  • Review and Discussion Regarding the 2017 Legislative Session with Possible Direction to Staff. (For Possible Action)
    AGENDA ITEM# 12 SUN VALLEY GENERAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT DATE: 2-3-17 TO: Board of Trustees FROM: Darrin Price – General Manager SUBJECT: Review and discussion regarding the 2017 Legislative Session with possible direction to staff. (for possible action). Every two years the Nevada Legislature meets. 2017 is here and it’s that time again. In 2014, the District cancelled its Lobbying contract with Fred Hillerby. At that time the total expenses for the lobbying contract was $1,650.00 dollars a month year round (as to include committee meetings that can and do meet when the session is closed and networking). In February of 2015, the board unanimously approved the General Manager “to act in the lobbying capacity” for the District. Per this direction I have started to assemble a team to assist me with monitoring, tracking, networking, and attending sessions, committee meetings, and general networking to establish relationships with both legislators and their staff. I registered myself, Jennifer, and Maddy as paid lobbyist for this session. The cost to register is $300.00 dollars per person, a total of $900.00 dollars. As a registered lobbyist you can track 10 bills via NELLIS. NELLIS is the Nevada Electronic Legislative Information System. It allows for PLT: What is Personalized Legislative Tracking (PLT)? · PLT allows you to subscribe to BDRs, bills, and budgets that are of interest to you, and subsequently tag and create notes on your subscriptions. · The advantage of PLT is that you will receive immediate notifications of hearings, a daily status notification, and have access to tailored, exportable reports for the subscriptions you have chosen to track.

  • The 2017 Nevada Legislative Session Review & Report Card
    The 2017 Nevada Legislative Session Review & Report Card by Daniel Honchariw Nevada Policy Research Institute 1 Preface n several respects, the 2017 Nevada Legislature was Ithe natural result of its 2015 predecessor. That year, politicians who’d campaigned as “conservatives” won control of both chambers as well as the governor’s mansion. Yet they then proceeded, forthwith, to explicitly ignore a powerful anti- tax message voters had sent just the previous fall. Siding with an ostensibly popular governor who will never run for reelection again, they imposed upon Nevadans a largely un-conservative and economically destructive agenda, the keystone of which was an ill-advised gross-receipts tax.1 Today labeled the state “commerce” tax, the measure demolished any remaining claims made by either major political party to defend small business,2 free markets or Nevada taxpayers. Though Nevada voters had overwhelmingly rejected a similar ballot measure by a 79-to-21 percent margin,3 Gov. Brian Sandoval, once reelected, exerted maximum political muscle to drive the ill-conceived tax into law. The broad consensus among tax economists that gross receipts taxes are more destructive than alternatives, and largely serve already- powerful lobbying interests, was ignored. After the debacle, ordinary Nevada taxpayers had little reason to trust Republicans to represent their fiscal interests. Such demoralization likely contributed to Democrats’ recapture of both chambers of the 2017 Legislature. It is to ensure that Nevada’s elected officials are held to account for the votes they cast that NPRI publishes this legislative report card after every session. Regularly, NPRI’s Review and Report Card has proven to hold exceptional predictive power in subsequent elections.
