The Reno County Commission will meet on Wed., Oct. 9, 2024, at 9 a.m. in the Veterans Room in the Reno County Courthouse.

Agenda items include authorizing bonds up to $1.45 million to construct a sheriff’s department shooting range and $450,000 each for new fire district buildings in Nickerson and Turon.

Proposed updates to the county’s vehicle use policy in the wake of an August accident in which a county employee was killed will be discussed. The updates include adding cell phone usage and the safe operation of towing and trailers to the policy, license validity and accident reporting requirements, among other changes.

The Reno County Tag Department is asking for an additional employee.

The commissioners will consider a conditional use permit request to rezone a property just west of the intersection of 17th Ave. and Wilshire Dr. for an automobile repair business.

The commission will also take up a request from the county’s Planning Department for text amendments to the April 2016 edition of the Reno County Zoning Regulations regarding solar energy projects.

The agenda and supporting documents are published on the Reno County Commission’s website.

The Reno County Commission meets on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month and the fifth Wednesday if one falls in the month.
