"We're bringing people in from 38 states this year, and three provinces in Canada. Itcertainly is a nationally-acclaimed event." The new Corvettes were designed to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the company, which began in 1952. Corvette's first car was a 1953 model, released in the last quarter of 1952.

The 50th Anniversary Special Edition cars will have special wheels, insignias, paint, interior and wheels, said Jack Stanko, owner of Champion Auto Home Life Renters Business Americon Family Mutual plain the existing animal center is not well- or well-ventilated, allowing diseases to spread easily among animals. As part of the preliminary agreement, Reno would turn over the land and existing building to the county. The city's animal control employees would be transferred to the county and the city's equipment and vehicles used for animal control would be given to the county. The Longley Lane site and building is worth $1.4 million. If the city gave the site to the county, it would not be able to use the extra land for future needs, such Car and Driver magazine reported Chevrolet plans to make as many as 10,000 of the burgundy 50th-Anniversary Special Edition cars, depending on demand.

But Stanko said he got a tentative allocation report stating the company plans to make far fewer, between 4,000 and 5,000 of the special editions out of about 30,000 Corvettes next year. "Just to give you an idea of how limited the special edition is going to be, we're only going to get four the first half of the year," he said. "There are actually 4,200 Chevrolet dealers in the United States, so some dealers are probably only going to get one for the Stanko said he has no idea what the car will cost, but said most will be bought as an investment, not for transport.

Staff recommended the city negotiate which government would be responsible for the estimated $185,000 it would cost to transfer the property to the county, The equipment that would be given to the county is worth $219,000. The $200,000 in the city's animal shelter fund also would be given to the county. The city would continue to run the existing shelter until the new one is complete.

The debut will be the kickoff for the National Corvette Caravan tour, which will travel around the country until it gets to Nashville, next year for an anniversary celebration, according to a press release. Hot August Nights will be the only place where people will be able to take a photo with the car this year, since it will not be displayed between Reno and Nashville, Saville said. Walter said the debut puts Hot August Nights more securely into the category of a national event.

Fees collected outside the contaminated area will decrease slightly. The fees are based on water consumption, but are attached to property taxes. Water rates charged by the Truckee Meadows 5 Water Authority and other Washoe County water purveyors will be unaffected. Officials from Reno and Sparks and a representative of the Silver Legacy Eldorado urged commissioners to delay or minimize the fee hike, in part because a detailed plan on how to deal with PCE pollution has yet to be approved by the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection.

The city also can ask the county commission to declare the public lands surrounding the neighborhood a congested area, which would prohibit firearm use.

Efforts thus far have focused on treating water supplies from five public wells that contain high levels of PCE.

With money from the new fees, the county can begin to actually correct the pollution problem, officials said. Any delay in attaching increased fees to this year's property tax would in turn delay cleanup efforts for another year, said Jim Ford, a hydrogeologist with the remediation district. Minor L.
