Council tees up leash vote — again

In an otherwise quiet meeting this week, the city council, with Mayor Joe Hardy absent due to attendance at the meeting of the Nevada League of Cities, with Mayor Pro Tem Sherri Jorgensen presiding teed up a possible vote on two of the most contentious items on the council’s plate in to past couple of years.

Council approves allotments for Liberty Ridge

When the story from last week’s issue of the Boulder City Review concerning the approval of a temporary map for the coming Liberty Ridge development hit social media, the outcry was swift.

New plan for former Vons

For several years, the former Vons building on Boulder City Parkway has sat empty. But a big step was taken last week to change that.

Council gives Thomas high six-month marks

At just more than six months on the job, City Manager Ned Thomas does not need to be worried about keeping the gig as city council members gathered Wednesday morning for an earlier-than-normal performance evaluation and every comment from every member present (Councilwoman Sherri Jorgensen was absent) could be fairly characterized as stellar.

City votes to join regional council

More RV storage? Council approves appraisal for possible future project

The old Vons building is not the only place in the mix for future RV storage. (See story on page 1.) The city is also eyeing a possible future facility in the area where Veterans Memorial Drive and Yucca Street come together.

Say hello to Liberty Ridge

So, no more Tract 350. Not the project but rather the name.

City pleased with Nevada Way project

It’s been a few weeks since the completion of the roadwork on Nevada Way, and according to the city, they’re happy with the finished product.

Decrease in tourists could affect budget

Eagle-eyed followers of city government may have noticed multiple references by city officials over the past year to expect shortfalls in the Boulder City budget over the next few years. It is a fact of life for city staff, and the big decrease in tourism to the region is poised to make the situation even more dire.
