Public Works Director Ben Garrett. Manager Mendiola reviewed request for the Commission. Treasurer

Lecumberry clarified that the limit is $2,500.00 not $2,000.00. The following motion was made

card in question which has a card limit of $2,500.00 and was formerly assigned to the

Public Works Director Ben Garrett.

PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT: Public Works Director Don Kalkoske appeared via teleconference.

GENERAL ROAD PROJECTS: A presentation by Humboldt County Public Works Director Don Kalkoske to

update the Board on Road projects within Humboldt County, however, no action may be taken on a matter

raised until the matter itself has been specifically included on the agenda as an item upon which action

may be taken. Director Kalkoske reported that the dust control application is complete as well as the

condition of the roads treated, grading on Jungo Road which included dust control and had an additional

12

five miles included and that Hycroft had performed their dust control project which he believes takes the

treatment area out to the mine, he continued reporting on a couple of small projects in McDermitt

including work on the road to the water tank and improvements on the sewer pond roads, weed spraying

in the Orovada/ Kings River area, that the signage for the Paradise School had been updated and installed

and that he will be conducting water person interviews this week. Commissioner French asked if he had

seen any medusa head. Director Kalkoske responded that he has not. Commissioner Cerri commented

that he had seen some last year out South Valley Road, but he is not sure if it is there now or not. Director

Kalkoske indicated he would take a look.

ASSESSOR: Chief Deputy Assessor Andy Heiser appeared before the Commission via video conference.

WAIVER OF THE COUNTY ATTRITION POLICY FOR DATA COLLECTOR AND/OR APPRAISER: Consideration,

discussion, and possible action to hire a data collector and/or appraiser. Follow up from the April 6th

meeting and May 4th meeting where additional information was asked to be provided. This meeting has

exceeded the 60-day request from the commissioners to come back before them to see if this position is

essential. A copy of a memorandum detailing the request was included on the on-line agenda for review

(see attached). Chief Deputy Assessor reviewed the memo attached including original time of request,

attempts to train in-house and the difficulty with that and the request to hire the position, the effect of

not reviewing values as required including the costs associated with bringing in appraisers from either the

State or the private sector, statutory requirements for the Assessor’s duties, the continued effort for the

conversion of their operating system and the issues with current Assessor Johnson possibly coming back

to help. Chairman Tipton asked about the effect of failing to value on other entities. Deputy Assessor

Heiser responded explaining that it would impact every taxing entity in the County. Commissioner French

stated his support for hiring the position as information has been provided to support the request.

Commissioner Cerri commented on his position that we should hire. Commissioner Brissenden agreed

with the comments offered. Commissioner Bell stated that he had always been in favor of the request

and stated the Commission should move forward. Chairman Tipton stated that he is in favor as with trying

to save a dime it would cost a dollar. The following motion was made by Commissioner French and passed

unanimously:

To approve the request from the County Assessor to hire a data collector and/or

appraiser however it works out.

SHERIFF: Sheriff Mike Allen appeared before the Commission via video conference.

PURCHASE OF FIVE (5) PORTABLE RADIOS: A) Consideration, discussion, and possible action regarding a

request to purchase five (5) portable radios for Patrol and Detention Divisions in an amount not to exceed

$18,826.68 from Epic Marketing. Currently, our portable radio inventory is aging, and some do not work

at all and no parts are available. The total cost will not exceed $20,000. A copy of the quote was included

on the on-line agenda review. Sheriff Allen reviewed the request for the Commission. Commissioner

Cerri asked if funds were available in the current budget. Sheriff Allen confirmed that they were. The

following motion was made by Commissioner French and passed unanimously:

To grant the request for the purchase of five portable radios for the Patrol and

Detention Divisions in an amount not to exceed $18,826.68 from Epic Marketing

as presented.

B) Report to the Board regarding two vouchers submitted to the Comptroller in the current check run.

Sheriff Allen explained that the Office had begun a records’ management project prior to the Covid 19

situation and the next phase involved the purchase of a $10,000.00 interface which was included in the

current budget; additionally it is time for the annual ammunition purchase for $17,000.00; he noted that

he was providing the information due to the direction that expenditures over a certain amount come

before the Commission. Commissioner Brissenden thanked the Sheriff for letting the Commission know.

APPROVAL OF HUMBOLDT COUNTY LAW ENFORCEMENT COLLECTIVE BARGAINING AGREEMENT:

Consideration, discussion, and possible action regarding the 2020-2021 collective bargaining agreement

between Humboldt County, a subdivision of the State of Nevada, and the Humboldt County Law

Enforcement Association (HCLEA) for the 2021 fiscal year. Manager Mendiola reviewed the request for

the Commission noting that negotiations had begun with both units in late February/early March and that

the General Unit’s negotiations are also complete, but they are waiting for ratification by their

membership. He continued stating that this is a one-year agreement due to the Covid 19 situation and

this will also allow us to see the fiscal trend for June through September, that this agreement will provide

a 2% COLA and a 2.5 % merit but those will be suspended until December 2nd at which time negotiations

will be reopened as by then we should have good idea where the County sits financially, if the impact is

by more than 25% there will be no COLA or merit; if the impact is 16-25% there will be a merit for all

employees retroactive to July 1, if the impact is 15% or less then for fiscal year 20 the unit receives both

COLA and merit plus there are options included if issues were to occur later. Manager Mendiola thanked

14

06/15/2020 Page 8 of 14

the representatives for the law enforcement and all those involved. The following motion was made by

Commissioner French and passed unanimously:

To approve the Humboldt County Law Enforcement Collective Bargaining Agreement

for fiscal year 2020-2021 as presented.

Chairman Tipton indicated that item 19 on the agenda would be taken next as it is time specific.

