# Sparks City Council and Redevelopment Agency | November 9, 2026

The Sparks City Council meeting on November 9, 2026, unanimously approved a $423,697 contract with Mount Rose Heating and Air for the Maintenance Yard Bullpen Ventilation Improvement Project (Bid 26/27-002; PWP WA 2026-497). Staff said two bids were received, the selected bid exceeded the engineer’s estimate, and savings from the Alf Sorensen project would help fund the work. Council also unanimously approved City Manager Agreement AC-6233 through June 30, 2030; its terms reduce the potential annual merit increase from 5% to 4%, eliminate the prior $5,000–$10,000 annual performance bonus, and reduce severance beginning in FY2028. The two amendments to Operating Engineers Local 3 agreements clarified emergency-dispatch overtime rules; the skilled-workers amendment also adds a business license compliance officer classification already included in the 2026–27 budget. Staff reported no cost impact for the amendments.

The Council approved a development agreement with Silver Sage Manor for a city-owned 0.889-acre site, providing for the sale of the parcel and at least 16 new affordable senior housing units, restricted to households earning at or below 50% of area median income and affordable for 50 years; the purchase price was not stated. It also heard a Miramonte plan-development amendment concerning potable-water infrastructure options, including a pump station and/or storage tank, with public concerns raised about outdated school, traffic, fire, and flood analyses. In the Redevelopment Agency meeting, members unanimously approved the claims-and-bills report and appropriation transfers for October 13–26, 2026; no amount was stated. No vendor selection or contract award was identified for those transfers.
