Senate RESOLUTION—Designating certain members of the Senate as regular and alternate members of the Legislative Commission.
Resolved by the Senate of the State of Nevada, That
pursuant to the provisions of NRS 218.660 and the Joint Standing
Rules of the Legislature, Senators Randolph J. Townsend, Ann
O’Connell, Mike McGinness, Alice Costandina Titus, Valerie
Wiener and Maggie Carlton are designated as the regular Senate
members of the Legislative Commission; and be it further
Resolved, That Senators Mark Amodei and Dean A. Rhoads
are designated as the first and second alternate members,
respectively, for Senator Randolph J. Townsend; Senators Dennis
Nolan and Raymond C. Shaffer are designated as the first and
second alternate members, respectively, for Senator Ann
O’Connell; Senators Warren B. Hardy II and Maurice E.
Washington are designated as the first and second alternate
members, respectively, for Senator Mike McGinness; Senators
Terry Care and Michael A. Schneider are designated as the first and
second alternate members, respectively, for Senator Alice
Costandina Titus; Senators Terry Care and Joseph M. Neal are
designated as the first and second alternate members, respectively,
for Senator Valerie Wiener; and Senators Terry Care and Joseph M.
Neal are designated as the first and second alternate members,
respectively, for Senator Maggie Carlton; and be it further
Resolved, That the procedure for requesting an alternate
member to replace a regular member during his absence at a
meeting must be as follows:
1. The Secretary of the Legislative Commission shall establish
a record of service of alternate members at meetings of the
Legislative Commission and shall maintain a list of the alternate
members for each individual Senator or group of Senators. Each list
must contain a numerical designation in ascending order for each
alternate member on the list. The initial sequence in which the
alternate members must be listed must correspond to their
designation as alternates in this resolution.
2. If a regular member of the Legislative Commission is unable
to attend a scheduled meeting of the Legislative Commission and
notifies the Secretary of the Legislative Commission, the Secretary
shall request the alternate member with the lowest numerical
designation on the appropriate list to replace the regular member at
the meeting. If the alternate member does not agree to serve, the
Secretary shall make the same request of the alternate member with
the next higher numerical designation on the list, and so on through
the list until an alternate member agrees to replace the regular
member.
3. An alternate member who agrees to replace a regular
member at a meeting of the Legislative Commission loses the
numerical designation he had on the appropriate list at the time he
was requested to serve. The Secretary of the Legislative
Commission shall, when the alternate member agrees to replace the
regular member, assign to that alternate member the highest
numerical designation on the appropriate list. At the same time, the
Secretary shall also reduce by one the numerical designation in the
appropriate list to those alternate members who have higher
numerical designations in the appropriate list than the alternate
member who has agreed to serve.
4. An alternate member who is requested to replace a regular
member at a meeting of the Legislative Commission, but who does
not agree to replace the regular member, does not lose the
numerical designation he had on the appropriate list at the time of
the request.