CONSIDERATION OF WILD FIRE PROTECTION PROGRAM AGREEMENT RENEWAL FOR 2020: Consideration,

discussion, and possible action regarding the Wild Fire Protection Plan (WFPP) for 2020. This agreement

with Nevada Division of Forestry (NDF) outlines procedures for suppression of wild land fires and fuels

management in an amount not to exceed $150,000. A copy of the proposed agreement was included on

the on-line agenda for review. Manager Mendiola stated that NDF would go less than $150,000.00 for

the 2020 fire season, so the Commission needs to make a decision as to how to proceed; he stated his

opinion that this program has value. Commissioner French asked where Elko and Lander County stand on

this. Manager Mendiola responded that Elko is still in negotiations but that the State has not budged from

their proposal as of last week. Commissioner Cerri asked if this agreement is for one year. Manager

Mendiola confirmed that it was and then renegotiation would begin in March of next year. Commissioner

Cerri suggested that the County stick with it for now but that, if it goes up anymore, we need to reevaluate

in the future as he is not sure he sees the value plus he has concern with the possibility of the honor camps

closing and how that would impact the services we are receiving now. Commissioner Bell agreed that this

is not an ideal situation but stated that at this point he is in favor of continuing but would suggest

reevaluating it next year to see if we should continue. Commissioner Brissenden agreed with her fellow

Commissioners comments as to continuing with the agreement for this year but noted the need to keep

holding NDF’s feet to the fire on the costs for next year. Chairman Tipton commented that it is hard for

him but he does agree that the County should continue with the agreement for this year though he has

questioned the worth at times, he asked that it really be watched for the next nine months to see what

we are really getting out of it and to try and look for other options if they not willing to better negotiate

in the future. The following motion was made by Commissioner Brissenden:

To approve the 2020-2021 Wild Fire Protection Program Agreement at a cost not to

exceed $150,000.00.

15

06/15/2020 Page 9 of 14

Commissioner French stated, for the record, that he thinks Commissioner Cerri’s comments were

spot on and he thinks from the stand point of $150,000.00 we are right at the sweet spot or right at the

edge of whether it offers enough value to us and while he is in favor of moving forward this year, it does

appear that NDF is trying to bump up the numbers almost exponentially annually and while the numbers

are being based theoretically on the risk assessed versus the cost NDF paid out last year, that does not

make a lot of sense to him as last year was not much of a fire season, he stated his understanding of what

is funded but reiterated that he believes we are right at the edge of it being a value. Chairman Tipton

called Commissioner Brissenden’s motion to a vote and it passed unanimously.

APPROVAL OF DOCUSIGN PROPOSAL FOR ELECTRONIC DOCUMENT SIGNING: Consideration, discussion,

and possible action to purchase 3,000 additional envelopes from DocuSign for an amount not to exceed

$10,108.50 which will allow Humboldt County staff to route and collect electronic signatures on

documents and agreements and avoid overage/usage fees of $5.80 per transaction over the current

allocation of 500 envelopes. Included on the on-line agenda for review was a letter detailing the request

from Assistant County Manager/Human Resources Director Abel del Real-Nava and copies of the order

forms for 1,500, 2,000 or 3,000 DocuSign envelopes with associated costs for each variation. Assistant

County Manager Abel del Real-Nava appeared before the Commission via video conference and reviewed

the request including the changes with the usage of the service due to Covid-19. Deputy District Attorney

Maddox discussed the usage of the program by the District Attorney’s Office. He reviewed the three

proposals and recommended the option for 3000 envelopes at a cost of $10,108.50. Manager Mendiola

discussing sharing costs with the different departments/Funds so that the cost would not be wholly

covered by the General Fund. Chairman Tipton asked what would occur if we don’t reach 3000 in the

twelve-month period. Assistant County Manager del Real-Nava confirmed that there is no roll over.

Commissioner French asked if the fees for the service are reimbursable under the CARES Act. Comptroller

Rackley stated that she would look into that for the Commission and provide that information at the next

meeting. Chairman Tipton questioned the need for 3,000 and suggested that perhaps 2,000 would be

sufficient given the current numbers related to usage. Assistant Manager del Real-Nava stated that he

follows the use via reports and that he will continue to do so and if it were to look like we were going to

exceed, it could be addressed at that time. Manager Mendiola suggested that the 2,000 be approved and

concurred with the Assistant Manager’s comments that it could be brought back if necessary. Chairman

Tipton asked about the premier support. Assistant Manager del Real-Nava reviewed what was included.

The following motion was made by Commissioner Brissenden:

16

06/15/2020 Page 10 of 14

To approve the agreement with DocuSign to purchase an additional two thousand

envelopes in an amount not to exceed $6,900.00.

Commissioner French asked if that included the premier support as well. Assistant Manager del

Real-Nava explained that the support was part of the quote. Chairman Tipton called Commissioner

Brissenden’s motion to a vote and it passed unanimously.

ANNUAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF COUNTY MANAGER DAVE MENDIOLA: - Consideration,

discussion, and possible action regarding the annual Performance Evaluation of County Manager Dave

Mendiola and subsequent decision regarding a Cost of Living Adjustment and Merit increase for Fiscal

Year 2019-2020, should they be approved by the Board of Commissioners to appointed officials later this

year. Manager Mendiola reviewed what had been involved with his job this year including the Covid-19

situation. Chairman Tipton asked for comments from the Commissioners.

Commissioner Brissenden offered comments stating that since Manager Mendiola had become

the Manager his accomplishments have been very impressive including being instrumental in completing

the water plan, working to address the nitrate situation in Grass Valley, his ability to work with Jan

Morrison on economic development and finally his ability to work well with State and Federal Government

Officials, other State and City Officials as well as other entities which has really benefited Humboldt

County; she continued stating that her concerns and areas that she feels need improvement are with

communication and transparency with the Commission; she also noted concern with Manager Mendiola’s

transition from the private sector to the public sector which at times seems to be challenged as a county

leader and even through there are many similarities there are definitely many differences but other than

that she thanked Manager Mendiola and stated that it had been a blast.

Commissioner French offered comments stating that he agreed with much of what was said

earlier but stated that he had read through Manager Mendiola’s self-evaluation which was sort of a 30,000

foot overview of the year’s accomplishments but what occurred to him is that Manager Mendiola’s

strength is people and agency coordination, it always has been so he somewhat disagrees with

Commissioner Brissenden as he believes his transparency and department vision and his ability to

coordinate with state and federal agencies as well as other political entities is absolutely impressive; he

continued noting that with serving with NACO and working with a lot of the leadership within the State of

Nevada, Manager Mendiola, Comptroller Rackley and Assistant County Manager/Human Resources

Director del Real-Nava their names stand out there all by themselves and have set a standard that the

17

06/15/2020 Page 11 of 14

County should be proud of as they are highly revered and highly sought after for their opinions; he further

commented that Manager Mendiola’s working relationship with the congressional and legislative side of

things as well as with the Commissions and Managers in other counties is truly impressive. He stated his

appreciation to Manager Mendiola for being engaged and being a person who has set this county out by

itself as a county that actually works well with others, has vision and is moving forward; he commented

on realizing Manager Mendiola’s gifts when he was hired and how he still appreciates those gifts and that

he believes he is representing the Commission very well and he is proud to work with him.

Commissioner Bell commented that it was a different Board that hired Manager Mendiola back

in the day and while he was not his first choice strictly based on the lack of experience he is proud and

glad to say that Manager Mendiola has proven him wrong, that it is good to work with Manager Mendiola

and he appreciates all the work that Manager Mendiola has done.

