CARSON CITY — Gov. Brian Sandoval on Wednesday summoned Nevada lawmakers to Carson City early next week for a special legislative session to consider financing for a 65,000-seat football stadium and convention center expansion in Las Vegas.
The session won’t include funding for education saving accounts because of time constraints, though the governor said he will make that a budget priority when the 2017 Legislature convenes in February. But Sandoval next week will call for a “minor adjustment” to the lodging tax to fund a “temporary” solution supporting public education through the next two-year budget cycle to cover potential shortfalls.
