1 00:03:31,150 --> 00:03:57,830 Good morning. This is the recommending committee for January 5th, 2026, Happy New Year. And we are officially called to order and I will assume we are in compliance with the open meeting law. Yes, we are. Thank you so much. Item number three is public comment. Comment during this portion of the agenda must be limited to matters on the agenda for action. If you wish to be heard, please come forward and state your name for the record. Hearing and seeing none, we'll close the public comment period. Item number four is for possible actions to approve the final minutes by reference. 2 00:03:57,830 --> 00:04:01,610 to the November 17th, 2025 recommending committee. 3 00:04:01,770 --> 00:04:02,470 I'll entertain a motion. 4 00:04:02,950 --> 00:04:03,410 So moved. 5 00:04:03,970 --> 00:04:05,310 There's a motion to approve. 6 00:04:05,850 --> 00:04:06,930 Please vote, 7 00:04:09,100 --> 00:04:11,200 post, and that item passes. 8 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,760 Moving on to item number five, bill number 2025-41. 9 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:19,120 For possible action amendments, LVMC6.04.155 and 6.69. 10 00:04:19,700 --> 00:04:23,280 0.010 to update the definitions of the business licensing categories. 11 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,120 Transportation network company and reflexology, 12 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:31,620 respectively to align with state law proposed by our Community Development Director, Seth Floyd. 13 00:04:32,260 --> 00:04:34,120 Thank you Mayor Perotem, Seth Floyd for the record. 14 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:35,240 Yeah, this is very straightforward. 15 00:04:35,580 --> 00:04:39,520 All it does is add a reference in our code for 16 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,580 transportation network company to NRS Chapter 706A. 17 00:04:43,780 --> 00:04:45,880 So the definition always tracks with state law. 18 00:04:46,420 --> 00:04:53,360 And then for, if I can flip the page here, for reflexology, 19 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:57,140 It would just reference NRS chapter 640C, and that's all it does. 20 00:04:58,220 --> 00:04:58,680 Perfect. 21 00:04:59,140 --> 00:05:01,500 I don't have any questions, are there any other questions up here? 22 00:05:03,140 --> 00:05:04,300 There is a question, please. 23 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,980 Thank you, Ms. MPT. 24 00:05:07,580 --> 00:05:15,400 Mr. Floyd, so transportation network company, does that encapsulate even the autonomous vehicles 25 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,680 that are now being offered to drive? 26 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:26,800 We're seeing more and more, you know, the different types of driverless vehicles, so I just wanted to kind of be clear for myself. 27 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:34,700 Are they encapsulated or do they have their own category? And by TNC, is it strictly just being then the Uber, the Lyfts? 28 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:41,840 I'm just trying to get some clarity for us as we navigate the different modes of transportation and diversity. 29 00:05:41,840 --> 00:05:42,780 Good 30 00:05:47,290 --> 00:05:52,990 morning, Mayor Pro Tem. Through you, Councilwoman, no, this one will not include those 31 00:05:52,990 --> 00:05:58,610 ones. We do have another ordinance that's we're drafting to include the autonomous vehicles 32 00:05:58,610 --> 00:06:05,230 and some of the digital platforms that are doing delivery services and those kinds of things. 33 00:06:05,990 --> 00:06:10,790 So this is going to be more that Uber and the Lyft. Okay, so then the zoos and the veys and those 34 00:06:10,790 --> 00:06:13,890 then are in a separate category from TNCs. 35 00:06:14,150 --> 00:06:14,850 Okay, I just slide. 36 00:06:15,090 --> 00:06:19,810 It does, it just texted me, it does include the autonomous vehicles. 37 00:06:20,010 --> 00:06:22,150 But the other ones are going to have more clarifying language in it. 38 00:06:22,530 --> 00:06:26,570 So yes, the state did add this to it, so it will include it, I apologize. 39 00:06:27,050 --> 00:06:29,550 And then TNCs are different from taxis, too, correct? 40 00:06:29,650 --> 00:06:31,290 Correct, okay, all right. 41 00:06:31,790 --> 00:06:34,150 And Seth, I'll just read the, since it's pretty short, 42 00:06:34,310 --> 00:06:37,410 the definition as it currently stands in state law says that a transportation 43 00:06:37,410 --> 00:06:45,810 The decision that we're company or company means an entity that uses a digital network or software application service to connect a passenger to a driver or 44 00:06:45,810 --> 00:06:51,010 monitored autonomous vehicle provider who can provide transportation services to the passenger. 45 00:06:51,690 --> 00:06:58,210 And what the bill does is because we're tying our definition now to state law, if there is ever a state law change. 46 00:06:58,690 --> 00:07:03,570 To either add something, take something away or clarify, we will always track with whatever state laws. 47 00:07:03,570 --> 00:07:07,270 So keep us consistent without having to come back every time and do a new bill. 48 00:07:07,670 --> 00:07:08,750 Okay, thank you. 49 00:07:09,050 --> 00:07:13,810 That was a great question, so I didn't think about it, so it's worth any other questions. 