Nevada Pre-Session Update Activity Heats Up


Rocky Finseth

The Nevada Legislature is schedule to convene on February 7, 2011, in Carson City.  Leading up to the start to the Nevada Legislature’s session on February 7, UTA Nevada Lobbyist Rocky Finseth explains that the UTA membership has been actively involved in several bill draft discussions which are going to have an impact on the Nevada Mediation Program.  BDR 668 is the legislative vehicle being used to fix some of the issues which have arisen and UTA Board member Michael Brooks presented testimony on behalf of the Association at a recent meeting convened by the former Speaker of the Assembly and chief architect of the program, Barbara Buckley, along with newly elected Assemblyman Jason Frierson, in discussions with interested homeowners, lawyers, bankers and trustees designed to address some of the challenges facing all parties operating within the scope and parameters of the program.

As a result, UTA members should expect to see legislation for this coming session addressing some of our concerns as well as those of other industries involved in the Mediation Program.
