That works for me. Thank you for the explanation – I was not at all aware of the process and will try to be on the program next year end!. I think because the processing of last years payment
was overlooked for several months – and Darlene is no longer here – the decision was made to process this years payment without the knowledge of how the process is supposed to work. I
will make sure everyone involved is aware of how this should go.
Thanks again!

Hi Susan,
Thanks for the follow up. Traditionally, the Stadium Authority meets in the fall to approve the reimbursement for the prior fiscal year. My understanding for the timing is to ensure that the
account balance is accurate at the end of the fiscal year to ensure the reimbursement amount does not exceed what was collected and available. Usually, the County requests the draft
minutes and/or video from the meeting before cutting the check.
Since the check has been cut, we can agendize the item for ratification and approval of the FY23 reimbursement when the Stadium Authority meets this fall. We can then forward the approval
documents to you after for the record. Does that work for you?
Thanks,
Calli

Calli,
The check for $59,160.32 when out in February. The check that went out yesterday was for $71,385.40. The detail is provided – not sure how this program works but I was told to issue a
check so we could account for it in FY23. I guess if there is a disagreement about the amount due we can deal with that as it arises. If you have information that would be helpful to me about
this program I am all ears as I inherited it and am flying a bit blind.
Thanks,

Hi Susan,
Thank you so much for this information.
In September 2022, the Stadium Authority approved the FY22 payment of $59,160.32. Is this the check that was cut yesterday?
The Stadium Authority hasn’t met yet to approve the FY23 payment.
Thanks,
Calli

Good afternoon,
We are working to get the Washoe County Stadium Authority together for their annual meeting. We are expecting an item from the Aces for reimbursements made at the ballfield, pursuant
to the settlement agreement with the County (Sec. 3.2). Can you please send over the balance that is due? I’ve attached what you provided last year, which was perfect for the meeting.
If you need any additional information, please let us know. Thank you!

Ironhide Seating Restoration.pdf
Hi Nic,
Attached is the Invoice for $145,237.52 for the Seat restoration that was done to all the stadium seating. We were able to utilize the Ironhide
Seating Restoration company to epoxy the seats to fix the extreme fading/cracking that had occurred due to our harsh weather. This was a great
alternative to replacing all the seats and have been happy with the results.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,

Hi Chris and Stacey!
I’m following up to see if you could send (1) a brief description and total cost of the improvement project for which the Aces are seeking
reimbursement and (2) copies of the invoice for the project.
We will need this to prepare a staff report for the payment agenda item on October 18th. I’ve attached a copy of last year’s agenda if that helps.