Commissioner Cerri commented that Manager Mendiola keeps getting better every year, that he

is doing a good job and he believes he will continue to do good job, that he recognizes that Manager

Mendiola’s heart is with Humboldt County and that has allowed them to do good things here such as not

raise taxes, that how Manager Mendiola has handled the situation with Covid 19 is a good example of

leadership and was seen as such by other across the State, that he has never called with an issue that he

has not responded to, that he has the respect of the community and the State which is shown by his

committee appointment as well as other County Commissions who have called on him to help with

internal issues, that it is a tough job but he handles it well and he and that he is glad to have him in the

position and he appreciates all that Manager Mendiola does.

Chairman Tipton noted that he had supported Manager Mendiola’s hiring, that he has been a big

help since he had been on the Commission which he appreciates and that he agrees with comments from

other Board members; he suggested that a short e-mail or text message from time to time to the

Commission on things he is working on would be beneficial.

Commissioner Brissenden noted that the way Chairman Tipton communicated what she had

referred about lack of transparency and communication was perfect as that was what she meant as to the

Board not to the rest of the community or state entities; she thanked Chairman Tipton for his comment.

Manager Mendiola stated that he could definitely do that, and he appreciates the feedback.

Commissioner French thanked Commissioner Brissenden for her clarification.

The following motion was made by Commissioner French and passed unanimously:

18

06/15/2020 Page 12 of 14

That we accept the annual performance evaluation of County Manager Dave Mendiola

and the subsequent decision regarding the cost of living adjustment, merit increase for

fiscal year 2019 and 2020 subject to the general agreement and accept those comments

that were made by the Commission as Manager Mendiola’s evaluation.

11:00 A.M. - ACCEPTANCE OF RENEWAL PROPOSAL FROM NEVADA PUBLIC AGENCY INSURANCE POOL:

Consideration, discussion, and possible approval of the renewal proposal from the Nevada Public Agency

Insurance Pool and approval for payment from FY20-21 funds. Manager Mendiola reviewed the request

for the Commission. Marianne Dente and Scott Rottman of A&H Insurance appeared before the

Commission via teleconference. The Nevada Public Agency Coverage Proposal was reviewed by Ms. Dente

for the Commission. Allan Kalt, Chief Financial Officer for Pool/Pact appeared before the Commission via

teleconference and thanked Humboldt County for their support and commented on the relationship of

Pool/Pact with its members; he highlighted some of the Risk Management Programs being offered. The

following motion was Commissioner Brissenden and passed unanimously:

To approve the Nevada Public Agency Insurance Pool renewal for fiscal year 2021 and to

direct the Comptroller to prepare payment.

RESOLUTION: TRANSFER OF 2020 PRIVATE ACTIVITY BOND VOLUME CAP TO NEVADA RURAL HOUSING

AUTHORITY: Consideration, discussion, and possible approval to transfer the Humboldt County 2020

Private Activity Bond Volume Cap in the amount of $476,667.31 to the Nevada Rural Housing Authority

(NRHA) for its single-family programs in 2020 pursuant to NAC 348A.180. A copy of the proposed

resolution was included on the on-line agenda for review. William Brewer and Diane Arvizo of Nevada

Rural Housing Authority appeared before the Commission via video conference. Mr. Brewer explained

what has been accomplished in Humboldt County and requested the transfer of the County’s Private

Activity Bond Volume Cap and explained how that transfer is used. The following motion was made by

Commissioner Brissenden and passed unanimously:

To approve the resolution to transfer the Humboldt County 2020 Private Activity Bond

Volume Cap in the amount of $476,667.31 to the Nevada Rural Housing Authority for

its single-family programs in 2020 pursuant to NAC 348A.180.

(Resolution No. 06-15-20e)

STATUS OF PLAN TO OPEN COUNTY OFFICES TO NORMAL BUSINESS: A discussion about plans to return

county offices to normal operating procedures in light of the positive trends in COVID-19 cases as well as

other factors. Manager Mendiola informed the Board that discussions had occurred with county offices

and staff and the plan is to go live on July 1st with certain restrictions in place for the public and staff; he

noted that a press release would occur if the Commission agrees. The Commission concurred that it was

appropriate. Commissioner Cerri asked if an employee was compromised would they be able to work at

home. Manager Mendiola reviewed a couple of options noting the need to be flexible as we do not want

to put anyone at risk. Assistant County Manager del Real-Nava commented on the Governor’s directive.

Commissioner Cerri asked if regular Commission meetings would occur at that time as well. Manager

Mendiola responded commenting on some of the plans for continuing to offer streaming of the meetings

as the public likes the process. Deputy District Attorney Maddox noted that the Governor’s Directive 21

still limits meetings to this format up until June 30th as of now. No action was taken by the Commission

as this was for discussion only.

STATUS UPDATE OF RS2477 ROAD ASSESSMENT WITH CENTRAL NEVADA CARTOGRAPHY: Consideration,

discussion, and possible action regarding a request to continue assessment work on the RS2477 roads in

Humboldt County by Central Nevada Cartography as the summer months are the key data gathering

months. The agreement is already in place and could be kept to a maximum of $10,000 if the board wants

to limit the costs at this time. Manager Mendiola reviewed the request for the Commission. Jerry Elkins

of Central Nevada Cartography appeared via teleconference and reviewed the request and explained the

need for the ability to do collection in July and stay involved going forward. Commissioner Cerri noted

that he is struggling with this service when looking at needs versus wants; that while he understands the

importance of getting it done he questions if we should be doing it at this time as he is a bit reluctant to

spend dollars not knowing where we are and where we will be financially. Commissioner Bell offered no

comment. Commissioner Brissenden offered no questions but supported allowing Mr. Elkins to get back

to the job as the benefits outweigh the negatives. Commissioner French agreed that the wants versus

needs was a struggle initially for him as well but based on the way the Department of Interior moved

forward with a roads plan in Humboldt County and based on the way the policy was being manipulated,

he truly feels this has become a need not a want; he continued commenting on actions by the Department

of the Interior and his concerns with those actions effect on the economy and the ability of the County to

provide services as well as his concern that if the County doesn’t do something to keep this viable they

20

06/15/2020 Page 14 of 14

may not be able to pick it up at a later date; he suggested that at the very least a contract be maintained

in a limited fashion during this time as if the bottom falls out this contract as well as all the others will

need to be revisited; he stated his belief that what needs to be produced is enough product to argue

RS2477 viability in the County. Chairman Tipton agreed that this weighs more towards the need, that

maybe it won’t be full steam ahead but that couldn’t occur right now anyway but that we need to obtain

sufficient information to create a document so we will be able to control roads as we see fit.

