David Bobzien’s move to director of the Nevada Governor’s Office of Energy has opened up a slot on the Reno City Council. Rather than hold a public vote, which councilmembers said would be cost-prohibitive, the council last week decided on an application and appointment process.
The deadline to apply is Friday at 5 p.m. More than 50 people have already submitted applications to hold the seat.
Five candidates will be selected by councilmembers at the Wednesday, February 13, council meeting. Those selections will be posted online.
A public interview process will be held the next day at 5:30 p.m. for a meet-and-greet at City Hall. Then, on Friday, February 15 at 2 p.m., councilmembers will interview the candidates and make their decision.
