.
This
is
the
single
point
of
contact.
Sorry,
the
single
point
of
contact
for
federal
actions
that
may
have
a
significant
impact
on
the
environment.
C
Our
proposed
budget
for
the
next
biennium
is
just
over
4
million
dollars
and,
as
you
can
see
by
this
graph
here,
we
are
primarily
a
general
fund
funded
agency
about
78
general
fund
appropriations.
Although
our
budget
is
small,
it
is
complex.
We
also
receive
revenue
in
the
form
of
these
smaller
revenue
sources.
C
C
C
C
In
addition,
you
will
also
see
kind
of
a
funny
number
there
that
the
second
year
proposed
reduction
is
a
lot
higher
than
the
first
year,
and
that
is
due
to
a
math
error.
We
discovered
that
eight
thousand
dollars
was
actually
deducted
twice
from
our
budget,
so
we
are
working
with
lcd,
fiscal
and
gfo
to
make
that
technical
correction
that
second
year
number
is
more
around
thirteen
hundred
dollars.
C
Finally,
our
last
enhancement
unit
is
to
provoke
proposed
budget
reductions
in
both
our
in-state
and
out-of-state
travel
categories.
C
We
are
looking
forward
to
the
future.
We
are
very
excited
to
report
that
we
are
backfilling
our
vacancies
and,
with
the
exception
of
the
one
land
agent
position
we're
proposing
to
hold
vacant,
we
are
in
the
process
of
filling
the
rest
of
our
vacancies,
we're
looking
forward
to
having
a
more
complete
staff
in
in
terms
of
challenges.
C
We
don't
really
foresee
significant
challenges
in
the
next
biennium,
but
we
are
looking
even
further
ahead
into
the
future
and
see
that
potentially
in
fiscal
year,
24
or
25,
we
could
foresee
some
equipment
and
service
needs.
For
example
our
forester,
who
manages
our
urban
lots
program.
This
is
a
field
based
position
and
he
uses
a
2002
toyota
tacoma
truck.
C
C
In
addition,
our
land
management
system,
which
is
our
central
database
for
the
agency,
it
functions
really
well
for
our
internal
purposes,
but
we
think
that
we
can
improve
the
way
that
it
interfaces
with
the
public
and
with
our
customers,
for
example.
We
would
like
to
see
that
it
be
enhanced
so
that
customers
can
submit
their
applications,
their
application
fees
and
potentially
even
track
the
status
of
their
applications
online.
C
C
Finally,
our
tahoe
resource
team
is,
we
have
two
positions
that
we've
been
working
to
transition
from
bond
funding
onto
general
fund
appropriations,
and
this
is
because
these
two
positions,
the
program
manager
and
the
administrative
assistant-
tend
to
have
more
of
a
of
an
administrative
capacity
rather
than
a
true
project.
Implementation
capacity.
C
We
are
projecting
that
that
bond
interest
would
be
depleted
by
the
middle
of
fiscal
year
24,
so
we
would
be
seeking
to
transition
the
operating
expenses
for
those
two
positions
fully
over
to
general
fund,
if
possible
in
the
next
biennium.
C
I
C
Thank
you
very
much
for
the
question
ellery
staller
for
the
record.
We
would
anticipate
the
impact
to
be
just
a
proportional
share
of
that
position's.
Workload.
Responsibility
distributed
among
the
other
land
agents
that
are
in
the
state
land
office
may
receive
about
a
little
over
300
applications
per
year.
C
So
that's
a
lot
of
projects
to
multitask
among
our
our
small
office,
so
we
would
expect
to
see
kind
of
that
incremental
increase
in
in
the
share
of
the
workload
in
processing
time
and
in
completing
projects.
J
I
I
can
briefly
follow
up
what
about
the
reduction
in
maintenance
support
for
the
land
management
systems.
What
impacts
will
that
have.
C
Our
thank
you
for
the
question.
Valerie
staller
for
the
record.
This
land
management
system,
maintenance
contract,
covers
bug,
fixes
system
errors,
process
efficiencies
things
of
that
nature.
We
also
have
a
business
process
analyst,
who
is
tech
savvy
and
does
a
lot
of
different.
C
C
Twelve
thousand
dollars
per
year,
so
this
would
be
a
somewhat
modest,
a
modest
reduction
in
their
capacity
to
assist
the
agency.
So
just
answer
that
question.
I
Thank
you
so,
just
to
clarify
it
sounds
like
there'd,
be
some
additional
time
from
one
of
your
staff
to
help
troubleshoot
any
major
issues
and,
and
then
there'd
just
be
less
efficiency,
improvements
or
bug
fixes
as
a
result
of
that
reduction
that
bear
characterization.
K
Assemblyman
watts
this
is
charlie
donny
for
the
record,
I
would
say
that's
a
fair
assessment
as
background
when
the
lms
system
was
developed
for
the
agency.