50 00:07:14,190 --> 00:07:16,230 This is a public hearing, if anybody would like to comment. 51 00:07:18,150 --> 00:07:20,230 Hearing and seeing none, I'll entertain a motion. 52 00:07:21,270 --> 00:07:22,030 I move to approve. 53 00:07:22,690 --> 00:07:23,950 There's a motion, please vote. 54 00:07:25,490 --> 00:07:28,190 And post and that, 55 00:07:31,140 --> 00:07:33,080 my belief passes, yeah, there it is. 56 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:38,480 And we'll be heard, let's see, I'll do that at the end. 57 00:07:39,380 --> 00:07:52,580 The item number six has been number 2025-42 for possible action amendments, LVMC 6.02.02.150 to clarify the requirement that separate license or permits are needed for each assumed or fictitious business name that is associated with the business. 58 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,980 This is proposed by a South Florida Director of Community Development. 59 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:02,860 Thank you, Mayor Patelman, and I'm actually going to turn this one over to Darcy to explain what we're doing with this one. 60 00:08:02,860 --> 00:08:03,520 Hi, 61 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:06,740 Darcy, I thought I heard for the record. 62 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,540 Yeah, so this one also is just clarifying language. 63 00:08:10,100 --> 00:08:15,300 We do require that every business that has a fictitious name have a business license. 64 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:16,820 It was already in code. 65 00:08:16,820 --> 00:08:20,520 This is just making it cleaner because people use the names, fictitious firm name, and 66 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:21,480 doing business as. 67 00:08:21,740 --> 00:08:25,180 So we added that in there so that it was very clear that each one would require a business license. 68 00:08:25,900 --> 00:08:26,480 Thank you. 69 00:08:27,020 --> 00:08:29,320 This is a public hearing for anybody who would like to comment. 70 00:08:29,980 --> 00:08:33,260 Hearing and seeing none, we'll close the public comment period or any questions up here. 71 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,880 Hearing it, seeing none, we'll entertain a motion. 72 00:08:39,930 --> 00:08:41,870 There's a motion to approve, please vote. 73 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,560 In the post, and that item passes. 74 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,280 Moving on to item number seven, bill number 25-43 75 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:52,080 for possible action. 76 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,280 Updates the description of certain city ward boundaries, 77 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,260 wards 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, to reflect precinct number adjustments 78 00:08:58,260 --> 00:08:59,740 by the Clark County Election Department. 79 00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:03,080 This is proposed by our city clerk, Ms. Holmes. 80 00:09:05,680 --> 00:09:07,040 And I'm gonna take this one. 81 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,640 This is Deputy City Attorney Jillian Bock-Sagreblum for the record. 82 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,260 This is just a housekeeping item, the Clark County Election Department periodically reviews 83 00:09:15,260 --> 00:09:19,940 and updates its list of election precincts, including the precincts that form the basis 84 00:09:19,940 --> 00:09:22,800 of the descriptions of the war boundaries within the City of Las Vegas. 85 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:27,360 So periodically, the Election Department will combine precincts or create new precincts 86 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:28,580 based on population changes. 87 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,640 These changes won't necessarily affect each ward in every cycle. 88 00:09:33,380 --> 00:09:36,720 And they're not a change in the war boundaries, but are just a change in the way that precincts 89 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:37,180 are described. 90 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:38,500 Very good. 91 00:09:38,620 --> 00:09:38,840 Thank you. 92 00:09:39,380 --> 00:09:39,820 This. 93 00:09:42,700 --> 00:09:43,580 Thank you, Mr. Chair. 94 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,280 Just a pre-functary question. 95 00:09:46,460 --> 00:09:47,540 How often does this happen? 96 00:09:49,220 --> 00:09:50,000 This is Julian Bock. 97 00:09:50,020 --> 00:09:55,800 I believe it happens every two years prior, in the year prior to the next election. 98 00:09:56,500 --> 00:10:02,460 So they changed the fiddle with the precincts a little bit, and then we have to codify it at the 99 00:10:02,460 --> 00:10:02,600 city. 100 00:10:02,860 --> 00:10:03,400 Yes, that's right. 101 00:10:03,700 --> 00:10:03,840 Okay. 102 00:10:04,100 --> 00:10:04,480 Seems clean. 103 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,840 I'm going to say, everyone, can I ask another question, ma'am? 104 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:14,020 What triggers, I guess, the adjustments for a precinct within the wards? 