Wildlife commissioners’ review of director expected to be uneventful
Thursday, Nov. 13, 1997 | 11:28 a.m.
Molini, 51, division administrator for 15 years, says it will be his opportunity to discuss his performance and future goals with the nine-member Board of Wildlife Commissioners.
"I think things have gone fairly well in the past year," he said. "I'm not looking at this as any big deal. No one's asking for my resignation."
Commission Chairman Don Cavin of Hawthorne said he, too, expects the review in Reno to be routine.
"We'll just be talking about performance," he said. "We don't have any specific item to discuss. We don't have any real control over the director. If we have a problem we have to go to the governor. But I don't see any major problems."
Molini actually answers to Pete Morros, director of the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources.
Commissioner Jelindo Tiberti of Las Vegas said he has no major issues to take up with Molini in the personnel session.
"There is always something in a review that you can comment on good or bad, but I have no major heartburn," he said. "I think he's done a good job."
Longtime Molini critic Cecil Fredi, president of Hunter's Alert in Las Vegas, said he doesn't expect any significant changes from the personnel session either.
"It will be the same old dog and pony show," he said.
But Fredi said that if you take away the politics and personalities, and just look at the state of the wild game populations in Nevada compared to a decade ago, there has been a decline.
While a seven-year drought that lasted through the 1993-94 winter is partly to blame, the recovery of wildlife populations hasn't occurred in the past three wet years as expected, he said.
