PUBLIC NOTICE OF CANCELLATION OF REGULAR MEETING

Palomino Valley General Improvement DistrictScheduled for August 20, 2026

The Palomino Valley General Improvement District (“PVGID”) hereby provides public notice that the regular meeting scheduled for August 20, 2026 is canceled due to the Bug and Stallion Fire and the State of Emergency declared by the Governor of Nevada pursuant to NRS Chapter 414.

At the time of this notice, portions of the Palomino Valley area are under evacuation or restricted access, and emergency conditions may continue through the scheduled meeting date. In accordance with NRS 241 (Nevada Open Meeting Law), the Board may cancel a regular meeting when circumstances make holding the meeting unsafe or impracticable.

This cancellation is necessary to ensure the safety of residents, staff, and emergency personnel, and to avoid public travel or congregation within an active wildfire and evacuation zone. No statutory deadlines or required annual actions fall in August, and the cancellation will not affect compliance with Nevada law.

The next regular meeting of the PVGID Board of Trustees will occur on September 17, 2026, unless otherwise noticed.


We would also like to commend our two GID employees, Shawn Kelly and Will Fragie. for their outstanding efforts in keeping our valley residents supplied with water during this emergency. Thank you Shawn and Will for a job well done.

If you have any questions please contact me by responding to this email.

Stay safe and see you in September.

Palomino Valley GID Monthly Meetings

Public Meetings are held on the third Thursday of each month at the Washoe County Regional Shooting Facility located at 21555 Pyramid Highway. Meetings start at 6:00 p.m.

Trashcans In Roadways

The PVGID asks that residents place their trashcans and recycle cans off the roadway, beyond the ditch/swale. We have also put in a request with Waste Management asking that the drivers place the trashcans back off the roadway.  Trashcans on the roadways or in the ditches/swales hamper the GID’s road maintenance efforts.

Road Maintenance and Repair Requests

To notify the PVGID of road maintenance needs, please send an email to palominovalleygid@gmail.com. Please include "Road Maintenance Request" in the subject line, and include the name of the road, the approximate location, and a brief description of the problem. These requests will be forwarded to the Operations Manager. 

Urgent Requests

The palominovalleygid@gmail.com email account is monitored on a daily basis. To notify the PVGID of an urgent problem, please call the Operations Manager at (775) 848-6788.

About Us

The Palomino Valley General Improvement District (PVGID) is a quasi-municipal corporation responsible for maintaining certain roads in the Palomino Valley/Warm Springs area. This includes most roads in the area, with the major exceptions of Pyramid Highway and Winnemucca Ranch Road. Funding for the PVGID comes from property taxes assessed on properties within the District, as well as a portion of the sales and use taxes collected statewide.
The PVGID was formed by Washoe County on July 28, 1973, pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 318. Its original scope of services included sewerage, drainage and recreational facilities in addition to roadways (which were originally intended to be paved). Changes in development plans for the District and related reductions in projected revenues for the PVGID resulted in a reduction of its scope to "operations, repair and maintenance" of certain roadways within the District's boundaries.
The PVGID maintains 92.8 miles of road, of which 19.08 miles are asphalt-surfaced and the remainder are unsurfaced. Maintenance activities are primarily performed by PVGID employees (currently there are only two employees) using PVGID-owned equipment.
The PVGID is governed by an elected, but unpaid, board consisting of five Trustees (see current roster below). Trustees are elected to staggered four-year terms. Elections are held in even-numbered years on the same ballot as other federal, state and local offices. Vacant seats may be filled by appointment by the remaining Trustees, with an election to follow in the next even-numbered year.