Commissioner Cerri commented on the presentation after the work done last year and what had been

identified and questioned what it had shown in relation to RS2477 roads. Mr. Elkins clarified what was

shown as proving roads are RS 2477 as to BLM land and explained that the gray area is private land.

Commissioner French commented on RS 2477 Roads and what a change of administration could impact

as well as the need to be able to identify them to be able to make a case; he again stated that he believes

this is a need not a want. The following motion was made by Commissioner Bell with Chairman Tipton

and Commissioners Brissenden, Bell and French voting aye and Commissioner Cerri voting nay:

To approve the agenda item as presented.

Mr. Elkins stated that he is ready at any time to go full bore on this as it may take up to five years

to do.

FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS: Manager Mendiola identified the water plan adoption procedures with dates

for one of the July meetings, the ratification of the General Unit’s bargaining agreement for July 6th and

the diesel tax procedural discussion. Chairman Tipton requested that something be agendized for

discussion about Lithium Nevada’s water/chemical usage.

PUBLIC COMMENT: Chairman Tipton asked for public comment; none offered.

ADJOURNMENT: Chairman Tipton adjourned the meeting at 12:26 p.m.

The county has designated the main entrance as a single point of entry for the public and employees to help prevent the spread of the coronavirus. This entry will screen for potentially COVID-19 infectious people that could contaminate the facilities and increase the threat of exposure to the public and employees. The project will replace an existing non-compliant ADA ramp with stairs and an enclosed ADA compliant lift connecting an upper plaza at floor level with a lower plaza at street grade. The current ramp can require assistance from others to enter the facility. The enclosed lift will allow the elderly and disabled to visit the facility with ease. This ADA compliant lift will help prevent coronavirus by allowing the elderly and disabled to social distance while visiting, as they will no longer require assistance from an employee or other individual. This reduction in risk is critical to prevention as it protects these individuals who may be at a higher risk of infection or severe illness because of underlying medical conditions. I. SCOPE OF WORK (SoW) Provide a clear, concise description of the proposed project identifying how the project will prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus including any milestones, reports, and deliverables (task and an end product) expected to be provided. Fully describe all activities for all parts of the proposed project; a description of the immediate and adjacent geographical areas; any and all effects the project will have on the geographical areas; any and all contemplated actions. Maps and photographs may be an attachment to the application, if applicable. Update and provide accessibility upgrades to existing county courthouse and offices. Non – ADA Compliant entry will be upgraded to meet ABA/ADA guidelines, state and federal codes for accessibility. Design process will include public engagement to fully develop design solution. Design will lead to construction documentation. Construction project will result in county courthouse and offices being accessible to all county residents and visitors. This project will help prevent coronavirus by allowing the elderly and disabled to social distance while visiting, as they will not need assistance from an employee or other individual to gain access to the facility. This accessibility is critical as it protects these individuals who may be at a higher risk of infection or severe illness because of underlying medical conditions while

31

allowing them access to local government offices. Additionally, this will create a single point of entry to the courthouse and offices to allow for thorough monitoring of visitor’s temperatures and other symptoms of the virus. Project improvements include: accessible lift, entry plaza, upgraded stairs, and related site furnishings and improvements. Project boundaries are the courthouse entry on 5th Street, and 5th Street frontage. Phase I: Planning – COUNTY Funded

II. PROJECT NEEDS ANALYSIS:

1. What is the need of the community and how was it determined? This project addresses accessibility needs for an outdated public courthouse and office facility. The current entry ramp does not meet ABA/ADA standards for accessible entries and is an increased public safety risk during inclement weather. This became urgent with the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. The initial high rate of infection per capita in our community resulted in the shutdown of public access to county offices and courts. Humboldt County considered CDC recommendations and created a re-opening plan. It was determined that a single point of entry would allow thorough monitoring of temperatures and virus symptoms. This monitoring, along with social distancing, and the reduction of unnecessary visitors would assist in preventing the spread of coronavirus to employees and the public. The current entry ramp does not meet ABA/ADA standards for

33

accessible entries and requires assistance for the elderly and those with disabilities. This assistance does not allow for adherence to social distance protocols while navigating the ramp. Renovation of the ramp would allow for the reduction of unnecessary visitors and allows adherence to social distance protocols. With compliance to protective measures, it is anticipated that the courthouse and county offices could remain accessible while protecting the public, employees, and especially the elderly and disabled adults who may be at higher risk of infection during the coronavirus or future pandemics.

2. How is it being addressed presently?

Current entry ramp exceeds maximum slopes with no landings or handrails with distance of the path of travel. Entrance is navigated with assistance by others, for the elderly and disabled adults.

3. What is the proposed response to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus? Upgraded courthouse entry will create a better separation for courthouse visitors, and staff, and will prevent the spread of coronavirus, while the project addresses federal and state standards as they relate to ABA/ADA standards.

4. Why is the proposed project required to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus? Provides an appropriate entry point for all users for monitoring of temperatures and other symptons. Staff, and visitors gain access to courthouse independently via stairs or ADA compliant lift which allows for the elderly and disabled adults to social distance while accessing this entry point.

5. How does the proposed project activity meet the need or to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus? Proposed project meets the need to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus by allowing elderly and disabled the ability to follow guidelines of social distancing, while allowing them access to local governement. This project will allow all users, staff, and courthouse visitors to use the single point of entry for thorough monitoring of temperatures and other symptons to prevent the spread of coronavirus or future pandemic.

6. How will the potential grantee know if the need has been met or the project has prevented, prepared for, and responded to coronavirus?

The project will have successfully prevented the coronavirus or future pandemic by the independent use of the covered lift by the elderly and disabled while visiting the public facility.

SCOPE OF WORK (SoW) Provide a clear, concise description of the proposed project identifying how the project will prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus including any milestones, reports, and deliverables (task and an end product) expected to be provided. Fully describe all activities for all parts of the proposed project; a description of the immediate and adjacent geographical areas; any and all effects the project will have on the geographical areas; any and all contemplated actions. Maps and photographs may be an attachment to the application, if applicable. Winnemucca Domestic Violence Services (WDVS) proposes to purchase a residential facility to utilize as a domestic violence shelter for its clients. The advent of the coronavirus has greatly challenged the ability of WDVS to shelter clients safely, given the risk of infection from congregate living in current shelter locations (multiple clients/children living in single apartments) and the risk to safety of placing clients in motel/hotel rooms in order to have separate units. The proposed shelter will allow for WDVS to prevent, prepare for, and respond to the coronavirus and other infectious diseases in the following ways:

o Prepare – WDVS will retain the studio apartment it currently uses in the case that a client had the cornonavirus and needed to be quarantined.

o Prevent – The residential building proposed for purchase has 10 separate rooms each with its own toilet and sink. This separation and access to handwashing will prevent transmission of disease among clients or between clients and staff. The new shelter will have a resident manager who can teach and enforce safe and healthy personal and facility sanitation practices.

o Respond – We live in an era of the coronavirus where we must figure out how to keep victims and their children safe and provide our services - without risking infection. This new shelter would help us to protect the health and safety of our clients, and to launch them into well-being.

