Finn’s complaint against attorney under review

Former Boulder City Police Chief Thomas Finn asked Mayor Roger Tobler for a City Council agenda item for an investigation of City Attorney Dave Olsen.

Finn said he has already filed complaints with the Nevada State Bar and Nevada Commission of Ethics against Olsen.

City officials said the council is not obligated to put the item on the agenda, but Tobler said Steve Morris, who is contracted to assist the city attorney’s office on civil matters, is reviewing the complaint.

Olsen said if the council has concerns, then it should ask the attorney general to investigate him. However, he said he hasn’t done anything wrong but it’s better for Morris to review the complaint.

The state needs the parcel for the first phase of the bypass project to Railroad Pass.

By Bill Evans Boulder City Review

As the proposal to allow for a license for pet breeding, as well as the keeping of more animals than the three currently allowed by city code that came within inches of becoming law in March of this year, appears to be in some kind of limbo. After it was tabled, and has not yet been rescheduled to come back before the city council, a related case recently came before the municipal court.

By Ron Eland Boulder City Review

Jimi Hendrix, considered by many to be the greatest guitarist ever, once said of his craft, “Sometimes you want to give up the guitar, you’ll hate the guitar. But if you stick with it, you’ll be rewarded.”
