Debated But Not Resolved
NRS engineering title compliance — Chairperson Honey asked whether the city obtained verification from the state engineering board that "Engineer" in the job title complies with Nevada state law. HR Business Partner Cody Freeman said no verification had been done yet but noted the city has other "Engineer" titles without problems — State board verification must be completed; approval is contingent on this check
What to Watch
No spending items.
State engineering board verification — The Building Systems Engineer title approval is conditional. The city must confirm with the Nevada state engineering board that using "Engineer" in this job title does not violate NRS regulations. This verification must happen before the position title officially takes effect.