49

Paying for internet at one location instead of three would allow us to provide clients with the ability to have tele-health visits and tele-consults for their mental health

The large group room would allow for services to be provided at the residence, so that the barrier of lack of transportation to the office is removed.

The large room will also allow for socially distanced support groups and life skills classes, so that clients can gain stability and financial independence

Without the ability to bring clients into one location in this fashion, we do not have the ability to ensure their physical health during a time at which they urgently need safety and support. Further, the configuration of the building will, by allowing all shelter clients and other clients of WDVS to meet in one location, greatly increase WDVS’ ability to provide support services and classes that will increase clients’ opportunity to gain emotional and financial independence for themselves and their children. ACTIVITIES: The activities associated with this project are also described in the Project Implementation Schedule below. They include: appraisal (if not completed already); completion of any Environmental Review activities required; building inspection; building purchase; shelter remodel with the installation of doors to create ‘family suites’; painting (services donated as in-kind); furnishing (much of furniture donated as in-kind); installation of security measures, including perimeter fencing, cameras, lighting. Immediate and adjacent geographical areas, impact: The building is located at 1250 Hansen St., a main east-west artery in central Winnemucca. The adjacent areas are two apartment buildings, separated by fencing. The impact will be minimal, as the building is currently used as a residential facility and has adequate parking, set back from the street, and utilities service to meet the needs of the intended use. PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE: Jean/Jessica – not sure timing of GOED interactions Provide the timeline that indicates activities and estimated dates to complete the project in the HUD recommended 12- or 24-month time frame.

II. PROJECT NEEDS ANALYSIS:

1. What is the need of the community and how was it determined? 2. How is it being addressed presently? 3. What is the proposed response to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus? 4. Why is the proposed project required to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus? 5. How does the proposed project activity meet the need or to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus? 6. How will the potential grantee know if the need has been met or the project has prevented, prepared for, and

responded to coronavirus?

Winnemucca Domestic Violence Services (WDVS) a 501 c 3 nonprofit, has been meeting the needs of domestic violence survivors and their children since 2005. Over that span of time, emergency shelter services have been provided through a variety of means, including renting single family homes, apartments, and motel rooms. The instability of providing shelter through dispersed rental properties has impeded WDVS’ ability to provide safety to clients and their children, and their ability to provide trauma recovery and restorative services, such as support groups, financial coaching, transportation to public benefit offices, and other means of enabling clients to gain emotional and economic independence.

This project will allow WDVS to prepare for, prevent, and respond to the coronavirus and other infectious

diseases in the following ways:

o Prepare – WDVS will retain the studio apartment it currently uses in the case that a client had the cornonavirus and needed to be quarantined.

o Prevent – The residential building proposed for purchase has 10 separate rooms each with its own toilet and sink. This separation and access to handwashing will prevent transmission of disease among clients or between clients and staff. The new shelter will have a resident manager who can teach and enforce safe and healthy personal and facility sanitation practices.

o Respond – We live in an era of the coronavirus where we must figure out how to provide our services without risking infection. This new shelter would help us in so many ways Paying for internet at one location instead of three would allow us to provide clients with the

ability to have tele-health visits and tele-consults for their mental health The large group room would allow for services to be provided at the residence, so that the

barrier of lack of transportation to the office is removed. The large room will also allow for socially distanced support groups and life skills classes, so that

clients can gain stability and financial independence

Without the ability to bring clients into one location in this fashion, we do not have the ability to ensure their physical health during a time at which they urgently need safety and support. We will know the need has been met when there is no incidence of infection within the shelter, and when any infected or exposed individuals are segregated into the studio apartment and the infection is not transmitted to WDSV staff or other clients.

Assessor’sOffice

Jeff Johnson • Assessor

July 24, 2020 Humboldt County Commission 50 West 5th Street Winnemucca, NV 89445 Dear Honorable Commissioners: I am here before you once again to ask for a waiver to the attrition policy. The Assessor’s office was successful in hiring a new data collector who started July 27th filling our vacant data collector/appraiser position. While going through the interview process it became clear to us that there were two very strong candidates and a tough decision was at hand. Ideally it would have been the perfect opportunity to hire both candidates but unfortunately, we had to select one. I am asking for approval to open up a data collector position now so that we can send a letter of intent to the other candidate and secure their position with Humboldt County. I would like to show good faith to this applicant and fill the vacancy now, that will be left when Jeff retires. We will still advertise internally for a week to make sure there are no transfers that would qualify. If this is approved the projected start date would be August 24th, 2020 because of the week of advertising plus the candidate putting in their two-week notice. Approving this hire still saves Humboldt County over $55,000 from our approved budget for this year. By approving this new candidate to start a few weeks prior to Jeff’s retirement will allow me to get their feet settled in and all of the new hire documentation out of the way so we can focus in at their true job duties once he leaves. Like I have previous listed, below is just some of the Assessor’s office responsibilities or functions that we are require to complete.

• $143,000 in new construction tax revenue for 2019/20 fiscal year Looking like $230,000 for this year.

• 2nd biggest revenue stream to the county

• Permits are not slowing down in the building department

• Reduction of over $100,00 in tax revenue if we stop revalue and new land valuations (This would be if we just let the values remain as they are)

• $125,000 a year if the State has to send us an appraiser

• $500,000 a year if the State has to send us a contract appraiser

• Assessed values affect CTX and fuel tax distributions

• NRS 361.260 states that the assessor’s office must value each property by “diligent inquire and examination” for new appraisals and reappraisals’

• We still have a conversion to work through which will need a lot of our office’s time and attention I appreciate the time you have taken to consider this matter and I look forward to any questions that you may have. Thank you,

Andy Heiser Chief Deputy Assessor

Executive Summary

On March 12, 2020, Governor Steve Sisolak issued the Declaration of Emergency for COVID-19 pursuant to the emergency powers conferred upon the Governor of Nevada by chapter 414 of NRS.