K
We
also
had
approximately
20
000
in
maintenance
and,
as
we
maintain
that
contract
over
time,
we've
noticed
that
we
haven't
had
to
use
that
so
we've
slowly
been
whittling
that
down
and
we
both
feel
comfortable
with
this
modest
reduction
with
some
of
the
staff
support.
A
Thank
you
assemblyman.
We
have
some
follow-up
questions
from
senator
dennis.
D
Thank
you.
I
just
want
to
follow
up
on
that
line
of
questioning,
because,
as
I
look
at
this,
it
says
that
you're
going
to
reduce
it
you're,
reducing
by
16
in
fiscal
year
22,
but
80
in
2023,
is
that
when
you're
talking
about
whittling
down
is
that
is
that
what
you're
talking
about.
C
Well,
thank
you
for
the
question.
That's
a
good
opportunity
to
provide
clarification.
This
is
hillary's
dollar
for
the
record,
the
fiscal
year,
23
number
that
we
see
there
in
the
amount
of
1091.
C
That
was
actually
discovered
to
be
a
math
error
in
our
budget.
It
turns
out
that
approximately
eight
thousand
dollars
was
deducted
twice
and
so
we're
currently
working
with
lcd,
fiscal
and
gfo.
In
order
to
correct
that,
that
number
is
more
around
thirteen
hundred
dollars.
D
K
That's
the
charlie
donaghy
for
the
record.
That's
right
senator
and
what
we've
done
is.
We've
noticed
that
we
haven't
had
to
go
back
to
the
developer,
that
as
frequently
as
we
did
when
it
was
first
deployed.
This
system
is
nearing
its
10th
year
and
it's
one
of
the
things
that
we've
identified
with
some
of
the
things
ellery
talked
about
her
presentation,
opportunities
and
challenges
in
the
future
is,
I
think,
next
biennium
we're
probably
going
to
be
coming
back
for
a
tire
request.
J
K
That
and
make
it
more
accessible
for
some
of
the
items
that
she
talked
about
in
terms
of
submitting
applications
electronically
payments
electronically.
Things
of
that
nature,
a
a
rather
substantive
enhancement.
D
D
Older
and
you
need
to
replace
it,
are
you
going
to
be
able?
Are
you
going
to
be
coming
back
so
that
that
I
appreciate
that
it
just
worries
me
when,
when
you
have
a
computer
system
that
you're
dependent
on
that
somebody
else
wrote
and
then
you're
reducing
your
support
for
it,
because
if
it
goes
down
then
then
those
processes
go.
You
know
become
inhibited
so
anyway,
so
that
that's
why
I
want
to
follow
up
on
that.
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
madam
chair
yeah.
K
B
K
The
agency
has,
in
my
mind,
an
extremely
good
relationship
with
the
company
that
developed
the
software
for
our
land
management
system,
and
they
have
spent
quite
a
bit
of
time
with
our
staff
when
we've
had
issues,
and
actually
I
in
my
mind,
kind
of
tutored
them
or
mentored
them
in
terms
of
enabling
us
to
kind
of
manage
some
of
that
system
on
our
own
without
having
to
go
back
to
them
and
and
they're
comfortable
with
that
relationship.
K
But
I
do
believe
it's
in
the
next
plane.
It's
going
to
be
time
to
really
upgrade
it.
D
Yeah
and
madam
chair
just
a
comment,
I
that's,
where
we're
always
just
kind
of
a
little
hesitant,
because
we've
seen
a
lot
of
priority
projects
that
run
into
problems
and
a
lot
of
times
afterwards.
You
know
because
the
the
either
developer
is
no
longer
going
to
develop
that
product
or
other
things.
So
so
when
we
ask
those
kind
of
questions
just
because
we're
concerned,
because
we've
seen
other
projects
fall
through,
so
I
appreciate
the
information.
Thank
you
manager.
K
K
G
A
Okay,
not
seeing
any.
Thank
you
so
much
for
this
presentation
and
we
can
move
on
to
our
next
budget.
A
Thank
you
administrator.
Our
last
budget
for
the
day
is
the
division
of
outdoor
recreation
with
administrator
robertson.
A
C
H
The
division
of
outdoor
recreation's
authority
and
responsibilities
are
outlined
in
nrs.
Chapter
407a
endor
is
currently
a
division
of
one,
and
I
look
forward
to
being
able
to
recruit
for
two
additional
staff
later
this
calendar
year.
Endor
is
part
of
the
confluence
of
states.
The
alliance
of
13
u.s
states
that
have
created
offices
of
outdoor
recreation
in
the
last
four
years
to
foster
outdoor
recreation's
many
benefits
to
the
public
and
to
the
economy.
H
In
the
first
year,
despite
the
pandemic,
a
great
deal
of
effort
has
been
invested
in
successfully
standing
up
the
nevada
advisory
board
on
outdoor
recreation
chaired
by
lieutenant
governor
kate
marshall.
