NV ENERGY - NV ENERGY GAS CONVERSION PROJECT

At the Rainbow Bend HOA Board meeting on Tuesday, August 27, 2024, a representative from NV Energy provided an update on the project. The project for the gas conversion will be scheduled in 42 phases which have started at West End of Rainbow Bend. NV Energy has been working on several streets  working to convert the propane to gas.   NV energy plans on converting the propane to gas on all streets. 

About 1 - 2 weeks prior to accessing your home, they will notify home owners by placing a tag on your door to schedule the date to convert or change out your appliances. At that time, you will need to call NV Energy to schedule.  In addition, NV Energy has requested if you are out of town during this project, to contact them with a contact person to make arrangements to have NV Energy / Brycon obtain access to your home to do the conversion or install the appliances.

NV Energy is still waiting on Air Conditioners  to come in.

Brycon Corp  has started to convert/replace the appliances and switch over the fuel supply for some of the houses.  They will utilize temporary propane tanks as needed so no house will ever be without one of the fuels.  

The Gas Conversion Project started in July and is progressing.  See the Rainbow Bend Appliance Conversion Project Map which has been placed on the Bulletin Board in the Rainbow Bend Clubhouse lobby or below is a .pdf copy of the map to see which phase your home is in.

If you have not had your home inspected, Brycon will come out again to inspect your home and inform you what appliance will be replaced or converted.  Contact NV Energy by email to get this scheduled.     

For questions contact NV  Energy and include your full address by email at Lockwood@nvenergy.com.

LOCKWOOD NEW COMMUNITY SENIOR CENTER PROJECT

On-site work will start on Tuesday, September 3, 2024.  At this time they do not have  a start date for the utility work  They have to coordinate with NV Energy on lots of that work so they don’t have a hard schedule on the closures of Peri Ranch Road yet.  But this work is expected to be short in duration (like a couple of days at a time).

A pathway has been made for all students walking to and from Hillside Elementary School.  Storey County RSOs and Deputies will be there in the am and pm trips.