The purpose of these policies and procedures is to notify event operators of Nevada’s operational requirements to minimize the risk of exposure to COVID-19. During the state of emergency, certain events may be conducted without live spectators or guests for the purpose of broadcast or streaming. For purposes of these policies and procedures, the term “Event” means any live event that is traditionally held before an in-person audience. The term includes, without limitation, sporting events, concerts, entertainment shows, and non-sporting competitions.

These policies and procedures constitute the minimum requirements that should be followed by Event Operators. For purposes of these policies and procedures, the term “Event Operators” shall include, without limitation, the producer and sponsor of the event, any governing or sanctioning body with jurisdiction over the event or its participants, the owner and operator of the venue in which the event will be held, any third-party contractor involved in the presentation of the event, any other party involved in the presentation of the event, and any agent or employee of those entities or persons. These policies and procedures shall be adhered to under the combined effort of the Event Operators.

To hold an Event while these policies and procedures are in effect, an Event Operator shall submit an Operation Plan to the appropriate state or local authority with jurisdiction over the Event. The Operation Plan shall provide, in detail, the plans the Event Operators will follow to comply with the requirements of these policies and procedures. Such Operation Plan shall be submitted to the appropriate state or local authority at least [X] days prior to the planned date of the Event to allow for adequate review of the Operation Plan. An Event shall not take place unless the Operation Plan is approved by the appropriate state or local authority.

These policies and procedures are intended to serve as the general policy of the State of Nevada. An entity with jurisdiction over a particular Event or type of Event may implement and enforce equal or more stringent requirements.

These procedures and policies shall be effective until further notice.

Closed Events

97

Section I: Closed System Operations

A. Closed System

In addition to adherence to all Federal, state, and local regulations and guidelines concerning COVID-19 mitigation, including those promulgated under the Governor’s March 12, 2020 Declaration of Emergency, Events may only proceed while utilizing a closed system of operations. The core principle of a closed system is to minimize the chance of transmission of COVID-19.

The term “closed system” should be construed to encompass the entire network of operations through which the Event is produced. It is not limited to the main event(s) being operated or performed for broadcast or streaming, but includes, without limitation, personnel management, all facilities utilized (e.g., event venue, lodging, staging areas, training/practice facilities, rest areas, etc.), and transportation.

Key components of a closed system include, but are not limited to, prohibiting the general public from having access, limiting access to specified personnel, controlled points of ingress/egress, policies and procedures for introducing personnel into the closed system, provision of medical testing, control and monitoring of the utilized facilities to ensure adherence to social distancing standards, organization and layout of event space to ensure social distancing standards, sanitation procedures, and policies and procedures to ensure limited compromise of the closed network in the event of a positive COVID-19 test.

Operation Plans should be written with the core goal of explaining the policies and procedures Event Operators are implementing to ensure a closed system for the duration of the event.

B. Facilities

Event Operators must ensure that the closed system is structured to account for all facilities being used in the production of the event. Operation Plans must provide details on all facilities being utilized, and relevant policies and procedures for maintaining integrity of the closed system across facilities. This includes, but is not limited to:

● Event Venue

Information on the venue where the main event intended for broadcasting/streaming is being hosted, and ancillary facilities (staging rooms, locker rooms, green rooms, production/media rooms, and other “back-of-house” facilities being used to facilitate production of the event).

● Lodging

Information on lodging/housing accommodations being utilized, including e.g. details on the number and distribution of personnel among housing.

● Training/Practice Facilities

Information on any facilities being utilized for training or practice. Event Operators should note whether equipment used at a training/practice facility (sporting equipment, musical instruments, etc.) will also be used in the main event and note how equipment will be moved about the closed system to ensure integrity of the system.

Operating Plans must include a floor plan or diagram of the event venue (and back-of-house facilities being used). Floor plans should include sufficient labeling and notation. This includes, without limitation, marking the placement of personnel to indicate adherence to social distancing, labeling of areas by function, marking points of ingress/egress to the closed system, and noting movement flow of personnel.

Floor plans of lodging and training/practices facilities are not required as part of the Operating Plan.

98

C. Personnel

An essential component of maintaining the integrity of a closed system is controlled access, movement, and function of ALL personnel involved in event operations. “Personnel” includes, without limitation, production staff, security personnel, cleaning staff, medical staff, event participants (athletes, performers), participants’ support staff, officiants, regulatory agents or other state or local government officials, and any other individuals introduced into the closed system.

Operation Plans must include details on personnel including, but not limited to, number of personnel, title/function of personnel to the production, responsibility for personnel (i.e., details on principal/agent relationship an individual is operating under--is the individual an agent of the venue operator, a professional sports sanctioning organization, event production company, etc.), details on any internal system being used to group/designate personnel and the privileges afforded to those groups (Example: what access to specific parts of the venue are granted to personnel falling within a certain group, expected interaction between personnel, etc.). Personnel should likewise be visually identifiable through a credential marker such as a badge or uniform.

Prior to entering the closed system, all personnel should be provided information on the importance of safe measures to mitigate the spread of virus infection utilizing recommendations from the CDC. Operation Plans should include a copy of the education being provided and details on how such information is being disseminated to personnel.

In recognition of Governor Sisolak’s March 31, 2020 travel advisory for the State of Nevada, all personnel traveling into Nevada should limit, to the greatest extent possible, interaction with the Nevada public. Personnel should treat the closed system as a large-scale quarantine, and should make arrangements for the procurement of required goods and services from outside of the closed system that limits interaction with the Nevada public (example: delivery of goods rather than traveling to a retail location for pickup, or alternatively having designated personnel local to Nevada to handle pickup).

Maintaining social distancing is a key component to the closed system. However, the nature of some events, particularly contact sports, may involve prolonged interaction between personnel within 6 feet of one another. Operation Plans should note where such anticipated close-quarters interactions are anticipated to occur in the normal course of the event.

Facial coverings are required for all personnel.

D. Sanitation of Closed System

Event Operators must ensure a sufficient number of dedicated sanitation staff within the closed system trained in COVID-19 cleaning and disinfection protocols as recommended by the CDC https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/disinfecting-building-facility.html.

Operating Plans must provide an overview of sanitation procedures that will be implemented prior to, and through the course of, the event. Details should include procedures for sanitation of locations/facilities, equipment, and means of transportation. Plans must also detail sanitation procedures for parts of the closed system that present a higher risk of exposure to infection, specifically facilities and equipment where medical testing is performed and any facilities where personnel are quarantined while awaiting the results of testing. Sanitation procedures should also provide specific procedures for disposal of medical waste.