I
am
currently
working
very
closely
with
the
nevada
division
of
state
parks
to
revise
the
nevada,
statewide
comprehensive
outdoor
recreation
plan
for
scorp.
H
H
H
B
H
A
Thank
you
administrator.
I
know
we
have
at
least
one
from
assemblywoman
monroe,
moreno.
B
B
H
Thank
you
for
that
question.
Vice
chairman
monroe
moreno.
Thanks
to
for
your
comment,
I
have
one
of
the
very
best
jobs
in
state
government
and
I'm
very
happy
to
have
it.
The
outdoor
education
recreation
grant
program
is
a
tremendous
idea
and
a
wonderful
program.
H
I
anticipate
that
some
of
the
work
that
I'm
doing
at
the
on
the
outdoor
economy,
front
for
the
state
of
nevada
will
help
to
provide
introduction
to
organizations
with
philanthropic
with
philanthropic
mindsets
to
help
increase
funds
that
are
that
may
be
available
for
the
sort
of
mission-driven
purpose
of
the
outdoor
education
and
recreation
grant
program.
H
That
was
evidenced.
I
think
this
year,
by
not
through
the
grant
program
specifically
but
by
work
that
I
did
with
a
private
philanthropic
donor
to
provide
a
grant
to
get
outdoors
nevada
during
the
height
of
the
pandemic
in
las
vegas
and
to
provide
a
small
grant,
at
least
for
the
purposes
of
introducing
underserved
children
in
clark
county
to
outdoor
education
and
recreation
opportunities
in
the
form
of
a
camp
in
a
box
program
that
was
really
well
received
and
could
have
been
expanded
dramatically
by
increased
dollars
invested
in
it.
H
But
was
a
good
start
and
I
anticipate
that
a
similar
opportunity
may
exist
on
the
private
side
to
match
or
amplify
any
state
investment
in
the
future.
B
A
Thank
you,
assemblywoman.
Any
additional
questions
for.
A
Members
all
right
not
seeing
any
additional
questions,
then
thank
you
for
that
administrator
that
will
administrator
robertson.
That
will
conclude
our
questions
for
this
budget
as
well.
We
can
then
move
on
to
our
last
item
on
the
agenda,
which
is
actually
public
comment,
so
broadcasting
you
can
open
the
lines
for
public
comment
and
again
just
want
to
remind
everyone
that
they
will
have
two
minutes
to
make
public
comment
and
also
to
please
state
your
name
clearly
for
the
record.
B
J
J
Many
have
come
to
the
conclusion
that
they
will
die
on
the
job,
because
working
is
the
only
way
they
can
qualify
and
afford
insurance
workers
who
dedicate
three
or
four
decades
to
the
state
deserve
better.
Please
keep
in
mind
active
and
retired.
State
workers
need
access
to
affordable
health
care
when
they
retire.
Members
of
nsear
appreciate
anything.
You
can
do
to
help
contain
the
cost
of
health
care
and
medicine.
J
We
ask
you
to
consider
undertaking
a
study
to
identify
the
status
of
state
workers
who
do
not
qualify
for
medicare
and
steps
that
could
be
taken
to
ensure
that
all
workers
have
access
to
affordable
health
care
and
medicine
in
their
golden
years.
Thank
you
for
your
time
and
all
your
efforts
and
all
the
efforts
you
all
put
into
making
nevada
a
great
place
to
live,
work
play
and
retire.
B
J
Hello,
my
name
is
kyle
davis,
that's
k-y-l-e-d-a-v-I-s,
and
I'm
here
today
on
behalf
of
the
nevada
conservation
league,
the
nevada
conservation
league
would
like
to
express
our
strong
support
for
the
programs
outlined
by
the
department
of
conservation
and
natural
resources.
Today,
our
state
parks
are
a
valuable
way
for
nevadans
to
connect
with
the
outdoors
and
are
a
mechanism
for
protecting
our
natural
resources
and
helping
us
meet
the
goal
of
conserving
30
percent
of
our
state's
land
and
water
by
2030..
J
J
We
know
that
the
details
of
this
program
were
covered
in
the
cip
budget
a
few
weeks
ago,
but
the
program
is
largely
administered
through
the
division
of
state
land.
It's
important
to
understand
that
these
bonds
are
the
primary
source
of
funding
for
the
state
for
proactive
on
the
ground
conservation
reauthorizing.
This
program
was
a
top
priority
of
our
organization
in
2019,
and
we
support
the
implementation
of
the
program
as
outlined.
J
B
A
Thank
you
well
with
that.
That
concludes
our
agenda
items.
For,
for
the
day,
I
will
go
ahead
and
adjourn
this
meeting.
Everyone
have
a
wonderful
weekend.
Thank
you.
