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 Rules of the Legislature,

 Senators Mark A. James, Mark Amodei, Maurice E. Washington, Michael

 A. Schneider, Valerie Wiener and Alice Costandina Titus are designated

 as the regular Senate members of the Legislative Commission; and be it

 further

   Resolved, That Senators William R. O’Donnell and Ann O’Connell

 are designated as the first and second alternate members, respectively, for

 Senator Mark A. James; Senators Lawrence E. Jacobsen and Mike

 McGinness are designated as the first and second alternate members,

 respectively, for Senator Mark Amodei; and Senators Randolph J.

 Townsend and Dean A. Rhoads are designated as the first and second

 alternate members, respectively, for Senator Maurice E. Washington; and

 be it further

   Resolved, That Senators Terry Care and Maggie Carlton are

 designated as the first and second alternate members, respectively, for

 Senators Michael A. Schneider, Valerie Wiener and Alice Costandina

 Titus; 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 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.