Section II: Health & Safety

A. Closed System Screenings

A key step in preventing compromise of the closed system is a controlled process for introduction of personnel into the system. Event Organizers should have detailed policies and procedures in place for admitting personnel, including, but not limited to, temperature screenings (maximum 100.4°F), a questionnaire assessing recent activity by the individual, COVID-19 testing, and intermediary quarantine between testing and results.

Information to be ascertained prior to entry into the closed system includes, but is not limited to:

● What, if any, travel has the individual made in the past 2-weeks, particularly to or from an area that is considered high risk or includes a government mandated quarantine.

99

● Whether the individual has come into contact with a person confirmed, or suspected to be, infected with COVID-19, and if so, when.

● Whether the individual, in the past two weeks, has experienced any symptoms associated with COVID-19, including: ○ Coughing ○ Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing ○ Fever ○ Chills ○ Muscle pain ○ Sore throat ○ New loss of taste of smell ○ Nausea ○ Vomiting ○ Diarrhea

Operating Plans should detail what personnel will be responsible for administering the questionnaire, including who will be assessing the answers and making a determination as to whether the questioned individual may enter the closed system. Questionnaires must be reviewed by a professional medical consultant.

B. COVID-19 Testing

All personnel must be subjected to both viral and antibody testing. Event Operators must provide for testing in a facility/setting that offers sufficient continuity into the closed system so as to minimize risk of personnel exposure between testing and entrance into the closed system. Event Operators should consult with appropriate health officials regarding test frequency--due to limitations on detecting COVID-19 very early in an infected individual through viral testing, Event Operators may need to conduct multiple rounds of viral testing dependent on the duration of the event. Event Operators should also be educated in the basics of COVID-19 testing as explained on the CDC’s Testing information webpage, as well as the CDC’s guidance on INTERPRETING COVID-19 TEST RESULTS. Testing should be overseen by a trained medical professional.

Viral testing--testing that is used to determine if an individual currently has a COVID-19 infection through samples from an individual’s respiratory system--must be administered by nasal swab or saliva collection. Event Operators must coordinate for delivery and testing of samples to a laboratory conducting FDA testing or other viral testing resources provided by state health officials. Collecting and handling of viral tests should be done in accordance with CDC interim guidelines.

Antibody testing--testing that is used to determine if an individual has been previously infected with COVID-19 through blood analysis--must likewise be administered by a trained medical professional.

Operation Plans must detail policies and procedures for the administration of tests, including, without limitation, identifying medical personnel that will be responsible for administration of testing, agreements with state and local health officials regarding testing, and quarantining procedures for personnel while awaiting test results.

C. Positive Test Results

Any personnel testing positive for COVID-19 will be required to seek immediate primary care, and enter isolation in accordance with local, state, and CDC guidance. Event Operators must have policies and procedures in place, consistent with CDC guidance on Quarantine and Isolation, to provide resources for personnel traveling from out-of-state in the event they must enter isolation.

Any personnel that have had close contact with personnel testing positive for COVID-19 will be required to enter into quarantine for 14 days in accordance with local, state, and CDC recommendations on Quarantine measures. Event Operators must have policies and procedures in place, to provide resources for personnel traveling from out-of-state in the event they must enter quarantine. Such policies and procedures must be specified in the Operation Plan for the Event.

Operation Plans should detail the policies and procedures in place for personnel that must enter isolation or quarantine. These policies and procedures must include, at minimum, provision of housing for isolated/quarantined individuals, and a plan for administering healthcare treatment to infected individuals in consultation with healthcare experts.

100

D. Contact Tracing

Information must be held on file for all personnel sufficient to conduct contact tracing in the event of a positive test. Operation Plans must detail procedures for contact tracing, including, but not limited to, which personnel will be responsible for coordinating contact tracing operations with the state and local health authorities. Contact tracing must be conducted in accordance with CDC principles as outlined at Contact Tracing : Part of a Multipronged Approach to Fight the COVID-19 Pandemic.

E. Social Distancing

A core principle of operating an event in a closed system is facilitating an environment promoting social distancing by personnel. As identified by the CDC, the key tenets of social distancing are maintaining a minimum distance of 6 feet between individuals, avoid gathering in groups, and avoid crowded places/mass gatherings.

Event Operators must consider all applicable Federal, state, and local social distancing guidelines, including those addressing limits on the size of public gatherings, across all aspects of the event, including, without limit, the stationing/placement of personnel (example: spacing of recording equipment, spacing of musicians in a concert, etc.), the movement and flow of personnel in performance of their duties, the grouping of personnel in staging and waiting areas, the transportation of personnel, the lodging or housing arrangements for personnel, and any extended one-on-one interactions between personnel (example: post-game interview of an athlete).

Operation Plans must detail policies and procedures that are designed, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, to adhere to social distancing.

F. Personal Protective Equipment

All personnel must utilize personal protective equipment (“PPE”) at all times during the Event. Operation Plans must detail who will be responsible for the procurement and distribution of PPE, what PPE will be utilized by personnel (at minimum, Cloth Face Coverings), and what education/instruction will be provided on the proper use of PPE. Cleaning staff must also wear gloves. State and local health authorities should also be consulted with regards to appropriate PPE for medical personnel, such as those conducting COVID-19 testing.

Due to the nature of some events, there may be periods where it is impractical for those participating to wear PPE. Operation Plans should note where such instances will be anticipated to occur in the normal course of the event.

This guidance is intended to help CFBOs prevent the transmission of COVID-19 within their facilities and communities. CFBOs need to be able to react quickly if there is a confirmed COVID-19 case among staff, volunteers, the people they serve, or visitors. CFBOs, working together with schools, businesses, healthcare systems and state and local health departments, have an important role in slowing the spread of diseases, especially among high risk populations. CFBOs often serve those who are most vulnerable, such as older people and those with serious underlying health conditions – like heart disease, lung disease, and diabetes – who are at higher risk of developing severe COVID-19 illness. This may include members and regular attendees or people they serve as well as persons from the broader community.

● Disinfect high-touch areas frequently. Those include: door handles, trash receptacle touchpoints, control equipment, phones, computers, office equipment, counters, elevator buttons, handrails, tables, seats, benches, high chairs, toilets, sink faucets and toilet handles, soap dispenser push plates, baby changing stations, ice scoops, refrigerator handles, towel dispenser handles, cleaning tools, counter tops, door knobs, light switches, sinks, queue rails, harnesses, restraints, ATM machines, dining surfaces, etc. ● Consider removing high-touch surfaces (e.g. doors) if they aren’t completely necessary. ● Use disinfectants outlined on EPA List N. Consult product specifications to determine how often cleaning should take place. ● If restrooms are open:

● Consider dedicating employees to cleaning/disinfecting restrooms frequently. They should also monitor/control restroom capacity to uphold physical distancing guidelines in those facilities. ● Consider closing or otherwise disabling every other (or every two) toilets to ensure guests maintain physical distancing protocols in restrooms. ● Post a log in visible site of times restrooms are cleaned.

