Open Space Advisory Committee chooses leadership, eyes 22 acres

Leadership of Carson City's Open Space Advisory Committee was chosen at its latest meeting, with Bruce Scott retained as chairman for another year.

Howard Reidl was selected as vice chairman, replacing Patricia Lincoln.

The panel, which makes recommendations to the Board of Supervisors on open-space issues and recently inherited similar duties of the defunct Carson River Advisory Committee, also heard about the status of prospects for a Potter property transaction involving 22 acres.

The property, near the southwest corner of Ormsby Boulevard and Kings Canyon Road on Carson City's west side, is undergoing review for a possible land-exchange transaction, according to reports.

The committee's most recent session was Monday evening. Meetings this year are slated for April 15, June 17-18, Aug. 19, Oct. 21 and Dec. 16.
