Nye County Commission to weigh zoning changes, debt and transit issues
Nye County commissioners will hear a zoning bill tied to special-use permits, then review 2026-27 debt and capital plans for Pahrump and the pool district.

Nye County commissioners will take up a public hearing Tuesday at 10 a.m. in Pahrump on Bill No. 2026-01, a zoning measure that would amend Title 17, Chapter 17.10 on special use permits and affect how future development moves through the county’s land-use process.
The regular meeting was posted July 16 at 7:34 a.m. in the county agenda center and will be held as a joint session of the Nye County Board of Commissioners, Board of Highway Commissioners, Licensing and Liquor Board, Board of Health, the governing body of the unincorporated Town of Pahrump, the governing bodies of Beatty, Gabbs and Manhattan, and the Board of Trustees for the Pahrump Pool District.

Bill No. 2026-01 was listed earlier this year in a Jan. 29 agenda item, and Tuesday’s hearing is the next formal step in the county’s review. The proposal targets Nye County Code Title 17, the county’s comprehensive land use planning and zoning code, with the most specific change aimed at Chapter 17.10 on special use permits. Planning matters in Pahrump move through the county’s planning process and the Pahrump Regional Planning Commission under Nevada law.
Commissioners will also discuss and deliberate the Debt Management Policy Statement and Capital Improvement Plan for the Town of Pahrump for Fiscal Year 2026-2027, along with the same package for the Pahrump Pool District. Nye County produces Debt Management Policy Statements, Indebtedness Reports and Capital Improvement Schedules under NRS 350.013, with similar annual debt and capital improvement reviews for the county and its sub-entities in fiscal years 2024-2025 and 2025-2026.
The agenda also includes infrastructure grants, public transit and K9 retirement items.