● Disinfect ride surfaces frequently touched by guests or employees, including handrails, arm rests, restraints, lap bars, grips, seatbelts, over-the-shoulder harnesses, etc.

● The frequency and approach to sanitizing should be based on the guidelines provided on the cleaning chemicals, which should be determine based on the surface being cleaned. ● When physically verifying that safety gates are locked and secured, operators can use their feet or knees to check movement. If hands must be used to ensure a gate is locked, operators should wash/sanitize hands before moving on to another task. ● Consider reducing the number of guests per ride vehicle to facilitate physical distancing between riders. ● Board family members/others living in the same household in the same vehicle when possible. ● Carefully evaluate attractions that require time-consuming personal harnessing like ropes courses, climbing walls, and steel-cable swing rides because of the difficulty managing personal distancing during the harnessing process. The increased cleaning and sanitizing of the harnesses and other equipment between each use may also be difficult and time consuming. ● For miniature golf courses, consider ways to reduce surfaces guests touch frequently. Several approaches to reduce guest contact with the holes on the course include placing a piece of round coated foam (like a swimming pool noodle) in a mini-golf hole to reduce the depth of the hole or removing routes where balls drop into hole-in-one cups and have them roll onto the carpet instead. For courses that print custom scorecards, allow guests to get their own ticket out of the printer. Disinfect balls, putters, and pencils after each use.

● Establishments shall continue to follow the regulations provided in NAC 640C.200-360 with emphasis on NAC 640C.200(2)(b). Additional emergency regulations approved by the Board on May 8, 2020, require the establishment and licensees to ensure that normal sanitation practices completed on a daily basis are now completed between each client. ● Based on the CDC and OSHA recommendations all establishments should be cleaned and then disinfected with a product on the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) List-N, shown to meet the EPA’s requirements as being effective against SARS-CoV-2. If possible, the product selected should also be bactericidal and fungicidal. The importance of ensuring the contact time with the product is critical to its effectivity. Since contact times vary, establishments should ensure that EPA recommendations are observed. ● Steam rooms, saunas, and spas shall remain closed and unavailable for guest use. ● Social distancing in waiting areas and locker rooms should be maintained at the distance recommended by the CDC, OSHA, Governor’s Directives, and/or local jurisdictions. As each guest enters the facility, they should be informed of the social distancing practice being observed by the establishment. Adequate time should be provided between scheduled appointments including staggering appointments to reduce the number of clients in waiting rooms in order to comply with social distancing recommendations. For establishments with single treatment rooms, it is recommended that the client remain in their car until the licensee informs the client that they are ready for their appointment. ● Remove unnecessary items from waiting areas, locker rooms, restrooms and treatment rooms. All surfaces in these areas should be sanitized between each use. Porous surfaces should be covered with a nonporous protective layer which should then be disposed of or sanitized between each client. ● Phones, computers, cash registers, credit card equipment and other items used by employees or licensees to conduct business, should be sanitized between each client. Reception desk staff should minimize their exposure to items touched by the client or guest. If possible, allow clients to swipe or insert their own credit card. If cash transactions are unavoidable, follow the handwashing protocol and sanitize any surface that came into contact during the exchange.

● Public contact with retail products should be minimized. Clients or guests may select their products and place them in a bag or other receptacle. Items in the bag not purchased should be sanitized before being returned to the stock. Remove all testers from the retail area, locker rooms, and waiting areas. Personal items normally provided by the establishment should be provided by an employ upon request. ● Posting signage about the steps the establishment is taking to ensure client, employee, and licensee safety will help the public know your commitment to their health and safety. Establishments may consider adding information about the policies and practices to their websites. ● Requesting that a client or guest wash their hands or use hand sanitizer before, after, and during each treatment may help protect the licensee and employees. ● Client contact with non-sanitized floor surface should be minimized. For locations with flooring that cannot be sanitized between clients using a non-porous barrier to protect the client and the licensee from potential contaminates on the floor is advised. The barrier should be placed between where the client undresses and the table. For licensees that evaluate gate and require clients to walk in their treatment rooms, if the floor cannot be sanitized, a non-porous barrier should be used in the area where the client will be walking. ● All linens should be sanitized by washing with laundry detergent and hot water followed by drying using the highest setting. For establishments with linens provided by a service, the establishment should review the contract or contact the linen service to ensure proper sanitation guidelines are being followed.

● No walk-ins are permitted, and licensees and therapists must only serve one client at a time. ● Prior to the licensee providing services, a basic screening of the signs and symptoms of COVID-19 should be conducted along with a health history intake form. Screening of existing clients should include at a minimum the following questions:

● During the past 14 days have you experienced a fever, dry cough, fatigue, or systemic muscle aches or pain? ● During the past 14 days have you or anyone in your home experienced a fever, dry cough, fatigue, or systemic muscle aches or pain? ● During the past 14 days have you been around anyone who has experienced a fever, dry cough, fatigue, or systemic muscle aches or pain? ● Are you currently residing with anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19 or is being quarantined for possible exposure to COVID-19 or any other pathogen? ● Have you taken any medication in the past 6 hours that could have lowered your body temperature such as aspirin, Tylenol, or Ibuprofen? ● Have you travelled outside the state of Nevada in the past 14 days?

This is intended for administrators, Directors, and leaders of Schools and Training within the state of Nevada. This guidance is intended to help schools and Training Facilities prevent the transmission of COVID-19 within their facilities and communities. Schools and Training facilities need to be able to react quickly if there is a confirmed COVID-19 case among staff, volunteers, the people they serve, or visitors. Schools, businesses, healthcare systems and state and local health departments, have an important role in slowing the spread of diseases, especially among high risk populations. Within the State of Nevada, we have many different levels of training and instruction for many different industries.

Elementary and Secondary schools, Junior Colleges, Colleges and Universities should follow the direction of their State of Nevada governing agency with direct coordination with the Governor’s Office for the procedures and policies for reopening.

Trade and Apprenticeship training Schools, Professional and Management development training, Fine Art schools, Transportation Training: Flight & Automobile, Sports and Recreation Training, Educational Support Services, Exam preparation and Tutoring Services, all other Miscellaneous Schools and Instruction should adhere to the following procedures and polices while reopening.