105 00:10:14,180 --> 00:10:21,200 Is this something more driven by the elections department and how they're going to continue 106 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:28,080 to offer voting sites and centers to our community, or is it more, because, I don't know, it's 107 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:33,780 the first time, I guess, that I sit on recommending and see it coming through, and so I just kind 108 00:10:33,780 --> 00:10:38,600 I was wondering what triggers the adjustment and the numbers of precincts within our wards. 109 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:40,940 I don't remember it coming through before. 110 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,480 So that's why I'm kind of wondering what changed this round. 111 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:50,580 What kinds of adjustments are we seeing within our city boundaries that? 112 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,400 So anyways, I just kind of want some more background just for my own information. 113 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:57,620 Yeah, this is Jillian Boxing of them. 114 00:10:57,620 --> 00:11:04,920 These changes are basically on population changes, like maybe annexation or population shifts. 115 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:11,960 Or maybe a precinct is removed from the list because it's no longer in use. 116 00:11:12,260 --> 00:11:17,260 But it's all just shifts within the boundaries that are already determined. 117 00:11:17,580 --> 00:11:20,360 So it's basically like housekeeping for population shifts. 118 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,320 This is a public hearing for anybody who would like to comment. 119 00:11:32,100 --> 00:11:37,300 Hearing and seeing none, we'll close the public comment period and I'll entertain a motion with the other questions. 120 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:39,500 Move to approve agenda item 7. 121 00:11:39,940 --> 00:11:41,640 There's a motion to approve, please vote. 122 00:11:43,060 --> 00:11:50,680 In post and that item passes and moving on to item number 8, bill number 2025-44 for 123 00:11:50,680 --> 00:11:54,080 possible action and ordinance authorizing the issuance by the City of Las Vegas Nevada. 124 00:11:54,080 --> 00:12:01,500 about a various purpose, sorry, various purpose revenue bonds, series 2026A tax exempt. 125 00:12:01,580 --> 00:12:06,480 In the city of Las Vegas, Nevada, various purpose revenue bonds, series 2026B taxable. 126 00:12:06,660 --> 00:12:12,860 For the purpose of financing building projects, this is proposed by our chief financial officer, Miss Halsey, who's at the mic. 127 00:12:13,420 --> 00:12:15,700 Good morning, Susan Halsey for the record. 128 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:22,640 Yes, the titles that barely self-explanatory we are going to move forward with issuing about $90 million. 129 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:29,460 In bonds, it's written this way because we're not sure if they're going to be all tax exempt or some taxable. 130 00:12:29,660 --> 00:12:32,280 So it's written this way, we're hoping they're all tax exempt. 131 00:12:32,420 --> 00:12:37,100 But until we get final wording from our bond council, we won't know. 132 00:12:37,540 --> 00:12:40,700 We expect to issue either late February or early January. 133 00:12:42,100 --> 00:12:45,800 Thank you very much, and this is a public hearing for anybody who would like to comment. 134 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,440 Hearing and seeing none, are there any questions up here? 135 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:50,140 Mr. 136 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:59,040 Chair, is this for the park bonds that we discussed early on? 137 00:12:59,980 --> 00:13:02,640 Through you, Susan Hellsley, CFO. 138 00:13:03,300 --> 00:13:04,580 These are not the park bonds. 139 00:13:04,580 --> 00:13:09,100 This is the $90 million revenue bond that we're reimbursing ourselves for 140 00:13:09,100 --> 00:13:12,420 the civic plaza across the street. 141 00:13:13,560 --> 00:13:15,100 Park bonds will come a little bit later. 142 00:13:16,340 --> 00:13:18,640 Okay, thank you for the clarification. 143 00:13:20,620 --> 00:13:21,660 Any other questions? 144 00:13:21,860 --> 00:13:22,480 I'll entertain a motion. 145 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,240 Move to approve agenda item 8. 146 00:13:27,860 --> 00:13:29,120 There's a motion to approve. 147 00:13:29,380 --> 00:13:29,860 Please vote. 148 00:13:32,070 --> 00:13:33,690 And post passes. 149 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:35,860 Thank you, Miss Halsey. 150 00:13:36,860 --> 00:13:41,100 And I neglected to say that for items number 5, 2025-41, 151 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,460 that item will be heard on the January 21st, 2026 city council meeting. 152 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:49,520 Item number 6, 2025-42 will be heard on the January 21st, 2026 city council meeting. 153 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:51,820 Item number 7, 2025-43. 154 00:13:51,820 --> 00:14:14,360 That will be heard on the January 7th, 2026 city council meeting and item number 8, 2025-44 will be heard on the January 7th, 2026 city council meeting, and that brings
